Unknown Power

Thud... Thud...

In that timeless abyss, my senses had been stripped away, and I had become a mere spectator within my own body. The relentless onslaught of the Demon had left me numb, devoid of any tactile, visual, or auditory connection to the world around me. But amidst the darkness, my heartbeat persisted as a fragile reminder of my existence.

Thump... Thump...

Each feeble beat was a lifeline, a tenuous thread tethering me to the realm of the living. And as it weakened, I clung to it with a quiet determination, refusing to surrender to the void that threatened to consume me.

"..."

I maintained an eerie calmness, even as my heartbeat dwindled into near silence. The inevitability of death didn't terrify me; I had accepted the capricious nature of fate. It was as if I had been playing a game of chance with the universe, and now the dice had rolled against me.

I didn't panic; I didn't despair. I simply waited for the final curtain to fall.
