Epic Of Caterpillar

-----

Harmonious Essence, or Chakra for short, was a special Refined Cosmic Energy of an incredibly high tier, first refined by the First Reincarnated Soul, Buddha in the Origin World.

Kireina learned this information carried by the Divine Golden Essence as she absorbed it, realizing the true origins of this wonderful essence.

It contained so many Dao Essences within that it felt utterly overwhelming compared to what she had ever created on her own.

Only making her acquisition of this energy and its crystallization into a permanent Spiritual Heart all the more incredible!

However, there was still something within her mind as she faced the Golden Aura Demon at the same time as Luminous fought the Crimson Aura Demon.

Why was a Demon given such a power, and how was he even able to achieve it? Demons by nature are unharmonious, chaotic, and wrathful.

Even the calmest of Demons she has meet such as Mammon, are too unharmonious and seem to naturally reject "stability" by itself.

"Now that I've gotten a handful of this Chakra Essence, I can't get enough." Kireina spoke. "However, I've been wondering for a while, how was it possible for a Demon like you to obtain this power? Doesn't it go against all rules established?"

"…" The Golden Aura Demon glared at Kireina while sitting cross-legged on the air, gritting his teeth while seeing his soul brother fighting to the death against Luminous.

He wanted to aid him, but he was unable to, Kireina's very presence exuded an endless sea of swirling chaos and demonic authorities that forced him to stay where he was.

Moving closer to her would only end up making him weaker as she absorbed his Chakra, which he finely combined with Infernal Energy to create his amazing abilities.

"Why is one of Buddha's incarnations a Demon from all things?" Kireina squinted her eyes, thinking there was something suspicious about this. "And why is he targeting me and my people so much?"

"My Lord Almighty has no response to your wicked questions." The Golden Aura Demon spoke "I can harness his Divinity because he has allowed me to. I was a small Soul, which had been reincarnating for the last millennia, blessed by him since long ago."

"Oh?" Kireina realized the truth.

"I had become a Demon many times, but my powers were always sealed." He spoke. "However, by reincarnating within an already existing demon with a soul of its own, and giving him two souls, it was possible for me to further evolve my abilities and combine them with the incompatible Demonic Energies which my lord has been trying to harness for eons."

"So that's it… Why are you telling me all of this so freely?" Kireina wondered, shocked he would spill the beans so easily.

"Because my lord has allowed me to." It seemed that Buddha himself had told him to just tell her the truth. "And he, on his undeniable and infinite wisdom and patience, has decided to forgive you, as long as you agree to cooperate with him and become a new Incarnation. He seems future and potential within you… As much as I hate to say it."

"I see…" Kireina nodded. "Buddha, what is your faction?"

Kireina asked the empty air, a message quickly descended upon her.

Ding!

[The Cosmic Throne [Mandala's Guardian] has no faction but is working with those known as the [Usurpers of Destiny].]

[It would be for the best of you to consider allying him. You could get yourself out of their radar and become a valuable asset to their goals of unifying the Origin World.]

[He is being merciful with you; he is still very angered for what you've done!]

"I see, so the Usurpers of Destiny, you're working with them?" Kireina laughed. "What a lame name, really? This is unbelievable. Maybe I'll consider it if you give me some goodies first."

"Y-YOU DARE…?!"

The Golden Aura Demon could not hold his patience any longer, roaring furiously at Kireina for acting so cocky!

Despite this, Buddha gave in to her whims…

Ding!

[The Cosmic Throne [Mandala's Guardian] sighs inwardly…]

[He has sponsored [Divine Cosmic Chakra Elixir (SSS+ Grade)] x5 [Pill of Harmonious Divinity (SSS+ Grade)] x5 and [Treasure of Mandala (SSS+ Grade)] x1!]

Several items materialized in front of Kireina, the Reincarnated Soul he had been sponsoring this entire time was left speechless as he saw her receiving so many goodies!

"I see, good. Very good."

Kireina happily took all the items for herself, storing them inside of her Inventory with a bright and serene smile.

"Alright, thank you so much, Buddha! I'll now proceed to slaughter your Incarnation and stop him from ever Reincarnating again, it would be a pain in the ass to ever see him again." Kireina smiled gently. "To show you my gratitude, I'll even continue insult your fat ass for thinking I would ever join the bastards that attempted to murder me and my mother."

Silence.

Her words came out so gently and well put on that the Golden Aura Demon, for a second, thought she was genuinely grateful and was about to turn on a new leaf.

Even Buddha felt like he had just heard things wrongly…

Ding!

[The Cosmic Throne [Mandala's Guardian] is happy that you've turned on a new leaf-]

[Suddenly he realizes that what you spoke was nothing like he would have imagined.]

[His graceful golden face slowly begins to distort, after being in perpetual calm for millions of years, it changes color to red, and anger surges from his face.]

["YOU WILL BURN IN THE INFERNAL FLAMES OF THE EIGHT HELLS, YOU IMPERTINENT LITTLE BUG!"]

[The Cosmic Throne [Mandala's Guardian] is beginning to forcefully breach the Lower Dimension Veil!]

[The Constellation has begun to forcefully manifest a small part of its True Body towards you, aiming to destroy you!]

[The [Dimensional Will] has begun to desperately apply penalties to the Cosmic Throne.]

TRUUUMM…!!!

An enormous light surged from the skies, piercing Kireina's Domain and shattering, a massive palm emerged, composed of countless threads of pure divine light…

Crimson lighting chains was attempting to restrain it, the very Will of the Dimension Kireina was living in.

After all, Constellations were, most of the time, interdimensional beings that were too strong to be contained within one!

The inhabitants of Ravenfolt, the Vampires, the Dragons, everyone saw into the skies, as a Divine Golden Palm broke through space itself and descended towards Kireina.

"W-What's happening?!" Yvnei cried.

"S-Such Divinity…! By merely watching it, it feels like I can't breathe…!" Odanth groaned in pain.

"T-That's… is this the power of a being beyond our Realm?" Nannet glanced into the skies.

The piercing palm of judgement that buddha released on his utter disbelief, anger, and punishing wrath descended further!

He was not wrong… 

Patience has its Limits!

"KUAHAHAHA! You will now be purged by his Divine Palm, KIREINA!"

As the Golden Aura Demon laughed, Kireina simply… snapped her fingers.

"This is perfect, actually."

FLAAAASH!

Suddenly, space around the Divine Palm that slowly descended and broke through all things distorted, a black chaotic spatial portal opened.

And with the coordination of two Supreme Gods which Kireina had swiftly spoken through telepathy, the massive Divine Palm of Buddha appeared right above the Outer God that was trying to invade the Spiritual Plane!

"[Dimensional Gate]!"

Lucifer smiled with Aura, the two conjuring a gigantic Dimensional Gate above The Eternal Darkness!

The Tentacled Eldritch Horror was completely and utterly shaken as he saw the hand of a Constellation descending towards his face.

"What the…?!"

BAAAAAAMMMM!!!
