YM778.TV Chapter 57: One-Sided
\'Oh, what a cool special effect\' Reign thought to himself, amused by the situation.
He couldn\'t help but find it ironic—if he were human, he might have fled in fear like a frightened child. But as a monster, getting scared by something like this would be rather funny.
"WOOOF WOOOF WOOOF," Wick barked, seeking refuge behind Reign, clearly sensing something bad.
"Don\'t worry, I\'m here," Reign reassured, placing a comforting hand on Wick\'s back.
He also took a step back, just in case something jump out of the wall.
Better safe than sorry, he figured, deciding it was wise to tread carefully in this mysterious place.
[Ding]
[System detected condensed negative energy. Would you like to absorbed it?]
The system notification filled Reign with happiness. Coming to this place was a good decision after all.
Without wasting any time, he hurriedly said yes, and like a vacuum, all the negative energy started to converge in his stomach.
He could feel his body growing stronger, the surge of power invigorating him. After a while, constitutive notifications chimed in.

[Congratulations, Host, for Absorbing Negative Energy. You are rewarded with 10 skill points.]
"Sweet," Reign chuckled aloud.
Ten skill points was a huge boost, especially considering he had only gained one by absorbing Wick\'s negative energy.

Seeing his rewards , he started to allocate his points fast. The danger was not over yet; Reign still hadn\'t figured out where that unsettling sound of footsteps before was coming from .
He would be an idiot to think he could simply wander into a place like this and reap the rewards without consequences. There had to be something more sinister lurking in the shadows, waiting to challenge him.

"This power," Reign murmured, opening and closing his palm as he felt the surge of negative energy coursing through his body.
It was a satisfying feeling, and he could sense that the energy within his body had become more condensed.
If he combined this energy with his Claw Bullet skill, even hard metal would be penetrated effortlessly. And with Claw Barrage, he would become like a walking tank equipped with a cannon and a high-powered armor-piercing Gatling gun.
Right now, his full power attack would be twice as strong as Anna\'s Blood Bullet. His growth was mind blowing .
\'Those three will regret letting me go,\' a sadistic smile formed on his skull-like face. The reason he wanted to grow stronger quickly was so he could exact his revenge on them.
Just imagining the fear-streaked face of that long-haired girl who had badmouthed him was enough to bring a twisted sense of joy to Reign. He relished the thought of torturing her until she begged for death.
In fact, he would be disappointed if she died too quickly. He wanted her to suffer, to endure every ounce of pain and anguish he could inflict upon her. Only then would he feel truly satisfied.
"EEEEEEEEK!" Suddenly, a loud wailing sound echoed from the distance, jolting Reign from his twisted imagination. It was like the sound of multiple cries, and he could hear it loudly approaching.
\'I know it, something owned those negative energies. Too bad I stole all its hard work,\'Reign chuckled, not feeling any guilt at all.
A demon must have been cultivating all this negative energy like a farm, and he ended up reaping all the benefits. Talk about bad luck.
When the Demon finally got close , Reign saw a mangled corpse around 10 feet tall , it has a humanoid body ,with multiple faces , all crying in pain.
"Oh, a Weeping Monster," he thought to himself. It was a good thing that he had memorized such information from the system before selecting his race.
A creature with multiple crying faces was known as a "weeping monster." These creatures are said to have several faces, each expressing intense sorrow or distress, making them a haunting sight to behold.
Normally, this monster would be deadly when encountering humans, as it could evoke emotions such as fear, and sadness.
But for a monster like Reign? The cryings was just a little bit annoying.
"What an unlucky piece of shit," Reign declared, activating his Death Aura.
The negative energy emanating from him filled the area, enveloping the hostile monster.
As the aura took hold, the creature\'s movements slowed and its strength weakened, forcing it to kneel before the sheer might of Reign\'s power
"EEEEEEEEK!"
"EEEEEEEEK!"
"EEEEEEEEK!"
It began crying louder and louder, trying to intensify its skill.
But how could Reign\'s Death Aura be defeated by mere cries?
"Stop crying, you\'re too noisy," Reign spat, annoyed by the creature\'s incessant wailing.
With a swift kick, he sent the creature flying, crashing into the wall with a loud thud.
But it was not over yet.
Reign walked closer towards it, grabbing one of its faces and grinding it against the wall as he ran.
Black blood gushed out from the weeping monster, but Reign didn\'t stop.
Why was he doing such a brutal act? Simply because he wanted to power trip.
"Yelp," Wick whimpered from the sidelines, making a mental note never to anger his master, or face the consequences.
After Reign was done, the Weeping monster lay on the brink of death. Weak and completely defeated.
It had been born from all the suffering that had occurred in this place, cultivating negative energy to evolve further.
But how could it have predicted that all its hard work would be stolen by a more terrifying monster than itself?
"P—please avenge us," The weeping monster talk, at its final moment it was able to convey its feelings.
Reign paused for a moment, feeling a twinge of pity as he sensed the creature\'s pain.
BAM!
Without hesitation, Reign stepped on one of its faces, completely destroying it.
"Bro, I kill humans like it\'s nothing. You really think begging would work?" Reign laughed maniacally, his voice echoing through the chamber.
With a sadistic grin, he began stomping on each face one by one.
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
Blood burst forth, staining the entire floor with its dark hue as he relentlessly crushed each face like it was some kind of bubble wrap.
When the last face was finally smashed, a notification chimed in.
[System: Would you like to devour Demon Aura to earn skill points ]
[Yes] or [No]
"Yes"
[+3 skill Points]
"What a haul," he remarked, pretending to be exhausted as he stretched his arms. However, he couldn\'t conceal the eerie grin that spread across his face.
He was really pleased by this turn of events and rather enjoyed the idea of bullying his enemies in such a manner.
