Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System-Chapter 452: A Voice

"There is a small group that is trailing behind the gods, they don't seem to be in good terms but had yet to fight…" it seems that they realize they have a common enemy and keep a distance from one another. I suppose those Mindflayers learned from the mistake that the previous group sent to deal with me committed, fighting the foe of their foe ended in their utter defeat, it was an easy way to destroy them too and gain a lot of power." Said Chaos. "We'll destroy their morale by slaying their Elder Brain."

Chaos had learned quite a lot from the Elder Brain, it seems the Vampires and Dragons didn't seem to mess with him due to his strength. They were also in some sort of treaty of neutrality where they didn't mess with the big families and the big families didn't bother them in their antics. Of course, the Gods that served the Supreme Deity of Brightness were different, and despised the Mindflayers.

The Elder Brain was a powerful being born from the many fused brains of the Mindflayers. When Mindflayers reached their old age and their bodies began to become weaker and started crumbling, they went through a special ritual where their brains would be extracted and fused into a mass of many brains, this is how the Elder Brain is born, a powerful being that combines the minds of many Mindflayers together.

It is a monstrously strong collective mind that could even be said to be the main mind within the Mindflayers Hivemind. The Mindflayers are able to connect their minds together and communicate from long distances with thanks to the Elder Brain through their powerful telepathy abilities. And its danger level is said to be Great God… And Chaos, after eating Jakob, was already a Rank 3 Great God, he was quite confident he would be able to defeat the Elder Brain was long as he could bear the powerful mind attacks.

He wanted to devour that big brain and acquire a great amount of new knowledge that the Mindflayers have been accumulating over the eons, alongside augmented mind, and psionic powers, which could help him deal with foes even easily… Also, there were many God-Realm Mindflayers there named Mind Gods, which could also be a good amount of Essence for his allies to become Great Gods, as they just needed a bit more of a push.

Chaos continued discussing what he was going to do with the Mindflayers and how they were going to plan things out, as the hours and days passed, they slowly prepared inside their divine realms for that day. Chaos and everyone else decided to continue training for a bit more before doing anything, the foes chasing them down were at least a week away from them yet, so they still had time. And thanks to the time dilation inside their divine realms, this gave them a big amount of time to think and do several things.

Abyss and Chaos spent a long time together. The two were growing together rather quickly as time passed, and they began to practice their abilities together as well, as the two were quite good at working together to fight foes. Abyss abilities complimented Chaos with her utility and surprise attacks, while Chaos overwhelming might was the pillar of their duo.

As days and weeks passed inside his divine realm which were only a few days outside, Chaos and Abyss flew through his Divine Realm, reaching the Sea of Chaotic Energy, in this sea of darkness, the Sprout of the Universal Seed had continued to grow bigger, now reaching the size of a big adult tree. It seems it had a big growth spur after Chaos reached Great God Realm of Rank 3.

The amount of Cosmic Energy being generated had also been multiplied hundreds of times over, which helped Chaos at using several new Cosmic Magic Spells, one of them was the Cosmic Connection, which allowed Chaos to connect his Cosmic Energy with everyone else as long as they had a Cosmic Core, which he also had upgraded into Divine Cosmic Cores.

Alongside that, the Universal Seed which had now evolved into a Young Universal Tree inside of his divine realm had begun to stretch its branches across his divine realm, which began to bypass space itself, and out of nowhere, everyone that had a Cosmic Core saw the branches of the Young Universal Tree emerging inside of their divine realms, taking root in there as well, and giving them free cosmic energy.

It seemed that for the tree to grow properly, it required to be connected with many people, the strength that Chaos had forged and the bonds with his allies were all taking effect now, as he and everyone else was overflowing with cosmic power, granting them a clear advantage above other foes they had fought before.

"It is a beautiful tree, and it will keep growing bigger… It has already taken root on my divine realm, and it is growing bigger there as well…" Said Abyss. "This cosmic connection we have now… it feels almost mystical, don't you, think, Chaos?"

Abyss smiled warmly back at Chaos, as Chaos nodded and smiled back. He had gone through a lot of things on his new life, many challenges, many foes, he experienced defeat but also victory… And now, something incredible was occurring within his divine realm and that of his allies, the amazing power of this tree would simply continue to grow bigger and stronger over time.

"Yeah, perhaps…" Said Chaos. "But recently, I felt something, as we trained together and practiced our usage of cosmic energy and how to merge it with our other energies and powers, I heard a faint voice…" Chaos said as he recalled a small voice when he was training.

And suddenly, he heard it again.

"Pa… pa…"

"There! Did you heard it?" Asked Chaos.

"I did! J-Just what was that?" Asked Abyss confusedly.

"Ma… ma…"

The voice once more spoke, with the innocent voice of a small child, and it was coming from the Universal Tree itself.
