Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 782 - Side : A World-Changing Event


-----

This was the day when the world changed.

​​

Although mortals did not know about it.

The Gods rejoiced.

And others grimaced the chaotic future to come.

Some Demon Gods laughed evilly, while righteous Gods began to lament the events to come.

This was a world-changing event.

Within the Interdimensional Merchant Shop, a mysterious, anonymous God, started to sell an item that would change everything within the gods' society as everyone knew it.

It was an item that should have never been sold.

An item that should have never existed.

But now that it was being sold in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop, a special space accessible by every God in existence within Genesis, such power was at the grasp of anyone willing enough to spend large amounts of Divine Energy Crystals for it.

The mysterious God who had sold such items laughed maliciously within its chaotic Divine Realm, as it watched as the entire world fell into complete chaos.

"It has been done…"

"We had been taking our time, but it is finally done…"

"And the sales… the second we put the item in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop… it's blooming!"

"Everyone wants it, everyone wants this power, the one they had all been desiring the moment they got to know about Kireina!"

"After so long… we can finally mass produce it and engulf this world in complete chaos!"

"A new era has been brought… and it was all thanks to Kireina!"

"Yes, thanks to her, we managed to discover this power, and thanks to her, we acquired it!"

"And thanks to her, we used it!"

"And thanks to her… we have recreated it countless times!"

The god glanced at an enormous Divine Formation that resembled a gigantic temple that was constantly generating black-colored jewels while being connected to their very souls.

At the same time, a certain amount of Divine Energy Crystals was being poured into such formation, as more of these black jewels were being produced one by one.

"The power to change this world… at the grasp of anyone!"

"This will surely… bring chaos as it is!"

"Complete and utter chaos… where we can thrive and grow stronger…"

The god grabbed one of such black jewels, glancing at its splendor, gleaming with a power that should be forbidden…

"With this… everyone can be special! Like you, Kireina!"

"And when everyone is special…"

"No one will be…"

The world was changing, and even the Great Gods and Supreme Gods noticed this change.

Some of them grimaced with the terrifying possibilities of this, while others were fascinated by the changes to come, which some of them had been wishing to happen for thousands of years.

This 'peace' was getting too stale after all.

Something, a trigger, needed to happen, so fight for supremacy could once more be the main topic of this world.

All these powerful entities only wished to become the supreme being atop all others, and being forced into peace due to various circumstances was sickening to them.

However, some of them felt guilty for what happened in the Ragnarök, and tried to take care of this world…

But those were the minority.

The majority desired to fight, to kill, to grow stronger!

There was not anything else they wanted to do other than to step on the weak and steal their power for themselves!

There was not anything else they wanted to do other than to amass power and surpass their limits, to reach the pinnacle!

Within the confines of Genesis, the greater beings, the Supreme Gods, glanced at these scenes with awe.

Within her Divine Realm, the Supreme Goddess of Souls and Reincarnation considered that such change would shatter the peace they were living on and that such powers would only bring more monstrous entities that will try to overtake her… She grimaced this future and decided to prepare, although she had attained a Supreme Divinity, she knew she still had many ways to improve her strength and to secure her life.

"I cannot falter anymore… I suppose… But really, what a pain… and being a Supreme Goddess makes me the target of all these insane Demon Gods who will most likely want to devour my power… Sigh…"

Inside of her Divine Realm, the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin thought of this as a terrible thing that would bring too many changes to this world. As someone who was considered the mother of life, she was expected to maintain the order of things… but now that such an item was being openly sold to millions of gods… was there anything she could do?

"The world you have left behind, my daughter… will be once more shrouded in death and suffering…"

Inside of his Divine Realm, the Supreme God of Star Oceans smiled wickedly, as his fascination for what was to come grew bigger and bigger with each passing second, his plans to overtake the order of the world were now about to start without him having to do anything at all.

"It seems that… Kireina provoked this, didn't she? She brought this power to the world, and now, through the many events that came to her, such a thing was born… the Era of Change, the Era of Chaos, is about to begin… How exhilarating!"

Inside of her Divine Realm, the Supreme Goddess Fate and Destiny seemed greatly angered by this, as the world underwent a Chaotic Era, she would not be able to completely control Fate and Destiny, even if those elements so essential to existence were part of her Supreme Divinity.

Her powers were part of this world, yet she felt like she was soon to be weakened, her, a Supreme Deity…

"This… It all Kireina's fault! It all the fault of that demon! It is all thanks to that being who had brought so much change, who had resisted fate this long…! Even after the threats I purposedly made to appear earlier to get rid of her, she managed to somehow defeat them and steal part of their power…! What… can I even do now? …No, what am I talking about? I am still a Supreme Goddess, I must simply adapt to these changes and become as strong as possible within this new world, my fate and destiny will never be evaded so easily again! I will make sure… to shape this world of chaos as my own!"

Inside of his Divine Realm, the Supreme God of Time seemed unaffected by this change. His mind seemed as calm as the river of time, and no matter what was to happen, it kept a cold head and a certain mindset of his own.

"Time never stops flowing… Such things cannot be changed no matter what. This Chaotic Era, however, might make time go faster, as it slowly loosens its connection with Fate… What a dilemma. Should I intervene? The other Supremes seem just as shaken…"

Meanwhile, the Supreme God of Space and Creation and the System Master noticed these new changes and began to speculate what was about to unfold in Genesis, the world that they were both present and not present.

"It seems that it has started… Do you think there will be something fun?"

"I believe that there are now many variables in your world. Among most of the worlds, my Plane has visited, none of them had even been as strange, chaotic, and unique as yours. It truly fascinates me to an extent…"

"Well, you became a Supreme God in Genesis, so I suppose you are indeed quite hooked to it now,"

"…That wasn't my intention. The World's Will forced me to become such a figure of authority and law in Genesis so I was to be chained to that world… Its intentions are clear, it most likely wants to draw more power from my Plane,"

"It's your fault for being foolish enough to visit this world and leisurely contaminate it with your Plane's energy. I don't want to say it but… serves you right,"

"Indeed, it does serve me right. The 72 Demons had already acquired Avatars and had become Gods themselves, that my avatar became a Supreme God and ended up chaining my main body to Genesis was indeed a mistake of my part… However, governing the Gates of Hell does not simply mean that the 72 Demons would obey anything I told them, they are the primordial representations of the sins of all mortals across universe, after all, my Plane is only one… Such entities cannot be easily suppressed, even I have hard times forcing them to obey…"

"Aren't you one of the creations of The One? You could ask your father for some help,"

"The One and I are not related… Not anymore. I am me, Lucifer, and he is he, God. I am free from his orders, and I am no longer his servant… What I do or not is within my own thought process… I am no longer… his slave…" 

"Hmph, Archangels really have it so hard…"

"You call the Ruler of all Demons an Archangel?"

"I guess you don't have feathery wings, well, your avatar must look completely different than your actual real body within the depths of Hell, right?"

"You're right. It is very different… Although I do still possess feathery wings, it is not like I cannot change my appearance at whim,"

"But you choose not to…"

"Indeed, I choose not to. Because I am free of choosing whatever I please. And I choose to wear the appearance I was conceived as,"

"Talking with you is always so enlightening~"

"I can see that you've grown bored of my babbler. Now, tell me, how are the seeds you've left in the worlds affected by the Waves of Miasma released by Chaos are doing?"

"It seems that things are going rather smoothly… There are some oddities and invaders from other worlds in certain ones, but nothing I cannot handle… Good thing I left a child in each world to monitor things around… if such annoyances keep doing whatever they want, it will most likely do something against them,"

"You may be too confident in them, the ones in Genesis had already betrayed you, have they not?"

"Oh? For Kireina? Well, not really. I do not care that much about that, Kireina is an essential element to bring the Chaotic Era, so I am completely fine with that, and the stronger she grows, it is even better. To be honest, I am honestly glad they woke up thanks to her. Now they can raise against the World's Will with her and make things even faster…"

"A sinner you are, and a big one. Daring to raise and fight against your creator, your father… You are indeed similar to me. Is this why we get along well?"

"I don't know, Lucifer, and stop comparing our lives all the time. I am pretty sure that you have lived way longer than me, we cannot compare,"

"You flatter me, but I shall take that to heart, my friend,"

"So now we are friends? How amusing,"

"It is indeed quite amusing. I had never thought I would ever find someone I would genuinely call a friend. But our goals are similar, our ideals are similar, our stories are similar, and even our way of thinking is similar… We share the same path,"

"As long as I can manage to amass enough power by devouring the Origin Core of these small worlds I left the Seeds into, I should be capable of fighting back against the World's Will…"

"Are your intentions about overtaking it and then devouring its power?"

"Indeed… But it is a very long term one,"

"Fascinating. You may achieve what I have not yet done…"

"That's because the World's Will cannot even compare to the actual The One at all…"

"You may right be there. Nonetheless, such intentions are clear. And the similarities are there…"

"Seriously, even when I ask you to stop comparing us, you do so anyway,"

"That's because I am free to do whatever I please to do,"

"I can see that… Oh? How odd…"

"What is it?"

"Perhaps our plans might be shattered before we even realize it…"

"Oh? I see…"

"Well, not like I did not expect such entities to emerge…"
