The power of sharpened instincts
It was time to start round two, and we started with a thunderous clash that made the whole surroundings shake, evaporating some of the underground rivers behind us as we clashed our fists together, using everything we got.My body started to actively use the instincts that I have slowly tempered during my stay in the desert, slowly adapting to the War Chief's chaotic fighting style.Everything felt automatic to me, I didn't have to put any thoughts into moving my feet or legs as they would do it on their own, leaving my brain free to think about anything else while my body was doing all of the heavy loadings.It was a pretty surreal experience, almost as if someone else was controlling me, but I could feel that if I wanted to, I could still go against my instincts and move differently.However, my instincts told me that this was the best way to combat the War Chief, so I let them take over while I concentrated on hastening the energy flow through my body to continue fueling the multip

Mission complete
I decided to help her up as I injected some blood energy into her heart, making it pump at a regular speed and somewhat fixing what I had broken before.However, the blood energy I injected into her heart was also a warning and a binding as I would not let her go so quickly, it was dumb to believe her without leaving anything in place to coerce her into not betraying me at the first chance she got.The blood energy I injected into her heart acted like a time bomb, if she did something that I would find less than good against me, I would then explode her heart and kill her instantly.This was my leverage against her.Mandaia understood what happened, so she nodded and said:"Atleast you are not foolish enough to not put a restricting leash on me, let's go."We jumped out of the underground cave that we created and arrived back at the location that was previously an oasis.Now all that was left back there was a huge hole and some trees at the edges that were slowly dying out due to the

Searching for the Orgumak clan
To find that certain thing that made the continent special, I would need help and some insider information that I couldn't get my hands on so easily, so I sent a telepathic message at long-range to all of the Orcs that I have dominated so they could start an information search about the Orgumak clan.The Orgumak clan was an underground local here that seemed to contain a lot of intelligent Orcs, and whoever controlled them most likely did it so he could search for the special thing that the continent held. And they most likely thought that I was their competitor since I started to control Orcs as they did.At first, I came for the mission that the demon had given me, but now I was going to become their competitor...I wasn't sure why they had stopped sending assassins for me, but I guessed they most likely realized that the Orcs wouldn't be able to kill me with their meek strength, so they were most likely trying to dominate war chiefs or build up their strength to get rid of me once

Orgumak clan ambush
The number of Orcs that were waiting for me down on the ground wasn't little.They stretched a little bit into the horizon as they all wielded a variety of weapons, waiting for the order from their boss to swarm me.I made the drake fly away as I didn't want to lose this mount for nothing and cracked my knuckles in preparation for the battle that was to come.Out of the wave of Orcs came one that had green glowing eyes as a double-layered voice came out of his mouth, indicating that whoever was controlling these Orcs was the one talking to me right now:"If you know what's good for you, you should leave the Duramato continent as soon as possible, I will not pursue the fact that you have dominated quite a bit of Orcs, but you cannot stay on this continent one minute longer if you want to live!"I looked at this particular Orc before asking:"Oh, and why is that so? What is this continent hiding that you would go to such great lengths of ambushing me with your army?"The Orc snorted as

The secrets of the desert
To travel underground, I slightly punched the sand, creating a hole where I and the shadowy being dropped directly inside.When we reached a stop, I would punch again, creating another hole that led us forward into the underground, making our way farther and farther until I got to a place that I could not break using my whole strength.That's where I started to move to the side, trying to find a location I could break and then drop into that underground pocket where I couldn't break the soil.Slowly I reached a place where I could break while not getting too far away from that position where I was unable to move further.That's where I and the shadowy being fell into an underground cavern that was very dimly illuminated.The location was very dark, and I could barely make out a temple that stretched out in front of us even with my superior eyesight, meaning that whatever was around here was messing with my senses.The shadowy being was silent up till now, but after they were able to c

A ledger
The shadowy being tried to struggle out of my grip, but it was impossible since no matter how strong it got through the fusion of the souls, it couldn't get as strong as me in such a short amount of time.After all, if the experiment was successful, Alliron wouldn't have left their souls here to transform into those blank shadows.I slowly made my way down the stairs with the solid amalgamation of souls in my grasp, keeping it close to me so it wouldn't try any escape attempts.My grip made the being wince as I arrived at the basement of the temple, I looked around as my eyes adapted to the darkness, but I felt my eyes widen as a cold feeling crept up my spine and I heard a bored voice appear in my head:"Experiment attempt number 645..."This was Alliron's voice?But there was no one here, and that sensation and voice soon disappeared from my senses, it was almost as if my body instinctively sensed Alliron's presence that was left in this basement and read it before transmitting it t

Orgumak clan leader makes a move
After leaving the temple, I thought that I might be able to find some other experimentation sites if I followed the underground path that existed in the surroundings of the temple, but I soon found out that there were no more places where Alliron experimented previously.I tried to search by digging through the sand that was deposited in what seemed to be tunnels created previously by the legend himself, but I was unable to find any other location that contained things that were left behind by him.But he either didn't create another base that was this close to the first one, or someone else must have picked everything clean.I wasn't sure which assumption was true, but there was nothing I would do if I lingered around this area, I could sense that there wasn't anything noteworthy to be found around here because it didn't contain the aura that the ledger I had hidden in my armor had.Now that I had this ledger, it could somewhat act like a compass as I could compare the energy that wa

Searching the continent
After we had finished our alliance, I decided to ask this demon directly: "Do you know of any ways to devour souls?" The demon scratched his chin for a few seconds before saying: "Do you think that because I'm a demon and my race deals with souls, we all know how to manipulate and devour them?" I blinked my eyes at him for a few seconds and asked: "You don't know?" His response was rather cold as he said: "No, of course, I don't, I can't even write contracts like the other demons, not like it would have worked on a fateless one like you, why do you think I want Alliron's research on souls? At the base, demons are all corrupted souls that gained fleshly bodies through the corruption of their sins, so the stronger our souls become, the stronger our scales and corrupted fleshly bodies are. Normally demons would create contracts with mortals to devour their souls in exchange for forbidden knowledge. But my horn got broken in a fight, and I lost a lot of my power before being banis

The reason of the Orcs' movements
My attacks were slow while my injuries were healing and I was growing my second heart back. The Orc shaman that ambushed us was pretty surprised to see me get up and fight him without a heart, but he quickly understood that I must have another one as he focused on deflecting my and Skeral's combined attacks. Skeral was ready to unsheath his long sword as he took a drawing stance, making the Orc narrow his eyes as he unleashed a magic barrier that was cut into two the moment it came into existence. I could feel my second heart coming back into being as I attacked the Orc from behind, but he was able to catch my foot and throw me into Skeral, who disappeared into the void to avoid the collision before drawing out his sword once more thus making the Orc shaman bleed for the first time since we encountered each other. There was a shallow cut on the Orcs' neck that slowly closed and then he said: "I was wondering when the other continents would send people to this place to investigate o

Another evolution
Skeral was nursing his wounds as he looked at me from the corner of his eyes.He could feel the bitter taste of failure in his mouth as he spat on the ground and gritted his teeth at the failure of getting his hands on the medallion.Skeral and I thought that we would be able to defeat Korgumo and use the shamans to our advantage to get whatever was getting unearthed there, but we didn't know such a powerful explosion would come with the unearthing of the medallion.Our lack of information was the first step to our failure in this situation.My body continued to throb as I clutched my head, due to the lack of a full body and the destruction of cells, I was only able to scavenge ten years of memories from the ashes that I inhaled, not the full twenty-five even though we were both cannibals and I should be able to get one hundred percent of everything he had. Unfortunately, it was like eating only a part of the body and not all of it.I ignored the pain of my wrecked body as I focused o
