Jack stumbled backward witnessing the beast let out a chaotic roar, and what worsened his case was when the beast stared at him with no eyes, just outer fangs.Thud.The three-headed black eater took a paw step, causing Jack to fall on his butt. Sweat was visible on his face and his eyes flickered with fear like a candle's light."I'm going to die," he muttered with fear kissing his voice.With every step, the humongous monster took, Jack's heartbeat skipped, and he glanced at the destroyed building Cy was knocked against. Oh yes, Cyrus was still lying lifeless on the broken buildings.As of now, Jack was covered by the shadow of the beast's paw. Just as it was about to smash Jack to mushrooms.Jack blocked his face with his hands due to instincts. The demon's paw landed inches beside him, and that's when it dawned on him.Cyrus had pushed the claws of the monster with his dagger. And when that dagger materialized within his hands, his crimson eyes staring at the beast, he muttered."
Inside Aisha's neat and arranged room, the TV could be heard informing those watching about the S-rank and the E-rank who entered a red gate and came out with the S-rank unscathed and the E-rank bloodied."Once again, Jack the reaper of the East has proven to us he's the strongest S-rank by clearing a red dungeon all by himself and with an E-rank skill user who goes by the name Cyrus," the reporter stated.Aisha, the girl sitting on top of her bed, scanned her eyes through the TV. Overall, Jack wasn't acting all famous like he used to. More like he was feeling guilty.'Is he alright?' thought Aisha, getting a glance at Cyrus before our protagonist turned the camera from his view.Aisha stared at her phone beside her, wanting to call Cyrus but then recalled she didn't have his number. All she could do now was hold her phone tight, feeling worried.'Maybe I should call Nerd.'She stood up from her bed and strolled towards her visible glass wall, staring at the dawn of the city. 'Why do
Unlike the times when Jack would be around the media, this wasn't one of them. He was alone in the park where Cyrus had told him to be, sitting on the wooden bench."Did he forget?" thought Jack while glancing at his wristwatch. "Or did Truth get to him already?... Damn, Jack, don't think like that.""Uh?"Jack abruptly glanced to his right, seeing a man adorned in black trousers and a black hooded sweater, obviously concealing his face.Cyrus stopped beside Jack and unhooded himself. He sighed and sat on the bench, then bam! Slapped Jack's head to the ground, causing Jack to fall on his face. "Who the hell is Truth?"The latter stood up, not that puzzled. "He called you?" Jack asked, getting a raised eyebrow from Cyrus. "Well, he's a guy I hired with his sister, and stuff happened-""Well, that's none of my business," Cyrus cut Jack short. "Just warn him not to mess with me," he smirked."Uh? He's an S-rank skill user, a real one, and muscular... He's one of the strongest S-rank skil
But Sylvia, she couldn't turn her gaze from Cy's eyes, both were locked together, Cy's own filled with no emotions and Sylvia's filled with fear."I advise you all leave," said Cy, calm, cold and emotionless.Considering Cy's words to be that of a comedian, the five angels excluding Sylvia all laughed at Cyrus.If our protagonist wanted, he would have just turned on his cloak while coming here and slaughtering them all without hesitation, but that would be too tiring, and he needs all the energy he can get to face Mongrel."Well, I'll advise you to f**k off before I gush out your internal organs without breaking a sweat," a random angel retorted.The man was about to meet his demise, but Sylvia stretched her hands out, stopping him. "Don't listen to him... We should leave.""What? After we've gotten this far? Who is he anyway, and why are you taking orders from him?" the man questioned.Cyrus got bored of this K-drama; he walked past Sylvia and headed towards the door. "If you want, t
(Few days passed)Surrounding a bonfire were demon men camping outside the demon castle. Amid these men were Cyrus and Alpha, who was gripping his arm tight due to the spooky story told by a middle-aged demon with a middle black horn."Some say the stone god can kill even the mightiest of demon kings... His formidable stone armies are too-"The man stopped, realizing almost everyone was laughing at him, everyone excluding Cyrus and Alpha. Well, Alpha couldn't laugh because she had fallen asleep on Cy's arm.The problem here was Alpha's palm had fallen to the wrong region of Cyrus; her hands were right on top of it, and Cyrus couldn't help but feel.Overall, they could be counted as ten, with some of them already sleeping in their tents."Really, man? Stone statues stronger than demon kings... I hardly bet the stone statues are stronger than the round tables... Haha.""Yes, what made you think Demon King Barnas allied himself with the stone God? Do you know the damage alone they can ca
{Next Day}Under the dull clouds, the group of demons ordered to find the hideout of the Stone Demon God could be seen walking along the ruined habitat and isolated destroyed building.The path they walked along was filled with black skulls that could be deciphered as dead beast, i.e The black eaters.Overall, to Cyrus, seeing almost everywhere in this world was either destroyed or almost destroyed. Cyrus could tell the blood war must have lasted longer than Necro had even told him.Cyrus, on the other hand, was made to carry the luggage like some luggage man. It was heavy but not for Cyrus, while Alpha won't stop hugging his black sleeve arm."You didn't sleep last night, did you?" asked the Necro Demon, keeping his voice down so the ones strolling in front wouldn't eavesdrop on them."I slept," Cyrus replied coldly."Yea right, my skeletons kept watch all night, and I was informed you didn't close your eyes for a split second."Cyrus smiled, gave the Necro Demon a glance. All he cou
Outside Nerd's Freelancer Association a black limo parked outside the tall skyscraper caught the eyes of many demons.It was just three months; that's the amount of time nerd needed to turn this world into a similar structure to that of his home.The limo's window scrolled down, and a muscular man grinning could be seen. Overall, as much as he was muscular, he was also big in the way that his red shirt was tight at the side of his muscles."So he's the one who hired Jack, hehe."The man got out of the limo and headed inside the building. Ignoring the guards, he shoved them aside and made his way inside the building, overall, he was causing one hell of trouble."Please sir you can't see Mr Nerd.""Fuck off my view."Just as he was rude, he was also throwing anyone who didn't listen aside. This act caused Nerd to walk out of his office."And you are?" Nerd asked, the first time he was ever upset that his aura was oppressing those near him.The muscular man downstairs stared at Nerd who
The stone lord was impressed, utterly speechless as he witnessed Cy's unyielding desire of not bowing even when faced with an arrow.Rock, on the other hand, stared at Cyrus, and as he was about to let go of the arrow, the stone lord stabbed his sword into the ground."Human! Step forward," he ordered.Cyrus saw nothing wrong with this, and it was only after he heard the stone lord call out that the system's order disappeared. After giving Rock a slight smirk, Cyrus walked towards the stone god."What master do you serve?" asked the stone lord.Our protagonist bent his neck to the side, wondering what he should say. What was he supposed to say? Jesus?"You must be a loyal servant to your master, just like my loyal one," overall, the tone of the stone lord was somewhat slow and precise.He glanced behind Cy, witnessing the ones bowing were still scared out of their lives. And Cyrus, on the other hand, kept on amazing him."Such a fearless one! I shall give you a chance to keep your lif
