The Ultimate Devourer The stubborn wraith
I started by attacking with a feint and appearing in front of the wraith afterward, but my hands went directly through him!Shuria shook his head as he looked at me and pointed two fingers at me. I could feel three daggers being impaled in my chest as I coughed out nothing. Since we were in my mental place, there was no blood to be coughed here, but I felt that the surroundings started to shake after I had taken those spectral daggers to the chest.Which meant that my mental palace would break down if my apparition here was damaged too much, I wasn't sure if the wraith would be free if that happened, but I didn't want to find out.I concentrated on my energy and sent it to my soul as I charged an elemental ball that I threw at Shuria, only for him to snort as he taunted:"Elemental energy against an elf? Your technique lacks any finesse, it's so basic that even a 5-year-old elf would be able to do better!"He deflected the energy ball, but what he didn't expect was for a bunch of dark
The Ultimate Devourer Mind round 2
After I lost consciousness, my soul wandered for a while before Ludeus connected me with the wraith's mental space, making me appear in the same foggy place just like before.This time around, there were many cracks in the sky, and I could feel that the sun behind it was slowly poking its head out.I wasn't sure if this meant the wraith was getting weaker, or stronger.I concentrated my energy, to scan the surroundings, and I found Shuria skulking on the ground, seemingly not realizing that I have connected to his mindscape once again.He was pretty weakened, and I could feel that there was also something wrong with him, which was the best situation for me.I stealthily approached him from behind as I thrust my hand through his chest, grabbing ahold of his heart and squeezing it tightly, this should be the place where his true soul lay.However, an electric current mixed with a toxic sharp breeze hit me from the front as Shuria's neck moved until his head faced me, even though his bod
The Ultimate Devourer The Duramato continent
I nodded at Ludeus's question and said:"I have complete control over the wraith now, I have gained all of his techniques, and I'm ready to go, shall we?"Ludeus immediately created a cloud beneath our feet as we soared up through the trees in the swamp before making our way toward the Duramato continent border.The speed we used was as quick as the one that took us to the swamp, and it didn't take us more than three hours to arrive at the border.Nothing was separating the human continent from the orc's continent, mostly because the orcs never showed signs of invasion, and secondly, the humans thought that even if the orcs invaded, they didn't need to separate the continents with any defensive wall that would take tons of resources because they thought that the orcs wouldn't be strong enough to get past the defensive region which we passed the way to here.It was pretty dumb, but humans were very lax these days, the Churches warred amongst themselves, so they didn't have time to thin
The Ultimate Devourer The location of the first warchief
I snuck amidst the unconscious bodies of the drunk orcs as I made my way through their village, getting closer to the seemingly older orcs who had many battle scars on their bodies.I approached one of these old orcs and grabbed him by the head as my skin glowed a soft grey-silver and I woke him up as the wraith went to work, dominating his weakened will due to the alcohol that was running rampant through his body, making him my puppet in no more than two seconds.The elder orc did wake up, but he was still drunk,"*Hicc*, who is this? Master?"He also seemed to be slurring his words as I gave him a tight slap and created some elemental water energy that I splashed his face with, making him slightly sober as he fell onto one knee and said:"New master, good master!"His vocabulary was somewhat limited, but I understood what he was saying, when I questioned him about the whereabouts of a war chief, a scared expression overtook his face as he said:"I.. Warthog doesn't know where war ch
The Ultimate Devourer Way to infiltrate
The Snake Hunter's tribe was just in front of me. They had a giant wall made of dark stone that protected their city from the attacks of beasts, and there was also the addition of quite a lot of guards that were standing around the entrances to the city to ward off any scattered desert monstrosities that haven't been picked up by the archers which I could see were surveying the lands from the towers made above the walls.The orcs were dumb, but that didn't mean they didn't have the potential to learn, and it was obvious here that whoever created this city could be considered to be a genius among the orcs.He would be a great addition to my army here on the Duramato continent.The orcs that I subjugated aren't smart, and they would be only good to follow orders, but having more than one man that can give the orders would make the potential of my army even higher. I needed generals, not grunts.But for that to happen, I needed to infiltrate this fortress made of dark stone first.I coul
The Ultimate Devourer The Duramato continent system
The Orc was agile and knew his ins and outs in combat, but his size still made him an easier target and somewhat messed with his flexibility. Thus, I was able to capitalize on that and get ahold of his chest before ramming my head into his chin multiple times until he became dizzy. The problem was that this tall Orc finally snapped and got angry after I made his world spin around him. He roared and started trashing around, using his impressive physique to destroy the buildings around him and due to a moment of my carelessness, he even was able to hit me in the leg, slightly making it bend awkwardly, showing that the Orc's strength was very high if it was able to injure me in such a way through my tempered body's defenses. His physical strength was too high, and he was too enraged to dodge any of my attacks, but he was seemingly a mountain of a being as he took on all of my ranged attacks without flinching and started to charge toward me. I was able to dodge out of the way at the
The Ultimate Devourer Getting to work on controlling four mid-size cities
After I finished settling things and dominating the whole Snake Hunters tribe, I was ready to hit the dusty desert road once again to make my way through this continent and reach the next city.Gurkug had to stay here to protect the city from possible Orc invaders, and I didn't want to lose the city so soon, so I had to let him stay since he was the strongest combatant in the city at the moment.I transmitted a message to the small orc village that I captured that they could come to the city and settle there as they were also controlled by me, the path I had taken was already pretty bare of desert monsters, so they could take that path and arrive at the city in one piece to reinforce its guards.The village orcs weren't that strong, but there was always strength in numbers for the orcs.I left the city behind me as I took one more glance back at it before my body disappeared into the sandstorm that just started revving up in the distance.The sandstorm was quite strong as the wind att
The Ultimate Devourer Tavern Fight
The Orc's combat power was rather high as he was able to use basic swordsmanship, combined with the bodily strength of an Orc gave him quite a confidence boost against me. He was throwing small slashes all over the place, which gave me a hard time dodging in the closed space which was the tavern, the other Orcs started shouting and laughing as they continued drinking and cheering the fight on, enjoying the show.The Orc looked me up and down as he tightened the grip on his hook sword and said:"What are you? You are no Orc, fair pinkish skin, and a good-looking face."The Orc let the tip of his tongue come out as he licked his lips and said:"I will enjoy cutting that face open and eating the skin."The Orc's words attracted more cheering from the crowd behind me as I shook my head and unsheathed my blade before we met in the middle, sword against sword.The material my sword was made from was of high quality, while his sword was already rusting, so it was obvious what was going to ha

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
