258 – After the Blackness

My eyes saw darkness again, and my ears could hear the cries of many people. I gasped hard and opened my eyes wide.

The crying suddenly stopped. I changed my position to sit, examined my lower body covered with cloth, and found black holes in several parts.

I looked at my ladies, Ritor, Jude, Szur, Karl, and Charlia. Their expressions looked like a mix of confusion and shock.

Instead of talking to them, I chuckled. And before long, it became loud laughter.

Holy shit. I cheated death twice.

"H-how come?" Ayre staggered to me. "A few minutes ago, you were not breathing, my lord."

I jumped off the bed and tied the bottom of my body with the cloth. "That happened because I am Vorn, the demon lord who will rule this world."

While the others fell silent, I continued to laugh. This is great.

And I feel a tremendous power within me.
