Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 866 - Freyjaʼs Envy

-----

A beautiful goddess whose appearance was dreamy, bright, and illusory seemed rather bothered by something, her sharp crimson eyes squinted as she began to contemplate the changes in the world going on around her.

Her beauty was supernatural, to say the least, her pale white skin was as smooth as silk, and her slender and tall figure made her seem like a perfect doll. Her face was thin and refined, with a beautiful, pointed nose and long, sharp ears.

Her crimson eyes gleamed eerily, despite her bright and dreamy beauty, and her long silver hair waved behind her by the winds of her Divine Realm.

She had two large red-colored goat-like horns at each side of her head, and she wore a beautiful and highly decorated white dress covered in many tree branches, purple and pink flowers, and two large butterfly wings behind her back, although she was not truly a fairy, and such wings were part of her special dress.

She was Freyja, the Great Goddess of Dreams and Nightmares.

The prideful Great Goddess sat down over a beautiful chair made of flowers while admiring the field of flowers of many colors that rested in front of her.

She drank tea made of Dream Attribute Divine Materials she had harvested within her Divine Realm, using the aromatic scent of such tea to calm herself down, but even then, the effects of such herbs were not as strong.

”Another Dream Attributes God…”

Freyja had sensed when Kireina evolved after she ranked up to Rank 2 Goddess, and immediately knew she was a Dream and Nightmare Goddess when she felt her strong Divinity.

Although it wasnʼt as powerful and vast as her Great Goddess Divinity, it was noticeable to someone so masterful in the use of the Attribute she pioneered at.

And she already knew who it could have been.

The one that has completely monopolized the Dream Attribute Clouds within one of the biggest Mortal Realms, the Realm of Vida, which had cut down a valuable place where she could draw power from.

”Kireina…”

Freyja seemed bitter every time she said such a name.

Although she really didnʼt have much of a history with her, as not even a year had gone by since Kireina began to alter her powers due to her awakening over the control of Dream Attribute, which seemed incredibly good.

She knew that some Gods were trying to kill her, but she quickly got to know that they had all failed and only made her stronger.

She had desired to catch her and make her into her servant, or even simply steal her powers or devour her mortal soul.

But that was in the past, as the present… Kireina is already a Goddess at Rank 2, not the mortal she used to be.

And even more, Freyja inhabited her own Realm far away from the Realm of Vida.

However, even by considering that, she had considered going there…

But after thinking it enough, she had thought as something useless, she really didnʼt have to get her nose into such situations and end up getting into discussions and problems with other Gods.

She already had her own problems and responsibilities as a Great Goddess, she even had her own Realm to take care of, and many subordinate Gods and Living Deities at her side, her many children, the fairies.

She had forgotten about Kireina already…

But then, her new and sudden unique Divinity of Dreams and Nightmares startled Freyja for a bit.

Making her reconsider things again…

”No. Even if I could get there easily through Dream Travel, I wonʼt be able to protect my Realm while I am out, and other Gods could come here and plunder everything I have from my Divine Area… I might have strong God Subordinates, but against other Great Gods… they stand no chance,” she sighed, quickly thinking of this as useless.

Perhaps she could send subordinate Gods there, but she feared that they might not be strong enough and only make Kireina stronger by being eaten.

As she simply decided to forget things again, Kireinaʼs Dream and Nightmare Divinity suddenly skyrocketed and became so strong that a blast of pink-colored aura surged out of the Realm of Vida for only a millisecond before dissipating.

”W-What?!”

Freyja was left dumbfounded.. it was as if Kireina had suddenly gained a ton of Dream Attribute Particles, even more than before!

By evolving, she also got them, and after getting her Path Jewel, her divinity became even stronger, startling the Goddess!

Perhaps Kireina was yet to achieve her level of power… but she was steadily approaching at time record!

What kind of being had raised to godhood so ridiculously fast such as Kireina before?

No one.

In less than a year from being reincarnated in Genesis, she was already a Rank 2 Goddess!

”This is… frustrating…” Freyja sighed.

Her crimson eyes began to gleam eerily with anger, so much anger that her pale white and delicate hands broke apart the cup of tea she was drinking, crushing everything to debris and covering her hands with the warm tea.

She quickly cleaned it with a handkerchief a sighed once more.

”Perhaps I will have to plan something, I wonʼt let her become the strongest Goddess of Dreams and Nightmares… Thatʼs my spot! …And interesting enough, many other Gods want her dead… Or want her powers…” said Freyja, as a devilish smile rose from her lips.

Suddenly, a mysterious God called upon her, just as she had thought about this, this God asked her to help him and plan the annihilation of Kireina.

”Oh my… to think that such a being would want her dead now… Wasnʼt her benefactor before? How the tables have turned…” laughed Freyja, realizing the many difficulties that would soon reach Kireinaʼs life.

[Day 310]

[Kireina] gained Divine Skill Points due to the prayers of your believers!] (Added!)

[Kireina] gained Divine Dungeon Points due to the combined energy gathered by your Dungeons!] (Added!)

[Divine Skill Points and Divine Dungeon Points have been converted into their corresponding Ranks!]

Yesterday after getting that new Path Jewel I decided to practice some of its abilities with a True Body Clone, while also spending the rest of the day playing video games with my wives (yes, this sentence makes perfect sense now).

I think I am turning them all into Neets and Gamers because we spent a lot of time playing games, up to like 4 AM or more, and we didnʼt even get as much sex done due to that…

Well, whatever, I am happy if theyʼre happy.

Talking about my True Body Clone using the Dream Attribute Path Jewel, I began to experiment with it for the rest of the day yesterday.

I had first begun to travel through the Dream Bubbles floating everywhere and seeing whatʼs up.

To explain things, Dream Bubbles are the most basic form of Dream Worlds.

Dream Bubbles appear naturally everywhere, and they look like dreamy, semi-transparent, and illusory bubbles that shine in many psychedelic colors and appear to have small worlds inside.

Every living being capable of actually dreaming about something produces them daily, and no, by eating them or something I donʼt get anything at all, so donʼt get your hopes up.

However, they were still interesting to check and see, they are after all pocket dreams made from fading dreams of what people dreamed last night.

They were varied in many types of things.

Some dreams were about people going to the sea, others about people managing to buy that body pillow about me, other dreams were about someone finally getting the Five Star version of me in the gacha game, and… wait, a lot of these dreams were about this merchandise!

Damn, people really got brainwashed over getting it…

And I didnʼt do anything, this was all the power of capitalism.

Am I a capitalistic pig? No! I am a capitalistic fairy.

Anyways, as I said, Dream Bubbles are that pocket Dream Worlds, too small to be called Dream Worlds but an inner dreamy and illusory space that still ”exists”.

All Dreams, Dream Bubbles, Dream Worlds, and Divine Dream Worlds are made of Mana, Emotions (of the ones that create them through dreaming), and Dream Attribute Particles.

These particles… I canʼt get them.

Unless I become a Supreme Goddess I donʼt think I can refine them and add them to my strength yet, as simple as that.

But anyways, exploring them helped me practice my Dream Travel, which helps me travel through dreams, I could even use it somehow like a teleport. Or even better, by merging it with teleport, I can do just that, teleport in between dreams.

Though it consumes a crapload of Divine Energy, so I am not doing that anytime soon unless it is very necessary.

Alongside that, I practiced by converting some things off my Dream World located inside of my Divine Realm into ”real”.

I had first tried with small things such as trees, grass, rocks, and other stuff, which converted the items on Divine Attribute Materials even if they looked like completely normal rocks or grass.

It was said that if I did the same thing but with Divine Dream Worlds, I could find Dream Attribute Divine Materials… but because they are technically just dreams, they fade away eventually, so when you finally get them you have to use them right away.

Thatʼs quite the pain.

I would guess a way to fight that back could be by making your own Divine Realm of Dream Attribute, but I donʼt have such a section inside my Divine Realm, the Dream Attribute was concentrated in the giant Dream World I have.

Maybe if I could eat another Dream Attribute God…

Or even better, I could create a clone exclusive for Dream Attribute, let her raise to godhood, and then boom! I got my own Divine Realm for Dream Attribute.

Eh, sounds interesting but… how profitable is that? I would have to use my own Primordial Essence to level her up all the way to Goddess…

However, it is quite interesting that there is such a possibility.

The other possibility would be someone else that has Dream Attribute as their Main Divinity, but aside from me, there is no one…

I am the only one, and I donʼt want to force one of the already existing Clones that have their own lives and all, so the best I could do is just design a split soul especially for this task.

But then comes the thing… how do I help her raise in the Ranks afterward?

…Dual cultivation?

Would I have sex with my own clones?

Oof, thatʼs a question I never wanted to ask myself, I will better not make it for now… until I can find ways to hasten cultivation growth without having to Dual Cultivate.

Then I tried out the other Abilities with the Gods that volunteered for the task.

Merveim was the first one I tried my Soul Lead Into Dream Ability, and he immediately went to dreamland the moment I hit him with the wave of pink-colored dream smoke.

When I woke him up he said he had a very pleasant dream where everything he had dreamed of came true, and he even became a Supreme God or something.

I guess these dreams are effective even against a rather strong God such as this dragon.

The Ability seems to entrap them into a pleasant dream world, living an illusion that is not really the truth, their souls are slowly consumed as well as they delve into the dream, but they can also resist if they realize that what they are inside is a dream and not the real world.

But Merveim was way too dumb to realize that so I had to wake him up myself.

Aside from that, other abilities such as the Nightmare Induction were also good, the one that offered himself was Agatheina, and she said that she had the horrible nightmare of me dying.

Aw…

Well, anyway, I shouldnʼt use these Abilities on allies anymore, as it can easily weaken minds and souls.

For now, today I will keep raising more of my friends and subordinates into Living Deities and also upgrade my Spears.
