Asher sneakily followed a man who looked sloppy and fat, the main culprit behind everything. He was the one who lead a few street dwellers to do his bidding. Asher didn't know much about him but he knew apart from beating helpless people, the man had done many other evil acts.
The fat man finally sat somewhere and was merrily drinking cheap alcohol. He had his guard down, and Asher was sure that even if he simply walked in front of him the fat man would not even pay him any attention.
He simply put the knife in his back pocket and walked towards the man until he was right in front of him.
" Whaddya want rat?" The man spoke like a drunk man, the smell around him was unbearable but Asher didn't show it on his face, he endure the smell and tried his best to look calm and act normal.
" .… Someone told me that you called for me?" Asher spoke after thinking.
" What? I didn't call for you…or maybe I did, my hands have been itching to hit something."
The man spoke while laughing like a maniac, it was the smile that Asher hated the most. He felt like puking after seeing that smile.
" You know what brat? You have been here for 3 months, right? Why are you not dead, yet?" He spoke, this time asking something weird, " Brats like you are not useful, I can't even sell someone like you for money these days."
Asher had no idea what he was talking about and he didn't care. In the last three months, since the day he was kicked out of his apartment by the landlord, he has come to know that the world is filled with evil people like him.
One can even kill the other person just for a piece of bread. This is the reason that made him believe that killing people like this guy was also justified.
' He is the biggest scum, I am doing the right thing' He thought to himself.
The man quickly gulped down the remaining alcohol and smashed the bottle.
" I want to kill someone today, why don't I kill you?"
The fat man spoke, Asher was also ready with a knife in his back pocket. He was looking for just an opening to strike and he saw the opening, just as the man was about the strike with the broken bottle, Asher moved with the knife in his hand that he had quickly taken out from his back pocket.
He slashed at his hand making him drop the bottle midway.
" Argh! Bastard!" The fat man shouted and was about to punch but Asher has already lunged with the knife in his hand and aimed right for the heart.
However, just before the knife stabbed through the heart, the fat begger brought his other hand in front of the strike. The Knife stabbed right through the hand and using his strength the fat begger was able to snatch the knife.
" Now, it is time to rip you apart!" The man screamed as he grabbed the knife with his hand.
Asher stood motionless, he hasn't come here without a backup plan. However, he never intended to lose his weapon, he ran backward making fatty follow him.
[ Do you want to go to the underworld?]
[ Y/N]
Suddenly a screen popped up in front of him.
' What's this thing?'
Because he was startled by the screen popping in front of him once again, he tripped while running and the fatty aimed his knife directly at his back.
[ 80 Damage dealt to your health]
[ Remaining health 20]
Another screen popped up in front of him, this time red with [ Warning] written over it.
" Yes," Asher shouted, now only caring about a way to escape.
Suddenly a portal opened, like a crack in front of him. It started to suck him inside, the fat man was also pulled inside by an invisible force alongside Asher into the underworld through the portal.
*****
" It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!" Asher screamed, he felt himself burning. The coldness of the winter was gone all of sudden and was replaced by the scorching heat of the flames.
The fat begger was also here currently standing over lava and was facing the same predicament, Asher didn't have the strength to move his whole body which was flatly lying over lava.
A horrific experience as his skin started to burn, he believed that this was the end.
Fatty felt his entire being burning he couldn't even scream properly. Asher also continued to screen but the pain refused to go away. The rate at which both of them were being burnt by the flames of hell was different.
" Save me…" The fatty screamed like a ghost, his entire body has turned dark black like ash but he was still not dead.
There was something wrong with these flames, the flames burned both of them but it wasn't affecting Asher that much and before he knew it, the flames didn't hurt at all.
[ You have received the minor punishment of hell.]
[ Your punishment is complete.]
" What the hell happened?" Asher spoke and analyzed his body, half of his body has been burnt badly. He felt pain but not like what he experienced when he just entered the underworld.
[ You had sinned]
' When?' Asher thought.
[ You murdered a helpless being.]
Asher quickly understood what it was talking about.
" He made me suffer all those tortures just for food, It was payback."
[ Murdering a helpless being is a sin, you were not allowed to retaliate to such an extent.]
Asher bit his lips and then suddenly focus was shifted to the fatty who was still burning.
" What about him? How long will he suffer?"
[ Eternal Suffering until the day someone in the mortal world still resents him.]
Asher shivered after hearing that, how long would that be, people who had suffered because of him will continue to resent him till their death.
He felt scared of ever becoming a sinner like this man, but deep within he felt happy because he had found the best way to exact his revenge on the other bad people.
' I am gonna make all of you burn in hell.'
