Chapter 187 - This Is Not Over Yet
-----
"Chaos!"
Abyss jumped over Chaos as she hugged him tightly.
"Abyss… We did it." said Chaos.
"We really did it! We really… did it…"
Abyss beautiful yellow-gold eyes began to cry little tears. She felt the danger in such a battle, it was intense, very intense, with their lives put into the table, they had to go beyond their very limits to overwhelm such a powerful adversary, and it was thanks to everyone's efforts and tactics that it was possible to win.
Incidentally, Erebus who had acted a crucial part in the battle yet had not fought on it also emerged, falling over Chaos head, and hugging him.
"Did I do a good job, papa?"
"Of course you did. Thanks to the Teleportation Traps you settled up everywhere, we were able to easily teleport around and surprise this Demigod… Without them, we could had gotten caught on his deadly attacks." Said Chaos.
"I'm glad I helped!" said Erebus cutely. A mini version of Chaos which had developed a bit now and seemed to not look like a toddler anymore, but as a young boy.
"We did it all together, thanks for buying time for me. Each of his blows, despite me not showing it, hurt tremendously…" sighed Chaos.
Chaos had not been sitting there while his allies battled Crimson, he took some time to attack him back because each of Crimson's attacks was tremendously painful and shattered his soul and broke his body several times. It was already incredibly he only needed his allies to buy him a few seconds to fully heal back once more to confront Crimson through the fight.
"Hahh… Thank Goddess it is done… But there are still four other Demigods left, right?" asked Belphegor.
"Indeed…" said Chaos.
"Fufu, you wouldn't had made it without my Divinity of Illusions!" said Lilith, proclaiming to be the one that brought victory.
"Certainly, it was very useful." Said Chaos.
"Oi! Don't take all the credit!" said Ifrit.
"Huh? Did you even do something?" asked Lilith.
"I helped! I fused my flames with Belphegor so they become phantasmal… otherwise, that god would had been immune to them." Sighed Ifrit. He did helped, but only a tiny bit.
"Hehe, everyone helped on their own accords." Said Yuki.
"I was grilled alive thrice… Master, you better compensate me well…" said Boxxy, as she shapeshifted into the shape of a cute girl and began to caress Chaos chest with a cheeky smile.
"Of course, what do you want?" asked Chaos.
"Hehe… I want a bite off you~" said Boxxy, licking her lips and showing her sharp teeth.
"Sure." Said Chaos, as he offered his entire arm, Boxxy extended her jaws around it in an instant, and devoured it completely.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch… Ahhhh~ So delicious! Thank you, master!"
She indeed and quite literally wanted to eat a part of Chaos…
Abyss felt both relieved and disturbed after seeing this, at the very least she didn't meant it in a romantic or sexual way!
But still, it was quite disturbing.
"We also helped! We were all hiding behind Belphegor boosting his flames, they wouldn't had been so strong without our help… Though I would had wished I could had hit that Demigod in the face, but that might had ended killing me instead…" sighed Dura, she had been made invisible by Lilith's powers similarly to Ifrit.
"Mother and I used our Blood Magic and Divinities to control the blood of the Demigod from afar and stop his pumping from enhancing his physical capabilities, thanks to this, he got tired very quickly…" said Natalia.
She and her mother had used their power in a very unusual yet useful way which the Demigod never realized was inflicting him. They used their power of blood manipulation to make the flow of blood across his body stop, tiring him and causing him exhaustion very quickly, although he didn't die out of it, it was a major factor that caused him to grow weaker quickly.
Natalia's mother was often very silent, she nodded gently at the side of her daughter.
"I thank you for your help too, I also used my Divinity of blood for that, but I could not concentrate as much, your assistance into the specialization of this move made it easier for him to get exhausted." Said Chaos. He recognized everyone's help, each one was a little help that aided him in achieving victory.
But everything was not over yet.
Despite hugging Abyss, Chaos still felt he had yet to do things.
He had only killed one out of five. Perhaps Crimson was the strongest of the batch, but the other four working together might be a pain to deal with.
If possible, he required to also separate them and pick them up, killing them one by one.
But would the Demigods foolishly let him have his way? Would they simply allow him to do so?
Chaos knew they wouldn't stand still stupidly as they seek for Crimson, if they sensed him suddenly disappear and then, perhaps die through their special senses or connection to him then Chaos had no other options than to pursue them and perhaps fight all of them at once.
Perhaps he could abuse the Teleportation Traps once more and separate them, but that would take a great amount of effort.
Nonetheless, it wasn't as if he had no options… And strangely enough, he just noticed he had not gotten any Evolution Prompt. It seems he wasn't able to evolve yet… Could there be something more he required to do?
Deep down he thanked this was the case so he wouldn't have to waste time evolving and could concentrate in the present.
Chaos quickly began to glance at the Gods from very far away using a flying clone coated in illusion magic by Lilith.
After taking away Crimson, the four Gods had been looking for him all around the desert, and ended separating, but through the battle, they came together once more and began to assume that something bad could had happened to him and began to travel around the continent…
Chaos had to strategize what to do now! The threat was not over yet.
