The group consisted of three people, all men. They wore leather armor, looking like mercenaries. It was impossible to tell if they were natives to the dungeon, or humans from Earth considering everyone was using similar outfits by that point.
"Cut the skeletons!" one yelled, wielding a sword, cutting a skeleton's arm.
While that happened, Damian was busy doing his blood ritual, and despite being far from the cave entrance, he could see the same things the skeletons could, so he was aware of their arrival.
'I will leave after finishing this ritual,' he thought.
After bleeding out the bear and creating the magical circle around it, Damian started chanting things in an unknown language. The chant was printed in his mind, just like the symbols to start the ritual.
Soon, the blood from the bucket started to fly, moving toward Damian's body. He absorbed every single drop of it, and a message from the system appeared before his eyes.
+5 to all Attributes.
Five points in all attributes was not a small thing at all! It was way better than Damian expected, and if the progress kept at a similar rate, then he would soon become way more powerful than his current self!
The thought of improving his power to fight against Miller excited Damian!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'This skill is incredible! A grade 4 ability and so cheap at the same time!'
Damian could not wait to hunt more beasts and drain their blood to enhance his body. He turned around, preparing to leave, but something happened!
Invasive thoughts entered his mind, and it was like another personality of himself was telling him to kill the humans who arrived in the cave!
He tried to shake it off, forget about it and leave, but the urge was immense, and while lost in a trance, the three men had already killed the skeletons, and were close to where Damian was!
Scared of having his identity seen by them, Damian used his Slime Ring, creating a long robe with a mask covering his face. It was the only thing he had time to, and Damian hoped it was enough to stop the curious eyes of those humans.
"Look, someone's there!" One of them yelled, pointing toward Damian, who was in the same spot as before.
Damian's mind was almost breaking. He was trying to fight the urge to kill the three men before him, but it was getting impossible to stop the blood thirst beast inside him.
'Screw it. I killed many beasts, so why should I feel bad about this?' Damian thought.
He turned around, facing the three men who were scared and curious as to who Damian was. They looked around in the ground, seeing the strange marks and symbols.
A lot of blood too. It was not something anyone would be comfortable with, and Damian looked scared with that mask on.
"What are you?" They asked.
Damian said nothing. He wanted to kill them, not chat with them. He moved his hand, casting multiple Bone Spear that pierced through one of them, killing the man instantly.
"Nooooo!"
They yelled and ran toward Damian with their weapons drawn, but it was impossible to do a thing. Damian easily avoided their attacks, and found it impressive that those people had survived that long.
'Killing them is doing them a favor. They would die eventually,' Damian thought.
He used his Telekinesis to make both men fly, and then wrecked their bodies into pieces, ripping their limbs, head, and torso. It was a disgusting scene, and the amount of blood inside the cave was akin to a river.
The smell, the aura, everything was sinister. Well, not for Damian. He drew the same symbols around the pile of bodies, and did the same blood spell as before, using their bloods to increase his power.
Humans were scared when killed, blood power is stronger.
+6 to all Attributes.
After that, Damian left the cave, and prepare for the fight during the night, one which got cancelled.
"What do you mean there's no coliseum fights tonight?" Damian asked the guard who took care of the coliseum's entrance.
"Berserker, calm down. No one is fighting tonight, so it is not like it's your fault. They found some bodies in a cave near the city with some strange symbols. Dark magic stuff. With the recent demonic attacks, the authorities decided to investigate, so all the wealthy people linked to illegal stuff are hidden."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnly after the guard said that did Damian realize he left the bodies there without hiding them. His mind was blank during the killing. Damian remembered doing it, but it was like he was out of control, acting by impulse.
'Fuck!' he internally cursed.
Damian was confident in his hiding abilities, but if powerful members of the local authorities decided to go after him, then even for Damian it would be hard to escape and remain hidden. The only good part was that he did no leave any blood fluid, and no one saw his face or anything.
But there was still a chance for them to find him, so Damian decided to start helping out the others in the temple, and make it a viable base as quickly as possible.
'It will be easier to hide inside the temple. I should start helping them now," Damian thought.
Aurora and Magnus were happy to know that.
"You're coming to help us tomorrow?" Aurora said as the two lied on the bed.
Magnus, who was sleeping in a smaller bed in the living room decided to get a room for himself in the same inn. He did not want to get in the way of Damian and Aurora, who might want some time alone.
"Yes, correct. I have nothing else to do tomorrow."
Aurora smiled, and then her mood drastically changed, "did you see the recent killings? First the demon, and now those corpses, mutilated… Damian, will we be safe here?"
Damian's heart's beat faster, and he did not know how to feel about it. It was a mix of guilt, but also happiness. It was strange and messed up to find joy in that, but Damian did not care about the life of those people.
He cuddled her hair and said, "we will be safe, I promise you."
That was a lie. Not even Damian knew if the madness would get to him.
