The Absolute Humanity’s Second Chance

It was disgusting. Juliette made sure to cover her mouth in case she vomited. Or any blood would fly into her mouth, when it explodes.

For that was not all. The hand was not even human-like. It was more like a fore limb of the a beasts with three fingers, or rather paws?

The left hand was the opposite, completely thin, like a stick. And being very dark in color, like burnt flesh.

It resembled more an insects limb. While at the hand, its fingers were blade like, and could be put together to form a make-shift spear head.

It had two small wings on its back, and an oval head. Two antenna on both sides of the head, each containing an eye. With two large mouths on its muscular chest.

One horizontally along the chest, and one vertically below the chest, exactly on the stomach. Its legs were like grasshopper legs, thin and powerful.

”…!!! ”

Juliette could not bare with it and finally moved behind Damien. She fell on her knees and vomited. She, she had seen blood and gore, but this… was just disgusting!!

It was just horrific.

”Yeah. A demon. A low leveled demon at that. Its as hideous as ever. ” Damien thought out loud to himself. Glancing at Juliette from the corner of his eyes.

”You good? ”

”Fi-– Fine… ” Juliette responded in between her deep breathing. She was afraid to turn around and look at that thing. In case she emptied her bowels by vomiting even her intestines.

”Alright then. ”

Damien said and nodded at her response.

He then flexed his muscles and took a single step forward, adding ”Don worry, Ill make sure its dead as hell in a jiffy. ”

”You just make sure to watch our soroundings in case another monster appears. ” He warned, taking his second step, but the frightened Juliette was faster.

”Hm? ”

She held onto his leg, or rather, his trousers and stopped him on his tracks. She looked up at him with a pale face, her body slightly trembling. There was despair and fear in her eyes.

She opened her mouth to speak, but no word came out. She was about to cry, as her eyes got moist. Damien knew why she would react this way, and smiled at her.

His smile was gentle and reassuring. ”Don worry sweetheart, the last thing I wanna do is die, leave you all by yourself in this God forsaken world of ours. ”

His words were soft and carefully spoken. Choosing even sweet words to sound even more affectionate. Juliette slightly calmed down, but did not let go.

Damien stared behind him, and realized that the demon was still coming out of its shell. He then gazed back at Juliette, and stretched his big hand to hold her chin.

He lifted her chin up gently, making sure that her moist, red eyes, gazed straight at his own sky blue jewel blue eyes. He then smiled, a daredevil smile. His eyes slightly squinting at her.

His voice was a tone lower than usual. Sounder even more charming, and low cased.

”Look here sweetheart, Julie… times have changed. The thing that you met earlier is called The Primordial Source. A terrifying entity far beyond our greatest understanding. ”

”Its beyond mere godly. And even, beyond the olden ones themselves. It literally is Omnipotent and All Mighty. But what I know is that, it has no ill intentions against us. ”

”Or the world. ” Damien spoke softly, even though his expression was that of a person about to risk his life. His words were soothing. ”As for why I know about this, its because Im from the future. ”

”A future where… I possibly lost all connection to you, my dearest. It, was quite horrible. Which I was decided to come back and risk it all. For you this time. And, hahaha haha… ” He laughed and stood up. A glint of murderous intent flashing through his eyes.

”… ”

Juliette was flabbergasted by his words. She was completely shocked, and did not know what to believe. No, she believed Damien completely. Every word he said.

But she just did not understand what he meant. Lost all connections to her? Did I die? She wondered to herself, shocked and utterly speechless.

Her hand loosened its grip on his pants, but Damien failed to take that into mind. His murderous gaze, one of excitement and disdain gazed at the demon that was finally out of its shell.

His words that had trailed off after his laughter, continued, ”And… Thats why, Ill do everything possible. No matter how savage, or how low, to make sure you never leave my side. ”

Juliette looked up at him, at Damien, and at that moment, she was frightened. The man that stood before her, was… she felt he heart skip a beat, as his blue eyes were purely oozing murderous intent.

And pure killing intent.

His smile clearly one of a devourer, a predator about to tear its prey from limb to limb. It frightened to the core, yet for some reason, excited her as well.

Her hand completely loosened its grip on him. Damien felt that and turned to look down on her, his smile subconsciously growing even more daring.

His gaze like that of a god.

His eyes subconsciously stared deep into hers, with hidden softness and gentleness within. None of the killing intent nor murderous intent held within.

”… ”

”So, sweetheart, dearest, princess, would you… ” He knelt down before her, lifting her chin up a bit more, with his fingers as his intoxicating voice continued, ”would you allow me to became savage, and protect you at all cost? ”

”Yes, but… ”

And she responded obediently, her eyes absorbed into his handsome face, and powerful predatory gaze. She seemed mindless, his eyes being her current world.

Yet even then, her subconsciousness, her instincts kicked in as she added without even realizing it herself, ”Yes, but… not your life. It… Its mine. ”

”… ”

Damien was slightly surprised and caught off guard, but a moment later, he stood up and chuckled to himself. Only one word leaving his lips at that moment, ”Roger that, sweetheart. ”

”…. ”

At the same time.

But different environments.

The Gray couple were sitting together within the room, still not accepting the offer.

Both wore clothes that were movable within, and then gazed at each other. With goodbye smiles, even though Damien told them that they would he together, they accepted.

”… ”

”… ”

Nothing happened.

Both stared at each other in silence. The one choosing to break the silence being Damiens mother, Esther. She smiled meekly and asked, ”How do we accept? ”

”… ”

David was speechless. The reason he was still here, was because he likewise did not know the answer to that question.

So what the hell was he supposed to say?

”I think you scream out yes or something. ” He ultimately shrugged his shoulders as he suggested. Esther nodded at his words and inquired back.

”Like this? Yes. ” She said the last word a bit loud, with conviction and determination.

Woosh~

And along those words, bright light bloomed around her body that sorounded them. David was caught off guard and hurriedly covered his eyes in shock.

Moments later, the bright light receded and Esther was nowhere to be seen.

”… ”

David was now more than just speechless. He stared at the location Esther used to be at, and immediately clicked his tongue.

”Oh shit. Yes. ” He also said the same word, with conviction and determination as well. He was chasing after his wife, hoping that they would be going to the same place.

But he doubted it.

For he remembered his sons words, (You should accept it together, to go through the trials together… like the couple you are. And make sure you both make it out alive.).

Those words said that they should accept together, which they already failed. Then the last statement could be deduced that, whereever they were going to, was not a safe place.

Brat, next time be specific with your guidance. David clicked his tongue again, as white light lit up the whole room and took him away as well.

None of them were ready for what was to coming. It was even more so, when they saw what they were up against.

David found himself with a gigantic forest, with trees so tall, they threatened to touch the sky. They seemed like pillars of the world.

And in front of him, was a being of ten meters in height. The being was chubby, and quite ugly. But thay was not the matter.

The matter here was that, David had to fight that thing. He could already see it coming. Especially when his sons words always rang within his mind.

Fuck… boy, there are many ways to kill either than through this. David was already regretting his decision, let one his wife, Esther.

”My, oh my. ” The woman, who was within a different environment of a plain, covered her mouth with her palm as she smiled.

Before her, was a beast like animal that had lightning flashing in, and out if existence around its body. And as a fast person, Esther could tell… that her opponent was faster!!
