Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The Rituals of The Netherworld

" Iveral Del Dente Novula "

The Screams of a woman could be heard as she is seen running at the Darkest hour of the night, An Hour of Pure Chaos as her Village us currently under attack, Hundreds of women and thousands of children were slaughtered.

Slaughtered by the attacking Savages whose only purpose is Destruction, Bodies were scattered across the floors of the village while buildings were set on fire, Screams and Wails were the other of the day.

Scattering across the woods were the survivors of this brutal Invasion!!

Scattered across the Western Forest known as Netarita, The Invaders chased after them without hesitation, Since they were not going to leave anyone alive, Anyone caught would be slaughtered.

The Heavy wind blew Heavily Scattering Dusts across the airs, Lightning flashes through the sky as the sky thunders heavily, Pouring down heavy rainfall across the brutal Invasion of the Red Spiders.

Passing through the dark parts of the forest, A Young woman could be seen holding her baby while running as fast as she could, While trying to calm her crying baby, She is being chased by dozens of Bandits.

All equipped with daggers and Swords, Ready to slice her into pieces.

Even though she is being followed, She never stopped running, Running heavily across the wet ground, She held her baby tight when she quickly made a turn, Distracting the bandits from getting close to her.

While running, She could hear the voices of the Fast approaching Bandits, They were tracking the cries of the little baby in her arms, She is seen covered in a red gown while running as fast she could.

Her husband was killed in battle while trying to defend the village from this sudden attacks, Leaving only her alone with her son, She kept on running while panting heavily, Passing through corners.

The Bandits who were trailing her scattered across the darkness, Following both her Footsteps and the cries of her child, Sighting her from a distance, One of the bandits took out his bow and arrow.

Firing her in the hopes of killing her on the spot, since his target isn't running in a straight line, He couldn't hit her with a single shot, But he never missed.... Hitting her heavily on the back and she fell heavily on the ground.

Covered in bloods while struggling to stand up, She slowly turned to see the bandits fast approaching her when she quickly charged up, Leaving the arrow, She sprinted heavily with her weeping child on her hands.

She kept on running as her legs could carry her.

The Other Survivors were caught by the Bandits and there were killed on the spot, Their bloods Splashing heavily across the dried leaves as their heads rolled on the ground, They were butchered in dreaded manner.

A Bald Figure walked into the scene while dressed in skins of those who slaughtered, He held a bloody axe while Covering his face with bloods, He stepped on a severed head when he looked around.

" Are all this the fools who tried to escape from us? " The Bald Headed Figure asked.

" No boss, A Woman is still out there, She was holding a child so she couldn't have gotten far away and besides a few of us are currently chasing her, Her head will be brought to you soon boss "

A Young Bearded Figure Answered with smiles on his face, He is the one responsible for mostly slaughtering all the women in cold bloods, Raping and slaughtering women since they are the Victors in this battle.

" Good, Round up the heads....We will be taking them to the Sorcerer as he requested for, He desired a thousand heads.....We have more than enough to give him " The Bald Headed Figure said when he sighed.

A little girl was dragged before him while stained Completely in bloods, her eyes were filled with fear when the Bald Headed Figure chuckled softly, He raised his axe when he instantly brought down his axe.

Bloods splashing heavily on his body and he licked the bloods that splashed across his face with excitement, Savages who feeds on the pleasure of warfare, They are always excited to deal with the spoils of war.

" Once that last bitch is killed, We are done here " The Bald Headed Figure said when he kicked away the Bodiless Head of the little girl he just slaughtered right now while his men laughed out loud.

Meanwhile Faced with the fear of death, The Young woman kept on running.

But she was already bleeding out Profusely due to her being shot by a poisonous arrow, She held her baby firmly, Never letting him go out of her sight, She kept on running until she fell into a hole.

Collapsing heavily on the ground while shielding her baby from being affected by the fall, Her bones were completely shattered by the fall, She coughed out bloods from her mouth when she slowly looked up.

Since she fell into a hole, Not even the Bandits could tell where she currently is but she is already succumbing to death, her eyes were already bleeding out due to the Effects of the poison from the arrow.

" Oh.....You poor thing!! "

A Calm but Mysterious Voice was heard in the darkness when the young woman suddenly opened her eyes in shock, Hearing the voice as she feels nothing but hope to save her only son from being killed.

" Please....Please....Please is anybody there? I want you to save my son, He is innocent and he doesn't deserve this, I don't care what happens.....Please save my son " The woman begged as she glimpse at the darkness.

She knew not what exists in the darkness but all she had was hope, Her whole thoughts is the safety of her son while she held unto him even though her bones were already shattered Completely from the fall.

" You don't care what happens? I can see you have already made up your mind to die right here today woman but to survive till this point, I can say you are no weak woman but I have not a single obligation to save your son "

The Voice of the Darkness spoke out once again and tears flowed freely from her eyes.

" I know, I know....I don't care if you have any obligations to save my son but I will do anything for you to save him, I don't care who you are and what you are.....All I want is for my son to be saved "

The Woman stated when she heard an hysterical laughter from the darkness and Two Gigantic Blue Eyes appeared right on the Great Darkness of Chaos, Releasing dark fogs into the air without hesitation.

" You will do anything to save your son? What can you possibly offer me? " The Voice asked.

" My Soul, My Body, Anything you want.....I am willing to give you, I don't care anymore, I've lost everything already....Please Save my son from them " The Woman Answered while coughing out bloods from her mouth.

Her eyes and ears were bleeding profusely when the Dark Voice suddenly remained silent, The Screams of the little child were becoming even more louder than expected, Attracting the bandits towards their Direction.

" Very well then, I will grant you what you want in exchange for two things.....Your soul is mine and your child will be mine, On the Eighteenth Birthday of this child.....I will come for him " The Voice declared.

" Do we have a deal? " The Voice asked as you could feel the terror in its voice!!

" We have a deal!! " The woman Answered when The Voice remained silent and in that Second, Her soul was devoured and the shadows of the darkness was risen, Spreading forth across and beyond.

Out of the Hole came forth a Creature standing firmly while holding a baby on his arm!

" Hmph, Her soul was able to craft me a Humanoid body but it's not enough for me, It seems she was able to summon me without even knowing it, Quite a strange mortal she is, And a nourishing food "

" I will honor our agreement " The Mysterious Creature spoke out when he grinned evily, A Being of Four Horns as he stood while being covered in shadows, Bright flaming blue eyes as he grinned evily.

With a Pentagram Symbol Glowing brightly on his chest when he gazed at the Bandits who followed the cries of the boy with the intentions of killing him, They were faced before the absolute monster.

" What is going on? What in the hell is this? " A Bandit asked in shock as he was overwhelmed by fear In that instant and before they could even make a move, They were slaughtered in the most cruel way.

Their bodies exploded as their bloods scattered across the air when the Mysterious Creature grinned evily, Feeding on the Destruction he caused.....He slowly turned towards the baby who is resting on his arm.

" What a strange kid, I can feel the Emptiness with it...I guess it's a perfect tool for me after all, Such Great Emptiness, I will make good use of it " The Mysterious Figure said when he chuckled softly.

" I made a deal with that pesky dying woman, The Deal is to protect the child but I guess I will have to go beyond the deal with this " The Mysterious Creature spoke out when he slowly stretched forth his hand.

And within a space of few hundred miles away.....Every Living thing died!!
