Epic of Caterpillar

187 Ailine\'s Promising Future

"See, mama? Let me do one more! Gugug-"

Before Ailine could chant once again her self-made spell, I stopped her before another catastrophic disaster happened, covering her mouth with my hands.

"Ailine! You need to control yourself…!"

"Eeehhh? B-But mama, you don\'t like Ailine…? I did a big booooom!"

"Y-Yeah that was certainly impressive, but you don\'t have to send it to the city! All those people there are my servants and are very useful in the production of items and such, let\'s go try out your powers in the outskirts, okay?"

Quickly understanding what I meant, Ailine nodded as she tried to apologize.

"I understand… I\'m sorry, mama… Ailine didn\'t want to kill mama\'s servants"

"I-Its fine, it was just a mistake! I still love you, my daughter. Let\'s go train your powers"

As I patted Ailine, I kneeled and gave her a kiss in her forehead. After this show of affection, her pearl-like rainbow eyes shined brightly as she blushed.

"Aah! Does Mama love Ailine? Forgives Ailine?"

"Of course! Just don\'t do it again"

"Ailine will obey mama, Ailine is a good girl!"

As I guided Ailine towards the outskirts, Rimuru accompanied us, she was packing a lot of food in her Item Box as she was planning us to have a picnic in the outskirts, only the three of us.

When we reached the outskirts there wasn\'t any monster around, but I just had to use my fragrance, working as an alluring drug to bring some big boys outside of the small forests around.

Ailine was surprised over all her potential targets as her magical energy intensified, her aura became like an endless rainbow that went through the sky as it quickly created a pseudo-domain, increasing her magic capabilities even more.

The pressure she put in the monsters approaching was so tremendous that they suddenly stopped charging in as they only admired her power, not even trying to escape, but seemed to have completely submitted to her.

"Aah! So obedient! Now prepare to receive my attack! Gugugu! Colorful Arrow Storm!"

FLASH!

Suddenly, it felt as if the space surrounding Ailine was bent to her will as the magic in the environment began to materialize in hundreds of multi-colored giant arrows, each one being over five meters in length.

"S-Such power… And she was just born…"

Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash!

As thousands of giant colorful arrows rained over the submissive monsters, because they didn\'t even struggle, they died in the spot, completely turning into a pile of meat paste, painting the whole area in a scarlet red.

"Guaaah! Ailine is strong! See, mama? I gained a level! Hmm… What is level?"

I also explained Ailine the power of my blessing and its shareable trait. After hearing that she could gain abilities by eating monsters, she quickly rushed towards the pile of minced monsters as she shapeshifted into her slime form and digested everything in less than five seconds.

"Gulp! Aah! I gained a lot of skills!"

"Well done, make sure to always eat what you kill, Ailine. It would be a waste to leave it to rot"

"I understand, guu!"

As I instructed Ailine, Rimuru was cooking a delicious hot pot at our side, with a happy and serene expression, she admired her daughter power as I taught her different things.

After inspecting Ailine some more, I discovered some new things about her. First of all, she isn\'t a Vampire and does not possess the need to consume blood like my other children. This is probably my first child without inheriting this trait. She also doesn\'t have horns or anything like that, which seemed to be another trait inherited from me. Her eyes aren\'t scarlet either, being the second child without inheriting my eye color.

She was a very unique girl and she really just reminded me of Rimuru, for a moment, I wondered if Slimes reproduce by Mitosis, it probably means that their children are usually clones of them. However, because Rimuru used my seed as a component in Ailine\'s creation, it became more than just a clone, and acquired unique traits, becoming my daughter.

I also inspected her Slime Core with more detail and discovered that this was the "connection" that we felt with each other, my seed seems to have created this core, were Ailine\'s soul is contained alongside most of her magic. Unlike Rimuru who had her soul distributed through her entire body, Ailine only had it in one single spot, that could also mean a big weakness. I taught her some Shield and Barrier Magic so she could guard her Slime Core against attacks.

While Rimuru was preparing the food, Ailine decided to expand her magic pressure pseudo-domain around as she tried to see her limits, and it seemed to be able to expand over two hundred meters, already surpassing Truhan\'s Inferno Domain, that only affects around one hundred and fifty meters around him.

Ailine\'s domain is incredibly useful as she can not only use it to pressure low-magic beings, but it can be used while supporting. She can easily adapt to the nature of her domain and transform it into a healing domain, Magic Boosting domain, or even increase the power of a certain element while lowering others. The variety of uses that her domain possessed was incredibly absurd as even when Rimuru was calling us for lunch, Ailine was still discovering new ways to use her domain powers.

As we ate, I wondered how was Ailine able to transform into a humanoid form if she wasn\'t blessed by the Demi-Goddess of Slime and Water Blooia. I remembered that when she was born, she needed tons of food before transforming, and another thing is that her transformation is fairly different than Rimuru. Rimuru can shapeshift easily without any necessity of magic, but Ailine had to activate her Slime Core as if her transformation was a power of hers innate to her magic capabilities.

Aside from this, she also showed the ability to summon a beautiful multi-colored Magician set, which seemed to be her natural [Organic Armor] and [Organic Weapon], she was able to summon them naturally as if she always knew about them.

After further inspecting, I discovered that this set was named [Prestigious Merlin Apprentice Celestial Set], and was related to her blessing with the [God of Wizardly Merlin] … To think that the equivalent of Merlin in this world is a god…

As Ailine happily ate her mother\'s cooking, I appraised her stats, however, just as I did it, she noticed immediately. She seems to have a very high perception of magic and skills.

"G-Geh! O-Over one thousand MP and Magic?!"

"Hm? Mama, what is it?"

"I was just watching your status Ailine, I was just impressed over your incredible MP and Magic stats…"

"Aah! Ailine is strong! Ailine will protect mothers!"

Over our daughter\'s adorable statement, we hugged Ailine while patting her head. Rimuru kissed her several times in her cheeks and forehead, as our daughter released a happy chuckle.

I couldn\'t believe that my daughter was born with the stats that took me so long to obtain! It must be because of the evolution she went through inside of Rimuru, when she evolved. This must somehow have forced an evolution in her, increasing her stats through the roof.

For a moment, I considered the possibility of wives to evolving while having children, so the children are always born even stronger. For example, Mady had already evolved with our three children inside of her belly, but what if she evolves a second time before they are born? How strong would they be…?

I wondered if this could also be used in my soldiers, like the Yuki-Onna, forcing them to evolve while their children are still in their bellies, making them be born even stronger with higher base stats and unique species.

However, it was not the time to concentrate on such things, as I enjoyed the afternoon alongside Rimuru and Ailine without caring about anything else, for a moment I only wanted to enjoy this moment of peace and tranquility for eternity.

After eating to our heat\'s content, I resumed Ailine\'s magical training, where her mother Rimuru joined as well. Rimuru is already an amazing mage that can even cast Transcendent Magic, so her teachings were of great help for Ailine, especially because both of them have a similar personality and can understand each other with ease.

I compared Ailine Nine Colors Magic to Rimuru\'s Nine Spirits Magic, and it indeed had its differences, however, they were both incredibly powerful. Ailine can drag power from the "Colors" of the world, naturally gaining magic from practically anything, the more colorful, the better.

The interesting thing is that depending on which area she is, the nature of her magic may change to the dominant color. For example, a place near a volcano will give her lots of "Red" and "Orange", which she can use to cast powerful Fire and Lava magic, and even Rock and Earth.

However, she can still cast almost any element and even fuse them to create even more Colors, surpassing the Nine original colors. She only obtains power in high concentrations of colors in that certain element, but does not restrict her from using other types of elements, and even change the colors of the environment to her advantage using her domain.

Ailine was full of surprises and powers I have never seen. In a sense, she could be considered a Pseudo Spirit, as she can drag magic and MP from the environment through their Colors.

Rimuru is still not able to drag power from her environment, even after eating Spirits she still hasn\'t obtained such a Skill, however, perhaps in her next evolution, she will surpass her daughter, who was already born stronger than her magic wise.

As we slowly went back to Athetosea, Ailine killed several hundreds of monsters that came our way, lured by my fragrances. She already hit level fifteen by the end of her casual hunt. Even the strongest Kaiser level monsters died immediately after receiving an attack on her colorful spells.

Ailine also realized that she could even use the colors in the blood of monsters and successfully learned how to use Blood Magic, something that shouldn\'t even be possible in a Slime Species that it\'s not vampire or demon related, it was quite mind-blowing. Perhaps one day she will learn how to use Time and Dream Magic… Maybe if I show her some Soul Cores, she can learn Soul Magic as well?

"Mama, mama! Did ya see? I did a big kaboom! I can control blood now! I will make a big weapon made of blood! Gugugu!"

Suddenly, Ailine gathered all the blood of the monsters and suddenly created a gigantic crimson claymore, which was as sturdy as adamantine. I decided to lure even more monsters as they frantically rushed towards us. Ailine raised her tiny hands as she chanted.

"Gugugu! Bloody Claymore!"

FLASH!

BOOOOM!

The massive blood claymore flew at incredible speeds as it clashed in the giant group of monsters, the ones that somehow manage to survive were killed as the Claymore released tiny and sharp daggers everywhere. I discovered that she was even able to control an already released spell to such an extent.

"Aah! I leveled a lot! Hmm! Delicious monshters!"

As I saw my adorable daughter slowly digest the pile of massacred monsters, I couldn\'t help but feel a little bit frightened by her powers, not even Valentia was this destructive… Ailine will need to be taught constantly how to use her powers to not create catastrophes in my Kingdom…

When we reached the Athetosea Castle, I rushed towards Brontes and woke her up to have a small lunch with her, she still wanted to rest afterward so I didn\'t bother her until dinner. I passed the rest of the day with my five children going around, doing different small activities. I also came across my wives and interacted with each one.

As it was time for dinner, I had dinner with my family and then with Brontes in her room, because I\'ve left out some of my wives, I decided to pass the night with them.

I decided to pass the night with Charlotte, Lilith, and Altani in a separate room, however, Ismena, Acelina, and Nanako joined in. Because the cooldown for [Male Human Physique] had ended, I made sure to impregnate the thirsty Royal Girls alongside Nanako.

Although they had already experienced something similar when I molded my body obtaining a pseudo male genital, they were still surprised as I used the real deal. In the end, all the Humans passed out over exhaustion while being filled with my seed, only leaving Nanako thirsty for more.

A child with Nanako will be certainly very strong and unique, and I was looking forward to having a little Dodomeki daughter or son following me around with a cute and small kimono and wood sandals, like a small version of Nanako. I passionately released my lust over Nanako\'s inviting body even after my transformation ended.

When it was finally over and Nanako\'s surge of energy finally dimmed, I left her sleeping alongside my other wives as I sneakily walked towards Brontes room, and slept at her side while caressing her golden hair.
