Through the Acid

As Martin sees the snake, he begins to blasts it with as it wounds the snake's face which is quite large by the looks of its size.

" Whoa ... this snake is big !! " Martin says as he looks at the snake's body by seeing the tree above.

By seeing that, Martin then jumps above in order to see if there's another one that is inside that tree branch which he finds out that there's only one, which gives him a smile on his face.

"( Good !!! )"

"( For now my problem is only one !!! )" he says as he looks at the snake as it attacks him which Martin then without thinking further then decides to do the only plan possible to destroy a giant monster which is.

"( Now get in into its mouth !!! ) " Martin says as he lets himself to the snake's mouth as he then holds the snake's inner tongue as he then unleashes his might there.

"( Now Martin, unleash it now !!!! )" he says as he unleashes a powerful might of as he destroys the snake's brain, destroying its head as it then lies on the ground which makes his monster's army shocked to see that.

After he defeated it, Martin then begins to crawl outside as he then looks at his monsters inside the cave's mouth as he then waves at them in order to tell them that he's alright he then climbs the tree in order to take all of its leaves as he then returns to his monsters by bringing all the leaves as then asks Veliona to make a suit for them with her [Soothing] ability as she does that while possessing him.

" The suit is ready and it seems that my soothing helps the leaf to cover your body," Veliona says she creates the Leaf's suit in order to protect all of them from the acid rains as they then try to embark on a journey to the top of the mountains as Veliona tells Martin that the Snake earlier was quite different as she tells him that even though that the snake is weak, she senses that the snake is different somehow from the other Demonic Monsters since she felt that the snake is not actually alive.

" Not actually alive ..., what do you mean? " Martin asks her as her mouth shows in his cheek (like Sukuna, WTH) telling him that Martin should be careful since she fears that he might have fought with a powerful Deviant that she could probably not be able to fight with.

" Hey hey, are you saying that I should do all the work again, this is a Deviant we're talking about !!!?? "

" Yes Martin, I know don't worry even if I have to rest your Regeneration will always save you ... "

" So what !!!?? the last time I fight a Deviant it almost makes me dead many times if not for my Metagene's reactivation at that point. " Martin says as he remembers the fight with Oberon which he says that he is only lucky to able to survive his attacks that is very deadly since he can absorb the opponents' Mana too.

" Don't worry, if you think that your Mana will be drained again then rejoice since that Deviant Oberon is the last Deviant you met that has the ability to Drain a being's Mana. " Veliona explains to him as she reassures that there is no other Deviant in the Universe that can absorb Mana as critical as Oberon.

" But the problem is the Deviant whom I think the one that owns this Territory .." Veliona tells him as she reveals that she realizes the snake earlier was being controlled since she saw a little worm in its head which Martin didn't see as he was focused on fighting the snake back then.

" A worm, on the snake's head? " Martin asks her as he then climbs a large rock with his army in order to go to the other destination.

" Yes, don't you even see it, the worm that is on the snake's head is a [Deviant Worm], a worm creation that belongs to a certain Leech Deviant I know. " Veliona says as she then tells Martin to go to the nearest cave as he and his monster army then camp inside it in order for Veliona to explain the things she found while in the recent journey.

" Based on what I see using your eyes and body, I analyzed that the snake and the monsters you all faced in this area are all undead beings that were killed by that parasite worm like the one on the giant snake's head. " Veliona tells Martin and the monster's army since she's the one who tamed them using her magic.

As she tells them everything, she begins to order them to go out again since the acid rain is getting calm as the rain becomes a drizzle which gives Martin and his army to go out in order to find more food as they stumbled upon some Lizard like monsters which Martin and the armies decided to attack too but at that moment, Veliona forbade them from eating the monsters just yet as she orders Martin to step back as she possesses his body as she wants to see the monsters before they can eat them as she sees that the monster is filled with a worm with she then uses her ability to blast them out first as she blasts the corpse of the monsters, destroying them all completely in order to make sure they all clean from the worms.

As she does that, she then tells everyone that if they want to eat then for now they should the fruit in the trees despite some of them being carnivores as she tells them to do so even though it was hard rather than them being corrupted by the other Deviant's familiar for now.

While she says that, Veliona (using Martin's body) then looks in every direction as she swears that she sensed something, something cold as she then increases her hearing as she heard that voice is crumbling from the ground as she orders the monsters to scatter as from the ground comes out a giant worm-like creature with a Skull-like Deviant riding it.

" Well well, .. if it isn't our beloved Deviant lady Veliona ....? " the Skull Deviant calls Veliona.
