Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 2450: The Vampire God Emperorʼs Resolve

The {Lonely Azure Moon That Longs For Winter}.

A name that instantly made Noah and Iris remember her, Clementina.

She had somehow become the Azure Moon, and through her warped powers gained by becoming the vessel of what Noah presumed to be an Outer God stronger than Yog-Sothoth, she had created this Dimensional Dungeon, or whatever.

”A Dungeon, huh?” wondered Eleanora. ”Daddy, what do we do? Should we seek the keys?” ”Of course not,” Noah said. ”Weʼll break through all of this and get to her.”

Noah unleashed his Divine Blood Aura Domain, expanding as a cosmic nebula of blood and black stars materialized around him, exerting the power of someone beyond Black Hole Realm after he devoured Yog-Sothoth, although still adapting, he unleashed his space distorting abilities that the Outer God possessed.

”Clementina, weʼve had enough with your games, you will open the way.”

With a single swing of his hand, a tremendous slash was unleashed, using his long vampiric claws, Noah tore through space and time itself, warping reality around him as he saw

countless layers of distorting dimensions.

TRUUUMMM!!!

”W-What in the world is this Dungeon?!”

Iris gasped as she saw the strange images before her eyes, and so did her children, none of them imagined the structure of this Dimensional Dungeon to be of this level of complexity. ”Almost there...!”

Noah kept tearing through the Dimensional Layers in front of him, attempting to continuously escape this Dimension.

However...

RUMBLE!

Out of nowhere, he felt something, an alarming tremor that sent countless cracks through the surface of Abyss outside.

Enormous holes opened across its entire structure, the world by itself was beginning to shatter and fall aaprt.

”What?!”

Noah suddenly stopped, as he saw the wounds through the dimensional layers rapidly beginning to regenerate, until everything was back to normal.

”What happened, dad?” Dante wondered.

Noah was left speechless, his eyes widening in surprise for the first time in perhaps thousands of years, he gritted his teeth tightly, furious like his children had never seen before!

”You bastards... Iʼm going to kill you. Iʼm going to slaughter all of you... You dare use my own world, the world I took for myself, my throne, as a pillar for this joke of a dungeon?!”

Iris, Dante, and Eleanora suddenly stepped back, noticing Noahʼs ever-growing fury, an emotion they had thought he had long ago lost, as he seemed always calm, at all times. Yet now?

He had reached the boiling point, and he could no longer remain calm and composed, he was furious beyond measure.

”What happened, dear?” Iris wondered, the only brave enough to speak to such a powerful man even on his most furious moment.

”They took Abyss...” he said.

”What?” Iris asked.

”Abyss! While we were away, only for some minutes... They used Abyss, its Roots, its Dimensional Membranes, everything!” he said. ”Theyʼre using it to create this Dimensional Dungeon. If I try to forcefully break through it and reach the Blue Moon, the entire world of Abyss will collapse and be destroyed.”

”A-Ah...” Iris was left speechless. ”S-Such a thing is even possible?!”

”It seems to be the case...” Noah sighed, calming down. ”It looks like Iʼve grown too complacent. Although I have not stopped cultivating all this time, I have lacked experience. We were played like fools this entire time.”

”You mean Yog-Sothoth intentionally dragged you to the Outer Universe?” asked Iris.

”Yeah, and he lured all three of you out too, you three are the strongest right after me after all, my family, my wife and my children, of course, hahaha...” Noah laughed, feeling like a fool. ”I suppose they didnʼt count on Yog-Sothoth actually losing though. Thatʼs for certain. But they used him to lure us outside, we gave them enough time to create this.”

”Who?” asked Iris. ”The Outer Gods? The Vampires down below?”

”Something like that,” nodded Noah. ”I am still trying to figure it out, but the Outer Gods are definitely not alone into this entire plot. As I tore through the Dimensional Layers, I remember seeing something.”

”Something?” asked his daughter. ”W-What?”

”A huge spiderweb that interconnected the Dimensional Layers together, overlapping the very Roots of Abyss with many others,” explained Noah. ”This entire thing, this Dimensional Dungeon, Clementinaʼs current state, the frozen moon, everything is connected. Several factions are working together for this.”

”So there are more foes than the Outer Gods...” Dante muttered. ”Y-You know something, dad? Something... we donʼt?”

”...” Noah remained in silence, still thinking. ”Hmm, I might have an idea. Clementina and even the Outer God that have used her as a vessel to turn her into a Constellation-like entity is only one of the many components of this plan. She is a big pillar of this Dimensional Dungeon, but there are several more.”

”So what do we do now?” Eleanora asked, tilting her head, she was calm. ”Maybe we should try go find the keys, dad. Letʼs play along for now, Iʼm bored anyways.”

Noahʼs serious face suddenly twisted, as he smiled a bit.

”Hah, my daughter... I suppose only my Eleanora would remain calm even now, youʼre already surpassing your father,” laughed Noah. ”Fine, youʼre right. Letʼs play their damn game. This time I am not the same as before. And Iʼll show them.”

”Weʼll show them together, dad!” Dante said.

”So where do we go now?” asked Iris. ”The only thing I see everywhere is a wasteland of ice

and fire... and monsters, a bunch of them far away.”

”Thereʼs something over there,” Noah had already noticed. ”A gate.”

Noahʼs family flew towards the direction where he had sensed something, quickly reaching something that resembled a spiraling mass of blue and red energy.

A Gate, one of the supernatural phenomena that appeared within his home world, Earth, before he was reincarnated inside the world of Abyss.

Back in his home world, the Earth where Noah and Iris originated from, Gates connected to dungeons, which were forgotten fragments of worlds scattered across the cosmos.

And now, a similar construction appeared in front of him.

”Judging by the requirements being to collect three keys, this Gate probably lead us to our

first one,” said Noah. ”Letʼs go.”

He wrapped his family within his Aura, as he stepped forward into the unknown.

The Vampire God Emperor would stop at nothing until he can reclaim his world.
