Healing time
The healing process was slow and painful, the stretched-out body could barely patch itself up after it had been pushed so far due to the law fusions.My eyes had already gone back into their sockets, but my broken skin, bones, and organs still had a hard time recovering from their shattered states.The pain made me unable to concentrate on anything, the reconstruction of my body was so painful that it made me want to scream. However, my throat was out, and I didn't have any more control of my body at the moment, so I couldn't even scream.It was quite a shit experience, and the time passed so damn slowly when I was hurt, I couldn't do anything in this situation, well, there was one thing actually... but it would leave my body vulnerable.I could remove my soul from the body and let it recover on its own, but it would most likely slow the recovery speed considerably, and while Shira could guard it, I didn't believe that Shira would be able to protect it properly.I sighed softly inside

Slower law comprehension
Now that my body was fully recovered, I talked with Shira a bit before sitting back on the throne.I wasn't sure when the next invasion would happen, but until then, I could train the poison law that I just learned.I took out some items that I stored in my clothes, starting with a low-level law item. It was a small needle-shaped substance that smelled acrid and putrid, it was very soft to the touch to the point you wouldn't realize you held something in your hands if you didn't see it.The contents of this item were toxins of very high efficiency that I immediately absorbed into my body, where the juvenile poison law that I just learned started to devour them, while I analyzed the contents of the poison and memorized them, getting a deeper understanding of the poison law as it ran its course through my body.The power of poisons was one of the weaker ones among the laws as people that have mastered it would become immune to poisons, which meant that if two poison law users met, they

The wind palace master and the start of the fight
I and Shira glanced at each other. We would be monumentally weakened the moment we got too far from the Ice Palace as we would be unable to make use of its barrier.We should be able to fight Mu Chen off if we put our strengths together if he ever tried something funny during our journey.But he also had some strong underlings behind him, some of them even as strong as us without the boost of the barrier.I moved my eyes to meet Mu Chen's gaze before saying:"If you want our help I would like you to swear an oath to not attack us for at least one month after we get rid of the devil fragment."Mu Chen easily accepted the condition, not even bothering to ask for an oath back as he knew that we might be able to fight him back if he attacked, but we wouldn't be able to keep him if he tried to escape, so he didn't need the guarantee from the oath.As for the underlings below him? They would all be pretty harmless if they didn't get the help of the big boss.I let out a small sigh as I shoo

Fighting on two fronts
Shira and I were able to hold up our front in the face of the relentless attack from the demon elites.All of them had different elemental laws that they were able to combine, but they weren't on good terms with each other, they fought alone, making it easier for me and Shira to be able to counter and even kill them swiftly as we fought as one.Our experience fighting together gave us a pretty obvious edge against the demons, and they understood it perfectly as the fight continued. However, they were unable to mimic our ability by suddenly starting to fight together, they were unable to concentrate properly and mix their elemental attacks, some of them canceling each other as they couldn't get the perfect balance that would result in an explosive attack that was double or even triple its normal strength.The thousands of demons that were encircling us were beginning to dwindle, but their numbers were still huge considering our allies were barely a few hundred.They were all elites of

Sins and world item
The devil wasn't bothered in the least that his 'subordinate' had all been annihilated. He was more annoyed by the gaping hole in his chest as he attempted his best to close it.There was a frown on his pale face as his red eyes wandered amongst the people that were ready to attack him.Shai Kun was already fusing a few laws, creating an attack similar to the arrow I and Shira made, he wanted to get rid of the devil in one fell swoop!The devil knew that he would be unable to survive an attack from someone who had 4 mastered laws without using a few meat shields, unfortunately, all of his available meat shields had already expired!He looked down at the floating pitchfork as he attempted to summon it back to his side, but Shai Kun didn't let him, he appeared in front of him and he placed both of his fists on the slowly closing hole in the devil's chest before a grunt left his lips as a shockwave exploded from both of his fists at once.The attack came with a burst of wind, lightning,

Schemes
We stopped fighting the water world item as it rushed towards the disappearing Mu Chen and his fellows.It looked like they were attempting to get rid of Shai Kun so he could stabilize the position of the Fire Palace as the first organization in the eastern part of the galaxy.Considering how full of schemes the people in this area were, Shai Kun should have thought about such a thing happening, yet he still darted into the hell dimension after the devil...What was he after?I shook my head slowly as I thought about those things, the wind palace people had gone after Mu Chen to stop him from destroying the planet and entombing their patriarch, but they were a little bit weaker compared to Mu Chen's group as they didn't have a person who mastered almost four laws amongst them.Mu Chen and his people should be able to win after a short fight.Of course, there was still the water world item, that would most likely work with the wind palace people now.An unlikely alliance, but since bot

Hanzo comes out of seclusion
Our return was quicker than when we left, especially since we had a murderous and unstable person who had the equivalent strength of 5 laws behind us.I and Shira immediately opened the door of the Ice Palace and slipped inside, sighing heavily as we couldn't help but look back, thinking that we would see the changed Shai Kun storm the palace under his maddened state.Fortunately, no such thing happened.It seemed like we were worrying over nothing, or maybe we were making assumptions, Shai Kun shouldn't be dumb enough to absorb the sins without a backup plan to control them, right?Well, for now, all we could do was defend this area from any threats.I checked the vibrating medal I took out of my clothes and saw that we had successfully finished the dark red mission and were awarded 16,000 points.By now we had enough points to buy a middle-level world item fragment, but did we need it?Considering how many items there were in the treasury to which we had access, the paltry exchange

Shira's changes
Shira seemed to be the same, but also quite different at the same time, almost as if she was a familiar person that I haven't seen in a long while that changed so much that she was almost unrecognizable, but I would still know her because of small things, like her voice, her face, etc...Shira took my hand into hers, it was cold, very cold, it looked like she had entirely changed from her previous fire-based nature to an ice one, such a drastic shift... it should have been really painful and deadly for her.And she didn't even come to me even once when she thought about doing such a thing, was she thinking for my sake, or did she think that I would dissuade her from doing such a perilous experiment?I hugged her tightly, and she hugged me back, while her appearance and demeanor had small changes, her personality seemed to be the same.Shira giggled lightly as she broke off the hug and said:"Oww, you were worried about me?"I nodded lightly at her question and asked with a little worr

Concrete theories about the time law
With the usage of a few bribes and some 'honeyed words' I was able to immediately regain control over the organization.I sat in the control room of the barrier as I made some adjustments to it, slowly incorporating the runes and other features that I have been able to master during the time I have been controlling the Ice Palace's barrier.This place needed an upgrade, and all I had to do was change a few things on the medium to make those changes, no extra materials were needed! Quite convenient.I had to fill my time with something while my underlings were doing their best to find out the things that I inquired about.Surprisingly, this academy had a library with quite a lot of books filled with neat tidbits of information. However, during my time in the academy, I didn't seem to be able to find such a library, even though I had visited most of the corridors and other important rooms of the academy...Quite strange...I even asked Shira if she knew that the academy had a library, b

Researching the devouring ability
After we left the vacation planet, we started to attack low-level corrupted planets that had a few law-wielding demons.The experimentation started from there.I started by dissecting the demons and seeing how the laws were embedded in their bodies after they have mastered them.I have attempted to learn from introspection, but I could not properly see all angles inside my body, and some places were obscured for some reason.Now, by dissecting these weaker demons, I was able to infer how the laws would settle in the body, and by extension, I might be able to learn how I could apply the devouring ability to strip them of their laws and make them mine.From what I found out, the first law would settle near the heart in the form of the element that was comprehended.The second would go onto one lung, the third on the other...Atleast that's what I thought it would go like considering that I was only able to slay and dissect demons that wielded up to 2 laws.I was able to somewhat see the
