Chapter 148: A Sudden Increase In Power!

-----

Chaos discovered the interesting new ability he acquired, these eyes were way different than his own, and in a way, his old eyes were upgraded into these resilient ones.

It seems that by consuming the body parts of this ancient being he could assimilate them and make them become his body parts instead, a rather bizarre thing to think about.

If he were to fuse with even more fragments, would the old Chaos disappear and a new one emerge? Perhaps he would turn into the Forbidden One instead?!

Well, it was unlikely that such a thing was to happen, he was able to devour the mind of such a being fairly easy. There was no way that he wouldn't be able to do the same with the other fragments.

Chaos felt the new power surge through his body, however… this power was clearly above his own already, he had Ranked Up to Rank 8! Only one Rank off becoming a Demigod…

And of course, he had just gotten a system notification alerting him of the possibility of evolving. Whatever is suggested, it will surely be something strong enough to make up for the two Ranks he increased…

But for now, Abyss was already bringing him several meals, the two had arranged a small lunch only the two of them inside of Chaos room, so she was now ready. Chaos would had wanted to help her, but he took more than he thought eating all these things.

"There you go, these noodles are specially delicious with the blood tomato sauce! The minced meat of fire dragons is always good with it." Said Abyss, as she served Chaos a large plate of pasta with red sauce over it and even some sprinkled parmesan cheese.

They had gotten a lot of new ingredients in the city that they conquered, although Chaos had made cheese beforehand, and this one was the one produced on his Kingdom, it was especially strong in flavor due to it being made of milk from cow-like monsters instead of just the common cow, an animal spread across a large area of the galaxy as a cattle creature by humans.

There were also other things such as meatloaf, burgers, croquets, fried shrimp, and all… they didn't had any digestion problems so mixing food like this had no problem for them.

They quickly began to dig in without any delay.

"This is delicious…" said Chaos, smiling cutely.

Abyss felt embarrassed and praised at the same time, she nodded adorably at Chaos praise.

"Thank you, I put some extra effort into it!" she said.

As chaos got into the meatloaf, he found a very tasty mildly citric, smoky, and sweet black sauce over the meatloaf.

"What is this sauce? I haven't tasted it before." Said Chaos.

"Oh, that's sauce made… It is my secret recipe!" said Abyss.

"Is that so?" wondered Chaos, as he continued eating.

However, Abyss hid a secret! This sauce was made out of her own slime!

An instinct had emerged within her Shoggoth nature. Apparently Shoggoth give their own body to their lovers and let them taste their slime as a way to charm them and intensify love.

This effect is not permanent, however, and Chaos is immune to the effect, but Abyss still felt the necessity of being eaten by her lover, even if a little bit!

It was quite wicked to think about it, but she was a mass of black sludge-like slime, so giving a bit of her body to make a sauce wasn't actually as horrid as a woman cutting herself to give her own flesh to a man. This was less gore in that regard!

"So, what do you have in mind now that we are done with the pirates, my lord?" asked Abyss curiously.

"I plan to move on into new projects, such as exploring the continents of the planet. I don't really want to conquer the planet or something, but looking for high level dungeons and new beasts to devour is my priority." Said Chaos.

"Oh, I see! Then I am excited to go with you, my lord! I can't wait to explore the world at your side and see by myself what we can find around too! It will be very fun to explore around…" said Abyss cutely.

"Indeed, with you and everyone else, traveling anywhere is always fun. I just feel like staying more in the island will limit my growth, so I want to move on. With the teleportation traps and jewels we can still come back here whenever we need to take a quicky break and then resume our travels where we left everything." Said Chaos.

"Yeah! It will be so fun! Ah, I wish I could learn Teleportation to be more useful… But my Spatial Magic is still developing, Teleportation is a very high level Spell." Sighed Abyss.

Chaos petted her head as she blushed a bit.

"Don't worry, you're already the second strongest to me, don't push yourself too hard." Said Chaos.

"M-My lord…"

Chaos held her hand tightly over the table.

"It was a very good lunch, thank you for putting your time to cook this for me. I actually wanted to help but I ended taking longer than I thought eating the snacks." Said Chaos.

"Fufu, don't worry, a little kiss will make up for it." Said Abyss.

"Oh…"

Chaos kissed Abyss lovingly over the table, their hands holding tightly.

"Is it enough?" he asked.

"Yes, it is more than enough…" said Abyss.

"Now let's go wash the dishes together." Said Chaos.

"O-Oh, sure!"

Abyss and Chaos went to wash the dishes together, as they continued talking about the future plans.

"The expansion of the Kingdom will continue until we have a few more outposts around the island. I wouldn't want any other invaders getting their way into our territory, especially when I am not here. There will be a project going on made by my clones while I am absent which will hopefully give the entire island a chaos barrier." Said Chaos.

"Oh wow… but isn't that very costly in mana?" asked Abyss.

"Indeed, but we'll manage…"
