Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 762 - [Scripted Event: War Against Gods] 44/?: The Sin Of Wrath Awakens!

-----

"What are you doing staring at her? Do you also want to be eaten?! Attack her!" roared Oculus, commanding the rest of the Demon Demigods around him, who were paralyzed.

"If we work all together, we'll be able to destroy her!" roared Jozrath, charging first as the other Demon Demigods followed him from behind!

The gigantic bull moved towards Kireina at fast speed, as a gigantic figure emerged before his path!

The enormous mechanical giant was the fusion of Truhan and Celica, covered in sharp spikes, enormous horns, several arms and weapons, and a coating of black and blue flames!

"Go away, mortal!" roared Jozrath, as it covered it is a gigantic bull body with countless layers of his Divine Aura, strengthening itself tremendously!

"Divine Technique: Divine Bull Charge!"

CLASH!

Jozrath clashed against Truhan and Celica's fusion, as it suddenly felt like he had not advanced as much!

Glancing above him, he realized that the giant had actually grabbed his horns!

"W-What?! Impossible…!" said Jozrath in surprise, even if they were enhanced with Kireina's powers through the mech bodysuits, they couldn't be able to stop the charge of an actual God such as Jozrath, especially a God such as him who specialized in charging with enormous force!

However, against all logic and reason, Truhan and Celica managed to do the impossible!

"UUUOOOOOOOHHH…!" roared Truhan and Celica's voices merged as one, as they exceeded all of their strength, grabbing Jozrath's enormous weight and throwing him away!

"This is… HOW?! UNNGGAAAH…!"

Flash!

Truhan and Celica flew towards the flying body of Jozrath, as the Demon Demigods at his side glanced with awe, their most respected leader was being used as a random ragdoll?!

And by mortals that were not even Kireina!

"DIVINE BLACK FLAMES TECHNIQUE: SOUL-SPLITTING DIVINE AXE!"

Truhan and Celica then generated enormous waves of black flames, combining their strongest techniques and spells into a single new Technique, the culmination of all this time they had been training and also the culmination of their bond and love!

CLASH!

"UNNGRRRAAAAAAAHHH…!"

Jozrath could not believe what was occurring right now!

It was all so logic-defying, his entire feeling of reality began to become warped!

"The power of our bond, and what we had forged… Even without having consumed Gods, we can achieve it, if we combine as one alongside the help of Kireina-sama!" roared Truhan and Celica as one, as they revealed a bit of the truth of their power, although such half-assed meaning couldn't get through the old and malicious Demon God at all!

Jozrath's flesh began to rip apart, as he screamed in utmost agony until he finally snapped back to reality before he was to get sliced in half, using all of his strength, and generating clones of himself made out of his Divine Aura, launching them at Truhan and Celica!

"So what?! Why would I care about how you achieved your power…?! I am a God… it is simply unthinkable for mortals to reach our realm! I will never let you cross the gap!" roared Jozrath, as he rained Truhan and Celica with attacks!

However, Truhan and Celica only roared louder than him, as if their lives depended on it as if their power increased by just screaming like insane people!

This was their rage and the awakening of something within them!

"We shall not falter… We have to protect what is precious to us, our Empire, our people, our friends, our master, our children! We do not have time to deal with you stupid Gods, who think that because you are stronger than us you can simply decide what will be our fate! Our lives are ours, and we shall exterminate you from our path if that means that we can see another day!"

Jozrath was greatly impacted by Truhan and Celica's raging speech, as their enormous power kept rising and rising… almost endlessly!

"Just what… are you?! How can a mortal simply… keep raising its power like this, are you trying to match my power, you ridiculous giants?!" roared Jozrath, as he kept firing more of his clones, who exploded over Truhan and Celica constantly!

However, Truhan and Celica kept fighting, even if their bodies began to fragment…

Even if they were being torn apart!

This was it!

They knew, deep inside…

That something was awakening.

That something was about to burst out of their very souls!

"We cannot… lose, we cannot possibly lose!!!" roared Truhan and Celica, as the unimaginable happened once more, as their torn-apart bodies slowly regenerated while taking Jozrath's attacks, something within their souls finally emerged!

A millennial power only bestowed to those beings that had delved into this thought, into this desire, into this action!

A Sin!

"UNNGG…?! This… just what are you, damned mortals!!!" roared Jozrath, unleashing an enormous wave of strength towards Truhan and Celica's core!

However, Truhan and Celica found themselves in a different place.

Both of them together appeared in a world of darkness, where a small sphere of chaos coated in muscle fibers glared at them.

Truhan and Celica, for some reason, did not feel fear.

But by glancing at this entity, they felt something familiar.

As if it were their very power, something that always belonged to them.

"Your existence is unique. By merging, you have achieved the requirements to wield me. How wondrous. My last user killed himself out of the constant surge of power that I gave him, do you think that you can control my power, mortals?" asked the sphere, it could talk!

Truhan and Celica glared at each other with warm smiles, remembering their lives up until this point, when they were mere Trolls born to fight and die when they miraculously survived and were given so many opportunities by Kireina…

When they grew stronger and fought against enormous threats one after another.

When they expressed their love to each other every night, embracing the warmness of their love.

When their children were born, the happiest day of their life.

For all of that, and more, they wanted to fight, and win!

"Of course we do!" they said at the same time, jumping towards the sphere and grasping it with their enormous hands!

"Heh, I like your attitude! However, remember that you can only wield my power when you are one!" laughed the sphere, as it engulfed Truhan and Celica's entire being!

FLASH!

In the outside world, Jozrath desperately roared in anger, as it saw Truhan and Celica finally begin to disappear into pieces!

"Hahh… I have… defeated them… Somehow!" said Jozrath, glaring at the last pieces of their bodies disappear…

However.

Flash!

"Eh? N-No way…! Is this some kind of Revival Spell!?" asked Jozrath, as he saw the fused mortals pieces suddenly converge by an overwhelming power that defied reality itself, a Sin!

"That power…!"

"Impossible, a sin?!"

"In here?!"

"They just awakened as a Realm Menace in here?!"

"What is this ridiculous event?!"

Jozrath's eyes flashed with fear!

"W-What…?! Can I even fight against these beings?! You keep coming and coming back! GRRAAAAAAAHH!"

Flash!

However, Truhan and Celica had already merged back from every piece they had left, as their furious and monstrous eyes awakened!

Their combined form resembled the most fearful of demons the Demon Gods themselves had ever seen!

And from its chest, a wrathful presence emerged, constantly surging in power, as if it were limitless!

"This is… Wrath…" muttered Kinesis, glancing at the scene with fascination!

"As one, we are known as the Ream Menace of Wrath!" roared Truhan, and Celica's voices merged as one!

Even Kireina who was fighting took a peek at such splendor, even she was amazed, she did not even predict this outcome!

"That's… amazing. Although I could not predict this outcome, I always knew that they had the potential for more than what they were, to become higher than a mortal while still not being Gods…" thought Kireina, her conviction blazing within her scarlet eyes, as she glanced at her dear friends emerge as a new being!

"GRUUUUOOOOOOHHHH…!" roared Jozrath, frustrated and angered over the ridiculousness of these mortals!

However, Truhan and Celica remained calm, glancing at him.

Despite being Wrath, they were incredibly calm!

How?!

How was it possible for Wrath itself to be so calm?

"So they had completely dominated the Sin…" thought Kireina.

To not be dominated by your Sin is to dominate it, just like Kireina was able to overcome L.u.s.t and make it her complete power, to the point of even ordering it around, Truhan and Celica had made of Wrath their complete power, without being overcome by its fury!

"W-Why are they so calm!? Foolish mortals! Stop being so high up…! I hate those lowly ants that think that they can stand a chance against the strong! I will crush you again if it is necessary until nothing remains! Scatter like ash, pathetic ants!" roared Jozrath, charging towards Truhan and Celica as it grew over one hundred meters, becoming a titanic creature!

However, Truhan and Celica only glanced at him with their blazing eyes, suddenly taking a… stance!

"A stance?!" said Oculus.

"It will decide everything in one single hit…" said Kinesis.

"Do something! We have to save Jozrath!" said Primidone…

However, the other Gods remained in silence.

They did not want to offend their friend, he was giving his all.

They did not want him to be ridiculed against the biggest challenge he had ever come through!

Although Jozrath seemed angered and frustrated, he was brimming with energy as they had never seen him before!

If they were to interfere, Jozrath would never forget them!

"Come at me!" said Truhan and Celica, as Jozrath finally reached them, charging with its hundreds of gigantic horns, clashing against them at last!

"UUUOOOOOH, SHOW ME! SHOW ME WHAT THE SIN OF WRATH TRULY IS ABOUT!" roared Jozrath.

CLASH!

"Divine Wrath Arts: One Million Blazing Fists."

A loud explosion unfolded, as Jozrath was suddenly sent into a strange and warped space.

There, millions of blazing punches began to fall from all sides, hitting his guts, legs, head, face, eyes, ears, tails, back, bones, muscles, and more.

It was as if his perception was able to see through this, but he was barely able to move!

It was everything… way too fast!

"Is this… the Sin of Wrath's complete control!? How… Wonderful! Perhaps Mortals were not… as I thought…! Thanatos… it seems that we cannot keep up with the new generations anymore…" said Jozrath, as it saw its own body explode into pieces, alongside its head, his Divine Soul was torn and fragmented, falling into the ground like broken glass!

Jozrath's last bit of consciousness teleported him to the past, where he met Thanatos for the first time.

At that time, he was not anything else than a lowly Demon Calf.

The day was rainy, and he was getting covered in mud while starving.

Hiding beneath the leaves of a tree, he sighed.

And then, as he was about to sleep, a tiny black spider appeared at his side.

"Hm? A… spider?" wondered the little calf.

"I am no simple spider! I am the one that will one day conquer this world!" the spider said boldly!

"A spider that can talk?! So you're like me… a weirdo…" said the little calf.

"A weirdo? We are not weirdos. We are blessed by human intelligence while being monsters! This gives us enormous potential, little calf! I sensed within your soul that you were not ordinary, join me in my path!" said the spider.

"…Path? What can we even achieve, we are lowly monsters, and humans hunt us for resources…" said the calf.

"Who cares about that?! We will hunt them back and use them as resources then! We are strong, we have the potential, calf… you have to believe in yourself!" said the little spider.

"Believe in me…?" asked the calf.

"If you don't believe in yourself, how can others believe in you?" asked the spider.

"That's…"

For some reason, seeing such a little black spider being so bold and brave made the little calf a bit calmer, and he even felt somehow attracted to its spirit.

If such a little thing was being so brave, why not him, who was at least a few hundreds of times bigger than it?

"…Sigh. Okay then, not like I can lose anything trying…" said the little calf.

"You will not regret it, you and me, will one day become Gods!" said the little spider.

"Gods? Are you crazy or something?" laughed the calf.

"Crazy? Maybe!" said the spider, resting atop the head of the calf.

Such memories slowly fragmented into pieces alongside Jozrath's soul, as he disappeared.

Thanatos glanced at the scene with awe, barely being able to keep up with the Gods attacking him.

"Jozrath… My friend…!" he muttered.

He was Demon God, yet he had a friend.

Thanatos and Jozrath were not simple Demon Gods, they were partners in battle, in wars, and survival.

They were not at all like common Demon Gods, their bonds even resembled those of normal Gods.

The story he shared with this giant bull was more than his enemies could even think of… this rage surged into his soul… as Thanatos grasped something within his Divine Realm…

"GREED!" he roared, as an enormous quantity of darkness surged from his entire self!
