"Silverbrook City"
In the middle of the gloomy place, a Liam lay curled up in a small cage, his only shelter in the dismal dungeon.
He was seventeen years old, but he looked older than his age. His messy dark hair fell into his striking emrald colour eyes that contrasted with his pale complexion.
His face had a strong jawline and defined cheekbones, and his lips were nicely shaped. His eyebrows looked like sharp swords, giving him a fierce expression.
Despite the dirt on his cheeks and the tears in his clothes, he exuded a strong will that defied his circumstances.
He was not muscular, but he looked strong, probably from dealing with tough situations. He wore old clothes that had faded from their original colors, making him blend in with the gloom.
His eyes darted around, searching for clues about his environment. He frowned, trying to understand his situation. He felt a surge of emotions as he gazed outside his cage: fear, anger, confusion, curiosity, despair.
He muttered to himself, his voice laced with disbelief. "I can't believe it. I've been transmigrated." He shook his head, as if to deny the reality that he had been thrust into a different world.
"And to make matters even worse, it's a world where monsters rule with cruelty more than I could have ever imagined." He sighed, his voice dripping with irony.
"And of all the bodies I could have transmigrated into, I had to end up in one that's about to be slaughtered."
He closed his eyes, recalling his previous life. He had been a lawyer on Earth, a passionate defender of justice.
Liam, who had been a lawyer on Earth, got caught up in a serious case.
When he dug deeper into the investigation, he discovered the actions of a powerful gang.
His ideal that everyone should get justice in the world inspired him to go against the gang and reveal their crimes led him down a dangerous path.
The gang, feeling threatened, took extreme actions to stop him.
They tried to stop him with all their means, they bullied him, beated him but he didn't bow down, he kept trying to prove their crimes.
Finally, the day when he had all the proofs and was going to court to prove their crimes, the gangster couldn't hold anymore and planned to kill him.
Tragedy struck when he was in a staged accident—a truck crash that ended Liam's life. The very pursuit of justice that defined his life became a threat he couldn't escape.
And then, in a strange turn of events, he found himself in a world ruled by monsters, completely different from what he knew.
He wondered what had happened to his parents, whom he had loved dearly. He wished he could have done more for them. He whispered, "Father, Mother, please forgive your worthless son. If I get another chance, I'll never be a lawyer and serve you."
His thoughts were interrupted by a sudden noise. The gate to the enclosure he was in squeaked open, making his heart skip a beat. He opened his eyes and turned his gaze towards the entrance. A chill ran down his spine as he saw a creature that made him wish he was dead—a monster unlike any he had encountered before.
The monster towered over him, its large and imposing shape casting a dark shadow. Its skin was a patchy, sickly green, looking rough and uneven, as though it had been stitched together from different parts. Its eyes glowed a bright yellow, shining with a cunning intelligence that belied its savage appearance. Rows of sharp teeth jutted out from its wide mouth, ready to tear flesh and bone. Liam also noticed its twisted limbs ending in powerful claws that could rip through metal.
Liam noticed its twisted limbs ending in powerful claws that could kill him with one strike.
A feeling of fear and uneasiness settled over Liam as he observed the terrible features of the monster. Its mere presence served as a chilling reminder of the dangerous reality he was now in.
Liam's heart raced as he watched the creature come closer, grappling with fear .
Liam felt his heart thumping wildly in his chest as he met the yellow gaze of the monstrous creature.
He was no stranger to fear, having died once before, but he was not ready to face death again in such a brutal way. He shuddered at the thought of being torn apart by the beast's fangs.
"Why are you doing this to me, God? Wasn't my previous death tragic enough? Do you want to make me suffer more in this life? What have I done to deserve this?" Liam muttered, hoping that the monster was not hungry at the moment, or he would meet a horrible end.
But to his surprise, the monster did not attack him. It only stared at him for a while, then looked away.
Liam followed its gaze and gasped as he saw other cages around him—cages full of people.
He was not alone in this nightmare. There were many others like him, too many to count. Some had their limbs severed, some had their eyes gouged out.
They were all in different states of agony, but they had one thing in common—they were all alive.
Liam felt a cold sweat on his back as he witnessed the horrific scene.
He could not imagine the pain they endured from this torture, nor could he bear the thought that he would soon share their fate.
Liam watched in horror as the monster approached a cage near his own, opened it, and grabbed a man by the neck like a chicken.
"Please, let me go!"
"Please, don't kill me!"
"I don't want to die!"
The man's screams and pleas echoed in the silent room, where everyone could hear his desperate cries. Liam averted his eyes from the gruesome sight, his face pale with fear and terror.
He heard the monster's footsteps and the man's voice fade away.
Liam looked at the door, where the monster had left. The room was quiet, but the minds of those who remained were not.
Liam wished he could find a way to end his life, but he realized that he had no means to do so.
He was chained to the center of his cage, unable to move his body.
He felt nothing but helplessness and fear. He had no choice but to wait for his death.
Liam sat there motionlessly, giving up on his fate.
He began to recall the memories of the body he had transmigrated into, to find out who he was.
His eyes gradually turned red as he looked through his memories.
This boy was also named Liam, and his parents were Eamon and Elara.
They belonged to the Silverthorn clan, the strongest clan in Silverbrook City.
He was the young master of his clan and the first genius in the whole Silverbrook City. He had a bright future ahead of him.
Their life was happy, they ruled the city with pride, until the monsters invaded.
Monsters attacked the whole world, some submitted to their power and accepted their rule, but some resisted and faced their wrath.
His family was among those who resisted, they never bowed to anyone in their history, they had overcome many challenges but never lowered their heads.
The monsters sent an army of their kind to wipe out his family in one night.
He could never forget that night, the night when he saw his family's blood stain the sky red.
"Liam, run away!"
"Liam, run!"
He could still hear his parents' hopeless cries, when they were slaughtered by the monsters.
"Father!"
"Mother!"
Liam let out a pained cry as he witnessed the scene, even though he was not their real son, he felt like he was. He had inherited the emotions of this body, and every cell of his body was screaming for vengeance against the monsters who killed his family.
"Kill" Kill" Kill"
He repeated this word in his subconscious state.
