Epic Of Caterpillar

[Day 52]

Today I woke up pretty early in the morning because I wanted to do a lot of things.

First of all, I wanted to finally insert more Orbs on my body.

The new gems that will decorate my body will be the [Ancient Mystical Ice Phoenix Orb of Forbidden Wisdom] and the [Beastly Orb of the Thundering Chimera].

The first one appeared inside of my body, closer to my heart, I had to activate [Mystic Eyes] to see how it looked.

It was a beautiful pale blue colored crystal ball of around the size of a cherry. It had a powerful concentration of magic inside, which manifested into a small snowfall inside the Orb.

The second orb appeared on my belly button and it was of a beautiful yellow-colored, every time I touched it, small sparks would come out from it.

As I infused magic on both orbs, I could feel an incredibly power building up, flowing through my entire body, as if it were being purified by these magical energies.

Just as I was wondering how many of these powerful gems I could implant on my body, a System message popped out of thin air.

[You have reached the max amount of implanted [Orbs]

[From this point onward, if you try to implant any more [Orbs] your body may not support the pressure of its power and will explode]

"Oh…"

It seems that I got to the point that my own body is hindering my growth. The only way to keep increasing in power is by evolving, and for this, I need to reach max level.

I've noticed that the required EXP per level has exponentially increased quite a lot.

I've read somewhere on Redgaria books that this has to do with "Life Walls" which is what "Levels" were called before the System appeared in this world.

Life Walls are the current limits of one body, it's easier to break your limits while you're on a low level of power, but as you increase your strength, the Life Walls become wider and sturdier, needing more "Life Force" which is what EXP was called before.

By slaying another being, one's body naturally steals the other Life Force, but not entirely, as some are instantly absorbed by the world to nourish itself.

Even Undead, Ghosts and plants possess Life Force. However, because plants are grown from the ground, they are part of the world and we cannot get EXP from killing plants, at least not the natural plants.

This means that as I keep getting exponentially stronger, getting to the next level will be quite difficult.

I will just need to slay stronger monsters, even stronger ones. This world is vast and there are many things for me to devour.

For now, I will try out my new skills and catch some beasts, I've wanted to create ground and air cavalry since long ago.

Making Familiars for each soldier would be too costly, as I would need to both produce for food and mounts.

In the end, its way simpler to catch a big number of strong monsters and tame them into submission.

I silently left my wives sleeping and went outside from the window.

Several meters over the town, I activated my [Triple Elemental Winged Golden Emerald Exoskeleton Armor] which I previously infused on the [Ice Phoenix] Orb.

The Golden Beetle Exoskeleton obtained a beautiful pale blue color with several decorations resembling ice spikes on my back.

My shoulders resembled the faces of two furious Ice Phoenix which had Golden Beetle horns on their foreheads.

This armor also came with a beautiful dress made of blue feathers, which easily fused with my own equipment.

My previous Butterfly wings transformed into four golden and pale blue colored wings, of around five meters each. They were incredibly sturdy and could take even the strongest of my attacks.

Lastly, the helmet resembled once again a furious Ice Phoenix with three Golden Beetle horns on its forehead, each horn possessed a small blue gem.

As I flew towards the Fifth Layer, I noticed how my new four wings left a tail made of ice on the skies.

I quickly found several [Armored Bears] and [Two-Headed Crystal Horses] of different variants. Using my magic-infused threads, I easily captured them on place.

As I flew around the forest, a big pile of struggling monsters began to form, creating a hilarious scene.

Several hours passed and I ended up capturing 54 beasts, which included [Armored Bears], [Two-Headed Crystal Horses] and even some [Giant Golden Beetle].

Although the size of Giant Golden Beetle may be too much for most of my soldiers, they will be ideal for [Giant] type beings like Nesiphae, Ganjo, Truhan and even some of the Giant Undead Warriors who have evolved enough.

I wanted to capture some airborne cavalry too and discovered a big lair of brown-colored Griffons near the Ancient Dragon Spikes mountains. They were 40 and I ate 6, so I captured 34.

[You gained 322700 EXP]

[You gained one level!] [LEVEL 55/70   EXP 263899/588000]

[You learned the following Skills]

[Griffon Chimeric Storming Claws]

[Dignified Pressure of the Ancient Chimera]

Griffon meat was quite fine, it tasted better than Earth's chicken, but nothing too special, there was some lion meat taste in there, but that's it.

When I had the monsters ready, I quickly made them all my slaves with the [Blood Pact Ring] Skill.

[You successfully made a Blood Pact with several [Armored Bear] species, [Two-Headed Crystal Horse] species, [Giant Golden Beetle] species, and [Ferocious Storming Griffon] species] [120/120]

However, there were 24 monsters left without making a pact, because I reached my max quantity. I thought about making them normal servants instead, but I came with a different solution.

I used my [Illusive and Hypnotizing Charm] and brainwashed all the beast into thinking that I was their pack leader, at the end, it wasn't as far as conventional enslavement.

This is a pretty good enslavement method for beings that are immune to normal enslavement like most of the Noble Humans.

I woke all the sleeping beasts with a strong mental shock and commanded them to go towards the Kingdom.

Seeing more than one hundred different monsters walking together like a pack was quite the spectacle.

When we entered the Kingdom, most people became alarmed, the Giant Undead Guardians started to stop us but after seeing me, they quickly stopped in place and apologized.

All these beasts will stay on an expanded cave area that I made long ago on the side of my mountain. It's very wide and there is an incredible amount of space underground that was never used, now it's the perfect time.

I also told the Rin Sisters to quickly make a team of experienced monster caretakers and to assign various Royal Knight Teams to these monsters. Each one can only pick one beast, there will be specialized tests for people that are more skilled in riding flying beasts and others that are more skilled in riding ground beasts.

My wives were awake by now, so I gifted a special [Emperor] Class beast to each one.

Nesiphae received a Giant Golden Beetle Emperor, I specifically choose the one with the highest level and stats. It was impressive seeing her giant body sitting perfectly fine on the lap of such a colossal monster. Nesiphae named her Beetle; Bento.

I gave Zehe a beautiful Two-Headed Crystal Horse Empress, the horse had several jewels on each of its heads, resembling a beautiful crown. Zehe loved her new pet and she caressed it a lot. She named her horse Manami.

For Brontes, I gave a strong and beautiful Silver Armored Bear Emperor, it was five meters tall and it had a very wide back, perfect for Brontes tall and heavy body. She liked it a lot and ended up rubbing its belly. Brontes named her bear; Kenta.

I also gave Gaby a bear, this time it was a Flaming Copper Armored Bear, it wasn't as strong as Bronte's one, but it had an abnormal amount of Speed for a such a big bear, so it was quite special. She immediately began to mount it and run around with it. Gaby named her bear; Taro.

And last but not least, I gave Rimuru the strongest Griffon, which was an Emperor. Its body was tall and had a dignified and majestic aura, it also had golden fur on its neck. I gave a Griffon to Rimuru because she is the most accustomed to flying. Rimuru named her Griffon; Shouta.

As for me, I decided to keep my Dark Flare Draconic Lion, although I don't really need a mount at all, it feels good to sit in one. I named him Mao because after evolving, his entire fur became black with small red stripes.

After having a quick bath with my wives and breakfast, I received a Direct Message from the remaining exploration teams, they will arrive tomorrow morning. It seems that the Dungeons I assigned them to were quite far, so they took way more time than the rest on completing them and coming back, and came across different monsters that they had to fight on the way.

I was beginning to worry about them, and I had already started to spread more of my flesh and slime minions around the fifth layer, but I'm glad I didn't have to look for them at the end.

Now that I had that issue resolved, I decided to finally interrogate the Noble and the humans we left alive, they should be being held on the Castle Undergrounds.

Well, the interrogations went as easy as I thought, the Noble put some resistance at first insulting me and calling me a horrible demon, etc.

He even asked me for his son, which I replied with a malicious smile while saying "It was very tasty".

The old man almost fainted from my response and began to freak out. I quickly grabbed his head with my threads and came closer to him, I made sure for him to carefully look directly at my eyes.

After some seconds, he was completely brainwashed and called me "My beautiful Empress" and "Mistress". He became very submissive and resembled a masochist.

He wasn't a beautiful woman, so it was quite disgusting when he tried to lick my heels, I gave him a nice kick on the balls to never try that again.

Afterward, I extracted all its information, even from when he was just a small child.

The real name of this fat old man was Albert Abilieu and his beloved son was Edward Abilieu, although they hold some power on the Kingdom, they weren't influential enough to change this directly, but I still think that he could come in handy.

He was so worried about his son because he needed him to marry another Noble House and increase his riches, he didn't love his son at all.

I'll explain things as simple as possible regarding the Athetosea Kingdom.

The conflict that is currently going on is between two groups composed of several of the richest and influential Noble houses.

There is the "Exploiting" Group, which is composed of several Noble Houses that want to prioritize gaining money and exploiting its people.

And then, there is the "War" Group, simply put, they want to prioritize the production of military power while absorbing small Demi-Human Kingdoms, they also like enslaving the most.

Alice family which is the Lomanie Noble House is one of the top five most influential houses on the War Group, while the Abilieu Family is only a small not so rich Noble House on the Exploiting Group.

If they even go to a war, it's easy to imagine that the War Group will win because they probably have better-developed soldiers and Knights Families, while the Exploiting Group will only hire Adventurers to fight for them.

And it's unrealistic to think that Talented and Veteran Royal Knight will loose to a group of trashy adventurers that were once just plebeians. Talent is everything in this world's Human Society.

Now that I know about this inside information, I could use Alice in more ways than I thought.

I could easily disguise her and make her resemble her human form with a solidified cape of Illusion Magic, while being commanded by one of my flesh and slime minions, I could easily pull some strings.

The Old Noble is not as valuable as Alice, so I could just eat him, however, he's still more valuable alive than dead.

I could easily make him contact more nobles and with my flesh and slime minions, brainwash those nobles too, slowly spreading my influence across the several Noble Houses, until the war breaks out and the entire battlefield is just my chess table, I will know everything that is going to happen and both groups will be on my command.

Then, I can just easily pick every tasty warrior as a quick snack, and have the Hero of Raging Winds as the main menu.

Afterward, I will make one of the groups win and conquer the entire Kingdom for myself, although I need to do this while laying low, so the other Kingdoms don't realize the changes.

I decided to speak up this plan with the Rin Sisters and my wives, and with their help, I ended up polishing it even more.

Alice also agreed on my order without a moment of hesitation, leaving her hate for her family completely aside.

Good, everything will to according to the plan.

And if not, I will just force them to go according to my plan, I have various tools at my disposal.

However, before I can even start this, I need to absorb the Aquaria Kingdom, which should be a breeze by now. It will work as a nice test.

Satisfied with my plans, I left the humans alone and went to train on the Training Grounds with my people.

Everyone worked very hard today, even the five humans were getting stronger and seemed to have no limit on their growth.

The Archer Woman and the Protector Girl were quickly leveling with my "Cheat Training", which is just summoning thousands of Undead Soldiers to fight, which also gives them precious real battle experience.

Evan training has been resumed and the amount of times that he's almost dead per battle has been reduced to four!

He's slowly getting accustomed, should I increase the difficulty? I will when the amount of times that he's almost dead reduces to two.

Because I can't bother myself healing him all the time, I left some flesh and slime minions healing him every time he's about to die. 

The Amazon Woman has become good friends with the "Beefy Girls" team, which is composed of the Hellhound, the Wind Wyvern Woman and Jorogumo. And she is getting intense training from the trio.

Oh, and while talking about those girls, it seems that Jorogumo is on a relationship with the Hellhound girl. I really didn't expect that. At least not so fast.

They went from rivalry to friendship to full-on sexual partners quite fast. But I am no one to judge that, I'm happy if they're happy. Although they kiss each other in front of everyone from time to time, which is rather arousing for me, but for the rest is quite embarrassing.

Anyways, moving to the Black-Haired Swordsman, he has been getting pretty strong thanks to Kizuato harsh training and Palami technique training. His movements are becoming swifter and he has already learned some Techniques directly from Kizuato and Palami, showing his inner talent.

Actually, most humans have this "talent" which is the ability to quickly learn techniques taught to them and even swiftly adapt to new weapon types. I'm abusing this "talent" to its full potential on them, making everyone test and practice with different weapons and techniques every day.

Today, the Harpy Girl and her Father approached me, her father tried to stop her but the girl really wanted me to teach her and train her personally.

And because she was very strong and also a beauty, I accepted.

Because she was way stronger compared to the Human girls, I sparred with her personally, almost without holding back, giving her a similar training to Evan. Every time she was almost dying I quickly healed her, making her father faint several times.

Instead of growing scared of me, the Harpy Girl grew even more fascinated and seemed to be deeply in love with me. She also didn't really like the Human girls but I forced her to spar with them while fighting a horde of Undead at the same time, forcing her to grow accustomed to the girls.

Everyone worked very hard, and at the end of the day, I summoned more than ten thousand Undead Soldiers with the help of [MP Share]. I think that anyone else would find this method extremely inconvenient if it wasn't because of the large pool of MP that I can get access to with this skill.

The amazing thing about my Undead Soldiers made with my Summoning Book is that I can reinforce their delicate skeleton bodies with strong Blood Muscles and even assign them, powerful Classes, making them quite the hard foes.

[You gained 532119 EXP] [The rest of your servants gained tons of EXP]

[You gained one level!] [LEVEL 56/70   EXP 208018/638000]

[The rest of your servants gained tons of levels!]

Tonight, dinner was as delicious as ever, I decided to hold a nice banquet with several preparations made of Familiar Meat, everyone ate to their heart's content as the preparations kept coming. Rimuru also made some delicious plates like Thunderstorm Phoenix Karage and Hot Pot.

I left my wives to go to sleep first as I went to the workshop and worked on some things I've planned. Tonight, I decided to reinforce the Rings that I was going to give to my wives, covering them on a beautiful golden luster and forging them again, until they all became [Rare++].

I also decided to practice my Sewing Skills and slowly crafted some beautiful dresses for my wives, I might use my Forging Skills alongside and make them official armors. I also made several swimsuits that I wanted them to try on…

Just thinking about their beautiful, slim and thick bodies on such revealing and sexy swimsuits fill my heart with excitement. I also decided to make one for myself, but I think I went too hard on the sexiness and made it too revealing… Well, if my wives are the only ones seeing it, I'm fine with it.

I also made some more formal "Noble" dresses for my wives, similar to the ones the humans wear. Maybe someday we will be able to visit the Human Kingdom and I want them to look as beautiful as ever.

Lastly, I crafted some smaller clothes for my future children, I don't even know how they will be, so I mostly went to what I would think they will end up looking like.

When I finished making the last dress, it was around 4 AM so I quickly went to bed.
