Chaos licked the pulp of the Mindflayer without minding the entire spaceship being covered in flames, as he tasted the flavor of his first squid. ​​

Ding!

[Tentacled Aberration]

[Telekinesis]

[Mind Blast]

Chaos gained several new Skills out of this, the Mind Flayer offered a new array of unique Skills as well, which expanded Chaos' ability to use his Mind, granting him more advanced ways of using Psionic Energies!

However, getting the skills didn't mean that he could use it all perfectly, he would need to at least practice it a bit, especially because within the Mind Flayer's Psionic Arts Skill, there were many techniques included, just like a Magic Skill that has spells.

"Hm, sweet… And bitter, the bones are very fragile…" he thought, as he quickly released miasma everywhere and turned off the fire. Walking outside of the spaceship while seeing the large group of people entangled within Abyss's body.

"Uaaggh! Help!"

"Please don't eat us!"

"GGYAAAH! SLIMEEEE!"

"Oi, you! Please help us!"

"Ggrrr, how rude! Abyss is not a monster! Abyss is Chaos' maid!" said Abyss, while pouting, but by hearing her monstrous voice the people became even more terrified.

Chaos noticed the Half-Vampire girl being carried by Dura.

"What's your name?" he asked.

"Ah! Y-You're the dragon?! My name is Natalia… Thank you very much for saving us… That monster over there has been eating the people there over time… I was about to be the next one, but you came out of nowhere and saved us…" sighed the girl, she seemed to be a woman in her early twenties, with long wine-red-colored hair, crimson eyes, and pale-white skin, alongside pointy ears. Her appearance mildly resembled the vampiric features of Chaos.

"I see, my name is Chaos by the way," said Chaos, patting Natalia's shoulder as a contract through miasma connecting to Chaos soul was made automatically.

"Eh? What was that?" she wondered.

"A contract, we just meet so I don't want you to backstab me or something, this way, if you try to do so, you'll die," said Chaos, walking away nonchalantly.

"I-I see… I wasn't… planning to do that but fair enough," sighed Natalia, hoping that Chaos could be any better than a Mind Flayer.

Well, at least he had suppressed himself from eating her, although he had the intention to do so before she was to ask him to save her.

Chaos began to practice Telekinesis right away, using millions of mana to fuel this power to its limits and suddenly managing to lift the entire spaceship, which he planned to investigate in more detail, bringing it with him as the party walked back to Ainz Castle- or well, Chaos Castle.

Chaos also needed to evolve, so he didn't want to waste much time.

On the way there, Chaos inspected every person he rescued, holding his impulses for tasting them as they all seemed rather interesting and intelligent, they could bring a lot of information about the outside world that not even Belphegor could, especially Natalia who seemed more intelligent than the rest.

There were half-elves, dark elves, some humans, hobgoblins, and dwarves, they all seemed weak, only being E-Rank in Existence Realm at most, while Natalia seemed slightly stronger, being D-Rank, but that might be due to her thin vampiric bloodline giving her a small boost and not because she had actually cultivated and trained her body.

Chaos wondered what these people could bring, although he also wondered what skills they could bring by being eaten… but he decided to resist himself. Perhaps he could transform them using Miasma, who knows? There were many ways to have fun that didn't include eating your prey.

Chaos was still developing as a person, so he lacked any concept of good and evil, and merely did things that he wanted without being hindered by different ways of thinking, he had a simple way of thinking, a rather innocent one as well, as he desired to investigate the world, discover it, and also survive. He was certainly ruthless, but it was because he didn't know another way of doing things, and he often was benevolent too, without realizing what was being benevolent.

In this case, choosing to not eat these people was an act of benevolence which he didn't really realize. For him, it was a way to know these people and discover more about things he didn't know about. He was also interested in knowing if this half-vampire knew more about other vampires, which he was planning to eat.

If by not eating the first vampire, he could get even more vampires to eat later, then it was a good investment, or so he thought.

Of course, Natalia didn't know such a simplistic yet terrifying near-emotionless way of thinking that Chaos had, and saw him as someone rather good, but perhaps shy…

Well, he was shy, but he was always expressionless, so it really didn't seem like it.

Abyss and Belphegor in the other case wondered why Chaos even decided to bring these new people, as they were very weak and wouldn't do for good servants. He could quite literally enslave random monsters and even these monsters could be of better use than these weaklings…

But they didn't dare to question his decisions, always thinking that he was planning something grandiose behind the scenes by every act! Or well, not really, but he was indeed someone that always surprised them, at least in these last days.

Finally reaching the castle, the slaves and Natalia were surprised by the abundant amount of Orcs that there was going around, and also of other strange and terrifying monsters, such as the giant rock colossus, the scarecrows, living armors, and the ghosts, who were screaming in surprise, although this was their way of communicating.

"T-This… What kind of place is this?" asked Natalia, as her lips trembled in fear, she didn't seem to think that this was that big of an upgrade from the Mindflayer's spaceship…
