Epic of Caterpillar

.

.

.

Feeling the strong exhilaration and ecstasy rushing through my whole body and soul, I couldn't help but rest my body into my chair for a bit, as I glanced at the sky and moonlight, my Divine Aura began to expand wildly…

Oof, here it comes…

Ding!

[Kireina] has gathered the sufficient amount of required Experience Points!]

[Kireina] Level has increased from Level: 135 to Level: 137!]

[Current Level: 137/250]

[Kireina] gained +40.000 Class Skill Points and Subclass Skill Points!]

[Kireina] gained +60.000 Dungeon Points!]

[Kireina] gained +10.000 Soul Stats, +3.000 HP, +3.000 MP, +1.000 Stamina, +3.500 Strength, +3.000 Defense, +3.500 Magic, +2.500 Resistance, +2.200 Speed, +100 Luck, +3.500 Charisma, +4.000 Blood Strength, and +1.500 Dungeon Power!]

Damn, nice. More Stats~

My entire body feels as if it going to bust for just a split of a second, alongside my soul.

This was the 'accommodation' of all the power I acquired, which shows as stats gained in the System.

My body quickly calms down as I tighten my muscles and concentrate all of the power within my small body…

Based on my HP Alone, I should not even have this size, I would be a giant Titan. But thanks to my shapeshifting, I can 'mask' this, and acquire as many stats as I want without having to change my physical appearance.

Usually, people that gain more Strength and HP, would have their muscles grow bigger, and even their size would increase, in my case, I would become quite intimidating… Also, a muscular fairy might not be good-looking.

I even gained two levels from eating equipment, just like last time… I honestly have no idea what triggers this, but it might be similar to my worship EXP, and this is just the assimilated Divine Energy made into EXP, Skill Points, and Dungeon Points.

My Class Points are getting into ridiculous numbers already, I guess it is time to change Classes… maybe tomorrow?

I am getting over ten thousand Skill Points daily now, crazy how much it has increased in these last few days. I just keep powering up from the powerups I get.

And I can simply sit down and get more power…

It really feels as if I were playing some kind of idle game where you do not do much other than managing things, while the game runs by itself and your progress keeps going slowly. You can even leave these games going for days without even putting a glance at them, and then when you come back, your character or whatever is even stronger than before…

It is as if I were playing an Idle Game in real life… How would it be called into a Web Novel title?

My Idle Game System?

Hmm, I bet it would be an interesting concept, but I believe that people would not enjoy an MC that does absolutely nothing while powering up… I mean, would he ever go through any conflict if he simply does nothing at all?

I think I am diverging too much from the main issue here…

Oh, many Skills leveled up, as usual with these eating sessions…

Uegh, even with several categories resumed, this is way too much.

Man, if this were a Web Novel, I would be asking the author for the money lost in this complete filler for word count!

But of course, this is not a Web Novel, this thing appears as a holographic screen in front of me, while also showing up in my mind, and it really annoys the hell out of me.

It is like a slight headache…

Yeah, me, having headaches.

Someone who can divide its own mind so much, someone can connect her own mind with hundreds of Slime Clones…

Yeah, even someone like me, gets a headache from this.

Just so you can understand how powerful the System is.

Anyways, here comes another block of words, as I got quite a bit of Skill as well… Although now that I see them, the skills got per equipment had been reduced a bit, maybe I am slowly reaching the point where I won't get many Skills from eating Legendary equipment… Well, all of this was only Legendary, so maybe if I had snacked into something of Phantasmal Rank…

Ding!

A lot of interesting Skills.

Barring the ones that are simply the equipment themselves, which let me summon them as I please, there are some extra Skills around, such as Divine Blood Parasite, which is a bizarre Skill that helps me in parasitizing the blood of gods… Oh, I wonder how I can use it…

There are also things such as Divine Bones, which had greatly made my bones incredibly sturdy, seemingly as precious as Legendary-Rank Divine Materials in both quality and durability.

Another is named Divine Warp… This one is interesting.

It is a greater version than the Warp and Void Walk Spells, and if I use them all together, I can do these short distance warps even faster.

And even then… if I combine this with all of the movement Skills, well, I suddenly become incredibly evasive.

Although it is not really my thing, as I like my opponent to lay hits on me so I can grab them and eat them.

Divine Shapeshifting helps me shapeshift with even more ease, which goes well with my other Shapeshifting Skills…

Hm, now that I have gathered a good amount, I wonder if I should fuse some of these Skills… manually.

I believe I should be capable… Although, I also have the itch that I might be able to fuse them as I level them up naturally, or by changing Classes.

I might as well change Classes tomorrow then…

Oh damn, now that I have gathered so many Skill Points, this Class Changing Session might end up being even loner.

Or maybe short?

Well, the Classes were getting pretty expensive, so that might be the case, even with my cheat Discount Technique from the Merchant Skill.

As I ended assimilating all of the power acquired, I continued the feast with my family, which lasted for very long.

At some point, many more people joined in through the Teleportation Gate, and half of the Empire was on the beach celebrating, it was a rather fun party.

The Cancer Arachne was the most excited for our visit, as most of them had remained on the beach while being protected by my clones and armies as they had become something like a tiny vassal nation.

Ah, days like these really make me think that life is absolutely beautiful.

Even after all the hardships and difficulties that I have gone through… and even after the many that there are to come, I cannot help but glance with a stupid smile at my family, my friends, and the beautiful starry night.

Everything is so soothing, so nice…

I do not remember feeling so good before in my original world.

Although this world brings many terrible things, the good things seem to outweigh them by far.

I look over everything I have accomplished since I reincarnated here, and it is very hard to think that not even a year has gone by…

So many enemies, allies, friends, lovers, family, conflicts, and happy moments.

I think I have finally begun to 'live' since I reincarnated in Genesis.

It feels as if my past life was not even a life.

Although…

I still remember them.

My mother and my father…

They were the only ones that brought brightness and happiness to my previous life, so of course, I miss them a crap ton.

Hahh…

Sometimes, when I am alone.

I feel the melancholy of the possibility of not being able to see them ever again.

Or the possibility of them already being dead, with their souls lost within the vast cosmos…

But as I see my family cheering me up, my mind fills itself with conviction.

I really want to tell them about all of this.

I really want to show them my new life…

The Empire I have forged with my sweat and blood…

The family I have gathered…

The allies and friends at my side…

I really want you two to see it…

To see everything…

I want them to join me…

Haahh…

I will make sure to find one day you two.

And I will make sure to protect you and give you back all the happy moments you brought to my gloomy previous life.

I promise it.

Below these stars.

Below the moonlight.

I swear I will find you.

"Masta…? You're… crying?" asked Rimuru at my side, as she noticed that tears began to drip from my eyes… I seem to have been weeping in the middle of a very happy moment.

"Ah… Sorry. I was just thinking about the past…" I said.

"About your previous life, gu?" asked Rimuru.

"You're very sharp, aren't you? Indeed… My parents, to be specific," I said.

"I see… Well, I am sure that they should be fine, gu! We will find them one day, together, gu!" said Rimuru, grabbing my hands with her own and tightly giving me her warmth.

"I see… Thanks, I am counting on you, my dear," I said, as Rimuru cleansed my tears and kissed me.

"I will always be at your side, never forget it!" she said.

"Rimuru… How can you say something like that?"

"Eh?"

"You will make me weep again…"

"Uwah, Masta, don't cry!" said Rimuru, hugging me tightly.

"I am not sad… I am just very happy… These are tears of happiness…" I said.

"A-Ah…. I see, gu…" said Rimuru.

"Sigh… Since when I became so sensible?"

"You've always been a cinnamon roll to me, gu!" said Rimuru.

"I-Is that so…?"

"Yeah, gu! You are not the only one that needs to worry about these things… We will all worry with you… We also want to protect you, gu…!"

"P-protect me?"

"Gu! You're very precious to me, masta…" said Rimuru.

"I can… tell," I said, as Rimuru once again kissed me as I rested my head in her lap.
