"She is our Beginning, and She is our End. Our life came from Her, and we shall claim life for Her. She is the sole heir to this world, and we shall give it to Her. Everything is for the Queen Mother… All hail Queen Mother!"
The shadowy figure, partially hidden amongst the trees, muttered these words like a prayer as its eyes scanned a clearing in front of it.
Although the shadowy figure was tired of saying these words already, it knew that these words were something essential that it must say.
After all, what it was about to do right now was an important mission that every children of the Queen Mother must do.
In front of the shadowy figure was an assortment of tents, all set and constructed inside the clearing.
The shadowy figure has to rely on its senses to see, as it was currently nighttime. This condition did not disadvantage the shadowy figure at all, as it was during nighttime that it becomes the most dangerous.
With its enhanced senses, the shadowy figure was able to identify presence of humans inside the tents.
30 Adult Males, 15 Adult Females, 10 Elderly and 40 Children.
The shadowy figure resisted the urge to just rush in and kill all of these people in an instant, as it was not allowed to do so for now. It was very tempting though, as the shadowy figure found it hard to forget the feeling of a person being dissected by its sharp shadow blades.
Right now, the shadowy figure will not kill. Killing is only reserved for the blasphemers who dare to fight back against the Queen Mother.
Tonight, the shadowy figure will welcome its new siblings.
"Slosh." The shadowy figure gingerly held a glass vial in its distorted hands, as it took care to not let it fall to the ground.
This vial was incredibly precious, so precious that the shadowy figure heard some rumors from its siblings that it cost the life of a Great Elderitch to create the contents of the vial.
That was enough to make the shadowy figure vigilant, as anything that requires the life of a Great Elderitch were surely valuable.
With its talent for stealth, the shadowy figure was able to slowly approach the clearing without alerting any of the guards, who looked extremely sleepy to even guard at all.
The shadowy figure then paused in its tracks as it psyched itself up for its next actions
.
The shadowy figure knew that once it makes its actions, all hell will break loose. Many unexpected things might happen, and the shadowy figure knew that it must be prepared to take these things on.
The shadowy figure swore to itself that it will do its best to stop any human that will interfere with the birth of its new siblings.
And even if the shadowy figure has to sacrifice its own life to stop these pesky humans, then it will gladly do so.
After all, the life of the shadowy figure is insignificant compared to its possible new siblings, who might be of better use for the Queen Mother.
"Mama, I want some cookies!" Even if it was already night, the shadowy figure could still hear a rowdy child raising her voice towards her mother.
The shadowy figure scoffed after hearing this as its view of the humans just went lower.
Unlike the pesky, irritating human children who do not respect their parents, all the children of the Queen Mother adore her. There are no way that they will rebel towards Queen Mother as She is their reason to live.
Even the shadow figure, already in its adult stage, was still loyal to the Queen Mother.
"Woosh~" The shadowy figure, after a second of waiting, decided to not prolong its wait any longer.
Its body transformed into shadows, which trailed across the ground.
This form gave the shadowy figure its maximum speed, as it allowed the shadowy figure to reach the middle of the clearing in an instant.
Before any of the sleep-deprived guards could react, the shadowy figure had already shattered the vial that it held in its hands.
"Crash!"
A noxious-looking gas came out of the shattered vial, which started to spread throughout the whole clearing. Every human in the clearing were all covered by this gas.
By the time that the whole clearing was full of the gas, the shadowy figure was already outside the clearing, waiting for any possible intruders.
To the shadowy figure's relief, nobody approached the clearing even after it waited for 10 minutes.
It seems like the shadowy figure's decision to choose a secluded nomadic village in the mountains as the breeding ground was right.
Now that 10 minutes have already passed by, the shadowy figure reckoned that its already time for the birth of its new siblings.
"....…."
"Argh!!!!"
The screams of pain that the shadowy figure heard from the village heralded the start of the birthing process.
It was a well-known fact among its siblings that the Queen Mother has no way to naturally produce Her own children.
All of Queen Mother's current children were all born artificially.
"....."
The shadowy figure resisted the urge to enter the clearing as it knew that the effects of the vial were not yet done.
From what the shadowy figure knew, the gas inside the vial has a low chance to turn any human into Queen Mother's new children.
In human terms, the gas in the vial has a low chance to turn humans into 'MONSTERS'.
The shadowy figure hated this term, as in its opinion, humans were worse monsters than itself and its siblings.
Humans were all greedy and selfish, while all the children of the Queen Mother were all cooperative and sharing.
Just one look at that was enough to show the superior group.
The screams of pain continued to last for another half an hour before it died out.
Once the shadowy figure confirmed that there are no more traces of gas left, it entered the clearing to look for its new siblings.
To the irritation of the shadowy figure, only five humans survived the transformation.
Because of the potency of the gas, most humans die before they could even transform. Only a select few gets to survive to witness their new form.
The shadowy figure finds this to be quite a pity, as it knew that it will be better if all the humans will be the children of Queen Mother.
"Waaa!!!!"
The shadowy figure's reverie was broken as it heard a cry echoing throughout the whole clearing.
The shadowy figure vaguely recognized that the one crying was one of its newest siblings, who turns out to be the irritating human child that asked for some cookies earlier.
As for the remaining 4 humans, the shadowy figure realized that they were all human kids too.
"Useless." The shadowy figure muttered to itself as it decided to just leave the transformed human kids in the clearing.
In the shadowy figure's opinion, transformed human kids were all weak and useless, and they do not deserve to get treated as children of the Queen Mother.
If it was adults or even elderly that transformed, then it will be fine.
But children? There is no way the shadowy figure will bring their kind with it.
Not bringing the transformed human kids might be a waste considering the value of the gas vial, but the shadowy figure knew that this is better compared to actually allowing some weaklings to be Queen Mother's newest children.
"Waaa!!!"
The shadowy figure ignored the cries of its newest siblings as it left the clearing, melding back into the darkness of the night.
The shadowy figure never once looked back.
