I unhanded Catastrovania at last when I was able to and stumbled back. So she did, but I could not make her body out.
'Catastrovania?! Are you alright?! Speak to me!'
[CATASTROVANIA] "Hahahaha... I'm fine."
Oh thank NEGAI, she survived!
'Thank goodness! I was so worried about you! Cata, I... I'm sorry, I didn't admit to you that I didn't actually know how to do this beforehand... I put your soul in more risk than you did. I'm sorry...'
[CATASTROVANIA] "Nah, nah, don't worry about that. It worked out well."
'Hah...? So, you're alright? You managed to do it...? You... you managed to do it?!'
[CATASTROVANIA] "Yeah... Look at me, Muna! I'm glorious! I'm drowning in this incredible light! From the top of my head to my bottom toes! I can feel it! I can feel the new power surging in my veins! Ha! Haha!"
She went over and grabbed her pawn shop katana. She told me she wanted to try something, and I was amazed when the thing transformed in her hands from a dull novelty blade into a real weapon. It was silver, and reshaped. Now, she wielded a real sword.
[CATASTROVANIA] "...Fuck yeah."
'So you really did become a demigod. I'll be honest, I didn't think you could...'
[CATASTROVANIA] "Yeah... neither did I, so I won't hold that against you. But look how taking the plunge paid off in the end. I reckon now I should take some new name for my domain so long as I'm in this form."
'Domain? So you picked a sphere of influence?'
[CATASTROVANIA] "Yeah. Decisiveness."
'Huh...? Well... I would have thought that would be Woldor's... but I guess the Wargod is still capable of losing.'
[CATASTROVANIA] "I think I'm ready to admit something to you. Catastrovania's not really my name."
'I mean, I kind of expected that...' I said, standing up straight again. She smirked behind her silver aura.
[CATASTROVANIA] "Of course, it's what you all know me as, but the name is a moniker I took since I became a cat. Before that? It was just Strifaust Morituros, since I wanted a western name to hide my identity behind. I stopped using my real name out of shame..."
'Shame?'
[CATASTROVANIA] "You see, I was exiled at an early age in Yongesia from my home ward all because I offended a poverty god back then. So I ended up spending a lot of my life as a nobody since. I've always had a lot of encounters with good and bad luck. But it was that one streak of unluckiness I had for most of my life since what I did as a child that always made me feel so ashamed, and it brought a lot of shame onto my ward and family too. But now that I've finally reached this high point, I no longer feel ashamed of it. After all, how could I feel ashamed of being this person with that name when I've finally done what tens of thousands of others could only dream of even in their outrageous lifetimes?"
[MAJORDOMO] "Here we go with the Yongesian cartoon villain talk again..."
