Chris woke up sealed in magic. His power was not responding to him, and his strength was fading away with each second. No matter how hard he tried to oppose these seals spread across his body, it was useless.

The woman at his side, one of the various Paladins that he had at his side and the only survivor was in the same position, only their eyes could look at each other in fear and despair as they couldn't even move their bodies from the positions, they were in the ground…

However, after some time, the two heard footsteps. Several figures emerged before the cells where they were confined, opening the rack slowly.

The figure of the expressionless young mand that killed Lord Loid emerged before him, the figure he detested and hated the most. The most terrible part of it all was his expressionless face, so hollow and devoid of any humanity and emotions, it was as if he were looking at a never-ending abyss.

This was the same feeling he felt when he first confronted him and ended on his knees before his very presence, the tremendous aura he possessed. He wasn't at all like the lab experiment that everyone assumed the abomination was…. No, the Elder Lich Ainz did a stupendous work with his son, to the point where he looked incredibly perfect, if not even more powerful than a dragon and a vampire. It was true, he had really created the ultimate culmination of both races…

The ultimate power of the Vampire Dragon was so strong it made those weaker than him kneel before him, tremble in utter horror and not even dare speak a word before him. It was as if their natural instincts as living beings recognized him as someone at the top of the food chain since the moment, they put a glance at his presence…

Chaos immense crimson-red eyes were so bright and charming that the woman at the side of Chris felt stranded by his handsomeness, which she tried to fight back against with her will, but due to her powers being suppressed, Chaos' natural charm was already eating her mind, as if it were an unintentional charm.

Gods, his presence was so enormous and powerful! What could they even do than fall to whatever destiny awaited them before his ruthlessness?

Chaos glanced at the two in silence.

"Stay still." He said, as he touched the two heads and utilized the Psionic Energy Arts "Mind Reading" to read the mind of both while also seeing their memories.

He was able to read their minds as he found out that Chris hated him and that the woman hated him but also found him "hot", whatever that was the case, Chaos didn't care about either of their inner thoughts that much, as he dived into their minds and memories and began to absorb it all, replicating their memories into his through his amazing photographic memory.

In just a minute, Chaos had completely acquired all their memories ever since they gained consciousness of themselves. There was a lot of useless things he would have preferred not to see, but aside from things he found a bit weird, which he omitted and quickly deleted such memories to not give himself any mental damage, he found some valuable info about what were the Heralds of Light, where this team came from, alongside all the info Chris knew about them, from the beginning to the end.

Chaos learned that the guy he killed was named Loid and that he was the Prince of the Aurora Empire, which he found a bit hilarious and a nice payback to the ones that killed his father.

He also found out they came to kill him as a trial for Loid and so on, a lot of rubbery info was mixed in between but the entire thing was simpler than it seemed, and it left Chaos a bit speechless.

"Is your leader an idiot? Why didn't the Supreme Entity of Brightness didn't bring stronger beings? If she has Demigods and Gods with her…" sighed Chaos.

Chris, who was suddenly allowed to speak, timidly confronted Chaos.

"T-That's because we didn't know about you might! We thought you were… some kind of lab experiment… No… whatever you are!" he said.

"I see. So that's how it is… I had understood a bit of it by reading your memories but hearing it from you is certainly enlightening," said Chaos.

"W-What are you going to do with us?! Just kill us already, we'll never… s-serve you!" said Chris.

"You will serve me." Said Chaos, he didn't accept a "no" for an answer, he touched Chris and the woman's head once more and used the Mind Control Psionic Energy Arts, the Brainwashing Art, and then the Mind Enslavement Art as the last dish. All three of these powerful Arts that only incredibly strong Mindflayers were able to do were easily conjured by this completely unrelated being.

"Uunnaagghh…! H-How can youuu… Brainwash?! You're not a mindflayeeeeeerrrrrrr…! Grrryyeeeegggh…!"

"Unngnghhaaaaggh…!"

As Chris and the paladin woman screamed in agony, they suddenly fell silent and ended falling asleep.

"They're asleep?" asked Abyss.

"Yes, it will take some time for their brains to settle down, I infused a tad bit too much power… But it should be fine with this. Nevertheless, I will leave some guards here, and some small clones to glance over them," said Chaos, as he pointed at the several flesh slimes stuck into the ceiling watching over everything, they had many eyes across their fleshy bodies.

"I see. My lord is truly an incredible being, to be capable of brainwashing these powerful paladins! Master Ainz would be very proud of you," said Belphegor.

"Indeed, that was crazy," said Dura.

"More importantly, shall we go have lunch?" asked Natalia.

"Sure thing, I was getting hungry of seeing these two very delicious humans. It is hard to contain myself sometimes," said Chaos.

Chaos walked outside of the cell and then decided to spend the rest of the day with Abyss and the rest rather leisurely. However, he was already planning to move into his next course of action soon.
