Chapter 21 - What A Handsome Lord!
-----
The Tribe of Orcs from the East has surrendered to Chaos!
After having defeated their army, composed mostly of males, the tribe was left defenseless and filled with mostly women, elders, and children.
There were some strong women that cold fight, but they didn't even amount to 30, and Chaos could easily kill them with a mere breath.
Dura, who was considered intelligent by Chaos, quickly surrendered to his might.
Chaos recognized their survival instincts and seemed to have grown a bit of admiration over the Orcs.
Having slaughtered all the males, he felt the necessity to take over them and make them his servants. The children crying inside the tribe didn't particularly bother him, but he imagined that if he helped them, these children might grow into healthy adults that could serve him as well.
He didn't pity any of them but recognized them.
Or perhaps… within his twisted soul and his grotesque mind, was there some pity?
Perhaps…
Chaos had become even more inhuman now, yet, deep down, he was trying to find some kind of emotion, something that lingered within.
Although he was born as a killing machine… was there anything else than endless slaughter?
There clearly was more, but it was up to him to discover his own emotions and develop them more.
Belphegor and Abyss had grown to be rather close to him in these hours, and he planned to develop more of his emotions with them.
Chaos postponed the adventure into the dungeon for the moment and decided to move the entire Orc tribe into his own territory, bring forth a caravan of Green Skins behind him, as he watched over the beasts that emerged in the night.
Through the travel back to the castle, a gigantic worm-like creature known as a Nether Abyss Worm, an SS-Rank beast, had attacked the caravan.
However, Chaos easily took care of it by falling over it and tearing it apart with his bare claws.
Through the journey, he enjoyed the flesh of the beast, which was way more nutritious and contained way more energy and power than the Orcs.
[You learned the following Skills!]
[Tunneler]: Grants the ability to easily dig through any type of rock, earth, and ore, leaving a tunnel behind.
[Nether Worm's Razor-Sharp Teeth]: Grants the ability to create razor-sharp teeth that spiral around like a deadly chainsaw, dealing damage based on the user's Strength.
Ding!
[Blood Core Rank: [Level IV: Draconic Vampire (Upper Stage)] has increased to [Peak Stage]!]
[Dragon Heart Rank: [Level IV: Adult Blood Dragon (Upper Stage)] has increased to [Peak Stage]!]
[Existence Realm: [Pseudo Demi-Deity: 1/9 (Middle Stage)] has increased to 2/9!]
[All your stats have increased!]
It seemed that Chaos had gained some more power, but this wasn't probably by the tasty and gigantic worm alone, but he had also eaten those weakened and sealed demons beforehand, which probably also helped on the cultivation of his blood core and dragon heart.
Ding!
[You can now evolve!]
"Evolve?" wondered Chaos, as he glanced at the system window, after reaching Peak Stage in everything, he was now able to evolve!
Chaos decided to leave this for later, as he led his new servants into the castle.
After reaching the castle, Chaos slowly began to make a loyalty contract with every Orc, even the young children.
These Loyalty Contracts were made through his unique Chaos Magic. By creating chains made of miasma inside the souls of the Orcs and connecting them to him, Chaos would now be able to know whenever any of these Orcs harbored any motive that wanted to give him or anyone close to him any harm, in any way shape or form.
"Lord Chaos is truly a benevolent man," said Abyss, praising Chaos's benevolence.
"Benevolent? Well, perhaps?" wondered Chaos.
After today's activities, the Orcs were introduced to the castle by the other members, who seemed rather intimidating due to their powerful presence.
As Chaos took his humanoid form, many of the Orcs were surprised, especially the women, who admired his beauty.
Dura in specific was rather shocked, everyone thought he was simply a giant dragon.
Chaos wondered why they were looking at him like this, perhaps their devotion grew bigger the more they looked at his humanoid form?
Dura swallowed saliva as she decided to speak with Chaos.
"Lord Chaos, w-we thought you were a dragon…" she said.
"Well? I am," said Chaos.
"We have never seen one capable of transforming! And in such… a beautiful man," said Dura.
Chaos felt flattered and rather embarrassed, but his expressionless face couldn't show any of his emotions.
"Is that so? Well, I am glad you think that of me, I hope we can work together from now on," he said politely, patting Dura's muscular shoulders with a charming mild smile, albeit it was forced as he was not able to smile naturally, his entire face was as stiff as a corpse.
Dura almost skipped a beat, it seemed that Chaos was unaware that he possessed some kind of powerful charming aura that high-ranked Vampires possessed, which usually made any opposite sex member fall for them as long as they had feeble minds… and as the Orcs were all stupid, it was very easy for all the women to fall for him.
"Y-Yes, of course!" said Dura. Who had quickly forgotten about her husband…
Chaos felt happy that the Orcs were willing to cooperate, perhaps there was a bright future ahead…
However, he quickly remembered that the entire galaxy might want to kill him, so perhaps the future wasn't as bright.
Abyss glanced with a death stare at the women that admired Chaos gentlemanly behavior and cute oblivious nature.
"Grrr… What are you glaring at?" she asked.
"A-Ah! N-Nothing!" The female Orcs quickly knelled before Abyss, who they also saw as a figure of high authority.
After things were done for, Chaos decided to walk towards his room, his father's former bed, which he never used after turning into an Undead, so it was all dusty…
Well, it was, as Abyss had decided to wash it by using her clones.
Indeed, Abyss was able to separate pieces and mass from her body and control them with her souls like slime puppets or clones, she was limited to how many she was able to make, but she made around five and spread them around the entire castle, using them to wash clothes, clean the castle, and more.
So while they were outside, Abyss had already washed and cleaned the bedclothes, so it was very soft and comfortable for Chaos.
However, Abyss Clones were technically her as they shared her soul, and one of them was resting right at his side hugging him.
"Abyss, thank you for what you did, but could it be possible to give me some time alone?" he asked.
"Ah! Y-Yes, my lord, I am sorry," she said, as she quickly jumped out of bed and walked outside of the room, closing the door.
Chaos sighed in relief, as he finally had some time alone.
He quickly watched at his Status as he decided to evolve.
Ding!
[Evolution Options]
[Vampire Dragon Chimera]
[Blood Dragon]
Chaos was surprised, two evolutions emerged!
His current race was Lesser Vampire Dragon Chimera.
So the obvious update was the one without the Lesser on it.
And well… there was also the mysterious Blood Dragon!
What will Chaos choose?
