Chapter 3: Chapter 3: A Horrifying Death of...
...Yes, I'm pretty fucked right now...
I noticed this cloaked monster with his face looking amused at me, smirking, as if he was just playing with one of his friends while he holds something in his hand-- with a humongous smile in his dark face, as he looked at me with the emotions of mocking and amusement prevalent in his shitty ugly face.
I didn't even sense his presence behind my back until he talked a while ago, let alone his speed that he had to travel from the outside of this fallen planet, the space, into this battle place I have from just a single glance of mine-- It's astounding that I immediately feel that surreal fear when you felt something, a bad premonition that something will happen to you.
As he just mockingly said, "You're the only one left, huh? It's quite pleasant to see a desperate bug that I can't wait to crush between my fingers." He teasingly said to me while observing my reaction, as if he can't want to see my expression of despair and fear in this situation.
However, I know he can do what he's talking about, and I can already sense the immediate doom of my death in this place-- If he decides, then I'm probably going to die.
"Don't be like that you know? You should make this much more entertaining for me, Keizen Al Zohar, the one who reclaimed the Einjenhar's Divine Spear, a pretty good achievement as I must say, you did a very good job on surviving this onslaught of chaos monsters that I brought."
"You're the toughest one, you know? So you should be proud of yourself." He said jokingly with a wide smile on his face as if he's just talking with his friend that he didn't see for a long time.
But I kept my silence, solemnly thinking of ways to survive this ordeal.
"You're no fun, you know?" He just clicked his tongue like a child deprived of his most important toys and said.
"However, even if you survive those countless hordes of monsters that I have brought into this realm, you will not live because you choose the wrong people, you know?" He calmly said it to me as if he's just stating a fact. Well, as for me, I kept my lingering silence or I will be immediately dead. I don't want to answer nor to provoke this monster.
"You're not really fun, huh? F-fun! Fun! Fuuuuuuuuuun, HAHAHAHAHAA!" He laughed maniacally, straight to my face as if he was enjoying my silence as a sign of desperation from the weak.
Fuck, I'm being pathetic you know?... How can I really have fun when all my team... including my wife, my Jessica, died in this fucking battle, how can I have the strength to further survive more, if I'm only alone in this universe, but remembering her last words, I know that I have to... even when she's gone. My only strength to survive.
I can't say that though, so I kept my silence when he said, "Hey, take a look at this thing that I have in my hand." He joyfully said to me as if he was waiting to see my innate reaction.
And when I focused my only remaining left eye as my right eye was almost-blind due to bleeding. I see something that makes my blood completely frozen, and I felt a horrifying chillness in my battered body that I almost want to give up fighting anymore in this damn world.
When he opened his bloodied hands, I saw a horrific bloody... heart of a person, a dead heart torn from the body of someone who wants to survive this cruel nightmare of chaos.
"It's funny, isn't it?" He smiled fantastically as if he achieved his goal when he saw my despairing reaction. It's almost as if he's enjoying this cruel sight of mine.
"Well, do you wanna know whose heart it is?", he smirked and said, "Take a look at that person, you know Hihihihi!"
He pointed to the person he's referring to with strange giggles like a child.
And when I looked over to where he was pointing to...
I saw a bloodied man with wounds all over his body that almost made me think he's unrecognizable, a gaping mouth appearing in his battered face, a fearful eyes coming from someone who sees their imminent death, his big chest was riddled with so much holes that I felt a undistinguishable fear in my body, as I see a big wounded hole where his heart was located.
Then, the shadow smiled majestically, yet again looking at me as if he was happy to make me see his magnum opus, an endless chilling sensation immediately engulfs my body as I see the death of the...
...Hero...
He was eternally dead, his heart was taken away from his body and it's riddled with many holes on it that signifies the harsh battle that he had, and with his extreme injuries in the torso, as well as his limbs being cut off from the body itself. It's almost as if I'm seeing a butchering class method in the Survival Guide class way back in the Academy.
"Shit, he's really dead", As I felt a mortifying chillness immediately engulfs my body.
When I observed him even more, I saw almost all of his bones were broken, in all parts of his body and the internal organs that he had been splattered everywhere in the place that he died, as if he's being played even after his death, and those organs was a way to mock him as after he died. A cruel sight for someone of his caliber.
I almost puked at this horrifying death of one of my considered-comrades in life-in-death of this life-- Although he did a lot of shitty things in the universe that he's considered as a piece of shit before, it's still a deeply disturbing cruel sight of a strong man who is once known as The Savior of the Universe.
"Fuck, it's my turn next there." As I'm already feeling the desire to give up at this point. I have already lost everything in my life so what's the point of fighting anymore?
But as I thought of those things, a loud blaring sound suddenly rang in my ear for some unknown reason, and I'm extremely clueless on where the hell that comes from.
[Tinggggg! Tinggggghhh!]
[Emergency! Emergency!]
That's when I noticed the subtle slowness of time in the vicinity where the monster was talking to me, he talked slowly yet, still happy at the expressions that I have when I see my fucking comrade butchered and suffered a horrifying death in his hands.
