Awakening

.....In an abandoned building...

Elijah was sitting on a comfortable couch in this abandoned building. In front of him, was Lenar sitting on a chair all tied up.

"Wake him up"

...

"Splash!"

"Is he not awake yet?" Elijah asked one of the male students who was carrying a bucket that had been emptied of its water.

"As you can see, he has been out cold." Said the male student.

Elijah turned and squinted his eyes at the other student, and then he asked, "Hey Mike, what did you do?"

The student called Mike gave an awkward smile while scratching the back of his head and then he spoke, "Well, he did not get knocked out from my first hit, so I had to hit him a couple more times."

Elijah gave him a disappointed look before saying, "What? You can't even throw a punch? Did you not use your ability?"

"It wasn't me; it was this guy! He kept resisting my punches," Mike shook his head, showing his helplessness.

"Tsk. He really does live up to his status as the strongest trash. Even without ability or energy, he is still so strong." Elijah expressed his admiration for Alden in a mocking tone.

After a moment of silence, he spoke again, "Just hit him in the Corex Astartas, I doubt he would not wake then."

(Translator :- Sorry sir but the cordex astartes doesn't support this action

Author:- Well I can't read! )

"Alright." Said the male student called Mike as he channeled his energy into his right hand, and he aimed just above the stomach where the Corex was located before activating one of his ability.

"Bam!"

"Oof!"

Alden let out a muffed groan as he felt an intense pain on his body as if he had been hit by an iron bar, forcing him to wake up from his unconscious state.

When he opened his eyes, he was met with a group of five standing in front of him.

"You are finally awake." Elijah said in calm tone.

"Elijah?...… What do you want?" Alden asked despite knowing the reason himself.

Elijah revealed a cold smile before saying, " Are you asking because you actually don't know or are you just playing dumb?"

"---"

Alden opened his mouth and said in a weak voice, " Wh-why, are you doing this to me? I did as you told me and stopped talking to her, so why?"

Bang!

"Argh!..."

With a swift motion, a chunk of Alden's hair was ripped off causing blood to flow.

"YES! I TOLD YOU MANY TIMES TO STAY AWAY FROM HER. YOU TRASH!" Elijah lashed out as his right hand set ablaze.

"A-Arrrrrrrrrghhhhh! " Alden screamed in agony

Yes! Scream! Beg! after all, if you don't, it won't be fun, Hahaha!!!"

.....

'W.T.F.... I should not have skipped this part in my novel.... ' Lenar thought, question

......

"TRASH! What is your life worth?!"

*Bang!*

"You are nothing but a parasite, feeding on humanity's resources! "

*Bang! *

*Sizzle! *

"Argh!! "

"Hahahaha!!!!"

"How is it? Would you get in my way again? Huh? Say something? How does it feel to have your flesh melt right from your face, huh?" Elijah maniacally laughed as he watched Alden in agonizing pain

The cold smile on Elijah's face which sent chills to run down the spines of the female healer who came to help him.

Even the guys who were already used to this, still could not help but shudder when they saw that devious smile on Elijah's face.

'This guy is a lunatic!' They all thought upon looking at him.

...

"Healer! Heal him" After having his fun, Elijah got bored and ordered the healer to heal Alden.

Hearing this, the healer; Geia let out a sigh of relief under her breath. She immediately scurried towards them, and after reaching them, she began healing Alden.

After the injuries on Alden's face started to close. She saw a frightening look on his face. It was that of animosity, hatred, anger, and killing intent all at the same time.

At this moment, Alden was filled with an indescribable emotion as he stared at the figure walking away. When Geia saw this, she knew that if this guy ever awakens someday. He would definitely seek revenge..

"I was only doing my job to heal people! I am sorry that you had to go through this, but I needed the money, so I had no choice but to participate in this." She softly mumbled explaining herself.

Although it was very soft, Alden was able to hear her.

At this, he only looked at her, coldly and did not say anything, but he still had the same expression of hatred on his face.

Geia could only look away as she continued to heal him. A few minutes later, after almost exhausting her mana pool, she finally finished healing Alden's wounds. Although there was still a deep burn mark on his face.

"Elijah, I am leaving now." Geia said to Elijah before walking toward the entrance of the building in hurried steps.

After she was gone, Elijah spoke to his goons, "Let's go. You all did well.",then he turned towards Alden's figure that was kneeing on the ground and then said coldly with an indifferent tone, "You better remember the 'gift' today, otherwise, next time, you might not be so lucky. Hmph!"

After saying this, Elijah turned around and then left the abandoned building with his goons.

Alden watched on with bloodshot eyes as Elijah led the way and his goons followed after him shortly after.

Right now, there was an extreme hatred seething in his heart and boiling in his blood as he solemnly swore to himself that day.

"I will kill you Elijah.... Just you wait, I let you experience all of this pain a hundred fold! " He spoke with all his remaining strength before his vision started getting blurry.

"---"

'Is this it? This is the end? ' Instead of resisting, he slowly closed his eyes, accepting his death.

"Well, ain't that bussin eh? " However, at this moment, a voice echoed in his head.

"It so sad right? People blaming you for something you have no control over... "

"Left by friends, family. "

"Don't worry boy, I know how it feels..... So,tell me, are you mad right now?"

"BECAUSE I AM VERY MUCH PISSED RIGHT NOW"

"...."

"Yeeez...."

"---"

*Chuckle! *

"Well, I am not sure how this works but, right now you have 2 paths in front of you" As the following words were spoken, two dim lights, one red, one purple appeared inside the darkness Alden was in.

"Become death, destroyer of worlds~"

"Essentially, becoming some of the most powerful beings in existence"

"Or"

"Be the master of your own fate, show the world what's YOU, are capable of"

Hearing those words,memories of his past started resounding in Alden's head.

"Trash! Why do you even exist!? "

"Your perents must be very disappointed in you"

"Why can't you be like your little brother! "

He just wanted a chance, a chance was all he needs.

One chance to prove them all wrong....

As he was further falling into the dark, he resisted, for the first time in 5 years, he started resisting, he started to wish.....

Wish to stand up for himself, to prove that he is more than a trash.

"I.CAN'T.DIE.YET! " He mustered all his power and reached out for one of the light.

And...

*Grab!*

" .... "

*Chuckle! *

"Now I understand what the readers meant, it's really different when you don't know what will come next"

"Well, we will meet soon enough, so see you later, Alden Sanguinius.. " Then silence descended, before a mysterious otherworldly voice suddenly resounded inside Alden's head.
