Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: The Beginning of Revenge

The surroundings were silent.

But that silence—

was not peaceful.

It was the calm before destruction.

---

In the middle of ash and flames—

Scy stood.

He didn't move.

He didn't speak.

But his presence—

was terrifying.

---

His eyes—

no longer held kindness.

No mercy.

Only anger.

Only hatred.

---

"…I'll wipe them all out."

he whispered.

But every word—

cut through the air like a blade.

---

Suddenly—

he vanished.

---

Within seconds—

he reached the forest.

The place where the attackers had passed.

---

"I can feel you…"

he muttered.

---

He closed his eyes.

And in an instant—

his aura spread.

Like waves.

Like a storm.

Searching.

Hunting.

---

And then—

he found them.

---

"…There you are."

---

Deep in the forest—

a group of Class S stood.

Silent.

But suddenly—

they all turned in one direction.

---

"Something's coming…"

---

A presence.

Something they couldn't explain.

---

"This isn't normal…"

---

Then—

BOOM!

---

The ground exploded.

And within the dust—

Scy appeared.

---

Silent.

But his aura—

felt like death.

---

"You…"

one of them spoke.

"…You're that kid."

---

Scy didn't answer.

---

Instead—

he looked at them.

---

And in that gaze—

everything was there.

Anger.

Pain.

Revenge.

---

"You…"

he said quietly.

"You're the ones who killed my family…"

---

No one answered.

But that was enough.

---

In an instant—

Scy rushed forward.

---

He held nothing back.

---

His first target—

a Class S.

---

Before the man could react—

he was struck.

---

CRASH!

---

His body was sent flying.

Blood spilled.

And he fell—

dead.

---

"What the—?!"

---

The others charged.

But—

it didn't matter.

---

Every move Scy made—

meant death.

---

One.

---

Two.

---

Three.

---

No one could fight back.

---

"He's a monster!"

one of them screamed.

---

But Scy didn't listen.

---

In his eyes—

there was only one thing.

---

"Kill them."

---

With a powerful roar—

his power exploded.

---

The trees—

were cut down.

The ground—

split apart.

The air—

shattered.

---

And in the center—

stood Scy.

---

No longer a child.

---

A monster.

---

In just minutes—

it was over.

---

No one remained.

---

Except one.

---

A wounded Class S.

---

Shaking.

---

"N-no…"

---

Scy walked toward him.

---

Slowly.

---

Without hurry.

---

Each step—

felt like judgment.

---

"Who gave the order…?"

he asked coldly.

---

The man didn't answer at first.

---

But—

he felt Scy's aura.

---

And in that moment—

his will broke.

---

"The… the kingdom…"

---

"…gave the order…"

---

"…to kill you…"

---

Scy's eyes widened.

---

"The kingdom…?"

---

"They said… you are the…"

---

"…Demon Lord…"

---

Silence.

---

Then Scy laughed.

---

"Haha…"

---

Soft.

But terrifying.

---

"I see…"

---

In an instant—

he finished the man.

---

Silence.

---

No one remained.

---

In the middle of blood—

Scy stood.

---

"…If they want a monster…"

---

Slowly, he raised his head.

---

"…then I'll give them one."

---

In his eyes—

there was no hesitation.

---

"I will destroy the kingdom."

---

From afar—

someone was watching.

---

A man.

---

Wearing a cloak.

---

He smiled.

---

"At last…"

---

"The Demon Lord has been born."

---

And in that moment—

the true war began.
