After the little trip with Abyss, Chaos returned to his Kingdom and castle with her, and decided to evolve now.
Abyss understood and quickly left him on his own, this evolution might be the most important now, as he would be able to evolve after having jumped several Ranks by devouring this mysterious fragment.
There was something, however, that was bothering him after he devoured the fragment and made it his own body… And that was how strange it felt for him… to feel something deep within the galaxy.
"This… it is bothering me…"
Chaos began to concentrate into this strange feeling, until he realized what it was."Impossible… So this was it?"
Indeed, he concentrated into this itching feeling he had since he ate the fragment and realized that such a feeling sent his consciousness across the galaxy and showed him a certain spot above a desolate planet.
In there, an abyssal dark presence began to surge from…
"I can see where other fragments are located… Interesting."
Indeed, Chaos realized this now that he was alone and could concentrate his power into it… He found out he was sensing dozens of small spots of darkness across the galaxy…
These were the fragments of the Forbidden One!
If he could collect them all, he could attain an even greater amount of power.Perhaps this could be the ideal shortcut to acquire enough power to fight against the Supreme Entity of Brightness, avenge his parents, and also recover them from her malicious hands.
"There are… four more in this planet… In the other continents, I can feel them…" Chaos realized that there were actually four other fragments in this very planet, spread very separately from the other… Collecting them might become his goal to a quicker way to reach enough power necessary to accomplish his goals!
He felt motivated now, although Abyss motivated him a lot with her love, this also enhanced his motivation.
Chaos had decided it.
"I will collect these fragments and devour them… It seems I might be the only one that can do this, as the consciousness within the Forbidden One was in disbelief when he realized I was able to devour him… Sadly, I cannot inspect his memories in detail, he destroyed a large part of his own memories when I devoured his mind… Maybe as a way to not let me know where his other fragments are?" wondered Chaos. However, his attempt was useless at the end! Chaos had already begun to sense where each fragment was…
After being done with this, he decided to check his available evolution options at long last…
…
[Evolution Options]
[Abyssal Eldritch Void Vampire Dragon]
[Dark Malefic Trickster Vampire Dragon]
[Nightmare-Dwelling Shadow Vampire Dragon]
…
There were only three choices, but all three sound rather interesting and at the same time, scary!
However, Chaos had no such concepts as "scary-sounding" things, so he looked at this and found it interesting.
"Let's see…"
…
[Abyssal Eldritch Void Vampire Dragon]
A unique evolution granted to a Vampire Dragon who dwells with the abyssal darkness within the outer void. Such entities that one cannot properly comprehend slowly meld with the body of the user transforming him into something utterly abyssal.
These types of maleficent Abyssal Eldritch Void Dragons roam the Universe in search for large concentrations of void and darkness to devour. They don't stop looking until their very existences are fully satiated, which is a never-ending all-devouring search.
Their appearances warp as they devour the void and large masses of asteroids, or even planets… turning into monstrous chimeric creatures that don't really resemble dragons anymore.
…
Huh, this one made Chaos wonder if he was going to become like this after devouring the Forbidden One's fragment. It was quite possible, and this evolution didn't seem all that bad, in fact, it was rather tentative.
"It doesn't say anything about new powers, but eating Void is surely a new power." Thought Chaos.
…
[Dark Malefic Trickster Vampire Dragon]
A malefic dragon that roams planets tricking innocent people into doing malicious and sinful acts. They trick others using powerful illusions created through their dark magic, and can manipulate others into doing their bidding, or entrap enemies or prey into elaborate illusions for them to never walk out unscathed.
These dragons are malicious by nature and tend to prioritize their malicious acts at all costs. Their power grows as they develop this malice, which they absorb as negative energy and then convert into essence to cultivate their dragon hearts. These dragons delight themselves in seeing others suffering, especially completely innocent beings who don't deserve this treatment…
…
One could say this evolution was quite edgy. Delighting himself by torturing other people… that wasn't how Chaos thought about at all. He was more concentrated into growing stronger and exploring and discovering the mysteries of the world.
If this evolution would force a certain type of mindset into his body, he didn't wanted it then…
…
[Nightmare-Dwelling Shadow Vampire Dragon]
A monstrous dragon that dwells within nightmares and crosses the outer space through them. It travels directly into places where complex life forms live thanks to sensing their dreams and nightmares.
By dwelling inside of them and devouring them, they're capable of eating the souls of these living beings and strengthen themselves. They are unknown by most people, and often leave no type of evidence to reveal that it was them the culprits behind the death of a particular person or various.
Their ability to meddle with shadows is absolute superb as well, making them efficient night-hunters. They delight themselves into eating dreams and nightmares, which strengthen their cultivation.
If they devour enough, they learn the ability to create their own dreams and nightmares…
…
This was indeed the strangest of the batch, a nightmare-eating dragon did sound amazing at first hand for Chaos, and he considered its capabilities as something completely new that he could do now… a new ability was what he wanted to get the most out of these evolutions after all…
Chaos looked at the options for a big while, until he decided his choice.
