*CRUNCH* *CRUNCH*
"Mmm…"
I was currently finishing up another deer that I caught, well, this is actually the fourth deer I ate today. When not even an hour has passed I kept getting hungry every second.
*GULP*
The juicy and chewy texture of this meat is disgusting and delicious at the same time. If I was in my human body right now I would've been throwing my guts out. I try not to think about it too much.
'I can't go out of this forest and become hungry again. I might eat every person I see and I don't want that. This hunger is deadly to me and everybody else near me.' (Almost one mile away from him.)
Finishing up the leg of the poor deer, I pulled up my system screen. Mentally clicking on the [Race] options.
[....]
[ *Conditions not met.* ]
I clicked on [The Horrors] system ability
[....]
[ *Conditions not met.* ]
'For fucks sake! Tell me the conditions then!'
[…]
'Fuck. I wish my system was at least sentient enough to answer my questions when I ask them.' I grumble
Cutting through the air on all fours I went looking for more food, I found it easier to run on fours. This time, the god of luck was on my side. I found a pack of 6 deer, they didn't even get the chance to run before I tore off all their heads, blood staying on my already bloody body.
'Time to eat.' I thought while already finishing eating the third dead deer.
*PING*
[Time before next hunger: 10 hours
Your hunger has subsided…]
'Finally! Now that I don't have to eat constantly I can think clearly again, it's time to find out where the end of this forest is.' Which won't take long I think.
Accelerating to my max speed I ran in a straight line, accidentally breaking a tree or two in half. I stopped and looked at the ground. A walking track.
"I'm close," I said with a hideous smile
I blitzed to a sign with paper posters nailed to it. I looked at one of the papers that looked new compared to the others and ripped it off, it read "Summer camp punishment for bad teens for your children tonight! Sign your kids up for them to learn respect." Then it listed that you have to sign an agreement and some other crap.
'Hmmm, I've been thinking about what human meat tasted like, and now I could get the chance.' I know my way of thinking has been changing lately these few hours, but I still kinda feel like myself, a few changes.
It was starting to get dark and the sun was starting to set. I was gonna find a tree to lay on so I could get some shut-eye until I felt my body getting my energized all of the sudden, I looked up and all I could hear was my heartbeat pounding loudly in my chest. There was a crescent moon.
"Agh!" My body convulsed violently in pain as I fell right on my back. My bones started making creaking sounds like it was growing, my claws grew even sharper, and my pale skin slowly turned into the color gray. The area and trees were frosted over with ice. When the pain stopped I slowly got up from the ground and looked at the moon with glowing yellow eyes full of hate.
*SCREECH!*
A head-splitting screech came out of my mouth. I'm pretty sure if anyone heard it their eardrums would burst blood and they would pass out. I wanted to blow off some steam now because of the pain that ruined my mood.
*PING*
[You've gained 20 horror points.
HP: 20]
[You can only gain horror points from scaring humans and anything with sentience like humans. You can use scare points to unlock new entities.]
My mood instantly got better as soon as I finished reading. I checked [The Horrors] again and I had so many options with to choose from and the prices were insane. I saw an option with the word [filter options] and pressed it. It basically gave me the option to only see Entities with lower price range of my choice. The ones that the system were showing me were in the 100,000,000,000 points range which I had no idea how to get.
I put the price range up to 20 and only saw the names, prices, and descriptions of the Entities. I started with the bigger prices.
[ [Demodog] A strange creature from the upside down. Once fully matured it's known as the [Demogorgon].
Price: 20 ]
'I know what this one is, I've watched it from a series on Netflix. This is utterly useless to me since I'm way faster and stronger than this this could ever be. And the rest of the entities are far weaker, so I think I'll save more Horror points.'
*GRUMBLE*
"ugh." 'Who did I scare anyway? The system said that I could only scare something with sentience like humans. Then that means. There's a human nearby.' I thought with a blood-stained smile.
Spreading my senses out a male human body shape formed in my mind not too far away from me, it looked like he was carrying a hunting rifle. When I was about to end the human's life too quickly I realized I needed Horror Points too. I can't end his life too quickly or I'll gain nothing out of it but food. I'll try to drag out my hunt so I can farm him of points till I get enough.
'Yes, a perfect plan…'
*SCREEEEECH!*
[+23 HP]
If anyone was looking at the place I was thinking they would've seen me disappear from my spot like I was never there.
