The Ultimate Devourer 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 Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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,
The Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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
The Ultimate Devourer 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

The 'Heroes' of the universe fall? (Finale)
(WARNING, VERY LONG CHAPTER AHEAD!) The devil's red eyes were hypnotizingly horrid as they taunted me insidiously. The way he raised his eyebrow as he kept the leaders of the alliance bay e made me know that he was slowly getting his strength back. Sooner or later, he would be able to push both of them back and kill them! His body language told it so, the facts told it so, and the two alliance leaders knew it as well, it was obvious from the perspiration that was flowing down from their foreheads that things weren't as good as they seemed on the surface. Was death that close to me? I could feel blood gurgling in my throat as the devil sent a claw through space to immediately appear in front of my throat and pierce it. However, my instincts were still as sharp as ever, so I was able to barely take a step back before the claw would fully penetrate my throat and tear it out. I glared at the offending appendage that almost ripped my throat out, but a finger snap made the insides of

Waiting for reinforcements in vain
The devil didn't have enough time to retrieve all of his fragments, thus stopping at the strength of around 24 mastered laws. However, this amount of strength was still too high for me to deal with. The two alliance leaders nodded at each other before looking at me and saying: "You have done your best, but your incompetent allies dragged you down, you can go now, there is nothing you could do in this type of fight anymore." I wanted to leave since I was given permission, but could I? The devil's red eyes targeted me immediately after he regained his bearings from being hit by the dual uppercut. "You... yes, the fragments told me about you." "You have interfered with me countless times, do you think that I will let you go that easily?!" The devil opened his mouth and started to spit flames at me, his gigantic body immediately shrunk to a smaller human-sized form as he fought back and forth with the two alliance leaders, he knew that he wouldn't be able to recover all of his frag

Despair
I could feel my hearts jump into my throat as I looked at the recovering magic circle, I failed?I clutched my chest as I growled at the encircling demons, making them take a few steps back as they understood that they were way over their heads by attempting to attack me, even though I haven't fully recovered my energy after I launched that nuke at the immobile devil fragments, the 17 laws that flowed around my body created an impenetrable shield that not many people would be able to break.The demons may be scared by me, but they were all emboldened by the fact that one of the fragments had survived and melded with the magic circle!I wasn't entirely sure what the circle was supposed to do, but it was certainly nothing good.I wanted to fly towards it and break it apart now that there was no one to protect it, but the demons that were previously scared of me started to create a wall of bodies as they tightened the encirclement around me, the morale of the alliance had already dropped

The devil makes his move
The distance between the two black difficulty planets was quite far away, so it took me ten hours of traveling at my quickest speed to reach it.This time around, this new planet was on full defensive mode, the fragment I killed must have told the other nearby awakened pieces about what I had done to him before his death.But at this point, where my strength had reached a whooping 17 laws, 4 of them being a specialization law, how could the flimsy barrier around this planet even withstand my strength?I punched forward, making the barrier crack and break without even having to find its weak spots.The demons that were on standby for defense crumbled along with the barrier from the shockwaves of my initial attack...Most of them were weaklings that didn't even learn one law, it looked like the devil only left behind cannon fodder...There were no ambushes as I dropped down on the planet, the weaklings that were dumb enough to get near me were squashed to death by my aura as I didn't ev

Organ changes
The organs of the devil fragment were certainly quite larger compared to the demons or other races that I have encountered up till now.They had a certain heavy weight to them, and I could feel that they were hard to the touch, almost like a rock.They were also in different shapes compared to the average human, or even the average humanoid specie.The heart was in a triangle shape, the lungs were square, and the liver was just like a small ball.The intestines were quite short as they seemed to have evolved for utmost efficiency in energy conversion from the stomach to the whole body.I continued to analyze the shapes of the organs before I couldn't help but be curious about their taste.I took the triangle heart with both hands since it was quite heavy and big, and I started munching on it, splattering some blood on my face.The taste was very bland, toxic even, the organs of the devil were filled with a certain poisonous substance that even bypassed the poison-proof constitution th

Test running ten laws
After comforting Shira for a bit, I could feel my hands becoming quite itchy as I felt the need to test my newly gained strength.Even though the seven laws I have plundered could be considered inferior, quantity could still be used to crush the quality opposition when it was in a high enough number.As long as my opponent had eight or below laws, I should be able to easily deal with them, as for nine and above. I had to fight someone at that level to understand my place on the strength scales a little better.I wasn't sure about the powers of the top dogs of the universe, so I had to slowly find out while messing with the devil's plans in passing.A fully awakened devil fragment who was able to get his hands on the seven sins would be equal to a normal being that had learned and mastered seven laws.He would be the perfect test partner.Fortunately, I could easily infer the location of such heavily infected planets through the alliance's medal.I was able to find out about the locati

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
