Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 350 - Ancient Vampire Race’s Supreme Sovereign

[Day 206]

As I was sleeping, once again I was called by Gods, two Goddesses to be specific.

Agatheina and Levana…

Agatheina is the ancestor of all Vampires, so I thought she wanted to kill me through my dreams or something, as I had her as my enemy some hours ago… However, she came crying for forgiveness, it seems that the attack that I sent back to her ended inflicting more damage than I thought.

She seemed terrified, and at first, I couldnʼt really believe her, theyʼre gods, after all, they can be very good at acting, perhaps…

But she wasnʼt acting at all, she offered me everything alongside her granddaughter, who resulted in being a Demi-Goddess of Beastmen like Morpheus and the others. It seems that she was born after one of Agatheinaʼs mortal sons mated with Ova, giving birth to a half-vampire beastmen race of bats.

She was not related at all with what had happened in the Cilane Kingdom, so I didnʼt hold any grudges against her, she was a very shy girl. Agatheina and Levana asked for forgiveness together and after offering everything they could possibly offer, even their own bodies, I had to accept so they would stop desecrating themselves, theyʼre goddesses after all… it felt quite wrong to see them like that in my humble opinion.

Afterward, I was informed about the situation in Thanatos, and why the Vampires really invaded Cilane, they were in a mission to destroy the Kingdom from the inside and then give it to the Demon Kingdom.

Aleksandra, the head of the Vampire family was being guided by the Goddess Agatheina, by doing such great achievement, they would be closer and closer to become a royal family, which would grant them the possibility of gaining the throne someday.

After getting to know my existence, Agatheina was furious at first, as she seems to hate Vampires born through the Systemʼs Existence Evolution, so she assisted her children to kill me… and it ended in utter failure…

I was very angry at her at first, but after seeing her in such a pathetic and damaged state while asking me for forgiveness and an alliance, I had some pity on her, however I really did not intend to form bonds with her, if it wasnʼt for what Mysterious Voice told me, that is.

After using all of my skills combined and by seeing her aura completely and that of Levana, I finally saw no intentions of betrayal in their words… Agatheina seemed to be worshiping me as a greater being for some reason, completely forgetting about the hate against irregulars, and all of that, she began calling me Great Goddess, using ”sama” honorifics and more… Levana went along with it as she also feared me greatly after knowing what I did to her grandmother.

I was granted two special artifacts that used to belong to their champions, alongside several other artifacts and items that she used to strengthen her children, however Divine Beast Flesh had run out, there were some Vampires with it still alive, but she said that they werenʼt as skillful as the ones I fought before. Of course, I didnʼt believe her that much, but Iʼll be spying in the Vampires when they arrive in my Empire.

Agatheina had also granted me a special pocked mirror-like artifact that could let me directly speak to her, it was also connected to her soul, and if I were to crush it -as it was made with a non-indestructible material- I could severely damage her and even kill her, so this was like her last ”insurance” for me to trust her… Although I said that I trusted her, it is only half-half, I will remain wary, there isnʼt any guarantee that what she said is even true.

However, all of the benefits beat my suspiciousness, and if she tries anything funny, I will just kill all her children. Before leaving the two, I asked if it was okay to convert them into MY Vampires through my bite, and she said that if I did so, she would lose connection with them… but as long as they pray to her, it was fine. It seems that my conversion into Dhampirs to other people makes them lose their connections with their original ancestors, converting them into my bloodline.

I decided to use this as another insurance so that she wouldnʼt try anything funny by telling Aleksandra and her other strong Vampires to backstab me or damage my children.

Satisfied with these decisions, I began preparations, waking up early in the morning, I ate several tons of raw Familiar meat that I always have stored in my Item Box, gaining thousands of mass, and at the same time, I created hundreds of small Slime Clones which were packed with Stealth, Illusion and Flying Skills.

By seeing the adorable sleeping faces of Sofarpia and Sofelaia, I began creating Teleportation Traps with Dungeon Maintenance coupled with Trap Creation, and I edited them to do teleportation to the gates of my Empire.

Giving a Teleportation Trap to each Slime Clone, I left the Cilane Royal Castle and moved towards my Empire through the Teleportation Gate that I installed in the castle beforehand.

There, while most of my citizens slept, I moved towards a free space that was just recently paved, and by using the hundreds of thousands of materials stored in my Castle storage and the Construction System, I began to create hundreds of new houses at the same time.

Thousands of Undead appeared out of thin air, alongside the desired materials, and with amazing coordination and as if they always knew how to construct houses since the very beginning of their existence, they hastily began to create the homes of the Vampires and Bat Beastmen that will be coming later on today.

My Slime clones flew through the skies, in some hours, they finally reached the Thanatos Kingdom and bypassed the outside barrier by going underground. The barrier seemed to only protect the Kingdom from above, and not from the ground… did they never thought about someone attacking from the ground? Well, I guess there arenʼt many people like me who can manipulate Earth as if it were my own limbs. Such trait was also shared with these specially made Slime Clones, made only for this task.

The Slimes reached bellow the zone where the Vampires lived, a group of big manors alongside small houses, although most of the manor extended underground into hundreds of rooms. It seems that Aleksandra had already been alerted about this plan by Agatheina, which I had previously told her my next course of action.

Hundreds of tiny blood-colored Slimes carrying cubic-shaped metal artifacts appeared in the Vampireʼs neighbor gardens and moved directly towards the main manor, where Aleksandra and every other Vampire and Bat Beastmen were waiting. I could see such things through the eyes of my Slime Clones.

The Slimes entered the manor without any manners, breaking in the main door, scaring some of the servants who were unaware of what was happening.

CRACK!

”Huh?! M-Monsters! Kyaaaaaahhh!” screamed a young Maid Vampire, as she fell over the ground and closed her eyes, expecting my Slimes to eat her alive or something… of course, it didnʼt happen, they ignored her and moved towards the main room.

”Ah…?”

”W-What is that?!”

”A Monster invasion! Ruuunn!”

”N-Noo! Donʼt eat me!”

It seems that most of the servants were not informed, but Vampires who figured out the identity of these Slimes quickly emerged from the Ceiling and shadows, informing the freaked-out servants.

”Ah…?”

”Iʼm sorry, Vampire-sama!”

”So they are allies… I-I see…”

When my Slimes reached an incredibly large room in the palace-like manor, the face of the beautiful Aleksandra and hundreds of Vampires greeted me.

Aleksandra was a beauty to behold, her skin was even paler than Aliceʼs, her eyes were shining in a bloody crimson red, and her hair was long and silky, red-colored with stripes of black. In her forehead, she had a large ruby-like jewel that emitted a strong magic pressure.

Her entire body was tall and voluptuous, with incredibly large chest and wide hips, to top it all, she wore very provocative clothes that revealed her nude skin in several alluring areas, like her neck, shoulders, back, belly, and thighs.

With a mischievous smile, she greeted me.

”You must be the irregu- Ahem, I mean Kireina-samaʼs Familiars?”

My familiars stopped for a moment as they nodded, and then without asking anything else, they began to unite and merge, molding themselves into a giant gate-like structure, unifying the teleportation traps with Synthesis, after some seconds, a large teleportation gate was generated and activated.

The Vampires glanced at this spectacle with eyes wide open and dropping their lower jaws, not even Aleksandra was spared from this ridiculous facial expression.

”I-Impressive…! To be able to generate a teleportation device of such caliber in mere seconds and with Slimes?! I canʼt believe my eyes, yet, this is the truth!”

A voice, my own voice, resonated from the Gate, as I greeted them by teleporting to their manor, every Vampire and Bat Beastmen was finally able to see my appearance.

”Greetings, children of Agatheina, the rescue has come just in time! Now, enter~ There are houses just in construction for all of you, I will also build a manor similar to this one… Maybe I could bring it along? But I need all of you to enter first, no exception, even the servants”

Aleksandra was instantly charmed by my appearance, the Titles I possessed seemed especially useful with these Vampires when they didnʼt intend to harm me.

”Y-Yes! Immediately, Kireina-sama!”

The Vampires and Beastmen present immediately began to enter the teleportation gate, grabbing all of the useful things in their Item Boxes. There were several children, although some may be just Vampires stuck in that type of body. Some were Bat beastmen children.

Bat beastmen looked like humans except for their feet and arms. Their feet were those of bats, with strong black claws and black fur, while their arms were furry and their fingers exceedingly long, connected by membranes, like bat wings. Coupled with this, they usually had long black hair covering their faces and very sharp and pointy black bat ears at the top of their heads.

”Thank you, very much!”

”We are saved…!”

”We can finally leave this Kingdom that oppresses us!”

”Goodbye, stupid demons!”

A lot of them seemed to resent the Thanatos Kingdom, hopefully they donʼt hate the Undead and Monsters of my Kingdom… though I make sure for them to be well-behaved.

Aleksandra stood at my side, directing the people to enter, Vampires and Bats alongside their servants like Lesser Vampire Subordinates and even demons and humans who were the family of these Vampires.

There were around four thousand Vampires and one thousand and two hundred Bat Beastmen approximately, there were a hundred demons and humans as well, which were the unconverted families of various Vampires.

They were so many that it took half an hour for all of them to enter, several Demon guards outside were questioning why there wasnʼt even a single vampire or bat beastmen outside and this was quickly informed to the Pure Demon Families, seeing that something very suspicious was going on.

Before they arrived, all of the people had already bypassed to my Empire and Aleksandra as well, being the only one in the manor, I converted the entire thing in a Golem and ordered it to mold itself small enough to enter inside the gate. Making sufficient space back in my Kingdom, the Vampires and Bat Beastmen saw as their giant manor appeared out of thin air as a mass of materials.

”W-What is this?!”

”Incredible…!”

”K-Kireina-sama moved the entire manor inside?!”

”She is really the Champion of our Goddess!”

The surrounding people, mostly demons who were passing by saw this as well, a giant manor that had stood there for hundreds of years began to mold like slime and entered a tiny gate form the distance, everyone was dumbfounded and the guards took a lot of time to even report the thing because they were just admiring the spectacle with wide-open eyes.

When everything was done, I left a partying gift, ordering my Slime Clones to explode, leaving no traces. Colorful firework filled the sky of Thanatos, although it didnʼt damage anyone, the sounds were awfully loud, annoying everyone and even waking up the Queen and Royal Family.

When I was back in my Empire, I saw the Rin Sisters and several Succubus Secretaries attending every Vampire and Bat Beastmen family, registering them as families in the Empireʼs documents while leading them towards their new homes.

With Aleksandra at my side, I began to mold their former manor back to normal… however, because there were hundreds of floor underground and I did not want to dig deep, I decided to convert it into a tower-like structure, the Vampires didnʼt seem to mind, and Aleksandra kept praising me for my amazing feats, calling me the ”chosen one”.

”Oh! Kireina-sama, the chosen one! Mooch, mooch~” she said, with a blushed face as she began to kiss my feet, which revealed my toes through the heels I had��

The Vampires, who once feared and served Aleksandra were almost taking their eyes out in embarrassment over their leader acting like a dog.

”Ah… Itʼs not like I mind such a pretty girl kissing me, but Aleksandra, can you stop?”

”Mooch, mooch~!”

”Sigh…”
