Garessta

The most powerful demon of Hell reduced to a mere slug!
Thanks to his unique ability to absorb abilities of the creatures he ate, Voren became the strongest demon in Hell. But just when he was ready to relax and enjoy the luxuries he conquered, gods descended from Heaven to take him down.
One against many, Voren fought valiantly, but in the end, he was defeated. Still, the gods couldn’t break his spirit. He lost all his demonic powers, but even all of gods’ efforts couldn’t wipe out Voren’s memories—and his unique ability.
As a last attempt to destroy him, gods made Voren reincarnate as one of the lowest creatures there is—a slug. But even that won’t stop Voren from taking his immortality back and getting his revenge.
He will reach Heaven… through violence. And enjoy everything the mortal realm can offer on his way there.

Warning: contains bloody violence, crimes against animals, crimes against humans and what else you can expect from an evil protagonist.

Demonic Devourer's Development

It was easier said than done, though. The next few days showed me that as clear as day.

The lizard-cow wasn't the only one powerful monster in the surroundings. With each step I took up the stream, I met more and more of them. Some of the monsters were actually the same common beasts I've seen before—except now they were twice or thrice as fast and strong as before.

When a simple cave spider I tried to kill almost tore my head off, I realised I was deep in a place for which I was too weak. But with a reward like that shining ahead, I knew I couldn't just stop.

Every day in the vicinity of the rainbow stream already made me stronger. I found, though, that water didn't hold its magic properties for long. After a day in my flask, it would lose its glow and tingles. Besides that, after the first radical influx in power, my stats didn't rise even remotely as quickly as they did after the first time I drank the water.
