Eldritch Creature's Guide

Samiel almost fainted from shock as he saw that he had gained two Innate Abilities.

Innate Abilities as a whole were scarce. Usually, they were tied to either Bloodline, Racial Attributes, or to some Classes. So basically, having an Ability was a win for you, and not many people had Abilities. Those who had one could be considered geniuses with a great future ahead of them.

Not every Class would result in obtaining some Ability; usually, Classes are just manifestations of a user's talent and increased proficiency in a specific field. This means that awakening the Class won't give someone any ability, skills, or anything. Still, instead, it would awaken one's talent for a particular profession.

Thus the Class Bearers were also known as Professionals.

[Your Patron God is intensely interested in your progress.]

[Outer God is now scrutinizing you.]

Samiel Zentaur wasn't even his birth name; his birth name was ordinary and unassuming, and he abandoned it when he committed the first sacrifice to his God in exchange for knowledge and power.

He then took up a name that sounded more intimidating and better than Patrick Smith. He always wanted to feel more extraordinary, and how could a person with his destiny be ordinary and seemingly unassuming?

He was never a believer and considered himself an atheist until he found a book in his endless pursuit of something extraordinary. This book contained a link to an Outer God.

From that moment, his entire life changed, and he became someone new, something new.

He created himself from scratch like a master sculptor would sculpt his own sculpture. Samiel Zentaur forged himself the way he envisioned himself.

From his name to his appearance, he changed everything through the continuous sacrifices to his God, as he strived to achieve the perfect vision of himself.

Outer Gods were mainly unknown, but they were terrific Eldritch Creatures that were feared even among the other Transcendental Factions.

Then he met his God, Outer God Azathoth.

[Outer God Azathoth wants to establish contact with you. Will you accept?]

He instantly accepted the contact with delight, as, during the time, he grew fond of his Patron Deity to a level to be considered a loyal fanatical believer. Rather ironic because he spent most of his life as an atheist, and now here he was.

Azathoth was a fair God; he didn't demand anything from Samiel, aside from souls he could devour to advance his strength and spread fear and madness.

Contrary to other Transcendents, who just required service and often didn't give their followers anything, Azathoth was much better, and Samiel always got his share. It was the relationship of equivalent exchange, where he provided sacrifices and got power in return.

When Samiel accepted the contact from his God.

Afterward, he found himself in a completely dark place, as suddenly thousands of eyes opened around him and watched him with great intensity.

If an ordinary person appeared here, he would go immediately mad from just standing in the presence of an Outer God. It was no joke, as everything connected to them could kill someone; for example, even hearing the Eldritch Speech could cause someone to go mad.

"You have done well, Blessed One; you served me well. And as a fair Outer God, I always fulfill my promises."

Samiel could hear it was like thousands of people talking simultaneously to him, the creepy, cold voice of nothingness. Even Samiel felt like his own very soul was freezing up slowly but steadily.

"You will become my Apostle and spread the madness and carnage in my name."

[Outer God Azathoth is offering you the position of his Apostle and drop of his blood. Will you accept?]

Samiel looked at the message from the Akashic Records several times before; this was just a fulfilling deal with Azathoth. He was, in truth, the first mortal the Outer God, taken interest since immemorial.

Outer Gods rarely took an interest in anything below Transcendent Level, as they kept to themselves and their nefarious plans. Most of the Outer Gods were typical observers and practically fence sitters that just schemed and waited for a perfect opportunity and subtly manipulated everything behind the shadows.

As the drop of blood entered his body, Samiel felt like his entire body was destroyed and remade from scratch as he screamed from the pain. Soon enough, the process ended, and he felt like he underwent another rebirth, as his entire appearance changed, and even his aura became colder, cold like the void in between the realities.

[Racial Change has been finished.]

[Old Deus - Human / Eldritch Creature. User is too weak to access any of the Eldritch Creature Racial Innate Abilities until the Legendary.]

It was understandable, as the Eldritch Creatures were Transcendent Species that were born at the Transcendent Level, and even their spawns were powerful legendary lifeforms.

[You have been appointed as Apostle of the Outer God, the Primordial Demiurge, Blind Idiot God, Daemon Sultan, Azathoth.]

[Because of your low Level, the Holy Class Apostle of the Outer God Azathoth has been sealed until the competition of the Quest.]

[You have been issued the Quest from your Patron God.]

[Quest: Harbinger of Doom

Description: After gathering enough strength, return to your birth world and unleash the Apocalypse on your homeworld, destroying and slaughtering everything in the name of Blind Idiot God.

Rewards: 10% of All Souls obtained]

Samiel looked at the Quest, not saying anything at all; just thinking about the reward made him ecstatic. While 10% of all Souls obtained seemed a little, currently, Earth has around 7 billion people.

He may return even 100 years later when the population will be tripled so that many souls is a vast number.

And part of those souls would belong to him; just thought about that made him shiver in excitement.

"I will carry out your order to the last point, my God."

Samiel said theatrically after giving a bow to either his God.

[Do you wish to enter the Tower?]

He then accepted the request.

[You have chosen to enter the Tower.]
