Epic Of Caterpillar

SLASH!

Each slash on her body and soul made Kireina remember another memory of this nebulous past, of these "sisters" and their tyrannical reign over countless dimensions.

SLASH!

They were beings beyond her wildest imagination, and she was their beloved little sister, rebellious, and incapable of being as evil as they were.

SLASH!

This whole time, Kireina has been moving over a thin thread between good and evil, sometimes going too far in her acts, but other times redeeming herself by being compassionate and merciful.

SLASH!

Although she still regrets the overly malicious things she did before, it wasn't as if they would stop being part of what she was…

SLASH!

However, compared to what these sisters ever did, it could be said she was a saint.

"Hahahah! Are you enjoying these memories deep within your Origin, Kireina?!" Nirvana laughed. "Do you see what you truly are now?! DO YOU SEE?!"

As Nirvana laughed by cutting down Kireina, a gigantic dragon claw reached him. Luminous appeared behind him at lightning speed, turning his body into pure primordial light and then reappearing at his side.

He was struggling against giant Buddha palms emerging from the ground and was unable to help Kireina until now.

"DAMMIT KIREINA! Don't let that bastard get to you! You're not that fragile, aren't you?!"

"You damn lizard!"

Luminous claws pierced through the Mandala Circles after being boosted by the power of many Path Jewels Luminous had commissioned to be custom-made for him by Kireina, his power growing to a completely new level as he "equipped" them within his soul.

"[Path Jewel Aura]: [Primordial Light Dragon God's Sun Claws]!"

CLAASH! CLAASH! CLAASH! 

"Dammit!"

Nirvana was swiftly dragged away, Kireina's consciousness came back in a second after she freed herself using her own Mandala powers, and broke through it, regenerating back from the torn pieces.

The golden flames left behind by Nirvana, which should have hurt her and inhibited her regeneration, didn't work, no matter how hard he tried.

She simply devoured them and absorbed their power, further enhancing her comprehension of the "True Harmony" Aspect that Buddha had created for his Ascension.

"NIRVANA!"

She was furious after she was forced to see more of those detestable memories. Of how her sisters destroyed Lesser Dimensions after finding their Cores, of how many innocent lives were lost, and how they killed the friends her previous self had made because "it made her weaker"!

"I didn't need to learn those damned memories, they're nothing but a damn nuisance!"

With a ferocious roar, her Chaotic Demonic Blazing Cosmic Sea Aura waved rapidly, a sea of endlessly swirling chaos and demonic flames surged, combining together.

"[Primordial Ocean Queen's Almighty Trident: Oceanus]!"

She activated her Primordial Ocean Queen's Authority strongest ability, summoning a gigantic Cosmic Relic shining with countless black stars and black oceanic essence.

It grew into a massive trident, overflowing with all the power she held!

"A Cosmic Relic?!"

Nirvana and Buddha were both shocked as they saw Kireina unleash even more of the powers they had not expected of her.

"RAAAAHHH!"

With a furious and frustrated roar, Kireina, who had been struggling against Nirvana, descended as rapidly as she could, piercing Mandala's defenses.

"STOP!"

He conjured hundreds of golden Buddha calms, but Kireina pierced them one after another, shattering them into pieces.

CRAAASH!

The damage the trident could deal had skyrocketed thanks to having been made out of not just Primordial Sea, but one modified by her fusing it over with the rest of her Authorities.

The trident finally managed to reach his body, only for him to conjure a golden barrier surrounding his body, seemingly attempting to negate all damage.

BAAAMMM!!

"Hahahah! You can't damage me! I am invincible as long as I am in complete har... mony?"

However, the barrier of golden light slowly started to melt away, and his eyes were filled with horror. Kireina's entire form transformed, becoming an utterly abhorrent beast of endless and complete chaos.

"[Eldritch Authority]!"

The vision of a monster he couldn't comprehend, as someone who had yet to surpass the level of a Star Devourer shocked him to the bone!

Although he kept his composure, his internal thoughts were filled with fear and horror of her appearance…

Kireina's beauty was nothing but an illusion, her true form was a being of incomprehensible shape!

"The barrier melted!"

Luminous, who had received a strong beating, quickly flew into the skies, summoning a titanic sword of light and striking Nirvana at the same time as Kireina's trident!

"RAAAAHHH!"

The weakened barrier, the result of his wavering resolve and harmony, gained countless cracks until it finally shattered into pieces, the fear he felt ended up breaking his focus!

"NOOOO!"

Nirvana screamed in anger, his rage surging from within as red flames emerged out of his entire body, exploding at the same time as both attacks hit him!

BOOOOMMM!!

The explosion of Wrathful Flames pushed Kireina and Luminous away, the two landing on the floor below, the smoke above the skies dissipating to show Nirvana's appearance has changed.

His mocking smile was now replaced by an angered face, so angry he looked ugly. His eyes were furious, his demon horns grew longer, and black and red flames covered his body.

"You have forced me…!" He muttered. "I will now channel the power I've mastered… from BELETH!"

The red and black flames kept erupting from his golden body, whose red tattoos continued spreading over his body.

He became bulkier and manlier than his more feminine and androgynous appearance, his hair growing longer too.

"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Wrathful Decadence]!"

FLUOOOSH!

His entire body erupted with deadly wrathful flames, enhanced and improved further through corrupted Mandala power.

His Aura transformed into a furious and demonic, Asura-like Buddha, with red skin and a demonic face, holding giant clubs, axes, and maces!

And then, attacking Kireina and Luminous from the skies, each blow enough to shatter whole mountains.

"BE JUDGED!"

CRAAASH! 

The entire Realm of Ravenfolt trembled, Nirvana's newly awakened powers were exactly what Buddha had been looking for this entire time!
