Chapter 459 – The Dragons
—–
Several Fragments of the Forbidden One were promptly absorbed by Chaos, it seemed that the Mindflayers were holding into these fragments as treasures. From what he learned based on the Elder Brain\'s mind and memories, this entity desired to fuse with these fragments and attain a powerful body, but it seemed that he had attempted many times and failed miserably, as each time he tried, the fragments would attempt to parasitize him, and even his powerful brainwashing powers didn\'t worked in these fragments… at the end, they were stored over many years, simply staying sealed inside their artifacts until Chaos found them… and devoured them.
"Hm… Not so bad." Chaos said, looking into the many system messages, he had devoured five fragments, the [Forbidden One\'s Auxiliary Brain], [Spine Bones], [Bone Marrow], [Fiber Muscle Tissue], and [Skull]. They were certainly a lot of bones, which he would use to improve the equipment of everybody.
He was already within his divine realm, and after having devoured the fragments, he felt slightly strong, but his Rank didn\'t went up either, it seems that the power of the fragments wouldn\'t do much for him anymore now that he reached such a high Rank as Rank 5 of the Great God Realm, unless he consumed dozens… His powers allowed him to sense these fragments across the Star System, and there were certainly a lot of them spread around here for him to take, but for now he had to remain within his divine realm to assess and prepare for everything.
However, these bone pieces that the fragments had would certainly give him a great boost to his physical and defensive power. His bones wont be as frail anymore and they\'ll regenerate at an insane rate now. He wished he could give a big new skull to Belphegor, but he seemed rather happy as a Blazing Living Armor, so he left him be. Apparently Belphegor learned the ability to absorb metallic materials to upgrade his metallic body, so he had been doing this since he was revived by Rot.
It has been a few days inside his Divine Realm by now, and he seemed to be mostly ready, as Abyss quickly told him that there was a big group of Gods approaching the area where he was awaiting them, and where he had set up everything with the help of Abyss space manipulation powers.
"Chaos, they\'re coming…" Said Abyss.
"Very well… Let\'s begin." Said Chaos, as he seemed as expressionless as ever, although Abyss clearly noticed a faint smile within his lips, which made him look rather domineering.
…
Glacial, the Great Dragon God of Winter Frost flew across the outer space, already having entered the Scrap Zone where the trails left behind by the "chimera" were found, he seemed rather excited about the possibility of fighting someone as strong as the chimera, a being that had already defeated many powerful foes before, and was already rumored to have defeated Valen or even Jakob, although the news were not as widespread across the Star System, even less the entire Galaxy.
Accompanying him there were another two Dragons, whose names were often given to them based in their elemental powers. Blazer was a giant Great Fire Dragon God with the power to burn entire continents within the worlds he had conquered, he was a merciless, ruthless, and quite brainless wild fighter that had a very bad time at talking with elaborate words but was a terrifying battle junkie.
And then to the other side, there was Atlas, a giant Great Earth Dragon Titan God, an even bigger Earth Dragon whose size had reached hundreds of meters, his enormous body was capable of digging through the surface of planets all the way to their core to devour the minerals he found nourishment on. He was a rather pacific dragon, but his mere movements and his way to feed himself already made him a monstrous threat to any living being in this Galaxy.
Glacial, Blazer, and Atlas led a group of around fifty God-Realm Dragons of various elements, assigned to them to lead them against the crusade to defeat and kill the chimera, the powerful entity created by the wicked lich made out of the corpses of the dragons and vampires families.
Glacial couldn\'t had taken such a stupid job though, he was more concentrated into finding new and powerful rivals, not fighting a mere chimera with no power at all, however, this was more personal, after all, the corpse of one of his older siblings, Darkgale, the Great Dragon God of Darkness and Destruction, was used for the creation of this monstrous chimera.
Darkgale was the older brother of all three of these dragons, and was someone they held in high respect, someone they admired. Darkgale was a caring older brother, despite having been thrown in an unforgiving world to grow stronger there since he was a small egg, he continued to grow stronger alone until he reached the ability to travel across space and leave this planet, finding his family quickly after through his tracing abilities he developed through his journey as a small dragon.
Despite having experienced a terrible childhood, Darkgale was surprisingly kind-hearted, and worked as an instructor of the younglings. Perhaps because he didn\'t wanted them to go through the same harshness and near-death experiences at such young ages as he did, or perhaps because he pitied the young siblings, he worked hundreds of years raising many young siblings. Although he still dropped them into planets to leave them by themselves, he usually did so after preparing them for five years
He taught them everything they knew about hunting, scheming, using their elemental powers, abusing the system\'s skills and more, all of such things that later on became essential for Blazer, Glacial, and Atlas to undergo their own challenge after they were dropped in a random planet of the Galaxy to grow stronger through their next years until reaching maturity.
Thanks to his solidarity, many dragons made it out into maturity, greatly increasing the amount of powerful dragons in the family.
However, one fateful day…
