Chapter 370 - Its Time (2/2)
”Okay…”
Abyss swallowed the core in an instant, as she felt a bit of energy but nothing much…
”Nothing happened- UWAH!”
FLASH!
Suddenly, her entire body began to exude cosmic energy, which started to spread around her body, ever part of her slimy aberrant body started to gain cosmic energy! And as a Shoggoth, a race very close to this energy, she began to harbor it at an incredibly fast speed, gaining more and more power in the process.
”T-This is cosmic energy?” asked Abyss.
The energies started to converge around her body and the core emerged inside of her chest, staying quiet there, the energies quickly dissipated, and it felt as if nothing had happened…
But it had, yes, something has really happened, Abyss had unlocked an incredible level of power now… well, energy, which she now would have to somehow be able to use.
Compared to Chaos, it could be said he had a thousand while she had ten… it was a very small quantity, but the nourishment of the core using other energies would increase this quantity over time. Chaos had designed Cosmic Cores to be able to absorb energy of any type and transform it into cosmic energy, just like the seed of the universe was able to do… although to a way smaller and incredibly nerfed scale, but that it worked nonetheless according to such expectations.
Now with that in mind, Chaos had the power to literally enhance anyone's strength using Cosmic Energy, and he began to give everyone a Cosmic Core, for those incapable of eating like Belphegor, he simply stuck the core inside of his skull and used Synthesis to fuse it inside, the process was the same and he gained a bit of cosmic energy.
When the entire process ended, it has been almost an entire day an everyone was exuding an faint amount of cosmic auras around their bodies, which looked as beautiful as aurora borealis themselves… with that done, Chaos quickly began a small class where he taught everyone how to use this energy properly, from the very basics to the more complicated ways of using it, as he wanted everyone to be capable of using this energy to grow as strong as possible and as quick as possible, it wasn't that he was ruthless with them or something, but they were in a hurry, even with the time dilation, and they knew it, so they had to quickly learn and adapt to it.
When the classes ended, almost a day had passed but everyone was more or less able to control a part of this energy, and quickly went on their own ways to grow stronger, some began to channel magic and gather it into their chest to refine it with cosmic energy, others went to practice and use martial techniques, trying to figure out ways to gain more power, all while they also constantly slain divine beast inside their divine realms to gain energy through the system and slowly grow stronger, even if this process had now become incredibly slow, this was still working for them so they did it anyways, as much as possible…
Meanwhile, now that Chaos was on his own, he began to do the same, putting some clones to slay divine beasts all while he practiced using cosmic energy and also multitasked, going to the underground of his castle, and seeing the summoning artifact.
”It is time to eat this.” He thought.
Indeed… he was going to finally eat the summoning artifact!
