I don't know about Monsters fleeing from something(though, sound cool), but you are right about Gods outside the Apostles existing, Valravn mention *Two Parasites* and Ella explain further on the multiple Clasifications of Gods, one of them being Alien Entities from outside the Universe/Spheres of Existence.What's the overarching story anyways?
From what i can gather, the monsters and apostles are continuously invading planets & civilizations in a cycle of destruction & propagation of their species. But with the monster world arc, the things corrupting the sky and the ocean, it feels more like the monster tide is running away from something therefore invading different worlds to move(run away to) into. Possibly outer gods not from their universe or dimension? It was mentioned there are other gods besides the ones in this reality. So, besides the 12 Apostles and the 6 Arbiters(i assume these are the progenitors of the Apostles?), there are outer gods like the one worshipped by Strength Eaters or the Outer Twins & God slayer etc. Or maybe it's a free for all, and every god is competing to eat as many worlds as they can.
Seems the monsters are trying to create a vessel or a ritual to allow their Apostles to descend. I'm guessing it's to lead their species and also to fight the outer gods/corruption or something? But the Apostles are also kinda busy playing politics against each other.
And then we got Chosen who betrayed the Apostles, trying to stop them and the destruction(possibly also to fight the outer gods/corruption). Surprisingly more than half the Chosen are betrayers. Aglaecwif wants a child that can kill the gods.
Not to mention the Chaos Memory of last update, that seem to suggest that some Arbiters were warped into Twin Apostles, my guess is that the ones that did so were the Outer Twins. There is also Deus, he seem to be playing on a larger scale than the cycle of monster invasion/ocupation, has constant nightmares about "the terrors of this universe" and apparently has an extremely weird nature for a Superhuman, my favorite ''theory" about him is that Deus is the Spawn of one Alien God, hence his strange powers(Time related for example, while he himself almost directly denying being related to the 5th Apostle whose Domain is time) and knowledge beyond Ella's
