Chapter 246: Shady Trio

-----

The group had suddenly made two little and cute friends, the little twins were willing to help them in exchange for more tasty fruit if they had more, so they were willing to help them out! These news were big, and it made Belphegor and the rest grow happier than ever, thinking about the possibility of actually being able to find a way to help Chaos was their duty now, and it made them feel a bit more relieved that such a path could open now before them.

However, this world was one of many dangers, this planet by itself contained many monsters and powerful creatures roaming around, the trip back to the tribe seemed long too, as the tsunami provoked by the giant frog ended shaking the entire place down, throwing the kids from their original positions.

"However, it will take some time to get there, we can detect that we ended stranding way too far…" sighed Armonia.

"Indeed… is this okay? Can you carry us there?" asked Ermenia.

"S-Sure thing! I can carry you kids if you want, just guide us there." Said Abyss with a gentle smile. This was her first time interacting this much with non-allies of Chaos, so she felt like she was developing her social skills.

"Thank you children, you're a god send. Even if there is no hope, perhaps others might not think the same. There is no point in not seeking more answers. As a man that likes to research, I've never given up in my pursue of the truth." Said Edward, as he gave the kids oranges this time around.

"Wow, these are rough outside…" said Armonia.

"Huh? They're bitter but very aromatic…" said Ermenia.

"Ah no, you pust peel them first, like this." Edward said, with a gentle and patient smile, he peeled the oranges for the kids, showing them how it was done. After that, he cut them into pieces easily.

"Wow! So juicy! Uwaaahhh…" sighed Armonia in happiness.

"Sho tashty too! Wow!" said Ermenia.

"I am glad you like them." Said Edward.

After the kids filled their bellies, the group decided to sit down for a few minutes and eat too by Abyss' decision. They had to hurry up but… there was also their own safety and health. They cannot do everything they can with an empty stomach after all.

Abyss cooked a delicious sweet using the meat of the cosmic beasts that was left, alongside divine beasts of various shapes she had stored inside her own divine realm, and invited the children to her divine realm, which looked like an abyssal and dark realm. But there was a beautiful manor inside which she and Chaos called their "summer house" where they went to pass some weekends alone.

The kids enjoyed the stew and other preparations, while realizing that these people might not really be normal in any sense, and were mostly like godly beings, living gods, to an extent…

As the party slowly finished their meal and prepared themselves for the trip, not so far away from them, near the giant frog's place where it went to sleep, a magic boat propelled with a strong mana core flashing with divine power rushed across the water, there were three figures standing atop it, and they were not Saphibians.

On of them looked like a skinny stick bug, but in the size of a person, almost being three meters of height. It had brown coloration over its body, and a metallic glint to it. he had two large scythe arms resembling those of mantises but stood up in two legs. It wore a black and red scarf around its long neck and looked at the place where the frog was while squinting its eyes.

The second figure resembled a small woman, she had purple skin and tiny black horns, a cheeky smile surged in her adorable and coquettish face. Her eyes glowed with bright red light, and he size was no more than a meter and 20 centimeters, looking like a midget, almost goblin sized, if not smaller than even goblins. She wore provocative and scandalous latex clothes tight into her mature body. Her long purple hair waved around, as her glowing red jewel in the middle of her forehead emanated a strong aura.

And lastly, the seemingly leader of the trio, a normal-looking human man with brown skin and short gray hair wearing some very normal clothes, such as a leather pant, white shirt, and black boots, led them. He looked in front of him with a calm expression, his emerald eyes shone the brightest, and his aura was all-encompassing.

"We are getting close, Cutthroat. What do we do now?" Said the bug.

"Calm down Mantis, not yet… if we jump into the water too soon, we might get devoured by the frog's powerful absorption." Said the little woman.

"Who are you calling Mantis, shortstack?! My name's Gehekakth!" said the bug.

"Gehe-what? It's so hard to pronounce… And I am not a shortstack! My name is Lucia! Not hard to remember instead of your name, right?" asked the little woman.

"Tch! You…!" muttered the bug.

He and the little woman had some sort of rivalry, but the man leading them wasn't having any of this shit inside his boat.

"Gehekakth, Lucia, calm yourselves down, aren't you Gods? Act like Gods and shut up for once." He sighed.

"Geh… Fine, but when are aw getting there and why don't we just fly?" asked the bug.

"Yeah! We could just fly there and get done with this annoying task." Said the woman.

"You idiots, if we use divine power the frog will notice and will deal with us, we must come here with this tool that hides its own energy presence… So we can have a chance to steal the egg." Said the man.

"Hmph… To think that the Boss would want that egg so much…" sighed the bug.

"Well, it's the egg of a powerful beast, if he gets his hands into it and raise it well…" said the woman.

"It could be a pretty big thing… Owning a Supreme God-level pet would bring him to almost the same level too! Imagine all the authority he could get!" said the bug, nodding.

"Yeah! Imagine…" sighed the woman.
