Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

Chapter 354 – You’ve Grown A Bit

—–

Deciding what to do next for Abyss, making her a new weapon like Achlys but that wouldn't get lost nor break so easily as before, Chaos now had a new motivation aside from the many others he had. He was going to make Abyss an amazing new weapon!

And anyways, he was hungry, so he decided to dig into what she had prepared for him, which was a delicious stew with rice, a lot of potatoes and meat, and there was also a cup of wine to accompany it.

"I am sorry if this is not enough… But most of our kitchen with ingredients are inside your divine realm," she sighed.

"I know, don't worry. This stew is already very tasty." Said Chaos.

"I am glad." Said Abyss.

Suddenly, as the two were having a time together, more people finally showed up, Belphegor, Lilith, and Erebus were the ones that arrived as everyone else was still resting from their wounds.

"Ah, Chaos-sama, you're awake!!!" said Belphegor, the enormous blazing skull reached up to Chaos and extended his flames into gigantic claws, hugging his master.

"Belphegor, I am happy to see you again." Said Chaos.

"Me too, my lord! You're fine! You're back to your usual self- Eh? Your body… The energy you're exuding! And that eye… What is going on? you've changed out of nowhere!" he said.

"I have changed a little bit, yes, but that's for the best, I've found some new power within me… It is a long story, but let's say the world itself, this planet, is helping me now…" said Chaos.

"I-It is?!" asked Belphegor, Erebus, and Lilith at the same time.

"Yeah! Chaos-sama told me already! The planet of Amphibi is a person of its own, it has a mind, a voice, and powers! She helped him reawaken his powers after… what happened against Valen…" said Abyss.

"Valen! That Accursed Vampire behind this entire thing, isn't he? We learned about him when we investigated about what happened… So he did all of this?" asked Lilith.

"Wait, papa, you lost?" asked Erebus.

"Yes… He… He defeated me. I thought I died but… I was able to survive through the small bits of me left, which regrouped themselves together into the meatball you saw earlier." Said Chaos.

As those words were dropped from Chaos mouth, his three servants made sorrowful faces, they suddenly realized a big truth, despite how powerful he was, Chaos could also lose, and he ended sacrificing his life for them to be able to escape from that monstrous Vampire.

They realized how weak they were themselves long ago, but now, they realized that even Chaos wasn't an exception, he wasn't someone unbeatable, he might be strong and reliable, but not someone invincible, he couldn't simply resolve all their problems.

Each member of the crew had to grow strong enough to make up for their weight, so Chaos doesn't have to risk his life so much to help them survive… at the end, if it wasn't for his appearance at the last moment, they might had died.

Even more, what if Valen had showed up while Chaos wasn't there? Without Chaos to distract such a monstrously strong being, all of them, every person there would had gotten killed.

It was something rather disheartening to think about, but it was the truth of what had happened, and they couldn't keep running away from the truth of what had truly happened.

They had to face it and find a way out of it together now, as a team, and not just as Chaos with his servants, but as a group, with Chaos as a leader, not a boss.

He had to guide them and lead them to grow stronger themselves, because he knew that even if he could divide himself and be with everyone else at the same time, he was certainly incapable of being at full power with everyone if the situations change at unpredictable turns.

The Universe was indeed a very dangerous place.

It was a very beautiful place, an ever-expanding paradise where life was in every corner, every planet might harbor some sort of life, and even the outer space had living beings of enormous sizes wandering around… but it was also a place of endless dangers.

"I am sorry for having lost… I disappointed you all, right? A leader shouldn't show such weaknesses…" sighed Chaos.

"No, my lord, we are sorry… We are not strong enough to keep up with you… We are not even strong enough to survive on our own…" sighed Belphegor.

"We are very sorry…" said Lilith.

"We were apart from Abyss group, instead of acting together, we all ended chasing you and ignoring Abyss and the rest…" sighed Erebus.

"No, you guys… don't apologize for something like that! It is fine, I know that you were chasing him… I was… I did what I did because I was reckless… Nesephise… She's my friend… Someone that I care for and… seeing her suffer so much… And after I saw that man killing those innocent slaves, he had inside his divine realm… It really broke my heart." Cried Abyss.

Chaos then realized that Abyss had indeed changed, she was heartbroken for the death of other people who were given injustice, but it was completely unrelated people to them yet… she had grow so much that she now had a very strong feeling of empathy with others, and she had grown as a person.

In the past she often wondered why Chaos was so dead-set in helping innocents, and more… but now, she had already become similar to him without realizing it.

"So that's what you think, huh, Abyss? You've really changed… You have grown as a person, without you realizing it." said Chaos.

"Eh? Me? Why?" she asked.

Chaos smiled back at her gently.

"No, nothing… So you want to save these people? You want to bring them justice that this world, this universe doesn't bring to them? Is that what you truly want, Abyss?" asked Chaos.

"I…" Abyss looked down, as she began to think.
