Big Change

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.
