7 Alive

The assassian looked up and found fourteen massive mountains. All manners of creature were running away. They were trampling and stepping on each other in a bid to survive. Whatever they were running from was no ordinary thing. The beasts despair was almost as if it was bursting out of the wall.

Even though the mural was damged beyond compare it was still a masterpiece.

Every single creature in the mural seemed to almost be alive.

'Wait...Alive..'

Thought the assassin.

This single thought would change the course of his entire destiny putting him on a path beyond his wildest imaginations.

Laplace was putting the finishing touch to his plan. Smoothing out the details. Making sure there was no conflict between the various steps. That they could be achieved with his current hand. Namely the RADSTAINS,communication rune,his aerial view of the battlefield,the vampiric rune and the giant runic structure which was residing in an optimized environment specifically designed for it.

Laplace was surrounded by three transparent screen. He was 'writing' on each of them with his finger.

They were similar to the touch screens present in his previous life.

He obviously didn't know about this function of the system but when he inquired to the system he got a fairly easy and convenient solution.

Not only were these screens easily accessible and convenient but anything he recorded on them would be stored in the system database. Thus,he could access it anytime he wanted.

When he found out about this convenient function he asked the system about its other functions and was surprised at the wide variety of them.

Although,most of them were locked right now but they would eventually be unlocked.

After a few minutes he waved his hand and the virtual screens disappeared without so much as a trace. He marvelled at the phenomena after all in his previous life he couldn't even be compared to an E grade mutant.

His life used to be dull and boring beyond compare…

He quickly discarded these boring thoughts and looked towards the valley where the RADSTAINS were residing right now.

After being led to this valley all they had been doing was resting and recuperating from their injuries.

During this time they haven't received a single command from that supreme existence and were starting to become a little impatient. Their desire for revenge was far too much. It was almost grinded deep into their bones.

It was at this moment that they received another message:

[SACRIFICE BLOOD AND RECEIVE THE BLOOD FAIRY'S BLESSING]

And then there was nothing else. The RADSTAINS were confused to a great extent. Their intelligence was equally comparable to humans but in their society it was a tribal system.

Although a modern man might look down upon them but they were in a dog eat dog world. Thus a system based on strength is much more suitable for an environment like this instead of society which is borne of weakness and inability.

Although you might say that measuring status based on strength is unfair but the world in itself doesn't think of good or bad,evil or righteous. It's just indifferent.

Do you really care about those germs living on your body? Similarly the world itself doesn't care. Who knows the entire universe maybe a singular organism in itself.

After thinking about it for awhile the RADSTAINS couldn't think of anything. Then one of them started to jump around like a madman and started to speak to his siblings:

'Let's just get a wild beast and use its blood as a sacrifice.'

They quickly caught a beast and cut its throat but to their disappointment nothing happened.

At this moment,another message came from the supreme being:

[SEEK...FOR THE ANSWER LIES WITH THE BLOOD ORB]

Laplace after this message completely ignored them and started to make about a hundred Vampiric Runes. Then he created a thin string and attached them to the giant runic structure.

After that he started to scatter them around the valley and attached them to any and everything. Even rocks,boulders,trees or just the grass itself was used.

'The rest depends on how early they find one of them.'

Laplace was quite sure that the RADSTAINS were going to find at least one of them within a day. After all,he had scattered a hundred of them.

A blue bird with a faint greenish hue around its eyes perched on top of a tree. It was about the size of a glass bottle. There was a worm in its mouth and it took the worm towards its nest. There were three baby chicks twittering loudly. None of them had any fur on them yet but they would start to grow soon.

As the bird was feeding the worm to its children a faint shadow bumped into the tree immediately frightening the bird who quickly flew away.

The shadow which bumped into the tree was an escaping green panther. Its fur slick and smooth. A cruel golden glint in its eyes and a tail which would sway instinctively all the time.

But right now its appearance was extremely wretched. It had a massive gash on its lower abdomen and one of its eyes was bleeding. It was escaping from an azure stag. It was the same stag with the hummingbird mark on its forehead.

Stags were herbivorous by nature but this stag was apparently chasing a great green panther and to top it off the panther was trying to escape from it.

But eventually the panthers injuries were too grievous and it collapsed. As the hummingbird stag came forward. An entirely unexpected circumstances were presented before its eyes.

The panthers blood was actually floating and flew into a tree but it didn't stop there. Instead the blood in its body was also sucked out.

The stag was completely dumbfounded.

'Is this a sign…?'
