The mont I stepped away from that place, the cold night air wrapped around like a silent companion. I had no attachnt to this world, no reason to stay. The human realm was suffocating.
With a flick of my wrist, I activated Void Step. Shadows coiled around , the air cracked, and in a blink—
I was gone.
The mont I reappeared, I stood before the Gates of the Demon Realm. The air here was thick, heavy with power, laced with the distant scent of blood and embers.
"System." My voice echoed through the vast, darkened landscape. "Show my stats and quests."
A familiar blue screen flickered before my eyes.

I smirked, my fingers flexing at the power coursing through my veins.
"Now this..." I muttered, my erald eyes gleaming in the darkness. "This is what I was made for."
I cracked my neck, my black coat shifting against my form as I stepped forward.
I exhaled slowly, feeling the raw power surging through my veins. The Demon Realm was different from the human world—it was alive. The ground pulsed beneath my feet, the skies were a never-ending abyss of darkness, and the air carried a weight that only the strong could withstand.
"Now then..." I muttered, my eyes scanning the vast wasteland ahead. "Ti to choose my next move."
The System screen hovered before , the three available quests glowing faintly. Each one led closer to the truth—to my purpose in this world.
I chuckled, running a hand through my hair, my black coat shifting around . No matter which path I chose, it all led to one outco—domination.
Then, I made my decision.
"System," I said, my voice laced with authority. "Activate Quest—"
Just then, the ground beneath shook violently. The very air trembled, and a deafening roar echoed through the skies.
Sothing had changed.
A new notification flashed before my eyes.

[ERGENCY QUEST UNLOCKED]
⚠ WARNING: ANOMALY DETECTED!
A portal has opened in the depths of the Demon Realm. Unknown forces are trying to break through. Investigate and eliminate the intruders before chaos spreads.
(Reward: 25 Strength, Unique Skill Unlock, ???)

I grinned.
"Looks like fate made my choice for ."
As I materialized near the portal's location, the entire landscape was in ruins. The once formidable Demon Fortress stood half-collapsed, its crimson towers shattered like fragile glass. The sky overhead churned with violent black and red energy, swirling like a vortex of madness.
In the center of it all—
A massive portal, pulsating with chaotic energy, was tearing through the very fabric of this realm.
"Tch." I clicked my tongue, surveying the destruction. "Looks like I arrived just in ti."
Then, from within the portal—they erged.
The first one to step through was a knight draped in cursed obsidian armor, his blade dripping with an unholy black mist. His crimson eyes locked onto .
Behind him, two towering beasts with molten veins and jagged horns clawed their way into the realm. Their very presence distorted the air, heat radiating off their hulking forms.
And at the back—
A hooded figure, floating effortlessly above the ground, holding a twisted staff adorned with a bleeding eye. The stench of necromancy clung to him like rot.
The knight lunged first. His sword screeched as it cut through the air, aiming straight for my throat.
CLANG!
I barely shifted my stance, blocking the attack with my forearm, my black bones absorbing the impact. The force behind it was strong—but not strong enough.
"Pathetic." I sneered.
Before he could react, I twisted my body, driving my knee into his ribcage. His armor shattered like brittle stone, and his body was sent flying, crashing into a ruined wall.
The second beast swung its massive claws at —
I caught its arm. With one clean motion, I tore it off.
The beast howled in agony, but I silenced it by driving its own severed limb through its skull.
"Stay dead."
The necromancer hissed, raising his staff. Dark tendrils erupted from the ground, attempting to ensnare .
I grinned.
"You call that magic?"
I activated Breath of Destruction.
A wave of crimson fire erupted from my mouth, engulfing the necromancer entirely. His body scread and twisted, lting into nothingness.
The knight was the last one standing, dragging himself out of the rubble, his helt cracked, his eyes wild with rage.
"Damn you... monster!" He spat blood, gripping his ruined blade.
I walked toward him slowly, unbothered.
"You're right." I said, my green eyes glowing ominously. "I am a monster."
He roared, charging at one last ti.
I sidestepped effortlessly and buried my fist through his chest.
His body convulsed. Blood leaked from his mouth as his heartbeat faded against my knuckles.
I leaned in, whispering.
"And monsters like ... don't lose."
With one final squeeze, I crushed his heart.
His body collapsed, lifeless.
As the portal behind fizzled out, collapsing into nothingness, the System Notification popped up.
[ERGENCY QUEST COMPLETED!]
25 Strength

---
I rolled my shoulders, feeling the power surging through my veins. My fists still tingled from the sheer force I had unleashed on those pathetic intruders.
Then, the System's notification flashed again.
[Skill Explanation: Oblivion Break]
Each successful destructive impact increases the skill's potency.
The final blow releases all stored destruction energy, capable of reducing even the strongest beings to dust.
The damage is permanent—what is destroyed by Oblivion Break cannot be restored.
---
I grinned, flexing my fingers as my aura pulsed violently.
"Now that's my kind of power."
The air around crackled, the residual energy of my new skill causing the very ground beneath my feet to decay.
I clenched my fist and slamd it into the ground.
BOOM!
A shockwave erupted, the entire area around collapsing into nothingness. The rock, the ruins, the very essence of the land— all of it was simply erased.
I smirked.
"Perfect."
