Chapter 510 [Extra Chapter] Hades Pita and the Gods and Men: The Full Picture of the Trap

The Sticky Clan didn't have a name in the past; they were simply considered a type of monster with very low intelligence.

It looks like a slime, is blue all over, and its body is like a viscous liquid that can flow.

They inhabit the depths of the desolate Demon Continent, where they thrive and multiply in a forest.

It is a parasitic species that enters fruit or the carcass of organisms and parasitizes the body of the organism that eats it.

Logically speaking, they shouldn't be able to survive independently.

However, the very existence of common sense often awaits its breaking.

One day, a certain slime was captured by an unknown dragon scientist who was good at scientific research.

The other party conducted various experiments using this slime.

He allowed it to parasitize the bodies of all living organisms in turn, mimicking the biological characteristics of all life forms to survive, and then something unexpected happened.

This slime has gained intelligence.

The scientists were very satisfied with the result and, after completing the task, released it back into the colony.

The one that returned to its pack had already gained intelligence. Naturally, upon returning to the pack and hearing the chirping sounds around it, it developed a natural aversion to stupidity. Slimes are inherently divisible creatures, and without hesitation, it split itself into countless pieces, merging with other members of its kind and bestowing intelligence upon the pack.

And so, these slimes gained intelligence and became the Sticky Clan.

However, its biological characteristics remained unchanged, and naturally, it did not produce any particularly powerful individuals.

They are considered a type of demon simply because they possess the ability to communicate and heal their hosts' injuries and illnesses.

Good guy.

Smart power bank?

Even though the Demon race is generally less intelligent than the Sticky race, it doesn't stop them from getting inspiration.

The Sticky Clan are indeed parasitic organisms, but even when they parasitize powerful individuals, they cannot take over the other's body, let alone control the host at will.

Why can't it invade the body?

Because of the complete parasitism of the sticky race, the conditions for controlling the host are extremely harsh. They are so harmless that the rate of complete parasitism is extremely slow, and during the parasitism process, if the host has even the slightest resistance, complete parasitism cannot be completed.

Unless the host is in a vegetative state with no resistance while maintaining survival, allowing them to slowly and silently erode the host for several years, success is not possible.

But the problem is, who the hell sleeps with someone for years without any warning?

Haha! Such a harmless, so fragile, and so all-powerful smart power bank!

Who wouldn't want to have that?

Therefore, as a branch of the demon race, the Nian tribe was naturally conscripted to participate in the war between humans and demons.

During the battle, each of the demon soldiers carried a power bank, hiding it in a part of their body that was not easily attacked, and integrated it with the sticky race. On the one hand, it could heal themselves in time when they were injured, and on the other hand, it could be used as an external brain to help them strategize.

Thus, after the great war, in order to commemorate the outstanding contributions of the Ninja Clan, some individuals of the Ninja Clan were even granted demonic eyes by the Demon Emperor, Chihirika, and became Demon Kings.

However, as we all know, war is a game for heroes.

As a demon race without particularly powerful abilities, even though some of them possessed demonic eyes, the Nian Clan still lacked any heroes who would be famous enough to be remembered in history.

This changed with the birth of an individual known as Pita.

Bita was born different.

He was glanced at by the God of Destruction and gained the power of the divine child.

The ability is: Dream Building.

He can drag any living being he comes into contact with into a dream, read their subconscious, and then meticulously construct the dream to trap them within it.

With this ability, the life forms that Bita comes into contact with are no different from those in a vegetative state.

Then Bitar can take the opportunity to completely erode the host, and after several years, completely take over the other's body.

Logically speaking, with such amazing abilities combined with the parasitic nature of the Sticky Clan, Bita should be able to live a very powerful life in the Six-Sided World.

However, after Bita awakened his divine child abilities, no one guided him, and he had no idea that he possessed the ability to create dreams, nor did he know the wonders of it.

This guy discovered that his abilities were even guided by a god.

—As we all know, all successful people in the Six-Sided World have a heart that yearns for the vastness of the world and wants to leave home. Paul is like this, Rocchi is like this, and the savior Lala is like this. So, little Bitta is naturally no exception.

As a child, driven by curiosity, Bita left his hometown for an adventure, but nearly died.

When he first saw something called a river, he was so excited that he plunged into it. As a member of the Sticky Clan, he was immediately swept away by the rushing water, leaving only the life core of the Sticky Clan.

The mucus that makes up the bodies of the Mucus Tribe is very important to them; it is their teeth, organs, skin, and, more importantly, their hunting tools.

Even if the core remains, and the Pita burrows into the fish's body, it cannot protect itself from the corrosive effects of stomach acid and will inevitably die.

Bita drifted along the river, not daring to take refuge in anything, and could only wait for death in despair.

Even after exhausting itself, it still couldn't escape the fate of being mistaken for food by fish and swallowed whole.

Just when all hope seemed lost, it fell unconscious inside the fish's belly.

Then, I had a dream.

I dreamt of a deity.

The gods told him how to use water to reshape his body, how to use the divine child power that already existed within him, and even taught him how to construct dreams.

Bita awoke and immediately dragged the fish into a seven-second nightmare.

The fish spat him out, and Bita immediately used the external water flow to reshape his body, sending himself back into the fish's belly.

Then they took control of it.

Manipulating a fish to be eaten by a bigger fish, manipulating a bigger fish to surface and be caught by a bird, manipulating a bird to crash into the Demon King's palace and be twisted in the head and eaten immediately.

Ultimately, they gained control of the Demon King's body.

Everything was accomplished with the advice of the gods.

After dominating the Demon King and acquiring his body, memories, and abilities, and inheriting his tyranny, Bita felt an unprecedented sense of freedom.

They freely believe they are omniscient and omnipotent, freely kill and plunder, and experience this simple and unpretentious joy.

Someone tried to stop him; that person was Laxus, a comrade-in-arms who fought alongside the Demon Lord to the very end in the Battle of Laplace.

The Seven Great Powers – Death itself.

Upon returning from his travels, he immediately noticed something amiss with his former comrade-in-arms. Although the man was tyrannical, he never took pleasure in killing.

Still basking in his powerful sense of self, Bita readily admitted that he was not the Demon King, but rather a member of the Sticky Clan who had stolen his body.

They shouted things like, "Come and fight, then let's fight!"—words that were hard to understand.

Then he was instantly killed by the opponent.

There wasn't even time to react.

Bita was shocked and quickly broke free from the Demon King's body, parasitizing one of his subordinates who was watching the battle, and escaped in the chaos.

Only then did he learn to restrain himself. Even after changing to several more powerful hosts, he never let his guard down, kept his desires in check, and tried to survive.

That's what Bita thought.

But he forgot one thing.

Once Bita leaves its host, the host's immersive dream will shatter, and Bita will regain control of its body.

The demon king was not dead; Laxus used a healing magic tool to keep him alive.

Nobody knows what they said.

However, the Demon King's resentment and hatred were all conveyed to Laxus.

The latter issued a warrant for Bita's arrest, and somehow found out about Bita's whereabouts after waking up one day. Like a leech, he relentlessly pursued and killed him.

Pitta was terrified and ran away as fast as he could. But his fellow tribesmen, who had no ability to parasitize, suffered greatly. The Sticky Clan was wiped out by the enraged Laxus, leaving only Pitta alive.

This enraged Bitta, who devised a meticulous revenge plan. He parasitized an acquaintance of Laxus, using this as a means to get close to Laxus and find an opportunity to pull him into the dream world he had created.

However, something unexpected happened.

Laxus is fishing.

He burned the bones of his demon king friend, which were still filled with intense resentment, and made them into a bone ring that could break through illusions.

In her dream, Bitta confronted Laxus and nearly died.

But Bita's luck was truly extraordinary.

Unexpectedly, Laxus's acquaintance was even more extraordinary than him. The latter knew of Bita's existence, but allowed it to parasitize him only so that he could see Laxus again, with whom he had a broken relationship.

After saying this, he released Bita, letting him live on a passing stray dog and escape again.

After this ordeal, Bitta felt he had absolutely no hope of defeating Laxus, but if things continued this way, and Laxus found him again, he would definitely be killed.

In his anxiety, he went to a dream to ask the gods.

The gods offered a new suggestion, instructing him to parasitize a dragon, leave the Demon Continent, and hide in the SS-rank dungeon "Hell" on the Heavenly Continent.

The maze's environment was so harsh that even demons would have a hard time surviving, but it was nothing to Bita, who was a slime.

He can achieve immortality simply by constantly changing his host in the maze.

Sure enough, Bita found peace there.

Laxus couldn't find him either.

Time continued to pass, and this last remaining member of the Sticky Clan lived in "Hell" for countless years.

It's considered stable.

Until two years ago, a deity who hadn't visited him for a long time entered his dream on his own initiative.

"Bita, it's been a long time."

"Long time no see, God and Man."

"I have something that's been bothering me lately, and I hope you can help me."

Bita hesitated.

The god who had once cared for him offered his help, and he thought it was only natural to agree, but he was terrified of Laxus.

The god smiled and said, "Laxus is dead. It's alright. You are safe."

"Dead?? When?"

"it's been a while."

Bita let out a long sigh of relief, but then he was faced with a dilemma. He looked at his body, which was now inextricably linked to the Lord of the Hell Labyrinth.

"The rules of the maze prevent me from leaving."

"It's alright, I will send someone to rescue you and return you to nature."

"Nature?"

"Hehe. It's the outside world."

"Great!"

"You help me corrupt someone, possess their body, and serve me. After several hundred years, once my request is fully fulfilled, we will be even. How about it? Several hundred years should be a short time for you, right? After that, you'll be free to roam the world!"

"Of course! Thank you for your help, God of Men."

"Hehe. You're welcome."

Thus, the god and man vanished from Bita's dream.

Until a year ago, a monkey-faced demon named Keith appeared before him.

"You are Bita? I will take you out of here on the advice of the gods and men."

Bita exclaimed eagerly, "Okay!"

"You know who our target is this time, right? A human named Allen Boreas Greirat."

"Oh? A human, as long as he's not a demon king."

"Heh, I heard the opponent is even more terrifying than the Demon King?"

"?!"

"But I will provide you with a safe opportunity to get close to him. You just need to follow me, and then you will parasitize the body of a man named Pacus, then fall into a deep sleep and wait for the opportunity to come."

"it is good."

"We need to hurry, otherwise, once Alan Boreas meets Randolph and gets the bone..."

"That brow bone??"

"Oh? Hmm, you didn't know? It's nothing. Anyway, we need to let your parasitic ability run rampant before the other side finds a way to counter the illusion. We need to let him sleep soundly for the next few years, and then completely take over his body to ensure a future moment."

The monkey-faced man mumbled something, which Bita couldn't hear clearly.

All he knew was that he was about to gain true freedom.

So and so.

After escaping from "hell," riding a dragon away from the Sky Continent, crossing mountains and seas, and arriving in the Dragon King Kingdom, he parasitized a chubby little boy named Pacus.

Fell into a deep sleep.

I do not know how long it has been.

"Knock knock."

The gods visited his dream again.

"Bita, it's time to wake up."

So, Bita let his dream-building abilities take effect and instantly pulled Pakus into a dream.

He took over Pakus's body.

He saw a young man with white hair and black eyes.

He saw those sharp eyes.

There was even an unguarded smile on his face?
Ha ha.

These are the seven great powers?
Frail human beings.

With that thought in mind, he broke free from Pakus's eyes, ears, nose, and lips and wrapped his head around them.
