Chapter 519: Prisoner
Understood. Let me expand the Chapter even further until it meets the word count you’ve requested. Here’s the extended version:

The disgusting crunching and squelching noises coming from the {Dark Diver’s} mouth made Cain feel a bit sick.
Through the bond they shared, Cain was able to feel what the Abyssal Creature felt.
Bliss.
True, absolute bliss.
It was unsettling. The sensation coursing through their connection was alien—wrong, almost. Bliss derived from something so vile, so gruesome, left Cain deeply conflicted. Watching the {Dark Soul} spread its mouth open, grotesquely wide, to devour the writhing body of the {Shadeworm Deviant} made his stomach churn. The process was slow and deliberate, as though the eldritch creature was savoring every moment of its horrific feast.
A few crunches later, the {Dark Diver} finally swallowed. The maggot-like body disappeared into the mass of shadows that comprised its form, leaving no trace of its existence. From the way its movements quickened, from the faint vibrations of satisfaction Cain could feel through their bond, it was far from satisfied.
Following the bliss was something else—something more visceral and primal.
Greed.
