After devouring Loid and several of the corpses of the paladins, Chaos gained an impressively big amount of new Skills, so many it gave him a little headache… well, soul-ache.
Aside from this, he had reached Peak Stage in Existence Realm and Blood Core and Dragon Heart, meaning that he was now ready to evolve once more.
It really came as a surprise to him, but it seems that he managed to pull through the challenge with all of his might, and ended growing very strong out of it.
Chaos considered that he ended using almost 70% of all the Skills he had learned, several of them came into use through the entire battle, so he appreciated having been this glutton, as most of them served him greatly.
The number of Skills he had acquired was big, he even gained the power to resist holy light, which seemed effective on him, and even the power to absorb sunlight even if he was a Vampire, although he lacked the usual vampire weaknesses, this seemed quite ironic, as Vampires were very weak to sunlight and had to dedicate a large number of their resources into developing techniques and spells, or even artifacts, to help them resist the sunlight.
Chaos also gained several Job Skills, each one seemed to belong to one of these Paladins, the Hero one was obviously from Loid, whose actual name Chaos didn’t even know about, aside from him being a formidable enemy and a tasty meal.
Chaos slowly regenerated his body back to a humanoid form after the battle. Although his head was blasted into pieces and so half of his torso, he seemed to be alive even then, thanks to his [All Body and Flesh Manipulation, Division, and Assimilation] Skill, which lets all parts of his body be easily manipulated and even replicated, essentially making him a slime made of flesh to an extent.
Even if his head was blown off, Chaos would be fine, as he most of the time stored his mind and thoughts inside of his chaotic soul and not into his brain, which usually had a second mind instead.
Due to this, and his amazing Vitality Points and natural Vitality regeneration, he was able to survive the attack, although his Vitality had dropped below 50% after receiving such damage, he quickly managed to kill Loid before Loid could retaliate and ultimately defeat him. Despite how it looked like, the fight was very close, and Chaos was able to feel the tension and challenge within it, it was perhaps at the same level as his battle against the Elder Winter Dragon, if not a bit more difficult…
Chaos had learned valuable lessons in how to fight through this battle, although he could have wished it lasted longer, if it did, Loid would have killed him… So, it was better to have ended it by devouring him alive.
However, Chaos couldn’t stop thinking about the delicious flavor that a Human as strong as Loid and the paladins had. It was utterly scrumptious, a flavor so delicious it was comparable to the Elder Dragons he fought and ate…
The best thing was the “core” that some of them, including Loid, had, which was named Holy Mana Core or something. It was a special organ that Humans of high caste or perhaps with a lot of money developed through Alchemy inside of their chests, which helped them at the ability to develop Magic power and potency, and also as a cultivation organ similar to Blood Cores. These Cores were definitely the most tasteful and the ones with the most essential of all of the rest, they made Chaos jump through the cultivation Ranks like nobody’s business.
After this, Chaos flew down below and confronted Chris and the surviving Paladin, which he decided to not eat as he wanted to extract info from them.
As they were weakened, he used the Psionic Art “Mind Control” to use Psionic Energy inside of their minds, forcing them into complete submission to his will.
After that, he called it a day and brought the giant spaceship by putting it inside of his Inventory.
Chris and the Paladin were then sent into the underground prison of the castle, where Chaos took away all their equipment and discovered that the remaining Paladin was a woman with short blonde hair and aquamarine eyes, but he didn’t care about that.
The problem was that they were too strong, whenever they were to snap out of his power and they were to try to escape, they would make a mess with their powerful magic and techniques, even without equipment.
Chaos decided to use Runes and created special seals that resembled tattoos across their entire bodies, sealing their magic usage by almost 99%, although their monstrous strength remained, without magic to fuel it properly, they would not be so strong.
He reinforced the ceilings, walls, racks, and everything as well, and then created a Clone to watch over them all the time.
“And done…”
Chaos decided to quickly go back to his room after the little skirmish, as he left everyone preparing a feast to celebrate their victory.
“My lord, hurry up so we can eat together!” said Abyss.
“Hurry papa!” said Erebus.
“Okay, wait a bit,” said Chaos, as he sat over his bed and glanced at his evolution options.
