Waking up from his sleep, Ominous took some time to remember where he was, as soon as he turned around to look at the scorpion's corps he was shocked to see it had already decomposed
Meaning he took from 12 to 18 days to recover from the poison, remembering the visions he had while in deep sleep
His imps being killed, sacrificed and tortured for the pleasure of the creatures and gods of this realm
The look of horror and pain in his imps eye's only made him feel more agitated, his eye's started glowing purple his wings spread violently with a shock wave of magic pushing the air, sand and the scorpion corps away from him.
He didn't have deep feelings for his imps, but they were still his property, as a respectable demon being robed was the worst humiliation possible
His mind started running at 200% deciding what to do now that he was alone in this world, first he had to get stronger he needed more knowledge and more power
It seems that being an imp or an Elite imp was nowhere near enough to protect himself he needed to evolve but before that he should gather energy and expand his magic pool to the maximum with a new-found determination he decided he would tap into all his potential until he could no longer improve before evolving.
Ominous boosted his wings with magic, taking flight right away he started searching for a new prey
After a day of searching, he spotted a manticore like creature that looked like a giant purple lion with bat wings and a scorpion tail
Flying at a distance from him with its back facing him, he took advantage of that and got in a position above it
Casting an ice spike spell on its right wing he made the manticore fall into the sand, Ominous B lined to the creature and with his leg on the creature's skull he crushed it with all his power as not to give the creature any time to retaliate
Before the creature died, it released a great deal of lightning, hurting Ominous while he was crushing its skull.
After the Manticore died, Ominous started skinning the creature with his claws to make a coat and battle skirt with it
He was tired of running around naked, finishing his work with the use of magic he had made a very majestic looking coat with the manticores head as a shoulder pad
He had enchanted the coat to make it more resistant to penetration and elemental magic, his battle skirt matched the coat
And with his crimson dark color of his skin and the purple of his attire he looked like a regal demon, satisfied with his looks Ominous started eating the creature after roasting its meat with magic
He found a purple orb inside the creature it was like a glass ball with purple magic fluids inside of it, the position of this orb was next to the heart
This was the magic core of the manticore, extracting its magic until the core turned to dust he felt a boost to his magic.
He also noticed that his spell casting was faster after trying to use a healing spell on himself, walking slowly in a direction following a feeling he had, Ominous started thinking about getting new subordinates along the way to his destination.
He was walking in the last direction the slave mark of Lydia pointed him before she died as it was the closest to him, along the way Ominous demonized some lizard men with his blood before binding them to his will with his magic
Lizard men were lizard like humanoids with underdeveloped minds, the lizard men were 1.6 m creatures with sand colored scales easy for him to crush and subjugate
After demonizing the lizard men tribe with his blood they grew to 1.8 m with darker scales and bigger muscles, the lizard men chief grew horns and wings becoming 2 m in high, they all had the black tattoo he marked his servants with as a magic slave seal
The tree in his mark meant that his forces would only grow and strengthen, and the black color meant his power and influence he would always have over them
This tribe amounted to 120 lizard men before Ominous visited them, now only the healthy men and women were demonized and all else was consumed his forces amounted to 56 lizard soldiers.
Furthermore, he took his men to subjugate more lizard men tribes along the way, after enslaving the third tribe Ominous found a bigger tribe of lizard men being attacked by Orcs
The same damn green skins from his visions, he ordered his 368 men to attack the Orcs and aid the lizard men
Feeling the meaning of their master all the demonized lizard men under the leadership of the 3 tribe chiefs attacked cutting through the orcs like a knife through butter Ominous kept giving magical coverage to his and the other the lizard men from the sky
The orcs felt the tide of the battle switching to the side of the lowly lizard men, they started to regroup outside the lizard men tribe in an attempt to break through and flee
The berserker orc leading the orcs in this battle decided to challenge the creature flying in the sky and bombarding them from afar
"DO YOU DARE TO FACE ME, COWARD"
Screamed the orc, using his taunting skill to attract the attention of the flying Ominous
Giving a mental order to his men all his lizard men stopped their attack and made a half a circle around the orcs
As if understanding what was about to happen the other non-demonic lizard men stopped and mimicked the mighty dark lizard men around them, Ominous descended slowly from the sky with flames in one hand and lightning in the other ready to attack at any moment.
He noticed that these orcs looked a lot like the Orcs from the game World of Warcraft, he played back on earth, they had even made a movie out of it
