Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 2383: The Two Strange Visitors



The two steel machines that appeared out of nowhere, whose designs were much more sci-fi than fantastic like those that Kireina possessed, with enormous humanoid bodies covered on heavy plates of silver and neon blue color and with heads with a large single red-colored "Eye" made of light.

"Stay still, we'll heal her."

Raito didn't know what happened, but he clearly heard a person's voice inside the machines. "Huh? What?!"

And these machine designs were too strange, completely different from Kireina's mechs!

These beings, which Raito immediately thought were new enemies, instead of attacking them, healed Palami using a strange neon blue light that encompassed her body! His senses didn't betray him either, it wasn't magic at all.

FLUOSH!

Within seconds, the neon blue light gathered around Palami, rapidly and quickly literally printing her new arms, and also healing all her other wounds. It was something that only advanced healing divine spells or elixirs could do now, as they were gods.

"Ahhh! Hahhh...!" she rapidly opened her eyes, suddenly feeling full of energy. "W-What happened?! Raito? Huh?!"

Palami was utterly shocked she was fine, and then she noticed the giant robots in the sky, becoming slightly aware of their presence, unsheathing her sword.

"Palami!" Raito cried, hugging Palami as he cried. "I'm so sorry for being so reckless..."

However, Raito ended throwing her off guard as he hugged her, making her even angrier after what happened.

She had had enough of his recklessness!

"Raito... Agh, you idiot! Now I remember! Stop being so reckless!" Palami slammed his head with her fist.

BAAAM!

"Ouch, ouch! Aaagh! Please don't hit me so hard!" Raito continued complaining.

He truly didn't deserve Palami...

Raito groaned and then asked for forgiveness, prostrating himself in front of Palami and lowering his head, putting it over the cold ice floor.

All while an intense battle continued right behind them!

The two giant machines looked at one another, being completely ignored by the shenanigans of the two.

"The beings of these worlds... They sure are strange."

"It feels like they work through a different logic entirely."

The two couldn't help but agree with this, they were indeed very strange and perhaps bizarre, despite the danger they're going through and all, they aren't completely afraid.

In fact, they're too brave and reckless, they follow no protocols, no proper plans, they simply charge blindly and rely on their supernatural powers.

"Compared to us, they are indeed strange lifeforms," nodded one of the machines. "However, they're unique and very... humane, in a way. To eliminate them would be not only foolish but a terrible sin."

"Indeed," nodded the other. "The Confederation is simply wrong, to genocide all these beings... these people to reclaim our already torn world, it's beyond foolish and ignorant."

As they talked about things Raito and Palami couldn't understand, they calmed down and then glanced at them.

"Thank you for healing me," said Palami. "I have never seen you people before, but I'm grateful for what you've done. Are you people from this world?"

"Thanks a lot!" Raito nodded. "If you healed her, I could at least guess you have no bad intentions... But who are you guys?"

The machines glanced at them in silence.

"We are members of the Intergalactic Confederation," said one of them.

"Specifically, soldiers that descend from the last bastion of humanity that once left your original world, Earth," said the other.

One was clearly a male over his thirties based on their voice alone, while the second was a younger female, perhaps in her early to mid-twenties.

"Earth? Our world is called Genesis... Wait, Humanity?" wondered Palami. "You mean you guys are... humans?"

"Honestly, been a while since I've seen one of those!" laughed Raito. "But aren't you giant robots though?"

"We are surprised you know the concept of robots..." said the man.

"These aren't our real bodies but large Mechanical Body Suits," said the woman. "We are actually inside, protected from the hostile environment outside."

"Oh, so you can't cultivate or level up?" Palami muttered.

"I guess they're just plain ol' humans then," Raito said. "Wait, no way! Those robots are too strong though, no? If they could heal Palami... They're surely powerful on their own right!"

"Yes, we are indeed Humans. We've heard that our kind still prospers in your world, although a lot has happened through eons since we left after the invasion of the alien lifeform known as G.E.N.E.S.I.S., we've finally found our world and we wanted to come back..." said the woman. "The Intergalactic Confederation had proposed an aggressive invasion as it catalogued all lifeforms within the New Earth as dangerous beings that could threaten our civilization." "Wait what?!" asked Palami. "S-So let me get this straight, you are Humans from... Genesis? No, Earth? It was called like that before? And then you came back after escaping once an... alien? Invaded? And now you got these robots and... Um, you want to take back your world

from us?"

"Not us," said the woman. "We belong to the Peaceful Intergalactic Relationships Faction, the second largest political faction. We've been dispatching our forces to stop the Extremists to continue their genocidal invasion... But we ended landing in here."

"But aside from that, we are normal humans, genetically enhanced, but we could never compare to beings such as you without the assistance of our machinery," said the man.

"We're trusting to you these secrets because we would want to forge a temporary alliance with your kind," said the woman.

"Alliance?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Palami and Raito glanced at one another, unable to properly think what to say.

This was too much for them, an incredible revelation!

However, weren't they forgetting about something?

"UUUOOOOHHHHH!"

And in that moment, suddenly, the roaring scream of Asure echoed behind everyone, as his entire body started to heat and then freeze, yet the metal he produced was growing endlessly.

"Dammit! Just die... ALREADY!"

With a furious roar, suddenly, all the metal within his body converged into a single point, forming a huge silver axe, swinging it down and slashing through the Frost and Fire Titan.

SLAAASH!

The entire elemental of fire and ice collapsed, its elements dissipating as a giant crystal ball fell into the ground, shattering and gaining a few cracks.

There was someone inside, a person.

"Hahh... Hahh... I did it..."

The giant Asure sighed in relief, completely unaware of yet another elemental right behind

him.

"ASURE!" "Ah!"

BOOOM!
