《The Quest To Devour All》Chapter 15 [Edited 18/12/19]
Advertisement
After visiting the ID Station, Tremis and Afif went deep into the forest to train
They had spent 2 weeks in the forest so Tremic could learn how to control his strength. Doing such exercises as punching Afif over and over until he got the strength that could be considered normal which took quite a while to do considering he was new to all this stuff. Although he got strong pretty quickly since he was, in fact, a newborn, he didn't really know how to control such power as you could’ve guessed.
He had to learn how to control every ounce of muscle and power inside of him, well not really muscle since he technically didn't have any as he was a being made out of a form of energy that replicated them. So you could call them 'pure energy muscles'. Anyway, he had to learn how to control the movement of his leg muscles and arm muscles so jumping repeatedly was also a part of the training. Our God of Devour was so happy he didn't have any phobias of heights or he would have had a heart attack by now.
Doing handstand pushups with only one finger which sometimes would end up with his finger completely twisting its way inside of the soil. Afif also made him practice fighting with his legs so he had to put both of his hands behind his back and start sparring. After quite a few sparring matches the whole area of the forest they were in was completely destroyed so they had to change locations every once and awhile.
It was this whole cycle of training over and over until he got it perfect.
One of you might be asking, "What about his {Vampire Thirst}? Did he learn how to control it?"
Well, there's a simple answer to that young Jimmy. Of course, fucking not. Why the fuck would you think that? I’m not that kind of Creator to implement that to take it away, what kind of image do you have of me?
To explain, every time the Sun would start to go down Tremis would run as far as he can into the forest with every point in Agility that he had. As an excuse, he would tell Afif that he was going out to train some more which worked surprisingly well.
His 'other self' would go completely berserk on that area of the forest, splitting up trees, fighting animals, and of course drinking their blood even if they were poisonous.
These antics led to {Poison Resistance) to level up from level 1 to level 3. That must be a good thing, right? Having poison resistance is always good, said every reincarnated person ever.
Tremis, while he waited for the sun to go down after he already left Afif, spent time hunting and devouring any animal that came in sight. Most were just little animals and were nothing really hard to kill at all and even the ones that were supposed to be hard were fairly easy since this wasn't really a 'harmful' place. It's the same reason that Afif has chosen this part of the forest to train in. Tremis gained quite a lot of spoils overdoing this and devouring the corpses that were leftover by his 'other self' for 2 weeks but not as much to be considered noteworthy since the animals caught on quickly that they should run away from the area.

[Ding! Summary of skills and stats gained over the past 336 hours have been calculated]
[+121 Strength +189 Agility +124 Defense +149 Intelligence] Alright maybe a little noteworthy.
[Snake Maneuverability: A passive skill that allows the Host to obtain the movements of a snake. Making even the smallest actions look as smooth and clean as water. This allows the Host to obtain flexibility that only belongs to the Masters of True Martial Arts.]
[Infrared Vision: A skill that allows the user to see in Infrared at will. The Host has gained a membrane similar to a snake that can detect infrared radiation from warm bodies up to one meter away. It allows the Host to see people that are hidden. Not able to detect invisible objects, must be evolved further to obtain such ability]
[Eyes of True Terror LVL 1: A skill that, when activated, causes the person who is being observed to feel terror from the bottom of their heart. This terror attacks their soul causing them extreme distress and may cause madness if the state of mind is critical. If the person's mental fortitude is high then this skill can deal a minimum amount of damage to being completely useless.]
[Flamethrower: Host launches a wave of fire in a selected direction.]
[Animal Berserk Mode: If Host's health goes below 5%, all stats are increased by 10% The Host's Eyes will turn into slits, fangs and claws will grow. The mental state of the Host will decrease, turning the mind akin to a feral beast. After this mode is activated all stats will decrease by 50%]
[Cutting off Information...]
Some other news is that the skill {Devourer of Corpses} has reached level 11!
No other skill levels have increased since he hasn't really used his Falx at all and definitely did not cheat on his Falx for a longsword to train with.
As you can tell most of these skills came from snakes as most of the population in this part of the forest are vipers, pythons and such.
At the current time, Tremis and Afif are headed back to the Kingdom since they are all finished with the training. It was about 11 AM as they walked back, talking about certain things. Tremis also gained a lot of information from Afif.
The months were called Ianuarius, Februarius, Martius, Aprilis, Maius, Iunius, Quintili, Augustus, September, October, November, December. The days were called Lunae, Martis, Mercurii, Iovis, Ve, Saturni, Solis. The current day seemed to be Quintili 17th 602. With this in mind, Tremis made Quintili 17th his birthday and made his year of birth 582 for further use.
There are apparently are over a million continents over the whole of Elanthria, some higher ranked than others and the continent that they were on was called 'Legentibus'. Legentibus is one of the lowest-ranked continents in the whole of Elanthria meaning it has one of the weakest people and monsters.
The common language in Legentibus is 'Ineptias' and is spoken by pretty much every single thing with sentience comparable to a human.
Tremis even got to know some stuff about Afif.
Afif is 46 years old and was born on Quintili 19th 556. His mother's name was Melissa Jaegar and he didn't know his father at all. All he knows is that his mother ran away with him, away from his father and she later died of some disease when he turned 17.

Sounds like another quest that a transmigrator like me has to do..find the father, oh no the father is super strong! He also has a super big backing and when I kill him I have this whole group of people trying to kill me. Then I must kill the leader of this group! Oh no this leader was super powerful and also had backing! Fuck off im not doing that quest for you, I already have my quest, The Quest To Devour All! That sounds very familiar.
Afif and Tremis mainly talked about girls though, like some of the girls that had become guards and talking about their..well big tits, who the fuck cares about the personality? Apparently, Afif is more of an ass man which Tremis completely agreed with which resulted in a high five. One of the girls who was training to become a guard had one of the biggest asses they had ever seen, she might earn more money working at a brothel than working as a guard.
Tremis really didn't have any interest in the guys who were guards since they were not mainly his type so he was more focused on the girls since they had some charm to them. He might even seduce some of those women just to see what they can do. He learned how to control his power now so he can actually have sex now and not kill the person, {Snake Maneuverability} might be in handy in that kind of situation.
Afif had a look of remembering something as he dug into his pocket pulling out a square looking thing and giving it to Tremis.
"Almost fuckin forgot, here’s yer ID Card lil bro! I went back to the Kingdom when you were trainin in the middle of the night and it was done a few days ago."
"Oh, I almost forgot about it too. What were we talking about? Oh yeah, her ass is at least-"
After talking for a while they finally made it back to the Kingdom after an hour and went into the barracks. Every guard they passed saluted them saying "Good morning sirs!"
They chilled against a random wall in the barracks and continued their talk but it wasn't about girls and their tits and/or asses anymore.
"Is there anything for me to do around here? It's a little boring."
"I mean you can definitely become a guard lil bro! Actually, I can make you Lieutenant-General if yer want, no one can object."
"What's the pay and what can I do?"
"Uhh, fuck im not good at math..like 100 gold coins a month are sumtin.. Dats like the minimum, I can literally ask the King for a raise whenever I want so I could do the same for my lil bro! And you can command all of the guards and basically do anything you want in the Kingdom."
Only an idiot won’t accept this
"Sure I’ll do that shit, do I have to do anything?"
"No ill just tell the King bout yer, easiest fuckin way mate."
"Oh yeah, my big brother knows the king." Tremis laughed putting his arm around Afif while slightly hunched over since he was taller than him,
"Yeah, yer big brother is amazin." Afif laughed with him doing the same.
"Im going to go change clothes and try to pick up one of these ladies, get someone to accompany me to sleep you know? I'll see my big brother later." Tremis stopped leaning on the wall and started walking up to one of the girls he was checking on since he entered the barracks.
"Yeah yeah, get yerself goin lil bro!"
Tremis went into the armory and saw all the classic steel armor then went into the room on the left which was the bathroom. There were different stalls with shower heads which was basically it, there were 10 stalls in total and 6 of them were being used. He went into the stall that was at the farthest right. After a shower, he walked out the stall full naked since it was a military barracks bathroom so no one really cared.
Tremis, as soon as he walked out a guard holding a pair of clothes came up to him. It was a female guard and she was obviously a little embarrassed to be in front of her naked Lieutenant General, which was spread around since Afif told everyone that Tremis was Lieutenant General now.
It seems Afif already chose a girl to accompany me eh? Hehe such a good big bro..she seems good enough
Tremis looked at her straight in the eyes through her helmet since she was wearing full armor and took the clothes that were in her hands. Without even warning her he put on his clothes that he was provided with in front of her, obviously not caring, why should he? She has already seen him naked.
Tremis told Afif that he liked suits a lot so Afif must have been listening. Tremis had given him a 3 piece tuxedo with black red trim. This meant the lining of the pocket and collar were red and the waistcoat itself was red. The rest of the suit was pitch black.
This suit may not seem to be very much, just a simple suit but it was actually pretty durable. It was made out of silk from a 'Magnesium Enhanced Orb-Weaver' and was worth a few gold coins. Most people wouldn’t even be able to leave a scratch into this suit.
Tremis put his hand into his pants pocket and looked down on the guard right in front of him.
Time for my manipulative charm to come out.
