Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 1066 - What Are Eras?

Eras, the weirdest concept I\'ve heard in these last hours. I mean, I know what Eras are, in the common term, but all of this happening feels way too crazy. How can just me existing as a supreme influence the world is such a way?

"Well, when you became a Supreme Goddess your very being became part of the world. Your soul and your divinity, due to this, you have to imagine the world as a giant divine realm, the more you infuse an element into it, the more it will develop that element on its surroundings." Said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"This is why your Chaos element, as the strongest and newest into this world, infected a large chunk of it. Your other major elements such as Illusion and Dreams also seemed to affect it. Due to this, several natural disasters happened. Chaos energy gathered in one place and formed Chaotic Rifts which lead to a place where only demonic chaos monsters emerge from, or Chaotic Dungeons filled with chaotic challenges, or several other things such as mutagenic miasma expanding and mutating beasts… And it seems that apparently the Death Attribute within you triggered another thing, which also seems to be related with Hel later on… I don\'t know how this is even possible, but it seems that she had become a Supreme Goddess through some underhanded method, such as betraying the entire world and allying with outside forces," said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Aside from the initial incident… Right, the Death Crypts and Graveyards? And my Era also made these Necrotic Rifts emerge, right? What are those Undead coming from them?" I asked.

"Those Undead are something similar to the Gates of Hell demons, they came here to conquer the world or merely expand their influences… We need to further investigate these dangerous individuals before we make further assumptions. But it might appear to be the case that these sickos are up to something not good." Said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"If it wasn\'t obvious enough, she seems to feel rather disgusted with the new existence of a Supreme of Death and the End, so she had begun to detest Hel even more." Laughed the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Shut up you idiot!" sighed the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"But isn\'t this bad?! And what about those Undead Gods? I\'ve heard already that several Gods whose bodies and souls had died began to re-emerge inside these graveyards as Undead Gods or Zombie Gods… What is this all about?" I asked.

The supreme gods looked at one another and then explained to me.

"This is the power of the Death Era, it can even revive souls that are long gone, however, only those that died near the graveyards will revive, not every single dead god." Said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"Indeed, these Gods are certainly not much, there hasn\'t even been a Supreme that died, I believe, so them awakening into Zombie\'s ahs no weight on us, it is more like just decoration at this point, nothing you cannot easily handle with a bit of your presence or something." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"But about Hel! I bet she used some underhanded method to become a Supreme Goddess… That damn little girl! I should had squished her before it was too long and just give the Death Spirit True Divinity to the Supreme of Souls and Reincarnation anyways." Sighed the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"Now that she\'s a Supreme Goddess, she won\'t go down as easily…" said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Indeed, what a pain, I had just planned to go met her." I sighed.

"Why?" asked the two.

"You see… I got an old friend, a necromancer named Redgaria…"

I explained them the story behind Redgaria, the seclusive Necromancer Great God that assisted in the most recent war with his army of divine undead troops. This whole time I had not forgotten the promise I gave to him, that we were going to go to Helheim and get his damn sister\'s soul back.

And I don\'t forget promises! If you doubt about it, I have already bedded all the girls left in the list last night! Yeah, it was intense.

Anyways, this is not the topic right now.

"I see… So you\'ve kept a promise to this mortal this whole time." Said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"How noble of you, Kireina. I never expected this side of you, but knowing it only makes it sweeter to be your ally." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"S-Shut up! Who do you think you\'re teasing, mass of spatial gases?! I am the supreme of chaos!" I roared.

"Haha! I love how disrespectful you are towards me, an authority that has lived for thousands of years!" laughed the Supreme God of Star Oceans. He was quite the handful.

"So you like being insulted? Living fart!" I laughed.

"Hahaha! Living fart? Hahahaha! By the stars, you\'re really imaginative." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean. He wasn\'t being ironic; he was actually laughing at it. He\'s a pretty chill guy.

"I feel like I should leave you two lovebirds…" said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin while squinting her eyes.

"Lovebirds? W-What are you implying?!" I asked.

"Haha! No worries, please stay with us." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Anyways, it is interesting that you want to fight a Supreme Goddess out of a promise with a measly mortal… But fine, do whatever you want, I guess. But you must prepare if you ever plan to get to Helheim. After she became a Supreme Goddess, the entire place turned into her Supreme Domain. And she also has allies from the Netherworld. Both of them are beings… Around Supreme God Level too… And they\'re just casually here?! How strong is that Netherworld… perhaps the same as the Gates of Hell, but unlike the Gates of Hell, they can move freely inside, while the True Archdemons are confined in the depths of hell and can only come in avatars…" said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"No, I have a theory regarding that! It is impossible for beings with a different origin such as them to freely come here and do as they please! I believe that Hel can allow them to be within her Supreme Domain as it serves as a link between the Netherworld and Genesis. In fact, this link she creates with her Supreme Domain was formed because she is born in Genesis but became a Supreme Goddess through a special method from the Netherworld Plane." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"But they got in here and handled her the fruit before that happened." Said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"Indeed, maybe they were only able to get in here temporarily. What they desire is probably to infect the entire world with Death Attribute, making it a suitable place for their kin to live and conquer… the same way the Demons have been trying to infuse their demonic energy and all sorts of beasts and demon races here, but through our suppression, that hasn\'t worked well, and they ended being assimilated into our monster systems and dungeons at the end." Laughed the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Interesting, you got a good point there, Stars." I said.

"Stars? Is this my new name? Hahaha! Then I shall call you, little caterpillar." laughed the Supreme God of Star Oceans.

"What?! Don\'t call me like that!" I said.

"Enough of your tomfoolery, just find a bed to do it and be done with this teasing game already…" sighed the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"W-What are you talking about? Stop implying things, you\'re quite a pervert, aren\'t you, Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin?" I asked.

"E-Eeeeh? How dare you call me a pervert! I am the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin! More respect with your elders, little caterpillar!" said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"Kireina seems to be a fascinating woman. You never get bored with her." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean, his stars shone brightly every time he looked at me.

Okay I get it; he likes me a lot! Right, fine. Okay…

And he\'s constantly implying it every time.

I am not so dense, alright?!

But for now, I am enjoying the friendship.

"Anyways, is there a way to stop her Domain?" I wondered.

"I don\'t know, other than merely suppressing it…" said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Hmm… Well, if we had a certain goddess, who is the opposite of Hel… and who is way stronger…" I sighed, looking at the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

Stars also looked at her, and she began to get a bit red.

"I-I already said I wasn\'t going to help! Even if it would be incredible easy for me to suppress that detestable presence that make some want to puke- Alright, I\'ll help. I really want to get rid of the presence and pestilence," She sighed.

"Nice!" the Supreme God of Star Ocean and I said this at the same time.

"But four Supreme God presences in the same place would make a fuss. Those Undead at supreme god level can somehow not suppress the world nor each other\'s with their supreme auras, but if we do it ourselves, we\'ll make the world tremble… So I will only aid you in suppressing her Domain… And not today! I am going to go prepare, mostly, I want to spend some time with my daughters…" sighed the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"Thank you, that\'s enough." I said.

"Indeed, you\'re doing us a good favor, Flora." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"D-Don\'t reveal my true name like that, idiot Aura!" sighed the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"OH?! So you two are named like that! Flora and Aura! I see. Hahaha! I finally learned your names! Prepare to be showered with curses and- Joking." I said.

I found out they actually began to freak out. Maybe because I am the Supreme of Chaos, they actually believed I can make a curse that affects someone by just knowing their true name? Come on… Actually, I think I can.

"I was going to tell you my name anyways… But indeed! I am Aura! This is my true name bestowed to me upon the glorious stars when I was born." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"The stars?" I asked.

"Yes, the stars named me. I am part of an ancient Race named Starmen, the tribe thrives inside of my divine realm. One of our customs was to be named according to the position of stars when we were born, hence, Aura, my name." said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Ooh, that\'s interesting." I said.

"Is it? I am glad you find some interest in me. I am also intrigued why you\'re named Kireina." Said the Supreme God of Star Ocean.

"Ah, that\'s because the asshole of the System Master named me like that. It means beautiful in Japanese, a tongue of the original world where my memories come from." I said.

"Oh… I see! It fits you, you\'re indeed the most beautiful woman I\'ve ever seen in my entire life, in all my years." Said the Supreme God Star Ocean.

"Aw, now you\'re just flattering me, that won\'t get you anywhere!" I said.

"It is an actual fact, I think you\'re prettier than all the Supreme Goddess too." Said the Supreme God Star Ocean.

"O-Okay! I get it, fine, just cut it off…" I sighed.

"I wonder what child might come out of two Supreme Gods like you two… Probably something devastating." Said the Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin.

"D-Don\'t talk about such weird topics!" I cried.

Hm, oh right, I should tell her about Gaia…

"Anyways, Supreme Goddess of Life and Origin. Talking about daughters… one of my lovely wives is one of your daughters." I said.

"EH?!"
