Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 721 - [Scripted Event: War Against Gods] 7/?: False Confrontations, Deceiving a God!

-----

Jorgrakog remembered his previous plans and the things that the mysterious god with three different minds and voices told him.

They granted him this power because they wanted 'chaos'.

And also, because they wanted him to fight against Kireina.

But the weird thing was that even after devouring the crystal that gave Jorgrakog these powers, he did not let any kind of enslavement nor any type of power forcing him to do as they said…

They simply wanted him to create chaos, whatever the means.

But Jorgrakog hasn't been released from his seal to happily obey whatever they said.

Now that things were changing constantly, he decided to side with the one that he thought had a higher chance of winning.

While Jorgrakog glanced at the fight, he realized how Hephaestus had immense power, resources, and Divine Techniques, and with the help of his wives, he was even more powerful.

Meanwhile, Kireina struggled quite a lot, always moving away from his attacks while showering him with different attacks, most of them that were easily destroyed.

He also saw how Kireina's clones were turned into ashes one after another, her own power was quickly lowering.

However, he slowly realized that Kireina had an immense amount of abilities and skills.

If something didn't work, she would quickly move to the next thing that might work.

Constantly trying out new things.

Eventually, she finally managed to put Hephaestus into hardsh.i.p.s.

They were small at first.

But slowly and steadily, she managed to corner him!

Although she looked so lost at first, she evolved in the middle of a life and death battle!

Jorgrakog felt something strange.

Glancing at her constantly improve and evolve in the middle of a battle, made him strangely attracted to her.

And to boot it, she was constantly releasing a strange Aura that naturally called to him.

At first, he simply ignored it.

But as his admiration for such a being grew, Kireina's Aura and Enlightenment finally broke through his mind, encroaching him.

Jorgrakog did not want to admit it, but aside from the odds and want to survive, he had been charmed by Kireina!

And now, he decided to switch sides, going to catch Aglaia to show Kireina that he intended to become her ally.

And through this, he also learned that the strange Apollo and Cyrene were in fact, Kireina as well!

Hid mind began to develop a strange admiration for Kireina, even bigger now!

Jorgrakog was a being born after the Ragnar?k, a chaotic being that only seek destruction and mutation, and contaminated everything he could to make it a comfortable home.

Due to his vicious nature, he has sealed away.

But now that he was finally freed, he did not completely feel like wanting to simply do that anymore.

He felt like he had a new purpose in his life.

To follow her!

And he was now ready to show her that he intended to become her ally, by helping her defeat the enemies that one day sealed him!

"What?! Did you think that I would lick the boots of the ones that sealed me in here, doing as you wanted like a dog?! You're completely wrong!" roared Jorgrakog, his enormous wolf skull head opened its bony jaws, charging an enormous mass of dark energy.

Jorgrakog's form was that of a mass of pitch-black slimy ooze which contained countless bones, he seemed like a living petroleum mass covered in fossilized bones of ancient monsters.

Aglaia was shocked over Jorgrakog's chance of sides, she had taken for granted that due to Hephaestus's intimidating presence, Jorgrakog would do as he said… But it seemed that the Demon God was betting it all on Kireina's victory!

This was not completely baseless, he had seen that Kireina truly had a chance!

And now that he even got to know that Apollo and Cyrene had infiltrated amongst the Gods, his confidence over his change of sides had grown even bigger.

However, Apollo and Cyrene could not drop their act yet and simply sided at Aglaia's side.

Jorgrakog roared madly, firing a powerful cannon of complete darkness, as Aglaia generated a light barrier, while Apollo and Cyrene helped her strengthen the barrier while also firing projectiles against Jorgrakog, which he easily took out.

"This damn ungrateful monster! How dare he think of my husband as weak?! I might as well seal you back again where you belong, deep underground!" roared Aglaia, charging towards Jorgrakog with Apollo and Cyrene at her sides.

Jorgrakog roared, leaping towards her, wanting to confront her directly!

Hephaestus and Kireina had already noticed what was happening, but both were fighting against each other constantly, Kireina was repeatedly combining Spells, Skills, and Abilities into different types of attacks, such as waves of scarlet red made entirely out of parasitizing phantasmal worms, rays of pure light, dream clouds that tried to make Hephaestus sleepy, amongst many others.

She even began to create new Spatial Attribute Spells, such as Spatial Bind, which let her bind Hephaestus in place for a few seconds, giving her some time to charge even more powerful attacks.

Although the Blacksmith God wanted to help his wife, Kireina, who was merged with her four wives Rimuru, Nesiphae, Zehe, and Brontes, was pressuring him constantly, although she herself was being put on her limits all the time, her entire body was being constantly melted and healed back, and even their combined souls began to be consumed by Helios flames… It was similar to Megusan's poison, the flames of the titan had the power to consume anything.

However, the flames themselves were also consuming Hephaestus's soul, and his mind was slowly being taken over by Helios.

"I will not let you do as you please, Hephaestus!"

"Free me at once!"

"If you don't free me, I will simply take over your body!"

"You will become me!"

The fragments of Helios all spoke in the same youthful voice of the Titan of the Sun, roaring and threatening Hephaestus, as the Blacksmith God ignored them and kept fighting for his life.

Meanwhile, Aglaia clashed against Jorgrakog, using the power of her Graceful Divinity, she generated countless graceful lights that even penetrated the Demon God's darkness within his oozy body, slowly burning him!

Jorgrakog however seemed to be unaffected by things such as pain, laughing at the damage he suffered, waving his body, and shaping it as oozy tentacles, releasing countless whipping attacks towards Aglaia, while also firing bullets made out of his body towards Apollo and Cyrene, who they evaded very easily, being part of their act.

And then…

"Ah! Aglaia, watch out!" said Apollo, as Jorgrakog suddenly fired five cannons of darkness coming from several large monster skulls surging from his body, Aglaia was about to be hit directly, however, she knew that she would be easily able to reflect it with her barriers, but oddly enough, Apollo had decided to move her away and take the hit for her.

"Unghh…! Wait, Apollo!" cried Aglaia, knowing that Apollo was rather weaker for some reason, however, as Apollo was consumed by the cannon of darkness, Cyrene was pushed towards her by the whipping attack of Jorgrakog!

"Gyyaaaaahh…!"

Cyrene hit Aglaia's quite strongly, as Aglaia tried to grab Cyrene… However, in that moment of her guard being lowered, Aglaia suddenly felt a sharp object penetrating her chest, directly into her heart, and even entering her very soul, all in mere seconds!

Aglaia glanced at Cyrene, who seemed to be in intense pain, however, it was a mere fa?ade.

Aglaia wanted to scream to Hephaestus, but she sensed as if her voice could not come out of her mouth.

A strange presence began to take over her soul, as within the split seconds where everything unfolded, Aglaia noticed that Cyrene was the one producing this strange, black, purple, and crimson energy, alongside a sharp, stinger-like bone from her chest!

Within the fa?ade of Cyrene's face, Aglaia noticed that the eyes of the woman had turned crimson red, glancing at her with the intent of devouring her!

"(What…?! What is… happening?! Cyrene… This… Unghh…!)" Aglaia flew through the sky, falling towards the ground while being tightly grabbed by Cyrene, Apollo pretended to fall as well, as the three 'succ.u.mbed' to Jorgrakog's attacks, as Hephaestus completely believed the act!

Apollo, Aglaia, and Cyrene all fell into the volcanic lands, hitting the hard black rock, Hephaestus seemed to have the intent to stop wrestling against Kireina and jump for their rescue!

However, just as he was going to try, the space around Aglaia and Cyrene began to distort!

"…No!!!"

Hephaestus cried, knowing very well what this meant!

Apollo quickly stood up, moving with his wounded body towards Aglaia and Cyrene, gnashing his teeth and forcing himself to go for their rescue!

However, it was too late!

Within a split of a second, space itself distorted, as a crack opened, revealing darkness within and a monstrous fleshy creature filled with eyes, jaws, and tongues!

"CYRENE!!!"

Apollo cried as Cyrene and Aglaia were dragged into space by the monstrous creature. Aglaia supposedly still had power within her, but she felt as if her entire physical body and soul were sealed from the inside by the bone that penetrated her from the chest through her heart and directly into her soul!

"(T-This…! No! Was Cyrene…?! Was this all a scheme?!)"

Aglaia could not even cry, with her eyes closed at Cyrene's side, the two were dragged into the darkness where a fleshy being met them.

"Good work, me," it said, as Cyrene suddenly changed her face, revealing a smile and not the painful expression of the 'damage' she had taken, quickly jumping out of Aglaia as she stood glancing at her with her arms crossed.

"You…! Cyrene…! You traitor!" cried Aglaia, finally regaining some of her freedom and trying to break through the internal seal of her soul and body.

But it was too late.

"Don't worry, you will finally reunite with Kabeiro… As one," said the mass of grotesque and gibbering flesh, extending its tentacles, and entangling Aglaia, as enormous jaws opened within the aberrant mass, salivating and licking her tasteful body.

"Man, I can't get enough of these Gods…" it said, mauling on Aglaia as she screamed in agonizing pain.

Pieces of flesh began to be torn apart from her by the countless jaws, alongside parts of her soul, not only physical pain but a tremendous soul pain-filled Aglaia's mind, her graceful heart was now filled with horror!

"Unnggyaaaaahhh…! Stoop! AAGGHH…! GYYAAAAHHH…! STOP! UUNGHH…! UNGAAAAHH…!"

Aglaia was torn apart and devoured piece by piece as if the fleshy monster enjoyed her suffering.

"Do you have to take so long?" asked Cyrene.

"It is more enjoyable when they scream in agony, it increases the flavor," said the fleshy monster.

"Sure thing…" sighed Cyrene.

Aglaia was reduced to pieces of soul, as she fell through the abyssal esophagus of the fleshy monster, falling into a sea of acid, and slowly being melted into nothingness.

Her last moments of consciousness were filled with the memories of her four daughters of the times she spent with Hephaestus, and about the happiness that she once lived…

As it was all torn apart, and digested.

"Gulp. Phew… That was amazing!" said the fleshy monster, as its entire being began to glow with a bright yellow gold aura.

"What should I do now? I can't possibly go back to the battlefield as if nothing, right?" asked Cyrene.

"Remain in here, I will go fuse with the main body," said the fleshy monster, as Cyrene was left inside the pocket space, while the fleshy monster created another pocket space and flew through the Spatial Layers, reaching Kireina's legs, and fusing with her while Hephaestus was distracted by the pain he was feeling the moment he sensed that Aglaia's presence disappeared out of the blue.

Hephaestus knew very well who had caused the death of Aglaia, the monster in front of him!

It was obvious to him that the only one capable of manipulating space in here as she and her clones, she had caused not only the death of Kabeiro, but of Aglaia as well, and both of them right in front of his eyes!

And even Cyrene, the wife of Apollo, suffered the same fate!

She was openly devouring his family shamelessly in front of him!

Hephaestus was filled with sorrow, rage, frustration, and a monstrous bloodthirst.

Gnashing his teeth, he was consumed in pure flames!

Kireina sensed that the clone fused back with her, as she quickly employed the memories of Aglaia and her Divinity to strengthen herself once more, releasing enormous cannons of light, combining both Aglaia's and Apollo's Divinities!

Boom!

Hephaestus was hit right into the chest, flying away a few meters!

Meanwhile, Apollo roared, covering himself in bright yellow light, and flying like a flash of light towards Jorgrakog, pretending to be consumed in rage.

"YOU WILL DIE TODAY, TRAITOR!" cried Apollo, with sorrow due to the death of his wife.

"Hoh? Try if you can!" laughed Jorgrakog, floating around with his oozy body, and large projectiles of black ooze towards Apollo, who evaded them or disintegrated them with his Divinity of Light.

Although Hephaestus did not felt that Cyrene's presence disappeared nor anything at all. It was as if Hephaestus just realized that Cyrene did not even have a presence from the very beginning.

However, in the middle of a battle against Kireina, he could only think of that as something that perhaps Apollo knew better, as he was the husband of Cyrene, and their bond was stronger.

Foolishly filling himself with lies, Hephaestus jumped back on action, roaring and flying like a blazing meteor towards Kireina.
