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

After the dust from the fight settled, the bugmen took their game away. I was tempted to follow them to their lair or settlement, but I didn't dare to risk it. I didn't like at all how their antennas twitched when they got closer to me, and at one moment I was sure one of them spotted me… but no.

But the stronger and brighter the water in the stream was, the more powerful the monsters, the closer I got to the source, and it boosted my spirits even when my stomach gnawed at me to feed it with something better than wood lice. Or were they mushroom lice if I found them near mushrooms?

I ate mushrooms too. At least I didn't have to care if they were poisonous or not—I would digest anything. It was another question if I would gain anything from what I ate, or I could've just ate stones and be happy with it. There was, after all, no shortage of stones around.
