Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Patting the massive bodies of the ghouls in his front, marvelling at the cold energy that they were subconsciously releasing.

Leo lightly touches his chin, pondering as countless names begin to resurface within his mind. Thinking of good names to bestow on his pets.

"Hmm, Whitey would be a good choice but their pale rotting physique would make it unsuitable.'

Racking his brain for a while, feeling a slight headache coming up upon unable to select from the unendless name within his mind...

Leo couldn't help but release a heavy sigh of helplessness. Shaking his head slightly as he decided to pick a name that he could easily remember.

"All right, ghouls probably wouldn't care about the name I give them, so I could choose an easy yet unforgettable one.

"I should just temporarily name them Ghoul #1 to Ghoul #5... When their intermediate intelligence reaches level 5, where their thoughts already allow them to think for themselves at a deeper level. I would let them decide on their name.

"I'm really smart.'

Clap~ Clap~

Clapping his pale hands, feeling satisfied with his train of thought. Leo unhurriedly opened his character panel, scrolling down on the shop as he selected the permanently boosting attribute potions within.

Buying 25 bottles per attribute points (100 bottles in total), instantly reducing his horror points by a staggering 100,000!

Only leaving him with more than 300,000 horror points in his account in the process!

Huff~

Taking out the stack of potions within his inventory, Leo divided it into 5 parts.

(25 potions per part, each containing 5 different potions from different attributes.)

***

Soon.

Smiling with anticipation, Leo hurriedly commanded the 5 ghouls in the short distance to consume all the potions.

Making him grin as he beholds their overall attribute points increase by 25! Making their combat ability not weaker than a normal Late Stage of the mortal realm!

"Investing in my dogs wouldn't be that bad... With their attribute points that were far above their peers, their future prospects were bound to be great!'

Sigh~

"However, spending a hundred thousand horror points in one go... was actually much worse than fighting a Devil at the Late Stage of the core formation realm.

"It both hurts.'

***

Growll~

Soon, upon commanding the ghouls to hunt smaller prey outside the bland cemetery and the periphery of the endless forest in able to increase their level...

Leo began to advance toward his farm in the far distance, humming a cold lullaby as he leisurely took out the 2 corpses of the core formation realm Quasi devil within his inventory- intending to use them to create new scarecrows, using them to protect the new farm he was planning to build.

Keke!

Seeing the familiar figure of Leo approaching from afar. The lonely figure of the scarecrow, being shrouded by vibrant plants that highly contrast with its bland surroundings, couldn't help but release a high-pitched sound of excitement, making the corner of Leo's eyes twitch. Feeling pain within his head as he fights back the urge to cover his ears.

"Ok, that's enough... I know that you were too excited upon seeing your handsome master. But please, refrain from shouting like a girl who met her best friend in the park after an hour of separation."

Shaking his head, removing the lingering voice within his head, Leo unhurriedly took out a potion within his inventory, shaking it slightly before tossing it toward the grinning scarecrow in front.

Keke? (A potion?)

"Yes, it's a potion that momentarily elevates the speed of cultivation upon consumption... Cultivate first, I still need to create new puppets."

Smiling slightly, sensing that the spiritual plants and herbs were growing healthier under the care of the scarecrow. Probably would mature in just a matter of days or a week which was beyond his imagination.

Leo nodded his head in satisfaction, feeling that it was really a wise choice to create the scarecrow back then.

Hmm...

"However, the speed of their maturing is really beyond my imagination, to the point that I feared that something was going on beyond my back.'

"System.'

Feeling uncomfortable upon being unable to understand what was happening with his plants, wanting to ensure that his plants wouldn't suffer from sudden withering or unnatural causes. Leo couldn't but ask the system.

Ding!

-1,000 points!

Ding!

[ The reason for their sudden growth is related to the Bland Cemetery Scenario... Not only did the capability of the cemetery increase drastically upon being upgraded by a star.

But the quality of the things inside its area of effect also improved by an amount. Including the concrete niches, soil, grasses, etc... ]

...

Reading the information on his front, Leo couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, feeling that the new feature of the system was much more magical than he expected. Wondering if it was the new upgrade of the system when he advanced toward the core formation realm.

"Wait... I seem to have forgotten something.'

As he was pondering within his mind about the new changes within the system, Leo suddenly paused on his track, eyes widening as his nose abruptly spewed smoke- enranged upon understanding why he suddenly felt that something was amiss...

"F*CKING SYSTEM! You deduct 1,000 horror points even though I didn't accept the deal!

"Is this your f*cking upgrade upon I reach the core formation realm!? Don't tell me you were deducting horror points from my account without telling me!?'

Finally understanding why his horror points were losing tens of numbers every hour without him spending a single thing. Leo couldn't help but loudly curse.

(He just noticed it now when he wasn't occupied by anything. Allowing his mind to wonder...)

Ding!

[ System Tip... ]

Seeing the reply of the system, Leo's pale eyes couldn't help but momentarily blacken... Making the atmosphere around unconsciously shift as the pitiful scarecrow nearby shivers in coldness and fright.

As he was entertaining the thought of summoning the system into reality or allowing it to occupy the body of the corpses within his hands so he could peacefully talk to it, a new notification appeared within his senses, further deepening the killing intent within his being...

To the point that he almost comprehends the vastness of the rule of killing intent.

Ding!

[ I'm getting tips per hour so I could donate it in order to save the poor and orphans. ]

"Son of a... Who would believe you? A system that gives skills that focus on...

"Wait, that makes sense. No wonder you only give me support skills...'

***

"F*CK! I almost believe you! All of the support skills you gave me carried madness within them!

"Furthermore, just the Domain of Despair alone tells me about your black-hearted character!'

Ding!

-25 horror points for unconsciously tipping the system.

...

Soon, after a quarter of an hour quarrelling with the system, Leo heaved a deep sigh of helplessness. Unable to stop the system from tipping itself for every hour.

Fortunately, it only deducts 25 horror points from his account per hour, or else...

Sigh~

"I just hope that the day would come when I could bombard the system with my unending skills...

Unending support skills.'

Shaking his head, burying the destructive thoughts behind the back of his mind. Leo hurriedly manipulated the corpses of the Quasi devil on the ground with his telekinetic ability. Moving toward the corner of his farm before finally focusing on creating puppets.

Returning the silence within the environment as the shivering figure of the scarecrow finally calms down.

...

Ding!

...

Soon, after an unknown period of time creating puppets.

Leo slowly nodded his head as he stared at the two scarecrows in his front, staring at their slightly crimson physique and long limbs in satisfaction.

Unlike the first scarecrow that he created, the two in his front had an additional pair of arms growing on their back. Allowing them to move using their extra arms around, albeit slowly.

Removing the restriction on their movement for better guarding the farms.

"Huff~ Finally, I'm done!'

Slightly sighing in exhaustion, feeling mentally exhausted upon tinkering with their core in able to pull out their potential.

Leo sat down on the ground, staring at the sun above in complete silence before beginning to absorb the Qi around his surroundings- wanting to recover his lost Qi before starting shopping within his system.
