Chapter 1 - Prologue: Sleep Paralysis

Lying on the bed, I open my eyes after shaking out of my sleep in the middle of the one of the coldest nights I've ever witnessed, despite it being the middle of the summer.

It's very dark indeed, but I can see the clock on the wall.

"3:00 AM... It's the middle of the night."

"Uhh what day is it now...?"

"Like Saturday?"

"Oh yeah, I'm right it is indeed Saturday."

I say to myself, but soon enough I start to feel thirsty, so I decide to get up and go drink some water.

"Wait... what's going on?"

"Why can't I move?!"

I say with confused tone while looking around the room.

I try to move my hands and legs, but I cannot.

Suddenly I hear soft footsteps getting louder, I look at the oppened door, just to see a dark Silhouette with long black hair, walking towards me in a slow pace.

"Who are you?!"

"What is the meaning behind all of this."

I say, my voice is shaky and a drop of sweat rolls down my forehead, right onto the nose.

The Silhouette just keeps walking slowly, and after what seemed like couple of hours, it's finally standing next to my bed.

"Ah... I get it now."

"It must be a sleep paralysis!"

"I'm glad it's just a sleep paralysis..."

I say with a happy tone, but deep inside I still feel fear and unease.

The Silhouette slowly climbs onto my bed, and then slowly starts to climb on top of me, after a moment it lies down on top of me, and presses its body against mine.

I feel the Silhouette's body and the curves just scream out loud, that it's a woman, but her skin is cold, cold like the most powerfull Ice Magic to ever be casted.

"What the he-..."

The Silhouette puts her finger on my lips to prevent me from speaking further, and as she removes it, she tries to wrap her arms around my body, but she couldn't because od the bed sheets, it wasn't a tight grip either, just a gentle but noticeable one.

She then sits up on my stomach and looks into my eyes.

It's quite a weird feeling, she has no face, or atleast I cannot see it, and she's staring at me like that.

She starts to move her head, looking at my face from different angles.

After a moment she lies down on top of me again, and then cups my cheeks with her cold hands and starts caressing them.

Her nails are long enough to softly dig into my cheekbones.

"Who's that woman?!"

"What the hell does she want from me?"

"This sleep paralysis better be over in a moment, because I need to go poop, or else I'll shit my pants."

"When will she leave?!"

"When the sleep paralysis will end?"

All these thoughts wander throught my mind as I look at this weird woman.

I close my eyes tightly, and after a minute, the feeling of being touched completely vanishes.

"Huh?"

I slowly open my eyes and to my surprise, the woman is gone, as simply and fast as she appeared.

I feel something and I look under the blanket.

"Shit... again?"

"I swear it was like yesterday aswell!"

"Damn puberty!"

I say to myself in frustration, and then I stand up from the bed and I start to walk towards the bathroom.

"Brrr..."

"Its still cold everywhere."

"No matter where I go, I feel this cold."

I say to myself while walking and breathing into my hands to warm myself up.

I go into the bathroom, and after about 5 minutes of cleaning this mess I walk out and yawn a little.

"I don't think that I will gonna sleep again tonight."

"Maybe I should go read some books, to atleast get the magic theory right?"

"After all I have my first day on Monday."

"Yeah, that's a good idea I guess."

I say to myself, and I start to walk towards my room.

I sit down at the desk, that's not so far away from my bed, and then I take out a book from a drawer.

"Brrr..."

"It's still freezing here."

I blow the dust off the book's cover.

"'How To Efficiently Use Mana And Cast Spells'"

"I swear to god, who the hell made this title?"

I open the book and I feel cold air on my neck, it sends shivers down my spine.

"Bbwuh... lemme turn on the heater."

I reach towards a device that has multiple dots in it and I close my eyes to focus.

I use my mana to activate the device, it works for a moment, but then turns off.

"Is it broken?"

"Hell naw..."

"Now I need to study in such a temperature?"

I turn around and reach for my blanket that's lying on the ground.

I wrap it around myself to keep myself warm enough, so I will not freeze to death.

I then open the book on page 57.

I read the book, page after page, after page, and after some time my cat comes over and jumps onto my desk.

"Meow"

"Huh? Whatcha want Emi?

"Meow"

Emi starts to rub against my hands, her white tail swishing softly behind her.

"Purr"

"Meow"

"Ah you must be hungry, what time is it anyways?"

I look over at the clock, it shows 5:00AM.

"Whaat? I was reading this for almost 2 hours? Oh my god..."

"Meow"

Suddenly Emi starts growling and her tail puffs itself and swishes aggresively.

"Yeah definitely, you must be really, really hungry."

"Fine fine, Ill feed you."

With that I stand up and I start to walk towards the kitchen.

Emi follows me closely, but she keeps looking at my back with her blue eyes no matter what I do.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, I smell the stench of my pajamas.

"I think it's about the time to wash these pajamas..."

I sigh and open a cabinet where all the cat food is.

I crouch down before Emi's cat bowl and put the food in it.

"Emi."

"Food is ready in your bowl, you little noble."

"Meow"

Emi stops staring at my back and runs up to the bowl, then imiedatly starts eating.

I stroke her softly while she is eating and I hear her making some "purr" sounds.

"You're so cute Emi, I'm glad I found you on the street."

"I mean, I'm not glad that you were on the streets, but that I've found you."

"AHH... You get the point Emi, I'm sure of it."

"After all, you're a smart cat."

I pet her head and I feel her leaning into my hand while letting out louder "purrs".

"I think I will go wash these pajamas."

I start to walk away from Emi, and I walk towards the bathroom.

After washing the pajamas up, I put them on the drier, and then put on some shorts and a T-shirt.

The rest of the day goes in the same usual way, I read some magic books, rest a little, practice swinging a wooden sword, but despite already getting used to it, the cold temperature doesn't go away for a second.

Sitting at my desk, I look up on the clock.

"Its getting late huh?"

"Already 9:37 PM."

"I wonder if my pajamas dried up."

I stand up and walk towards the bathroom where I left the pajamas on the drier.

I open the door and walk up to the drier, I touch the pajamas.

"Oh! Finally dry! I can finally go sleep haha!"

After a minute I walk out of the bathroom, now wearing my fresh and clean pajamas.

I go to my room, and then lie down on my bed, pulling the blanket over myself.

"Meow"

Emi runs into the room and jumps on my chest.

"I see that you're also sleepy Emi."

Emi then lies down on my chest and starts to loudly purr.

"Meowww"

I pet her softly and before realizing, I'm already asleep.

In my dream I see a shiny sword, a sword that is given to holy knights.

I extend my hand to grab the sword, but the sword just keeps getting away, just like if I am walking backwards.

I cannot touch it and soon enough it vanishes out of my sight, the sword was the only source of light in this place.

I look around and darkness starts to surround me.

"No!"

"Wait!"

"Wait"

The darkness seems to shift towards me from every side.

"NO!"

Soon enough I'm being squeezed my it, I lose the ability to take a breath.

I wake up, I feel like 50 kg is right on my chest, my breathing is heavy and my body is shaking, a drop of sweat rolls down onto my eyelid.

I decide to wipe it off, but I can't move my hand.

"No... Not again!"

I open my eyes and on my chest, instead of Emi, lies the dark Silhouette, but now I can see her eyes, her eyes are crimson like period blood.

"You again?!"

The Silhouette wraps her arms around my neck and pressed herself against me even harder. She then blows in my face, I imiedatly recognize it, her breath is cold like the temperature I was feeling the whole day. Her arms are cold, her body is cold, even her stare is cold. She just keeps staring with those red eyes, staring directly into mine.

A shiver runs down my spine and I manage to speak up with shaky voice.

"What the hell are you...?"

"What do you want!?"

"Can you even speak?"

I shower her with questions and for the first time, I see her now visible lips moving.

"Yes, I can speak..."

Even her voice is cold, but it is also sinister and I'm sure that it had a hint of malice in it.

"Then answer me! What the hell are you and what the hell do you want?!"

"Are you a ghost that's haunting me or what?!"

The Silhouette giggles in an sinister way and then gets her arms off my neck and caresses my cheeks.

"Something like that."

"Though I'm not quite a ghost..."

She pauses for a moment and smiles I a sinister way that gives me creeps and shivers all around my body.

"...I am a demon."

My eyes widen and my body starts to shake out of fear even more when she says this.

"What are you talking about..."

"Demons were sealed long time ago before the Great Recreation..."

She just continues to speak, completely ignoring whatever I say.

"What do I want huh...?"

"...I've already gotten it..."

"...I have you, don't I?"

Her words send a shiver down my spine again and I close my eyes.

"No...no...no..no..."

"Its just a dream..."

"...Just a dream..."

"After all Demons are sealed in another dimension, to prevent them from causing chaos like they did back then..."

She chuckled and laughed once again, her cold hand gently rubbing over my chest now.

"Oh don't believe that silly myth!"

"Yes some powerful demons can cause destruction..."

"Like the seven deadly sins for example."

"And yes, of course we are physically sealed."

"But we are not all mindless beings only made for destruction..."

My eyes widen as I realize what she is saying.

"You... you got out of the seal? How?!"

She continues speaking, completely ignoring me again.

Her hand continued to gently rub my chest.

"Some of us have... other methods of causing trouble... after all, we demons specialize in tempting people... and what better form of temptation is there than this...?"

I blink a few times in fear.

"What are you talking about?!"

She leans closer and blows directly in my face.

"Isn't it obvious?"

"We lure humans into doing things they would never do."

"We toy with them, and in the end..."

"...Claim them as our own..."

She says while licking her lips and rubbing my chest gently.

I just stare at her with fear.

She then sits up on my stomach and smiles in a sinister way.

"My name is Lilith, and from now on, I will be always with you..."

"And in the end... I will steal your body."

Suddenly I can move again and when I blink, she just dissapears, but I still feel something heavy on my chest.

I sit up trying to gather some thoughts and I feel something falling on my knees and then I don't feel the heaviness anywhere.

Suddenly I hear Lilith's voice echoe in my mind, a pouty, but still sinister one.

"Ouch! Why did you push me off you idiot?! You atleast could've warned me!"

"HUUH?!"

I say loudly realizing that everything was real, and she is still here, but I just can't see her.

This is the beggining of our story.
