I watched as both of the guards launched at the mont I had shown any intention to attack, but they were far too slow as the instant they had reached within a range of 15 ters, they felt an abnormal change that could not understand.
When they had taken a step forward, the abnormal sensation of having your foot sink into the very ground you lay your foundations on.
Slowly but surely, their movent speed slowed.
It felt like they were trying to move through a body of water, yet no matter how much closer they were, the distance always felt the sa, as if they were being thrown into a loop where the last step would only be longer than the next.
The look of horror on their faces when they saw my eyes glowing with a vibrant violet would have caused anyone to have nightmares for days, weeks, months if not years.
A shrill scream shot out of their mouths.
Their arms flailed in every direction, trying their hardest to get out of the situation they had been thrown into.
Questions like 'Why is this happening to ?', 'Why did I take this job?' and 'What is this monster we had provoked?' went through their minds.
"lt"
And with a single word, they both instantly turned into a mushy liquid created out of their bodies, clothes, and the materials that created their armors.
Simply stepping over the puddles I had created with a single word, I appeared in front of the shell-shocked lord with gleaming violet eyes. And as if he knew that this was his last mont in this world, he dropped to his knees, groveling at my feet and begging for forgiveness.
'How pathetic...'
"So, why did you choose to attack even though you knew I was an SSS rank? Are you just stupid, or was there sothing behind it?" I asked, making sure to look him directly in the eyes with my Eyes of Vanity active.
"N-NO! An SSS rank shouldn't be possible! The world wouldn't allow it! No one can get past the divine barrier!" The man yelled and flailed frantically, but his words were not what had intrigued , and instead, it was the loud and piercing ringing of the system that made look to my right, at the holographic screen that had just appeared right in front of .
Written in golden text only I could see, I read-
[Mission Recieved]
[Save the World!]
[Description: Eliminate the threat that threatens the existence of life on the planet]
[Difficulty: A]
[Reward:???]
'I see' I narrowed my eyes suspiciously and looked back at the man.
Before I could ask him a question, I like sothing was different about him... No, sothing was different about his soul fla.
'He's killing himself... Why?' I thought to myself but had already realized that he wouldn't be of help anymore.
The one thing I needed to note however was that there was a strange reddish-black energy that radiated off his soul with short bursts. They did not seem like they were his, but I could only assu that this was the case.
Since he was going to die anyway, I threw him to the side and began walking towards the n that I had arrived here with, simply looking at their pale faces and shocked expressions.
They finally seed to have snapped out of their shell-shock-like states when they saw that I was now right in front of , looking at them with cloudy eyes as if I was thinking of sothing else.
"Miss Pandora... Why did you kill the lord?" One asked.
"Eye for eyes, tooth for a tooth. The man probably deserved a more, how do I say this? Morbid? Yeah, he deserved much a more... morbid death. Doesn't sound right does it?" I stroked my chin with a light chuckle.
'That energy... It felt familiar didn't it'
[Hmm. Wait let check]
[...]
[...]
[...]
[Alright, I just searched your mories and I found sothing you might not like...]
'What is it?' I asked with anxiousness not aware of the horrified expression of those in front of nor being aware of my surroundings.
[It's demonic energy...]
The instant I had heard the answer, a vision of a large fist crushing flashed before my eyes.
Without the skip of a single beat, I had already looked back, my eyes now shining brighter than ever.
"STOP!" I roared
And as if I was its master, a fist had been forced to a stop right in front of my face.
Recalling what had happened, I rembered that when I had been talking to Hela, the thing behind had been simultaneously bulging and converging until it finally turned into a large pile of flash with 6 arms and a face one would only see in their nightmares.
"Twist"
*Crack* *Crack* *Crack*
The cracking and grinding of bones reverberated throughout the air.
The sounds
Its demonic glare piercing at with dozens of solid yellow eyes
The flesh-tearing scream that it released.
'So beautiful...' an unconscious smile rose from the corner of my lips.
*"The blood"*
*"Its shredded screams"*
*"Its lifeless, terror stricken eyes"*
*"I want to see more of it"*
*"We... Want to see more!"*
*"DEATH"*
*"BLOOD"*
*"SCREAMS"*
*"TERROR"*
*"HORROR"*
*"DESTRUCTION"*
*"Don't you just hate these humans?"*
*"These tiny, small, and pathetic humans... Don't you just want to devour their fears"*
'Stop...'
*"Destroy their families"*
*"Take their lives"*
*"Show them who is the most powerful..."*
My eyes began to glow even brighter
*"Imagine how good it will feel..."*
*"To be on top of the world"*
*"Imagine how easy your life would be..."*
*"As the queen of the world!"*
Runes had begun to engrave themselves around my eyes.
*"Isn't this the place to try it?"*
*"No consequences, right?"*
My vision was getting darker.
[Pandora?]
*Gasp*
'What the fuck was that.' I asked, looking down at my shaking hands.
"Fuck" I muttered under my breath before finally looking at the demonic human in front of and muttering a single word that would be his death sentence.
"Collapse"
*Boom*
With a powerful suction force, the lord's demonic vessel folded inwards before collapsing in on itself. Eventually, it had been turned into nothing but a speck of what it once was, a speck that eventually disappeared, just like everything else.
"W-What happened!? Why did you turn him into a monster!? Where did he go?! How did he just... disappear like that! That shouldn't be possible! No that doesn't make sense!" The leader of the group that I had co to the "City with shouted and scread frantically. He was on the verge of pulling his hair off it if wasn't for his group's intervention.
'He really almost went mad hahaha' I could not help but laugh, sothing Hela had imdiately noted down yet didn't imdiately address.
However, there was one thing she knew for certain, and that was the fact that the Chaos elent had to go... and soon.
[Ask them about demons]
Stifling my laughter and controlling my emotions, I had completely reverted back to not caring...
My movents were calm, casual, and nonchalant, while my eyes moved around the crowd casually, without a care in the world.
The change was almost too sudden... Eerily sudden in fact. It would have been terrifying to watch soone you had spent a significant amount of ti with just change their personality, with a snape of their fingers.
Yet, no one in the area had the luxury to care about my nonexistent facial expression, or at least that is how they perceived it due to my mask being on.
Yet, unbeknownst to everyone other than Hela, a wide, sinister and bloodthirsty smile had been hanging off my face for as long as she could recall...
It was as if it was always there, yet she knew for a fact it wasn't
[Sothing is wrong...]
'Nothing is wrong...' I replied back, now uncaring of how I looked.
Slowly, the mask began to fall off my face, and was imdiately thrown into the dinsional ring.
Everyone around looked at in shock, not because they could see my face, but instead, their eyes were peering at my ring, as if they had never seen anything like it before.
I knew for a fact that they had seen one before because they did not react to it being used when my mask ca out of it, but for so reason, they were reacting now?
The questions were too many, yet the ti was short, or that was what I thought anyway.
An overwhelming urge to finish this trial early overca . I didn't know why it was happening, but the whispers had grown louder, almost interfering with my own thoughts...
'Wh-'
Silence...
One would think that the mind could never beco silent unless one was asleep yet even then one could argue that it is never truly silent.
Yet, right now, in the middle of a world which I did not understand or know, it had beco silent...
I was tired?
Was I tired?
How could I have known if I was tired?
The only thing I wanted was to close my eyes, just for a single second... Maybe just a few seconds before opening them again.
That should have been fine, right?
I'm just closing my eyes, right?
You can imagine my shock when I opened my eyes once again... I was no, for so odd reason, in a landscape I could not understand... In the middle of nowhere, an area where life could not sprout...
An area without a single speck of greenery or blue light shining from the skies.
The mountains... No... Those weren't mountains... Those- Those were.
"Corpses" I muttered, in horror.
[Ding!]
