Panda Novel

Roy walked backward. He had to guard against the possibility of Araniya jumping across the river.

However, he later realized that he was thinking too much. Araniya was now in unbearable pain and had no strength to pursue Roy. She could only watch him leave while hissing angrily at him.

Demons were experts at playing with souls. The more they played with them, the more they understood them. They could use certain means to separate a portion of their soul without damaging their main soul. Soul fragments were created in this way. These soul fragments could live on inside living creatures like parasites, and since the soul fragments had the demon's aura, they could naturally turn ordinary creatures into monsters.

2The demons usually used these monsters with the soul fragments to help them capture prey or to fight. All of their perceptions would be sent back to the demon. The more soul fragments they separated out meant that there were more nodes and stronger perception. This was a special 'soul network'!

In this sense, demons were also creatures who liked to 'surf the internet'…

1In addition to being stored in living bodies, the soul fragments could also be stored in certain items. These items were generally called demon creations or demon items, and these items often had some very special functions…

However, the separation of soul fragments was not without side effects. Once these soul fragments were swallowed or purified by others, it would cause severe damage to the main soul. It was also possible to obtain the true name of the demon from the soul fragments through special means.

Any damage to the soul might cause the collapse of a demon's mental state, their magic energy to dissipate, and so on, causing the demon's strength to drop significantly. Roy used up about fifty of Araniya's soul fragments to materialize his demon wings. This was a severe injury to her. It was already a feat for Araniya not to go crazy on the spot, so how could she still possess the energy to jump across the river to kill him?

He was now the biggest enemy to Araniya…

Of course, Roy had yet to understand much of the Demon World, so he did not understand the gravity of what he did. After leaving the riverbank, he was still feeling a little depressed.

What happened to driving out the bad neighbor? Why am I the one being driven away instead?

It was truly 'completely unexpected'. Murphy of Murphy's Law is still with me in spirit after transmigration!

14I definitely can't return to my cave for the time being. At least not before I find a way to kill Araniya.

Unfortunately, a cave like that was quite difficult to find. Fortunately, Roy had already made up his mind to explore the underground world leisurely. His schedule was only moved ahead now, so he was not depressed for too long.

As such, Roy chose a direction and started moving forward.

He began his hunt for prey. After being hunted down by Spider Queen Araniya, Roy realized that there could be all kinds of accidents in this unknown world. If he was not careful enough and smart enough, he might lose his life. Therefore, the best way was to store some souls as a reserve so that he had room to navigate during emergencies.

Thus, while traveling, Roy hunted down the monsters he could win against and obtained their souls.

A month passed by in this way, and Roy could make some conclusions about certain things.

Perhaps it was as what Araniya had said. The more powerful demons stayed in the lower levels of the Abyss, while those on the upper level were basically all low-rank demons!

Fighting and hunting were the mainstay of this world. Demons hunted monsters and also their own kind. Similarly, monsters not only hunted their own kind, but they also hunted demons. This was because there was a possibility for monsters to turn into demons!

Monsters could accumulate demonic aura through devouring demons, and they could transform into demons themselves once they had enough demonic aura.

This also explained why the low-rank demons had such strange shapes and complicated bloodlines.

It was precisely because of this rule that some fierce and powerful monsters loved to hunt little demons like Roy. Roy saw a little demon about his size being caught by a huge bird-shaped monster swooping down from the sky. It was then gobbled up by the monster head first and even struggled as it moved along the monster's throat…

This scene made Roy's heart turn cold. It also made him understand that if he did not mature quickly, he might be eaten like this one day!

The pressure and urgency of survival made Roy realize that he was becoming more and more cold-blooded in his hunts. He did not even flinch when killing his kind now.

2Roy could not kill the monsters and demons that were too powerful, but Roy could now kill opponents at the same rank as him with ease because of his special tail. Regardless of whether it was a sneak attack or an open attack, the tail's killing efficiency greatly benefited Roy.

6The first thing Roy did after acquiring enough souls was to modify his demon wings.

He increased the size of its wingspan, and the demon wings now had a wingspan of two meters after extending. After finding that its carrying capacity was sufficient, Roy also changed the attribute of Glide to Flight!

6Now, he could finally take off by flapping his wings and fly freely in the air. The only thing that was lacking was his speed.

Therefore, Roy had already thought of the next part of his modification plan for the demon wings—adding the attribute of High-Speed Flight.

3After being able to fly, Roy's hunting range became much larger, and he could now fight the flying monsters and demons.

As time passed, Roy's range of exploration also continued to expand. However, he had actually only reached about one hundred kilometers away from the cave he had lived in. During this period, his experience with hunting made him discover something that puzzled him.

He realized that all creatures living in the upper level of the Abyss, be it monsters or demons, basically used only their bodies to fight. Although some used venoms or acids, these methods were only products of their own bodies. There were only two conditions to judge the strength of these demons and monsters: one was their body type, and the other was the size of their muscles.

This sort of physical fighting method seemed very exciting, but it also puzzled Roy to no end.

What about magic? Why are there no demons fighting with magic?
