The Road to One Day Be the Strongest

Shadow - 110 Childhood Promise

Second, I had a dream.

Old, I saw hell.

That was... tight.

Now I think.

The first thing I got stuck with was my brain.

He was planted in his brain with a magic guide called 'When he defies, he runs severe pain all over his body', and then he was dissected and twisted around his body alive.

I'm not sure what "super high acceleration" is. I've even been granted skills and now I won't have 10% of my original body left.

I made modifications to the modifications, and when I was no longer human.

Muscle strength, endurance, speed beyond man… I was given up from the beginning because I had no talent at all in terms of magic, but in other parts, I was out of the bracket of a human being.

"Useful to Us"

Said one of the people who modified me.

I didn't have a choice to defy, I obey that word while burning a flame of hatred inside.

Alas, now, he wants me to be free from solitude.

Don't leave me alone any more.

- But as a result, people kept further away from me.

"Hey, did you hear about that experiment?"

'Ah...... It seemed like an experiment on how powerful it was, but he said he beat up and killed a bear shaped demon even though he wasn't even ten years old yet...'

'It's horrible... you mean disgusting'

"Idiot! What would you do if you could hear me!

- Hiding and listening to such conversations, my mind gradually got used to something called solitude.

Broke, smashed and scattered - went crazy.

Of all that, the only salvation was the very big - three-day moon - peeking through the window of a small room.

It's like you're mocking me for being tiny, and this is freedom - as if that's what you're saying.

If you look up, the moon must have been there.

Friends... I don't think so.

Just facial acquaintance.

I don't know what they think over there, but the moon was just one facial acquaintance to me, who would stay by my side the whole time.

"... hey, freedom, what is it?

I've heard that before.

The answer is not returned. Naturally.

It's just the third moon, just flying around the sky freely.

A little jealous of the way it looked, I knew I admired it.

I admired how freely I could fly around the sky.

- Was that when it happened?

A request came to me.

It's - the kidnapping of a certain girl.

Some of the requests were totally terrible, and I accidentally turned my gaze to the requesting princess, Mirianne, but she laughed a little and said:

"It's about time you got bored, isn't it? Don't worry, they're probably stronger than you."

"... more than me?

She nodded loudly at the words she had accidentally repeated.

Why are you trying to get your hands on those guys? I wondered a little bit, but before I thought about it, I was worried about them saying they were stronger than me.

That's why I even went to a place where there was a girl - and I was just a little disappointed at that low level.

It was really strong. It's no exaggeration to say that there was as much difference between heaven and earth as there were between the rest of us.

But to that extent.

"Hey, lady, you're coming with me."

"Fine, nothing."

But about the girl, I was a little surprised.

Despite being beaten down by his buddies and the imminent crisis on his own, there were no signs of upset at all.

"We've all been skipping work lately, and I guess it's been a good punishment.... Well, I'm a little sorry."

She turns her gaze towards me like that.

Long dark hair, golden eyes as you would see into your heart.

Before those eyes - I was just a little scared.

Anyway, it wasn't fear or impatience that was in those eyes - because it was pity.

"Still, Alpha, is that you? You'll probably be in terrible shape in a few days. If you're bad, you could be dead."

- And the word became a fact.

By the time I realized I was down on the ground.

If you move your gaze, there's a familiar facial rash all around you looking down at me, and behind it - there was him.

He just said he wasn't interested in me, and he turned his back and went back.

- You can't win.

I was intuitive at first sight.

I'm sure you can't beat this man.

Because I don't think I can win - if I win, I can be one strong man.

That's what I thought and the result of the challenge.

I was defeated.

- I get horrible eyes.

Exactly.

You can't afford to lose, you can't afford to be terrible.

I felt trampled with the results of my desperate efforts.

This is what genius is all about, I was desperate.

I resented the world wondering if ordinary people could beat geniuses.

But I... I didn't stop there.

They showed me that strength, and there was no way I could stop.

"He was still a stretch. It's still going to grow... and that's enough to make no one win all over the world"

What kind of cheats were there?

What genius showed up?

The more I can screw everything down with force, the stronger that man gets. That's what I had a feeling about.

That's why I learned to admire it, on its back, with anger.

"... fuck"

And on its own - I made it a rival.

We should defeat them sooner or later - we made them a target.

He's a genius, and he's still like some ordinary guy, trying as hard as I do, and he's desperately moving on.

I want to beat you like that.

"I can't beat anyone anymore. I won't stop again. One day, I'll smash you from the front."

You can't lose.

I don't want to lose.

So I tried.

Desperately trying, trying.

There's no such thing as a harder guy than me anymore, so hard as it seems, so confident that you can say so.

"- Mine, win."

The word - struck my ear (...).

"............ what?

The vision is twitchy, and the impact runs through the body.

"What... but what happens -"

"It's a simple thing. I won, you lost."

I opened my eyes and raised my gaze.

There was Satan standing dignified with a big wind hole in his chest, and he looked down at me.

And in his hand, a chunk of dodgy and heartbeating meat was gripped.

"... let's just say that even if they decide the heart is still alive, it's a modified human being, just the life force."

"Ba... ah..."

I can't hear you.

My vision gradually darkens.

Your body is losing strength and your consciousness is fading.

"Oh, I... ha..."

"Ah. You die"

Satan, who returned to his original body, said so lightly.

- Death.

... this is what you mean by dying?

My body doesn't move anymore.

I want to lose...... hey.

I want to lose, hey.

You can't die in here.

I want to die, hey.

- Huh, a certain sight is past the back of my brain.

"Hey brother! You're going to be my brother's wife for a while!

That's an old memory I've already forgotten.

I've left you on the other side of hell, a young memory I should have forgotten.

Did you mean when I caught a cold and had a fever?

"So, brother! Don't be too dangerous... huh? Me, if your brother dies... because I'm sad"

Oh, I did.

Yui was very tight at the time. For those of us without parents, we were the only ones connected by blood - because it was important.

With that said, did I make this promise?

My heart broke a long time ago, mad, and I never thought of my sisters or my companions until now.

But now, since I can't go back.

The last thing I remember - was my sister.

"Oh, I'm fine. Because I won't leave Yui alone. So no more..., don't cry"

Sorry...... yui.

Brother...... again, I think I broke my promise.

"Ha, ha, ha..."

exhale rough breaths and unwittingly kneel on the spot.

- It was strong.

I didn't think I'd be able to gather all the great demons that are here and challenge them - and still, I didn't think I'd be cornered so far.

"But that's it..."

In front of me, the body of the man who stopped moving the earliest is rolling.

- Dead.

I know because I'm the one who's created so many deaths. This man died. I also wondered if there were any other life-connecting organs, but when it comes to modified humans, what they say is created by humans. There can't be any such thing.

"... in another year, I might have been in danger too"

When I say and ring my fingers, a bright red flame burns from his body.

Leave the body alone and it will turn into a dead spirit.

Talks change when it comes to demons, demons, and gods too, but if that's a human corpse, there's no question.

Besides...

"With your enemies, your strength, and your readiness. Praiseworthy."

There must have been something called 'cremation' in the human world.

As a modified person, Mephisto tells me this man has tasted hell.

Then, at least for the last time, let's finish him off as a human being.

When I cut my gaze on the bursting corpse, I turn my gaze in the direction where chaos is supposed to be.

"Well, I'm going to war over there too..."

- If you don't.
