Reviewing his new stats, Reign got back some of his lost confidence before.
The system\'s act of displaying that list momentarily bruised his ego, but he quickly regained his composure.
After all, he was just a few months old in this world, whereas those powerhouses had likely been living here for centuries, or even millenniums .
As long as he did not do something stupid, he was sure to catched up to them within a couple of years.
Following a thorough inspection of his stats, he secured his mask back in place.
During the battle with the priestess, he had hastily removed it to safeguard it from any damage, even concealing it within his body for added protection.
\'It\'s time to meet those fanatics,\'Reign muttered as he stood up and walked out of the cabin.
The priestess\'s devotees were waiting for him, likely still under the impression that their cult leader was still with them.
Unaware that he had already sent her back to heaven, literally.
When the door swung open, everyone instinctively bowed their heads, too fearful to even glance up.
Because of this, they failed to notice that the figure standing before them was not their priestess at all.
\'What\'s up with them? They look old and weak,\' Reign pondered silently to himself as he observed the group, noting their white hair, wrinkled skin, and the musty odor of humans who was passed their expiration date.
Initially, he had assumed that their weak vitality after using the Undead Eye to see through walls was a consequence of the priestess\'s prayer, and he thought that it would gradually restore over time.
However, seeing them now, it was clear they had aged a lot, possibly by fifty years or more. It became obvious that there was no way for them to regain their youth back.
In the distance, he also spotted lifeless elderly individuals, some of whom appeared to have withered away, as if all the water had been drained from their bodies.
\'Is it just me, or are the angels more brutal than demons?\' he pondered inwardly.
At least in his case, he just killed humans without any pretense of justifying it through nonsense belief or propaganda.
Nope, he ended their lives because he wanted to.
That\'s it, no further explanation needed whatsoever.
The angels, on the other hand, farm humans for their fate, luring them with sweet words and making them believe they were their saviors.
But when pushed back, they would exploit those same humans, draining them to death.
"Priestess, the barrier is shrinking. Did we do something to offend you?" Vincent spoke up with a rough aged and weak voice while still bowing his head.
\'These guys are hopeless,\' Reign sighed.
Despite witnessing the fate of their fellow humans who were now dead, they stubbornly clung to their belief in that cult leader.
To end their suffering, he use his ability to dispatch them all in one stroke. -content
Each of them was struck in the head, their brains exploding instantly, granting them a quick and painless death.
"You can thank me in the afterlife," he chuckled, then started devouring everyone.
They were still EXP, after all.
He firmly believed in the saying, "never waste food," regardless of how old the meat may be.
Unfortunately, the humans here had lost most of their vitality, so he didn\'t have much EXP to gain.
It was different from the usual.
When he killed humans, their vitality didn\'t dissipate quickly; it remained in their bones, muscles, blood, and internal organs.
However, what the Priestess did to this people was suck them dry.
\'What should I do next?\' he pondered after cleaning up.,
In the end, he decided to return to the cabin and relax on the balcony .
He could see the barrier shrinking, so he planned to enjoy the view for a while.
"I think this place will last for two more days," he thought to himself.
It would be better if he figured out how to build a barrier like this. Even as a demon, he found the Black Miasma too overwhelming at times.
\'Oh, maybe they have something useful here,\' Reign mused as he stood up and began searching the place.
He soon stumbled on some consoles similar to the ones he remembered from his old world.
Moreover, there were movies, anime, and other entertainment materials.
It was fascinating to observe that forms of entertainment such as games, movies, and anime were universal across different worlds.
It was as if it were the natural order of things: when civilizations reached a certain point, humans would inevitably find or invent things to bring them joy.
However—
Reign was not really into games that much; he was more of a "watch cartoons and anime" kind of child.
It wasn\'t because his mother was tolerant and just let him watch TV all the time to avoid him running around the house like a spoiled brat.
No, that wasn\'t the case at all, or at least, that\'s what he wanted to believe.
Rather, he grew up in a world where technology was omnipresent, and most people spent 70-90% of their free time on gadgets.
As a result, he was introduced to this concept at a very early age.
\'How about a library? Is there one in this place?\' he pondered, deciding to search for something more worthwhile.
While he had enjoyed watching anime when he was still a child, he felt different now. It would be dumb if, after becoming a powerful monster, he still fixated on such superficial stuff.
Reign couldn\'t even imagine, not even in fiction, that a person who gained so much power would still be thinking about such trivial matters.
He began searching for books, but found none inside the cabin.
Determined, he decided to explore other areas.
Since this place used to be a resort, there were plenty of rooms to check out.
Finally, he stumbled on what seemed to be a storage area.
CREAK.
He pushed the door open and what greeted him was a lot of books .
\'Jackpot,\' He did not waste anytime and started organizing everything .
He would discard items unrelated to science and mathematics, prioritizing those books he found useful.
Unfortunately, he only found a total of five books worth reading. He grabbed them and retreated to the balcony, where he settled in to start reading.
Thanks to his high IQ, his reading speed was fast, allowing him to take in information at a quick rate, flipping through pages effortlessly.
\'Nice,\' Reign leaned on the chair as he found some interesting topic.
