Endless Chaos – Chaos Void Plane: The Path of the Devourer
Chapter 2: The First Devouring
The Chaos Void was never truly silent.
Invisible currents of chaotic energy flowed endlessly across the infinite darkness. Sometimes these currents collided, forming violent storms that could destroy newborn Concept Seeds.
Sometimes… they created life.
Floating within the depths of the Void, the newborn Devourer slowly absorbed the surrounding chaos. Each fragment of energy that touched its body disappeared instantly, devoured and transformed into power.
Its unstable form gradually became clearer.
A shadowy humanoid figure began to take shape—formed from pure chaotic essence.
But the hunger inside it did not weaken.
It only grew stronger.
The Devourer instinctively stretched its awareness outward. Its senses were strange, unlike normal sight or hearing. It could feel energy, movement, and existence itself within the nearby chaos.
And soon…
It sensed something.
Not far away, a massive creature drifted through the Chaos Void.
It was a Chaos Beast, a creature born naturally from chaotic storms. Its body resembled a gigantic serpent made of dark mist and glowing fragments of energy. Every movement caused ripples of destruction in the surrounding chaos.
For most newborn beings, such a creature would be a terrifying predator.
But when the Devourer sensed it…
The hunger inside its core exploded.
Food.
Stolen story; please report.
The Devourer did not understand fear.
It only understood hunger.
The shadowy figure began drifting toward the Chaos Beast, pulled by instinct. The closer it moved, the stronger the creature’s chaotic aura became.
The Chaos Beast suddenly stopped.
Its glowing eyes turned toward the approaching figure.
The creature sensed something strange.
The Devourer was small compared to it—almost insignificant.
Yet something about the being felt… wrong.
Dangerous.
The Chaos Beast roared, releasing a violent wave of chaotic energy that tore through the surrounding Void.
The Devourer did not retreat.
Instead, the hunger within it surged.
Dark energy spread from its body like invisible tendrils.
When the Chaos Beast attacked, the Devourer reached out.
And the power of its Concept activated for the first time.
Devour.
The chaotic attack that rushed toward it suddenly twisted and collapsed, sucked into a swirling darkness surrounding the Devourer.
The attack vanished.
Absorbed.
The Devourer’s body grew stronger instantly.
The Chaos Beast froze in confusion.
Its attack… had been eaten.
Before it could react again, the Devourer moved.
It shot forward like a streak of darkness.
When it touched the massive serpent’s body, the result was immediate.
The Chaos Beast screamed.
Where the Devourer touched it, the creature’s body began dissolving into pure chaotic energy, rapidly pulled into the Devourer’s core.
The Devourer was devouring it.
The serpent struggled violently, thrashing across the Void and releasing destructive storms of chaos.
But the Devourer clung to it like an endless black hole.
Piece by piece…
Energy by energy…
The gigantic Chaos Beast was consumed.
Its roar slowly weakened.
Its body shrank.
And finally—
Silence.
The last fragment of the Chaos Beast disappeared into the Devourer.
A powerful surge of energy exploded within the Devourer’s core. Its shadowy body expanded, becoming far more stable and powerful than before.
For the first time since its birth…
The Devourer felt satisfaction.
The hunger calmed slightly.
But only slightly.
Because something new had awakened within its consciousness.
Fragments of understanding.
Fragments of instinct.
A path.
The Path of the Devourer.
To grow stronger…
To evolve…
To become complete…
It must devour more.
Much more.
Far away in another region of the Chaos Void, a massive presence suddenly opened its eyes.
A being surrounded by endless flowing symbols of knowledge.
One of the ancient Chaos Lords.
The Lord of the Path of Knowledge.
Its countless glowing eyes looked toward the distant darkness where the Chaos Beast had vanished.
For a long moment, it remained silent.
Then the ancient lord spoke softly into the Chaos.
“Something… has begun.”
Back in the darkness, the Devourer slowly turned its gaze toward the endless Void.
Countless sources of chaotic energy existed across the plane.
Food.
All of it… was food.
And without hesitation, the Devourer began moving deeper into the Chaos Void.
Unaware that its existence had already been noticed.
Unaware that one day…
The entire Chaos Void Plane would tremble before its hunger.
