The Ultimate Devourer Good triumphs against evil?
The devil immediately waved his pitchfork lightly, making the surroundings change as we were all trapped in a labyrinth that came out of the ground, splitting us up into two groups:"I might not be able to take you all at once, but what if I split you up!?"The speed of the labyrinth was too quick, so I could not get near Alliron and Aratas in time, but at least Shira was near me when it happened.Shira looked at the labyrinth ahead as she did her best to control the rampaging sins in her body, now that the devil was going all out, the sins were being empowered as they tried to rip themselves away from us so they could go back to their original master.However, would we let them go so easily?The answer was an obvious no, I slapped myself around some parts of my body, locking them up and making the escape of the sins impossible. No matter how hard they tried to batter my insides and damage my energy pool, I would not let them go!Shira steeled her gaze and mimicked my actions before s
The Ultimate Devourer The sealing process
Everyone's taut muscles started to relax slowly as the danger from the devil's presence passed by.We knew that he wasn't going to give up that easily, but for now, he retreated.Aratas and Alliron glanced at me and Shira before nodding:"It looks like you were able to easily hold him back. You two had grown considerably, maybe being even as strong as us right now!"Shira couldn't help but start blushing at the praise after she had reverted from her hybrid form.She scratched the back of her head as she twirled some of her red hair onto her fingers, very happy at the praise.I nodded slowly toward them, I thought of as much, even though the duo seemed to have been shrouded by mysteries, their strengths weren't to the point they learned and mastered laws, they were quite close, but due to the lack of opportunity, they were unable to progress to that area, but now, with the devil triggering that state in them after they had fought the rage demon to his peak ability, they were able to fi
The Ultimate Devourer Wedding crashed
I shook my mother's in law hand and kissed it afterward, she smiled sweetly at me as she looked at her daughter and said:"You didn't tell me your boyfriend is such a gentleman. Maybe I will take him for myself."Shira knew her mother was teasing her, so she huffed and put her hands under her breasts as she turned her head to the side and said:"Mother, it's not the time for that, I know that you are only acting like this because you are attempting to get over that shitty father of mine who did what he did to you."Hearing those words made Shira's mother pale slightly before turning back to her sunny disposition, she shook her head slowly and turned towards me before saying:"So when do you two want to have the wedding? We can invite all your friends and acquaintances right here, it's a pretty wide place, so it should be able to house everyone, this place is also quite secure and secret, so no one would be able to crash your wedding!"I wasn't sure if it was the man's job to plan the
The Ultimate Devourer The Alliance of Universal Regulators
Seeing how I wasn't mad, nor did I say anything about his previous attitude made Malavai quite happy as he bowed once again:"You are quite magnanimous and mature for your age, your name is Minato, right? What do you think about my proposition? You and your four friends would join our Academy, and depending on your performance, you will join our army and organization, we can discuss the details and benefits you can receive immediately!"He looked towards the gift-filled table to the side, before he flicked his wrist, throwing a small flower on top of all of them as he nodded towards me and said:"Take this as a token of apology for my previous attitude, and a gift for your wedding, once again, I'm sorry."The flower smelled intoxicatingly sweet, and I could feel a very strong wood law coming from it, if someone ingested it, they would be able to learn and quickly master up to 30% of the law that existed in the flower!It looked like these types of things existed in the Regulator's All
The Ultimate Devourer Pondering about joining
The regulators had things that I needed, and they didn't require me to do anything unless I took the missions on my own or I somehow found an infected planet.But all I had to do was report its coordinates, which wasn't anything to be wary of.Too many benefits to be taken for joining the alliance, no downsides almost, which made me frown inside.There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world, so there should be some undercurrents in the alliance that Malavai wasn't talking about for now.I looked towards the man in question as he awaited for all three of us to make up our minds.Seeing how I turned my gaze towards him, Malavai smiled as he asked:"So?"I wanted to join the regulators for the opportunities they could give me to become stronger, but things were slightly shady in my mind, my paranoia made me unable to give him a response for the time being, but I knew that I had to give it to him sooner or later, and I'm sure he wouldn't wait for more than a few days around here.
The Ultimate Devourer Travelling the planet (Part 1)
The planet where I was born.I looked at my surroundings briefly after I left Shira to her own devices.I decided to start my journey from the place I was born.The small unnamed village where my life changed sometimes around when I was 7 years old.My memories of that time were still vivid in my mind.The bandits took me and my parents out of our hiding, the bandit leader making his way to my mother, handling her how he pleased... My father's wide-eyed head flew into the skies as his body kneeled after it had its head separated...At this point, I had gone through so many things that I had forgotten about Aratas's promise about him finding my mother.Things moved so quickly, and my need to find her had gone down considerably since I had so many things to do, but now that I visited this place, I got the impulse to look for her once again.Maybe I should find her, just make myself at peace before I left the planet for good.I didn't need to interfere in her new life if she was treated
The Ultimate Devourer Travelling the planet (Part 2)
After traveling the human continent, I moved towards the second continent I have frequented quite a bit during my life on the planet.The Duramato continent.I flew high in the sky, looking down at the inhabited areas which were now filled with Orcs that worked together instead of warring against each other any time they could.The Orcs were still quite a violent bunch, but instead of fighting to the death with nearby villages, they started to have tournaments/non-lethal but pretty serious fights amongst themselves that would quench their thirst for violence.Their society was slowly taking shape, evolving slowly but surely.Seeing the orcs took me back to when I was conquering them using the domination ability, and when I fought Mandaia...One of the few severe fights I had while on the continent.I shook my head slightly as I thought about her, she was loyal to the last, and her body/skeleton was now most likely resting in the sand of the desert.I poured some energy from my body in
The Ultimate Devourer Making the decision
After everything that I experienced on my planet, it was finally time to leave it behind me.I wasn't content with what I had. I wanted more. I could live on the planet peacefully from now on, there was no one to threaten me, and I was friendly or an ally to all the important factions on the planet.However, the greed that was inside of me, the hunger, didn't let me stay here and continue my life mediocrely.Every time I slightly thought about settling down, the image of my father's head flying into the sky appeared in front of my eyes.He and my mother were content with what they had, but they were weak, they were unable to hold onto what they had, so stronger people than them took everything they had, including their lives!My mother was luckier, surviving the ordeal even though the events after that shouldn't have been easy on her.But my father died, he wasn't a religious person, so he most likely ended up becoming a small imp in the first layer of hell.Who knows what happened to

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
