Chapter 10 - Chapter 9// Cain

This isn't pretty...

I've lost all sense of pain after Sin brutally pierced my f*cking heart. My mind slowly cutting off from reality.

On the ground, bleeding out, no strength left in me- weak till the f*cking end.

I can barely keep my eyes open, hearing everything the maniacal mastermind spouts. A dark figure approaches me, The ground shakes with each step it takes towards me... the behemoth.

F*ck.

The beast, wide in stature- its huge frame towering over me, its wings folded down and four arms supporting itself. Blood red eyes staring down at me.

Any last traces of the King soon gone as the beast opened its stinking mouth and started lapping up my blood oozing from my chest.

Biding its time with me.

Drained, I started convulsing- my mana heart is collapsing on itself. The rings in my heart fluctuating on its own. , years spent in surviving- my body desperately fighting against its inevitable end. My body refusing to give in , starts circulating the foreign mana from my surroundings into my body. I can feel it- something. Anything. My senses coming back to me, slowly- the beast stares at as it feels its prey clinging onto life.

It continues to drink the blood, seeing no worth stop its efforts.

"Dilatio"

--

A magical enchanted sword pierced through Argo, straight through the beast....

Right into me.

No one noticed.

I start choking in my own blood, drowning.

No amount of mana could save me now. My body lost all functions, desperate. Air, I need to f*cking breath. Tears started welling up in my eyes, my hands around my throat. Too much f*cking blood.. I'm going into shock.

My last few moments, unable to fight back. The behemoth lost all its strength, just like me, was skewered by the sword; its blood red eyes still staring down at me. The blood from the beast running along the sword, covering my face, my eyes, seeping into my would.

I didn't want this to be my last sight.

My last anything...I don't want to go like this.

Hero...save me. Please save me too.

Saintess, notice me- heal me...SOMEONE.

I tried to scream, the blood rising from my throat stopped any sounds coming out. No one would have noticed anyways, the noise of battle drowned my pleas.

I turn my head, watching the Heroes colliding against Sin... wait no...Demon.

The Hero party- The last ones, protecting the world and shit... maybe they can do it. Stop this war, stop the Demons coming here. I watched Klaus burn his mana to cut down Sin.

"Tide"

I heard it. The Tide spell.

Ah, he wasn't planning to make it out of here alive.

I see Romulus and Ophelia pin down the Demon as it fell down. Jasmine broke the circle.

BOOM.

Mana flooded the room. The circle broken but the Schism stayed open...

Sin dead on the floor, Gamir pierced through him.

An enchantment circle appeared in front of the Schism; tendrils of energy latched onto Sin. The Stormholden family being the mana conduit, continuously powered the rogue spell. The blue energy tendrils latched onto to former king now abysmal beast Argo. The blood dripping down the sword glowed. A energy tendril latched on. Onto me.

Wait....

The Void spewed energy, mana overloaded into the bodies it latched onto. One by one. By the time the circle was broken, the family had passed. Their bodies started burning from the rogue spell. Mana burning them from the inside. Sin & Argo both were dead too at this point. The sound of the spell fluctuating couldn't drown my f*cking screams.

Fire. Burning inside me- I can't hold on...

Darkness enveloped me as I took my last breath.

"Open your eyes child"

"Open we say"

"Yes yes open"

Whispers... or loud voices. A cacophony of sounds entered my mind.

Where.. is this place? Something felt off, my instincts telling me to not open. Gnawing at me. Dangerous.

I couldn't feel my body, or I could feel everything...I don't know, I don't know what I'm feeling. Am I floating? Flying? I feel suspended in something. Stuck in place...

"Child...open your eyes"

Curiosity started seeping in my mind... I was sure I died, The feeling of burning on the inside wouldn't leave me so soon. Where was I? The afterlife? Bliss?

No... I've committed to many sins to even think there was something better waiting for me.

There was nothing to lose. So I opened my eyes...

--

The Dark void stared at me... No.. I'm inside the dark void.

The Schism had taken me.

I don't even know if my eyes are open. Fear started to set in. I couldn't feel my body, even the actions of opening my eyes didn't feel real.

Was I even f*cking breathing...

Crackling could be heard all around me.. blue blots of energy appearing all around me...

"Look child, look unto the void!" The voices all around me said. They caved right into my mind... shouting, screaming, whispering.

Shouts of joy & laughter.

Sadness and maddening rage.

All saying the same thing.

The blue bolts coalesced. Exploded.

The energy poured into my eyes. Everything that is possible, conceivable...

I could see it.

Every life, every power, every skill. I can grasp it.

War, famine, power.

I can achieve it.

I can destroy every existence. All worlds.

Everything I touch shall fear me. I will burn my name into all souls.

Everyone shall know my wrath.

FEAR ME.

Wait.

What am I saying....

I screamed.. if I was screaming.

I resisted, I fought back.

I laughed. It tickled

I cried. It was extremely sad.

I embraced it?

The energy kept pouring into my eyes- Did I even fight back?

This void I was in.. The Schism, how would I fight back?

Whatever I had left of me was in that cavern- bleeding out from the Hero's sword.

Whatever I am in the Schism. I wholeheartedly accept. I can't resist here, I have no power here...

Laughter.

Maniacal laughter echoed, intense laughter.

"GOOD "

I made the wrong choice. I screamed...

The energy blinded me till I was nothing.

Until I was one with the Schism.

"Brother, wake uppp"

My eyes fluttered open.
