Epic Of Caterpillar

Because I didn't want to have a messy fight and endanger the high-quality meat of the Elemental Knights, I slowly approached the Knights while swimming underground, leaving my wives to distract them enough.

I first wanted to catch the one who looked the most interesting to me, the Half-Poison Elf Knight, it was a woman with amazing beauty and a sexy and voluptuous body. However, after experiencing being with my wives, her beauty does not surprise me as much, and I only can see her as a meal, making her a subordinate could be interesting, but the countless hardships I will have to get through by convincing her and all, it discourages me.

Even more, after testing that the Knights possess a partial immunity to my Charm and cannot be enslaved either. At most, I could mind break them through tortures and such, but it would take too much time for me to care enough.

As she struggled against Nesiphae, she expanded her Poison Domain to fight off Nesiphae's Poisonous Mist Domain, although both domains were made of poison, their components were different, and the two dragged their power from different Gods blessings. I've noticed that Elemental Knights have a partial Blessing, which I cannot gain by devouring them, it could be taken advantage of if I train them into becoming a Champion or a Hero, but once again, its too much time for me to waste into raising this meal.

The Poison Knight jumped around while avoiding Nesiphae's devastating hits, which held immense power. Alongside this, each time she smashed the ground, purple flames would come from her Axe, corroding anything it touched, the unlucky soldiers that happened to be close by or wanted to help the Poison Knight instantly melted into a soup.

Suddenly, as Nesiphae liberated her Magic Snakes, the Poison Knight quickly noticed the danger they held and started to avoid once again, jumping around like a rabbit. From time to time, she would release a giant sphere of pure poison that would kill Nesiphae's Magic Snakes by melting them. Because they were made of magic, they would become magic smoke and slowly dissipate.

As the Poison Knight jumped once again, Nesiphae intentionally lowered her guard, creating a false opening for the Half-Poison Elf to take advantage of. At this, the Elf quickly expanded her thorny vine whip towards Nesiphae, while infusing great amounts of MP and Stamina, she managed to expand it enough for it to fully entangle Nesiphae.

As she tried to asphyxiate Nesiphae, and while my wife was doing a fantastic job pretending to be dying by the lack of hair, which, does not affect her at all, as she has been living inside a swamp her whole childhood, she can naturally hold her breath for more than ten hours, I swam through the underground towards her position in the ground, and slowly expanded my Slime body like a very sharp needle.

As my slime needle surfaced, it stealthily moved towards the Poison Knight neck, and with a strong force, I stabbed her directly on her spine. At the sudden pain, she struggled for a bit.

"Uaagh! Gaahh! Aaah…! Ggaah…"

Although she couldn't even say a word as I cut most of her nerves by stabbing her spine, and quickly inserted a series of incredibly powerful paralyzing toxins, even if she was a Poison Knight, she wasn't immune to Poison, funny enough, perhaps because she had a half-human side. Although I don't know if pure Poison Elves are completely immune to any type of poison and toxin the moment they're born.

The moment she became completely paralyzed; her body suddenly turned static. At this, I quickly expanded by Slime needle across her spine towards the insides of her head, and cut most of her brain nerves, after this, she immediately died in the spot, without much pain as she was paralyzed.

Ding!

After receiving the system notifications, I quickly dragged the Poison Knight body inside of my Item Box, however, I quickly discovered that the Elemental Knight of Water watched the whole thing and had a face full of despair.

Seeing one of her comrades dying in such a crude way by a strange Red Slime was something that no one would be able to take slightly, the impact she received quickly bloomed in incredible despair, as she began to cry in fear.

"E-Elora!!! W-Why?! H-How… W-What is that thing?"

She fell down the ground as she started to crawl, trying to run away. Gaby stopped playing around and quickly descended to catch her. Using her Ghost Ship, she threw a giant net made of concentrated phantasmal and water magic, which imprisoned her in place.

"A-Ahh! Let me go! I don't want to die! Aaahh! H-Help!"

To make things quickly, I rushed towards her while pointing my needle. She saw me as she began to cry in help, casting countless of useless spells that didn't even hit me due to her bad aim, probably because of her despair.

"S-Stay away!!! M-Monster! N-Noo!"

In less than two seconds, I reached her chest and stabbed directly towards her heart, she instantly began to spams while trying to take me out of hers, but as things continued, she slowly became paralyzed. As she glared at me, her eyes released small tears of grievance. Due to the severe blood loss and her heart being completely destroyed, she died in less than five seconds after I jumped over her.

"Phew… It's done"

I quickly saved her corpse inside of my Item Box and gathered with Nesiphae and Gaby to plan our next move. We need to keep moving around if we don't want the Hero of Raging Winds to come after us.

Hm, these Elemental Knights are certainly strong in a conventional battle, but as I killed them one by one in such sneaky ways, they didn't pose much of a threat. Although they are seen as the main heroes from this Kingdom and most people know their entire names, I will most likely forget the name of these people, who died so easily. They are just stepping stones for my family to grow stronger. I suppose I've become quite crude, oh well, this world has changed my perception of things, and this body of mine too.

Without wanting to waste much time into my delusional thoughts, I decided to go for my next prey, the Elemental Knight of Shadows, alongside the Champion of Black Flames.

Although I haven't changed back to my humanoid form, hiding beneath the ground as a Slime is more convenient and even more secure than my Illusion Magic. Well, I am still using around fifty coats of solidified Illusion Magic over my Slime body. Oh, and the equipment that my humanoid form uses becomes Slime as well, I can call it back using [Equipment Materialization], so there are no problems about that.

Assessing the situation, I told Nesiphae and Gaby to quickly support the Slave Team that is trying to take down the Champion of Psychic Eyes. The Champion army is filled with talented warriors and they seem to become stronger with strange buffs that Nanako Maki cast in her troops. And because only half of the Slave Team are fighting them, they are being slowly overwhelmed.

It seems that there are other Dodomekis aside from Nanako Maki, and they have special and interesting abilities, most of them work together with warriors to assist them while dodging attacks. Due to their amazing vision, they can easily detect the movements of their opponents and even predict them, they can also see through the tactics of my troops and make the warriors break them in time, messing everything up.

I really want to eat some of these people, it's a very unique and strange species of Demi-Humans. It seems that all of them come from Nanako's family. These people would be good troops for my own Kingdom, so after I kill her, I will most likely leave at least half of her family alive and enslave it. Maybe if I tell her this first before killing her, she won't die with many grievances? Well, it's not like I care about what she thinks, she is just a meal waiting to be devoured.

As I swam through the ground, I had already reached my next destination. By expanding a small tentacle from my body, I saw the battlefield and its situation. It was quite interesting.

The Champion of Black Flames was working alongside the Elemental Knight of Shadows, creating a powerful Domain of corroding black flames and shadows, these flames and shadows were special as they could corrode and eat the souls of those who touched them. The ones who died inside would quickly rise again as Undead soldiers. I never knew that Athetosea had such a way of fighting, which seems quite unchivalrous for a Kingdom of "good" humans.

The Undead Team was fighting them in their own game, summoning and commanding endless troops of Undead, who were unaffected by the Champion and Knight domain and pressured them to step back. Alongside this, there was Herbell alongside Duruno and Futima commanding the Skeleton army. The three were complete powerhouses and held back any Undead from the enemy army.

In the back there was a group of recently evolved Undead which were commanded by Katara and Gofumin, as they were casting a strong poisonous and toxic mist that was making any soldier that touched it turn crazy and berserk, others were instantly burned and others paralyzed. Due to Katara's blessing, she was able to negate immunities and was even able to inflict statuses in Undead, slowly corroding the opposing Undead Army.

The Champion of Black Flames and the Elemental Knight of Shadows were being easily pressured, even more as the Champion of Black Flames skills didn't seem to affect Undead as much. She threw massive black fireballs and tornados, but they were repelled by Herbell's [Legendary] sword, which had the capabilities of absorbing flames and using them for his own attacks.

She was being completely countered by the Undead Team, and unlike other teams that were being overwhelmed by Champions or Knights, these were doing quite fine. They really picked a good catch.

I commanded the leading Undead of my arrival through the Flesh and Slime Minions in their equipment, as they glanced back at me. Although some didn't know about my Red Slime identity, Herbell quickly explained it to them.

As the two small armies of Undead fought each other, Herbell jumped over the army with amazing agility and attacked the Champion and the Knight with incredible skillfulness, while casting different elements of spells, he disrupted their plans and made them separate from each other if they didn't want to be blasted into pieces. Unlike other Champions and Knights, these two girls were quite frail and not fitted for one on one fights.

Beatrix, the Champion, was able to hold on her own with her [Legendary Relic], which boosted her magic three times, giving her an easy time when protecting herself with magic shields. However, she was worried about Sybilla, the Knight of Shadows.

Sybilla is an assassin or thief type of fighter, but due to the battlefield chaos, she wasn't able to hide or stab her enemies from the back and was forced to work alongside Beatrix. The two are good friends and have a natural proficiency while working together.

Well, too bad for her, because just at this very moment I was approaching her bellow the ground, quickly surfacing my Slime Needle and stabbing her in the head in less than a split second.

Flash!

"Ahh…!"

When Beatrix noticed Sybilla state, it was too late, as I had already pierced through her brain, killing her instantly.

"Sybilla…? S-Sybilla?! N-Noo!!!"

It seems that killing her friend really enraged her, as the Champion was suddenly engulfed in powerful Black Flames, that could consume even Undead. She suddenly turned into a massive pillar of Black Flames, as it started to take in the form of a bizarre beast, with giant arms and legs, and a massive jaw, all made of Black Flames.

"Ooh… She's really angry now…"
