Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 2522: Zagreus Gets Serious



Kralax faced an abomination beyond his wildest imaginations, an inhabitant of the Dream Plane. A plane that was not ethereal nor physical, but conceptual. A world born from memories, dreams, nightmares, fears, love, obsession, all of what made living beings what they were, it was an abstract dimension, born out of mere concepts that both existed and didn't exist. It was perhaps even worse than the Outer Gods, who were born from the Shadow of a Primordial God of the Void and Destruction.

Kralax, who came from Hell, was a powerful demon, considered just almost strong enough to be a Duke, he had been climbing towards his goal of one day becoming the King of a Layer his entire life, with tooth and nail, blood and tears, he had massacred everything on his way towards his goals. He was an in-born warrior, a cruel and sadistic one, but also one that had incredible experience in battle and knew when he had to...

Retreat.

"I will devour you... Delicious soul... dreams... hope... fear...! Scrumptious! I can see it... Ahhh!"

The Dream Plane inhabitant twisted reality around Kralax as the demon struggled, seeing countless images of his childhood, of the time Kralax was born in the wilderness of hell and had to survive to get where he was, the many battles he almost didn't win, the agonizing defeats and how he always barely escaped with his life.

"S-STOP...! STOP LOOKING AT MY MEMORIES! YOU DAMNED...! NNGGHH...!"

Kralax started vomiting blood as he felt his entire existence being drained, the Dream Plane Inhabitant was burning and being pushed back, but it endlessly reshaped itself to adapt to him.

When Kralax unleashed powerful physical attacks, the Dream Plane Inhabitant would transform, resembling a being made of distorted fragments of walls, houses, stone, and diamonds.

CLANK! CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
