Chapter 149 - A Date Between Abominations
-----
After washing the dishes together, Chaos decided to invite Abyss into the gardens around the castle.
After many weeks, the entire castle now looked made anew by all the reparations and cleaning it had been done over it. Long gone were the days when this place looked like an abandoned castle of thousands of years of age, but now it looked like the finest there could be probably in the entirety of this garbage-depositing planet.
There were many people going in and out, inside the castle there were many large room used as classrooms for Alchemists, Chefs, Crafters, Blacksmiths, and so on, which were being constantly made through educating and teaching those interested. Chaos required such workers to complete the amazing and incredibly grand-scale project of a Chaos Barrier around the entire island.
Due to this insane dream which he wouldn't be present to do by himself, he needed as much workhand and experts. Alchemists would be required to create the mana batteries and the incantations, the runes, and more, the crafters would aid into creating special magical stones alongside the blacksmiths, while also upgrading the system of magic technology that has begun to be introduced and added into this project.
Additionally, there were new jobs, Engineers, which were being added into the crew which came from the city, very talented people with all kinds of technology that could freshen up things with their knowledge.
All of this massive group of people was constantly working together and harder than ever to even begin this project, which had massive proportions, but which they knew would be important for the security of the island..
"Everyone is working so hard… It makes me feel a bit worthless…" sighed Abyss.
"Worthless? What are you talking about? You have over 20 clones working around the entire castle constantly cleaning everywhere, cooking, teaching, and all…" said Chaos, he felt like Abyss was being too humble there.
"Ah… haha… but compared to my lord that can have up to a hundred clones, I am very useless." Sighed Abyss.
"No? You're very useful, Abyss, don't belittle yourself so much… You're my future wife, therefore, you're already amazing by itself." Said Chaos.
"W-Wife?"
"I-Indeed…" said Chaos, he got a bit red himself…
Abyss got so embarrassed she covered her face and averted her face from Chaos, steam coming out of her ears a lot…
"Uwahh…. W-Wife? I will be a wife?" she began to think.
"A-Anyways, take my hand, Abyss." Chaos said, as he extended his hand to his lover.
"Oooh, alright!"
Abyss gave her hand to Chaos, as he held her tightly and hugged her with his arms.
"Let's go."
FLASH!
Chaos extended his dragon wings up to three times their original size and flapped them fast, in an instant, he flew into the skies at an incredible speed!
"W-Wow…!"
"Do you like to see the skies? Let's go even further above…"
Chaos looked above the skies and led Abyss further above, breaking through the dark clouds and reaching a beautiful blue sky…
"Uwaah…"
The weak sun that barely reached this faraway planet greeted her, shining brightly…
"Beautiful, isn't it?" asked Chaos.
"Hmm… Did you brought me here to see the sun, my lord?" asked Abyss.
"Indeed, I just wanted to take a little break from everything down below… Let's fly around a bit more." Said Chaos.
"Alright!"
Abyss used her ability to float using her spatial magic and flew around the skies with Chaos.
They crossed through the clear skies, above the dark clouds, following the sun.
They spent several minutes, if not a few hours doing this, chasing each other atop the clouds, freely.
The breeze was cold but nice. And their bodies danced atop the clouds like little and innocent birds playing around.
Abyss had a lot of fun chasing Chaos, as he chased her sometimes.
They embraced one another in tight hugs at times, kissing in the process.
Suddenly, Chaos held her hand once more, and led her above.
"Let's go a bit further above."
They flew atop the heavens and reached outer space, as a sea of stars greeted their sight.
To the far distance, they were able to see another planet, a neighbor planet of Ginnungagap, which Chaos didn't remember its name.
However, there was also a large asteroid ring around the planet, where there was a lot of floating space garbage… nonetheless, if they ignored this, they were able to see the beautiful outer space. The infinite cosmos greeting their sight was truly a scenery of inspiration for their young and developing minds.
Chaos wanted to go further, to just move whenever he wanted, to travel space with her, and to not care about anything else… but he had many things he wanted to care about, and couldn't simply move over to another place without properly preparing.
"We'll get out one day and we'll travel around. We just need to increase our ranks a bit more." Said Chaos.
"I see… Let's do our best so we can explore the vast cosmos together then!" said Abyss.
"We will… Belphegor said that leaving the planet while being Demigods of Rank 5 would be the safest. Outside of this low-level planet, he said that there are many terrifying beings… roaming everywhere, of ranks and realms we cannot even reach yet. But if we reach this rank and realm, we should at least be able to escape or look from afar." Said Chaos.
"Such mysteriousness… What do you pretend to do when we are over with this world, my lord?" wondered Abyss.
"We'll most likely move through the planets of the solar system. I require to reach the Heralds of Light planet and retrieve mother and father from their grasp, in the way, we can also decimate them too." Said Chaos.
"Ooh! Fufu… Sounds like a good plan. I can't wait to go! We could taste all types of alien creatures too." Said Abyss.
"Indeed, it will be a fun trip… For now, let's go back." Said Chaos.
"Alright… B-But, my lord, can we kiss here?" asked Abyss.
"Here?"
"It just… looks like a nice spot." Said Abyss timidly.
"Sure…" said Chaos, smiling.
He hugged her waist tightly as he kissed her once more, bathing beneath the light of the stars, it was indeed quite romantic.
