"If you were the devil... What would you do?" "If... If I were the prince of darkness, I would..." ---- This is the story of two boys from two different families- A Wayne and A Morningstar. Born in two different worlds that are at war with each other, the two boys, Andrew Wayne and Silver Morningstar, are born in rich and powerful families. Born in a rich and powerful family should only be filled with a life full of comfort and riches. But what if the devil sets his eyes on these two families? What if the prince of darkness decides to use these two families as chess pieces? What would become of the Waynes and the Morningstars? And what of the fates of Andrew and Silver? Can they overcome the devil? Or would both or one of them become the devil? ----- P.S: I got the cover art from Pinterest, and read my review in case you want to know more about the book.

As Silver kept on walking inside the tunnel, he was constantly on guard in case of any sudden appearance of any beast.
Although he was in a much better condition compared to ten days ago, his condition was still not optimal to engage in a fight.
His left arm was still injured and it was through sheer will that he was able to move it at all. An average human would have preferred cutting off their left arm to relive themselves of the constant pain they were going through.
It had been twenty three days since his rite of passage. He had seven more days to return home or he would fail his rite of passage despite the beasts he had killed and all that he had gone through.
According to his grandfather, the reason why a Spartan had to go back home in a month's time on their own was to show everybody that the Spartan was capable of returning home to his family after a battle, war, or adventure.
