A Ghastly man with piercing red eyes walked down the grandiose hallways of his home with a frown
His pale skin was white, resembling a dead body. while his eyes were blood-red, standing out in contrast to his skin
seeing him walk down the hallway, the maids bowed and tried to move away
Except for one, a puppet in human shape
The maid couldn't talk, but the look of fanaticism looking at the man resembled an emotion no puppet should ever have.
Puppets were soulless creatures, nothing more than a shell and lifeforce.
But this one was different. it had human emotions and human features while retaining the puppets undying loyalty to their master.
Looking at his creation with a smirk, he went into his throne room
There a greasy old man greeted him. he had a kind expression on, but his eyes and mouth and vibe told you he was a cunning and cruel person
"M'lord," the geezer said "I have bad news to report"
"Speak, Atticus" The gastly man spoke, with his hands on his throne
"The assassination of that duke's daughter went wrong. all assassins were killed, and we don't know whether they know their information or not"
"Fucking rats," The gastly man said
A crash sounded as a maid hiding that was behind a wall listening to their conversation appeared in the throne room
"Don't kill m-" the maid shouted as her body went limp
Seeing her body, the gastly man laughed "Your soul is powerful, should be a good snack for later" He said, whisking her away. Looking towards his loyal minister, he frowned "I needed her inheritance magic!" He said "If you don't get hers, ill take yours," He said, walking away, leaving the shivering minister to sit down for a second
Aryan looked towards his spawn point and laughed. it has been god knows how long and he's came back to kill the mantis
2 months have passed since the Cornwall family explosion. He waited for 2 months due to the synthesis skill to make stronger weapons
Looking at the Karambit's in his hand, he nodded his head in approval

2 daggers that sparked with lightning every now and then
He fused 2 low-grade lightning artefacts each , giving them powers of lightning and thunder
he came back to explore the Hephaestus shrine, which was apparently close to where he saw the Nos mantis for the first time
with speed due to his Dexterity stat, he quickly ran through forest, back when he hid through the bush
Sensing a prescene behind him, he clashed with a mantis claw that was behind him
Noz mantis - Level 20 (Mature)
Suddenly, he watched as hundreds of Noz mantis showed up on the tree branches, watching him
"Fuck..." Aryan sighed, was it over for him?
Suddenly, the Noz mantis that he was fighting with stopped and went to the others
An elderly Looking mantis walked out, making all the mantis bow with respect
Elderly didn't mean weak, since his blades were pure black and glowed with a shine that outclasses the younger generation
Looking at Aryan, the elderly bug walked up to him
Looking at him up and down, the elderly mantis beckoned him to follow under the watchful eyes of 100 powerful Noz Mantis
Trying to use Appraisal on it, Aryan felt a stinging pain in his eyes as blood came out
Appraisal blocked.
turning around and giving Aryan a death stare, the elder continued
They soon reached a black building, which looked nothing more than a black igloo
Walking in, there was a small hallway leading straight down
With a glance, the elder used his claws and pointed at the hallway
"You want me to go into there?" Aryan said, confused where this was
With a nod, The mantis gave a light push to Aryan, causing him to roll into the deep, dark abyss
finally stopping after a minute, he got up, only to get met with a system notification

Seeing an image pop up in his head looking at the Church of the god of Machinery and Steam, he looked towards it
"Looks cool," Aryan said
Something that wasn't cool is that his life was in the line. He didn't like how the system could control his life and death.
With a frown, he moved down the dank and dark Dungeon

Yeah well you can't be a pacifist in world of monsters and a system that can kill you at any time for any reason... Well not unless you are strong enough to afford the luxury of being a pacifist...
