Chapter 3: Demon Law

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Demon eggs started hatching in batches, as though their time had arrived.

How to put it, this scene was like the one in Jurassic Park when the dinosaurs hatched. Little demons broke out of their eggs, and the entire beach suddenly became a birthplace of monsters...

The little demons hatched one after another, and their forms were all different. Some of them were humanoid like Roy, while some had beast forms with their four limbs on the ground. Other than that, there were insect-like demons with many legs. Some of them even had elytra on their backs! They seemed to be species that could fly from birth.

Other than their forms, their skin colors were also different. Most of them were blackish red, but there was also dark gray, cyan, and some with overlapping skin.

It seemed that the so-called demon was merely a generic term. Racial divisions were probably present among the demons as well. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

Different from Roy, who observed his environment after being born, these little demons seemed to be driven by instinct to devour their shells once they got out. The entire beach was brimming with the sounds of rustling and clattering as two-thirds of the demons munched away at their eggshells, which could cause people with enochlophobia to shrink into themselves!

Roy watched the scene with caution. He did not possess the slightest feeling of comradeship with these little demons. However, he also noticed something. The little demons born now were different from when he was born. Most of their bodies were relatively dry, and there was not much mucus in the eggshells, unlike Roy’s eggshell that had plenty of mucus left at the bottom, which had caused his body to be wet when he emerged.

Roy realized that his body was not as big as these little demons, nor was he as strong compared with the little demons with similar skin color as him...

Is this the consequence of premature birth?

After a while, the little demons finished devouring their eggshells and did something else that made Roy feel a chill in his bones.

Twenty meters away on Roy’s right was a little demon with black skin and a hideous face. He had four eyes on his forehead, and the pupils within were vertical. Behind him was a short tail. Roy watched as this little demon patted his stomach after finishing with his eggshell, picked up a cooled lava stone by his feet, and then hopped toward the part of the beach nearer to the sea behind him.

There were quite a number of demon eggs on the beach that had yet to hatch. This little demon found one of the unhatched eggs, raised the stone with both hands, and smashed the shell.

The eggshell cracked immediately upon impact, but the little demon did not stop there. He hit it again and again, directly breaking the eggshell!

The sticky mucus in the egg flowed out after the eggshell broke. The little demon inside already had a full form and seemed to sense the danger he was in. He struggled to open his eyes and break out of the shell, but the demon was really ruthless. He lifted the stone and smashed the other little demon inside!

The severe pain made the little demon shriek with pain. However, he was unable to stop the atrocities of the four-eyed demon because of his restricted movement. The shrieks became weaker with every blow of the stone.

He subconsciously knew that he was going to die before being born...

Most of the other demons that hatched did the same thing as this four-eyed demon, seeming to have agreed unanimously upon it. They used the stones on the ground as weapons to break the eggs of those demons that had yet to hatch and then kill the little demons within.

Roy felt a chill down his spine from this extremely cruel scene.

Is this the law of survival in the Demon World?!

These demons did not even treat the other demons as their comrades, much less a fake one like Roy. Roy turned around and found that many of the little demons were clapping and jumping around proudly on the spot, quacking and laughing as though it was all a fun game after their kills.

This habitual cruelty and murderousness seemed to be a common trait among even the infant demons.

The four-eyed demon not far from Roy completed his bloody kill at this time. A small ball of light appeared from the body of the dead little demon and wanted to fly away, but the vicious hand of the murderer grabbed it before it could!

After catching the ball of light, the four-eyed demon swallowed it whole.

The four-eyed demon’s body began to tremble and immediately entered a strange state. Even a bystander like Roy could see that he... seemed to be in ecstasy!

A song suddenly appeared in Roy’s mind after looking at his expression. Heyo, I feel like my life has reached the climax...

That ball of light is... a soul?! Roy reacted quickly and looked around, only to find those little demons that hatched first were collecting the souls of their kills and swallowing them whole!

All of them revealed ecstatic expressions afterward...

This should be caused by the Soul Devouring Addiction in a demon’s nature. No wonder souls are linked to demons in so many legends...

Roy found the opportunity to obtain his first soul—the little demons who did not manage to get out of their eggs!

As a weak premature baby, Roy had a full sense of crisis. From his observations, all signs showed that only the strongest could survive in the demon world. He could not guarantee whether or not the little demons around him would set their sights on a weak guy like him, so he had to increase his capital at all costs to increase his chances of survival.

Therefore, Roy immediately picked up a lava stone and ran toward a demon egg.

Roy steeled his heart and hit the eggshell with the stone. A crack appeared on his first hit.

He continued to smash until clack, and the eggshell finally broke. The mucus within flowed out, and inside housed a black demon with a sharp mouth like that of a worm. It struggled to climb out of survival instinct.

However, its savage appearance took a burden off Roy as he pounded the stone on the demon worm’s head.

The strange body of the demon worm made it impossible to know where the head was, but it would definitely not go wrong if it was near the sharp mouth. Roy gritted his teeth and smashed it repeatedly. The demon worm became a white, slurry goo. The goo mixed with the purple demon blood, making it look simply revolting.

Holding in his nausea, Roy completed his first kill and then collected the soul from this demon worm. However, the ball of light was a little dim, and its volume was a little small. It did not seem to be of good quality.

In any case, Roy obtained his first soul. He could finally satisfy the requirement to use the save function to enhance himself...𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com
