Discovery

The week passed by and felt like it took ages. Just the completion of my first contract is more rewarding than the reward itself. The infinite Star Cores are great but for demons, the most important thing is the contract. The years of living with mother taught me all about the wonders of contracts and my love for making and completing them just gives me the best feelings of satisfaction.

Now my first contract will be completed. Even if I've completed many more contracts in these hundred years, you can't beat the first one. I sit down in my chair and have my eyes glued on the door. When Gaia knocks on it and enters I almost can't restrain myself from rushing her and kissing her face. She sits down and I speak first.

"It's so good to see you Gaia. I've been waiting in anticipation for this day. Please, tell me about the people on your surface.", I tell her. She looks at my side because she can see me vibrating in my seat. She looks straight into my eyes and says the words I've been waiting for.

"The humans have stopped polluting my surface and the contract is complete. Because you used the Star Core, my energy has increased significantly so I'd consider giving you more, but I've heard you can make more Star Cores so the one should suffice.", when she finishes saying her thanks and I lead her out, I feel a wave of ecstasy wash over me from my first and many other completed contracts. The first not being completed was like a dam that held back the full force of every contract completed after. When it was completed, I had to teleport myself to my room with my two sisters and lock the door. I couldn't contain the ecstasy and attacked them in my lamia form. My entire being was focused on these two sisters as an outlet for every feeling flowing through me.

When I woke up, I felt their submission through the connection we had. I had to go over my mental computer to remember everything that happened, but that was a mistake and I had to have a few more hours with them before I was ready to leave the room. I locked those memories away until we need them again.

I had completed the first contract I made and showed my sisters who's the leader in the relationship. The only thing else to do is working on my innates and practicing the new features I discovered from them.

I often thought that my devouring innate was all about gaining abilities and improving them the more I devoured. This wasn't even close to the limits I found out. While gaining abilities is possible with devouring things, I can also store the matter that I devour. I recently learned this when testing out my bio kinesis ability. Molding my own body to look like whatever I want, I stumbled upon the problem of not having enough materials to work with in this form.

This confused me because you can't just create things from nothing, but my form mods do just that. Even with the form mods, Sophia and Fitoria need to condense the matter of their bigger forms into their bodies. This makes them very heavy, but I don't seem to have this problem and I found out my devouring innate turns matter into energy and stores it in my soul. The more I eat the denser the energy in my soul becomes, which also effects my fusion energy.

Next thing about my devouring innate is that it can recreate anything I've eaten. This should be obvious if you look at the way people digest things naturally and how the innate gives me a power for everything I eat. When people eat, they break down the food in their stomach and use the useful nutrients to power their body. The rest is waste and expelled.

My innate takes the waste and breaks it down further into energy to be stored into my soul, but the other part of taking useful things and using it is the gaining of abilities from what I eat. I can conclude from this, I should be able to take everything and recombine it into what I ate without loosing the ability because I ate the gate and that does basically the same thing. It takes in energy and turns it into matter.

I made some mechanical arms from my first life with my bio kinesis ability. Since the energy is a part of my body it can be manipulated by the ability and so can the arms. Now I just need to find out how to eat things from long range and I can eat specific abilities of people and recreate them so they will never notice.

==================seven years later=================

My instincts have been telling me that I'm about to gain three divinities. My sisters have already gained their divinities last year. Sophia gained one divinity for fluffiness and one for loyalty. Fitoria gained one for overwhelming strength because she is just really good at punching things.

Now I could gain it the natural way, but my instincts tell me it's better to do it another way, my way. I'm going to gain divinities related to each of my innates, so I'll just devour them and use the raw law energy to supercharge my innates. Fuck yeah!

It usually works by crystallizing the understanding I have of each law related to them and I can draw upon it for power. That is stupid! I've never let something mess with my soul and I'm not going to start now. I'll shape my own divinity and it will be for helping my innates.

I sit down and focus on my innates. I feel an energy pulling on three flowing rivers in my soul, trying to pull them to one point. I open my metaphorical mouth and bite on the energy stopping it from continuing. My instincts tell me where to bite, when to bite, and for how long to bite. My persistence gives me more drive to eat the energy and I don't give it a chance to retaliate. It can't escape because this is my soul and I cut it off at every turn.

*munch munch munch* My innates slowly overpower the energy and start mixing it with the rivers that it was trying to take from me. I pull the rivers to my mouth and reinforce my innates even more. It's an intense battle between the laws that make up divinity and my unwillingness to back down.

I feel other smaller rivers in my soul and start focusing on them as well. The rivers that represent my understanding of seals, synthesis, infinite supply, and everything else all rush in to get a piece of the energy. I feel a thrill from finally swallow the last bit of energy, and when I check my soul, it looks fucking massive. The entire thing feels divine rather than a small point. My fusion energy has become denser and the amount has increased a hundred-fold. Now I know what to do next time I ascend.
