The boys mind was unlike anything he had ever seen, he was used to cheerful dreams and dreams of glory, sometimes even horrors of the imagination but one thing was always consistent, it was always a dream of some sort, never... this... as he looked around he was in a white space, no picture of slideshows, what he was usually shown before he entered the persons dreams, instead, he was in this white room, why? Even he had no clue, then after a couple minutes of silence, i voice from the "shadows" spoke, it surrounded him, it was cold, deep, and just a little scratchy
[so, who might you be?]
"me?" He spoke in a brazen, almost arrogant tone "who are you?"
[ah, how rude of me, I'm afraid i dont have a name, i will tell you that i have killed hundreds]
he was now weary, this wasn't the boy, he has heard the boy talk in press conferences, this was not the boy, but something else, but what, he had no clue, but instead of being left in the dark, he just decided to ask "what are you, you aren't the boy"
[sharp little Sherlock aren't you?] The thing decided to only acknowledge the second bit of the mans sentence
this infuriated him "what. Are. You."
This brought slight joy into the things voice [oh, feisty are we? Well I'm feeling nice, so ill tell you, i am a phenomenon, brought upon this world by the ability 'imaginator' for he is the reason for all these monsters, every power, every action after his birth, you are his creation, as am i, i am his perfect creation may i add, nothing was able to slay me, while my flesh may have withered i have infected this boy and every time he loses a cell i slowly replace and put a bit of myself in the new one created, i am a demon who will bring death upon this wretched earth and stop at nothing, not even your strongest will be able to beat me when i fully rise]
... 'I messed with the wrong person' he thinks to himself, he begins to cower before remembering why he's here "oh really now? I wonder why you think that, I'm probabably a terrible matchup for you, as i was born with a power that lets me control the sleeping mind, so why dont i make a boy that will never wake? And while I'm at it ill make an eternal prison for you?" He scratches his chin "wait no, ill make a landscape, maybe one based upon the hellscape you come from? Except your powerless, that will be far now entertaining"
[oh? Do you really think you can do that?]
the man snaps his fingers as the scenery changes around the demon in an instant, he feels drowsy as he is now in a sky looking terrain, before he can wonder what has happened he finds himself surrounded by large demons "BROTHERS" he bursts out in joy "I'm glad you see you!"
They do not respond, they only look at him, they are all fat, all have dark circles under their eyes and seem to have chained manacles on their wrists and feet
this looks familiar to the demon, he stares at the sky, blood red, the sun, a warm orange, the clouds, nice and fluffy, he than notices the architecture, cozy looking buildings, but he can't focus on it, his vision is to fuzzy, then it finally clicks where he is "the sloth ring? Why am i here? And i thought i get a warmer welcome" he walks to one of the demons and goes in for a hug "how longs it been-"
he gets hit a distance away, the force of the blow enough to knock the wind out of him 'is this the power of that man?' He wonders for a moment then comes to a conclusion after seeing the forming bruise 'must be, this is my first ever bruise, and I'm retailed in my homeland if I'm correct, but then again, I'm not in the wrath ring, but man, he really got this accurate, its like I'm almost here' as he's thinking he hears the clinking of chains then the distortion of air, he ducks just in time to dodge a chain flying through the air, he notices he's in his old body, his claws of green and his furry arms of black, he can tell his fangs are back, 'I may not heal but these will do, vey well, bring it on' he lunges at a demon using his powerful legs to give himself a burst of speed toward his enemy, he claws and bites, luckily this being the sloth ring, all the demons here move to slowly to dodge, but another problem comes up, their skin I'd to thick, he's continuously biting and trying to bite and tear through their thick hide, the only upside he can actively see in this battle is being fast enough to dodge their attacks, as long as they don't get a boost, or god forbid, the become fully awake as he remembers his time their 'if I'm correct these people are always half awake, slow, and bumbly, dealing with them with my speed should be fine, my only worry is their attacks and waking them, if they wake up I'm screwed, I'm already tired from the air here, if i remember correctly its like an anti-stimulant
the demon of sloth groggily rubs its eyes as the demon of healing remembers the awake sloth demons, and almost on cue and snaps awake and lumbers towards the demon of healing at max speed
'SHIT' he ducks and weaves as much as he can, but the lumbering giant has become very speedy, along with his energy expending to qickly he wonders if theirs anything he can actually do, his powers are taken away, and that hit is still affecting him, his only choice as of now is to run towards a building and hide away for a moment
as he rests he spots a gun, nothing special, just a basic pistol, he picks it up and inspects the ammunition, as he suspected, anti demon rounds, he searches around vigorously for more ammunition but he can only find an extra round, as he inspects the building further, he notices its a bar of sorts, but bars in the sloth ring differ very differently from earth bars 'where is it' he searches the cabinets quickly then finds it 'YES!' What he was staring at was a collection of coffe and energy drinks, a couple of energy shots to, he takes a few of the shots, grabbing a rucksack that was on the one of the tables and puts coffee supplies and the energy drink inside of it, there was roughly enough to kill someone, well, human 'I need to use these when i need them, unlike potions in games, these wont stack, i need to consume them when necessary, if i use them Willy billy i may as well just be killed and put myself on a platter for their enjoyment while I'm at it
he heads out of the building, its currently a barren wasteland, its seems that mans power could only last so long, or at least can only spawns so many, though he wouldn't be surprised they were all sleeping, he walks around for a bit, thinking of where to go, if he was right, he should be back to normal if he kills the ruler, what was his name again, its been so long he's forgotten, was it Beelzebub? No? Lilith? No she was lusts circle, for now he just assumed Beelzebub was the ruler of this place
...
after around an hour or so, he starts to wonder where all the demons are 'they slept long but not THAT long'
as he thinks this demons burst out of the taverns and pubs, seeming on a sugar high, they look around spotting the infamous demon, they roar fearsome roars and charge, he readies his claws and charges at one, he scratches and yet again, no effect, he's gonna need something that can tear through that hide
again lost in thought he gets smacked to the ground
"ACK" he gets back up slowly regaining his composure, then, realizing what has just happened, he rushes behind the demon and clings to its back, climbing up and bites its head, it does no damage of course, but this just enrages the demon further, he grabs the sides of its head and slowly tries to crush its head, again, no effect, but one hand slips as its his thumb pierces the eye of the sloth demon, it cries in pain, this snaps the demon out of his stupor of rage and he digs his other thumb in the other eye of the demon
it grabs the demon of healing in a rage and throws him far
the demon of healing hits a wall as his back makes a sickening crack, he coughs up blood, but he's able to get up and does so, now he knows what to do, even in his injured state he is barely able to make his dodges and poke their eyes out, right before they have the chance to throw him off he jumps off them
after a couple of hours he is able to deduce he's cleared the beasts, he finds his way to the catsle eventually and opens the doors to the throne room with little to no resistance
"so you have arrived" Beelzebub says
"it would seem so" he replies
"you have been killing my men"
"they attacked first"
"no excuses youngling, you need to be punished accordingly" Beelzebub draws his spear and gets up, he's at least 10 times bigger then the demon of healing
"ill make as many excuses as i want, i don't get why you have a problem"
Beelzebub doesn't respond, assumingely not hearing "time to die a painful death" he thrusts his spear at the deacon of healing
the demon dodges and runs to Beelzebubs feet
"what are you doing youngling?" Beelzebub asks
"cutting your Achilles' tendon" the demon replies nonchalantly
"and how will you do that?" Replied Beelzebub
the demon counters "with your own men's weapons" he draws a sword with a six star ingraving, the engraving glows as he nears Beelzebub he quickly before Beelzebub can react cuts the Achilles' tendon crippling him, he falls to the ground causing and ground shattering fall "didnt make your castle well huh?" The demon says as he flys the rough the air
"Y-you should worry about falling and breaking those fragile legs of yours" he snaps back
"oh i will, right after-" he reads the pistol he accursed earlier and unloads his first magazine
"AAAAAGGGGHHHH" Beelzebub yell is pain "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT!?!"
"Found it" he calmly reloads, still in the air. He unloads his last magazine and throws the tuna away
"AHH, HELL"
"that is where we are" the demon uses his new acquired blade to stabs it into the back of his opponent to slow his fall, once his fall is thoroughly slowed, he removes the blade and climbs up on top of the demon, "say hello to dad for me" he stabs through the skull, slowly his moment and breathing stops as the anti demon blade kills and curses Beelzebub
he is surrounded by bright light as he feels himself rise 'what was the ring above sloth? I remember it being fun, oh yea, it was lust'
he finds himself in a red and pink lighted modern looking city, its bustling with people 'man he made this realistic, and very accurate' he was cautious but starts to walk around, he eventually finds himself in an alleyway, he looks around and finds some "interesting" syringes 'these look "suspicious" it would only be right to test them out, i mean there can't be any harm, right?'
