A woman in her thirties walked into a room where a young man was sleeping with sweat covering his face as if he had some nightmares.

The woman didn't pay any heed to the young man's expression. She had worn a red dress showing her cleavage and looked very tempting and beautiful.

However, her intentions were anything but beautiful!

"Trash..." the woman muttered before she poured the glass of cold water in her hand onto the face of the sleeping young man.

*splash…*

The young man woke up abruptly and panted heavily as if he was suffocating. He once again had a nightmare about his father beating him up and his step-sister and stepmother just gloating from the side, not doing anything but adding salt to the wound.

'Damn demons!'

"How long are you planning to sleep, Luke?! Wake up and go to work. At least, don't waste your father's fees he paid for you to get this job," the woman said harshly. "Useless," she said before leaving the room.

Luke's lips moved as he cursed her before looking at the table on his left side of the bed. There was a photo of a beautiful woman with a young 6 years old kid. 'Mom…I miss you,' Luke thought as his eyes became slightly moist before he sighed.

Shaking his head, Luke got off the bed and walked toward the bathroom, but….when he looked at the clock, he got angry. 'That bitch woke me up way sooner!'

There were still one and a half hours until he needed to go to the workplace.

'Fuck, fuck!'

He was not allowed to pursue further studies because his stepmother convinced his father not to spend more money on his studies and just find him a job.

To a certain extent, he was relieved because school and college life were no less than a nightmare for him. Even if he was bullied, he couldn't say anything. He had no fucking power or family support.

He was already numb to it when he reached 3rd year of high school.

But if that was not worse, he was not even allowed to pursue Arts, which he was best at! Instead, his father forcefully admitted him into a mechanical engineering college.

He didn't even remember how many times he was beaten and cursed since he was eight years old by his father! If that was not enough, he had two stepmothers in his life! The first one fucking ran away after taking money and jewelry, which increased his father's violence towards him even more.

This second one... She and her daughter, who was of the same age as him, never let him live in peace! Always mocked him, called him out, and never missed a chance to taunt him.

What the fuck did he do to them?!

Moreover, he couldn't raise his voice against them or tell them off because then… his father would beat him up after this mother-daughter duo filled his ears!

Luke also wanted to leave this house and live alone, but his father wouldn't let him go, saying that he had to finish at least his diploma. He didn't dare to oppose his father as he had fear in him and was weak because of the abuse he had been suffering since he was a child.

Most of the time, Luke was like a servant in the house and had to work errands and other things. As such, he couldn't wait to leave this house, and that wish was soon fulfilled.

…

After Luke went to work and returned in the evening, his father called him into the hall.

In the hall, his stepmother and his step-sister were sitting on a couch while his father was sitting on a sofa chair.

"Luke. Sit there," the middle-aged man said. He was Luke's father, Davin.

Luke sat down on a chair sofa as he faced his father with a table between them. "What?" he asked with some hesitation because the atmosphere seemed off.

"We have made a decision, and it's about time we tell you about it," Merina, the stepmother, said with a smile on her face. Her daughter was not paying attention at all and only looked at her mobile.

"What decision?" Luke asked as he looked at his father.

"From tomorrow onwards, you will live in an apartment," Davin said with a stoic expression. "Since you have a job now, you can afford yourself and live however you want. I have already paid 5 months' rent for that apartment, so you don't need to worry about rent for five months."

However, Merina's mouth and eyes twitched slightly. 'I told him to pay for 4 months' rent! No sex for him today, humph.'

"Oh…ok," Luke nodded with a glint of happiness in his eyes. He stood up and said, "Then I'll go pack my bags."

He was happy that he could finally leave this hell-house.

"Wait," Davin said before he took out some papers from his portfolio on the table and took out some papers. "Sign them first."

Luke took the pen and walked toward the table. He was ready to sign whatever he wanted. He didn't give a fuck. But he still asked what the papers were about.

"These are property papers of this house and our tiny land in Vermont," Davin answered.

Luke nodded as he understood. "So you are removing my name from these properties? Well, not that I care."

"Mind your speech, bastard. I am your father," Davin narrowed his eyes.

Luke shuddered slightly and didn't say anything as he quickly signed the papers and went back to his room.

…

He just lay on his bed after packing his clothes and other things, thinking about happy memories that he barely remembered as they were only with his mother and him.

As for his father? He didn't even want to think about him.

'Hehe, boy. Are you sure?'

"Who!?" Luke was suddenly startled to hear a creepy voice that reverberated in his head.

'Don't try to find me. Only you can hear me, and that too in your head.'

"Y-you…who are you?" Luke was startled and scared by this sudden phenomenon.

"Relax, I have no intention of hurting you. Hahaha, I just finished reading everyone's memories in this house, including yours. They were quite interesting. Alas, you signed those papers wrongly."

"What do you mean?" Luke asked as his anxiety reduced after confirming that nothing was happening to him.

"You don't know, but that property in Vermont is not tiny, and this house and that property both were given to your father by his father-in-law when you were born. That's why those properties had your name on them. They should belong to you."

Luke sighed and lay down on the bed. "I don't give a fuck. I am finally free from this house and will live alone peacefully."

Suddenly, a palm-sized creature with two golden horns and a pair of wings with black and golden patterns appeared in front of Luke's face. The creature also wore golden armor with a brown, gold, and red design.

However, Luke got scared and involuntarily screamed…but no sound came out.

Luke tried to speak, but he couldn't hear his own voice.

"Relax, hahaha. I just sealed your voice and prevented a ruckus. Anyway, let me introduce myself. I am Ulioran from the Ninth Realm," Ulioran said with a grin, showing his white teeth.

"You what?" Luke was confused and then surprised. "I can hear my voice again."

"Yes. Now listen, kid. If you think your future is going to be peaceful, then you are wrong. I haven't seen your future, but I have calculated it to be very bad. However, I will give you a chance to enjoy it. So goodbye. We will meet soon," Ulioran said while laughing before he disappeared.

Luke was startled to see Ulioran suddenly disappearing, and then he felt dizzy and closed his eyes. After he fell asleep, a tiny golden spark appeared on top of Luke out of nowhere and entered his forehead.

…

Luke spent the next two years peacefully. He worked in his job to earn money and bought anime, manga, and video games to play. He lived his life without taking stress as much as possible and just enjoyed peace. He didn't like to be social because of his past, and he was fine living in his tiny world.

On the day of Luke's 23rd birthday, he bought a cake for himself again, just like last year. Except for when his mother was alive, this was the 2nd time he celebrated his birthday.

Of course, he didn't sing happy birthday to himself or something like that. He was just going to cut the cake and eat it while watching some anime.

He was alone in the apartment because he didn't have colleagues as friends. In the workplace, he only did work and nothing else since he didn't understand social interaction that much and was not that trusting of others because of his upbringing.

He had never had friends in the first place since middle school, so he didn't know what friends were for in real life. Of course, the situations in anime and manga are different. He liked Nakama power in that, but there was no such thing in reality for him. He didn't believe that.

*knock knock…*

Just as he was going to cut the cake, he heard the knocking on his door.

He wondered who it could be and walked towards the door before looking at the peephole. 'Why is Rosa here? Don't tell me?'

Luke opened the door and saw his step-sister with a guy of the same age.

"Hey Luke, I am going to borrow your room for a bit," Rosa said with a smile. She had a bob-cut hairstyle, big boobs, and a perfect sexy body just like her mother.

"No!" Luke rejected firmly. "Leave. I won't tolerate you more."

"Should I beat him up, babe? Heh," the man standing beside Rosa sneered as he put his hand her Rosa's shoulder.

Luke was slightly scared because this dude that came with her step-sister was a hunk and muscled, unlike him.

"No need," Rosa said as she narrowed her eyes and walked toward Luke. "Give us your room and just sit in the hall. We'll leave after finishing."

She pushed him away and brought her boyfriend inside.

"Oh, it's your birthday? Haha, happy birthday," Rosa said laughingly before she entered the room with her boyfriend and closed the room. "Anyway, you should also get a girlfriend and graduate already, haha."

Luke gritted his teeth and felt angry! This bitch was mocking him despite knowing he couldn't do shit. He just wanted to live peacefully now, but this bitch coming here to annoy him was making him mental.

'Leave me alone!'

'Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!!!' Luke cursed in his head as he sat down in the small living room. Shortly afterward, he started hearing moans from his bedroom.

'Why? Why do I have to live like this? FUCK THEM!' Luke cursed with his head buried down as he sat curled up and closed his ears.

However, after two minutes, he couldn't take it anymore!

'Bitch!!' Luke cursed as he snapped and stood up. He went to the storage room and took out a metal pole that he had because of his mechanical work and took out a key to unlock his bedroom.

Taking a deep breath, he walked towards his bedroom door and unlocked it before quickly opening it and rushing towards Rosa's hunky boyfriend.

"Haaa!" Luke shouted and hit the metal pole on the head of Rosa's boyfriend with his full power.

*TANGG!*

Blood gushed out as the man fainted right away.

"Y-You… You, what did you do?!" Rosa was scared shitless at the sudden outburst of Luke and backed away.

"Get the fuck out of my apartment and take him with you," Luke said while gritting his teeth. "I have nothing to lose, and I don't give a fuck about my life anymore. I would rather kill you even if it gets me killed instead of living like this, suppressed by you and your asshole parents."

Luke looked at her fainted boyfriend and raised his hand.

"What are you doi-"

*Tangg!*

"Arghhhhhhhhh!" Rosa's boyfriend woke up screaming as Luke broke his right leg.

"Bastard! I'll kill you!"

"Kill me? Go ahead!" Luke angrily shouted with a maddening expression. "But before that, I will kill both of you! Either you never trouble me again, or let's just all fucking die here!"

"You!…" Rosa's boyfriend suddenly felt fearful. 'This bastard… He has no regard for his life anymore… Fucking madman!'

Rosa was also shocked to the core and felt fear.

"It fucking hurts!! C-Call ambulance please," Rosa's boyfriend felt pain increasing with each second, and even tears appeared in his eyes as he clenched his teeth and fist in pain.

"Wear clothes and get him out of here. Call an ambulance after getting out of my apartment," Luke said with a maddening expression. "If you ever come here again, I'll be ready with a gun next time and shoot you before shooting myself!

Soon after they left, Luke lay on the floor of his small living room and mumbled, "I guess she really won't come again for such a thing."

Of course, Luke was not going to destroy his peaceful life by killing someone. He was really angry, though. But in the end, it was a threat, and it seemed to have worked.

…

Time passed as Luke continued with his miserable solo life. His ambition had died, his dad killed them. But he was happy with his current life when he compared it to his past.

He just wanted to live happily, and the anime, manga, and video games were sufficiently fun for him.

Rosa didn't come after he threatened her, so that was also good.

However, one day, something he didn't expect happened. It was a regular day for him, nothing too out of the ordinary until…the night descended.

Luke returned from work and took a bath before he prepared to watch an anime while eating.

But suddenly, an intense knocking came along with Rosa's shouts for Luke to open the door.

"Save me! Luke, please open the door! Fast!"

Luke frowned as he rushed towards the door and looked at the peephole to see that Rosa was panicking with tears in her eyes and knocking constantly. [A/N: Please, dear readers. Don't. I know what you are thinking. But simply, Luke is not like the people he hates. He still has some good in him exactly because of the life he has lived. The below scenario will play out whether Luke opens the door or not. Simply because they can do the deal outside and can break in, just like they do ↓ below]

Luke first took out his phone so that he could call the police and then opened the door after hesitating for a bit.

"Lock it, fast! Block the door…." Rosa quickly locked the door and moved the only chair in the small living room in front of the door.

"What's going on?" Luke frowned.

"Call p-police, we need to call the police!" Rosa said as she continued to panic.

*knock…knock…knock…knock…*

Intense knocking once again arrived with some men's voices as they shouted to open the door!

"Call the police fast!" Rosa said panicky.

"Damn it! What the fuck did you do?!" Luke shouted and cursed as he regretted letting her in but now was not the time, as it was too late. He quickly dialed 911 to call the police.

The call connected, and he quickly told them to help as some people were breaking into his apartment and gave his address fast.

Alas, the door barely lasted a minute before they broke it open.

*Crack…*

The door was cracked and blasted open as three men with strong and muscled bodies entered inside. They looked like damn monsters, and they even had guns in their hands.

Luke was frozen in fear while Rosa started begging.

"No, no! Give me two more days, please!" Rosa pleaded as she knelt on the ground. "I will return the money in two days."

Luke somewhat understood the situation, but he stood still.

One of the men grabbed Rosa's hair and pulled her up. "It's too late, bitch. We gave you extra three months and even waived three months' interest, but you still haven't returned us a penny."

Rosa panicked and cried. "Please, please, give me two more days!"

"And who is this guy? Your boyfriend?" another man said as he looked at Luke. "If you have money, then pay us on her behalf, and we will let her go. Otherwise, we will have to kill her and sell her organs."

"L-Luke, do you have money? Please help me. Just one time, please," Rosa said as she looked at Luke pleadingly. "You are my brother, right? Can you please help me?"

"Brother? Hahaha. Since he is your brother, we will take him with us. Just cooperate and don't reveal that we took him," the third man said while grinning. "We will add his organs' money to clear off some of your debt."

"What?! No!" Luke was startled and looked at Rosa.

Rosa's eyes glinted before she looked at those three men. "You can take him away and sell his organs or whatever. He is my brother, so he can do it! I will just say he disappeared. He has no one in the world. No one will bother with his disappearance."

"No! What the fuck?" Luke was shocked. He looked at the three men fearfully, "I am not her blood brother!"

*smack!*

"It doesn't matter. To us, she is valuable alive while you are valuable dead."

One of the men punched him in the gut and then hit his jaw, knocking Luke out cold as he fell to the floor.

"Take him downstairs and stuff him into the car," the man with a scar on his face said before he looked at Rosa and grabbed her mouth. "We'll make do with your brother. If his organs were sold at higher and repaid your debt, you would be free and continue to be our customer and bring more people, but we won't lend you more money."

"And bitch, we will handle police since we have connections. Just do what we say to the police if they come here to investigate."

"No problem," Rosa quickly nodded as she sighed a relief. "His organs should be good. He never smoked or drank. He is not fit but also not that fat because of his job. It should clear the majority of my debt, right?"

"Just come to the club tomorrow, bitch. We'll discuss it there."

"Boss, his dick is on the big side. Even bigger than yours, hahaha."

"Shut up, and let's go."

However, when those men went down, they heard police sirens.

"You two take him to our underground area. I'll handle the police," Scarface said as he dialed a number.

…

"Urgh…" Luke groggily opened his eyes inside a lab. His legs and hands were completely bound.

"What is this place? Release me! Why are you keeping me here?!" Luke shouted, but no one came or answered him. His eyes already showed despair as he remembered what had happened in his apartment.

After shouting and thrashing around with no one responding, Luke just lay there in despair. There was not an ounce of hope left in his eyes anymore. 'It's over….my life's over…'

*clak…*

The door of the lab opened as a man wearing a lab suit entered with a deadly injection in his hand. It had a thick needle and seemed like an advanced injection with a thick barrel.

After entering, he smiled at Luke. "Don't worry, you will die peacefully, and after you die, you will become useful to many people. Your heart, kidney, your testicles, and all organs will help many people," the man said before he injected the injection into Luke's brain.

"Fuck you!! Let me go!" Luke turned mad and thrashed about madly at the end. He spat at the man's face and cursed him and everyone, but...nothing could change his situation because he had no power.

He was powerless.

"Bastard! Well, you are going to die anyway," the man muttered.

"Arghhhhhhhhh!!" Luke madly screamed due to pain as the thick needle of the injection pierced into his skull and entered his brain.

Luke felt nothing but pain as his eyes dimmed, and he died.

But that was not the end! That was just the beginning of everyone's nightmare that had done him wrong and the beginning of his new life!
