The unholy contract: A protagonist and a devil walker

Meet Mabus, a 17-year-old introvert with a penchant for bad luck. His life takes a drastic turn when his new stepmom moves in, bringing a torrent of torment that drives him to leave home. With his striking raven hair and deep brown sugar eyes, Mabus may be handsome, but his energy is filled with negativity. Despite this, he has a complex personality, with a mix of kindness and rough edges. Mabus's life is a rollercoaster of happy and sad moments, and things are about to get even weirder. After accidentally contracting with a devil known as "The Tempter," Mabus finds himself on a path to becoming an antihero. The devil sees potential in Mabus's misfortune and wants to harness it to create a powerful force for chaos. As Mabus navigates his new reality, he must confront the darkness within himself and the strange occurrences that surround him. The devil constantly taunts him, calling him a "jinx" and a "magnet for bad luck." Mabus is determined to break the curse and reclaim his life, but the devil's grip is strong. In their banter, Mabus shows his wit and sarcasm, but also his vulnerability and frustration. The devil's words cut deep, and Mabus begins to wonder if he's the only one whose life is a never-ending cycle of misfortune. Will Mabus embrace his antihero destiny, or will he find a way to outsmart the devil and shatter the curse? Can he turn his life around and find happiness, or will the darkness consume him?

ungrateful humans

_ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_ The monster roared from Mabus' dad's room, the sound echoing through the halls like a deafening drumbeat. Mabus and Marcus rushed to the trail of the sound, their hearts racing with anticipation and fear. _ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_

As they burst into the room, they were met with a sight that made their blood run cold. On the bed, Mabus' dad lay motionless, his body tangled with a horrid creature that seemed to be morphing out of his very being. The creature's body was a mass of writhing, pulsing tendrils, its skin a deep, bloody purple that seemed to glisten in the dim light. _GLOOP_ _GLOOP_ _GLOOP_ The creature's body seemed to shift and writhe, as if it were alive and feeding off Mabus' dad's life force.

Mabus' eyes widened in horror as he took in the scene before him. His dad, the man he loved and respected, was being consumed by this monstrous creature. _DEVOUR_ _DEVOUR_ _DEVOUR_ The sound of the creature's feeding seemed to echo through the room, making Mabus' stomach turn with nausea.

"What in the name of all that is holy have you done to my father?" Mabus yelled at Devoum, his eyes burning red with sadness and anger.

Devoum stood aside, his face cold and unyielding, his eyes flashing with anger. "How dare you question me, you insolent whelp?" he thundered, his voice like a clap of thunder. "I am the one who has saved your father from the clutches of death itself! And this is how you repay me?"

Mabus' body shook with rage and fear, his hands trembling as he took a step forward. Devoum sneered, his voice dripping with contempt. "You know nothing of what you speak, you foolish mortal!" he sneered, his eyes flashing with anger. "You dare to question my motives? I am Devoum, the great and powerful! And you are but a mere insect compared to me!"

"How could this kid come here and blame me?" Devoum thought to himself, his mind racing with anger and indignation. "Is this how ungrateful humans are? Hehe, I almost forgot, all humans are ungrateful! No matter what you do, no matter how you try to help them, they will still come back to bite you like a Carnage Wyrm!"

With a fierce battle cry, Devoum flipped his hood and jumped high into the air, his body a blur of motion as he clashed with the monster. _WHOOSH_ _WHOOSH_ _WHOOSH_ The sound of their battle echoed through the room, the creature's tendrils snapping and whipping through the air like deadly lashes. Devoum's fists and feet moved in a flurry of motion, striking the creature with precision and power. _THUD_ _THUD_ _THUD_ The creature's body crashed to the ground, its tendrils writhing and squirming like living serpents.

Blood and sweat dripped from Devoum's face, his eyes blazing with fury as he fought to save Mabus' dad from the monster's deadly embrace. _GROWL_ _GROWL_ _GROWL_ The creature's body seemed to grow stronger, its tendrils wrapping around Devoum's arms and legs like living chains. Devoum's muscles bulged with effort as he struggled to break free, his face twisted in a snarl of rage and determination.

The battle raged on, the creature's body a mass of writhing, pulsing horror, its tendrils snapping and whipping through the air like deadly lashes. Devoum's body was a blur of motion, his fists and feet moving in a flurry of motion as he fought to save Mabus' dad from the monster's deadly embrace. _ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_ _ROARRR!_ The sound of their battle echoed through the room, a deafening drumbeat that seemed to shake the very foundations of the earth.
