Ready? Fight!!!

Ben woke up in the darkness and crawled out of the cave that seemingly shrank. After he got a nice stretch examined his body, he was now taller, had two small horns on his forehead his claws were not that sharp but would suffice to rip out throats of low-rank demons, so Ben was quite satisfied. He also noticed that his body looked more muscular and sturdier and that he was hungry demons don't need to eat as much and often as humans, but Ben did not know how long he was unconscious so he decided to go for a walk and look for something to eat.

Walking for a while in this charred forest he heard rustling and felt as if something is following him making Ben feel uncomfortable this was only natural because in the abyss demons are nearly everywhere some would follow you waiting for a time to attack or for you to show weakness so Ben had to be careful.

"Gaaah" Ben screamed surprised when his foot got stuck in a small hole in the ground. He wrapped his hands around the stuck leg and pulled but it was useless he couldn't get it out. Quietly a skinless dog appeared behind him and slowly crept up to him. Ben turned around startled by the sound of a cracking twig he saw the disturbing figure. He desperately tried to pull out his leg and pulled even harder.

"Graaaaawww!" He growled at it.

'Hahaha, theatre classes are showing it's worth now!'

The dog lowered itself and got ready to jump at the demon. With a quick and strong movement, it pushed itself forward like a cheetah but Ben was prepared and dodged to the left and slashing at it with his right claw. The demonic dog crashed to the ground and got up quickly with blood dripping from its belly more pissed than hurt.

'shit this is not going according to my plan!' He thought while he easily pulled his leg out of the hole.

But this beast was not known for its intelligence and it charged again just like before Ben dodged but slashed its throat this time. However because when it jumps it raises its front legs so only one claw of him could hit the throat but this was enough for it to crash to the ground again and whimper with a gargling sound it struggled to get up again at this point Ben jumped on it and slashed wildly at it again and again until an orange ball of light came out of it. Ben grabbed the beast by its hind legs and pulled it over behind a bush when a thought hit him. He has no lighter or something else to cook and bringing it to the volcano he saw in the distance was a no-no!

He walked up and down to think of a solution but didn't found one. There was only the possibility to eat it raw... he ripped a piece of its flesh out closed his eyes and hesitated to eat it. It was okay a little seasoning and it would actually taste good.

Ben went on with his exploration till he reached a round stone platform with a big pentagram engraved on it. He didn't know how long he walked to reach this it felt like days or maybe just a few hours. The Abyssal sky is always dark covered by thick clouds from the volcanos that you could find everywhere in the abyss.

The platform must be a summoning formation he knew from his gained memories so Ben looked for a nice spot he could hide in while waiting for something to happen. Going to another world could be a good opportunity to get as many souls as possible.

Ben finally got to look at his status.

[Status]

Name: Ar'ath.... Saarog (Ben)

Race: Low-Rank Demon

Power: 85

Magic: 0

Souls: 32

[Craft]

While he was looking at his status the summoning circle started to glow and pulsate what made Ben instantly look at it. He walked over and as soon as he placed himself in the middle the light the circle gave of became dazzling. When he opened his eyes again he found himself in a ruin os so standing on a similar circle in front of a huge and muscular demon with a big two-handed sword on his back this guy was nearly 3 meters tall and had two thick and long horns on his forehead and clothed in black plate armor. An unknown force pushed Ben down on his knees and his head to the ground. That is just how it is, a powerful demon could command all weaker and lower demons around that is also a reason why demons are feared so much, a high-Rank demon could just summon his own army and order them to kill and destroy.

The huge demon just grabbed Ben and threw him in a sea of more low and middle rank demons.

'BASTARD!' Ben thought but his thoughts were interrupted by a loud and booming voice.

"I am Ulgon! I summoned you all for the war against those punny humans of this world!"

Ben couldn't help as an evil smirk appeared on his face revealing his sharp teeth.

'War! A lot of souls! and most importantly POWER!!!'
