Chapter 338 – Dura & Froggo
—–
While traveling back to Abyss and into the south pole, Chaos suddenly went elsewhere.
His own mind seemed to have changed as he died and then… pretty much revived.
And now that he merged with Achlys and ranked up, suddenly, strange powers had begun to awaken.
A part of his mind felt suddenly dragged into what's called a dreamscape.
Dreams are what makes dreamscapes. But what are dreamscapes? In this Universe, magic is real, and one element of magic are Dreams, anything a person dreams becomes a Dream Cloud, and when this dream is particularly strong and intense, it might end up forming a dreamscape, a more established space within space made out of Dream Essence.
In such spaces, dreams also happen but tend to be stuck within space in such a place, and dreamscapes will only disappear if the one creating them wakes up or… is killed.
Chaos felt dragged into this dreamscape out of nowhere through the power she was suddenly developing. He didn't knew why he was developing dream-related powers… but when he arrived in this dreamscape, he found Abyss.
She was desperately crying, while being tormented by shadows. As he tried to help her, another light was also helping her vanquish the darkness.
He felt surprised by this light, but ultimately decided to let it be, as it seemed friendly, whatever this little thing could truly be…
He saw Abyss drowning in this darkness, although this light was helping her a bit, she needed a bit more help than that.
He moved near her, and realized he had become a mass of red light, but through effort, a phantom of his usual humanoid appearance showed up…
"Chaos…?"
"Abyss…"
Chaos comforted Abyss in such a moment, and spoke to her, comforting her with every word he could muster. He knew that they were far away and that he was moving right there so there wasn't really any necessity to be so worried, but he just couldn't stand his beloved Abyss being like this.
After comforting her, she smiled at her back, and cleansed her tears. Chaos managed to cheer her up, as he realized that she was developing a strong inferiority complex… he had to guide her before bad things were to happen to their relationship.
He really didn't wanted to lose her love, and if she thought that simply being always saved wasn't right, he was willing to help her grow stronger so she could fight on her own whenever he couldn't be with her.
Chaos simply wanted the best for her, that's all.
He wasn't really experienced with romantic relationships, nor he knew what a girl would always want either, but he knew that Abyss was the most precious treasure of his life.
Chaos felt guilt for not having been at her side when she went through those hardships, but perhaps, even if it was quite terrible, she might have grown from that experience, and learned more about her own strength.
After all, you can't really improve if you never know your limits.
And it wasn't as if Chaos was all powerful either, he was defeated quite badly, and got literally killed… he couldn't help but relate to her now more than ever.
"I will coming soon, so wait for me…" said Chaos.
"Okay… I will." Said Abyss with a smile.
Chaos slowly faded away from the dream, as the tiny light flew towards Abyss chest, and Abyss woke up at the same time…
After helping her out, Chaos quickly decided to pull back before his soul were to be dragged into dreams.
Gaining consciousness, he suddenly detected the presence of two life forms near him.
He quickly jumped out of the water and looked around him, suddenly, he found a bubble made of psionic energy reaching up to him, being moved around by two figures indie across the sea.
It was a frog-headed kid and a sexy red-skinned and muscular Oni woman…
Wait… aren't those…?
"Froggo and Dura! I was wondering where they were this entire time but I couldn't find them…" thought Chaos.
He quickly swam towards them, as the pair was suddenly scared out of their lives when they saw a mass of flesh with tentacles, many eyes, and jaws spread over its amorphous and spherical body reach them in an instant!
"Froggo! Dura!" it said.
"Uwaah! W-What is that thing?!" asked Froggo.
"T-That's… Chaos-sama?" asked Dura.
"You can recognize me… It is currently hard to get back to my original form for now… I need to recover more biomass for that… I… I was defeated at the end, but I managed to save everyone, and they're safe in the south pole." Said Chaos.
"Oh, what a relief… But Chaos-sama, you lost…?! That's… how?!" asked Dura.
"I am not… invincible… Valen, that Vampire… he was strong. Toot strong for me to handle him…" said Chaos.
"Chaos… is that really you? Why did you become a meatball?" asked Froggo.
"I will explain it later, come with us now." Said Chaos, he quickly lifted the entire bubble and carried the two with him.
FLAAASH!
Swimming through the water, Dura and Froggo quickly told Chaos about what had happened to them and the summons that Chaos had asked to protect them.
"That giant octopus was good all along! She even healed my soul… and even protected us to the very end… Even when… she died so miserably…" sighed Dura.
"Yeah… Poor octopus… Sniff… T-This is not fair… I wish… I wish I could be stronger…" cried Froggo.
"I'll never forget her valiant heart…" cried Dura.
"Oh, her… she and the other two are my Summons, even if they die, I can summon them again." Said Chaos.
"You can do that?!" asked the two.
Chaos ended killing all the drama there was!
"Yes, nonetheless, dying and sacrificing herself is painful and a commendable effort, all of that was so she could protect you and also buy time for the rest… I will summon them again later, especially her, I promised to give her a true name." said Chaos.
"Chaos-sama, you're so benevolent…" said Dura.
"Ah… I guess I am glad they're not dead… though they clearly died, so where are they then?" asked Froggo.
"I don't know." Said Chaos.
"Ah…" sighed Froggo.
Not even Chaos knew the mechanics of his own powers.
