"FUCKING YES!!!"
I descended from the skies and landed on a vast landscape. It was midnight within this world.
"Heh...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
I laughed non-stop until I ran out of breath and fell onto the landscape. I stared at the moon as it shone throughout the
"After all these years, I've finally done it. I FINALLY ESCAPED FROM THAT PRISON!!!"
I bend on my knees
"Oh, thank me, I promise that I will never commit crimes ever again. After knowing how hellish that place was, I will never return to that place ever again. I shall change my fate!"
I can never forget all the terrible things they've done to me in that prison. I always had to endure the painfulness of losing my energy until I felt so tired that I just wanted to die, but I couldn't. Those prison guards would keep on regenerate my energies after a day of miserable work.
Some even beat us for fun, using excuses that "You're asking us to treat you all fairly, if so, then ask forgiveness from the innocent lives you've killed. No matter how many times you die, beg, or regret, you can never repent for these sins you've committed when you're alive."
These religious fanatics never treated us fairly at all. We're like animals to them, at least the ones that are Level 1, 2, 3, and others were luckier than us. But, such shame, they couldn't escape that prison along with us. Well, next time fools~
"Now, I wonder what I should be doing right now?"
I wondered as I looked around and saw a nearby town.
'I'm getting a little tired. Hm? Weird, a powerful being like me is feeling tired?"
I thought before realizing something.
"Of course, it's because the prison had constantly been using me as their generator for energy supply. I need to get some rest to recover my power,"
I disappeared from the landscape and reappeared in the middle of the town. I walk around and stop at a nearby motel. As I stepped in, I saw a woman that is standing and writing something.
"Um, excuse me?"
The woman looked towards me.
"Eh? Yes, may I help you?"
She asked.
"Is this a motel?"
I asked.
"Yes, are you here to book a room?"
She asked.
"Yeah, although..."
I walked towards her and stared at her in the eye. For a matter of seconds, she immediately led me to my room.
"Here's your room, sir,"
She said while smiling.
"Thank you,"
I said as the woman walked off.
"Although, I have no money, so, I'll just manipulate her memories to make her think I've already given the money,"
I thought.
I step into the room and look around.
"Hm, the room's pretty good, yet, this should do,"
I said as I lay down on the bed and slowly closed my eyes as the last thought I had in my mind was what would happen the next day.
The next day.
I slowly opened my eyes, I got out of the bed and walked out of the room, I turned around to see...Psycho?
Psycho also walked out of the room and saw me.
We both looked at each other for a while before we both jumped back.
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
The both of us yelled.
"WHAT AM I DOING HERE?! I'M RESTING HERE!!!"
The both of us yell once more.
"W-WHAT?! STOP IT!!!"
We both yelled.
"Okay, okay, shut up!"
I said.
Psycho did what I said and just shut his mouth up while still having that psychotic face. This psycho has issues. He always carries a never-ending smile on that face of his. It represents every expression, angry, fear, joy, sadism, cruelty, etc.
"Whatever, we'll talk about this after we have some breakfast,"
I said.
"Okay, then where are we going?"
Psycho asked.
"Wherever it is, let's go,"
I said.
After a long walk, we stopped by a restaurant. I am now sitting along with Psycho, one of the people who escaped from The Fallen Cosmos.
"So, you and I are in the same universe?"
I asked.
"Yep, I guess we are in the same boat. What are you doing here anyway?"
Psycho asked.
"Well, after I escaped from the prison, I landed on a wide landscape of this town. I decided to stop by a nearby motel of this town and get some rest to recover my powers,"
I said.
"Ah, I see."
Psycho said as he ate the food that was served on the table by the waitress.
"What about you?"
I asked.
"Well, same as you are, although I landed on the river rather than the field,"
Psycho said.
"Okay, anyway, what are you gonna do afterward?"
I asked.
"Well, follow you, that's what, since I have nothing to do, I'll just follow you to see where would this world even take us too,"
Psycho said.
I stayed silent and looked at him with my eyes narrowed.
"You just wanted to follow me because you thoughted we would encounter strong peoples, which you would kill to grow strong, right?"
I asked.
Psycho smiled at me and nods.
I facepalm myself, but what can I say? When I was still in The Fallen Cosmos, Psycho was an energetic guy who always followed others around and tried to befriend them. However, he usually sticks to me since I'm the strongest inside of the Infinity Level. This guy here had a big obsession with figuring out all of our past life.
From what I heard, his psychotic nature originates from an ability known as [Power-Hungry Psycho], which causes the wielder to become a free-will video game character that isn't bound to any systems. They would gain exp from killing anything, develop any powers upon confronting a specific threat, steal the person's skills and convert it into their version, and obtain their memories by killing them.
However, there is a drawback to this skill. The more the user activates this skill, the more sanity, virtue, and mortality they lose to the skill. Since Psycho's past self wasn't aware of these effects, he, unfortunately, got consumed by his power and became a soulless monster who wanted more power.
I smirked before turning back at him and snap my finger. I transported the both of us to a field that was far away from the town.
"Huh? Where are we?"
Psycho asked.
"Psycho, would you care for sparring?"
I asked.
Psycho looked at me with a smile.
"Sparring, eh?"
He starts to shake before laughing maniacally.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OH.MY.GOD!!! FOR SUCH A LONG TIME, NOBODY EVER ASKED ME THIS. I FORGOT WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO TASTE THE PAIN, DEFEAT, AND VICTORIOUS!!!"
He looks back at me.
"Hehehehehe, your on,"
Psycho said.
"Very well, let's go,"
I said with a smile on my face.
