Epic of Caterpillar

Nyzzet's Divine Thunder Magic was spreading everywhere, relentlessly attacking the invading Miasmic Aberrations as they came.

Of course, he wasn't doing it in a powerful and brave fashion but was constantly running away for his life while evading their blows.

Nyzzet had always been a cowardly dragon his entire life, this was because he favored comfort above anything else.

His mother, the mother of all Dragons, Tiamat, raised him slightly spoiled, and he only knew comfort for the majority of his first thousand of years of life, even until he became a God, it remained the same.

He closed himself inside of his Divine Realm, desiring to live peacefully… Until Kireina happened, and his life since then has gone downhill very rapidly.

"Why do I have to do this now?! What has my damn life become now?!"

Nyzzet couldn't completely blame Kireina, she was simply doing what she could to survive and protect her family after all.

And her help had also given him a lot of relief, joining her faction in these dire times was a necessity for someone that valued chilling and sitting down doing nothing but sleeping or eating…

Sadly for him, such peaceful days ended once she revived, it didn't even take her a day for her to come back after death too!

"SHAAAH!"

"ROOOAR!"

"GRAAAH!"

The Miasmic Aberrations surrounded him again, attacking him with their various monstrous shapes. Claws, tails, fangs, and beams of chaos reached him.

"Dammit!"

He spread out his Divine Aura and created a Domain of Lightning Bolts, releasing them all around him and blasting the creatures with consecutive explosive attacks.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

"SHYAAEEGH…!"

The agonizing screams of the Miasmic Aberrations resonated as they were vaporized by his super powerful lightning.

One of the benefits of being such an old dragon, yet a lazy one, was that he was able to accumulate an impressively high amount of Lightning Elemental Particles through his rest.

There was a reason why there was such huge differences in power between Gods of similar Ranks, sometimes Gods of lesser ranks would be even stronger than those of higher ones due to the accumulated Elemental Particles!

And Nyzzet was one of such cases… because he has lived for almost a hundred thousand years, which multiplied by his divine realm time dilation would make it over half a million years, that meant he has a very large quantity of Elemental Particles.

His Lightning, compared to the trio of Dragonesses was tremendous! If he were a bit braver, he would certainly be a mighty and intimidating fighter.

"Hahh… Well, at the very least I'm leveling up, huh?"

Nyzzet still couldn't believe it with his own eyes, the System was back on track and even stronger than before, now named Origin System, it even allowed Gods to Level Up and progress infinitely faster than before.

It was one of the amazing benefits of serving Kireina! So, thinking that, he thought that he better work his worth or she'll kick him out of her faction.

"T-This must be some sort of test from Kireina… Hahh, I have to do my best I guess…"

Although rather depressed, he opened his wide jaws, charging it with his mighty lightning, and releasing a cannon of thunderbolts around his surroundings, blasting through it all.

TRUUUUUMMMMM…!!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

His destructive power was almost on par with Luminous, without taking into consideration Luminous better Skills, Abilities, and Daos… And a slightly higher count of Elemental Particles, while also being capable of wielding Cosmic Power.

"Wow, well done dad!"

"You're awesome…"

"Not bad."

His three "daughters" cheered up for him. He didn't even raise them, but because they were born out of his Dungeon, they considered him their father, even if he was against that idea.

"Well, this isn't so bad…"

He had a fragile ego as well, so wherever he was praised like this, Nyzzet would feel immediately better with himself!

"SHYAAGGHHH!"

However, his worries quickly came back as he saw dozens of Miasmic Aberrations fusing together into a titanic snake-like creature.

"ROOAAR!"

It attacked him by firing deadly chaotic miasmic beams, which he swiftly evaded by imbuing himself with lightning and flying at an incredibly fast speed.

FLAAASH!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"ROOAAR!"

The snake then swung its huge tail, almost hitting him on the head if it wasn't for his Divine Lightning Domain Barrier, which he erected using his Divinity.

CLAAASSHH!!

"Ugh…!"

Nyzzet was still pummeled down, the creature swiftly attacked him with several blows at once, trying to pierce through his barrier which he had made by fusing his Divine Domain into it.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

"You're so damn annoying…" Nyzzet sighed, his lazy-looking eyes suddenly shone with anger and lightning. "I'm going to get serious now!"

FLUOOOSH!

His barrier suddenly exploded, but its energy was not lost, it was swiftly repurposed and released towards the aberration through his claws!

"[Primordial Lightning Dragon Fist]!"

A gigantic fist made of lightning, of over three hundred meters materialized, punching and vaporizing the chimeric, fused miasmic aberration!

BOOOOMMM!!!

"SHYEEEGGHHH…!"

Before the beast could ever counterattack, more than half of its body had vaporized, the other half tried to fight back, growing countless spikes on top!

However, Nyzzet was not done yet, the giant fist was gone but the leftover energy was quickly repurposed again, flowing towards him through his lightning circuits and then releasing it across the earth.

"[Reverse Thunderbolt]!"

TRUUUUMMMM…!

An enormous explosion of lightning surged from below the beast, blowing it up into countless pieces, which all turned into ashes…

"Hahh… I gained more levels out of that too!"

Nyzzet started waving his tail happily after seeing his gains, feeling his whole body and magical power growing stronger.

"Amazing, with this… M-Maybe I can become stronger and not be too ridiculed…"

As he thought that, he noticed an enormous army approaching, larger than the Miasmic Aberrations, which were also fighting them, on top of that!

"What is that- Ah, Demons?!"

His eyes opened wide, as he quickly alerted the other Dragons.

"Demons? Those are from that Hell World Kireina told me about?" Luminous wondered. "Hmm, this is troublesome…"

"But I thought Kireina-sama killed Satan's vessel!" Said Yvnei.

"Looks like not his entire army though…!" Odanth sighed.

"It will be our duty to clean them all…" Nanet said.

"Hahh.. She better pay me for working overtime." Nyzzet sighed.
