I look at the horde of demons gripping my sword ready to fight. The demons are charging at me, they scream a yell that would shake anyone's soul. They are bloodthirsty and hungry.
My class "Life Assassin" it may sound like a class to heal someone or me, but it's quite the opposite. My class allows me to use a skill called life convert which turns my health into power but at that point I only have about twenty-five percent of health left.
"LIFE CONVERT!" I yell, having a tight grip on my sword I do my final swing, "if I die here, I'm taking at least one of you with me!"
A big slash of energy leaves my blade glowing a bright blue and disintegrating everything that crosses its path. The horde of demon vanishes, with ashes everywhere. My consciousness fading, black entering my vision. My vision becomes completely black, as I lose consciousness.

The two heroes are sitting outside the Gates of Hell, almost traumatized from what has just happened.
"I can't believe he died..." Enaj says shakingly her eyes lifeless like the world has just ended.
"You can't say he is dead yet, maybe he survived!" Ecaj yells, trying to give hope to Enaj.
"That's not possible, no one can survive Hell. Please just, don't talk about it anymore." Enaj mumbles her voice shaking not wanting to accept the fact her friend had just died.
"I'm... sorry." Ecaj mutters realizing that trying to make it better will only make it worse.
The two heroes Ecaj and Enaj after a long moment of silence, returns to the kingdom after making a long journey.
The kingdom greets the heroes with cheerful smiles and happy laughter. Ecaj after a while of rest gets ready to make a speech
"Civilians of the Kingdom of Magic, today we have closed the Gates of Hell!" Ecaj says, everyone erupting in cheerful applause, "But not without great sacrifice. Today also marks the day one of the great heroes died. Alex the Life Assassin, we couldn't have done it without him, and also, we wouldn't be alive today if it weren't for him. A horde of demons came rushing towards us at the end of the battle, if we ran away, they would get out of hell and cause major damage, and at the time our condition was not fitting for the situation. Alex made the noble sacrifice to stay behind saving our lives, and possibly many more. But we will not let this sacrifice be in vain, we will continue to prosper, and we will continue to survive! The next time something like this happens we will be prepared! We will not let any disasters strike this land again!" Ecaj yells, his blonde hair shining in the sun, while the crowd erupts in cheers.

I wake up, my vision a foggy haze, "Am I dead?" I mutter to myself looking around at my surroundings.
I feel just fine. That's weird. I look at my body, no scratches, bruises, or scars. Why am I not injured? I suddenly get a weird looking screen glowing in front of my face.
"System menu?" I say looking at the title of the glowing screen. What is this power and how did I get it?
I eventually start to catch on to how things work, my status screen showing how strong I am, and my inventory, which stores stuff I put in it.
I look at my class in the status screen, expecting it to say life assassin, but it's blank? "Hmmm. I'll just ignore it for now, but why does it say Gluttony for one of my skills?" I mutter to myself, clicking on the skill to see what it does.
Gluttony: A skill from one of the Seven Deadly Sins it allows you to take the health or stats from an entity by killing them or immobilizing them. To get the skill one must sacrifice all his stats while being at an extremely critical state.
"No wonder I don't have any stats but Isn't this way too overpowered!?" I yell looking at the description of the skill.
Suddenly I hear screams of terror coming from another direction with a cloud of dust behind it, "Demons!"
