Epic of Caterpillar

422 Side Chapter; A Mermaid Princess's Reincarnation

After many years of living while sleeping, I was betrayed by the only family left I had that I could trust, my body was used as a sacrificial material for the one who called himself my 'ancestor'.

For a long time in my life, I always feared those dear to me to die and disappear, while I would still be stuck in this world, alone…

However, I was blessed with the opportunity to be left into a permanent sleep, although I would still be alive, I would be in my dreams, away from the suffering of the world.

But I was saved, by her.

She was kind, and her family was kind as well.

Although they seemed merciless to the rest of the world, the family that they had was full of warmth and love, something that I have never seen before, even in the families of those that fought for justice and righteousness.

It was an embracing love that I never experienced before. It made me change, she made me change.

She made me see the brightness of the world, the small things that could make you happy.

To appreciate living, to like the things that life offered.

I had changed… and I had tried to live my eternity with such ideologies…

But by a twist of fate, my brother offered me to my ancestor, my powers were drained from me, and I was no more an 'ageless'.

My body quickly weakened as I saw my always youthful skin dry out. My bones shattered and became dust.

Perhaps I would have been happy if my mentality were my previous one by that time…

But I did not want to die… I had finally grasped what truly was being alive, and life was taken away from me, by the one I trusted and loved the most.

After thinking it for a while, I suppose I understand him.

His sister that he had thought dead for so long suddenly showed up… although he still held feelings for me, they were dry and hollow. He had a whole Kingdom to take care of.

And giving my life to his ancestor, so that Kingdom's safety can be secured was a reasonable decision.

I do not hold grudges against you, Caspian, my little brother.

I will always love you.

No matter what you did or will do… you shall always live inside of my heart.

My beloved brother…

As the cold hand of death embraced me, my senses dulled, and I saw myself floating in limbo.

A strange place where there was not anything but me.

A dark, and cold place.

This was… death.

Endless darkness, only with my fading thoughts… will I be assimilated by the endless darkness and coldness? Or will something else happen to me?

Why is my consciousness still 'alive'?

I wondered such things as I realized that I was not just consciousness, but a pale gathering of yellow ethereal essence.

I was a soul… and just as I was beginning to understand it, a system message appeared, telling me that I was going to be reincarnated.

I suppose I was… I have been always someone like that.

I was never strong… neither intelligent… I just could not age.

Although I learned many things, I was always deemed as an ignorant fool.

But now… life comes to me again.

And I have already decided that I wanted to live this second life to its fullest.

Due to what she taught to me… Kireina.

Just as the cold embraced my very existence, warmness took a hold of me.

I felt as if I was drowning in a large pool of warm and sticky liquids.

I could hear the beating of my heart, alongside the beating of someone else.

My mother?

I could hear her lungs taking air, and giving it to me through my blood.

Whatever she ate, I ate… and she always ate very high-quality food. After a few days that she had realized that I was in her womb, she had stopped drinking alcohol. She is a very responsible mother.

Someone else glanced at me the other day… it was a strange yet familiar presence. Two Crimson eyes that could look through everything.

However, it did not look at me with curiosity or with bad intentions.

There was a warmness and caring within her scarlet eyes. She seemed strong but was embracing.

She hugged my mother several times. I could feel her embrace as well, her presence, her aura.

Do I have two mothers? Where could my father be?

As time went on, I slept… the embracing warm liquids were pleasant, sleeping has never felt this good.

I was feed with everything by my mother, and I was given the warmness of love by the two of them.

It was an exceptionally good start to my second life.

But at the same time, I could not wait to be born. I wanted to see the world once again.

The colors, the people. I wanted to talk with my mothers, perhaps with my siblings or my aunts, or even my grandparents…

I wanted to make new friends and to slowly grow stronger as well.

I will not be the same as in my first life. I will grow strong, and never be a pushover neither a useless person that cannot help anyone.

One needs strength to help others, and I also need intelligence to use that strength properly.

I will use my knowledge, and I will also learn more… I will become the best of myself, for the better of everyone around me.

I will make sure to not disappoint you, mother…

I already love them both… they always embrace me with their hugs and love… I never felt this way before. I just want to be born and tell them how much I appreciate what they have been doing.

I cannot wait…

As I waited and waited… my body slowly developed, and my mother as well… she seemed to have evolved. And each time she did, I evolved with her.

Although I didn't change much, I felt the positive changes brought by evolution, my Mana capacity seemed to overflow through my veins, and my mind felt clearer, my muscles tightened and became stronger with fibers, my blood pumping with energy.

And as I slept and slept… the time finally came. I was already quite big, I couldn't stay inside my mother's forever, I was already bulging outside of her belly, I could sense the outside world by a bit, I shared her experiences as well, the love she felt, the happiness she felt, or the times she got angry or flustered… or even those times she felt a bit… thirsty…

The walls of her cloaca began to contract against me, they were slowly pushing me down, I was slowly being born, I needed to resist and be strong.

Using my newly acquired strength through evolutions, I resisted the strong push, I could feel the cold breeze from the outside.

Two, warm… tentacles?

They gently grabbed my head and took me outside of my mother. Her warm liquids that always covered my entire body were stuck to my body for a bit, but the one that grabbed me made sure to clean me will with its tentacles.

"What a beautiful little princess you are," said a voice, which was very familiar to me.

I opened my eyes forcefully and glanced at the one who called me a princess.

A beautiful pale-white face, two crimson eyes and long purple hair, there was a gemstone in her forehead, and two dark horns at each side of her head… a bewitching beauty like I have seen before once.

However, she seemed more mature than before… her face had become more firm and exuded authority, her chest was generous and bouncy, and her shoulder small get firm.

Kireina…

As much as I tried to, I could not speak, but I glanced at her, to make sure that my eyes were not deceiving me.

It was really Kireina.

Was she one of my two mothers?

I could not believe the twists of fate…

"She seems very healthy, she is intensively glaring at me… Welcome to the world, Belle" she said.

How does she know my name? Did she know that I reincarnated?

I wanted to talk with her, to express to her how I felt… but I could not, however, I took over her fingers with my arm and grabbed it as tightly as possible, I wanted to tell her something, anything…

"You're so strong for a baby, you know?" she said.

"Let me see… my baby," said another voice, of a seemingly younger woman in her early twenties.

"Of course, Adelle" said Kireina.

She handled towards my mother… the one who had me in her womb. She seemed like a beautiful young girl, with beautiful dazzling gold and aquamarine eyes, and long blonde hair.

She was 'Adelle'… my mother… and I also remember her.

Adelle was one of my cousins of my first life, I had only briefly got to know her when I came back to the Aquaria Kingdom.

I cannot believe I was born as the daughter of one of my cousins, and Kireina is somehow my mother as well?

I do remember that she had a wife who had laid an egg… So Kireina has both sexes? Is a hermaphrodite capable of having children with a woman and a man?

It is the only thing I could think of, but I decided that such thoughts weren't necessary.

I accepted the lovely embrace of my mother, who quickly moved her simple white dress away, revealing her breast, her nipples had a rosy color to it and were flawlessly beautiful.

"You're such a beautiful girl, Belle… To think that you can already open your eyes… Here, it's time to drink your milk…"

It was very flustering to drink my mother's milk, as I had the mind of an adult already… but her milk was delicious and creamy, and filled me with mana and energy. My body overflowed with vitality, I felt that my entire body was beginning to activate its metabolism at last.

At a point in where I was being caressed by Kireina and Adelle, I fell asleep while drinking the delicious milk… my second life seems to be filled with interesting things everywhere.

I am genuinely happy to have been reborn as Kireina's daughter. I will make sure to thank her for what she taught to me before.

But perhaps, telling her who I truly am should not be a good idea, for at least a long time.

I do not want to frighten her or something… I prefer to be treated as a child and be pampered by the two for now…

I wonder if my brother Caspian is alive? Perhaps Kireina killed him when she learned that he offered me to his ancestor...

Probably my old ancestor wanted to kill Kireina because her strength might have seemed dangerous... Hm, I suppose it is fine to assume that they're dead by now.

Will they reincarnate somewhere?

[Bovdohr, the Demigod of Eclipses has blessed you!]

Hm? What?

[Nomera, the Demigoddess of Dawns has blessed you!]

Another one… I remember being blessed by the Goddess of Youth in my first life… but now I was blessed by Gods I have never heard about.

[Kireina, the Chimera Holy Mother of Lustful Venom has blessed you!]

Wait… what? Kireina can bless people now?

Is my mother a Goddess? Wait, then am I a demigoddess?!

This life was unexpectedly even more interesting than I thought…

[Divine Energy has begun to be produced!]

[Your body is overflowing with Divine Energy!]

I am really going to be a demigoddess now…?

This… may prove to be quite complicated.
