Epic of Caterpillar

The power of Egos. I had already encountered them more than a few times in Grand Terra. It appears that I am not the inventor of them at all, nor their discoverer. Perhaps in my own world, but in other worlds they surely exist.

Perhaps there's some sort of pattern, but maybe because this world is actually of a higher tier of existence as a whole, everything is stronger here compared to normal things on Genesis, so therefore, maybe Ego Creation came more "naturally"? Well, for the creation of Egos, a certain control over Divine Energy is required, alongside the power to shape this power and turn it into something new.

Nonetheless, that strange armor Sol is wearing is not normal. That damn Blue Genie has the power to create Egos, and not normal ones, but Egos based out of pure Miasma. The same way Black can produce Ego Fragments, he might be able to create Ego Fragments and combine them to make a whole one. Imbuing it into Sol's armor as he corrupted him and brainwashed him with his Miasma…

Egos don't get powered up by Miasma, all three of mine get hurt by it in fact, even Black whose affinity is Chaos doesn't particularly feels like he's made of it either. This Ego Armor is actually a powerful new version of an Ego I had not seen before, we'll call them… Miasmic Egos. They're special Egos created out of Miasma and Divine Energy, with a major composition being Miasma.

They're capable of absorbing this power into their own and recover wounds easily, and even constantly grow stronger and evolve as they receive more, change shape, and more, just like right now! Isn't this super unfair? Damn bastard! I can't do that… yet. But I'll make sure to learn how to do it again. I mean, I can do a shit ton of stuff already with the power of Chaos, but not yet what I used to be able to. Maybe if I can go back home, I'll be able to merge all this new and juice powers I've learned and merge them with the power I lend to Rimuru to get even more overpowered.

I'll make sure to use all the powers I've learned from here in my conquest towards Hel's Realm… Although it'll still be a little while before I am done here, I'll make sure to beat the shit out of that bitch.

"CRAAAAH!"

CLASH!

The enormous metallic monster that Sol turned up as swung his smaller sword, which suddenly gained metallic coverture by the Ego Armor and turned immense, unleashing a horizontal slash of black flames so big it could easily cut a mountain.

CLAAAASH!

The powerful attack ended hitting me directly, as I was too out of MP to reuse my tactic of throwing a nuke over him. Of course, I could tell the Ego wasn't unscathed, the bastard was hiding it well but its soul was weakened after my many attacks, no amount of miasma can heal the soul of an Ego, it will only grow progressively weaker!

"RAAAAAH! Purifying Blazing Fire Breath!"

Luminous emerged atop of Sol, unleashing a gigantic dragon breath against him, catching him completely off-guard. The armor ended sacrificing speed in exchange of defense and got completely blasted by the power of this God's dragon breath.

BOOOOMMMMM!!!

The armor quickly began to crack slowly, as several fragments were flying away! I quickly flew as fast as possibly, fusing the Purification Skill into Aquamarine who quickly shapeshifted his body into half a long, sword-like knife, and the rest of the armor!

CLAAASH!

"A sword?!" Sol was surprised half of my armor suddenly turned into a sword.

In fact, Aquamarine can only turn into a dagger, but by simply elongating his blade, it is technically a sword as well!

"You're getting slower!" I laughed, as Sol felt pissed off and so did the armor.

The armor's claws unleashed a furious barrage of attacks which I intercepted using [Water Armor] and then, gave them all back using the power of Aquamarine's magic merged with Purification and White's holy light spells as well!

"[Ocean Vortex] + [Frost Prison] + [Frost Claymore] + [Purification]!"

FLUOOSH!

Suddenly, an enormous vortex of oceanic water spiraled forwards as it transformed into a gigantic sword of frozen water, with the power of light, looking as if it were made out of white crystal! Using this, I unleashed consecutive attacks as Aquamarine used his physical attacks as well such as [Swift Stab] repeatedly, slowly breaking through the black armor of Sol, which was already leaving out several cracks and holes it was having a hard time filling up!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"CRAAAAH!"

The metallic sound of Sol's Armor resonated, as the armor channeled Sol's powers and with his sword, unleashed an explosive shockwave that threw me off guard, making me lose some of my momentum!

FLUOOOSH!

"S-Shit…!"

However, two of my companions were there for me as well!

"Sometimes, a decisive strike is all it takes… Blazing Bow Arts: Fire Dragon Arrow Explosion!"

FLASH!

Fiere pointed a single Magic Arrow at Sol and imbued it with her very soul and magic, firing it. At first, it merely resembled a single arrow, but it suddenly took into the enormous power of flames, shaping itself into a furious and roaring dragon that clashed against Sol without him being able to evade as he had already unleashed an attack beforehand!

"GROOOARRRR…!"

The powerful arrow magic technique, which was the pinnacle of power which Fiere had achieved after leveling up so much with us impacted Sol, opening its blazing jaws and devouring him!

BOOOOMMMM!!!

The flames actually hurt Sol and his armor, as such flames were of incredibly high purity while Sol's corruption to the dark side actually made his flames too corrupt as well, being too black, something so pure easily hurt him!

"AAAAGGGH…!

"CRAAAHHH…!"

The sound of both Sol and the armor screaming resonated across the skies, as Luminous emerged once more, charging all his magic together into an enormous magic circle to finish this off!

"Ultimate Divine Light Magic: Saint Breaker!"

FLAAASH!

An enormous blast of light hit Sol directly, as his armor began to slowly disintegrate, and his entire body was purified by this holy light!
