{User will now be forced awake}

Vexen started to wake up. His mind was still a little groggy, and so he gave himself a slap to wake himself up. Once he was awake, he was surprised to feel no pain anywhere on his body.

He thought to himself wondering why he felt no pain and was still alive after the fall.

Thats when he heard a voice say, [Allow me to answer any questions you have.]

He thought to himself "crap are there any vampires in here"? He then heard the voice again,

[No vampires in the vicinity just you and me user]

He then realized that the voice was in his head and asked, "Okay, who are you and why did you call me user"? The voice then said,

[I am your assistant that was generated to help you on your journey as a Revenant, as for why I called you user, you are the user of the Revenant's Ascent System, you can call me Ras.]

Vexen then asked, "What is a revenant and why do I have this system"?

[Revenants are undead that are adept at sensing and wielding mana, have unlimited stamina, and must devour flesh from living beings to satisfy their hunger and stay alive. Revenants also start with a dual affinity of Mind and necrosis. Revenants only have one weakness which is water in liquid form and water magic. Whenever revenants take damage they can eat flesh to regain their vitality.]

[For the second part of the question, I cant tell you until your existence core reaches peak immortal stage.]

[Before I tell you Anything else please say status.]

Vexen then did what he was told and said, "status". A screen then appeared in his vision with the following information.

Vexen then took a chance to look at his body.

It had decayed a medium amount. He still had his organs, but you the bones in parts of his legs and arms. He also had a hole where his stomach was located. Although this would have sent someone into shock, since he had become an undead in mind and body he didn't seem bothered by it much. No, what was really bothering him was his intense hunger that made him feel like he could eat anything.

He knew what he had to do. He NEEDS to feed .
