The Reincarnation of a Masochist

The Great Demon Lord Azabache is bored with the fact that he is an undefeatable demon lord. He feels he never earns his victories and decides to end his life early. He maintains his memories and is reincarnated into a new world after dying. Maybe this time he can finally earn victories that are not due to his immense power. Disclaimer: This is not about a sexual masochist

Maggot

Everything is still black.

I try to move. It seems like I am some monster with no arms or legs.

It feels really hot and I feel something biting a part of my body.

I shake it off.

Am I a snake?

Let's see if I can check my status.

S T A T U S !

[Status:

Species: Maggot

Lv 1

HP: 4/5 (Burning)

MP: 0/0

Strength: 2

Armor: 1

Speed: 1

Skills:

Nibble Lv 1, Crawling Lv 1, Acid Puke Lv 3

Skill Points: 0]

It looks like I am able to check all my skills, my species, and burning. Burning seems to effect me the most atm so I check it first.

[Burning: Status effect that deals 1 damage every 5 minutes]

Damn! So every 5 minutes I will take 1 damage. I need to heal fast so I can stay alive. I like the extra challenge but it will go to waste if I can't overcome it.

I will check Acid Puke next since it seems the most overpowered. I hope God didn't give me some overpowered ability that makes my life easier. Then everything would be a waste.

[Acid Puke: A typical ability that baby maggots are born with. Anything that is eaten by the maggot will come out as acid dealing a small amount of damage. Will not work if there is nothing in the stomach.]

Good thing it isn't that strong. But it might come in handy. I'll check crawling next.

[Crawling: Grants the ability to move body at a slow speed.]

Ok. So it looks like I'm slow. Crawling allows me to move so it is neccesary.

I'll check my last skill, nibble.

[Nibble: An attack that deals a small amount of damage from a mouth without teeth]

Nibble and crawling were self explanatory and acid puke is also kinda self explanatory. It looks like my skills aren't that good but they will get stronger.

Maybe.

Well last I should check my species.

The maggot.

[Maggot: The baby form of a house fly. A weak monster that usually needs to fight with its kin in order to evolve into a house fly. Once evolving into a house fly it usually produces more maggots before dying within a day of its birth]

So I am expected to die today. Let's defy fate!

Well before that I need to fight with the rest of the maggots here. I now know what the nibbling was earlier.

It's time for a BATTLE ROYALE!

It's kinda like the maggot hunger games, I suppose.

I may not be able to see but I can move and feel. It's time to kill my brothers and sisters. Such is the way of life.

I hope eating brings my health back.

Even if they are my kin.

I move my head searching for some other maggots. My head rams directly into one.

I nibble with my heart and soul.

Although it doesn't do much damage us maggots are weak so it dies quickly.

[Defeated Maggot Lv 1]

[Gained 1 EXP]

Mwahahahaha!

This maggot is my first victim!

I nibble on the corpse a little and digest some of it.

It tastes disgusting but my victory tastes delicious.

Oh the juxtaposition!

I have finally earned a victory that wasn't handed to me for free.

Take that God!

This was just the first of many victories I will achieve by my own will.

This is the True Power of Azabache!

Not just a powerful demon lord but someone who can defeat opponents without needing powerful tools.

Well enough rambling.

I need to hunt for more maggots.

All of us maggots were all born in close proximity so there are probably a lot of maggots nearby.

It's hunting time!
