A Demon's Ascent

Why me? What the hell did I ever do to deserve this pain? What the hell did I do to have my heart ripped from my chest, to be stomped on over and over again? Why does the filth of this world deserve to breathe the same air as me? I focused on myself, kept to myself, and always tried to succeed no matter the odds. I blew through school with the best grades. I killed myself every day to be someone who matters. What do I get for it? I die a horrible death only to watch my sister be tortured right before my eyes. I'd do anything to change that night. What do I matter? I never felt a day of light in this cruel world, but why did she have to experience that? The light of my world snuffed out in a second. I've been given the chance to change the past. Who cares how. I'd do anything to make things right. A deal with the devil was the easiest choice I ever made. I'll reincarnate however many times it takes as long as he holds up his end of the bargain. I'm going to lay waste to this world and unleash the hell's wrath upon all who get in my way. Not a soul will stop me. The sheep of the world just follow the status quo. Time for that to change. The end times are coming and it's me. My name is Conrad Stein and I'm gonna conquer this world. No matter the cost. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Please Join the Discord for novel related art and announcements!

Betrayal (Pt.6)

Jorgen is hidden in the shadows of the dark tunnel. A faint illumination appears on his face from the torch that Alaric holds. Siegfried has just arrived with Lucian, and Alaric has sealed the tunnel behind them. As Alaric leads Siegfried to the front of the group and guides the group through the tunnel. Jorgen stays towards the rear, not wishing for his presence to be exposed just yet. 

Karlisle's letter appears in Jorgen's mind.

'No Survivors.'

'How am I supposed to stop all of these people from escaping?' 

Jorgen takes a look at the tunnel while the gears of his intellect turn.

'Harald created this tunnel system after we returned from Cevan, 10 years ago. So Karlisle has no idea it exists. If I remember correctly, he made it using Earthen magic and did so alone. Only a few people know about its existence. It's decayed over the years. Last time I checked, it only has one route remaining.'
