Monster Species: Voidling Caterpillar
HP: 100% / 100%
MP: 100% / 100%
Description: A Faux Mana Caterpillar that has changed its species due to being affected by the mana of a Daemos. It now has an appetite for Origin mana as it will look for its closest source. It can easily sap away at mana from any target it chooses as it will make sure that it does not get caught by only absorbing the excess from the target.
This is the first species of Voidling Caterpillar that has been born in this universe. Not much is known about this monster as it is the first of its kind. It does look like it is close to shedding which ans its next stage of evolution is coming closer.

"It seems that I have inadvertently created another being from scratch, but this is through an accident." Adrian stated as he did not expect that it was the first Voidling Caterpillar to be ever born.
Adrian thought that it was a good thing that Kenos followed his trail or else it might have been used for other purposes. Adrian saw its skills and it was actually extrely close to what the Daemos could do. He now has a soulbound that could use Origin Magic just like him but just smaller in scale.

Adrian could now see how he was found by Kenos, and it actually had defensive and movent skills. It was a being that could only protect itself and is not able to attack. What Adrian wanted to see is how the Wormhole skill applies its logic as there was no range given to him.
The Wormhole is similar to the portals that the Daemos conjure up, but mana is actually needed in order to stabilize it. Portals are also very volatile which is why Daemos Corps mbers that guard these passageways should be able to close them if a complication arises. The fact that a small three feet long and one-foot-high worm could create one is almost absurd.
"Greater Summon: Kenos!" Adrian imdiately summoned Kenos as he wanted to see how the Wormhole skill functions.
The Voidling Caterpillar looked sowhat beat up as it was now fully awake. Adrian swears that it was just sleeping a few seconds ago but it was now wide awake. It even looked at Paradox and glared while doing so wriggling motions as if it was protesting.
"I actually cannot understand you. I guess this is the weakness of insectoid summons." Adrian stated as insectoid summons are famous for being unable to converse at their early stages.
Adrian is able to command Kenos with ease as it can obey commands, but the latter is not able to vocally say what is troubling it. Kenos could only sigh with frustration as it does not have the capacity to speak to its master. Adrian could see that it has high intelligence though which ans it might be able to speak if it undergoes tamorphosis.
Insectoid summons or soulbounds are different from normal monster soulbounds. Insectoid soulbounds do not adhere to the typical evolution where just giving it an item will make it evolve and such. Insectoid soulbounds undergo a process called tamorphosis which changes their overall body.
The only difficult thing is that the way to trigger tamorphosis as it is basically a way for insectoid soulbounds to evolve twice in just one process. tamorphosis would include Larva Stage (Kenos' caterpillar form) then the Pupae Stage and the Adult Stage. If an Insectoid Soulbound erges into its Adult Stage, then it is equivalent to a monster evolving two tis already.
The tamorphosis cycle is why insect monsters are both easy and difficult to raise. There are insectoid monsters that are easy to turn into adults as they are found early in the ga. Summoners would often ta these insectoid monsters so that they can have an early power boost.
What is difficult are the rare insectoid monsters as they have incredibly specific condition to trigger tamorphosis. Even Mariposa has reportedly only two rare insectoid soulbounds in their adult stages. Still, she is incredibly difficult to defeat because of this two adult stage insectoid soulbounds.
"I guess I would need to study you as well. A new species ans new ways for you to trigger tamorphosis but that can wait. Kenos use Wormhole!" Adrian commanded as he just wants to see how the skill functions for now and would trouble himself to evolve the critter later.
