Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

After Reign devoured everything in sight, his level increased only by two, reaching level 32, despite feasting on a horde of Corrupteds.

'At this rate, I'll have to destroy entire towns just to level up in the future,' he thought to himself.

He was only level 30+, and yet the amount of prey he had to consume just kept increasing exponentially.

Each level required an ever-growing amount of experience points, and he realized that there would be a time that he would be force to destroy cities just to earn some worth while Experience Points.

Small-time genocides wouldn't be enough anymore.

And the ironic twist to all of this?

He couldn't shake the feeling that the system was nudging him down a particular path, almost as if it was encouraging him to devour more, or maybe all humans to keep getting stronger.

It was as if the system had a strange sense of humor, albeit a rather dark one.

'Well, I don't really care as long as I get stronger,' he thought to himself. He had never been one to be a hypocrite; after all, he was born to consume humans, so there was no need for him to change his ways.

It might sound rather dark, but he still viewed humans as both a source of sustenance and power. He

He could have chosen to farm Corrupteds, but for him, it was just too much of a hassle, and a dumb moved.

Why work 40 times harder when humans gave more EXP, tasted better, and made him feel ecstatic devouring their brains?

It felt pointless. It was like searching for fish in the water when there was a steak waiting on a table by the bay, complete with wine and side dishes.

'Yeah city life is still the best ,' hechuckled, imagining the amount of humans he could eat on a bigger city.

Little did the humans of this world know that Reign's peculiar mindset would spell a very big trouble for them .

He wasn't the typical hero sent to save humanity; he came to save the world, but the world need a different type of saving.

Unfortunately, it was not something that humans would like.

'Let's see...' His thoughts trailed off as he summoned his status window.

============

Looking at his stats, he was tempted to use Dark Dust to boost his attributes, but he shook his head after further contemplation.

It wasn't that important for now, and increasing it would not be much of a help.

He had plenty of ways to quickly boost his power using negative energy and lightning attributes.

Plus, he could utilize techniques to enhance his base power.

In the beginning, he considered getting the Bone Puppet Slots, but now that he was close to reaching 700K, he felt that five arcs couldn't do much against someone at the Demon Lord Level.

So, he decided to save everything for now because the store might offer more options as he leveled up further.

There was a saying from his old world: "A penny saved is a penny earned."

Of course, there was also the saying "Use your wealth to create more wealth."

'Speaking of which, can I summon her?'" he mused, a eureka moment dawning on him while thinking about the slots.

He quickly closed his eyes and found himself back in that mental manifestation of his power where those who he devoured stayed for a while.

This time, the whole place had become more stable, and the pile of bones disappeared, replaced by walking skeletons

Above him, a cloud intermittently sparked with red lightning, but there was no accompanying sound.

While the horizon remained dark and devoid of activity, the near surroundings had become noticeably busier compared to before.

The corrupted bones stood out with their moldy dark color, different from the human bones.

The darkness of their bones was different from his summoned one too. It looked more wet and oily, as if coated in oil all around.

In comparison, his normal summoned would look like human bones but without the hollow part. And even though they had some dark color, it wasn't their entire body; rather, the dark colors were just there, like an added design.

He also discovered that the whole area was divided: one side for humans bones and the other for the corrupted.

'Shit, these guys are still fighting even after dying,' Reign sighed to himself.

And then a scene almost made him curse aloud: five Corrupted bones started beating the living daylights out of one Human Bones.

"Hey, hey, don't do that! Why are you so aggressive?" He grumbled, voicing his disapproval.

But then he remembered that these were bones made from Corrupted, so expecting them to be disciplined was out of the question.

He also noticed the other human bones who were just observing their fellow bones being beaten up.

They sat there quietly, not engaging in any activity, and keeping to themselves.

It was a far cry from the other side, where the corrupted bones would from time to time punch each other out of boredom.

Seeing all of this, Reign started having doubts if he really wanted to go along with the monarch path.

Judging by how these bones were getting more and more intelligent as he grew stronger, there was a high chance that this place would be troublesome in the future.

'I will look for Arc first,' Reign refocused his attention, pushing aside the scene before him.

Among the walking skeletons, two figures stood out.

Arc was standing on a makeshift bone hut, patiently waiting to be summoned.

Then, there was a female skeleton bound by chains made of literal bones.

'How did he even build this thing? Don't tell me he used the bones of others?' Reign mused inwardly, noticing some femurs, skulls, and other long bones on the makeshift small hut.

Curiosity got the better of him so he decided to walk closer to Arc to check it out .

After getting closer, he saw ten human bones diligently building something for Arc.

They resembled employees vying to curry favor with the strongest individual in the vicinity.

In fact, none of the bones here showed any respect toward Reign, except for those he had given slot directly.

'You guys are living here rent-free and you can't even greet me,' Reign shook his head in disappointment.

When he reached Arc, the ten human bones scattered around, and Arc hurriedly knelled down and bowed his head.

[Ding!]

[System: Arc is now eligible for promotions.]

[Do you want to promote Arc?]

[Cost : 35 slot > 70 Slot ]

Without a second thought, Reign released 35 of his bone puppets to free up some space for Arc's promotion.

"Promote," he uttered, and the system began its duty.

Dark liquid started to be released below Arc, covering it in a cocoon.

This was the same thing that happened to Anna when she evolved further.

When the cocoon was finished forming, it resembled a dark heart, throbbing as if it were a living, breathing organ.

Reign decided to wait for it to finish; he could sense that this would be a quick ordeal.

After waiting for around a minute or so, the cocoon started throbbing rapidly.

When it reached its peak, it burst out, revealing a flashing red light that illuminated the entire place.

When everything calmed down, Arc was kneeling in front of Reign, his body having undergone another transformation.

His entire form had turned crystal red, with intricate dark lightning patterns coursing around him.

His face had become sharply defined, his hair now resembling red glass, shining with an ethereal glow.

Even his sword had undergone a transformation, appearing more imposing, with a condensed aura emanating from it.

The shadowy dark-red smoke filling its body had also become more condensed and thicker.

'All of his stats had increase and now his skill level are 10. This is a nice progress.' Reign nodded in satisfaction after seeing how much Arc had improved .

"You can stand up," he commanded.

"Yes, my king," Arc replied, his voice the same one he had when he was still alive.

"You can talk now?" Reign asked in surprised.
