Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 647 - Everyone Want to Fuse!

Today as I was having breakfast with my whole family, I went into more details about my new capabilities, while also speaking with the Gods of my Pantheon through Agatheina\'s Artifact.

"Eh?! Isn\'t the Divine Dungeon Shop incredible?! With that… we truly have endless possibilities!" Zehe said in disbelief, as I had finished explaining the capabilities of the Divine Dungeon Shop, that allowed me to buy an incredibly vast list of items in exchange for Divine Dungeon Shop.

"Ah yeah, it came with the perks of well… becoming a Dungeon myself," I said.

"You already told us that you got a ton of new capabilities after having eaten a single Dungeon Core… but to think that you even got such a feature through the System… Well, it was to be expected from our wife," said Nesiphae with a teasing smile.

"It is just as Nesiphae-sama says, Kireina-sama! It is indeed to be expected from such a unique, wonderful, amazing, incredibly talented, outstanding, overwhelmingly beautiful, superior above all being such as yourself! I cannot fathom my fascination over such event, Kireina-samaaaaaaaaaaa~!" said Agatheina as she seemed to be having a stroke, she was overly excited and began to cry like a maniac.

"H-Hey, Agatheina, hang in there!" said Merveim.

"She\'s… spasming?!" asked Hodhyl.

"Wait, seriously? Calm her down!" said Marnet.

"Uuhh… Maybe this can calm her down?" said Kaggoth, as the sound of water splashing over Agatheina was heard.

Splash!

"Ugaaaaaaahhh~!" groaned Agatheina, seemingly being brought back to reality.

"Agatheina, are you okay there?" I asked.,

"Ahem… Agh, I-I am fine now, Kireina-sama… P-Please forgive me, I was a bit… too excited for my own good, it seems," said Agatheina.

"What a crazy goddess, gu," said Rimuru.

"Well, we should have gotten used to her by this point," said Oga, shrugging.

"She is truly quite the maniac woman, I am not too fond of her yet," said Alice with her crimson eyes releasing a sharp scarlet light.

"Alice-sama, I believe that is because of the natural rivalry between you and any other Vampire," said Jonette.

"Hm, perhaps…" said Alice.

"I would prefer if you and Agatheina were never to fight, Alice, so please calm down, she\'s an ally now," I said.

"A-Ah… A-Alice-sama, please do not misunderstand me, I am clearly aware of your superiority and higher rank in Kireina-sama\'s hierarchy! I am not willing to fight with any of her family members nor friends, nor allies…" said Agatheina.

"Hmm… Very well then, you may continue…" said Alice while sipping some blood. She was often overly dominant with other Vampires, but that was part of her charm as a Vampire Ruler… which I liked a lot.

…Hey, I am not a masochist or anything, but when it comes to my Alice… Ah, I like her too well, dominate me in bed.

Okay, I better not say anything more before stepping into the cringe zone.

Anyways, all of the Gods were very surprised over the capabilities that I had acquired, such as the massive cheat of the Divine Dungeon Shop.

"Could it be possible to purchase literally anything that has ever been made by the System there?!" asked Levana.

"I believe so, although items that are very strong, such as weapons, artifacts, and many others, can only be purchased once, however, consumable items such as Elixirs can be purchased up to a few more, the biggest purchase limit I\'ve seen is fifty," I said.

"But isn\'t that awesome enough?! I remember there being always amazing items that were always useful when we opened the reward loot boxes and such, are there items like those? And you can even search them as you like, even to the point of filtering the categories?!" asked Lilith.

"Yes, there are some very unique items, and I even found some of those Elixirs, the ones that you girls drank to acquire a hint of Divine Power within your souls… I believe that if you drink another one, you might become even stronger," I said.

"Is that so?!" asked Oga in surprise.

"Maybe we could finally be more useful," said Sofarpia.

"Indeed, we might even be capable of eating Gods so we can assist Kireina-sama even better while protecting our family and nation," said Sofelaia.

"Those elixirs are very unique, Kireina-sama, use and buy them wisely, as I believe that the amount that you can buy is very limited, the wielders of such power have to be chosen with care," said Agatheina.

"Indeed, aside from my wives, I have planned which ones will get the rest… Such as Wagyu, Truhan\'s family, and so on," I said.

"Yeah, they\'re the ones that deserve it the most," said Brontes.

"Indeed, they\'re loyal and good friends, they\'re clearly more deserving of them than anyone," said Mady.

"Going back to the topic, what more items are there? Is there really just no end, whatever you ask for, will be there?" asked Maeralya from within Agatheina\'s Artifact.

"I don\'t believe that it is a wish machine, but it does have an immense catalog of items, to the point that almost anything that I might need might be there… of course, there is always a price," I said.

"Wait, even super rare Skills, Divine Techniques… o-or Divinity Fragments Elixirs, like those you find in rewards sometimes?" asked Levana.

"…Yes, I checked that too, and there they were, Divinity Fragment Elixirs which were mostly of all the basic attributes and some that contained combinations between them, but there weren\'t crazy divinities, just the very basic ones," I said.

"But that would be amazing by itself, perhaps you could buy those and strengthen your divinities, Kireina-sama!" said Agatheina.

"Yes, but the prices are high, the cheaper of these Divinity Fragment Elixirs was named \'Lesser Demi-Divinity Fragment Elixir\', and it cost over a Million Dungeon Points," I said.

"Oh…" muttered Agatheina.

"Indeed, the shop is amazingly tentative, there is a lot of things, but it all costs a lot! However, there were still certain items, scrolls, and artifacts, that I was able to afford and that could bring some strength to me, and well, there was also a large catalog of Skills Scrolls for almost every Skill that I could imagine or come out with, although I don\'t need much of that as such Skills are very weak and I can get them by eating more Monsters, there are certain skills that people cannot easily get even with my shared Devour through my Blessing, such as the Fusion Skills," I said.

"T-The Fusion Skills! They are there?!" asked Nixephine.

"Oh right, the Fusion Skills!" said Nefertiti.

"H-Honey!" said Zehe with puppy eyes.

"With them… our dream can come true?!" said Nesiphae.

"Then we can simply fuse with Kireina-sama and inherit Divinity Devouring as Rimuru did!" said Altani.

"Guu!" said Rimuru.

"Fusing should be our priority now," said Brontes.

"Fusion! How majestic! If we can fuse together, will we become as strong as our children?" asked Nephiana.

"This is amazing, isn\'t it? I can\'t wait! Kireina-sama, please!" said Kaguya.

"My wife, I order you to buy them," said Adelle.

"You shouldn\'t be ordering Kireina-sama around, Adelle… But I can\'t help but agree with you!" said Gaby.

"I believe that true Fusion might bring an excellent power boost to all of us," said Mady.

"Can\'t we already like… Fuse through the Transformation Equipment?" asked Nanako with a confused expression, she was one of the few girls that did not seem to care much about fusion.

"Yeah, but it is clearly different, Nanako-chan! And we could even fuse while also fusing with the Transformation Body Suits! Imagine the amount of power we could amass!" said Acelina.

"I am not too much into this, but it does sound exciting…" said Ismena.

"Let us fuse! We\'ll break all our enemy\'s bones with that power!" said Oga.

"If we can truly fuse, it should be possible for all of us to bring forth enough strength to obliterate those that oppose our peace and happiness," said Sofarpia.

"Indeed, sister, I believe so as well, Kireina-sama, we must fuse," said Sofelaia.

"You girls… I will fuse first!" said Lilith.

"Lilith takes your turn…" said Charlotte menacingly.

"Hoh? Wanna wrestle for it?" asked Lilith.

"Wait, wait, girls, don\'t fight for it!" I said, calming down Lilith who had gotten all pumped up for it.

"What? What are you girls talking about?" asked Nereid.

"Nereid-chan, fusing is a very amazing thing, two people become one! Wouldn\'t it be the most wonderful of things to fuse with Kireina-sama, our beloved?" said Kaguya.

"Kaguya… So that is! Then it would be indeed quite good, I also heard that we can get Divinity Devouring, is that what Master uses to eat Gods?" asked Nereid.

"Indeed, Nereid-chan, it is a very powerful skill, if we manage to get it, we might become even more useful for Kireina-sama and our nation," said Alice.

"Hm, I want to fuse too," said Kjata with a cute smile.

"F-Fuse? What might happen with t-the e-eggs?" asked Ocypete.

"I doubt they would be destroyed or anything, I bet they end up becoming even stronger," said Smilkas.

"I have fused with Kireina-sama a few times, and I can confirm to you that it is completely safe, and even more, it brings a lot of power, guu!" said Rimuru.

"How much does that desired power cost in the Divine Dungeon Shop, Kireina-sama?" asked Agatheina with a fervent voice.

"Well, there are three Skills that seem to be needed, unlike my fusion with Rimuru, which can be done easily because she\'s a slime, for the rest, even the Spirits, it is needed more than one Skill. I asked AI-chan, the personalized Divine Dungeon Shop Assistant that helps me out, and she said that the three Skills, Fusion, Body Merge, and Soul Merge, are required in both of the people that are performing the fusion for it to work properly, if one of the Skills is missing, it might cause irreparable damage… Each Skill costs fifteen thousand Dungeon Points, and I have around one hundred and seventy thousand points… I would need around twenty-four of each one… that will up the price up to… almost one million Dungeon Points…" I said… everyone then seemed to have fallen down in spirits.

"Oh…" muttered Zehe.

"I guess it is too much…" said Nesiphae.

"We can\'t afford it for now…" said Brontes.

"Haaahh…" sighed Lilith.

"That\'s it…" said Charlotte.

"W-Wait, girls you look like you\'re about to die, hang in there!" I said, as someone else, that I did not expect, came out with an idea.

"Hm, do you really need to buy so many, Kireina-sama? I remember that you are capable of creating artifacts with Skill effects, often of Skills that you possess… Can\'t you create something like Rings for this? You could even incorporate the Skills into the Transformation Equipment," said Oga, having yet another moment of brightness.

"Wait, what?" asked Zehe.

"Is that really Oga?" asked Nesiphae.

"Are my eyes not deceiving me?" asked Lilith.

"I might be blind…" muttered Mady.

"Oga just suggested a very good idea?" asked Charlotte.

"Guuu…" said Rimuru.

"H-Hey, stop messing with me! I am not a dummy! I know my stuff!" said Oga while crossing her arms.

However, Oga had an amazing and genius idea. That I had my mind into so many other things that I never… just figured out. It was simply common sense… Oga was quite intelligent, to be honest.

"You\'re right, Oga! You\'re a genius!" I said, kissing Oga who happened to be near me, as I flew towards her and sat down in her legs.

"Ah! I-Is that so?" she said while blushing.

"Yeah! Actually, I can do that! It has become very simple to infuse Skill effects into equipment at this point, and since I awakened Divine Subclass Fields, it might be even easier now! I just have to buy the Scrolls, perhaps more than one of each, and then get to it! After the first prototypes are done, it will be a walk in the park to infuse them into the newest Transformation Equipment!" I said.

"Uwah! Really?! Then our wish to become one with Kireina-sama might come faster than we thought!" said Kaguya.

"So we won\'t need to train our Slime Shapeshifting?" asked Sofarpia.

"I recommend you do that still, it is very beneficial, and it might facilitate the fusion," I said.

"Eeeh? Really?" asked Sofelaia.

"Yeah! I guess your task until I manage to get the Equipment is for all of you to train those Skills," I said, many of the girls sighed, they really didn\'t like much of the feeling of it, but the Slime Shapeshifting Skill brought a lot of flexibility to their fighting styles, the ability to increase or decrease their size, to increase their regeneration, and many other things.

"Kireina-sama, the ability that you have to suddenly resolve any problem is outstanding, I am looking forward to your next creation," said Agatheina.

"Now that we got that out of the way, Kireina-sama… my Sisters have been molesting me a lot lately…" muttered Levana.

"Levana doesn\'t annoy Kireina-sama!" said Agatheina, as she turned off the artifact.

Ah right, the Dark Steppes Gods still want my humble mercenary work… That God is taking its time to awaken from the seal, but through all of these days, Hephaestus might have been doing many other things in the shadows, I have to remain cautious… while at home, of course.

The creation of the Fusion artifact began today, as I ended up using 45 Dungeon Points to buy one Skill Scroll of each Skill, which I then learned without problems, despite having Skills that might be very similar.

[Kireina] purchased the [Mythical Skill Scroll: Fusion (Mythical+++)] [15.000 DP], [Mythical Skill Scroll: Body Merge (Mythical+++)] [15.000 DP], and [Mythical Skill Scroll: Soul Merge (Mythical+++)] [15.000 DP] Items for [45.000 DP]!]

[Kireina] has learned the following Skills]

[Fusion: Level 1]

[Body Merge: Level 1]

[Soul Merge: Level 1]

Time to get to it.

I gathered with the rest of my people from the crafting and alchemy workshop, alongside many of my Slime Clones and Kiroid, to begin the creation of an accessory containing these Skills.

The infusion of Skills could be done through several methods, but the easiest one was to simply create them through my Equipment Materialization Skill, through my own mind, and by consuming a few hundreds of thousands of Magic Cores, I managed to spit out a pile of accessories containing the Skills, now the hard part was to actually implement them into stronger equipment without them losing their effects. These days will be quite busy.
