Lord of the Flies

Within a small clearing of a lush jungle in which the size of the plant were ginormous stood 15. His recently washed jumpsuit a renewed orange color, still slightly damp from the spring-water it was washed in. Before him lie a mountain of fly's. A testimony to the work he had put in throughout the last hour.

-- A Pyramid of Hand-Crushed Flies--

- Corpses - 10,000

Comment - A Pyramid of Crushed Flies.... Hand-crushed by none other than their master.... Quite the strange sight, even stranger it its geometrical symmetry.

Interestingly enough the pile of dead insects was shaped into a perfect pyramid. Each side had the exact same width... the work of 15 and his impressive stacking skills. In all actuality crushing every single fly was a total waste of time for 15, but for some reason he felt it rather soothing. 15 was pleased as he paced back and forth observing his work...

Hmmmm.... Perfect (ง'̀-'́)ง

After walking around the strange looking pyramid 15 double checked the systems appraisal to make sure the sacrifice was perfect. After satisfying his sudden craving for perfection 15 took out the blood medallion out of his orange sleeve.

-- Blood Medallion ---

Abilitys-

-After sacrificing enough corpses allows the owner to summon creatures from the blood gods domain ( minimum sacrifice must be 1000 individual corpses )

-Certain sacrifices may may lead to rewards from the blood domain.....

-Allows for the sacrifice of Corpses and blood... These sacrifices may be rewarded....

Almost as if it couldn't wait to devour a feast the skull enlayed upon the medallion grinned even more. Its jaw becoming deformed into an almost impossible smile. A system notification appeared in-front of 15 eyes as he held the medallion over his head.

-- Sacrifice notification --

- You have prompted a sacrifice to the blood medallion of

10,000 unranked creatures

continue ?

- Yes -

- No -

OOOooo.... it even asks politely for the sacrifice. How nice, I knew this thing was good business when I found it.

A sick smile slowly crept upon 15s face as he pressed "yes" on the system notification without hesitation. A gentle red glow suddenly illuminated the clearing. A sudden silence enveloped the nearby wildlife and the sounds of an unknown primate screeching choked out in the distance. A formless pressure descended upon the nearby area and the wildlife. A sinister look crept upon the vegetation as red veins started to encroach upon lush green leaves.

A different change was occurring at the same time to the strangely shaped pile of flies. Each individual fly the size of a marble was currently inflating. A point of deep red light was emanating from each and every one of the ten thousand. After some time it all started to slowly liquefy into a deep crimson liquid that was slowly spreading outwards. Strangely enough although the although the original sacrifice only had a volume of 4 cubic meters, the blood-like liquid spread across to ground to create a lake with a diameter of 1000 meters. As the blood slowly spread both the ground and the plants in the vicinity seemed to be pulled under, making was for a rather large and seemingly deep lake of crimson color.

As all of this was happening 15 was comparing the colors of the lake to the roses he had seen earlier in the day as he washed within the natural spring earlier in the day. Oblivious to the deathly aura that began to surround the medallion of blood. That and the fact that it was floating in the air its eyes gazing at 15 with hints of desire as if it was contemplating something. Suddenly its eyes lost its luster and it dropped back into sleeve. A strange laugh floated off the surface of the crimson lake... Soon followed by a booming male voice...

" Muahahahahahahah ..... I do appreciate the gift of those lovely souls.... although a bit weak, that is to be expected of unranked souls... but their numbers did make up for it "

Startled and brought out of his own thoughts 15 started to observe the changes to the surroundings.

Oh oh wow.... So the red lake thing can talk. Looks like the sacrifices did quite alot. The plants seem a bid different but I cant quite put my finger on it.... * sigh...Oh well might as well ask about my rewards and the difference of souls this mans mumbled about. I wonder if I can make this lake even bigger If i donate some bigger....

" HEY !!!! MR BLOOD POND THINNGGY I READ THE WEIRD MEDALLION THING IT SAYS IF I FEED YOU YOU OWE ME SOMETHING !!! "

After about a few seconds a ripple was seen floating upon the surface of the strange red lake.... Soon an audible sigh escaped from the waters of the lake, followed by a response. This time the voice came vibrating across the lake a little less loud and a little more resigned...

" Sigh* Rewards, Rewards, Rewards Its all you guys ever talk about.... though I did appreciate the effort you made with the pyramid thingy so I can give you credit.."

" Yup, at my old place there was this nice really lady..... Said she worked at the cafeteria, she would always cut up my food into these nice shapes you know ??? Strangely enough after a month she never came back..... "

A somber tone overtook 15s voice for a second before rebounding almost instantly...

" Well anyway ! since I liked my food cut up into cute shaped Id think you would too "

｡◕‿‿◕｡

" Hmmm... thats actualy quite nice of you..... Its been so long since Ive been able to have such a nice conversation with someone.... "

The strange voice echoed again after pausing for a second

" You know what I would love to send over some minions for you right now but...."

" Yes ???"

" Have you been to a kakazumi village recently ??"

"Bear like ??? Cute ?? Blue blood ??"

" Yea those are the ones....You remember the temple thing they had ??? Kinda sinister.. Evil aura ?? "

15 had to think for a bit... he did see a temple thing surrounded by another redish pool. It wasn't as big as the one before him either. Couldn't talk either... but that was besides the point.

" I do remember a temple... but evil ??? "

" Never-mind you wouldn't be able to tell ... Anyway there's a fun surprise inside .... If you find it ill make sure you get a present you wont be able to forget... In the end it would help both of us..."

" Oh Sure !!! but..."

15's face fell as he remembered what had happened a day ago...

" That bear priest thing was quite tough... I barley was able to grab the medallion thing..."

" YOU DID WHAT ???? nevermind.... anyway.... you know what... Ill lead the way to the village and on top of that ill give you something that will help you out a bit... All I want is for you to sacrifice that priest to me... although you gave me many souls, they were all unranked.. "

" Oh yea.... I remember this priest thing was ranked as .... Stone i think ??? whats the difference between stone and unranked ?? "

" Well when you make a blood sacrifice its not the blood that matters but the souls. By making a mass sacrifice and giving up the physical bodies of those you hunt it allows me to do something with the souls. I take half for a physical form, and I use half to create something as payment. The more powerful the soul the more I have to work with. As for the rankings are based on how evolved a life form is. Levels are based on strength. A stone life-form has evolved their soul once."

" OOOOhhhh ok .... Now were is this thing that you said would help me??"

"....."

A portion of the blood lake started to boil and bubble before 15. Soon the color started to fuse together and took shape into what appeared to be a small blood red kitchen knife.

-- A helping hand --

" OH MY GOD !!! ITS SOOOOO PRETYYYYYY !!!! "

And so after after some miracle granted by divine benevolence the strange lake managed to calm down 15.

----------------------

A strange sight filled the jungle. A river of blood slowly started to flow through the underbrush drowning all the vegetation and staining the ground red. All it passed became red and vicious in nature.

-- Blood Corruption Curse --

This area is suffering from Blood Corruption curse status effect

- For a price this curse will boost the physical power of all blood corrupted creatures.

A small blue monkey descended from a now red leafed palm. Curious it approached the blood red river sniffing and grunting as it shuffled forward. Bending down against its better nature it extended its tongue and lapped at the crimson waters. Its beady black eyes sparkling, as if the water was invigorating. Well before it began to twitch and fall on its back, pupils rolling back into its tiny blue head. As its body began to shake more and more rapidly, its muscles began to expand and its fur took a red hue. Its teeth began to sharpen, and its claws began to elongate. The original pure black eyes began to take a sinister appearance, as thick yellow veins began to spread.

After about five minutes of desperate screeching, twitching, and growth; the original cute and benign creature was no more. Its size more than doubled, its originally cute face had dissipated as gigantic teeth and raging yellow eyes appeared. Its original soft lapis lazuli colored fur was replaced a rough ruby red coat. Its originally small and chubby stature was replaced with one of bulking muscle. From head to toe not a single part of this small primate was left untouched, inside and out it was a completely different beast.

-- Mutated Blood Azure Ape --

Notes - Formerly a regular Azure Ape this curious fellow was forever changed as it made a questionable life decision. Affected by a blood mutation its grown ten times as strong as its previous self, and 10 times as irrefutable. All non blood affiliated creatures better stay our of its sight as this big guy wont deny a free meal.

The small ape wasn't the only thing effected by this transformation, as scenes like this occurred within a kilometre of everywhere the strange river passed. Everything from a harmless flower to a pesky mosquito was effected. Gaining in size and strength but also gaining an irresistible urge to beat the living shit out of everything in sight.

Floating upon the offending was a small makeshift raft. This raft had no sails or oars, as it needed none. The river seemingly pushing it along. Upon this raft was 15 who was loudly conversing without a care in the world to the strange voice that had followed him ever since the sacrifice. Currently this strange voice was racking its brains in an attempt to figure out what the hell was up with this strange boy.

" Hey. Boy. On your stat-board. Under status. Does it say anything strange ?"

" Strange... everyone used to ask me that question... Well my statboard says the same thing the people at the old place did, apparently i have " psychopathic tendency's" but the system also says I have a pure heart ... what ever that means... "

" Oh that explains a lot "

" really mr river, lake thing ???"

" You know what .... you can call me Heins "

" Oh wow Mr. Heins you told me your name... Call me 15.... wait now that we know each others names does that mean were friends... Lets be the best of friends ... Heins"

------------------

Within a deep dark abyss a loud chuckling noise rang out as the air began to vibrate and space began to shake. The screams of millions of souls rang out as the shaking had disturbed them.

" Its looks like that little twerp has found an interesting little friend."

A deep sigh rang out within the abyss.

" URggg Back to work I guess..... though It wouldn't hurt to keep an eye on those two...
