Chapter 351 – Reencounter
—–
Chaos had heard the last words of the World\'s Voice before she went to take a small nap, or so he presumed. He quickly decided to walk outside the dungeon room he was and go met his other friends, but he was suddenly greeted by someone else when the door opened by itself, someone entered in here carrying a plate with prepared food.
"Even if you\'re a sleeping meatball, you still need to eat, Chaos-sama- Ah?!"
It was Abyss! She had appeared right in front of Chaos as he had just put on his clothes, as he had regained all his former appearance, Abyss was left speechless.
She had already come here before when he was unconscious, seeing him as a meatball with tentacles didn\'t really bothered her, she herself could take many bizarre shapes, so the two were not so different, but she was still worried because he was in a very weakened state.
Nonetheless, she had grown restless and stayed with him for a good while, until she decided that maybe the scent of food would wake him up, and moved to the kitchen to make food.
Abyss current mental state could be said to be… slowly recovering. She wasn\'t in the best of states, but she was slowly getting better at it. however, the sadness she had over what had happened, and everything else was still there.
Although the wounded had recovered a bit and were now all sleeping and recovering, it was still a terrible thing what had happened, and many of her beloved friends were in the verge of dying this time around…
Things had suddenly turned not so easy anymore, and it felt as if the world itself had slapped them in the face, making them realize they were in fact quite weak at the end of the day.
Nonetheless, she was growing more and more worried about Chaos, she was trying to calm down, to think about what he had said in the dreams, but now she found him weakened and in the verge of death himself.
It appears that he had lost the battle against those guys, and perhaps against someone else even stronger than them, and might had been in the verge of death just as she went through and also her other friends.
It was quite excruciating to think about her lover going through such hardships, after all the power he had showed before. It wasn\'t that she felt disappointed on him, and it wasn\'t as if she only loved him for being powerful or something… it was just that it pained her to see him working so hard and being so wounded for them…
She wanted to continue growing stronger, if possible, somehow… but things in this world were still quite limited, there wasn\'t much she could do other than… constantly practice abilities and try to find out how to use them more correctly.
But just as she was bubbling with all these thoughts, Chaos had showed up in front of her as she entered the room, the meatball he was before was completely gone.
Abyss looked at Chaos, as her golden eyes began to cry big tears of sorrowful happiness.
"C-Chaos!!!" she said.
"Abyss…" said Chaos.
Abyss quickly dropped the plate with food, as Chaos caught it with his Psychokinesis and gently placed it over a small table, right before Abyss jumped over him and hugged him.
"Chaos, I was so worried about you! You came back as a meatball, and I didn\'t knew what might had happened to you now!" she cried.
"I am sorry, Abyss… I am sorry for being so weak…" he said.
"Eh? Weak?" she asked.
"I lost… I… I died." He said.
"You died?!" asked Abyss.
"It is complicated… but I slowly reformed from the bits left behind by my own self, but even then, I practically died against that men, Valen… He was a being above even Gods…" sighed Chaos.
His eyes showed a clear anger and frustration on his eyes, he had fought against someone that had an overwhelming power and that had probably trained his entire life as a Vampire, with a wondrous power over Blood so big it could even overpower all the elements he could wield, even Chaos-attribute or Demise Essence itself.
Against such a powerful foe, it felt like everything was hopeless.
"Chaos… I am sorry as well for being weak… If I were stronger… I could had stayed at your side and fought with you…" she sighed.
"You\'ve fought more than enough…" said Chaos.
"I am… I am just ashamed on myself… Nesephise is now gone… the giant frog is being blackmailed… and perhaps that Valen now has the power to control such a powerful beast…" sighed Abyss.
"Hmm… I see. Well, we can think about how to solve these problems together, Abyss. Don\'t worry about it…" said Chaos.
"But…" she cried.
Chaos smiled gently at Abyss, as he cleansed her tears and hugged her tightly.
"I missed you…"
"Ah…"
He looked into her eyes.
"Don\'t worry… We\'ll get through things together… I have… found an unexpected supporter, and I have regained part of my power… Now, we have to simply advance one step at a time, we can do it if we go together." He said.
"Chaos… Okay… I trust you more than anyone…" said Abyss.
The two held hands for a moment, as they hugged again once more.
Abyss began to rub her face over Chaos shoulders, as she cried out of happiness of being able to hug him for a longer time now, unlike the fleeting moment she spent with him when he arrived in that fight.
"I want to hug you forever…" she said.
"I also want to hug you forever… Let\'s stay like this for some time…" he said.
The two continued to hug lovingly, as they felt each other\'s auras and warmth, and felt comfortable and happy.
Chaos had a hard time describing his emotions yet, but whenever he was with Abyss like this, he couldn\'t help but feel a lot of happiness, fulfillment, and also a strong sense of duty, as if he had to protect her at all costs…
