Chapter 43: Star Eater
As I jolt awake, I find myself back in my bed, soaked in sweat. I gasp for air and feel something coming up from my chest. I start coughing and crawl over to the side of my bed. I cough up some sort of black sludge that immediately starts eating through the black carpet of my bedroom. I use some abyssal breath to destroy it, but find that it does absolutely nothing to it. Well, it's a good thing that whatever that is is out of me. I see that over time the glob of whatever starts to disappear after eating through about a foot of ground.
I replace the ground underneath, but I'll need an actual worker to recarpet the bedroom.
Anyways, with that out of the way, describe that new skill.
[Abyssal Star Devourer: you are able to gain energy from stars like a parasite. The amount of energy differs from star to star.]
Ah. It's pretty cool. I'm gonna go try it out real quick. I inform Lucy this time, and take off into the stars yet again. I teleport to a random star system with very few planets. This system only has two full planets and they're both dead. I fly over to the star, which is bright orange, and activate my skill. I feel my body start heating up and absorbing the plasma from the star. My body falls into a sort of trance and starts orbiting around the star. Several hours go by as I fully absorb the entire star.
I slowly but surely wake up.

[Note: Size change hasn't taken effect due to the gravitational interference of a star. Due to your absorption of this star, size change can take effect. This will lead to growth without limits. You will still be able to enter star systems, however in your full size you may possibly develop your own gravity. Proceed?]
Oh. Uh. Yeah, sure.
I feel myself curl into a ball and change into my bird form yet again. A sort of egg forms around me as I fall asleep.

[10 years later]
I wake up and see pitch blackness around me. I feel… Sluggish. Like I could sleep until the end of the universe and nothing would wake me. Except of course a notification from the system.

WAIT A GODDANG MOTHERFATHER H-E DOUBLE HOCKEYSTICKS FUDGING SECOND! HOW BIG AM I?!
At my full size, I'm nearly five times the size of the earths atmosphere! If I stood on earths surface at full height, I'd be visible from space! And this is only after like a few thousand years! If I had this magicule generation during the godzilla era, I'd be in the quadrillions of magicules, so I'd probably be bigger than the sun! Hah. Milim's ability really is unfathomable.
I decide to fly over to another star and absorb it, but find a system interface blocking my vision.
[Note: Due to the rapid gain of magicules, this ability has a cooldown for your safety. If you absorb this star, it will take a few years before you are able to absorb another.]
Well, that's fine with me. My full size is rather… Gigantic to say the least. When I orbit the star, I look similar to a planetoid. Slowly, the corona of the star I'm orbiting starts to envelope my body. This star is more yellow than orange, and feels much hotter than the last one. It takes a few days for me to absorb this one.

Bah, 9 years is nothing. I'll be absorbing stars over and over again till canon. I shrink myself back to a normal size and teleport back into the tensura system. I stop by Lapis and say hi to Undine, then I head back to tensura. I fly back into my temple and get a sit-rep from Raphael. Apparently, the Western Holy Church has started condoning acts of violence against members of my own church. Ah, I never mentioned it. My church is called the Church of Holy Shadow. I didn't come up with the name, but whoever did probably couldn't think of anything else and wants better suggestions in the comments.
I tell Raphael to let my believers know that it is right to defend oneself as well as others around them, so do not hold back against those fuckers. I'm sure she'll word it better. I wouldn't care if my religion became a war-like one, but I doubt it will with the tenants I set up at the beginning. I inform Raphael that I'll be asleep for about another hundred or so years.
I get up and go back to my bedroom, finding the sheets clean, the bed made, and the flooring recarpeted. My room has no light whatsoever, being completely dark when the door is closed. I lay down in the comfort of my bed, letting the silk wrap around my naked body. Obviously, the only way to sleep is naked.
As I drift off to sleep, I imagine myself in an onsen, drinking a whiskey and eating some noodles. Ahhh. I can't wait.
Time to sleep till canon!
