Pain. Pain fills my body. 

I can barely move. My life is being sucked from the sword stabbed straight to my back. 

Wherever I look around, its all the same. They look at me with their smiling faces. As if they just made some kind of Holy Order from God. 

I feel like an idiot for saving people like them. To believe on them. To think that we have some kind of bond on all these years. But I am nothing. They never appreciated me. They never believed on me. Now... He he... Guess this is what I deserve huh? But if someone will tell me to accept this, then like hell I'll do.

"Haha, We finally did it~!"(???)

"You finally answered our prayers, Oh dear Freya~!"(???)

"We finally beat the monster, The great goddess helped us."(???)

While my life is slowly being gone by a drop each second, I try to stand at least. They just toy with me as I try my hardest to walk. My right hand gripping a [Dragon's Crystalized Blood] in the pocket of my trousers. My blood drips on each of my step. 

"Look? He's moving? Shouldn't we kill him already Mark?"(???)

"Heh, There is no need. He should lose enough blood already so let's just let him walk to his death."(Mark)

"As Expected of Mark, You really do know what's the greatest Idea Isn't?"

I hear the Bastards talking behind me, they only think of me as some kind of game at this point. This situation is a win for me so I must keep on going. 

This is my punishment. This is my fault. For believing in the things called "believe" and "Trust".

As I walk through the steps of the tower, My mind becomes full of thoughts, my teeth gritted as I endure the intense pain from my body. I can feel my body becoming dull on every step. But I must go. And once I succeed, I swear...

I'll kill the Princess, I'll kill the Knights, I'll kill the Villagers, I'll kill the Sorcerers, I'll kill the Soldiers, I'll kill the Mercenaries, I'll kill the Saints, I'll kill the Priests, I'll kill the Martial artists, I'll kill the Assassins, I'll kill the Dancers, I'll kill the Merchants, I'll kill the Nobles, I'll kill the Queen, I'll kill the King, I'll kill the Empress, And I'll kill that fucking Emperor who trapped me... Who made me believe on a fucking lie. I will kill them all.

I will massacre them all in the most cruel and most sadistic way. 

I will engrave it into the deepest of my heart, So I wouldn't forget it in my next life. 

At last, I arrive on my destination, The Topmost Floor of the tower. On the center is a large magic circle. However, the moment I arrive, I fall on the floor. My body cannot move anymore it seems. I use my clenched right arm as I try to crawl even if it's the only limb that works. I have to finish it. It must be finished at all costs.

"Hey, I wonder where we could have done a blunder?... What should we have done?... What method could we have used instead?... Or maybe there is nothing we could've done... I just wish it turned out differently..."

I hear this voice once again as I desperately crawl. My mind seemed to have remembered some memories from the past... And then I remember. One woman was also pierced the same way I did right now. She laughed at her own helplessness. The woman called the [Demon Lord]. 

"KuhahahahahahHaHakaHaHaHaHaHaBWAHHAHAAHAHA!!" (Demon Lord)

A mouthful of blood mixed with her laughter. It's seriously a funny story. The enemy of the world, the one they told us to fight who was considered the Heroes true nemesis was the only person who never told a single lie. He he... What a cruel world really. 

"Tch, You still haven't died yet?!"(???)

"Stop. He doesn't have the power to stand up anymore. But the purification of evil will take more time."(Mark)

"That's right Mark, He can't even glare at us anymore."(???)

As they started to laugh once again, I also started to laugh as well, but this time with a different reason. As I now fix my body into a sitting position, I smile as I open my clenched hand to show them what I have on my right hand, The laughter from the Guy who got angry earlier that I haven't died yet stopped immediately. 

"Y-You... D-Don't tell me... Y-You P-plan to!"(???)

"Hm? What is it Cyrus?"(Mark)

"He... H-He plans to... He plans to return back to the past! Stop him at all costs!"(Cyrus)

As they stagger to run forward, I smile my most cruelest smile ever as I use all my strength to talk.

"Heh, Too late." 

And after that, with a huge slam of my right hand to the point that some bones broke inside it, I smile as the [Dragon's Crystalized Blood] Hits the core of the Magic Circle, Thus Activating it. 

They stop immediately in shock while the magic circle glows in a Green-bluish color. I shout as I lose my consciousness, all thoughts and thinking gone as only my instincts remain.

"I'lL kIlL yOu AlL!!!"

And so I, Zell Zafters  succeeded.
