”Hm?”

RUMBLE!

The ground shattered apart, as Wasp appeared above me, fully transformed into his pseudo insectoid form, six giant, long insect claws rushed down towards me, unleashing a barrage of powerful, deadly strikes at lightning speed, each blow releasing explosions of purple and black energies.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

I was caught off-guard, as I was sent flying away, but I quickly regained my footing and stopped myself from fully falling, rapidly moving through space without using the skill in specific, tearing it apart and making my way to his side.

”There you are!”

He twisted his body and kicked my head with immense force, pummeling me down to the ground and shattering it into pieces, cracks appearing everywhere.

BOOOMMM!!!

My armor gained tiny cracks as well, as I started to find out just how strong this Wasp was… indeed, he was the strongest of the tree for a reason.

Our organization wouldnʼt even be where it is if these three werenʼt as immensely strong as they truly were.

Good, I love myself a good fight.

”Impressive, it seems youʼre not a pathetic bug at the end.”

”Silence, young lady! I will reeducate you!”

He rushed down, his sharp claws overflowing with his aura, purple and black mixed into red, as flames encompassed his body.

”{Flames of Infernal Naraka}!”

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

Each blow unleashed explosions of demonic flames, as the bastard channeled an otherworldly power, most likely something he had obtained through his long life roaming the world and many realms connected to it.

”My turn now~”

”Ah?!”

His eyes widened, however, as he realized I was unscathed, the flames of this Naraka, a Hell from Buddhism he probably visited because heʼs one son of a bitch, didnʼt affect me as he imagined.

”{Chaotic Void Star}”

I conjured a corrupted version of my [Solar Vampire Goddessʼ Bleeding Sun] Skill, but conjured using primarily Chaos and Void instead, channeling the whole power of this custom armor I was wearing, without Skills.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

In a split second, he was not only surrounded by them, but engulfed by countless of their explosions, breaking apart his entire insectoid armor as his purple and green blood splattered everywhere.

”GYYAAAAAHHHH!”

As he screamed in agony, I quickly charged towards him, manifesting giant black insectoid claws out of nowhere, a version of my Claws of Demise, in specific, the one from my Khepri Armor, the {Khepriʼs Golden Sunshine Dimension-Tearing Claws of Demise}, but even further powered up by this ”natural chaos” that I was learning to wield better and better.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

”UUUGGGHH?!”

Wasp screamed as his arms were torn off, and then his wings and his legs, his eyes glared at me while bleeding, as I grasped his head and looked down on him.

”Whatʼs wrong? I thought you were the strongest of the trinity, Wasp? I have completely humiliated you twice now.”

”Haaah… Haaaahh… Haaahh…!”

He was gasping for air, as his aura fluctuated constantly, warping his surroundings, as his eyes turned insectoid, the last human-like thing of him, his head, changing entirely into the head of something resembling a mantis and an ant.

”KRIEEEEEHHHHH!!!”

BOOOMMM!!!

An explosion of black flames and lightning erupted from his body, as I was forcefully pushed away, I glanced back amidst the flames and the smoke, noticing his limbs having come back, and his entire frame having evolved.

His exoskeleton was now pitch black, and his body seemed even more insectoid, simply standing like a human, with eight long limbs, two of them his legs, but the others, readily available for battle with sharp and long claws.

A pair of giant black wings sprouted from his back, as they began moving.

”KILL… KILL… KILL… KILL… KILL… FIGHT… FIGHT… FIGHT… FIGHT!!!”

As he transformed and got ready to battle, his aura warped space itself, growing even stronger, constantly overflowing with immense strength.

And he went berserk, completely, talking nonsense…

I see, so this is his true self, huh?

”Youʼre finally showing your truest colors, that human face was nothing but a mask, youʼre a monster, arenʼt you?”

”GRAAAAAAHHHH!”

FLAAASH!

The true identity of Wasp…

He was never a human to begin with.

He was an Insectoid, member of a race of Ancient Humanoids originating from Southeast Asia.

Now, theyʼre mostly extinct, Wasp might be the last of their members.

His humanoid form was nothing but a façade, a transformation to contain his true power, and his true self.

A monster that desires nothing but battle and blood, and the only one capable of going against my own father, although ultimately still weaker than him.

RUMBLE!

As he moved, he resembled a blur of black light, shattering the ground and blowing up the entire surrounding arena, the spectators unleashed their Auras, protecting themselves.

At the same time, father strengthened the dome-shaped chaos barrier around us, he didnʼt want the fun to end after all.

”KILL! KILL! KILL!”

Wasp appeared in front of me in that split second I thought all those things, his claws digging through my armor instantly, shattering pieces of it within mere seconds.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

”So that bastard of Wasp is finally letting go, huh?” My father murmured. ”This is going to get interesting now… Kireina, show me how far your powers have grown, my dear daughter.”

As I received Waspʼs blows and my armor shattered apart, I heard my fatherʼs words… Of course he would say something like this, heʼs that kind of person.

Itʼs not that he doesnʼt love me, but this was something I brought to myself, right?

FLUOSH!

My right hand materialized a cosmic gauntlet imbued with several jewels, the very power of my own Soul Psyche manifesting, as I punched Waspʼs face with it.

”{Cosmic Fist}”

BOOOMMM!!!

An explosion of particles of cosmic light and stars erupted, chaos engulfed everything, and Wasp was thrown down onto the floor, blood splattering everywhere.

”GRAAAAAAHHHH!”

However, he instantly retaliated, standing up as if nothing, kicking my legs and trying to break them, only for my Aura to erupt from my body.

I unleashed all of my Divinities, corrupted by Chaos, Void, and…

Gluttony.

”{Devour}”

CRUUNCH! CRUUNCH! CRUUUNCH”

”UNGH?!”

His eyes widened, as he vomited purple blood, half of his limbs were instantly gone, devoured.

”HEERYAAAAAAAHHHH!”

However, he didnʼt give up yet, possessed by his endless bloodlust as a powerful Insectoid Warrior of his age and experience, Wasp quickly regrew new limbs, at the same time as his aura turned into a giant bug-like death god, attacking me with endless blows from his stingers, scythes, claws, and sharp spear-like mosquito proboscis.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
