…

Chaos felt his power skyrocket once more, he had reached Rank 3 out of 9 of the Living Deity Realm in a flash! And to boot, he acquired a very useful Ability that could help him wield the power of the Forbidden One even better than before.

However, was this enough?

No, it wasn't!

A Rank 3 Living Deity would still die miserably against 5 Demigods at full strength, especially by seeing how coordinated they were!

Chaos looked at his power as he felt it wasn't enough, gritting his teeth in frustration. He felt the struggles that his clones were going through which he shared deeply as they were still part of him. The difficulties he was facing were a trial, a trial to show his determination to win and survive!

"I am going to survive!" he thought, his eyes flashed with a deadly crimson-red glint. He looked at Abyss and the rest.

"Erebus, open a teleportation trap back home." He said.

"Okay, papa!"

FLASH!

A large teleportation circle emerged in the ground, which Erebus conjured using his power as a half-dungeon.

"All of you, hop inside, except you, Erebus." Said Chaos.

"B-But Chaos…!" said Abyss.

"Do as I say! Don't worry." Said Chaos, smiling back at Abyss, as she gritted her teeth.

Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash!

Everyone quickly teleported back home, as Chaos stayed with Erebus.

"Erebus, your aid will be necessary, but… I am not willing to lose you. Are you capable of self-dividing?" asked Chaos.

"Yes… I can…" said Erebus.

"Then do it, create a strong self-duplication which you are willing to sacrifice… I am sorry for being so sudden." Said Chaos.

"No, it's fine! Anything for papa!" said Erebus, filled with determination, his fully healed dungeon core suddenly split in half, as his darkness transferred to it, and two Erebus were born!

"Ready!" he said.

"I will do the same then!"

Chaos quickly began to divide his soul.

This time, it wants going to be tiny parts.

He was bold and cut off 60% of his entire soul!

After that, he transferred 99% of his flesh into it, as a new Chaos emerged out of thin air!

Meanwhile, the real one was exhausted, ending in the size of a tiny eyeball with some flesh.

"P-Papa, what are you doing?!" asked Erebus.

"Don't worry, I will go evolve now back home, through evolution, I can fully restore my soul and body… Now, both of you clones, do as much as you can to buy us time, distract the Gods as much as possible!" said Chaos, as he quickly traveled into the teleportation trap alongside Erebus, the teleportation trap quickly broke down into runes and disappeared…

Chaos reached the throne room as his weakened form was shown to everyone, and then…

FLASH!

A large cocoon of blood emerged out of thin air as shadows and darkness began to shroud his body!

"I have to evolve as quickly as possible…!" he thought. As his entire body began to pulsate with energy!

He had indeed become a Living Deity, but he felt that there was something off with this. He was sure that he had read somewhere that he would get something inside his soul, a Divine Realm!

However, this Divine Realm was nowhere to be seen, and he had not acquired the power of divine energy either… why was this?

He had acquired the power of a Living Deity but not what made it different from mortals?

Perhaps he could get his answers if he evolved, through it, his latent talents would surge, and he might be able to finally kick in the actual power of a Living Deity…

He looked into his available Evolution Options hurriedly, as his clone and that of Erebus did what they were told to do.

…

[Available Evolution Options]

[Vampirus Draken Deity of Blood and Darkness]

[Vampirus Draken Deity of Gluttony and Greed]

[Vampirus Draken Deity of Chaos and Void]

…

"…!"

Chaos saw in front of him three new options, and they were strange.

Instead of being new species or race names like before, they were all "Vampirus Draken of…"!

What could this possibly mean? It meant that, as a Living Deity… he was going to be able to pick up a Divinity!

Indeed, Living Deities were not named like this for nothing.

Those Demigods didn't got their divinities when they became Demigods, but when they became Living Deities.

And now, Chaos could only pick one between all three of them, Blood and Darkness, Gluttony and Greed, or Chaos and Void!

All three of them seemed interesting and mysterious, Chaos couldn't help but wonder what effects the divinities harbor within them could have.

However, he was running out of time, he couldn't sit here and read things leisurely while he needed as much time as possible, he didn't even knew how long it would take for him to evolve after all!

Divinities were powerful supernatural abilities that entities that had attained a certain amount of divine power could acquire, they carried all sorts of passive and active effects…!

And now, Chaos had to choose his own divinity.
