Neila’s hand started to vibrate rapidly, blood ran down his hands.

His father’s head had a dent in it, causing his skull to open.

“Ultimate ability, Grandfather Paradox”.

A steel factory with an open ceiling, a large pendulum hanged down from above, it stayed there swinging and floating like a replica of the sun.

It was very very hot, the sounds of gears clicked in the background.

Machines started to work, each one creating a small pocket watch, golden and glittering in the light.

“Abandoning her just because she has cancer? You piece of shit”.

He stared down at his father.

“Those who have no purpose should not exist in this world”!

“Then I’ll just kill you right now”.

”You wouldn’t dare to kill me”.

Neila’s hands were shaking, his father was right, he tried preparing himself for this moment yet he was far too weak to kill him with his bare hands.

”Why the hell did you invite me here anyways, you abandoned me when I was young, why do you want me now”?

”I heard that you’ve been possessed by Chronos, you possess the power of the gods of Olympus”.

”Huh, you only want me because of Chronos huh? You’re awfully honest”.

She came out of the steel floor, ripping through it with her bare hands as she breathed down his neck.

Her eyes crimson red, her horns poking out between her hair.

”Akari, how’d you get here”?

”Isn’t it obvious? I followed you here”.

”Woman!! How the hell did you get in here”!?

”Shut Up”.

Neila kicked his father’s head knocking him out for a while.

“Neila, how dare you run away from me, after all I did for you, you understand how much I love you don’t you”?

“I apologize, I’m sorry, I barely remember you”.

Her eyes turned bright red, she started to breathe loudly, she revealed her sharp fangs.

It was a woman with long ginger hair, behind her were demons with long knives sharp enough to vertically slice a strand of hair in half.

“I’m going to slice you up into small chunks of meat so you can never ever run from me”.

“World stop”.

He sat down on the floor, crossing his legs and looking at the floor.

“I don’t even want to do this anymore, I just want to stay in my room and cry, why did I even do this in the first place”?

His hands started shaking, his heart went cold.

“Why am I so stupid, am I really supposed to beat the demon king? Am I worthy enough”?

The clock still ticked down during stopped time, like an entity outside of space.

He barely stood up, he was mentally and physically exhausted, his eyes were empty even more so than he already was, tears flowed down his cheeks.

Neila shoved his knife through one of the demons, blood gushing out of his body like a blood sac.

Within the same moment, a familiar knife shaped hole appeared within Neila’s chest.

“Fuck”.
