"I'll join, I'll become a vampire!" The man answered quickly, his voice shaking as he stared into Jack's deep crimson eyes.
"All right, wait a while then," Jack said as he turned to question the rest of the kidnapped victims.
No one wanted to die, so the choice was easy.
Jack knew that it wasn't a choice at all, he had been given the same ultimatum before, and this wasn't giving someone a choice.
After hearing the positive reply, Jack nodded and turned around to look at the mob boss.
He was still laid out on the ground motionless.
'Unless he transforms then I'll have to kill these guys either way, so let's hope this works.' Jack thought to himself as he stood in front of the downed gangster leader.
For a minute or so there were no changes to the man.
A moment later however that changed, the body on the floor had started convulsing in what looked to be a pain.
For a moment the only sound that could be heard in the forest was the thrashing of the convulsing body on the ground.
That soon changed as well when the man started screaming his lungs out, it was a harrowing scream of pain that pierced through the silence of the forest.
His scream clearly frightened the victims behind Jack as they started crying their hearts out and praying to whatever deity they believed in, for saving, for someone, anything to come to save them however the world wasn't fair.
There was no one coming to their rescue, they were deep inside a jungle with dead bodies of criminals all around them and a monster who would soon turn his attention toward them.
The screams continued for a while, Jack didn't move toward the body and instead simply stood in place as he awaited the full transformation.
Finally, after what was around five minutes, the man stopped screaming, his body finally still.
Using his hands, the man raised himself up slowly.
Once fully off the ground and standing straight, he looked at his hands before turning his attention to Jack.
Looking at the man, Jack saw the differences that had been made from the transformation.
The man had red eyes, though they didn't have the slitted feline form of Jacks own eyes.
Fangs were protruding off his mouth and the man's nails had visibly grown, turning into makeshift claws, his ears had gained a pointed look as well.
Those were the only differences in the man's outward appearance.
For a moment, there was silence before the man laughed his lungs out.
"Thank you, I can feel the power coursing through my body, but this is a mistake, now I can finally crush you. Fucking shithead." The man said before he rushed to Jack, his speed was supernatural, managing to close the distance between him and Jack almost instantly.
*Bang*
The man's fist connected with Jack's face.
"That's right you dumb fucker!" The man said before the next words got stuck in his throat.
Jack hadn't moved a single inch, he was simply glaring at the man who still had his balled-up fist in Jack's face.
*Schlq*
*Thump*
The man's arm fell onto the ground, completely severed from his body.
For a moment the man didn't seem to recognize what had transpired however that soon changed as he held what was left of his arm and screamed his lungs out in pain.
"Did you really think you would be stronger than me? I simply gave you a minuscule amount of my blood." Jack said as walked closer to the man and crouched so he could look him in the face.
*Schlqk*
*Thump*
This time it was the man's head that had flown off from his body.
"I don't know whether that is enough to kill you but this should be enough," Jack said as he extended his hand toward what remained of the man's body and then clenched it, forming a fist.
*Shlpurt*
With a disgusting sound, Jack and the rest of the victims heard the man's innards get squashed as the very blood inside his body turned against him.
"That should either kill you or take you some time to recover from, if you still get up then I guess I'll just have to burn you whole," Jack mumbled before turning to the five victims.
"I'll be turning you now, if you do what he just did then I'll kill every single one of you, even if only one made the mistake. Got it?" Jack said as he addressed the group.
A round of choked-up yeses and nods was all Jack needed before he started the transformation process for all of them.
Merely twenty minutes later, Jack found himself in front of five newly transformed monsters.
[ Ding! ]
[ User has unlocked a new title! ]
'Hmm,' Jack hummed to himself, interested in the outcome as well as excited.
Opening the title menu, Jack quickly scrolled down to the newly gained title.
[ Vampire Leader ]
[ Buffs: Charisma +1 ]
[ Grants the user the ability to enslave his minions ]
[ This Title is evolvable, the more minions under the user's command, the stronger it grows. ]
'That's great.' Jack thought before he quickly equipped the new title, finally getting rid of the [ Kidnapped ] Title he had equipped until now.
'Removing my Kidnapped title by basically kidnapping others.' Jack thought to himself as he lightly shook his head.
Getting closer to his newly gained minions as the system called them, Jack placed his hand on each of their heads.
[ Enslavement has been successful. ]
[ Enslavement has been successful. ]
[ Enslavement has been successful. ]
[ Enslavement has been successful. ]
[ Enslavement has been successful. ]
He had gained a skill named Enslavement as soon as he had equipped the title, putting it to use had been pretty simple.
Simply touch a vital spot of the target and activate the skillfully.
"What are your names?" Jack finally asked the minions.
'Or would calling them slaves fit them better' Jack thought to himself.
He felt a pang of guilt however he knew that letting them live would not have been a good choice, so this was in a way his mercy upon them.
