Epic Of Caterpillar

”She dared attack Geggoron-sama little offspring!”

”Kill! Kill! Kill!”

”Little offspring? Just what is going on in here?! I want some answers, you lowly pawns!” I shouted, shapeshifting my body into countless tentacles wielding bone or horn blades, instantly killing most of the monstrosities cultist before they could ever put a scratch on me.

Their bodies were sliced into pieces, blood flowing everywhere as their flesh tainted the eerie room with the smell of fresh meat and blood, I got even hungrier by then, so I began to eat a bunch with a tail that I shapeshifted as a dragonʼs head.

The rest were immobilized with my threads as I multitasked and began to brainwash them and extract all of their memories, while I also went and grabbed on the struggling ʼMini Geggoronʼ with a tongue-like sticky tentacle.

”Gyaan! Gagagarah! Graaggh! You lowly mortal, you scum! How dare you slice me in half!” shouted the little Geggoron.

”Shut up,” I said, enveloping it into my tentacle, it was weakened since I sliced it in half, and I covered it in seals charged with ʼDivinity Devouringʼ, the more it struggled the more it would be eaten.

As I gathered the memories of the cultists, I realized what was Geggoron trying to do…

”So by experimenting with monstrosities and mutated citizens he was trying to create a new race that could be used as a ʼperfect mortal vesselʼ for him…?”

”Oh? To think that you have such potential, little one!”

”Gnn! Nggahag!”

Although Geggoron has brainwashed entire Kingdoms by now, he has not been capable of finding a perfect vessel capable of resisting the Divine Energy of his Divinity without becoming a crazed monster similar to a fallen god, which stop being classified as mortal…

What Geggoron wants is a special vessel which he can use to completely merge with, and be capable of learning many mortal skills that are seen as ʼforbiddenʼ or ʼimpossible to obtainʼ for Gods, such as my beloved ʼDivinity Devouringʼ, ʼDungeon Snatchʼ, ʼLife Enmityʼ and so on.

It seems that after the existence of such skills was spread through the Gods from the information that the God of the Forsaken Labyrinth obtained by observing my status, a lot of gods are trying to obtain such ʼperfect mortal vesselʼ to obtain these skills and become even stronger than gods themselves.

There was even a small fragment of info about a Demigod that already managed to do that… Zudig, the Dragon Zombie Demigod of Rotten Desires… he even managed to get Divinity Devouring and Dungeon Snatch…

”So this little Geggoron was one of the better experiments? Though it still growing, it seems to be almost perfect… Geggoron, are you seeing this?”

Suddenly, a black, nightmarish blaze appeared from within an altar, with a single crimson eye, it was a lesser astral projection of Geggoron.

”You worm! Leave my vessel at once! I have worked so hard to finally obtain such an advanced specimen! Stop your foolishness!” shouted Geggoron, enraged.

”It is nice to meet you in person again, well, not in person, but to talk with the ʼmain bodyʼ…” I said.

”Shut up! Donʼt you dare eat it, the work of many years…!”

”Oh? The work of many years…? Letʼs see… if youʼre so desperate to obtain it, why donʼt you give up Moonfang and Sunclaw, alongside taking out your split souls from their vessels, put them inside a bottle so I can eat them easily and go away? I might give it to you by then!” I said.

”What? Do you think I am stupid?! How can I trust you?! Give it to me!” shouted Geggoron.

”Ah, well, if you donʼt care then…”

”Give it to me!!! GRAAA!”

Geggoron, who was in a weak ethereal form tried to attack me with its blazing body, but I expanded my Aura and blocked his attack as if it were a fly.

I grabbed the monstrosity that was going to be his vessel with my tentacles and opened my mouth wide open, breaking it apart into a grotesque form, making sure to show him all of my hundreds of sharp teeth.

”W-Wait! Noo!” shouted Geggoron.

”Gyaan! Gyaann!” cried little Geggoron, it was completely wrapped in my tentacles so it couldnʼt spit a word, but it was just as badmouthed as his original body.

”Chomp!”

I consumed the monstrosity with my mouth and triturated its entire body with ʼDivinity Devouringʼ. Unlike other Split souls, this one had a delicious flesh, which tasted similar to a mix between an octopus and red beef.
