The reason why The ssiah was called, 'The ssiah' was because she was an agent of the Angels. She was their favorite hitman. If the angels wanted soone dead, they would employ The ssiah to do it. Of course, the common masses didn't know this fact. In their eyes, the ssiah was just a crazy villain. She didn't mind working for the angels and to her, the angels were just like everyone else on this hell known as, ' Earth'
I know that finding the portal instead of her, would change her future, but I prioritize my future over hers and I'd be doing Max a huge favor as well by saving him the trouble of killing her when she's strong and I'm pretty sure that her death won't cause that many repercussions, the only change that would occur would be that the angels would hire a new hitman for doing their dirty business. By taking what was supposed to be hers, I was saving thousands of lives, I'm a goddamn hero.
Heh.
Feeling good about myself, I enter the portal with a knife in my hand that I had stolen from the orphanage's kitchen. I knew that the mont that I entered the dungeon, a group of death wisps would pounce on and I won't even be able to see them as the entire dungeon would be dark.
Just like I predicted, as soon as I entered the portal darkness engulfed and I could see the outline of many insect-like things coming toward . I hold the knife tightly and close my eyes.
I can hear the sound of the death wisps coming towards and for the first ti in my life ( This life!), I feel the fear of death creep up on .
'' Kiek''
'''Kiek''
''Kiek''
The death wisps sounded ominous and I finally open my eyes to find thousands of them passing . They had divided into two lines when they reached , behind the portal had disappeared, unless we clear the objective given by the dungeon we can't return. Therefore none of the death wisps could get outside.
I sigh internally as I think, ' It worked huh?''
Suddenly the scene in front of changes into one that I'm very familiar with-
Wait.
Shit. Shit. Triple Shit.
The plan failed.

I curse myself for missing the mud-free part of my body.
I'm with my mother now.
My mother from my previous life.
We were at the city fair.
'' Wow, look at all these rides and stalls, John. Don't they all look wonderful ?''
'' They do, mommy.''
I feel my mouth move by itself,
My mother leads to the Ferris wheel and buys a ticket for a single child and gives it to before saying,
'' Why don't you go on that ride, John ?''
'' What about you, mommy ?''
Damn, my voice sounds cringy as hell.
'' I'll wait for you with ice cream.''
I nod my head excitedly and run towards the Ferris wheel, but before I could get near the Ferris wheel, my mother calls out to .
'' Johnny, I love you.''
Her eyes were tearing up as she said this to .
'' I love you too, mommy.''
Sigh, just abandon already, you stupid bitch.
I enter the Ferris wheel and look down to see ' mommy' running past the fucking ice cream cart. Seeing this, my body starts involuntarily tearing up and I call out to my mother,
'' Mommy don't leave ...''
' This isn't real, This isn't real, This isn't real.'
Suddenly, I feel a prickly feeling arise from my hand. It soon turned into agonizing pain.
~~~~
I was back in the darkness. I could feel the blood flowing down my hands, I had stabbed myself. But that wasn't important right now. I reach for my neck, where I could feel a stinging sensation and remove the death wisp with force and crush it but not before saying,
'' Fuck you.''
I had brought the knife as a precaution. There were two ways to defeat the death wisps. One was to cover yourself with mud and the second one was to hurt yourself. The pain would break you out of the illusion and you just had to crush the insect.
The entire area lights up and I ignore my pain and walk toward the altar in the middle of the dungeon, where I could see two things, a ring, and a small notebook.
I grab them both and at that exact mont, the portal reappears and I go back to where I had co from. Before exiting the dungeon, I feel sothing warm running down my face.
Was I crying?
Just forget it, I have more important stuff to do.
As soon as I co back outside the portal, my status screen appears before but instead of its usual blue color. This one was red.
