The council had assembled, and everyone quickly began to discuss all sorts of things the moment Chaos started the meeting. He first assessed what had happened from the beginning and asked each person for their version of the story to get the most perspectives possible.
This way, he learned many of the adventures they had, of the people they protected and saved, and even of the enemies they killed such as that one trio of weak gods. Chaos also learned some more about Nesephise, the girl that everyone missed now.
She was a very important being not only for their party but for the entire planet, the voice of the planet of Amphibi spoke to Chaos when they referred to Nesephise, and told him that she was the new "Saint" a special being born in this planet with the ability to communicate with all living beings on it and even ask for their help.
They're legendary figures made by her to save the world, using the Saints as her medium to ask for help to the last Giant Frog, the giant frog that everybody met and that had been the big problem of this entire story so far.
According to the tales that they learned from the Elder of the Saphibian Village, which was living comfortably with the other Saphibians they rescued inside of Erebus Dungeon for the moment, there were Saints over the years, each one did something important by asking help to the Frog.
But Saints were not without powers, it was said that each Saint had a power equivalent to a powerful Goddess when they fully awakened their powers, some had the power to seal things, such as the Saint that sealed the Fragments of the Forbidden One when they were defeated by the frog (as they cannot be virtually killed but only weakened and sealed), the Saint that saved her own son that had been swallowed, and the latest saint that had requested the frog to protect the Saphibian people from her area of the planet…
And now, Nesephise seemed to be the Saint, who was also blessed by a powerful Divine Entity known as Frog Totem, which had the ability to enhance her power, even though she was still as strong as a mortal, thanks to this being protecting her and boosting her powers, she became a strong as a Rank 8 or 9 Demigoddess if not almost a Rank 1 Goddess…
"Nesephise… So she's the one they kidnaped… If she can truly order the frog around, she's dangerous but… She's not doing this willingly…" sighed Chaos. "And seeing how all of you are her friends, I guess we'll have to find a way to rescue her."
Chaos was decided that the friend of his friends was his friend as well, so he decided to save Nesephise and bring her to safety from the malicious claws of Silver and Valen.
However, getting through her would be a very difficult task, especially if they got the giant frog with them, if they truly use her to fight, they will never be able to win.
This is why they must find roundabouts over the entire situation, as many as possible. And for this very reason, Chaos continued to speak more with the rest.
He explained his part of the journey and what he did inside the frog, with the help of Froggo and Dura, who had also joined the meeting, everyone was able to learn more about everything overall.
After that, Chaos went into details about his death… and everyone lose their sanity.
Many of them didn't knew yet, and this hit them hard.
"M-My lord died…?!" asked Natalia. "Impossible! Well… you're here so you didn't technically died."
"Ah… Yeah! You didn't actually died!" said Ifrit.
"But it felt as if I died…" sighed Chaos.
"Chaos-sama… To think that detestable Vampire was so powerful… We have to put a stop to him!" said Aruliel angrily. "But if he could defeat you so easily, I guess nobody here can even stand a chance…"
"Indeed… This is why we must grow stronger, isn't it?" asked Belphegor. "And that's where… the other thing you said comes into place, right, my lord?"
The floating skeleton set in flames seemed quite serious about this situation, he was willing to do anything his lord told him to do as long as he could grow stronger to help him out.
"Yes, there is a way…"
Chaos continued with his narrative, as he told them about the voice of the planet. The people were shocked, thinking that the planet itself had a voice by itself was impressive, and many thought of it as something fantastical despite there being magic and all other weird things already included in this Universe.
Then, he told them about he cosmic energy, the universal seed, and that it was the cause of the change of his soul and divine realm, that his soul was very small, a fraction of what it was, but with this cosmic energy, his soul was once more remade with it and the chaos he had was slowly growing bigger, very slowly at that, but it still did it.
This was the major reason in why his entire body exuded such a cosmic aura combined with a faint chaotic darkness instead of the deep darkness of before.
This wasn't necessarily something bad, and his chaos magic and everything else was still there, but now, his soul was still mostly composed of this cosmic energy which granted him a series of new powers but that could also be exhausted quite quickly compared to chaotic energy, if he exhausted it too much, his soul would slowly begin to reduce in size, weakening him until he could regain more cosmic energy to "fill" his soul size once more, a rather dangerous thing, but that was how his soul was now.
"And based in this, I will give all of you Cosmic Energy, and a Cosmic Core that I can now create on my own… You will use it to grow stronger." Said Chaos.
