(AN: Omniscient POV)
Two days before, a few hours after Eshwar and the others entered the spawning ground,
A red-long-haired handsome man was seen kneeling in front of the Bronze Scars Guild building. He had his hair ponytailed, and there were two guards next to him with mana armour covering their bodies, seemingly making sure the red-haired man didn't dare get back on his feet.
The entire guild, except for the guild's guild master, was relaxed despite the red-haired man's warning. The guild master, Norvin Glover, was anxious because he knew that "Vinny Grover," his son, had become a monster and was very dangerous; he might even do what he said he would.
He didn't exactly know if the rumours were true or not, but in his mind right now, the rumours were true, and the man who's kneeling out of his guild right now was a monster.
He had already called the Uncharted for help, and though they said that White Swan wasn't available for now, Red Reaper would arrive at the guild to provide it. Norvin knew that the Red Reaper was an assassin, and it didn't make sense to send him to "protect," but since he didn't have any other option, he agreed to it. Little did he know that even Red Reaper agreeing to a sh*tlike mission when two of the Uncharted members had yet to return home was really unexpected; one could even say that Norvin was extremely lucky this time.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) Maybe not so lucky.
"Your hour is up." Vinny announced while kneeling; it was ironic that a man who seemed to be kneeling in submission was threatening them, but even then, all the guild members felt a sudden chill run down their spines, and they instinctively readied their stances.
The receptionist felt like she had to do "this," and without even asking for the guild master's permission, she clicked on the button that would broadcast the CCTV cameras' recordings directly in the system's "[NEWS]" tab in the community.
"Devilization." Vinny mumbled out loudly, and with a loud "boom," an ominous black aura exploded out of his body. L-shaped horn grew on the right corner of his forehead, and a strange, ominous yet "warm" bat wing protruded out through the left corner of his shoulder bone. His right hand grew long claws, and black goo that oozed out of his fingertips began to climb up his right arm until his right shoulder, where an inverted "C"-shaped spike protruded out.
Though trembling, the guards next to him remembered their duty and rushed in for the kill. Vinny lazily stood back up on his feet and cracked his neck and knuckles with a lazy yawn.
"How long has it been since I came out?" Vinny, no, Vassago mumbled in a hoarse demonic voice.
"I can't believe I had to twist his personality this much~" Vassago mumbled with a wide, ominous grin. Yes, Vassago, to whom the chains from the void were bound, broke when Vinny's consciousness was forcefully pulled out and Vassago "offered" a master and servant contract, while using his authority of kindness, to Vinny's despair-filled soul, which was craving for mana at the moment when Vinny's soul was at its weakest.
Due to the mana control's teachings from Eshwar, which had unknowingly put a certain pressure on Vinny, and the future situations where he was vividly desperate in the past, Vinny's soul craved for mana more desperately as the days passed.
Vassago, who used the opportunity that presented itself to him and offered a contract with himself as the master and Vinny as the servant, with the condition that Vinny be able to use mana, his soul accepted the contract so readily that even Vassago, the contractor, was taken aback, of course, it was only for a moment. From that moment on, the system seemed to have learned about the contract and offered Vinny his "Devilization" skill.
BAM!
And a solid punch from an A-ranked player hit Vassago's face and snapped him out of his trance. Vassago stumbled for a split second before glaring at the guard, who felt his entire body freeze in fear.
Vassago noticed that and, without giving the guard any time to react, instantly clawed his head, and the guard's head was horizontally slit in four.
SPLAT (4x)
THUMP
"!" The other guard's pupils dilated in fear, but he soon regained his focus and glared at Vinny, whom he couldn't find anywhere.
"You shouldn't get distracted in front of a demon, my pitiful child." Vassago whispered in the guard's ear; he flinched and elbowed back instantly, but his elbow hit nothing as Vassago had already appeared in front of him. Vassago raised his right hand and pierced the man's chest until his heart was beating in his hand.
SPLURT!
BA-BUMP (5x)
And before the man's mind could even properly registered the danger he was in, Vassago snatched out his heart and stared at it as it continued to pump blood for a few seconds before slowing down.
THUD
BA.....BUMP (2x)
".....Eh? That's it?" Vassago exclaimed with a disappointed look on his face, and everybody who saw that scene was covered in cold sweat; some guild members and the people watching this live had even wet themselves in fear.
The live broadcast has been watched by almost all of humanity, and even elves and dwarves were watching this video. Among the few who weren't watching this were a few vampires, Eshwar, Louie, Violet, Jiwoo, Katline, and Katharine.
"I believe, it's your turn now." Vassago disappeared and reappeared behind the receptionist and mumbled in her ears; she was absolutely terrified when she heard that voice, but soon calmed down because, surprisingly, she accepted her death quite quickly.
She then nodded her head and raised her hands in submission, "I believe so too." She mumbled and readied herself.
"Hm? You're surrendering?" Vassago's cold breath trickled on her neck from behind; the woman was confused because she felt sadness in Vassago's voice.
"... Yes, because I know I am weaker than them." She spoke and pointed at the dead guards while her hands were still raised above her head.
"Is that so? Pity." Vassago's saddened voice sounded again.
"But...." Vassago said, but this time it sounded playful, and she felt a chill run down her spine and her throat dry in fear.
"What should I do? You are making me not kill you in this instance~" And that was what she heard before her mind registered the excruciating, mind-numbing pain of her limbs being ripped apart.
"Aaaaaaaaa!!!!!!" She screamed in anguish and floundered in the middle of her own blood puddle.
"Hahahahaha!! Good~ this is it. This how it should be~" Vassago laughed hysterically with a delighted expression.
"And I'll be there pretty soon~" Vassago glanced at a CCTV camera and said to Norvin Glover, thinking he was the only one watching the gruesome "art" he had created.
