Scall pov*
Dropping to my knees, I realize the blood spewing from the massive hole in my gut is finally starting to affect my balance.
Looking up i see the demon, breathing heavily from the amount of magical energy he exhausted healing himself.
“Tired Demon?” I said
“Quite, perhaps you feel like giving up?”
“A true warrior never surrenders” i said a little to confident for my own good
“Oh….But you've already lost” the demon said with sadistic glee
Suddenly I see the demon rush towards me, at death's door I resign to my fate wishing only for the safety of my people and the pleasure of a swift death.’perhaps I should have traveled, not to any city or country but a bright place filled with nature, a place with no greed, lust, or poverty. Unfortunately I have yet to see such a beautiful place with my own eyes.’ Then darkness
---------------------------------------------
As I open my eyes,I gaze at the ceiling and slowly my senses begin to return. I find myself on the cold hard stone floor completely uninjured, I notice that coming from every direction is that stupid demons nonchalant voice saying.
“Finally, it took two hours for me to heal you-”
Deciding to Ignore him i lift my head to find that i could no longer even sense the demon. ‘That's impossible nothing hides from me’ Confused i decided to expand my searching range, stretching my aura to the corners of the dungeon and he was nowhere to be seen.
Once again my aura grew, this time to every corner of the empire. ’There’s no way someone strong enough to defeat me can hide there power, even i have trouble hiding it.’
“Where are you, let’s see. Dragon King, no…..Some random orc….3 strong humans in a temple…...some guy at the bottom of a lake…...old man at a bar…..to my amazement the Demon was nowhere to be found
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
“Confused mortal? well let me explain.”
“Put simply I knocked you out and during the healing process i attached my soul to yours to make sure you hold up your end of the deal so i'm gonna stay in your head till your task is complete or i'll kill you” the demon said matter of factly
‘So he wasn't kidding about the deal and of course i have to travel with the nut job.
Wait a sec…’
For the first time in a long time i finally felt fear, not for myself but for my people.
“H-hhhhhhaa-aaa” giving a shaky sigh I attempt to calm myself. At this point keeping the tears back was a struggle.
I felt empty and cold knowing they were gone Darkhan, Shag, Gartan, everyone's gone.
“Oh yea, guess what else I did…”
My sadness turning to anger I lash out at the Demon
“Yea I know what you did! I can't sense their presence anymore….you killed them all!!!
“Calm down Scall”
“CALM DOWN! DO YOU REALISE WHAT YOU’VE TAKEN FROM ME!”
As Scall starts yelling in rage a dark purple aura swirls around his body violently shaking the entire dungeon
I'LL KILL MYSELF AND TAKE YOU WITH ME, I SWEAR I'LL DO IT!!!!”
“Your wrong!!! Before I attached myself to your soul I went to your village, put the populus to sleep then imprisoned them in my personal pocket dimension, village and all.”
“I'm actually surprised you care for those mortal insects you are clearly above them in every aspect...oh well it is to be expected from an orc. ”
‘Oh, crap he found my weak spot, if only i didn't care for those people. At least there alive and i know what i have to do...I have to kill everyone on the continent.
haha actually sounds like fun i'll finally rid the world of the greatest tragedy’
“So when do we start demon”
“You got over that quickly...good” the demon said curiously
“Well since you imprisoned my people I don't have to worry about them getting hurt and as an added bonus I get to have some fun“ I said as my lips began to curve at the thought of the strong opponents I would soon face.
‘Who knows maybe i'll fight a half goat half lama beast that happens to be a pyromancer or an albino dark elf or one of those tentacle monsters i've heard about from the pirates who say take women from fishing villages and use their tentacles to….nevermind, im getting off track.’
‘I have a ton of questions about the details but most of them can wait it’s a pretty straight forward request after all’
“Demon”
“What's the matter” the Demon said slightly annoyed
“Is there a time limit for my quest”
Hearing this the Demon chuckled and calmly said “Whenever You decide to die but keep in mind if you go I go and vise versa however, I will ensure all your loved ones die with me, so it's probably best you don't die, just yet.”
“Ok good, that means I have all the time I need
But where to start….“
“Also never talk about killing my people again or i'll end you….” scall said with intense killing intent
-------------------------------------------
“Aaron!….Aaron!!....Aaron you're gonna be late for work!!!!!!”
*zzzzzzzzzz*
“Fine you asked for this!!!”
*Stomp Stomp Stomp!*
*Splash!*
Sitting up in the bed, drenched from head to toe in water, Aaron turns to his sister. “But it’s my Birthday...”
