1st Person (Junichiro)

I woke up in a white room, which had almost like the cell I was in.

However, as compared to the cramped cell, there was a distinctive, and disturbing difference.

There was neither a door, nor any walls in this space, and it looks as if the space would go on forever.

As l surveyed my surroundings, I noticed that the constant headache, which I had been enduring ever since I arrived in the cell, was gone.

“Holy shit!” [Junichiro]

I turned around to look behind me, and jumped back in surprise.

A teenage-girl was staring at me. Not from afar, as in our lips almost touched.

She had long blonde hair, deep blue eyes, pale white skin, and a strikingly well-proportioned body.

As I jumped back in astonishment, the girl started laughing.

“Who are you?” [Junichiro]

The girl slowly calmed down, and sat on a white chair that appeared out of thin air.

“My name is of no importance, but please, Junichiro-san, take a seat first.” [Girl]

A similar white chair appeared in front of me and I sat down on it.

“How did you know my name?” [Junichiro]

She shook her dainty head, her face adorned with a business-like smile.

“I know much more than that, but first, I have an important question.” [Girl]

As she said that, her eyes glowed golden with power, and she radiated a white, comforting, but heavenly aura.

“Do you wish to gain power?” [Girl]

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

I stared at her as if mushrooms suddenly grew on her head, and a squirrel was munching on one of them.

“What?” [Junichiro]

“You do remember your current situation right? Don’t you wish to escape this predicament?” [Girl]

I looked down at my foot and stared for a while, thinking of what she had said, before looking up.

“Yes.” [Junichiro]

I answered, my eyes burning with determination.

“Good answer. Now then, will you still accept this power even if it will take away your humanity?” [Girl]

The teenage-girl smirked at me.

To me, ever since I had been confined in that white cell, and had my body messed around with, I had already lost my humanity.

“They forced me to kill my best friend, and I want every single one of those trash to be buried with him as compensation.” [Junichiro]

I gritted my teeth with hatred. The girl smiled, and a small, white circle opened between our feet.

“The contract is complete, be warned however, that it will be much painful than anything you had experienced before.” [Girl]

“You will be sent back into the world, where you will have to deal with the pain while you are conscious. This process will help to forge your willpower, and give you a new body. One that can even slay the Gods.” [Girl]

She waved her hands to send me off.

“Wait, I still do not know your name!” [Junichiro]

She laughed.

“My name is Sisty, and I’ll wait for the success of your awakening.” [Sisty]
