Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 1233 - Hell Points

Mammon suddenly introduced a new concept within the Demonic Tower stuff I had no freaking idea. I mean, I did knew that they were kind of like mega dungeons or something, and they sort of copied these Tower Korean Novels I read in my previous life- I mean, that the owner of these memories read. In such stuff, these idiots climbed the tower and blah, blah, blah. But the towers themselves were usually like just giant dungeons, I guess.

However, Mammon had told me that that the Demonic Towers had another function, there were another version of these things that emerged as some sort of totem, a seed, in a way. After planting it in the ground, you'll be able to grow a Demonic Tower over time.

"These "things" are very special, they're called Demonic Totems, and if you place them in several areas of Genesis, the influence of demons grows and the flow of demonic energy intensifies. These totems ultimately grow into Demonic Towers of lesser quality and power than the ones in here, acting like dungeons that also connect to Hell, these are made by me so only my influence will spread while that of the other Princes of Hell will stagnate." Said Mammon.

"Oooh!" I said.

"If you plant a lot of them and Demonic Towers pop up, demons will come out and you can command them, I could even be able to manifest a greater part of myself too." Said Mammon.

"I see!" I said.

Apparently, they somehow drain the energy of any world they're planted, no matter how different this energy is from the actual Demonic Energy.

"How can they drain energy? Won't they work without demon energy?" I asked.

"Well, you could see them as plants, they can absorb other energies and convert them into demonic energy, this way we had been able to spread our influence across countless worlds! Lucifer sometimes likes to plant these seeds around and conquer worlds by filling them with demons." Laughed Mammon.

"Well that's… I see." I said.

"He doesn't really need to, but he does it for amusement and research purposes, but we'll use them because we need them, right? With these demonic towers, you can bring a crap ton of demons, and even manifest the power of archdemons, though the stronger guys around here might ask you for a fee to work for them, but I will manifest myself for free just because its you, Kireina-chan… Of course, you'll need a few of my demonic towers planted there… Hm, at least four." Said Mammon.

"I see… So you'll give them to me for free, right?" I asked.

"Hahahaha! Of course- not." He said.

"…"

"…"

I grabbed his neck.

Gently.

"Guh…?!"

"You're going to ask for money?!" I asked.

"A bit! They cost Hell Points…" he said.

"How much?" I sighed.

"50k each!" said Mammon while giving me a greedy smug.

"Okay I am going to strangle you! You just gave us 100k and you're telling me to waste them already?!" I asked.

"Well… You can make loans without any interest!" he said.

"You're a sneaky little bastard." I said.

"Yes, I am, I pride myself in being a greedy entity." Said Mammon.

"…Ugh, fine." I sighed.

"Fufu, thanks for the business!"

Ding!

[You've asked for a loan of 100.000 Hell Points]

[Loan Approved by [Mammon, Prince of Greed]

[You gained 100.000 Hell Points]

[You may pay the Loan at any time! Free of Interest]

[But you shall pay it…]

[You exchanged 200.000 Hell Points]

[You purchased the [Demonic Totem (Transcendental-Rank)] x4 Items!]

[Items have been saved inside your Inventory]

…

[Demonic Totem (Transcendental-Rank)]

A special totem craftily created by a powerful Archdemon, it allows the owner, with the permission of the creator, to plant the totem anywhere.

The totem will then absorb energy, repurpose it as demonic energy, and slowly grow into a Demonic Tower.

The more energy is absorbed, the faster it will grow, it is advised to plant them in high-energy places.

…

I see, so that's the description, very simplistic, and this is my first Transcendental-Rank Item, I think. That's the Rank for items above Divine Supreme Rank… Whew.

"Ugh, my 100.000 Hell Points…! You're a little wench, now I own you 100.000 already?!" I asked.

"Hehehe, thanks for business! You can pay the loan any time you want! No pressure, seriously!" said Mammon, I felt like he suddenly became a very greedy fox, for a moment fox-like ears popped out of his head and a long and fluffy tail came out of his back.

"Eh? Actually you're really like an old and greedy fox, huh? Actually I like these…" I said.

"Huh?! Agh! This again! Every time I feel greedy these come out… T-This is all because this body I have shapes to whatever I feel like I am…" sighed Mammon.

"I see, so you can be anything then? Do you even have a gender then?" I asked.

"Not really, I don't have a gender. I was originally an Archangel, and we are genderless beings. Some of us take into the shapes of males or females willingly just to be better identified." He said.

"Oh… Are all Archdemons like this?" I asked.

"No, only the Princes… and well, a few others but that's not necessarily because they're archdemons, only us Princes were Archangels." Said Mammon.

"I see! Wait, can you become a hot and sexy milf?" I wondered.

"I-I can…" he said.

POOF!

Suddenly, Mammon gained more height, large breasts, wide hips, longer hair, and a charming mature beauty.

"Damn! Now this is what we are talking about!" I said.

"D-Don't get used to this! Gyaa~!"

I grabbed Mammon's breasts tightly as she moaned a bit.

"Ugh, stop! I feel more comfortable in this form anyways…"

POOF!

He went back to being a cute trap.

"Well, you're cute in both forms." I said.

"Geez… I guess you're also a shapeshifter, right?" he asked.

"Yeah, I could even become a manly guy if I wanted." I laughed.

"Woah, let me see that!" he said.

"Eh?!" I asked.
