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!

Retreat In Defeat. (Pt.4)

Lucian's boots trudge into the snow at high speed. Ahead of him are Frida, Lilith, Layla, and Siegfried carrying Talia. 

"Clip-clop! Clip-clop!"

Lucian turns his head as a horseman swiftly approaches Lucian's family. His sword is positioned high for a slash. Two more Cevan Soldiers are a few meters behind, their eyes fixed on Lucian.

'They'll kill my family if I don't stop them here.' 

"Sst!"

Lucian draws his blade while his feet skid to a stop as he turns to face the enemies. The system activates his Demonic Instinct.

Lightning crackles through Lucian's body.

'My mana isn't drained anymore. I can fight at full strength.'

Iris stops at his side, baring her fangs to their enemies.

"GO! PROTECT!" Lucian shouts at her, pointing to his family.

Iris gives him a look of dismay before bounding off after his family.

"Voom!"
