Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 738 - [Scripted Event: War Against Gods] 20/?: Aarae VS Rose & Valentia VS Draknos!

-----

”Wait, nee-sama, donʼt just charge to the frontlines like that!”

”Come on, Aarae, we gotta pulverize these bastards for the Empire! Wall is taking care of one already!”

The shark twins, Aarae and Valentia rushed towards the frontlines the moment her allies broke the barrier that was entrapping them inside of their Empire.

Valentia, furious about these invaders, made her way into the front lines, rushing to confront the enemy army and the Demon Generals.

Although every child of Kireina had been given many types of equipment and transformation accessories by her, Valentia preferred to fight with her own body and muscles, deciding to use these items only when she was to find an actual threat to her.

Not long after Valentia entered the battlefield, many of the surrounding Demon Generals noticed the giant, eight-meters tall Shark/Dragon girl moving her tail around the ground and creating chaos everywhere.

There was also Aarae at her side, who flew around while using his magic to exterminate anyone that dared to appear in front of them.

”Well, these soldiers and beasts are rather lackluster… Was mother really that concerned about such a feeble army?” wondered Aarae, as he generated an Aura of Oceans, filling entire armies with enormous waves of water, crushing them before the enemies could even retaliate, while many others were eaten alive by his own army of Shark Familiars made of magic.

”I donʼt know but these armies are like an enormous buffet of EXP and delicious flesh! I am leveling up like crazy!” laughed Valentia.

”Run!”

”Gyyaaaaaahh…!”

”W-Wait, please!!!”

Demons after demons were grabbed by Valentia and eaten alive, she usually started with their heads, but sometimes would eat their limbs first, maliciously tasting their living flesh as they cried and agonized.

”Such crybabies, maybe you shouldnʼt have invaded from the very beginning if you didnʼt want to get eaten!” said Valentia, smashing to death a group of one hundred demons that were trying to escape or attack her with long-ranged bows and magic, which was all ineffective against her strong scales or Aaraeʼs water barriers.

”Perish!” said Aarae, his eyes turning crimson red as he released an enormous flood from a gigantic magic circle, drowning another thousand soldiers, which were then eaten by Valentia or his Shark Familiars.

”Phew… What a nice exercise! I have always fantasized about killing a bunch of humans!” said Valentia.

”Well, theyʼre not really humans… but demons,” said Aarae.

”Meh, the same! The enemy is an enemy! And these bastards even killed our people! So we gotta take revenge!” said Valentia.

”Well, those were the gods… but I believe theyʼre with these mortals as well… Well, letʼs kill them all before their bosses finally show up, I believe that we might finally have a challenge against them…” said Aarae, as Valentia nodded with a smile.

However, as the twins were about to resume the slaughter, two figures quickly rushed towards them, throwing large magic attacks against them.

Boom! Boom!

”Hm?” wondered Aarae, as he protected Valentia and himself with a barrier of water.

”Oh my, what a mess… Have you done this, little boy?” asked the voice of a seductive woman.

”Maybe they need some adults to teach them a good lesson?” wondered another voice, that of a bratty young man.

”Eh? Who are those?” asked Aarae.

”Hm… No idea, another soldier? Letʼs just ignore them and kill them…” said Valentia.

”Okay then,” said Aarae, producing an enormous magic circle.

The two figures quickly jumped off Aaraeʼs attack, as they seemed a bit enraged.

”How dare you not know my name?! I am not a simple soldier, you stupid brat! I am Rose, the Fifth Demon General!” roared the beautiful Succubus woman, with short bat-like wings on her hips and a beautiful and slender body filled with curves. Her long purple hair and black eyes enchanted many men, she was Rose, the Fifth Demon General, known as the Mischievous Succubus General.

”Oi, you shitty brats! How canʼt you know who I am?! I am Draknos, the Tenth Demon General!” roared a demon whose skin was covered in black scales and sharp horns all across his body, alongside skeleton-like natural armor covering part of his physique, a Dragon Zombie Demon, Draknos, the 10th Demon General, known as the Devourer of The Living.

”Demon… General? Whatʼs that?” asked Valentia.

”Hmm… I think mother once mentioned them. I think theyʼre like the equivalent of Heroes but for Demons,” said Aarae.

”Eh? Is that so? These two? But their presence is… barely anything! Are they really Demon Generals? Well, we also have eaten Heroes like snacks before, so maybe it really doesnʼt matter,” said Valentia.

”Y-Yeah, unless they have some kind of Divine Power within, they are nothing much of a threat…” said Aarae, smiling bitterly as he prepared once more a spell to wipe these two eyesores from their sight.

”Letʼs see… Maybe they can fight back? I pick the dragon dude!” said Valentia, rushing towards Draknos as she raised her claws, shaping them as the pincers of a crab and releasing a storm of slicing attacks towards Draknos, as the Demon Generalʼs eyes seemed filled with fright!

”Tch! I gotta go all out or I am getting fucked! These kids are no joke!” roared Draknos, as he suddenly began to transform into a giant Zombie Dragon!

”Hm, this guy reminds me of a God that mother fought… Zudig, was it?” wondered Aarae.

Indeed, Aarae was right, Zudig was a Zombie Dragon Demigod, but Draknos was different, as he was a Dragon Zombie Demon, a race born from Zudig and one of the Demon Gods through asexual reproduction, such race was rather small within the Demon Kingdom, and when Zudig left them, he never cared about his descendants, leaving them to their own luck.

As the descendants of a Demon God that the Demon Gods from Thanatos did not have good terms with, they were a discriminated race all around the Kingdom, and their numbers were quickly decreasing as the family was mildly hunted down by church fanatics, who saw them as enemies of the gods by being the descendants of a traitor.

Although the Dragon Zombie Demons held an amazing potential and power within their existences, they were also wiped out, leaving Draknos as their only survivor.

He was only a kid when all of this happened, with the whole world against him, he had to be fierce and brave to survive, stealing, killing, and hiding.

Not long after, he discovered the System and used his cunningness to abuse it, leveling up, sharping his skills and spells, and ultimately evolving.

Later on, as he found himself more respected by his strength around the slums, he awakened his Epic Skill and was then recruited by the first Demon General, Puplalina as a new Demon General.

Draknos roared, as he turned into a ten meters tall Zombie Dragon, opening his maw, and releasing a powerful breath of deadly sickly green fire, one of his bloodline skills inherited from his ancestor, Putrid Breath.

BOOM!

The sickly green flame clashed against the storm of slicing attacks that Valentia had unleashed, generating an explosion.

Valentia smiled as she pointed her hand towards Draknos, as it shaped itself as a dragon as well!

”Maybe youʼre not so boring?” asked Valentia, releasing dragon breaths from her two hands, as Draknos evaded one but had to defend against the other with his breath and phantasmal magic, barely making it out.

”Hm? Already dying?” wondered Valentia.

”This is… not the end! Our Queen has given us gifts from the Gods… we simply have to use them!” said Draknos, as he activated several fragments of Divine Beasts within his Soul.

Flash!

Valentia smiled as she generated a mass of shadows, alongside enormous boulders, making them all rain over Draknos before he could do anything!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

”Nnggyyaaah…! W-Wait a second! Where is your prudency?! Wait for me to transform!” cried Draknos, barely evading as his new body was finally showcased, his scales became harder and stronger, and he had two new heads and a larger size.

”Triple breath now!” laughed Draknos, releasing just that, three times the same breath attack.

Very original.

Valentia seemed already bored, as she generated a mass of shadows and earth, merging it and then throwing it like a football towards Draknos.

CLASH!

”Nngguuooh…!”

”Your body is way too heavy now, pretty easy to strike you down like that!” laughed Valentia, smiling maliciously as she shaped her hands as those of dragon heads once more, tearing apart Draknos, he was completely hopeless.

”Oi, oi, wait for a second! Am I some kind of filler?! Is this really what I have been reduced to?!” wondered Draknos, thinking that his own army had just made him into a meat wall to entertain the enemies, realizing the truth, he tried to struggle to live, but Valentia tore apart his claws and arms, and quickly after, his entire body was ravaged.

”Unnggyyaaah…! Stop! Fucking stop…!” he cried.

”Hm? Werenʼt you prepared to die? Then why do you even join a war?” wondered Valentia, grabbing Draknos soul and slurping it like a noodle.

”Phew, that was no fun at all, but I guess I got a little bit out of it,” chuckled Valentia, as she glanced at Aarae fighting against Rose.

Rose was born in the slums as well just as many of the other Demon Generals, many of the Kingdomʼs talented warriors did not even come from the royal families.

She, however, had a different story, as she was adopted by a brothel at a young age, working as a sex worker from a young age.

Due to being a Succubus, a member of a family that would often be part of royal families, she was seen as a special product, and often only those rich enough to pay for a night with her would visit her bed.

However, as she slowly developed her abilities more, she slowly began to realize that she had the power to drain the energy of those she had sex with, alongside this, her ability to manipulate Dream and Illusion Magic increased, and not many months after this reveal, she acquired an Epic.

At that moment, it was noticeably clear that she was not really someone ʼnormalʼ, but even then, she left many of the sex workers working at her side surprised…

It was very obvious, as it was incredibly ridiculous for a prostitute to become a Demon General… Yet there she was.

However, despite the strange looks she got, Rose strived forward and changed her ways, joining the Kingdomʼs army and gaining a hefty salary, she got herself a good territory and slowly increased her powers through continuous intercourse with many men, alongside other things…

She also ended up raising her own brothel, but just as she was about to make a second one and expand her monopoly, she was called by the Queen… And well, here she was.

Rose did not know what exactly was going on, any men she ever fought would always become hypnotized by her powers, and even charmed instantly!

However, the boy in front of her seemed completely unfazed and was already charging several spells against her, almost catching her several times.

She used her Illusions to escape from his attacks, but Aarae had already grown weary of her and was charging more serious spells, alongside using his Shark Familiars to attack her.

”H-How?! Why are you not being charmed by my awakened version of Allure, named Succubus Queen Charm?!” asked Rose.

”Eh? Charm? Are you using that? Well… motherʼs charm is incredibly potent, and Iʼve already grown used to it… To tell you the truth, I didnʼt even notice you were using a Charm Skill,” said Aarae, as he finally managed to grab one of Roseʼs elusive legs with one of her Shark Familiars!

Crunch!

”NNnngyaaaaahhh…! W-Wait, we could talk this out! We can- NGGYAAAH!”

”Sorry but no, die, please,” said Aarae, as he commanded the rest of his Shark Familiars, each one grabbing one of Roseʼs limbs as she screamed in agony.

”Nooo! Wait for a secoooond! NNGGYAAH! It hurts! It fucking… hurts! You shitty… brat!”

Crunch!

”GYAAAAH! STOP AT ONCE! YOU… YOU…! Nnnggyaaaahh…!”

Crunch!

”Aahhhhh…! I donʼt want to die…! I donʼt want to die…!”

Crunch!

”Finish her,” said Aarae, as he conjured his oldest Shark Familiar, an enormous hammerhead Shark, flying towards Rose!

”GROOWL!”

”W-Wait! Please, wait for a second! I am just a whoreeeee…! Aaaaaggghh…!”

Crunch!

The Hammerhead Shark did not listen to any of Roseʼs requests, as it ate her in one bite.

”Hm? A whore? Oh… Well why was she even in a war then?” wondered Aarae, as, through his Shark Familiars, he devoured Rose as well, getting some of her power.

”Come to think about it, she never used the stupid Divine Beast Fragments… maybe she forgot out of fear? Or maybe she was never that good at fights,” said Aarae, smiling and flying near his sister.

”And we are done here!” said Valentia.

”Indeed, letʼs continue destroying their ranks, we have to do everything we can to protect our home,” said Aarae.
