"The Animal-Eyed Angel. The Primordial Angel of All Heavens. The Second of The Perfect Beings. The Second of The Primordial Creatures…. The Angel of Existence Itself… That is ."
Those eyes squinted in their sockets, each and every single one of them locked onto . My skin felt as if it was vibrating off my bones as I shivered with fear. My entire body had gone pale, and my face getting the worst of it.
My eyes shook in their sockets. My organs shook in my body cavity. My blood shook in my veins. My brain shook in my skull. My bones shook in my flesh. My flesh shook in my skin. My skin shook under the harsh gaze of these creepy animalistic eyes.
"So, do not be afraid. I am your creator. Your ruler. Your object of worship. Your existence worships just by living… so do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid."
"Huff… huff… AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
…
"AHHHHHHHH!"
I jumped back from the bed, losing connection with Orion's mind and landing flat on my ass. I rubbed the sore bruise that throbbed on my tailbone before turning around to check if anybody saw . It should have only been a few minutes due to the ti dilation, and, well, thankfully, everything was fine. Nobody was there, and nobody saw .
"Excuse … are you alright?"
Or so I thought.
"U-Uhhh… yeah… my bad… I looked like a crazy person, didn't I?" I groaned, slowly standing up and watching the vampire fully peek her head through the door. For so reason, she was still here when I thought she needed to continue growing her army or sothing.
"No, you're fine. I was just wondering what you were doing here?"
"I was trying to help my friend, but it seems his situation is a bit more complicated than I thought," I lied straight through my teeth. My eyes hardly even blinked, and my heartbeat almost began to slow in tandem with those slimy words.
"Do not be afraid."
A voice echoed in the back of my mind, causing searing pain to burst through my frontal lobe and then soon exit down my spine. I dropped to the ground, unable to even say anything, as my entire body froze up.
"Do not be afraid."
I pleaded in my mind for that single sentence to stop, but to no avail, it continued to torture . Endlessly. The vampire didn't even do anything as she just walked away. I needed help. But I couldn't even scream. It hurt. It really fucking hurt.
[You have been in the presence of a Primordial Being]
[No Ichor Detected]
[Soul Erosion has begun as a consequence…]
[Mind Erosion has-
[Body Erosion has-
[Body Erosion has been stopped]
[Mind Erosion has been stopped]
I was thankful for the panels as my body soon thawed out, allowing to move every inch of it once again. On the other hand, my mind was still recovering, not as much as my body, but it was slowly returning to its normal state. But, these weren't the ones that made the most nervous as the only thing that went through was this debuff called [Soul Erosion]. It was even on my status.
[Na: Luna (???)] - Status Condition: [Soul Erosion]
"Shit… shit… shit… shit… what does that even do? I can't feel anything, but I know it's bad… it's going to kill , most likely. Rebirth with that bastard won't even be possible… I can't even pull an Orion in this situation… shit-"
'Your soul is in tatters… what has happened?' A voice echoed in my mind, but its familiarity didn't send goosebumps to eradicate any positive feelings that had been built up. It was soft and young, possibly younger than .
"I did sothing I shouldn't have and got paid dearly for my mistake… I apologize, but can I ask for your assistance one ti?"
'Your status condition right now is called [Soul Erosion]. It's too severe for to treat from afar… you must co to . Co to my kingdom, and I'll treat that wound of yours… just make sure not to use any skills right now. Especially one from your rune path… got it?'
"What's the sudden turn in kindness?" I smirked, wiping the sweat from my brow while standing over Orion. "You were cold as hell before, but now you seem like a decent person… unless you want sothing from ?"
The voice didn't respond, and soon the connection snapped. The demon lord clearly had no intention of explaining any further in order to lure into his land of illusions… but my visit was long overdue. I was going to need to visit him soti anyway, and this was just the perfect chance.
"I'm sorry… but your little demon lord also sent us on a mission. We were forced to tell him where we were going, but we didn't tell him your plan. We said we were going to et up with you in order to perfect our skills in this capital of war and battle… *sigh*... I'm sorry, Orion. I hope you can forgive for what I'm about to do."
"And what is that?"
"I hope you know you weren't being sneaky… I didn't sense you at all, but I could imdiately assu you were spying on … Aisa." I turned around, seeing the beautiful, evolved woman whose horns had stretched past double my own horns' height.
"I wasn't inford of such a secret mission… did sothing happen while we were away?"
"You could say Orion's keeper was getting impatient and was getting angry that his pet had left. Even though he approved of the mission… kind of."
"Oh, so you're tasked with bringing him back, correct?" Aisa asked, but before I could respond, she quickly cut off. "But what ties do you have that allow him to threaten you like that? Are you dating sobody there?"
