Epic Of Caterpillar

"Luminous is that you?" I asked.

"Yes… It is me." The Silver Lizardman answered. "Do I look scary to you? Woah, I never experienced being so small before. The world surely feels different… Is this what being an ant feels like? Amazing… Everything small is suddenly very big!" He said in surprise.

"Hey why are you calling ants now!" I angrily said.

"That's not fair you're just too big!" Ariant said.

"Yeah! You're the weirdo here!" Eriant said after his sister.

"Well, what sort of Skill did you got?" I asked.

"I found something named Humanification, I thought I could become human-like, like you." Luminous sighed. "I don't know why I am in this form though. And the worst part is that it is draining MP quite rapidly, around 1 per second."

"Don't you have like thousands?" I sighed.

"R-Right… But still!" He complained. "Also I thought I would become like… a handsome human with clear white skin and long silver hair…"

"Well maybe it becomes more clearer as you level up the skill?" I asked.

"I guess I'll simply have to wait, the skill might improve once it levels up." He sighed.

"Yeah, just keep it activated at all times, eventually you'll get there… Eventually." I laughed a bit.

"Hmph, it is not funny at all…!" Luminous said. "But… I wonder if the humans would tolerate this appearance." He wondered. "Are we not going to a town?"

"Yeah we are taking a small detour there, but we are not staying or something, just an hour or two to see what's up and then we continue our path." I said.

"Well by a few hours more it'll be night so we can stay to sleep in a comfy inn…" Said Ariant.

"I want to wash myself in a bathtub with warm water…" Sighed Fiere.

"I also desire the same." Ariant cried.

"Ah, me too…" Eriant cried.

"Geez… Fine, fine! I guess we deserve it." I said.

As the food was being cooked Luminous quickly came to sit at our side. It felt like a completely different person showed up, some sort of snarky and overly prideful giant lizardman with silver scales. But we can't complain, this size is just better for now than his enormous mountain-sized form.

"Hm, getting used to this form's a pain…" He sighed, beginning to move around his body and sometimes tripping over the floor. "How can you make it feel so easy?" He asked me.

"I practiced for a long time, I've been an innate shapeshifter since always, I also evolved into a Fairy so I always had this form in a way… No, a more adult form than this teenager one." I nodded. "But yeah, pretty much that."

"So you were saying the truth…" He sighed. "Hahh… This is a pain to get used to. My body is way too light…"

"Just do some basic exercise." I said.

"Ggrrr…"

Luminous groaned as he began doing sit-ups and then push-ups as the food was being prepared. In the meantime, as the food was getting ready and Frank was buying the list of materials, I decided to just summon my third Maxima Summon for now.

Colora was a Maxima Summon and also an Ego together, so I plan to enchant her and upgrade her the same way as the other Egos, so that's why I am holding on her evolving just yet. However that doesn't stop me from summoning the third one which became available a bit ago.

"Bubuu!"

Suddenly, the little Bubu appeared over my head. Apparently, he can shapeshift from his Full Dragon Form to his Tiny Energy Saving Mode, which turns him into the tiny and cute Caterpillar I remember, slightly smaller than the classic one though and now mostly black and purple colored.

"Bubu, do you want to see your new friend?" I asked.

"Buuuu!" He was excited. Bubu started jumping around my head and then the ground constantly. Thankfully he was a light weighted creature, or he would had blown my head away rather easily…

"Ah, Master, are you summoning someone new?" Wondered Colora. She could shapeshift from a beautiful and small fairy to a large paint brush at will, in her fairy form, she was capable of talking through a mouth.

"Yeah that's exactly what I am planning to do right now." I nodded. "Colora, how are the seeds?"

"I have already planted them!" She said happily, her shiny eyes shone with rainbow light. Those rainbow eyes reminded me of my dear Rimuru, damn, I miss her. I want to cuddle all night with her like before…

A-Anyways, Colora has a variety of awesome Skills, amongst them, there's this!

-----

[Sacred Rainbow Seeds]

Channeling the wondrous power of the Dao of Colors, the user is capable of transforming a Painting stored within a Canvas into a Sacred Rainbow Seed that can be planted in rich soil and then will sprout by the infusion of Mana and the command of the user or their master.

This will automatically make whatever Canvas was there emerge and be summoned, of course, as long as the stats of the painter match the total envisioned power of the canvas. Seeds can also be modified to be given specific effects or create [Divine Color Plants] where special Divine Colors which cannot be created naturally can be extracted. All power and effects are enhanced with each Skill Level.

-----

This Ability allows her to create special Sacred Rainbow Seeds she can plant over the floor and that will sprout into beautiful and colorful plants, herbs, flowers, and the like, filled with a Color she can extract and use for her other Skills…

However! These plants are not just colors that can be extracted, but they are also Divine Color Plants, low-rank Divine Materials! If they're not just used for her colors, I can actually use them for alchemy and forging too, they're all precious materials for enchantment and creation of items!

I cannot replicate them with Yggdrasil Spirit, sadly, but Colora can make as many as she has MP!
