Epic of Caterpillar

"Woooaah! Is this the underground?!" wondered Mao.

"It sure changed, right?"

Apparently, the very world my realm has become has been divided into dimensional membranes, realms of their own. The surface is where we all inhabit, its like the most basic mantle, then the underground became like something similar to a "world inside a world".

There are clouds, a sky, and there's even artificial sunlight and even a moon. Right below us there was a huge garden of beautiful blue flowers, overflowing with Ether and Mana everywhere, there were many Cosmic Soul beasts foraging around.

This wasn't a really safe place for most inhabitants, as this second layer of my world realm had become concentrated with a lot of energy, only gods live here, mostly in their own divine realms anyways.

And yes, the Origin System itself is the star, fused with my ever-growing Star Realm Core, it grows and expands, generating millions of rivers of Cosmic System Essence. But above all, that huge castle was something the two girls that live together over there built.

They maintain the new System and like to work on it diligently, even though I tell them they can always take breaks if they want... Well, they just like helping me.

"What is that huge castle?" Mao pointed at the distance.

"That's where Astraea and Andromeda live and maintain the new Origin System," I explained. "Let's go check on them."

We flew there and immediately were received. Astraea and Andromeda ran to my side the moment I entered the castle hugging me tightly and kissing me all over my face.

"Welcome back Kireina-sama," Andromeda said cutely, her neon blue eyes shining and taking the shape of pink-colored pixel hearts as she kissed me with her soft lips. "Oh? Is this... Wait, Mao? It has been a while since I haven't seen her!"

"Gaoo! It's me indeed!" Mao nodded, beginning to talk with Andromeda and updating her about her life.

"Honey, welcome back!" Astraea said, kissing my lips several times. "Mooch, mooch, mooch! Look, it's so big now!"

"Oooh?"

She showed me her big pregnant belly, it was indeed very big, I think this is as big as it'll get. She might be giving birth very soon!

"That's true! It's gotten really big... Somehow it makes you look even cuter," I giggled. "Let me kiss it~!"

"E-Eh? Ah, dear..." she blushed as I lifted her dress and kissed her big belly.

It was very warm and there was someone there, our beautiful child was rapidly developing.

As I caressed her soft white skin, I suddenly felt a tiny hand poking from inside. "Ooh? So cute! You want to give your mommy your hand?"

"Ahh, they do this all the time now," giggled Astraea. "Sometimes they also give little kicks, hehe."

"So cute!" I put my hand gently on her belly, as the baby put their tiny hand back.

I was melting out of cuteness.

"N-Now, dear, aren't you busy? Don't spend all the time kissing my belly... It's embarrassing," Astraea said.

"Ah! Right..." I nodded. "I came to check on Origin too! How is the kid?"

"They're fine, they have grown bigger," said Andromeda. "They might soon come out of the core, as they've fully formed."

"I see... That was much faster than I imagined," I said. "Though, I had also thought they would stay there forever..."

"Nah, I've studied their biology enough to understand that they can live outside the core," Andromeda explained. "They helped the System itself form too, yes, but the Core itself is more like an egg for them to be incubated."

"I see... Oh, it's here?"

We walked across a few corridors while I held Astraea's hand and walked slowly, she couldn't move too quickly now as she was having cramps in her legs sometimes.

Even Gods like her that have ascended into World Realm beings and beyond get leg cramps when pregnant, huh...

"There, yes."

Andromeda pointed into the distance, the huge sphere of blinding white, golden, and silver light that constantly spun around.

There was a small silhouette inside, floating around, sleeping calmly.

"There they are..."

Honestly, I don't know if they're a boy or a girl, both, or none yet... But it's my baby anyways.

It's nice that Origin can be used for a name for any gender.

"It seems you've arrived..."

Suddenly, a third lady appeared, a rather shy and elusive, and distant one. She was the personification of Frank's Trait, his System, which remained in here, as she had fused herself

with my System and the Soul Book to create the Origin System.

Of course, she can also be with Frank, but she chose to take residence in here through this form as well, as she is now fused with the Origin System...

"Oh, hello System, how are you?"

"I've been mostly meditating. Frank is close to here. Please go find him immediately after this."

"I-Is he in danger?"

"No, but he's very exhausted. Although I fear he might fall into danger soon."

"I understand, I'll go pick that boy right away once I go out."

As I touched the glass-like coverture of the Star Core, suddenly, I noticed Origin slowly "swam" towards me, as he floated amidst the endless essence.

"Buh...?"

Slowly, they opened their beautiful, big neon blue colored eyes, I noticed they had clean white skin, with few silver-colored lines across their body. He also had short white hair,

which seemed very silky.

And... Hm?

"Buuuhh!"

Suddenly, the baby child just kept swimming towards me, until he touched the glass-like

surface and...

Passed through it!

"Wait a second..."

FLASH!

A bright white light emerged from the core, as he rapidly tried to get out of the core.

I panicked, but managed to grab him before he was to fall into the ground.

"W-What! Origin?! You've been born!"

"Origin!"

Andromeda ran towards our child, quickly hugging him as he was on my arms, looking around

in wonder, with his big and beautiful eyes.

"Ma... ma?"

Oh my gosh, and he was already saying words?!

Such a smart kid!

"Aahhh, so cute! Origin- Ugh?!"

Suddenly, it was Astraea the one having problems.

"A-Ah, I think I peed myself?" wondered Astraea. "H-Huh? Is something coming- Ah! I think

the baby is coming!"

"Huh?!"

And right after that, I got an urgent telepathic message.

"Kireina! Agatheina is about to give birth! Please quickly come here to help her!"

It was Alice calling me.
