What is [Holy Warrio-
Before Tremis could even finish his thought a different kind of piercing pain went through his head unlike when the thirst was inside him.
He screamed out in agony and held his head slamming it against the dirt causing blood to trickle down his forehead. His fingernails starting to cut into his scalp.
If anyone else were to feel this kind of pain then they would immediately die due to the pain.
The feeling of pain on all his injuries had nearly been enhanced to the max until he finally passed out with his body occasionally spasming.
...
After an indefinite amount of time, his consciousness started to come back and his eyes slowly opened. Ignoring the messages that were sent on his retina he looked at the sky releasing that it was about mid-day from the height of the sun.
He then checked out the messages he obtained.
[Notification! Successfully absorbed [Holy Warrior] Bloodline]
[Bloodline has proven to be lethal to the Host]
[Changing bloodline to fit the Host...]
[New Bloodline Created! [Devorare Faegir], +15 Strength +15 Agility +15 Defense +15 Intelligence for reaching Stage 1 of Bloodline out of 5]
[Skill Gained! Reaching the first stage of Bloodline has given you the skill [Weapon Evolution]
[Devorare Faegir: The Bloodline of the Legendary God of Devour. This Bloodline has the ability to evolve after absorbing other bloodlines. The Bloodline can only absorb other bloodlines after reaching the maximum stage level]
[Weapon Evolution: Any weapon of your choice will become one with you, using this weapon will feel as if it is just an extra limb. The weapons that you choose to use this skill on will be able to devour various metal to upgrade letting it evolve. These weapons can become one with your body]
[Stage 1: [Weapon Evolution]
[Stage 2: ???]
[Stage 3: ???]
[Stage 4: ???]
[Stage 5: ???]
[Notification! {Devourer of Corpses} has reached LVL 4!]
['Communications Systems' Online]
What the fuck! I get all this shit? Just from absorbing a...bloodline? I should find some more often..wait how did this weakling have a bloodline?.

Suddenly, a cold male voice could be heard inside his brain after asking this question.
"Bloodlines are inherited throughout the family"
Who?
Tremis then began to look around before remembering the last message he had gotten, the communications systems were online.
Oh..I am so dumb..
Wait can I ask anything..alright let's see.
This bloodline seems OP..how come he didn't have bigger stats?
"The bloodline had laid dormant inside his body, devouring the corpse allowed the bloodline to transfer into your body and changing a few characteristics of the bloodline allowed you to activate so easily"
Okay..why did you have to change the bloodline?
"Except for allowing you to instantly activate it, it has to be changed to allow you to not die from having such a large amount of light within you. This bloodline appears to call upon the power of light from the God of Flame Laerata to strengthen the body and unlock potential when activated."
"You contain your own type of energy within your body and if that energy was to meet a different type of energy then it would try and fight against it. This battle would result in defeat against any God's energy so early on. If the energy is lost then your body will disintegrate and disappear forever."
I could’ve guessed I would lose..come on...Im not even close to a God's level at all..
Im having too much fun with this thing..how long was I asleep?
"Approximately, 72 hours 14 minutes 29 seconds.”
"The changing process of the bloodline took quite a while to fit the Host's needs"
Oh really? Thank you then, Mr. System
There was no reply.
After a moment of silence, Tremis sighed and sat up. He looked at his injuries and saw that they were still there and slowly healing although it didn't seem to be much. It seemed his regeneration naturally went up after his defense had.
Can you do anything about these wounds?
"Not without any muscle cells or tissue. If I have not been mistaken, the now human corpse formally known as 'Fae' would still be there."

Alright Mr.System I’ll look for the corpse.
Tremis sighed looked around seeing the longsword that was on the side of him still bloodied. He slowly grabbed it with his right hand and looked at it.
After inspecting the longsword he used his legs to slowly get up. Feeling a sense of overwhelming strength in his legs, he decided to try his new stats out.
Good thing that bastard didn't hit my legs..or I would be so fucked.
Tremis got ready in a springing position without actually touching the floor with his hands.
On your mark..get ready..set..go!
He started sprinting off noticeably faster than any human should be able to achieve. As soon as go was thought, he shot off and looked like a spear, leaving only an outline of his shape to anyone who would have seen him.
After a few minutes of practically going through trees, his eyes finally adapted to moving fast and it was slowly becoming clear to him. He then ran straight to where he remembered Fae's corpse was thrown.
...
After a few minutes he finally found the corpse although it seemed to have a finger missing from its left hand, it appeared to be bitten off.
Good thing it was only the blood the system took..no more restrictions on my body.
Tremis squatted down again and rested the longsword handle on his shoulder as his right hand touched Fae's extremely mangled and shriveled up corpse.
The normal process happened as Fae's body had now disappeared.
[Using corpse to heal Host's body...]
[Healing process is done]
The wounds that were previously on his body had now completely covered up instead, scars had taken their place. He willed the scars to turn back into his impeccable skin using his natural regeneration gained from his stats.
That's really handy..this world gets cooler and cooler by the minute..thinking about that.
Instead of thinking to ask the system, he instead talked out loud.
"System, why was I chosen out of everyone else to be this God of Devour?"
"I know there are Heroes summoned by the Gods but those are Heroes, why am I a God?"
"The Creator di- Error! The host is not qualified to have access to this information yet! 'Communication Systems' now temporarily offline! Requirement needed in Host's Intelligence Stat is needed to repair!"
What the fuck? All I did was ask that simple question..was I not supposed to ask that?..who is The Creator?
This shit is so confusing..ignorance is bliss..just forget about it all..forget forget forget forget...
He repeated it many times and eventually partially hypnotized himself making his mind focus on other things instead of that moment.
Oh yeah, let’s try {Weapon Evolution}..
Tremis then stood up and grabbed the longsword and put it in front of him. He silently whispered, "Devouring is thy master, let you his weapon follow the same fate but not as his weapon but as thy sibling."
In his subconscious, when he gained the skill it had mentally told him that to use it you need to say that phrase while focusing on the weapon that you are currently wielding.
Slowly, his arm started to slowly turn black making the longsword the same color. He felt as if he was the sword and the sword was him.
"United art thou and I, for brothers of Devour we shall be. Thou are no longer a man’s weapon nor God’s weapon but my sibling." He shouted as the longsword started to slowly go into his palm.
After the sword made it all the way inside his hand he began to speak again in a sincere tone.
"May we brothers of Devour see the destruction of the World together. The blazing glory of battle may we experience together. The love of war we will share together."

Valor and Violence
Valor and Violence is a series of short stories following different, yet all equally colourful, characters set in the same world. Birth of a Legend, the first short, follows Captain Erskine Erwell, a newly promoted Captain in the Calandorian Royal Navy, charged with protecting his people from all who would do them harm. Great news for the Calandorian citizens, bad news for the Skjar reavers that ravage the shores in search of slaves. But when a small reaver fleet slips the net and escapes to the southern jungles of Marduk, Erwell must fight a war on two fronts; one against the raiders, and a far more difficult war against the hostile landscape. If he can't find allies in this strange land, he may end up being the one in need of saving. The first part of the second short story will be uploaded on Saturday, the 11th of June, following Ferez Ahud, an aspiring young battlemage charged with the unsavoury job of 'terminating' a rogue member of his college. But how this nobody of a mage became a fugitive remains a mystery, and when the answer is discovered, the tables are turned and the hunter becomes the prey. I'll be uploading chapters of more in-universe short stories each week or as close to, work permitting. Content Guidelines: course language and violence

Aspect of the Beast
This story is being rewritten! The new version, A Price in Memory, can be found here. I highly suggest you read the new version as this one won't be completed. Also, there has been a lot of changes so you won't be able to continue with the other where this one left off. A soldier dies on a battlefield, his body broken but his mind at peace. He died for the only thing he truly cared about, his family. In a different world a talented mage completes his life’s work, an entire rebuilding of one of the greatest ancient spells, resurrection. Bypassing the stringent requirements, he attempts to make this great magic accessible to the masses, and by doing so earn his place in history. But lost to the passage of time is the reason for these requirements. Not to unnecessarily complicate this great magic, but to ensure the transfer of only mortal souls. For there are things that dwell in the realm of the dead that should never be allowed to cross over.
