Epic of Caterpillar

-----

"Mother!"

"Mother is in danger!"

"We must help!"

"The palace is isolated, hurry!"

A swarm of hundreds of thousands of massive, five-meter-big spiders made of purple, black, and red crystals covered on red eyes started scurrying through the dark palace of Ashatath. After having sensed that their power was in danger and confronting someone incredibly strong, they panicked, attempting to go help her.

However, the only corridor leading to her enormous palace room was now being blocked, by whom? An army of Undead. Skeletons, Zombies, Undead Flesh Golems, Specters, Ghost, and Banshee.

All of such powerful Undead overflowing with Auras of Cosmic Energy, these weren't the Undead Kireina could summon, she couldn't waste energy summoning monsters when she was fighting a Star Devourer Realm entity after all.

No, this was someone else, an old enemy she had, who slowly became her ally and now, felt frustrated he doesn't get enough screen time!

"Oi, you fuckers. Stand aside if you don't want to become my new slaves. Nobody's passing through here."

It was nobody else than Redgaria Frostbite.

"MOVE ASIDEEEE!"

The spiders didn't allow this measly little human to stand in front of their path to save their mother! Roaring furiously, they all charged against his Undead, which were being quickly grinded to dust one after another.

"Weak!"

"Pathetic Vampire!"

"You will die!"

The Spiders spoke bullshit words, managing to irritate Redgaria a bit. He had a terrible self-esteem, so any small insult would always piss the fuck out of him. Though, they were wrong in something, he was no longer a human, nor was he a vampire.

He lifted his hand, revealing armor of cosmic blue bones covering his entire body, of his own creation. With a mere command, his Cosmic Energy erupted from his Soul and Origin Core, spreading across the destroyed Undead.

"[Cosmic Necrotic Corpse Explosion]"

The destroyed corpses of the Undead glowed with bright cosmic blue and golden light. Within seconds, hundreds of explosions engulfed the spiders, their bodies disintegrating by the dozens. Nether and Cosmic Energy mixing together perfectly as phantasmal flames spread everywhere the explosions reached.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The explosions continued, claiming the lives of hundreds of spiders within seconds. The relentless army that was talking shit about him quickly became shocked but continued advancing. Half of the spiders opened their mandibles, firing beams of light against the Undead and taking them down from the distance.

Yet there was something off, something weird! Despite how much they charged against his army, the Undead never stopped coming. A pitch-black grimoire in the necromancer's hands constantly conjured more and more Undead.

"I happen to also have my own endless army." He laughed. "[Soul Absorption]"

He extended his skeletal hands against the corpses of the spiders, their souls and energy were absorbed, quickly restoring his Essence and helping him summon more and more Undead.

This was his Grimoire Ego Weapon, which he simply called Death. It possessed countless spells, feed off souls, and could produce even more spells as it grew stronger.

The ultimate weapon for a necromancer!

But that wasn't all, as Redgaria had Ranked Up into a World Devourer some time ago thanks to Kireina giving him Realm Fragments.

He had awakened an ability, which he was constantly showing as he imbued into the bodies of his Undead powerful dark blue armors made of bones, protected himself with them, and even conjured barriers, shields, and weapons out of such bones.

These necrotic bones were not ordinary bones at all, they were summoned out of his own Nether Energy, Essence, and Cosmic Energy, and were both incredibly hard, sharp, heavy, and strong.

And it was all thanks to his Cosmic Ability: [Primordial World- Conquering Evil Necromancer Authority: [Bones]: Lv1]!

It allowed him to unleash his Cosmic Authority and summon bones out of it, being incredibly hard and powerful, it embodied a whole concept. Not only his Skeleton Undead were incredibly tough out of nowhere once he activated the Skill, but the frail Zombies were also covered by powerful armor.

The spiders were now being pushed back, none of them at all was capable of advancing. And whenever they killed an Undead, an explosion would be triggered, dealing even more damage to everyone.

The Vampires that were hanging off the walls, ceiling, or floor, glanced in utter disbelief, incapable of believing their eyes.

"I-Is that… A Necromancer from the Nosferatu Family?!" Muttered Allan. "But I've heard they're cold bastards that help nobody…! Hey, c-can you help us?! We can help you fight them!"

"Hm?" Redgaria shifted his gaze towards the Vampire. "Oh! Do you need a hand? Since I got my sister back that I've been trying to become a better person, and you guys, despite being Vampires from Abyss, don't seem like bad people… Maybe. Well, if you are, I'll kill you and then turn you into more skeletons."

Redgaria controlled a dozen ghosts and specters which quickly freed the Vampires one after another. Then, he conjured magic that usually could only heal Undead, and healed their wounds quickly.

"Just as I thought." Redgaria smiled. "The Vampires of Abyss are also somewhat pseudo-undead."

"I-I'm free…!" Allan screamed, as he saw his daughter slowly wake up, fully healed. "Mia!"

"D-Daddy!" Mia ran towards her father, as she was hugged tightly by him.

The spiders were not paying attention to the vampires at all, fully concentrated on going to help their mother. However, a couple of them quickly realized that what was happening would upset their mother, nevertheless.

"Don't let them food escape!"

One of the spiders had to speak for half of them to rush towards their "food", the Vampires they've been feeding off. Only a handful were ready for battle, the rest were so exhausted and deteriorated they couldn't even walk anymore.

"Dammit!" Allan stepped forward, about to conjure a barrier with whatever remained of his Blood Energy to protect his daughter and the vampires behind him.

However, a looming shadow surged from above, no, several of them.

They all came flying from the corridor Redgaria was protecting.

A large family of mighty Wyverns, led by a giant metallic dragon appeared!

CLAAASH!

The metallic dragon transformed himself into an utterly massive, blazing sword, stopping the spiders from advancing and then burning them all.

"Hey, old man, you're finally here."

"You're just as old, you necromancer bastard!"

Former enemies that once lived near or inside the Grand Forest, were now together as allies.

Shadrach and his children arrived just in time, clashing against the swarm of hundreds of thousands of spiders. The weakest of them at World Devourer Realm of Tier 8!

"Don't let them touch the innocents!" Shadrach roared. "My children, do your best! Utilize the power of the Ego equipment to your advantage!"

"RAAAH!"

The children of the Wyvern Overlord roared, wearing giant armor, rings, bracelets, earrings, and weapons despite being giant wyverns. Although it was good to rely on their own strength, they were fighting against impossible odds, so they had to get used to use weapons and armor made by Kireina, which were at the level of Lesser Cosmic Gear at this point when the Ego powers kicked in.

CLAAASH!

The armies of Wyverns and Undead clashed against the spiders, grinding through them and tearing them apart. But it seemed like the spiders were never-ending, and dead set on saving their mother.

"We have to do something; we can't stand here…!" Allan said. "Everyone that can fight, get up! Let's protect the ones that cannot fight! Let's honor the Moon Goddess!"
