Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 2434: The Great Curse Of Yamata-No-Orochi

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Harumi constantly unleashed {Blood Bombs} upon Koga Saburo, mitigating his fast

regeneration by constantly dealing explosive damage all over his body.

His snakes were helpless blown away as well, but this was taking a toll on the young Dhampir, she was running out of Mana, and her Blood Energy, a unique power that Vampires had, was also about to run out.

"I haven't drunk blood in ages...! I'm so hungry!"

She couldn't drink the blood of Yokai, they would only infect her with curses or kill her. Human blood was her preference, of any race, gender, or age.

Harumi would usually get her daily blood from blood banks where people actively donated blood or even sold it. However, after her breakfast, she had forgotten to bring any.

"Hahh... Hahh...! This damn snake bastard won't ever die!"

"I've had enough! {Great Curse of Yamata-No-Orochi}: {Eight-Headed Cursed Viper Shinigami}" RUMBLE!

Suddenly, Koga Saburo screamed, his Cursed Soul spreading out into eight snake heads made of black fog, which destroyed Harumi's magic before they could hit him.

It was a Shinigami, a monstrous Spirit of Death born from Saburo's own Cursed Spirit! It rushed towards Harumi, as she flew down to evade its attacks!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Their attacks ended hitting the stone floor, leaving huge cracks each time. The worst part was that she couldn't paralyze them no matter how hard she tried, her eyes already beginning to bleed again because she overused her eyes against strong foes resistant to curses.

"Uughh...! T-This is hopeless!"

As she flew away, suddenly, she saw Frank moving right towards her, running across the sea of snakes as he blasted them into oblivion with beam of sunlight.

"Harumi!"

"Frank?!"

Harumi fell towards him, as Frank grabbed her with his arms, managing to save her from falling strongly into the floor.

"Are you alright? I thought you were... Matsuo healed you! Where is he?"

"He's unconscious! Ruby is taking care of him- I left a barrier around his body too. Here, drink this! It's the last one."

Frank gave her a Mana Potion as Harumi drank it, she had also seen him drinking one before The caught her midair.

As they descended towards the sea of snakes and the eight headed Shinigami viper, Frank gathered Mana into the tip of the staff Matsuo let him have and then, merged it with a small Domain he compacted into a tiny sphere.

"{Holy Beam}!"

TRUUUMMM!!!

The space that was compacted within the domain transformed the light into a all-destroying attack, shattering through space itself, leaving cracks in the empty air that weakened even Koga Saburo's domain itself!

BOOOMMM!!!

The beam blasted through all the snakes at once, decimating the little ones and cleaning the entire battlefield, at long last.

"You're still alive?!" Koga Saburo slowly walked towards them amidst the smoke, his body having almost completely healed back already. "You've been the most annoying prey I've targeted in a while now."

"And we'll be the last," said Frank. "Koga Saburo, I shall exorcise you!"

"Hah?!" Koga laughed. "Don't make me laugh! You?! You're not even a priest, faker bastard!"

"The goddess Amaterasu has approved of me utilizing this holy staff," said Frank. "And my body right now, is below her divine protection... This is all because of Matsuo's sacrifice... I won't make it be a waste."

With new resolve, Frank confronted the ancient evil demon, as he quickly began to overflow with an aura of purifying sunlight.

Harumi thought it would burn her, but it did nothing to her whatsoever... In fact, she felt more at ease with this aura close to her.

"If this is truly all your resolve..." Koga Saburo muttered, throwing away his robes to reveal his chest covered with countless snake-like eyes and curse marks. "Then I shall show you my complete power as well!"

FLUOSH!

Suddenly, the demonic snake released his full power, surging like thousands of snakes at once from his body, made entirely out of ethereal, cursed energies.

He put his hands together into a Ninjutsu hand sign, as his Ninjutsu combined with his Curse, creating his ultimate power.

"I shall release it all!"

RUMBLE!

The ground started trembling as Frank and Harumi rushed towards him... Frank gathered holy energies within the staff, quickly summoning not one, but dozens of holy light spears.

"My body moves mountains, and my fangs crush steel. I am neither mortal nor immortal, nor perfect nor imperfect..."

His eyes glowed bright red, as he transformed his arms into countless snakes, that began biting his entire body.

Then, more and more snakes appeared out of his body, biting it constantly, fusing with him, melting together into something...

Monstrous, gigantic, and horrendous.

"Prepare yourself! See now that which the holy mountain of Ibuki has bestowed upon my cursed soul! Power unto a God! I am the swarm! I am the snake made many! HAHAHAHAHA!"

RUMBLE!

"{Great Curse of Yamata-No-Orochi}: {Cursed Omen Of the Great Calamity God Ibuki}"

"SHYAAAAGGH!"

A gigantic height-headed snake with several eyes across its aberrant body, composed of thousands of smaller cursed snakes, and with the head of Koga fused into its chest emerged. "This is my all! Can you take it?! Can you fight against the curse that dwells within me, you foolish mortals?! It's hopeless! It's all hopeless for you! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

As Koga laughed, his gigantic body started moving towards Frank and Harumi, his jaws opened, releasing a storm of blazing purple flames, poisonous cursed fire!

FLUOOOSH!

Harumi and Frank panicked as they saw the endless flames coming from every angle, they

were unable to resist its fiery blaze!

"Burn to death! Flames of Calamity!!!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Countless explosions rushed towards Frank and Harumi as they ran away from them. Any

barrier Frank created would simply break instantly.

"With the flames getting in the way I can't even touch him!" Frank said.

"Then...!" Harumi glanced at his neck. "Frank! Let me drink your blood!"

"My blood?!" Frank gasped.

"It's the only way, I need to regain my energies!" she said. "Once I can top up, I'll go all-out,

and I'll give you the chance to exorcise him!"

"...Fine!" Frank didn't even think it through and accepted instantly. "Let's hurry!"
