Chapter 17: Choosing the Broad Path That Avoids Sucking Giant Squid Is…
Dreig was a Solar Knight.
But he wasn’t an ordinary Solar Knight; he was a Champion!
This title, Champion, was given by Sulya. Only those who killed powerful chaotic demons in battle earned it.
In his fight against the Demon Prince and the Abomination King, Dreig killed six bloodthirsty demons and one demon general who commanded the others. Because of this, he got the Champion title.
His helmet once had a crown showing he was a Champion.
But now, the crown was crooked and stuck in mud, and he struggled badly.
“Bang!”
“Crack—!”
“Ah!”
He blocked the sharp bites with his “quasi-artifact” giant hammer. He used his strong armor, blessed by the Giant God, to hold off the claw attacks.
The Giant God’s champion stood firm like a rock against the chaos waves.
But he couldn’t last much longer.
“Roar—!”
“Growl…”
Beyond the warriors’ cries, the bloodthirsty demons’ roars echoed in the deep sea.
It wasn’t their loudness; it was their huge numbers.
Hundreds of bloodthirsty demons swarmed Dreig, pounding and biting wildly. They pushed forward; when one fell, another took its place, unafraid of pain or death.
There were too many, and Dreig was finally overwhelmed.
“Oh no!”
“How did I get blown to the chaotic demons’ base?!”
He saw more enemies coming from a distant “underwater castle” and spat blood on the ground.
“Great Giant God!”
“I can’t hope to live!”
“But even if I die here, I’ll follow your will and give more sacrifices!”
“Best if I take these evil chaotic creatures with me!”
“But can I?!”
Dreig didn’t hate the Giant God for blowing him here. Against chaos, sacrifice was key to winning!
He just wanted his death to kill as many bloodthirsty demons as possible. With less chaos power in this sea, the mobile city could escape, and the Giant God could grow stronger.
That bright teaching could then reach all people, driving out chaos and bringing light to the world.
“Sorry, Giant God.”
“I tried my best…”
Under the tide of bloodthirsty demons, Dreig was overwhelmed.
Just as one bloodthirsty demon grabbed his throat, ready to deliver the final blow…
“Boom—— Boom—— Boom——!”
A huge boom echoed from above.
All the bloodthirsty demons froze.
Champion Dreig was shocked to see these demons, known for being fierce, brutal, bloodthirsty, and fearless, trembling in terror.
Soon…
“Roar——!”
“Ah!”
They screamed, cried for help in the chaotic tongue, and fled everywhere.
Meanwhile, a massive shadow covered them.
Then…
“Whoosh——!”
A violent suction pulled from above!
It was the Giant God!
He came himself, his huge jaw opening wide as he violently sucked in the chaotic bloodthirsty demons below.
“No——!”
“Help!”
“Demon! The demon is here!”
“He’s going to wipe us out!”
Maybe the big names in the Chaos Council and Chaos deities didn’t grasp how bad it was, but the scary story had spread among the low-level demons on the seafloor.
A terrifying Giant God, filled with hate and sworn to destroy all chaos, was roaming the ocean floor.
Any chaos he met, from deities to the lowest monsters and followers, was wiped out completely.
He had no mercy, ignored bribes, saw everything clearly, and was very strong.
He was fiercer than the wildest bloodthirsty demon and crueler than the cruelest killer.
Before this mad deity, any tricks, deals, and lies were useless.
Because his goal was
Only one — to erase all chaos!
No matter the cost.
So, in their fear, the demons nicknamed him “Demon.”
True to his name, the "Demon" showed no mercy, drawing in every demon he found, whether attacking Glade, rushing as reinforcements, or hiding in chaotic strongholds; none escaped, all swallowed into his mouth.
Even those demons who buried themselves in the mud in panic were dug out and swallowed whole!
In this area, swarming with hundreds of demons, a rare spectacle appeared.
A large number of demons, along with the muddy sand from the ocean floor and their hiding buildings, were being sucked up into the sea above, flowing into the giant jaws of the Giant God, who was devouring everything!
“Hahaha——!”
The Giant God Champion Dreig laughed heartily. Though he was unfortunate enough to be caught by the suction force, soon to be sent into the belly of the god he worshiped, he welcomed this future with glee.
After all, as a follower, wasn’t returning to the embrace of the Giant God a kind of honor!?
“Great Giant God!”
“Thank you for hearing my prayers!”
“You fulfilled my wish, letting me perish alongside these vile demons!”
“Hahaha…”
He laughed like this.
Despite facing death, the fearless champion knight showed no fear.

Trilobite heard that sucking giant squid was a futile endeavor.
So, he went to do something more promising—he went to suck in plankton!
And the rewards were quite good.
“Oh oh oh!”
“Not bad! Not bad!”
“There were so many ‘plankton’ here to suck into my belly!”
“Oh, there were also plenty hiding in these protruding ‘rock crevices’, so I sucked them down too!”
“Oh, some were buried in the sand as well!”
“I sucked them into my belly, sucked them into my belly!”
“Sucked them in, inhaled them, all into my belly.”
“Eating until full, evolving stronger, and finally becoming a Tyrannosaurus Rex!”
…
Watching the Chaos Energy rise rapidly, Trilobite was overjoyed and even began humming a strange song he made up.
Though the Chaos Energy gained from a single plankton was tiny, with the huge amount he sucked in, his Chaos Energy had already hit “500” and kept climbing.
He realized that to boost Chaos Energy, he just needed to suck in these little red dots.
But he noticed these little red dots gave weak Chaos Energy; several seemed to count as just one dot…
Though a bit disdainful, Trilobite still took all the plankton.
“Mosquito legs are still meat!”
But right then, he suddenly saw his Chaos Energy spike, then drop several points before rising again.
And he spotted the reason clearly.
“Wow!”
“I accidentally sucked in a ‘Blue Dot creature’!”
“Quick, spit it out!”
“Cough cough…”
“Ugh—!”
In Trilobite’s view, a little Blue Dot, wrapped in a big blob of “slime,” was spat out and shot far away.
