I looked at all of Bubu's three evolution options, each one was more insane than the previous one- no, the draconic one was certainly the best to be honest. However, it really leaves me concerned about everything. If these are the three evolutions that Bubu can take right now, doesn't this means that he's not actually going to evolve back into his original form but… in something more entirely? I don't want him to just turn into a generic-looking dragon or something, but if we can get more power that way then… I guess I'll have to sacrifice originality.

However, this is merely Larvae stage, he probably will continue evolving more and more. If this is Pokémon, he might end as something like a Flygon, or maybe just a Dragonfly? Well, whatever's the case, this is strangely exciting to think about…

Ultimately, maybe I should let him check each evolution.

"Bubu, come here, look."

I quickly showed him each evolution in a row, as I waited for his reactions.

[A v a i l a b l e Evolution Options for [Bubu]

[Primordial Chaos Caterpillar Draconic Larvae (Divine Species)]

[Rank: C+]

A species of powerful Primordial Chaos Caterpillar that has mutated a Draconic Bloodline and Soul. It is still in development, but it is capable of covering its own body with powerful element-resistant scales and breathe fire that can be imbued with the element of chaos. These strange creatures are often shaped in a way to scare off predators by pretending to be larger and more intimidating Primordial Darkness Dragons that roam the Cosmos. It has an incredible, untapped potential and is capable of developing Dragon-only abilities and even evolve further into a half-dragon entity.

"Bubu, what do you think of this one?"

"Bubuuu…"

Bubu had a high Intelligence stat, so he probably should be able to understand and read. He seemed rather confused about what he read though, but suddenly got rather excited.

Then he, glossed over the others as well but didn't seemed all that excited about them. The Phantasmal Evolution made him yawn and the Infernal one also seemed to bore him. The only one that kept his attention was this one, the dragon one.

"A-Alright then…"

As I was about to make him evolve, I stopped, thinking a bit about everything… If this was happening with Bubu, wasn't I also going to evolve into something I wasn't before? Well, I already have done it. After all, I never went through Cocoon stages like I did just some time ago. And this new Butterfly stage is also completely new… I might end up continue evolving into new things.

Honestly, that's for the better, more fun that way. I am already evolving into something stronger than my previous self if I continue like this. Perhaps Bubu and the Ego Weapons all will evolve in the same way as well, I assume.

"Alright then buddy, you want this one?"

"Bubuuuuu!"

"Okay!"

Ding!

[You have selected the [Primordial Chaos Caterpillar Draconic Larvae (Divine Species)] Evolution Option for [Bubu]!]

F L A A A A S S S S H H H!

Suddenly Bubu was encompassed in a black egg! This egg materialized out of pure chaotic essence, and continued growing larger and more resilient over time, until it suddenly stopped, leaving him there…

"Eh?"

I looked at the egg but it was not hatching.

"B-Bubu?"

I couldn't hear anything, but I could sense Bubu's presence inside was constantly growing stronger, bigger, and strangely more intimidating as well. I saw as if the aura emerging from the egg was being slowly shaped as a furious dragon.

"I-Is Bubu really becoming a draconic caterpillar?" Asked Aquamarine in shock.

"I… I have no clue to be honest, we'll have to see by ourselves as this continues, but for now, let's wait and see…"

At the end, a window appeared in front of the egg as I grabbed it with my arms.

[Egg will hatch in… 12 Hours, 58 Minutes, 29 Seconds…]

"So half a day? Oh well, the night is here so let's wait for him to fully develop. This evolution seems very important." I said, quickly walking back to the village, as I was greeted by everybody there.

"Welcome, Kireina-sama!"

"Our goddess is back!"

"We should make a feast for her!"

"But we don't really have much food at all, the plants she made are still slowly making fruits…"

The people seemed to have wanted to make a feast for me. After all I've helped them a whole bunch just now, and just wanted to repay me for all of what I've done.

Seeing all these people gathered here, I couldn't help but smile a little bit that they were all safe. It is strange but I am really happy they survived. Seeing the people surviving against the harshness of the desert and all… and then the children wandering around, looking at me curiously from behind buildings… although I had their same appearance in terms of age I guess I really was something different, so they didn't get near.

But man, seeing kids really awaken my motherly instincts, and fucking hell I miss my kids! Scarlet, Ailine, Valentia, Aarae! Uwah, I miss you all! Mommy want you all!

Ugh… I really have to get my shit together.

I won't get anywhere if I just cry. I am already halfway through my goal of beating the shit out of the Demon King, getting the staircase, and then escaping to Genesis.

I have to maintain myself calm.

If I begin to despair… then I will lose everything else keeping me up in this world.

I've already died, I've already fought against so many powerful foes… I can do this.

My children, my family… I will go meet you soon.

Just wait a bit longer.

As I looked at the night sky, the beautiful stars shone brightly.

I took a peek at the Lesser Yggdrasil, already bigger than a skyscraper, it was beautiful below the moonlight...
