Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 1986 A New Alliance

-----

Azurite calmed down Skadi, and then decided to slowly explain her who she was, and what was her true purpose. Skadi at first couldnʼt believe what had happened, and that it was all a plot made by her own daughter and an ancient god nobody knew much about that had plotted this entire thing the whole time.

And this girl in front of her, Azurite, was an inhabitant of this World, the Spiritual Plane, one of the many Dimensions that had opened up when the World of Genesis underwent a rapid distortion on its Spatial Layers and Pillars thanks to the Age of Chaos, prompted by Kireina herself after her ascension into a Supreme Goddess.

”The Spiritual Plane, so my whole Realm was absorbed by it out of nowhere?! Why?! Is this Obsidianʼs plan?” Skadi asked.

”I am not so sure, but it could be my sisterʼs plan…” Sighed Azurite. ”It was thanks to my Spiritual Energy that I was able to free you from Obsidianʼs Sealing Chains, by doing so, weʼve become connected… Like a contract.”

”Thanks for saving me but can you do the same with everyone else?” Skadi asked.

”Iʼm afraid I lack the power to do that.” She sighed. ”I decided to save you because you were the strongest. As long as youʼre fine, we could find a way to save the rest.”

”Wait, you said your sister?” Skadi raised an eyebrow. ”Azurite, who are you?”

”I…”

Those memories flashed through Skadiʼs mind as she looked at the people that had come to her Realm just now. People she had never seen before, but that she could tell served someone quite important in Genesis nowadays, Kireina.

Truhan, Celica, Meiji, Kizuato, Goruden, Yukan, Jinsoku, Palami, Raito, and Asure, that were their names, and they introduced themselves with quite a big lack of manners to her great self… However, right now, she wasnʼt focused on manners.

At this point, she only wanted to know their true intentions, and why were they here. And similarly, Celica, the leader of the group, wondered why Skadi was here from all places.

”I saw what you did, helping my army retreat safely, and defeating many of those annoying insects that were bothering my Realm.” Skadi sighed with a faint smile. ”You have my thanks for that. I can assume you donʼt come here with any sort of enmity in your purposes, right?”

”Yeah, Skadi, weʼve come here because we felt the presence of our comrades, but it seems theyʼre in the other floating island.” Celica nodded. ”We decided to join the fight because we share a similar enemy. In the battle against those invaders, we were also thrown into this World, and weʼve been surviving since then, getting here at long last.”

”I see.” Skadi nodded, finally understanding the situation much better. ”Tell me, Kireinaʼs Pantheon Members, would you agree to make an alliance with my Pantheon? Weʼve never shared any enmity, and Iʼve heard from my daughter Lazuli that Kireina had taken good care of her. Based in that and your actions right now, I do have a good impression on all of you. So?”

”Sure!” Meiji agreed immediately. ”If that can help us get to our same goal…!”

”Indeed.” Celica nodded. ”Do you guys agree?” She asked the rest of the party.

”No problem.” Truhan crossed his arms. ”Though, do they have some food? Iʼm starving…”

”Alright, looks good to me!” Kizuato laughed.

”Yeah, itʼs fine to me.” Goruden nodded.

”As long as you cooperate with us, weʼll cooperate as well.” Jinsoku agreed.

”No big deal Queen Skadi, you got us!” Yukan roared.

”As long as we can work together…” Palami nodded.

”Alright!” Raito seemed the most excited.

”Letʼs get along.” Asure smiled.

Skadi was surprised by how everyone was, she had heard a lot of bad rumors about Kireinaʼs Pantheon, that they were evil, merciless, that they were rude, and that they called everyone trash, and always tried to kill everyone and anything… But right now she was seeing them for what they truly were.

Hardworking people that were unified for a shared purpose, with a strong loyalty towards their leader, even as she was gone right now, Kireina. Skadi nodded, smiling as she heard their answers, they were quite a sizable group, and everyone was overflowing with more strength than her strongest Gods in he Pantheon, they were very amazing.

”Looks like I made the right call by not judging a book for its cover.” She smiled. ”Now, letʼs make an alliance contract. [Divine Frost Queen Magic]: [Niflheimʼs Contract]”

FLAAASH!

She conjured a powerful Divine Technique utilizing Divine Magic, as a large scroll made of clear blue frost divine energy materialized in front of everyone, it was an actual contract, with written rules and all, and punishments if the rulers were not done correctly.

Both Skadi and them could suffer from the contractʼs punishments, which could seriously hurt their growth and cultivation, so it didnʼt tilted to any of the two parties, and was a good contract to stay in equal terms as a temporary alliance… After Celica read it carefully a few times with Meiji and Palami, they agreed and everyone signed, trusting their smarter friends.

She finished by signing it herself, as she smiled and nodded, and then, at long last, she decided to summon Azurite to her side, whose existence she had hidden from them until they decided to become her allies… it was never wrong to be too cautious.

”W-Who is she?” Celica asked, glancing at the beautiful lady in front of them.

”My name is Azurite, I am a Supreme Spirit of Ice, one of the siblings of the Ruler of this Plane, and also the one fighting against her Tyranny… It was because of my sister that this entire invasion to your world bean, and I… am deeply sorry for that.” She sighed, looking at everyone with her glistening jewel-like eyes.

Her beauty was so incredible that even the girls were dazzled by her divine presence, they nodded a bit, before beginning to process what she actually said…

”Wait, what?!”

RUMBLE!

However, there was little time to rest, right as this introduction happened, a huge explosion outside of the Realmʼs barrier happened, the entire place trembling!

”Queen Skadi, the barrier… It has shattered!” Uru came running to the throne room.
