Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System Scavenger
Atticus tumbled through the demonic portal, the world resolving into a desolate landscape bathed in an eerie red light. He had expected to be thrust into the midst of several demons immediately he came out of the portal but what he was met meet was a totally different sight.Two suns, crimson and pulsating, hung low in the blood-red sky, casting long, distorted shadows across the barren wasteland. The air crackled with a malevolent energy, a tangible presence that gnawed at Atticus's resolve. His initial anger at his situation morphed into a chilling awareness. Atticus couldn't explain why the feeling came strongly but he just knew that this wasn't just any demonic realm; this was the twisted domain of a lesser demon, a creature of raw power and primal instincts. He had expected a chaotic battlefield teeming with demonic hordes, but here, he found himself alone in a desolate expanse, a single speck of defiance in a vast canvas of desolation."Why the hell did I enter?" Atticus mutte
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System Town
The crimson sun beat down mercilessly as Atticus followed the Scavenger across the desolate wasteland. The creature, a pitiful excuse for a demon, scurried nervously ahead, its bony frame casting a skeletal shadow on the dusty ground. Atticus couldn't shake off a gnawing unease despite the meager information gleaned from their rudimentary telepathic exchange. The Scavenger's fear of Xar'Gath was palpable, painting a chilling picture of the demon lord who ruled this desolate domain. But the revelation of a potential rebellion sparked a flicker of hope within him. They crested a low rise, and the landscape shifted. In the distance, nestled amidst the jagged rocks, a sight both surprising and unsettling – a small town. Smoke curled from chimneys, casting wisps of grey into the crimson sky. Figures, a mix of humanoid and monstrous, moved about the rough-hewn buildings, a semblance of ordinary life in this bizarre realm. Atticus's gaze darted from figure to figure. Some were cle
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System Howling hyena
As Atticus walked through the town, the cacophony of shouts and haggling assaulting his ears. The air reeked of sweat, spices, and something vaguely metallic that sent a shiver down his spine. He scanned the crowd, his newfound demon tongue skill translating the rapid-fire exchanges around him. Half-bloods, demons, and even a few monstrous creatures with scales and razor-sharp claws bartered for everything from food to weapons. A new sound, the rhythmic clinking of coins, caught his attention. Unlike the spirit stones he was accustomed to, these were a deep, blood-red color, pulsing with an almost imperceptible energy. His internal system, Rhea, helpfully informed him they were called 'blood stones' – a currency fueled by demonic qi and life force. Concern filled him with this new plight. He had no such currency, and without it, even a simple stay at an inn seemed out of reach. He needed a way to earn some, and fast. His gaze fell upon a weathered tavern nestled in a corner, its
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System Grimlock
The stench of sweat, blood, and something vaguely acrid that Atticus suspected might be burnt troll sweat assaulted him as he entered the Bloodfist Arena. The rhythmic thudding that had vibrated faintly outside now pounded in his chest, a relentless drumbeat against his ribs. He squinted into the dimness, his eyes adjusting to the cavernous interior.The arena was a massive, circular space, its dusty floor ringed by tiered seating that ascended into the shadows above. In the center stood a fighting pit, its blood-stained earth surrounded by a low, iron fence. Grunts, yells, and the sickening thud of flesh on flesh echoed from the pit, punctuated by the roar of the unseen crowd. Atticus lingered by the entrance, his newfound confidence momentarily shaken. This was no mere training ground. This was a brutal spectacle, a clash of wills and bodies played out for the entertainment of a bloodthirsty audience. He could almost taste the violence hanging heavy in the air. A booming voice sh
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System The Vanguard
Atticus followed the cloaked figure through the narrow passage, the stench of damp earth and mildew filling his nostrils. The tunnel was barely wide enough for him to squeeze through, its rough-hewn walls scraping against his back. It twisted and turned for what felt like an eternity, the only light a faint, flickering glow emanating from a source unknown.Finally, the passage opened into a small, cavernous chamber. A single lantern hung from the ceiling, casting flickering shadows across the room. Atticus's eyes adjusted slowly, revealing a motley crew of figures huddled around a makeshift table fashioned from a crudely hewn plank of wood and upturned barrels. He saw a hulking demon, his crimson skin etched with intricate black tattoos, his single, cyclopean eye fixed on him with a piercing gaze. Next to him sat a wiry orc demon, his green skin and tusked jaw contrasting with the flowing robes of a human woman whose silver hair gleamed in the lantern light. A wizened gnome, his bear
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System Lilith
The following days fell into a predictable rhythm for Atticus. He endured the grueling training sessions, his body screaming in protest as he absorbed punches, kicks, and the occasional stray elbow from the motley crew of fighters. He gritted his teeth, channeling the pain into a steely resolve. Each bruise, each ache, was a badge of honor, an honor he was going to shove into every guard's ass soon enough.He had found a new way to exploit and also control his physique. He realized that the longer he could hold off on healing his body the better his physique reconstruction would be when it happened, so with the help from rhea he learned a few tricks which disabled his regeneration. Of course this made taking a beating a little harder but if he didn't disable his regeneration his physique would have defied common sense and raised flags among his training partners.In the evenings, after the arena had emptied and the last of the drunken patrons had stumbled out of the tavern, Atticus re
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System The Raid (1)
The tension in the Bloodfist Arena had become almost palpable. The next day, Atticus awoke before dawn, his body sore but his mind sharp. The looming raid on the blood stone shipment occupied every corner of his thoughts, but so did Lilith’s unsettling attention. He couldn’t afford any distractions now. He dressed quietly, slipping his journal into his shirt. The floorboards creaked under his weight as he moved towards the exit of his cramped quarters. Outside, the air was cool, a brief respite before the sun would rise and the heat of the arena would become unbearable.As he approached the training hall, the distant clanging of metal and muffled grunts signaled that others had already started their day. Atticus steeled himself, adopting his practiced limp, and entered the hall.Grimlock stood near the entrance, his hulking figure partially shrouded in shadow. He regarded Atticus with a mixture of suspicion and disdain. "Human," he grunted, "you're late."Atticus bowed his head sligh
Revenant's Slaughter: The Reaper System The raid (2)
As the hour of the raid approached, Atticus joined the rebels at their rendezvous point, a secluded grove near the bridge. The moon cast an eerie glow over the landscape, shadows stretching long and foreboding. The air was thick with tension, each member of the group aware of the risks they were taking. Atticus could feel the anticipation vibrating in the air like a taut string ready to snap.Vex moved among the rebels, his presence calm and reassuring. He gave a brief but motivational speech, reminding everyone of the importance of their mission and the impact it could have on the rebellion's success. Then, with a sharp nod, he gave the signal, and the rebels moved out, their movements swift and silent like predators on the hunt.Atticus’s heart pounded in his chest as they approached the bridge. From their vantage point, they could see the guards, their armor gleaming dully in the moonlight. The increased security was evident; there were more guards than usual, and their patrols wer
