Ranks and Remorse
Cups on the floor,blood bags in the corner;red stains designing the entire room.
The whole place was in shambles and it looked like fight just happened.
Confusion was etched on the face of Vincent.
He looked around and tried to recollect what happened,but he couldn't.
Vincent stood up and he noticed his line of sight was different.
Deciding to temporarily ignore the bags and the stains on the wall he went into the bathroom.
The bathroom was in a better shape than other room,touching his forehead he noticed his hands were wet and there were covered in some substance,he skittered to the mirror and once he saw himself he froze.
"Ho..?"
Red stains covered his mouth,his shirt was non-existent,his entire arm was also covered in red stains in fact they were dripping.
He felt something in between his teeth bringing out it was a piece of...meat??
He felt his body palpitate,sweat covered his forehead,he gripped the sink and tried his best to remember what ha-
*DUM..DUM..DUM*
Like a broken dam the memories kept pouring,the magnitude of what he did washed over him.
He slowly walked away from the sink and covered his mouth.
Denying the possibility he ran downstairs and made his way to the exit.
Once outside he saw it all or what was left of it.
*BLERGHHH!!!!
Unable to bear the scene he threw up,he tried so hard to puke out EVERYTHING ,but his body kept on rejecting him.
???? Ago.
After coming out of Vincent consciousness. Jathaniel threw Vincent body into a coffin and teleported to a town nearby and decided to occupy an abandoned house.
Once inside he proceeded to sit quietly in the corner waiting patiently for Vincent to physiologe.
Deciding to kill time he brought out a book and began reading.
An hour into the book Jathaniel had a wild idea.
'Can't I just speed up the darn process I don't have all day.'
He brought the eye of chronos, raised it up.
Waving his hands he performed hand signs and used the,eye of chronos on a smaller scale.
A faint green light covered the coffin and beneath it was a magic circle with a long needle; the needle within the magic circle kept ticking every 1 minute.
"That should work."
Jathaniel looked at the coffin visibly sastified with his ingeniousness.
3 chapters into the book the coffin looked like it has aged decades.
"Should be done in a few minutes."
Tapping his lips Jathaniel felt a bit thirsty so he reached into his pocket dimension.
"No,no...."
"This shou-....What This?"
Jathaniel reached out for the object and brought it out of the pocket dimension.
"....."
It was a cracked orb that seem to be filled with a green viscous liquid or what left of it.
Jathaniel looked at the orb then at the coffin,orb-coffin,orb-coffin.
Jathaniel began scratching his head contemplating whether to go through or just stop.
"If I do this it shouldn't affect him right??"
Jathaniel felt stuck,after what seem to be eternity he decided to go through with it.
Jathaniel took the orb and cracked it open,immediately the orb was open the viscous liquid within moved on it own and tried to escape Jathaniel grasp.
"Really that the gratitude you show."
Scoffing Jathaniel willed the air around and trapped the liquid in an air vacuum.
Jathaniel carefully moved the green viscous substance into the coffin.
Once inside the substance seeped into Vincent skin and made it way into his system.

Seeing that Vincent was almost done physiologing he took him out of the coffin and gave him blood bags.
'That should calm his thirst when he wakes up.'
"Time to return the eye."
Snapping his finger a portal materialised behind Jathaniel and he stepped in.

Present.
After that I woke up drank the blood bags,but it wasn't enough,I needed more,I craved more.
Unsastified with the blood bags I went outside,then proceeded to kill everyone one in the town.
"Why....I don't get it."
With all that said and done I don't feel any remorse,even after I killed all this people,apart from my initial puking, I didn't feel anything,in fact I felt free,full and sastified.
"Ha...hahaha Am a monster."
With my head down,stream of tears kept pouring out not because of remorse or regret no,no for the fact that I was free,unchained,evicted from the morals,from the inclinations of a human.
I could feel it am not what I once was,I am different,am a monster.
In the end it doesn't matter whether good or bad,monster or human,what matters is strength and for the path I want to walk,no other race is more perfect than this.

*FWUSHHHH!!!
Looking at the once vibrant town in flames I felt a pang of pain but it only lasted for a shirt while before I dismissed it.
Looks like he had the mind to leave an extra clothe with,a map and some cash for me.
"Status screen."
"Status scr-"
I almost forgot part of the deal was a bit of change to my screen.
"Interface."
Status screen it goes by many name to elves akashic record, the dwarves morgon manuals or m.g.l and the humans it called status screen.
My display have really change to say the least.
[Interface]
[Name: Admin demands the user changes his name.]
"Seriously, don't understand why he us hellbent on the name."
[Rank: G]
[Strength: F]
[Agi:F+]
[Mana:-F]
[Int:288]
[Phy:F+]
[Per:G]
[Charm:600]
[Cap:???]
Let's clear some things; ranks range from
Bronze>iron
Iron>silver
G>f
F>e
E>d
D>c
C>b
B>a
A>s
S>ss
Sss>???
Each rank is decided into -,the neutral and the +.
But my jump was pretty high and my stats makes no sense, I went from iron to G.
In a single night;something that also change was my cap limit,you see every creature was born with a limit and for me before it was D,that us u can't go beyond that and ranking up his extremely difficult, but know my cap have no limit just like the m.c.
"I really wonder what race I am."
Skipping out those thoughts I took out the map and began making my way towards civilisation.
