The Ultimate Devourer Gluttony unleashed
Darnioz's ever-increasing body was getting to be a problem, even Alliron and Aratas could barely keep their material forms together as the suction force from Darnioz's body was getting stronger and stronger.Fortunately, the pride and sloth sins hadn't left my grasp after I have crushed the Goat head into minced meat.They were struggling out of my grasp, trying to fly towards Darnioz, seemingly wanting to combine with the other two sins that were existing in his body.But would I let that happen?I shook my head, I looked at the sins and started to crush them in my hands. Unfortunately, there was no effect no matter how much strength or energy I poured into my attempt.I wasn't at the level of strength where I could destroy the accumulated thoughts and feelings of so many people.These sins were powered by the existence of the people on the surface, and they would get stronger accordingly to the actions and thoughts of the aforementioned people.Greed and sloth were two sins that wer
The Ultimate Devourer Wrath, pride, and envy
The portal shimmered as three people left it. The first and foremost person was an oni-person with red skin and two muscle-like horns growing out of the sides of his head. He had giant stature of 3+ meters, bulging muscles all over his body, and different types of tattoos, the most glaring one being the decapitated dragon tatoo on his exposed shoulder. He was wearing a white tank top stained with blood that left us to see all of his tattoos and short tattered pants that didn't cover even his knees. His green emerald eyes were trained upon Alliron and Aratas the moment he entered, not even bothering to look at Shira and me, seemingly sensing that Alliron and Aratas were the stronger ones, even though no energy fluctuations came out of their bodies to betray their strength. The 2nd person to enter was a 1,80 tall humanoid with slicked-back green hair that reached his shoulders, his face was the epitome of annoyingness considering how smug he looked, and he had two katanas tied to his
The Ultimate Devourer Battling on three sides
Shira's fighting abilities increased continuously as she fought the pride demon, but there was something weird about him, no matter how better Shira got, there was no sweat on his brow, and his expression remained the same, making him look like he was fully in control of the fight, even though Shira started to land blows on his body using her hybrid form.It was certainly quite strange, especially since the pride demon even decided to sheathe his katanas once again.Shira wasn't sure if he was getting stronger at the same time as she was.So she decided to end the fight between the two of them in one sure strike that would kill the demon instantly!Shira's flaming body flickered constantly as she continuously improved and added new experiences to her fighting style.She even started to change her hybrid transformation, sometimes flicking back to human limbs or phoenix wings to combine certain attacks that enhanced her power and unpredictability.Things seemed to look good for her, but
The Ultimate Devourer The power of controlled rage
The oni demon couldn't stretch his head to look at the situation of his allies, but he could sense that their auras had disappeared.The lack of sins that should have converged on his body made the blood vessels on his forehead pop up as the steadily increasing anger in his mind fully exploded at once!His muscles tripled in size as his body grew alongside them to support the new weight.The tattoos on his life were becoming more and more life-like, while Alliron and Aratas couldn't help but look at each other and nod.Now that the other two fights had been finished, they could go full power without the worry of the sins of the other two flying towards the oni demon and powering him up.Alliron stretched his body like a cat would, before the aura around his body changed entirely.Bloody mirages covered his whole body, showing decapitated bodies, sewn corpses to create chimeras and amalgamations of beings, bloody cadavers with missing organs, and many other scientifical experiments tha
The Ultimate Devourer Anger incarnate
The wrath demon was unable to block or dodge the attacks that boxed him in.Aratas's spear made its way between the Oni's legs, hitting him there directly, making him keel in pain as Alliron hit him over the head with a blood hammer from above!I clutched my chest as I felt my new three hearts beating at a rhythm that was in tune with the surroundings.It was almost as if all the previous tortures didn't apply to me anymore as I felt the breath that I took in was rather sweet.No more attacks from the surroundings were being put onto my body and mind, and I could feel that my soul had finally reached a full sin cleansing!I looked down at my hands while everything around me turned to a standstill.Shira was captured in a pose where she was striking the demon's back with her claws, ready to rip out his flesh.While Alliron was now wielding double hammers in his hands, trying to bash in the demon's head with them, just as if he was playing the drum.Lastly, Aratas was focusing on the de
The Ultimate Devourer 7 sins gathered
While Alliron was making sure to be out of the beast's sensing area so it wouldn't change its targets, I was fighting it head-on!The wrath beast's attacks were scarring my very being, making my skeleton shudder as the power of the strikes were slowly crippling my body.Every attack I forcefully withstood made cracks appear all over my skin, my muscles cried out as they deflated, and the energy in my body was thrown in disarray.It was pure torture, something even worse than the previous tortures of hell combined.Especially since it was oh so slow, I couldn't help but glance at Alliron, hoping that his astral bow was ready for shooting, but I could see that he barely only made the base of the bow. He still needed the string and arrows!I clenched my fists as the beast socked me directly in the jaw, dislocating it entirely.I glared at the beast with my swollen eyes as I put my jaw back into its place and barely dodged another attack that would have taken my head cleanly off my should
The Ultimate Devourer The sins act up
My head was swimming as my eyes were closed while I was resting, I could hear the rough breathing of the nearby Alliron, and I could also feel that Shira was getting closer to my location before sitting just right next to me.I didn't open my eyes as I felt her hand on my forehead, she was giving me a gentle supply of energy to help me with my recovery.I nodded slightly at her action, most likely making her smile.My torn muscles and cracked bones were slowly mending without any immediate threat to break them anymore, the energy pool inside my body was slowly recovering, transforming into a calm ocean that regained its peace after a tumultuous storm.The 9th layer was supposed to have even further tortures for us, but hell understood our situations and had stopped all tortures from affecting us, we were being 'pardoned' for helping it.Of course, the remaining demons who were still alive were most likely going through beatings from the law enforcers combined with the tortures of the
The Ultimate Devourer The master of hell
After tasting despair, I could feel that the surrounding air had become completely cold, as I breathed in and out, I could see my breath create large clouds of mist that didn't dissipate for a short time.Everyone else was looking at the giant pupil that was previously the blood-red moon.The pupil was looking down at us, moving its iris from side to side, analyzing all of us slowly.Before we knew what happened, a thunderous crack was heard in the surroundings, and a slide appeared up from the eye.The eye opened up in the middle, revealing a rather short furry creature.Its fur was completely black, he had bright red eyes and yellow pupils, and he was going down the slide at quick speeds, approaching us.Alliron and Aratas looked at each other as they nodded, while I and Shira kept close to each other, making sure that we were suppressing the jumping sins we had jailed in our bodies.The closer this being was to us, the more we felt the sins in our bodies trying to break free.It wa

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
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
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
