SPECIAL CHAPTER 06

I got kicked out of the Heavenly Realm. I found myself swimming somewhere in the middle of a sea filled with lava instead of water. I stayed floating for a few hours, thinking of what to do next now that I've got kicked out of Heavenly Realm. I'm sure there was a way out from here, but then what was next? If I return to the physical realm, I would just wander around for many years until I rot away. I can't go back to Heavenly Realm because I made an enemy out of them. Now I am here in the Demon World instead with no clear goal in life.

My vengeance has been completed. I was satisfied already with the chaos and destruction I left in the Heavenly Realm. But now, what shall I do in my life? This is the price of vengeance. When hatred burns, it will keep you moving until you achieve your vengeance. But, by the time you achieve your mischievous goal, that hatred would go away, leaving you empty and with no sense of purpose.

Suddenly, I desire the old life I once had. The life that I had when I was a kid where I dreamed of becoming an Angelic Ruler. Where I know that every blood I shed has a purpose behind them. But now all I have done was for the sake of revenge… In exchange of what?

Loneliness filled me from the inside. Soon, my whole body went numb. As I was about to close my eyes to rest for eternity… To wander aimlessly in the sea of lava, I heard shouts from demons at the shore.

"There she is! The Ruler Of Darkness and the murderer of our children! Everyone, kill her so we can avenge our brethren!" They roared. I sighed. But even though I want to rest from all these burdens, fate does not want me to.

I released a wave of immense mana, pushing away those who tried to get near me while I slowly ascended from the lava. My eyes turned from bright green to crimson red, having similar eyes to those of the demons. If fate doesn't want me to rest, then I'll use it to keep fueling my life. I'll rule the whole world with darkness until everyone bows down to me.

So it began. Another bloodbath in the Demon World. I killed and killed and killed and killed until everywhere I go, I leave with mountains of corpses on my trail. As I kept fighting with no clear goal and purpose in life, I lost track of time. The whole Demon World feared my name. Just hearing the name Ruler Of Darkness made them tremble in fear. No matter what antics they tried to get rid of me for good, I would just kill them quickly before they could even make a move against me. I left the Heavenly Realm with destruction and chaos, and now I came here to this realm with destruction and chaos. Don't blame me. Blame the King who sent me here. Besides, I always hated demons. They are a sore in my eyes and to those who are innocent. Sinful races with only the desire to make the innocents fall. I will slaughter every single one of them until no more are left behind. And I will make this whole realm mine and make my own army to invade all the realms!

As I kept on fighting, spreading bloodbath anywhere, a hundred years have passed already. Almost the whole Demon Realm fell on my hands. I'd say 90%? While the 10% still fought against me. There were lots of royal demons who surrendered to me and gave their loyalty and lives to me, making myself an army of demons. But it wasn't enough. So I tasked them to breed their women so I could raise myself more soldiers to invade all realms. They obeyed and within 16 months, I had 3 million demon soldiers under me.

I kept on purging those who rebelled against me. However, I wasn't expecting the Demon Emperor himself would appear in front of me.

"Are you having fun, little snake?" He asked.

"If I kill you, the whole realm would be mine." I said.

The Demon Emperor laughed at my threat. "That is correct. That is if you can kill me." His voice changed from lively to serious as well as his face. Then we fought.

For 20 years, we fought nonstop. When our battle was about to come into conclusion, the high ranking demons under him, or known as the Generals, surrounded me. They used a Sealing Magic to seal my powers and to bind me physically. Then, the Demon Emperor summoned a gigantic black, rusty soul sword. A sword that corrupts one's soul, burning them until they become lifeless. As the soul destroying sword descended fast at me, before it could hit me, I separated my soul from my physical body. When the Generals and the Demon Emperor knew what I had done, they tried to use another Sealing Magic against me, but it cancelled the first one, giving me a chance to escape with my lifeless body.

I don't know how I did it… But I unconsciously opened a portal and escaped from the Demon World. However, I found myself floating in darkness. Inside the void. Because I was still in my spirit form and everything was dark, I couldn't move nor find a way out.

At that time, I became one with the void.

I lost track of time.

I don't know how many years, decades, or centuries have passed.

I don't know what my current state is either.

I lost track of everything.

I forgot who I was.

I forgot my past.

I forgot what I was doing.

For thousands of years… I was wandering like a true spirit.

A spirit that is one with the void.

This is my punishment.

For all the sins I have committed. This was my punishment.

To wander aimlessly in the dark, with no way out forever.

At that time, I lost the war against myself.
