Katsuyu, Who Controlled All Matter and Energy on a Planet

The superposition of matter, after pausing for an instant, suddenly became incomparably intense.

A fierce radiance even erupted from Katsuyu's body, bathing the crooked, toppled forest around her in snowy white. The Orcs hiding in the jungle all cried out miserably and covered their eyes.

Even Treasure Tree, the First Ancient Tree, developed burning spots of light in his yellow gemstone eyes set within his oak-bodied form, falling temporarily blind.

Within the blinding light, the blue-and-white slug as large as a building vanished. In her place appeared a tall, voluptuous woman.

She had long hair streaked in blue and white, snow-white skin, and a pair of ink-black eyes. Yet the most eye-catching thing about her was still her formidable bosom.

Well, aside from her tranquil, detached aura, the most striking thing about this great beauty was her astonishing height—she was unquestionably over two meters sixty tall.

Yet the only observer before her was himself over six meters tall. To Treasure Tree, Katsuyu seemed exceptionally short, no longer the giant slug he knew.

Fortunately, Ancient Trees never recognized one another by appearance. As Ancient Trees whose true bodies were molten, fluid lava, there was no distinguishing external trait between them besides size.

Even the Treant bodies Ancient Trees used to move about by inhabiting trees were merely outer garments for their souls. They could change them every day when in a good mood, so they could not serve as identifying features.

Ancient Trees recognized one another by the characteristics of their energy fluctuations, not by external appearances.

When Katsuyu shrank from a gigantic mountain-like slug to a "small" slug several hundred meters long, Treasure Tree had recognized her without effort. Now that she had instantly changed from a slug into a human form, he still recognized her just as easily.
