Backstory, Using Magic

A little backstory~~~~

------

I used to have friends, but only four. We were best friends and spent almost every day together because we were so happy at the time. I still had my impatient tendencies, but they weren't as intense as they are now. At the very least, I could wait.

But everything changed when my friends stopped responding. Or, more accurately, they were attempting to avoid me by responding late. They were always making excuses for everything, which I simply ignored because they were my best friends. How could I be mean to my best friends, who mean the world to me?

How naive I was back then.

They went to a party of one of their new friends later that day without inviting me. I would never have known if they hadn't posted it on their social media. I wasn't angry or sad because there were always times when some of us came with the group and others didn't. It was nothing out of the ordinary for us. At least for me, because I was always the one who got left behind.

So I messaged them and asked why they didn't invite me when they were partying so hard. I really wanted to go, but I couldn't unless I was invited. It was a birthday celebration for a guy called Nick. A rich boy who was spoiled rotten. He was well-liked because he had a good appearance. I despised him, but I tried to be friendly, which didn't seem to work because he was constantly provoking me with nonsense like, "They replaced you with me, haha!" "Do you really believe they regard you as a friend? Pfffttt.. HAHAHA!"

To be honest, I should have killed him. He got on my nerves so badly that I couldn't think straight at the time. I reacted to his provocation because he provoked me. I thrashed him until his face was covered in bruises and he had a few broken bones. (I learned hand-to-hand combat from my father because he said I'd need it later in life. I'm not very good at it; I only know the fundamentals.)

I also threatened him with silence and told him to leave my friends alone. That worked because he never returned and actually left town. Despite having a wealthy father who could easily wipe me off the face of the Earth with their bodyguards, Nick was a coward and a huge crybaby.

Life continued the same. Ignored, asking why, ignored or late replies, afterward excuses, and as of last saying sorry. That's basically how they played this little game of theirs.

This went on for about a year as I was still trying to hold all this anger in when I exploded on the night when one of my friend's birthdays came.

I didn't get invited. I asked why with caps saying how I am angry why didn't invite me when I was their friend and I had the right to go there.

Luckily I got a reply back almost instantly. It said, "Sorry but we don't invite strangers to parties".

"....." I just blanked out thinking this wasn't possible. After I realized it might be true, I began to call their phones like crazy.

None picked up while they were partying like crazy and enjoying it to the fullest.

I spammed their socials for hours and didn't sleep that night. I went on for 10 hours straight saying in caps "I AM YOUR FRIEND?!".

After the whole party, they all simultaneously replied with, "Fuck you!" and an emoji with a middle finger.

I dropped my phone believing it was fake and thinking they might be drunk but it seemed like they were completely fine regarding their pictures from today.

They were out eating with all three of them. Were smiling while eating delicious food.

After realizing that they really didn't give a fuck about me I began to stop worrying about them and just started to prepare my revenge. I had to prepare my revenge for a few months because this couldn't be done instantly.

I began stalking all of them and threatening all their families with pictures of them on the street, in stores, at home and just everywhere they go. I also got to bed with their sisters and even tried with their moms. I didn't threaten the sister, more like I made them fall for me. I don't know how I did it but I was quite the quiet kid in my childhood and didn't know how to pull a girl. But back then I snapped and just flirted like a playboy as it was my nature to lure women towards me with flirty words.

After all that I then started threatening them, my ex-friends. I stalked them every day as if I had to get my revenge on them. I already fucked their whole family up and even literally fucked their family yet it wasn't enough.

I want to sever their friendship.

From within, ruin their entire family.

Terrorize them for all eternity.

I wanted to make things difficult for them.

I wanted to test their reactions to my threats.

I suddenly developed a sadistic streak because I enjoyed playing with their lives and how easily I could control them. They were like my dolls, and I had complete control over how I played with them.

I needed more. This wasn't enough. They literally betrayed me. What I did was something they of course had to pay for. Friendship isn't something you should take lightly you know? I considered you all as my family and did things with you guys that made my life even better. But I guess that isn't the same for you guys. You had to take it lightly and began playing with my feelings.

I'll give you guys a good nightmare before I run out of boredom. I expect you guys to give up and just despair and leave this place since I know how cowardly you fuckers are.

Suddenly I felt I had an adrenaline rush thinking how frightened they were and how they couldn't go outside with safety which made me really excited.

By the way, there were two boys and one girl in the group, so I fucked the girl with a phony profile. My face had obviously changed, and she had no idea who I was because it had been a few years since they had betrayed me. A glow-up, you could say, that they never expected to happen. Not that I was particularly attractive; I was just your average guy who always wore a working suit that, for some reason, fit exceptionally well on me.

The boys had no idea until their mothers were hospitalized as a result of the stalker's threatening behavior. They were stunned and determined to track down this stalker.

'Laughable!' I thought after seeing their pitiful expressions.

Oh, I was present when the little boys came to see their terrified mother. They must be mommy's boys, judging by how fast they ran to see their beloved mother.

----------------------------------------------------------------

I hope this backstory gives you a better understanding of the MC's personality. He returned to normalcy and stopped being sadistic after all of this. However, his sadistic tendencies came into play at times in his life, and they will return later on. As you may have guessed, he has some screw losses in his head when life fucks him over. Well, I hope you enjoy this; if not, I guess you should stop reading because you will encounter his sadistic, psychopathic, and insane personality on numerous occasions. If you're confused about his personality, here's a little spoiler: he has a sadistic way of defeating enemies and a psychopathic mind. He only goes insane when he has lost hope or has been betrayed, as in the backstory.

Happy readings! ;D

----------------------------------------------------------------

Now that I think about it I forgot about that one memory I just remembered.

The betrayal of my friends.

Well, I didn't know what was happening to me at that time since it looked like I was being possessed by something because that was definitely not me. I am quite the opposite, right?

I've actually forgotten lots of things since my childhood when I was still on Earth. But now that I am in this void with nothing but darkness surrounding me, I can easily recall every memory from the day I was born until I died. I don't know how this all works but I will eventually figure it out, I hope.

...

Let's first focus on breaking through so I can use magic.

I calmed my mind and began guiding my mana through my meridians towards my head.

I continued until it was full and also filled my abdomen while I was at it.

Now the difficult part is that I can't get past the knees, which means I have to do it right now.

When my abdomen was completely filled I quickly went towards my legs.

A little bit more until the knees succeeded but I couldn't get past the knees. It was rather slow. But I don't know if I can hold on because this is exhausting me on another level.

I just tried and tried until I was physically and mentally drained.

After so many times of trying I finally succeeded in leading my mana past my knees.

I quickly led it towards my foot and it also immediately worked for some reason.

Maybe the hardest part was the knee. But how was I able to get past my feet so easily while it wouldn't go past my knees? A bit strange to be honest.

Well now that I have succeeded in filling my whole meridian with mana and letting it circulate within me with control which will, later on, do it itself.

I could finally use magic!

I don't expect it to be really powerful or anything but I want to at least have something that could protect me. Who knows what inside this infinite void roams, besides that mysterious man there could be anything coming towards me with hostile intentions. Even though I haven't encountered one, let's just be careful.

To use magic, you have to use your mana from within to let it flow to a certain part of your body. Most people use their arms for example and shoot out magic from there. The more mana you use the more power the magic will have.

I wanted to know what my full strength was with magic. So I just put every bit of my mana in this shot and began focusing to lead my mana outside my body.

I then opened my eyes to look at my hand where something was floating on my palm. I looked closely and it was an icicle.

It was extremely sharp and it looked really powerful despite being so small. Afterward, I tried to look where I should shoot it at.

Oh!

These objects should do the job.

I pointed my palm to an object and ordered this icicle to fly towards it.

WHOOSH

When I wished it would go towards the object and pierce it, it went flying at an immense high speed and immediately pierced through it as if it couldn't be stopped by anything else and made a big hole into the object.

'Woah! That's so cool!'

This was my first time using magic so I was quite happy. I then clenched my fist together as I finally got to the point I could use magic. I wanted to jump in joy and just yell that I finally did it but then I realized I could draw attention from anything. And also that would be extremely embarrassing.

I relieved my hand and began to do the same thing as the first time I used magic.

I stretched my arm forward and imagined an icicle floating on my hand. I also felt that the power I used earlier felt lacking even though I tried to use every last bit of mana in it. So I tried to put more power into it hoping that it would be powerful.

I once again ordered it to fly towards an object and fired it.

WHOOSH

It for some reason went even faster and pierced through it with a much bigger hole.

'Does this mean that I can put more power into it even if though that was my full power?'

'Does this mean that I am not limited to my own power but can draw more out if I try harder or something?' Hmm, I have to figure this out later on because this is a bit weird. It's a good thing though so I am glad I can use more power and not be limited to my own.

I started to use mana more and more and began to get good control over it. I thought I wouldn't be good at it in the first few tries but I could hit the object after reaching the Newborn state. It was weird but I didn't think much of it.

Suddenly a weird thought popped into my head as it was getting boring using only one hand and tried to use magic with both hands.

Unexpectedly it worked. I now had two icicles floating onto my hand that looked like they could pierce through anything.

I aimed at an object and ordered it again to pierce through.

WHOOSH

WHOOSH

Two sharp-like things flew towards the object with high speed and literally made the object explode once both tried to pierce through.

'That was easy. I wonder if I can use more than two icicles at the same on only two hands.'

My excitement began to take over as I was getting various weird ideas in my head thinking I should definitely try them all out to see what I could do with it.
