Devil Slave (Satan system)

Chapter 935: Hunt Starts

"Finally, we are all alone. Hi there, Prey! I am Nana, System User of the HUNT..."

"Huh!?" Lenny was left speechless by the spectacule before his eyes.

Different Soul beasts, many of them ethereal in nature, and some others just mutated beasts surrounded him.

From the looks of things, this nana was the person in control of them.

After all, they looked at him with eyes that showed their willingness to feast, but like obedient puppies, they waited.

maybe it was because of the nature of the plane, or the tradition of the place Lenny was not yet familiar to, but Lenny thought her dressing was a bit lacking.

then again, it was.

Nana wore little to no clothes, as if her skin itself distasted the idea of fabric around them.

Most of her body was exposed to the eyes with only the necessary parts being covered. But that did not mean that it was attractive to look at.

After all, she had more scars than an animal had more fur on its body. It was so much that even Lenny held the reflexive action to vomit.

Yet, she exposed her body with pride. Her eyes were entirely black with no white at all, and her head was empty of hair.

This was Nana, a hunter. At this time, lenny did not know it, but he had just come in contact with one of the most terrifying people on this sub plane.

Her name rang far and wide. Of course, none really knew what she looked like. She was a bounty hunter for hire and any that had ever seen her face, had all died.

But what was trully amazing about her was not her reputation. rather, it was the fact that everyone knew that Nana was a System user.

naturally, this put a target on her back as wide as a bill board from lenny’s former life, but she still lived as free as the wind. None were able to touch her, and even her employees had to use specific methods to either contact her or pay her.

It is said that at night, horrors stories were told to children about her, just to keep them in doors.

In truth, even adults feared her, and when one knew he had become her prey, all he could do was write a will for the next generation, and request for a quick death.

Then again, records have shown that a quick death was not her style.

She had a bad habit of playing with her prey, as if to feed off their pain and plea before ending their lives. Of course, this was a feature that her system allowed her enjoy.

Some of her documented deaths include the following.

Nailing a man to a wall, cut his testicleless and forcing him to swallow them before his wife and kids. And then making cuts across their bodies to mirror the formation of the stars in the sky.

One time, it is said that she cut a man’s limbs and fed it to him for days just to prove a point to the rest of the other bounty hunters after her.

For these many deeds under her name, she was as untouchable as she was notorious.

To add to her list of capabilities, she had the ability to subjugate animals, no matter how wild to her rule. It is said that even Nether beasts are not above her persuasion ability.

This made her a queen amongst wild animals.

In a sub plane like this one which was filled mostly by soul beasts, it even made her a more terrifying fore.

Yet, in all these things, she was only Deep demon ranked. But her soul strength was far beyond that.

Soul strength was just as vital as physical strength. in fact, they were some that could argue that it was far more important.

After all, if one were to destroy the soul, no matter the strength of the individual, the fight had ended. the soul was the source of all life. Hence the reason why many choose to cultivate it more than the physical body.

They were even those that had trained their souls so strong that they were even capable of swapping bodies, becoming soul based entities just because they were capable of doing so.

On this sub plane, where the power of the soul was considered far more valuable than brute strength, it was easy to tell which one Nana trained more.

The six soul levels were as follows: Green Soul, Yellow soul, blue soul, Red soul, violet soul, and Gold Soul.

Each soul level was its own display of strength and master over the soul realm. Of course, each was further divided, but it was into three.

Lenny had not had a teacher in these things, and because of the kind of world he had come from, he had only trained his physical strength.

Nevertheless, that did not mean that he had not been lucky. His encounter in the devil dungeon after consuming that Soul Devil allowed his soul to climb up a rank and become a rank 2 Green soul user.

This would have not happened so soon. But Lenny had once consumed a soul Devil back in the eighth earth Demeter when he had entered a devil dungeon.

Also, he had nourished his soul to in turn nourish his body when he faced off against Manta and Razor (Book 1). Back then, Manta had pulverized his heart and he used his soul absorption ability to restore it.

At that time, Lenny did not know that he had used the ethereal to tune the After Truth which was reality.

Nana chuckled, "A Great Demon existence with a Green soul!? How hilarious. But don’t worry my dear. Even your monstrous strength can’t help you. Not when I fight in the Ethereal." the moment she said those words, she seemed to fade out of existence like mirage.

The Hunt had started.

All this while, his soul was still Green.
