My war chapter 4 volume 1 trials

Jake is entrenched in a strategic position with the army being surrounded from all sides this battle has been going on for three days and three nights straight . He hears the sounds of cannons and gunfire going off almost every second . When he hears a command and a commander yells out and says . Currently men the enemy is making a great push across no mans land to make it to our trenches . But worry not he continues are weapons shall shoot them down and our artillery shall blot out the sun not like there is much sun now . So get ready men to fire to fight for the emperor and his glory . Give them hell okay make them wish they were never born . We all have one chance to live and so make it that your life is satisfying to you and you have a purpose. A purpose in life men many of you won't make it out but with your sacrifices the empire shall reign forever . You may die and are not immortal but because the empire is immortal you are immortal . I hope you all make me proud I might not make it out of this battle but I wanna see this empire live thrive . Well anyways boys see you on the other side . The man then leaves . Jake is in the trench just waiting for the enemy when they hear another command . Which is to start preparing to fire Jake slightly gets up and sees an army of men slowly marching. Then one of the officers says get ready volley fire aim . Sonic booms can be heard and muzzle blasts can be seen as millions of weapons go off and land onto the unsuspecting victims . Quickly many of the men drop dead but soon more of them start running forward and yelling out . Out long live the empire or long live mother russia . But others dropped down onto the ground and used the dead bodies as cover . The men continued to fire and fire and fire . One straggler came in and from what Jake could see he looked hardly older then 15 or 18 which wasn't allowed in the army during this time . A man or woman should have been at least in there 20s or older to join into the military . That's how the empire made it cause they don't want children joining the military . Cause they aren't up to standard . Cause the empire had a long history of a dark side . There was specifically an entire collection of city's specially made in order to get rid of the poor the sick and elderly or those who were disabled . If they couldn't work or they couldn't support themselves or pay their taxes then they were thrown in there . If they were criminals they would be thrown into terrible situations and horrible prisons . Cause the government didn't pay much attention to those city's and if not all of their leaders were very corrupt . The living situations of the prisoners were almost as bad as the Russian gulags but they would never come close to the horrible conditions there . But still it was bad all types of new diseases had come most typically combinations of two or maybe even three deadly ones . So imagine cancer with sars or COVID 19 . The living conditions were horribly filthy and unclean even in hospitals which hardly existed there they were still unclean and just scams . How did Jake know all of this cause at some point he was living there scraping by in order to live stealing from others just for a piece of bread or any other horrible disgusting dishes were served there . It wasn't until he was recruited by the government for his special abilities was he able to get out of that hellhole . There were 9 circles of them each of them encircled the other . And there 9 of them you should already be able to guess there names the 9 circles of the imperial underground . Each of them was worse then the last and the middle of it was called the eye of Satan cause it was the cruelest and most hell like one of them all . Jake was lucky enough to be sent off to the ninth circle if he were sent to eye of Satan then he wouldn't of made it this far . In order to live in that one you had to be some real big big shot of you weren't important you got killed if you weren't strong or influential you go killed . If you weren't a big shot there you were dead . The people there from what he previously heard are some of the cruelest vicious people in the empire . Some famous names are The famous black phantom well black phantom was from there it was just that he was sent there for his crimes and was stayed there for a year . He stayed in the infamous abyss prison . When he finally got out of there he could hardly walk or speak he couldn't do anything and his mind was severely broken . The way he got out of there was from being a little rat and telling the imperial police bureau or ipb about the ones who helped him with his crimes . But in the abyss from what jakes heard there are no walls there is absolutely nothing keeping the prisoners from escaping besides buildings in order to hold their cells .They somehow made the place into an island floating on water in the middle of the 9th circle but they didn't need water to keep the prisoners in . They already had creatures which could keep them in the soul eaters . The soul eaters were creatures who were dressed in cloaks and floated they had dark cloaks and bony hands . But what gave them their names of eating souls is that depending if a prisoner has been able to escape once captured they will have there souls sucked out of them . Just like that they aren't dead there bodies can't control themselves and they are forever locked inside the horrible bodies of those things . It is called the kiss of eternal suffering cause even after the recipient has lost their soul the soul eaters will continue to torture them inside their own bodies . So it is a fate much more worse then death . But no one knows much of how they were created Jake only knows all of this through rumors and if they are true then those things are not to be messed with . Well anyways as we return to the battle Jake sees the youngling who charges at him and says for king and country and continues to charge at him with a bayonet . But as he runs towards Jake Jake sees him cry a few tears but Jake . Then says this really is a pain and says sadly to the kid let me rid you of your suffering now goodbye Jake flashes in front of the kid who looks with a surprised face but jakes bayonet has already gone through his heart . Jake fires one time on single shot and returns to automatic he then takes out his rifle quickly and soon soldiers all around see men fall this way . With no pain and with no suffering just softest way they could die als most like dying in their sleep. He really had become a reaper softly and quickly killing time like the hand of death itself . With no hesitation no remorse and no mercy for absolutely no one or anything . Cause nothing can escape the cold grasp and hand of death death is an inevitable thing which shall happen to us all . We can never escape death immortality was never and never shall be possible . But that doesn't mean we can't spend our lives happily and together . But nothing good lasts forever and just like everything you and I shall someday wither away and our ashes shall be carried away in the wind and our love ones shall grieve at the loss of our lives . But we shall protect them always in their hearts
