Chapter 1

In the bottomless abyss, a place where all the evils of the multiverse converge, it is also the opposite of all that is good, beautiful, and pure.

Here, there is no friendship, family, or love, only betrayal, slaughter, and destruction.

The Sea of Demonic Origin, located in the bottomless abyss, can also be called the "River Styx." It spans the countless layers of the abyss, representing the ultimate death and symbolizing the most fundamental cornerstone of the multiverse. It devours everything that approaches, and even if a deity touches its crimson waters, they will be consumed entirely. However, it is also the birthplace of demons, where countless demons are born.

Scarlet light emanates from the sky, from the several scarlet celestial bodies, illuminating the endless riverbank.

As the tide of the River Styx slowly recedes, countless eggs are left behind.

They are roughly half the height of a person, covered with either scarlet or pitch-black patterns. As time passes, they continuously expand and contract, like the most primitive and savage fetal movements. If one listens carefully, they can even hear the creatures inside roaring.

A consciousness gradually awakens within one of the eggs.

"Kill, kill... hungry... kill"

"Who... am I..."

Rationality gradually overcomes the wild instincts, and fragmented memories converge in his mind, seemingly the memories of someone named Li Ye.

Incomplete, like broken pieces, a bit like a third-person perspective, as if he had watched a movie in detail.

And this movie has no distinctive features, only a mundane and mediocre storyline, with nothing particularly noteworthy or memorable.

The newly born existence instinctively rejects such a life, as if it is telling him that everything about him is meaningless.

At this moment, a voice echoes in the depths of his soul:

"Your true name: Stuart Ogarisa Asarhon... Coliver Olsaga"

And the inherited memories of the demon also flood into his mind.

After a long time.

"I... am not Li Ye, I am Stuart Ogarisa Asarhon... Coliver Olsaga!!!"

"I am a demon!!!"

A pair of long, spiky claws, accompanied by roars and shouts, pierce through the shell of the demon egg.

Li Ye, or rather, Stuart Ogarisa Asarhon... Coliver Olsaga, emerges, becoming the first individual to hatch from this batch of demon eggs.

He stands at 1.4 meters tall, with a head resembling a combination of a human and a wolf, long and sharp canines, eyes without whites or pupils, entirely blood-red. His limbs walk upright like a human, but he has only three fingers, covered in scales and spines, with extremely sharp tips. A short tail swings behind him like a whip, its sharp, gleaming tip indicating it is not just for show.

Looking at the celestial bodies in the sky, he grits his teeth and says, "I, Olsaga, will not live a mediocre life..."

The true name represents the foundation of a demon's existence, everything about him!

Each demon's true name can only be known by themselves; if it is fully revealed, it becomes their greatest weakness, and their life and death are no longer in their control. Therefore, they can only choose a segment of it as their name.

The name "Olsaga" he chose represents the black sky in the demon language.

A feeling of hunger surges in his heart, as if the stomach acid is corroding the stomach lining.

Shifting his gaze to the eggshell at his feet, his demonic instincts tell him to eat it, his first meal.

And Olsaga does not resist, though the human memories make him feel uncomfortable, he knows he must do it.

So he tears the eggshell apart and eats it piece by piece. As he does so, the scales on his body, which were initially soft due to his recent birth, begin to harden, as if undergoing a transformation.

Before he can fully process the feeling of growing stronger, a voice appears in his ear.

"Evolution System Activated: Thank you for using it!"

And in the corner of his eye, a list of information appears.

"Host: Stuart Ogarisa Asarhon... Coliver Olsaga"

"Race/Level: Demon/Young Demon"

"Strength: 5 (5)"

"Speed: 6 (5)"

"Constitution: 5 (5)"

"Magic: 6 (5)"

"Soul: 8 (5)"

"Talents: Soul Devouring Evolution (evolve through devouring souls), Slaughter Evolution (evolve through constant battle and slaughter), Combat Instinct (born with exceptional combat talent)"

"Skills: None"

"Evolution Points: 0"

"Note: The values in parentheses represent the normal levels of a newly born young demon. Each point increase will enhance the current strength by one-fifth. For example, 6 points are one-fifth stronger than 5 points, 7 points are one-fifth stronger than 6 points, and so on, with percentage increases."

Looking at this information, with the memories of his past life, he immediately understands what it means, muttering to himself, "System? Golden finger??"

His speed and magic are relatively high, likely due to his current body's natural talent in these areas. His soul strength is 8 points, probably because of the fusion of a human soul and a demon soul.

Shifting his attention to the information, he reads the system's operation manual.

After spending some time absorbing it, he understands the function of the evolution system.

Convert the energy absorbed from killing and devouring into evolution points to enhance oneself!

A hint of surprise flashes in his eyes, but he then remembers that slaughter and evolution are the natural instincts of demons.

Does he need this system to intervene?

With a trial mindset, he first turns off the system's absorption and conversion functions, walks to another egg, picks up a large rock, and smashes it, breaking the shell and revealing an underdeveloped demon inside.

The underdeveloped demon, despite the situation, does not die but struggles, glaring fiercely at Olsaga.

Olsaga, expressionless, punches the other demon, smashing its head and killing it instantly.

Using his demonic talent, he grasps the intangible soul of the other demon, picks up the corpse, and begins to feed.

The roaring soul and the crimson flesh become his nourishment, building the foundation of his strength.

As he eats, he feels the enhancement, a natural talent of demons, evolving through slaughter and devouring souls.

After finishing, he picks up the rock again and smashes another egg.

This time, he activates the system's absorption and conversion functions.

The process is the same as before, but this time he feels no enhancement.

However, the evolution points in the system's interface increase to 15 points.

Ten points come from devouring souls, and the remaining five points from devouring flesh, indicating that souls are the main source.

Closing his eyes, he evenly distributes the 15 evolution points across his attributes, silently making a comparison.

After a short while, the enhancement is complete, and he opens his eyes, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The system's conversion efficiency is about twenty times that of a demon's natural talent!

This means that with the same resources, his enhancement speed is at least twenty times faster than other demons, something an ordinary demon could never imagine. Moreover, besides the basic enhancement of physical and soul attributes, the system's more important ability is to evolve various skills by consuming evolution points.

The required evolution points vary depending on the strength of the skill.

Thinking about this, he shifts his gaze to the other demon eggs. Olsaga understands that his first wealth as a demon will come from them.

He clearly remembers that when he was born, the eggs on the riverbank were quiet, but now some are making strange noises, indicating that their bodies are nearly mature. Soon, new "fellow demons" will be born.

In this situation, Olsaga is moved. So, he sets the system to automatically enhance his body and soul with half of the harvested evolution points, and the other half is reserved as a reserve. Then, he starts smashing the eggs one by one with a rock, starting from the nearest.

Demons, even after gaining intelligence, do not have any sense of kinship. Young demons, who only have instincts and savagery, have even less. Only the strong can leave this riverbank and reach other layers of the abyss. The weak either become stepping stones for other demons or will be reprocessed when the River Styx rises again, with no third option.

Smash!

Smash!

The sound of eggs breaking, like eggs being smashed, begins to echo in the corner of the riverbank. The surrounding demon eggs, sensing the danger, start to become restless.

Olsaga does not choose to devour the flesh of the demons, as eating the physical flesh piece by piece is too slow, taking several minutes to finish one, severely reducing efficiency. So, he chooses to focus on the souls.

The intangible souls can be compressed into a ball and swallowed directly, very practical!

Although he only uses half of the evolution points to enhance himself, as Olsaga continues to slaughter, he can clearly feel himself growing stronger. Stones that he could only lift with both hands a short while ago can now be lifted with one hand, and the indescribable wonderful feeling makes him immerse himself in it.

The blood-red color in his eyes deepens, and the past human nature is gradually eroded by the slaughter instinct of the abyssal demon. Although Olsaga has noticed this, he has no particular thoughts about it. Because he is now an abyssal demon, savagery, though it influences his character, does not affect his rationality, which is part of his demonic nature.

Unlike human flesh and blood, just as slaughter is the foundation of demons, savagery, greed, and destruction are also the main components of Olsaga. His existence itself contains a small part of the infinite evil of the multiverse.

There is no such thing as remaining pure amidst the mire; he is the mire, he is evil!
