As James stepped onto the teleportation array, he made his decision.
He had disappointed many people in his life, and he had been disappointed by many.
This time, he wouldn't let Instructor Michael down.
Life was full of illusions.
One such illusion was the belief in free will.
In the face of fate, not everyone had a choice.
After James was transported to the Fifth Abyss, the interdimensional passage opened behind him, unleashing a torrent of demon creatures into the Ninth Abyss.
As for James?
A demon Lord snatched him, tossing him aside like a rag doll. James was powerless to resist.
Every tactic, every strategy he had prepared for this moment... useless.
He was like a used condom, discarded without a second thought.
Surrounded by a sea of gnashing teeth and claws, a lone General tier human amidst a demonic horde, even struggling seemed pointless.
