All negative and positive experiences and emotions ravaged his mind leaving him on the brink of going insane. To the outside world only five minutes have passed but in his nightmarish world, it was 50 years.
In these fifty years he had experienced both love and hate, the past and the present, happiness and sorrow, holiness and evil...
In his nightmare just like the other days, he woke up from his nap and saw darkness everywhere. The house that he lives in was gone, the world was gone and he was the only living remaining together with the bed that he sleeps on.
He sat on his bed and observed his surrounding with an indifferent expression while his arms folded on his chest. He didn't falter as this particular day was just the same as others.
" Enough is enough! Why am I always back at the same place? Fuck you! This game has to stop now. " He harrumphed coldly at the black shadows watching curiously. He had fought with them countless times but he had never won a single fighter and he was killed instead with just a few moves.
" Follow us! " One of them finally speaked expressionlessly as his robe ruffled through the breeze coming out of the void.
Ryan stood up and followed them into the dark abyss.
" Ding. "
" Body losing soul support..."
" Body becoming unstable..."
" Destructive souls becoming active... gaining control of the body... possessing..."
[ 73% •••••••••• 75.5% ••••••••••• 78% ••• ]
System notifications popped up in his mind but it was as if he didn't hear anything because of the beguilement of the black shadows. In his eyes, only the black shadows exist.
Only three steps remained for him to cross into the abyss from his current world. The leader of the black shadows stretched his hand forward pointing at the entrance leading into the abyss while standing beside it.
Before he took last step into the abyss, the will in the pendant acted. Ryan who was like an innocent baby suddenly turned to a vicious indomitable being that should not exist.
" Destructive souls fail to possess fully..."
" Body restoration in progress..."
" Destructive souls being suppressed..."
[ 85% •••••• 65% •••••••• 45% •••••••• 25% ••••••••• 15% •••••• 0% ]
" Body restored completely. "
His body recovered to its normal state as dark red energy seeped out of his skin like steam bringing chaos in the surrounding environment. The space was constantly in the process of destructive and restoration. The dimension was in the process of adapting to changes caused by the tumor that had descended abruptly on its space.
The chaos only happened for a second before everything returned to order. His body had also stopped seeping the red energy.
" Suppressed destructive souls regaining consciousness. "
" Destructive souls possessing body."

------- Earlier in his nightmare ----
The black shadows seeing the current Ryan, were horrified and angry at the same time.
" You! "
" You aren't ...supposed... to be here. I have... to report... this. " The leader of the black shadows stammered indignantly.
" Who said you are going to report! Everybody that ever saw my face is six feet under. " He said with a gruff voice as if he was there and not there at the same time. like a flickering lamp.
Without even lifting a finger,the dark red energy seeped into their bodies corrupting them and their souls until they dissipated as if they had never been there.
----------------------
Ryan returned back to the real world and found his body being gnawed at, very fast which made him to start panicking.
" am I gonna die here with London right in front of me? "
Before he was possessed completely, the red pendant on his forehead flickered bright red disintegrating the white parts of his body leaving the chest, neck and the head as the current him.
" Destructive souls destroyed. "
" Body support system destroyed. "
" Fifteen minutes remaining for the live body to cease functioning. "
" What will happen after 15 minutes? It can't be what I am thinking, right. If I am right, then am gonna die after 15 minutes, right? Fuck me! I will not die I have to at least kiss her before I die. Samantha, my last thoughts and my last words will be about you.
His throbbing headache had calmed down as the pressure around him can not be felt anymore because his possessed body which was being suppressed had been destroyed. He was now free.
Without wasting time, Ryan gritted his teeth and rolled towards the barrier separating Switzerland mountains and London with renewed vigor. " I won't die when the book is right in front of me, fuck this dimension! "
Passing through the barrier, he saw a huge book instead of the buildings of London...
