"Hahahaahahaa" (Most of the guys with some girls)

No... nononono.... this can't be happening. This was MY time! THIS WAS MY CHANCE! For everything those bastards did to me. For everything that I missed out on. How I was beaten... Everything I longed for crushed. My life a total and utter waste could have been no more...

This was my redemption. And with this chance. This ONE chance that I was teleported to another world. Yes, teleported. Summoned. Transferred. To. Another. World. 

A world where all of the douchebags around me got literal super powers. Blessings from a God. A god of the sun, forgiveness, and life. A god that could have finally given me life after being practically dead my whole 'life'. And instead of even paying attention to me, I'm ignored. 

Fuck this god. If the god of life won't look after me than who will?....

"Haha.... hahahaha........ HAHAHAHAHAA" (Lucas)

Everyone that was surrounding him backed off slowly. None of them were prepared for him to start manically laughing like a lunatic. They were ready to push him down more after he burst into tears. 

"I think he's finally lost it..." (Jacob) [Josh's bff]

"It's about damn time. A runt like him lasted way longer than he should have." (Josh)

Lucas curls up into a ball and continues to laugh.

"Just... what is going on? He wasn't blessed by Illia? And why do you all look at him like an insect?" (Pope)

There was a brief pause. Josh seemed to be in a predicament. He was caught treating Lucas like shit in front of a Pope. He'd have to come up with something to say. And what better to say to a Pope than:

"This runt has resented God his whole life. He hates anyone that has to do with religion. You should probably get him out of here before he taints us all." (Josh)

Josh simply replies in a serious tone, hiding a smirk. He glances down at Lucas with devilish eyes indicating his disgust. His bloodlust is centered on Lucas only, and Lucas simply looks back up at him after stopping laughing, staring at him right back. Josh quickly becomes discomforted and reverts his gaze. 

"NO! That's not true! Josh has been picking on him his whole life and this is his chance to get rid of him! Don't listen!" (Alyssa)

"But why would a Hero lie?" (King)

Everyone turns to the king. He had been watching the events unfold without a word up until now. 

"Our Hero here, Josh, was it?" (King)

Josh simply nods, and the king continues...

"Our Hero Josh has spoken that there is an evil here. There have been past cases of Heroes being summoned with a bad egg. This boy here could simply be that case yet again. If you are trying to defend him, than I can only assume that you are also guilty of the same sins? 

All of you heroes, please speak now. The majority rule will decide. Shall this boy who is suspected of being evil be cast off outside the city walls into the Dungeon of Atriarc to die, or shall he be accepted amongst you heroes?"

The room went dead silent. You could clearly hear the breathing of everyone present. If you listened close enough, you could hear heartbeats. It seemed as though hours went by, and Lucas was still on the floor contemplating his situation. 

Hahaha.... I'm just going to be cast off. There isn't a single soul here besides Alyssa that would stand up for me. These so-called peace keepers are just single minded imbeciles. If God won't help me, then who will? Hehehe

After a minute went by, the first to raise his hand was of course Josh.

"I vote for the disregardance of Lucas. He is not welcome here." (Josh)

Josh once again turned towards Lucas, averting the King's gaze and smirking at Lucas briefly before turning to Jacob.

Jacob was the next to raise his hand in support, then the rest of the class soon followed suit. 

Alyssa stood there with a look of complete disgust across her face. They were casting off someone they have known like they barely existed. 

"Then it has been settled. Guards, take this man and throw him into the Dungeon of Atriarc to die. Throw him over the bridge on the 3rd floor." (King)

Alyssa stood there with a face of remorse. She was torn. The one person she considered 'right-minded' in the world as of now is going to be killed off. She looked towards her teacher for help, but she simply shook her head no. There was nothing they could do in front of the king, and any further resistance would only get all three of them killed. 

Alyssa knew this all too well, but she didn't want to accept it. 

The guards began dragging Lucas out of the castle. Alyssa just watched as his figure got smaller and smaller.

Hehehe... Those bastards... If I get out of this somehow, I'll make sure that every one of them dies. Even if I have to sell my soul to the devil I'll get my revenge. 

These damn guards are carrying me out of the castle like a lunatic. I never should have imagined this would be taking place. I knew those guys hated me and saw me like a pile of shit on a clean floor, but to think they would go to this extent. 

Lucas was cuffed and thrown onto a carriage. He was then driven off to the Dungeon of Atriarc to meet his fate. 

Upon reaching the dungeon, he was dragged out while still cuffed. Him and the guards then proceeded to go down a few floors until like the King said, they reached the third floor. 

What met Lucas was a bridge made of rock. The guards forced him near the ledge, and with last words such as "One less evil" and "Good riddance"  he was thrown off the edge. 

"HAHAHAHAAAA" (Lucas)

His mind was nearly snapped at this point, but he was still able to think logically. His bloodlust was just rampant and forgiveness gone.

Looks like this is it, huh? I never thought I'd die like this. Thrown off a fucking bridge in a ravine inside a dungeon in another world for being suspected of being a devil-worshipper. HAHAHA That's just hilarious! 

Let's see just how far this devil worshiping stuff will get me. If there is another world where people can be blessed by the gods, then there must be an afterlife where people can meet the gods. 

Let's go, whoever this world's death is. Bring it on.
