Chaos found himself inside a hut made of bones and leather, painted with many cute paintings, there were things such as little frogs playing around, the swamps outside the stomach, lily pads, and the sun which seems to be missed by the frog-kin.
Aruliel quickly ran inside the room where he was, as she was carrying a pot filled with strange slimy and transparent eggs… however, she ended dropping them over the ground as she ran back to Chaos, trying to hug him with her wings but instead being swiftly evaded by him.
"Augh…!"
She fell over her face in the floor… Chaos sensed the floor was soft and strangely spongy, it was flesh. He had not come out of the frog yet… this hellish place was still containing him inside.
"What happened?" he asked.
"Ah! Well, the acid tsunami swallowed us… but when you generated the barrier, you protected us! However, the barrier broke at the end, and we all drowned into the acid… but I made a heaven barrier and rescued everyone in time." Said Aruliel while nodding pridefully.
"I see… Oh well, but where are we though?" he asked. Chaos seemed strangely calm once more, he had failed miserably but his mind was once more cold-headed and quite pragmatic. He was now wondering where he was and what to do in the situation given. He still had his divine realm to run into and escape from this place, although not outside of the stomach as he would still remain within this space, so he would still need to escape the stomach physically… but at the very least, inside the divine realm there were better conditions, his home, delicious food, and his citizens.
Maybe he could simply stay there and wait for Abyss and the rest to find a way to help them get out of the frog, although Chaos wasn't someone so lazy to let his retainers do everything for him, he would find a way to crawl out of here by himself anyways. Although he wouldn't mind getting into his bed for once…
"We are in Froggo's home! He invited us here to pass the night… I meet his family! He got a big dad, a mother, and two little siblings, a boy, and a girl! They're all cute!" she said with a bright smile. Aruliel was a goof.
"I guess you've enjoyed yourself…" said Chaos.
"Yeah, and- Ah!"
"Oh? You're awake! You made a big mess! We almost died there!" said Froggo, entering the room. Being lectured by this frog kid made Chaos felt a bit frustrated, but he wasn't an overly aggressive person either, well, maybe against enemies, but this frog kid was just a bit cocky, not deserving of being angrily shouted back at or slaughtered mercilessly because he was just talking back at him. Chaos had learned "basic decency" after all.
He also admitted that he had committed a mistake and should had listened to the kid, he had been living here for way longer than him, so he obviously knew way more too! Ignoring the kids' warnings and simply trying to blast the entire stomach ended going against him. This frog was simply way too strong, stronger than Chaos. This was now a fact Chaos couldn't escape from.
"I apologize. I should had listened to you." Said Chaos, admitting his mistake, he, a god, apologized to the frog kid, Froggo.
"A-Ah! D-Don't worry about it! I am a bit pissed but whatever… You're really strong! Aruliel said you're a god! Is that true? I can't believe the frog can even eat gods… Ah well, the tales said he did eat them…" said Froggo.
"What? What tales?" asked Chaos while raising an eyebrow.
"Hmm, how about we tell you while you eat something with us? Dinner is almost ready. Dad is making Grilled Acid Fish and worm, and there's also boiled worm eggs and gastric amoeba soup!" said Froggo, licking his lips with his big tongue. The things he spoke about didn't seem appetizing, but Chaos had eaten worse stuff before, so he didn't mind and even felt a bit hungry by hearing about them.
"Sure, thanks for your hospitality." He said. Chaos could easily bring tastier food outside of his divine realm, but he chose to enjoy the endemic cuisine of the frog-kin first, just to have a new experience. What was the point of living without having various experiences? And Chaos was rather quirky when it came to food, he was bold enough to eat anything new they presented to him, even if it sounded gross.

"Then come with us!" said Froggo, as Chaos stood up and followed him with Aruliel. He suddenly found himself in another room with a lot of other frog-kin, they all looked similar to Froggo, and looked at Chaos with a bit of surprise, he emanated a strong presence which made them paralyzed at first.
"A-Ah! You must be Chaos! You were the one that big commotion? Some people had their houses drowned due to the tsunami; you know?" asked Froggo's father.
"Sigh… You're a very strong being, but you should be more careful…" sighed Froggo's mother.
"Wow, you're pale! Hair! is that hair? white hair…" one of the little frog kids said.
"Do you jump?" asked the second.
"I am sincerely sorry… Is there any way I can help the people that had their homes drowned? I can offer them materials to make a new home or just a new world altogether…" said Chaos.
"A-A new world altogether?" asked Froggo's father.
"What is the talking about?" asked Froggo's mother.
"Ah! That's because we gods have divine realms! Chaos-sama has a divine realm inside of him, you can get there to live peacefully if you want!" said Aruliel.
"S-Such a thing is possible?!"
"Wait, you're a god?!"
"God? What's a god?"
"Kami-sama?"
"Uh, yeah, it's not that much of a big deal…" said Chaos.
"Y-You seem sincere…" said Froggo's mother.
"W-Well, this is a bit too much for me for now… let's eat and then we can talk it out as we do, I am starving." Said Froggo's father.
And then… Chaos was invited to eat with a frog family.
