Arthur, once a successful and rich businessman, was given a second chance in another world. He was tortured for months by men his wife hired and, now... he was offered a new beginning but it wasn't what he wished for. He was met with the unexpected when he found himself to be a minuscule entity known as a Parasite. PS: MC is a hypocrite. PS2: This story contains profanity and gore so read at your risk.

Lucy wanted to object but a gentle, harmless force pushed a few steps back. She didn't even have time to open her mouth before Arthur vanished, leaving an inky black fog in his stead.

The trio hid in a secluded area, bereft of anything, living or dead. They were a fair distance away from the Cthulhu base, which could be seen from their location.
Unlike his companions, Arthur recognized this place, this broken city, once prosperous and bustling with people of all races. He fought Claudia here and the aftermath razed the whole place to the ground, leaving a few, very lucky survivors.
