2230 Ashatath

"Kehehehe! KAHAHAHA!"

A giant spider-like Recessed laughed evilly as its countless, long, tentacle-like tendrils covered on red eyes started tearing apart the body of a still alive vampire man.

"Uaagghh! S-Stop, you monster! I SAY STOP!"

The Recessed laughed heartily as it saw the Vampire quickly recover the wounds with their amazing self-regeneration ability.

"As long as I don't destroy your head, you'll keep regenerating endlessly, right? RIGHT?! Then I can torture you as much as I want, keheheheh! Welcome to the House of Fun, my beautiful dark castle!"

The spider-like monstrosity grabbed the weakened, exhausted Vampire as he opened his eyes wide. When he was dragged here after the Recessed attacked a small village near the border that led to the Underdark, that he hadn't realized what his surroundings looked like.

But after he was allowed to look, he realized how fucked he was. Across every wall, there were the still alive bodies of hundreds of Vampires. Their bodies were being constantly shredded, cut down, torn apart, slashed, hacked, and dismembered.

What was doing all the job were countless little spiders, made of the same strange black and purple-like crystal that composed the Recessed, their bodies covered on red eyes. Their tiny jaws and legs constantly cutting off the flesh of the Vampires and feeding on their flesh and innards.

Naturally, they were kept barely alive, being feed the blood of those that didn't make it. The Vampires looked in utter agony, famished and barely alive, some screaming, having gone utterly mad long ago.

"Aahhh…! N-No…! Wait…!"

The man screamed in utter terror. He belonged to no faction; he was another Vampire amongst the billions there were in Abyss. Although the three largest families were full of power-hungry psychopaths, there were also many normal people, vampires that were simply trying to live and survive in this harsh world.

"D-Daddy…"

"Ah! M-Mia?!"

The man screamed in horror as he saw his daughter being hanged from the wall, her legs were being eaten slowly by the spiders, as tears flowed from her tired eyes, there was a poorly made straw stuck inside her mouth, feeding her black and rotten blood.

"Da… ddy… He… Help… me…"

"Mia…! MIAAAA!"

The man screamed trying to run and help his daughter, tears flowed from his crimson eyes as his aura of Blood Energy erupted from his body, however, holy chains wrapping his entire body activated, burning him and turning his white skin black, charring it and roasting him alive.

FLASH!

"UUAAAGGGHHH!"

The Recessed laughed, its countless red eyes looking at the agonizing vampires, hundreds after hundreds of them!

"Hahaha… KEHHEHEH! KAHAHAHAHA! YES! SUFFER! AGONIZE! SCREAM, CRY!" The Recessed laughed. "Learn the pain we had to go through, you! YOU DAMNED VAMPIRES! I WILL ENJOY IT, I WILL ENJOY DEFILING EVERY INCH OF YOUR ACCURSED BODIES!"

"W-What are you… talking about?!" The young Vampire father cried. "W-We've been living our entire lives in the countryside, just trying to survive in this hell of a world…! W-What fault do I have in anything?! Why is my daughter being tortured?! Y-You're a fucking monster!"

"YOU!" The Recessed roared. "You are the monsters here! Don't you remember? How you tortured and killed our kin?! How you enslaved our children and how your God killed our Father Sun?! You took away EVERYTHING from US!"

"I-I didn't do it… I didn't do any of that…!" The young Vampire cried tears of horror. "Y-You're talking about something that happened millions of years ago… I wasn't even alive back then! My daughter is only ten years old!"

"SO WHAT?!" The Recessed roared. "SO WHAT IF YOU DIDN'T PARTICIPATE?! YOU CARRY THEIR FILTHY BLOOD! YOU CARRY THEIR LEGACY; YOU MUST BE PUNISHED FOR THE SINS OF YOUR ANCESTORS!"

"Please… You can do… anything you want to me… But please let go of my daughter… S-She hasn't killed a single fly… She's such… a good-hearted girl…" The man continued screaming. "Please… Let her go! If you were once a Celestial, if you were once… a man with honor… Please! Let the innocent child go!"

The Recessed remained in silence, looking at the vampire with its countless eyes.

"…"

His long claws slowly moved towards the girl, as the vampire father, for a moment, thought he was going to free her.

Yet instead, his sharp claws pierced the girl's stomach.

"Gyyaaaaggh! It hurts! STOP! DADDY…! HEEELP!"

"A-Ahh… AHHH! S-STOP…! STOOOP!"

"Kehehehe…"

The Recessed only smiled wickedly, his claws tearing open the girl's stomach, and letting his countless spider children devour her insides.

"Guggh… Argghh…"

The girl was spasming in agony as tears of blood flowed from her red shot eyes.

The father screamed over and over again, cursing the Recessed, roaring furiously.

Yet nothing could change what was happening.

"Hahaha… KEHAHAHA!"

As the Recessed laughed, suddenly, he sensed something, a telepathic call from someone. He was receiving visits today and was just killing time until his old friend were to arrive.

"Hm? Oh? He's finally here~!"

He quickly left the room where he was, walking across his large dark palace, and looking at the gate, opening, as a giant made of golden bones and miasmic flesh appeared.

"Erdretoth! So you've come, my dear friend."

"I have, Ashatath, my old comrade."

Ashatath was his name, or their name. Although it used to be a male Recessed before, after his body awakened and mutated, he had become a hermaphroditic creature capable of giving birth to monsters.

"You don't have to call me comrade if you don't want to~" Ashatath giant mandibles clicked. "My dear Erdretoth, have you come to pleasure me today as well? Shall we unify our bodies? I have everything prepared in my room, my dear."

The gigantic spider embraced Erdretoth in a big hug, her mandibles opening up to reveal a long tongue, licking the entire face of Erdretoth.

03:38

"I want your bones inside of me~"

"But of course. I've also been eagerly waiting to breed you, my dear. We used to be friends before, but we've discovered a relationship even more beautiful now."

"Yes! It makes me so happy whenever you visit my lonely palace! Please, let us go~"

As Ashatath walked through the palace and entered her large room, filled with spiderwebs, Erdretoth followed her from behind.

And then both closed the door tightly shut.

The screams of Ashatath could be heard from inside.

But they were not of pleasure, but of agony.
