Chapter 36: Increasing Cultivation Ranks

-----

After taking a relaxing bath, Chaos let Abyss in as he enjoyed her breakfast, although what she brought wouldn't be enough to satisfy his near bottomless stomach.

Abyss glanced at Chaos shyly through most of his meal, and Chaos couldn't help but feel internally embarrassed as he knew why she was acting like this…

"Abyss please don't enter my room without knocking…" sighed Chaos.

"I-I will! S-Sorry, master… Please, punish me!" said Abyss, kneeling before Chaos.

"There's no need for punishment. As long as you understand, it is good enough. Anyways, let's get out of the castle, I want to eat the dragon," said Chaos. The dragon steaks he ate were from the wyrms which were hunted by Abyss and Belphegor.

"Sure thing!"

Abyss was an obedient and very serviceable girl, most likely due to her twisted obsession with Chaos, being her summon which enhanced her affection and loyalty towards him, and well, because she liked him. Due to this, she obeyed anything he asked her.

On the way out, Chaos met with Belphegor and even Dura, who rushed to greet him, which made Chaos remember that he wanted to use Miasma on the Orcs to evolve them,

"My lord, you look as malicious and gloomy as ever!" said Belphegor, praising Chaos.

"Erm… Thanks?" asked Chaos rather confused.

"Master Chaos, why is SHE with us?" asked Abyss, pointing with a black tentacle at the beautiful and muscular green-skinned Orc woman walking at the left side of Chaos.

"Master Chaos said that it was fine to accompany him," said Dura with a light smirk, unfazed by Abyss power.

"I-Is that so?" asked Abyss, glaring at Chaos as she entangled his right arm with her slime.

"Abyss, what's wrong with that? She's a servant, I don't see why she wouldn't be at my side if she so desires," said Chaos.

"Oh…! Yeah! Right!" said Abyss, comprehending that Chaos didn't saw Dura romantically… although sooner or later she should stop having this attitude, as Chaos might be destined to be around many servants, and some of them might end up being females too. If she were to be jealous of every single female, things would get annoying, and she shouldn't make things annoying for her lord, the one she wanted to make happy the most.

However, deep down, she still had this little and obsession with Chaos, which might never go away, to begin with, but that she will have to work around to not become disruptive with his life.

At the very least, despite her clumsy behavior, Abyss began to understand things rather quickly, so she would try to not annoy her master in her own selfish desires.

Dura smiled a bit as she felt more attracted to Chaos by being a direct man, she didn't like stuttering wimpy men, she liked direct and domineering ones, and Chaos seemed to have a great grasp over all his servants, a true leader, and one that made her excited to serve.

Because he had slain her husband, it most likely meant he was a way better man, perhaps…

Or so was the mentality of the not-so-bright Orcs. Even as the most intelligent member of her tribe, she still wasn't the brightest, and most of her thought processes still based themselves on Orc's beliefs.

She wasn't cunning or anything, and merely wanted to show Chaos that she was a loyal and strong woman that he could grow interested in if he wanted, perhaps she was just betting it all to luck, but she would certainly be rather glad if he were to grow attracted to her romantically or sexually.

"(A strong child would surely be born with the seed of such a man)" she thought.

Unaware of the intentions of the perverted Orc woman, Chaos innocently awaited to devour his prey.

After getting out of the castle, he took out the gigantic corpse from his inventory, which would have surely destroyed the castle interior if he had thrown it out casually.

Dura was shocked after seeing the corpse, feeling fascinated with her lord's almighty strength!

"A-Amazing, my lord, such powerful prey! Your strength is so mighty!" she said, praising Chaos's strength above all, as Orcs valued it more than anything.

"It was a hard fight, but at the end, I managed to pull out a victory," said Chaos, as he smiled a bit, making Dura and Abyss skip a beat due to his gallant and natural attitude, although he never intended sounding charming or something, but due to his Charming as a Vampire, anything he said would often come out as "charming" to some extent.

Chaos quickly began to devour the dragon as he shapeshifted into a dragon himself, the meat of the blazing fire dragon was spectacular, tasting like grilled meat or smoked meat, but it was also juicy and filled with flavor, the blood was also sweet and almost addictive to Chaos throat, as he drank several liters.

He feasted on its crunchy and delicious bones, the inner guts as well, the strong and juicy heart, the skull, the brain, the eyes, the horns, the fangs, the tongue, the tail, the scales, and more.

In the end, Chaos completely ate the entire dragon, he didn't even leave a single claw left!

The moment he devoured everything, he felt his Blood Core and Dragon Heart flashing with power, infusing it into his entire body and soul, and enhancing his Existence Realm.

Ding!

[Your [Blood Core Rank] has reached [Level V: Dragon Vampire (Peak Stage)]!]

[Your [Dragon Heart Rank] has reached [Level V: Developing Adult Blood Dragon (Peak Stage)]!]

[Your [Existence Realm] has reached [Pseudo Demi-Deity: 2/9 (Peak Stage)]!]

[All your stats have increased]

[You can now evolve]

"Oh?"

Chaos quickly realized something marvelous, he could evolve once more!

So soon?!

Isn't this way too fast?!

Why is he growing so fast despite being so strong from the beginning? Perhaps the essence within the corpse of the Blazing Fire Dragon was amazing, but… still…

Well, Chaos didn't really pay any mind to it, and assumed that it might be because of All-Consumption being overpowered in the sense that he could assimilate all the essence of what he ate, while the curse he had also enhanced his cultivation speed for some reason…

And alongside this, Chaos felt a rush of new power as he gained a couple of new Skills.
