Chapter 364 – Goodnight

—–

"By the way, how is Aruliel? And where is Dura and the guy named Froggo?" asked Abyss.

Abyss remembered about these three that Chaos had told her about from before. Aruliel had been with Chaos the entire journey he had inside the giant frog mother, and Dura and Froggo as well.

Froggo in specific came from a tribe of frog-kin inside of the giant frog\'s stomach, and Abyss knew about him only because Chaos spoke to her about him, he mostly had da normal personality within the context of being from a wild tribe of frogs, and he had a knack for magic… mostly because Chaos provided a staff that could unleash magic.

And then there was Dura who had been with him since the beginning of the journey as she was inside of his divine realm when he got inside the frog, she had been supporting him and Aruliel ever since, and as the group of three and then four with Froggo made their way down they ended finding those weird ruins where the fragments of the forbidden one\'s were and… well, the rest is history.

Aruliel has been sleeping ever since everything ended, but she seems to be healthy. After going berserk, her appearance changed a lot, and looked more demon-like, but after going to rest, her appearance reverted back to how everyone always sees her as…

She seemed to be alright, however, the powers of the Forbidden One\'s Ego to be able to manipulate other people\'s emotions and more seemed rather bad, especially because he could employ it to control Aruliel thanks to the fragments she had fused with while she had sealed herself to not die against them in the first place.

The power of the Ego Fragment had the ability to control other Fragments with ease and command them to attack their hosts, of course, this didn\'t worked against Chaos because the fragments were devoured by him and became part of his very self, and even now that almost all of his body was torn apart, he was still possesing these fragments and they had not gone anywhere… they were able to regenerate endlessly.

However, it was different with Aruliel, she had not true power over her fragments, and the power she was getting from them was only passive, now that they were awakened by the command and words of their Ego, they had tried to take over her and completely parasitize her… But through sheer will as an angel, Aruliel was able to fight back their control and helped Chaos defeat the amalgamation of Fragments commanded by the Ego of the Forbidden One, or well, one of his many fragments, apparently…

Aruliel, after that, had been unconscious and resting inside of his divine realm, although she had initially helped him chase down the Ego for a while, after everything ended badly, she fell unconscious and Chaos saved her inside his divine realm, asking other people to take care of her, while leaving some flesh clones as well.

She had made a good recovery thanks to her natural regenerative abilities as an angel, so she should be doing fine for now, and would continue to get better over time, so there wasn\'t much one had to get worried about…

Meanwhile, Dura had been conscious and had been saved by Cthully from all people, alongside Froggo, the two ended being confined in bubbles made of psionic energy for protection, but things ended abruptly for them as they were now finally inside the divine realm… Dura was currently resting, and so was Froggo, just that they were resting in the respective areas of their tribes.

Most of the Orcs were now living in a large town near the castle while the Frog-kin, recently introduced here, were living in the swamps near the area where the Orcs were originally located.

"They\'re all good. Aruliel got better and is resting, while Dura is also resting and Froggo… also resting. Everyone is resting, we should do the same now." Said Chaos.

"R-Right… Let\'s go to bed then… Are you not hungry?" asked Abyss.

"I am… Let\'s have some dinner before bed." Said Chaos.

"Okay! I\'ll make you lots of stuff so you can fill your belly." Said Abyss.

"Thank you." Said Chaos with a mild smile.

Actually, he had the intention to help Abyss book today.

After the two got out of the bathroom, dried their bodies and then got some more loosen and comfortable clothes, they moved to the kitchen and cooked together like a cute couple.

Both had monstrous and gluttonous appetites, so they ended eating a lot before they were satisfied, and when they were finally satisfied, they were ready to move back to bed.

Abyss had not been sleeping in the same bed as Chaos, but now he decided to leave her sleep with him.

"I-Is it okay?" She asked.

Abyss was a bit nervous, she thought she was stepping out of her boundaries by sleeping at his side even when they were not going to do anything lewd at all, but Chaos seemed adamant in that.

At the end, he ended telling Chaos the truth of what he wanted, as he told her that he truly wanted to hug her…

"Yeah, I want to hug you while I sleep." Said Chaos with great honesty.

He surprised Abyss a bit, as she looked at him with her big, yellow-colored eyes. Such honestly made Abyss mile warmly back at Chaos, as she realized that he was a sweet young man that only deserved to be loved.

"Hehe, you\'re so honest… Okay then… Come here… Dear." Said Abyss.

She hugged Chaos tightly and pushed him down into the bed gently, the two felt each other\'s warmth, which was very small due to both being usually quite cold-bodied.

"Abyss…" Said Chaos, the two cuddled in bed, as Chaos covered the two with blankets, and Chaos hugged Abyss tightly, while she kissed his nose.

"Goodnight…" she said.

"Goodnight…" said Chaos.

The two slept relaxedly, as time slowly went on. Chaos was able to finally sleep normally for once, and so did Abyss, this little moment together was something quite enjoyable for the two…
