Extra's Path To Demon King-Chapter 1: This is, this is the only way..

In an unknown world, in an unknown time and place...

A place that seemed to be bathed in blood in every possible way. The Sky was bleeding, and blood was raining in heavy drops. If one were to look around, they would see countless bodies of many species lying around everywhere, so many that it was hard to count.

There was a large crack in the blood-red sky, which seemed extremely out of place. One could only imagine what sort of catastrophic event had happened in this world and what sort of monstrous slaughter had taken place for trillions of living beings to have been killed just like that.

A quavering, small boy was looking at all of this from a small wooden house on a mountain. Seeing so much brutality, the boy was shivering uncontrollably in fear. But he did not look away, he kept his eyes locked on that scene while standing at the edge of the window. The death cries of trillions of living beings echoed in his ears like the haunting melody of the greatest butchery that has ever happened in the history of this world.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of a door creaking could be heard,

The boy did not look back towards the one who entered. A beautiful woman covered in bright red blood from head to toe was standing at the doorway, and the blood flowed from her body and spread throughout the floor.

After an unknown amount of time, the boy turned around. Tears of blood were flowing out of his eyes. His eyes blazed with boundless fury, looking at the woman who was his very own mother.

"WHY DID YOU DO THAT? YOU.....YOU KILLED THEM, YOU KILLED THEM ALL.....SO MANY LIVES GONE JUST LIKE THAT....." the boy shouted with a mix of fear and chilling fury.

The mountain and the words themselves quaked in pain with every word the boy spoke.

But before the boy could speak any further, the woman dashed forward at an unimaginable speed, She stabbed the sword straight through the heart of the little boy. The little boy let out a gut-wrenching scream while hugging the woman. The sword pierced his heart.

An unimaginable sadness and a sense of betrayal swept through his entire being. Blood started coming out of his mouth as he said the last words in a choked voice, "Why.....mother???"

He closed his eyes as life left his body. The woman held the boy tightly as tears of blood started coming out of her, but her face was already a mess, so it did not make a difference. She said her last words barely in a choking whisper, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my son. This is...." "This is, the only way.....to......"

(The End).

Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang.......

"You've gotta be kidding me? Just when things were getting good, his backstory was being revealed. Things were taking a different turn, You decide to drop the novel? Are you fucking with me author bastard?" Tyler shouted furiously in his own room while reading one of the newer novels he picked up a few weeks ago.

"Damn it, damn it. You're kidding me? fuck you author-san." Tyler was beyond enraged, the curiosity of what would happen after those turn of events was killing his mind.

It was almost like ending the sex right before cumming. It was an extremely disgusting feeling, not that he knew what that would feel like in the first place. He didn't feel like sitting at home anymore with how shitty his mood was now. Coincidentally, he received a message from his childhood friend at that moment.

[Sophia: Hey, we were supposed to go shopping together, remember?]

He frowned seeing that, [Tyler: You bitch, you want me to carry all of your bags dream on.]

[Sophia: BASTARD, you promised you're gonna come. So, stop with that bullshit and come down in 5 minutes, NOW.]

Tyler smiled, and said to himself, "Fine, at least hanging around with that moron will maybe lighten up my mood a bit."

Seeing him not replying anymore. She messaged him again,

[Sophia: Fine, the food is on me. Just hurry up already.]

[Tyler: Hehe, now we're talking. LOL]

[Sophia: And don't come out looking like a beggar.]

[Tyler: Be quiet before I change my mind.]

[Sophia: Be quiet before I change my mind about paying for your food.]

Damn it, this bitch.

After 5 minutes, Tyler was standing at the gate of his house. Tyler had a moderately handsome appearance, not too bad or not too good. He was wearing a light green t-shirt and black pants. He had slightly long hair and fair skin.

He looked towards the right, where a beautiful girl about his age came out from the house next to him, wearing pink clothes. She was extremely beautiful, her body was already quite developed for a high school girl. Yes, this was Sophia. The most beautiful girl in his entire school, aka his childhood friend.

She came in front of him, showing an enchanting smile that would melt the heart of every boy his age. But he only showed a disgusted expression. Seeing his unsightly expression. Her eyebrows twitched. As her pretty smile also cracked. She gritted her teeth and glared at him hatefully, She started walking alone in anger.

Tyler started walking beside her and said, "Quit overreacting, and what's with those clothes? Why do you always have to be an attention whore? I mean all the fucking time?"

She shot him a sidelong glance and smiled while grabbing his arm as if they were a couple. Tyler tried to jump back but was unable to, he became annoyed again and said, "Damn it, you bitch. It's already bad that everyone in the school thinks we're a couple."

"Hehe, that's exactly what I want. At least, I don't have to receive confessions daily because of that, and all those damn pests don't continue to pester me." Sophia said in a disgusted tone.

Tyler had a strange expression on his face hearing that, but did not comment on it at the end.

He looked around and everyone was looking at them, boys on the road shot him envious gazes seeing Sophia holding his hand like that, while older people simply smiled towards them as a sweet couple. Tyler messaged his temples out of frustration.

He muttered to himself, "How did I think, hanging around with this bitch will actually lighten up my mood?"

Sophia asked him, confused, "Did you say something?" Tyler sighed, "Of course not, my beautiful lady. How dare I say something?" She smiled even more sweetly, hearing his joking tone.

Beep, Beeeeep, Beeeeeeeeeppppppp

But suddenly he heard loud horns of car coming from behind. He barely looked backwards and saw a jeep speeding towards them at an insane speed, before he could think further his body reacted automatically at that moment of threat. He threw his friend Sophia backwards with all his power to ensure her safety.

But he was unable to save himself as the jeep crashed right onto him and slammed him into the wall behind. His head was utterly crushed. Tyler didn't even realize how he had died. Sophia, on the other hand, remained petrified at the whole scene, seeing her best friend's skull being crushed right in front of her eyes.

Her body shook violently as she gritted her teeth hard enough to make them bleed, and tears fell from her eyes as a guilty expression took over her face. She muttered in a choked voice, "I'm sorry, my friend, but this is, this is, the only way."
