The Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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 Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer Sense of urgency
While I was resting, Skeral felt something arrive in his right horn, he clutched it for a few seconds before his eyes widened, and he looked at me before saying:"It looks like Greed and Gluttony are allying."I cocked my head to the side before asking:"Demon of Gluttony and Greed? Allying? What is there to be scared of? It isn't their time to come to the surface yet, I already talked with my ally on the human continent and I'm sure he will do his best to delay their plan as much as possible." Skeral shook his head seeing how laidback I was before mentioning:"The problem of their alliance is that it shows that they are confident enough that they will ascend sooner rather than later.""In general, demons on the 13th layer won't make alliances unless they prepare for something big! The last time an alliance was made, I got my left horn broken and I was thrown out of the 13th layer!"I looked at Skeral up and down before asking:"Which sin were you?"Skeral laughed and shook his head
The Ultimate Devourer The tricky marauder tribe easily killed
I observed something while I tried to help Skeral with the toxins in his body. The agents that they were made from were very thorough and plant-based, most likely hand-picked from the Night Elves' forest at its borders, but the main ingredient that was used to create the toxin came from a very old serpent that most likely lived at the bottom of the desert.This was a very deadly combination that I was only barely to withstand due to my tempered body and my continuous usage of poison in my training.Skeral was having a hard time not keeling over and dying right now, but as a demon, it would be quite awkward for him to die due to poison.The problem was that he was a little bit weakened on the surface compared to the time he was back in hell. The air in the living realm was completely different from the one in hell, and his constitution didn't seem to be able to adapt to the surroundings in the living realm.Combined with the toxins that were running through his veins right now, it made
The Ultimate Devourer Alliron's puzzle
After I made sure there was no one spying on us from the trees, I floated to the top of the lake and looked at the waterfall in front of me.Skeral recovered somewhat as we both thought about any way to breach the waterfall barrier and get inside. We also needed to do it quickly, or else we would have visitors from the Marauder tribe who would be wondering what had happened to their scouts.Since Alliron was doing soul experimentation during his stay on the Duramato continent, then the puzzle's answer had to do something with souls. It was only logical.But what should we do with our souls to enter the place behind the waterfall?I looked at Skeral and thought for a few seconds more before I told him my idea:"Since Demons are made out of pure soul energy that is corrupted by sins, do you think you can shed your physical body and return to the pure state where you are only a soul? If my guess is correct, I think only soul bodies should be able to pass this waterfall."Skeral glanced a
The Ultimate Devourer The Lightning Chasers' plans (Part 1)
My speed had increased to the maximum as I tried to stop the Orc from retrieving whatever was inside his satchel, my speed increase surprised the Night Elves who were wondering what I was doing, but when they saw my urgency and the fact that the strongest Orc was trying to take something out of his drake-skin satchel, they quickly connected the dots.My speed was high enough, so I was able to slap the Orc's hand away from his satchel before he could open it. Then I tried to take it away from him by ripping the cord that was used to tie the satchel around his shoulder.However, the cord was surprisingly tough and flexible, making me unable to rip it apart quickly enough as I jumped backward to avoid the rusty sword that the Orc had swung at me after I had slapped his hand away from the satchel.Even though there were no runs on the sword, I could feel a powerful presence residing in it, which made me not want to get slashed regardless of how dull and rusty it seemed to be on the surfac
