Day 01
woke up as an caterpillar like creature and began to eat leaves and vines that i found had a poison effect hoping that by doing so i would evolve into a poison variant creature.
bug creatures like caterpillars and worms seem to gain levels through eating so i ingested enough to make myself sick several times over.
finally i puleed all the poisonous plant material i didnt eat and blocked off a hole in a tree that i decided to sleep in.
Day 02
i woke up feeling incredibly strong having made it to level 89 in one day, every other caterpillar in my pod is only level 20 or so.
i continued on my path of eating only poisonous plants and finally i made it to level 100, but then something strange happened as i continued to eat, i gained more and more levels.
by the end of the day i had made it to level 143 and i was easily 5 times bigger than my siblings. that night i gathered up as much of the poison plants as i could and holed myself up again.
that night as i slept i got exactly what i was hoping for, a variant evolution to a posion moth species. obviously i chose it and went to sleep hoping to wake up the next day.
Day 03
i didnt wake up today as i was hoping but something strange did happen which i was aware of, my level which when i woke up was 43 started to drop as i seemed to get bigger and the poison i could feel became more deadly.
by the end of the day i was back to level 1 and i was 3 times bigger that an average moth.
Day 04
as i woke up today i felt amazing, my poison was strong enough that just by breathing on the tree it started to rot, i immediately left and hunted down as many poisonous plants that i hadnt eaten yet.
i gained 60 levels today but then on my way back i found a scorpion creature fighting off a multitude of ant creatures, the scorpion was losing but was still putting up a great fight.
i decided to get involved and boy did i, making a low pass over the back of the scorpion i let loose my poison dust from my wings and my poisonous breath on all the ants and the scorpion.
the ants decided to retreat and leave their dead while the scorpion and i faced off, i flew above him letting my poison dust do the work. after he died i picked him up by the tail and flew him to my hidey hole and feasted.
after eating the scorpion i could feel my posion becomming even stronger and my level went all the way to 97. if i followed the tradition of gaining more levels on top of what i need then i might just become a really powerful variant.
Day 05
today i decided to hunt poisonous creatures instead of plants, killing spiders without getting caught in their webs was difficult but so rewarding, my poison became so much stronger and my level flew all the way to 166.
i decided however not to evolve just yet first i would gather as much poisonous plants together then i would return to my lair and feast not sleeping until i hit level 200.
luckily i found and caught some more poisonous spiders and scorpions today as well. that night my level went 200 before i became too tired.
the notification this time asked if i wanted to continue as a poison moth or become an extinct venom variant, i of course chose to become the venom demon moth variant.
Day 06
i grew to become 3 times bigger than before, just so you know i was 10 inches long as a caterpillar and then i was 16 inches as a moth, now im 48 inches just about 4 feet.
my hidey hole has become way to small for me to stay in anymore, this time i decide to start hunting some of the bigger creatures in the area such as the poisonous snakes and frogs around.
gaining levels today was a lot slower since i only hunted much bigger game, my level only went to 42.
Day 07
i have decided that today i was going to evolve no matter what, first i needed to find a powerful beast to fight and kill then i would feast upon it until it was time to evlove.
this was trickier than i hoped as it turned out that there were not many such creatures around, finally i found it a powerful hind bear, this creature would surely kill me with a single strike if i was unlucky.
much like with the scorpion i simply poisoned it from the air and let it weaken before i moved in to hit it with my new stinger, by doing this i would directly inject my most powerful poison directly into it.
the bear took a long time to die but by killing it i reached level 105, after gorging on its flesh for the rest of the day my level had reached 177.
that night my evolution was set in stone and couldnt be changed, this night i would become and demon venom moth half-lord species. i hoped beyond hope that i would finally gain a humanoid appearance.
Day 08
waking up in the form of a purple haired milky white skinned humanoid was so much more than i had been hoping for. it was like being reborn once again and feeling like you became more than you thought possible. it was glorious.
i was easily 6 foot and maybe an ich or some centimeters, i used my newfound limbs to find a nice rock and i made myself a razor sharp cutting tool from it after chipping a piece off, after that i cut the hind bears fur to cloth myself.
it was a little strange to be walking like a human again, especially when i can feel that with only a twitch of a muscle ill be able to spread my wings and fly off if i chose to.
i finished off the rest of the bear but this time my level didnt rise, i guess i just need to kill creatures now instead.
oh i almost forgot, when i woke up i had a notification that told me i had the protection and blessing of the greater god of poison, i also felt a wellspring of energy just waiting to be used and when i made contact with it gained magic.
my spell were pretty powerful in my opinion, my first spell was acid javeline which throws a corrosive bolt of acid at my target, i also had a venom version of the same spell.
my second level spell was acid and poison rain which covered a 500 foot radius centered around me.
going hunting in this form was a challenge as i hadnt gotten quite used to it yet, only being equipped with a flint tipped spear and a flint cutting edge with a small wooden stick as a handle for ease of use.
this day i only managed to kill a single horned rabbit which managed to impale my left leg as i was walking, luckily i had grabbed its horn that was speared through my leg to keep it from moving, killing it then was easy.
my level only went up by one today which sucked but i did heal extremely fast from having my leg impaled so that was cool, after that i decided to have my poison dust always around me to act as a barrier of sorts.
Day 09
today with my new horn tipped spear i managed to kill myself a number of armored tanuki and vipers which got my level up quite a bit to level 23, one thing i discovered is that i now have retractable arm stingers that i can use.
the poison i inject from my new stingers is so strong that even night vipes cant handle it, and they are largley immune to poison.
Day 10
today i hunted and killed 11 hind bears which finally got me to level 100 and would mean a sweet evolution for me tonight.
after killing the bears i decided to do something smart and found some minions in the form of some local orcs i had been hunting before the bears caught my eyes.
i forced them to carry the bears back to their base and then i killed and ate their chief subjugating the rest of them with the promise to take care of them, they skinned the bears and stored the meats while making me some clothes.
i also ordered them to make me a new weapon, i decided that i wanted a halberd with a spear point axe head and back hook.
after that i informed them that i would be evolving that night and that with my strength and their numbers we would rule the entire forest and subjugate everything we found.
my evoltion that night was magnificent, i didnt just become a lord i became an extinct Demon venom moth High lord.
Day 11
i felt dozens of times stronger than i did before, my magic was fit to overbursting and i had gained another greater gods blessing and protection, that of the greater god of strength, and even the demigod of war gave his blessing.
i decided that as orcs are stupid and nasty smelling i wouldnt focus on them as my main troops, no for that i would be focusing on the much more versatile goblins, it didnt hurt that some goblin species become fairly pretty.
after donning my new bear skin jacket, pants and being given an all new iron halberd, the halberd was fairly well made even though it was only made of iron, with my new weapon and outfit i went looking for my new troops.
i decided not to arrive empty handed and caught about 30 horn rabbits to entice my new little minions, finding one of the 50 goblin tribes was fairly easy, this one was even impressive having a crude palisade to protect them.
when i arrived they sounded the alarm and 30 goblins came streaming out of small spaces between the wooden logs and began surrounding me, i decided to wait till a leader showed itself before i cowed the little fellas.
the leader was a hobgoblin that demanded to know who i was and why i came into their territory, i unleashed my acid javeline spell which created 20 spears of acid and detroyed most of their precious palisade.
after that i flew over and grabbed the offensive little shit who dared stand higher than i and spoke down to the great me, Wow my high lord side really doesnt like being talked down to.
i informed the goblins that i was looking for new troops to join me, that those who did would recieve new weapons, armor and would be able to eat all they could get their hands on.
i also told them that as a sign of things to come i had brought them a snack and dragged a string of 30 rabbits out of the woods for them to enjoy, all told being swarmed by 170 goblins cheering for meat was a different experience.
in the end all the goblins decided to join me and packed up their belongings and broodmares for the journey to the orcs quarry, i say quarry because thats what it was, they only found a iron vein nearby so it wasnt a mine.
as we traveled i ate the sad excuse for a leader they had before my glorious self, i didnt even know i had killed the bugger when i grabbed him, i had been so mad i snapped the idiots neck.
making it back to the quarry with 170 extra goblins was a chore but luckily i was strong enough to kill the pack of dire wolves that tried to eat my new minions, thatll show those losers whose king of the forest.
with a good 20 wolves being carried by my new minions i walked into the quarry a conquering hero, a feast was held mostly being made up of bear and wolf meat.
Day 12
today i organized the troops and got them training, the goblins were performing strengthening excercises that would get them up to snuff, i also had them drill with wooden spears, swords and shields i had the orcs make overnight.
the orc miners and smiths were busy, i had the miners focus on digging out the iron ore vein they had found to equip our new soldiers eventually, the smiths were focused on making weapons today, all told the vein was played out that day.
we still had more than enough to make all the swords and spear points we would need but would have nothing left for armor, so i decided that the next day we would begin making a fort from the quarried stones.
the work would be slow as the orcs would have to do most of the work themselves and their were only 50 of them total, i decided to focus on hunting myself the next day as we would run out of food otherwise and i could use the levels.
Day 13
today i started the goblins training and warned them that if they slacked off they would eat only dirt that day, after informing the orc miners what to do i left to hunt.
today i ventured out and found myself at a nice river with plenty of fish and surprisingly a buttload of lizardfolk, i was ambushed by about 20 which were equipped with only bone clubs and spears.
still they were no match for my great strength, wow i had really become arrogant after becomming a high lord, after the slaughter of lizardfolk i forced the only survivor to take me to his camp.
89 lizardfolk were subjugated that day, lucky me they eat their own kind as well as other meats they hunt, i left the lizardfolk here with there dead hunters since my fort wasnt ready yet.
i did tell them that they owed me their allegiance and that if they betrayed me i would slaughter them to the last and eat their eggs for breakfast killing their tribe for ever more.
i kept hunting for the day and eventually came back with several three horn horses pulling pallets of meat behind them, i had killed 12 horses 40 rabbits 20 tanuki and finally 3 more bears.
the horses were not to be harmed as they would hemp with hauling heavy stone to the eventual fort site, after todays successful hunt i had become level 40, still a ways away from the next evolution but i was getting closer.
Day 14
today i continued the goblins training and even added onto it with the addition of learning how to count past ten and read some runes i made for them, it was english lettering, that night i went hunting for a powerful foe.
finding this powerful foe was not easy, instead of finding one powerful enemy i found an large group of humans at the east edge of the forest and decided to follow them to their village and then slaughter them all except the women.
it turns out i may have bitten off more than i wanted as their was over 700 humans in the town, the walls were no trouble as i just flew over them, the trouble came from a group of adventurers that decided to fight me to the death.
they were tough and fought together extremely well but i was a God amongst these puny mortals and i would not be stopped, i killed them one by one until none remained, after that slaughtering the town was simple.
i did keep most of the women alive, at least those between the ages of 20-35 or so, my human morals seemed to have vanished after i evolved into a demon and even more so a demon high lord.
the women i herded into the forest and into the quarry where my goblins and orcs cheered, the orcs because they love the taste of human meat and the goblins because they were horny bastards.
i informed them that any of the women with a good skill were off limits and that i would decide who got to enjoy them based on their accomplishments, many of the goblins didnt like that and complained so i showed them whose boss.
i challenged them to fight me together and i beat them into the dirt, after that i squared the women away in the cave and appointed 6 of the orc warriors to protect them at night, i made sure to learn what they jobs they had.
i had brought 140 women with me, 120 had the farmer job and were mostly useless to me as we didnt farm but i decided that 30 of the farmers would be put to use as gatherers for us while the rest were for breeding.
the 20 other women had crafting and cooking jobs so i put them to work at what they were good for, none of the orcs or goblins were brave enough to disobey me after my earlier display.
that night after having reached level 100 i evolved once again, this time my evolution was into a greater demon high lord, i didnt change my species as a venom moth i just became much stronger.
Day 15
waking up as a greater demon was intoxicating, my power had grown so much that i was sure i could fight off an entire army on my own, that day i gave the goblins a chance to earn their keep and sent them out hunting.
i had also gained the protection and blessing of the greater god of war replacing the demigod of war blessing and protection i had gained earlier.
of the 130 goblins that were my soldiers i lost 8 due to them attracting the attention of a very powerful snake beast, hunted the bitch myself and wasvery surprised to find that the creature was a rare varient like i had been.
it was a great fang cobra, the beast was 40 feet long and was extremely fast, luckily for me i had several evolutions on the bastard and it was like fighting an opponent on bullet time for me.
after i beat the thing into the dirt i told it that i wanted it to become my pet, that if it did i would help it evolve and that eventually it would be the second most powerful creature in the forest.
it agreed readily, when i returned with the snake i was praised by the goblins for subjugating such a strong foe, the orcs were just happy that they didnt have to fight it.
my goblins had brought home over 60 rabbits 40 tanuki and 30 gnolls, when i asked them where they found the gnolls i knew that they would make a good leveller for my goblin troops.
Day 16
finding the gnolls was actually pretty difficult as it turned out that they were using a large cave as their home, they numbered at about 200 or so but 80 of those were female noncombatants, only about 120 warriors.
i knew that with a few more days of training and hunting we could take them but that the fight would be hard, so i decided to stack the odds in our favor when the time came.
when i returned the goblins had just finished their morning training so i sent them out to go hunting i told them to hunt all day and to not return till evening, my new snake companion and i went hunting for another group to kill.
we found it in a large gathering of adventurers that were deep in the forest, i didnt think that this group was out here because of my attack on the town so they were here probably just levelling up their jobs.
this group was pretty big at about 30 people, i told my snake friend whom i really need to name to hang out until i weaken them and then to finish them off so that they could get the kill exp.
fighting a group of 5 adventurers that had fought together for years was very difficult, fighting 30 power levelled rookies that hardly know how to fight was a cinch, i took care of most of them with some paralyzing poison.
with the rookies paralyzed i took my time beating the vets into unconciousness, i had decided to name the snake after an anime character from my old world melasculasince she was female, she killed all of them and feasted on their flesh.
her level maxed out at 100 so tonight she would evolve, i hoped she could evolve into a rare varient or even an extinct species and gain a blessing like me, i even wondered what she would look like as a humanoid.
the goblins came back with over 200 animals that night.
Day 17
melascula in fact did evolve into a rare varient, she became a devouring greater fang serpent, she was easily 100 feet long now and was much more powerful, she also gained the blessing and protection of the god of snakes.
i decided then and there to start feeding her my blood to help her become a demon varient like myself as i hoped that she would gain a humanoid body so that i could mate with her, wow this new personality i have is taking over more.
i will admit though while my new demon blood is starting to take over it isnt a complete bad thing, i have never felt stronger and knowing the i will one day be fighting against strong opponents is exciting.
i decided also to start giving my troops a single drop of my blood every morning after training to try and strengthen them also, when they ingested it for the first time they gained their energy back very quickly but that was it.
that night they came back with over 300 animals including 53 night vipers, i knew that some if not most of them would be evolving soon and i couldnt wait, the thought of leading my new troops into battle excited me so much.
melascula hunted by herself today and gained 20 levels on her own, i have no idea what she hunted but she was well on her way, for melascula i gave about 40 drops of my blood, if she became a demon i would have a strong general.
Day 18
my goblins had done it of the 122 114 evolved into hobgoblins, 6 of them could use arcane magic while 3 others could use clerical magic, the rest became regular hobs although each of them had the greater god of wars blessing.
i assumed that it was my blood that gave the hobs their blessing but i just didnt know, it could have been the fact that i already had it and as my army they gained it as well, though i personally believe its reason 1.
i decided that today they would have spars to get used to their new bodies, while they did that i inspected the beginnings of my new fort, right now all we had was a large amount of quarried stone but soon it would be a cobblestone fort.
my orcs were doing a good job as all the swords and spears were finished and were sized perfectly for my new hobs, the orc warriors i had protecting women were also doing an great job, the female farmers were working well enough.
but it would take a while to see good returns there, my crafters had made about 350 hob sized outfits from the fur we got from hunting, i only had about 20 suits of leather armor right now which was nowhere near enough.
i had decided to wait until all of my hobs had armor before we slaughter the gnolls, the training of the hobs today was a great success as they got used to their new strength and dexterity.
melascula hunted again and got up to level 41 which was awesome, the blood for my troops and melascula again had no visual effect besides giving them back their energy, though i did feel that melascula was changing under the surface.
Day 19-21
during these three days we just continued as we had been, melascula was level 97 while my hobs had finally been fully outfitted with leather jerkins and vambraces, it would protect them at least somewhat.
the orcs had finally started on making the cobblestone, they made a strong mortar and set the broken up stones into the mix in a wood box frame to produce the proper size and shape blocks, the stone came out a light grey color.
right now they focused more on making the blocks and didnt worry about setting them just yet, it was decided that they would wait until they had a surplus of blocks before they started on the actual construction.
a new generation of goblins was born from the already pregnant females taken from the old goblin tribe, another 70 gobs were born, they would take a few days to grow but then they would be inducted into the trainee forces.
Day 22
allowing the hobs to breed with the new broodmares would hopefully net me a new force of fresh born hobs in 30 days or so from what i remember from the manga, i was looking forward to the day i had an army of hobs and ogres at my call.
we began our march into the gnolls territory in early morning after a light breakfast of hearty meat stew, i had melascula lead them while i flew above the gnoll tribe and started to weaken them with my poison.
by the time battle started i had managed to weaken all the gnolls in the tribe, they wouldn't keel over and die but they were definitely weaker and much slower, all in all i had a good few injured but only 4 deaths.
the gnoll women were unable to bear gob or hob children so we decided to just wipe out the whole tribe, 237 gnolls were killed and brought back to be eaten by my tribe, i also wanted the gnoll skins to be made into more armor.
that night we feasted and celebrated especially melascula as she had reached level 100 and would be evolving tonight, a number of hobs had also reached 100 and would be evolving as well so i was excited to see my first ogres.
Day 23
i was right melascula did have a humanoid form after this evolution, she had become a devouring demon serpent half-lord, her humanoid form looked like miranda from warlock of the magus world, with long black hair and smooth skin.
i couldnt help myself after i first saw her i dragged her into the caves and had my way with her which she seemed to enjoy greatly if the smile and sounds she made were any indication.
after we returned several hours later the newly evolved ogres made their way over and started strutting their stuff hoping to impress me, i will admit having 7 new ogres had me so excited for the future i had to have melascula again.
we came out of the caves again and i introduced melascula as my mate and the second strongest in the tribe, some of the ogres looked a little iffy about that but also remembered the 100 foot snake that killed 6 gnoll mages alone.
even though i didnt actually kill any of the gnolls i still was a part of the action and i gained a good few levels which brought me up to level 57, i decided that tomorrow i would hunt myself a large group or a really powerful enemy.
Day 24-26
in these three days we continued the hobs training and hunting which lead to another 22 hobs evolving into ogres, with almost thirty ogres i started them on new training with heavy wooden clubs since we were out of metal for weapons.
i trained the ogres as shock troops and also as a long range troop, the bows i made for them had a 350 pound draw weight and could punch an arrow through a tree at 100 meters, i called them my lance archers because of the arrow size.
melascula and i continued to hunt for levels which gained us a good few levels, i had found a large settlement of orks which were different from our orcs, these were green skinned and extremely violent raiders, i enjoyed their screams.
hunting these orks brought me all the way to level 100 which would probably be for the last time as i was fairly sure i was at the end of my evolution tree, melascula was currently level 45, that night i had her then evolved.
Day 27
i awoke in my new form more powerful than ever before, i had evolved beyond lord or high lord this time i had evolved into poison demon moth king, i tested my strength by finding a thick tree and pulling it from the ground.
i easily tore several extremely thick trees out of the ground with ease and new i would need another test so this time i decided to lift a massive bould that had to weigh at least 10 tons, my magic was even more impressive.
my original level 1 spell would fire 1 acid lance when i was a half-lord as a lord i could fire 20 lances for the same mana, when i became a high lord it became 60 lances now i could fire 120 and it still cost the same.
deciding that a real test was in order i flew around and found a massive gnoll camp with easily 1000 gnolls within, i decided to use only a single spell, i could now use level 5 spells which were called army killers.
it wa a slaughter as a hydra made of poison and venom tore through the camp killing all as easily as swatting a fly, even killing 1000 gnolls i only gained 2 levels.
with that i decided to recruit the rest of the goblins and orcs and finally get around to starting up my castle, as a fort just wouldnt be enough for a great demon king like myself.
Day 28-35
for the next week i recruited the remaining 4 orc tribes in the forest as well as over 20 of the goblin tribes, bringing my numbers up to 600 orcs and 1400 goblins, my new generation goblins had been training hard now for a while.
the rest of my hobs had become orges for the most part, only 3 became lords besides the mages and clerics, they became blade half-lords, with 106 ogres in my army i had a great amount of martial strength.
Day 36-44
i finished recruiting the goblin tribes in the forest, my numbers are now art 600 orcs and 2300 goblins, my ogres were now a hard hitting and arrow raining fighting force, they werent the most accurate but they were still deadly.
my orcs focused on mining and smithing for the most part while some of them were making more cobblestone blocks, the orcs that i conquered came with an abundance of iron which i had them use to start making equipment.
melascula and i continued our mating and hunting, she was close to evolving once again, even with all the creatures i've killed since becoming a demon king im still only at level 6, i might need to find a dungeon somewhere.
one thing that i had kept away from until now was the dwarf tribe in the mountains several dozens of miles from my quarry, i figured now was the time to deal with that issue.
so i flew over to the fort outside of the cave which would bring you into the dwarf stronghold, as i landed in front of the gate a number of dwarves were screaming at me about my business there.
i told them the truth that i was their neighbor and was coming to see if i could trade with them, they were hesitant but eventually sent out a negotiator, we ended up deciding that we would sell them meat and they would pay in dwarf coin.
we could then use that dwarf coin to buy other things we didnt have, i managed to trade them about 4000 pounds of meat that we didnt need and would just go to waste for 12000 silver coins which would get us 6000 pounds of iron.
