This man is a demon in human skin!

Percy was dead on the ground. At least, he felt like dying. His clothes were drenched in sweat, and not part of his body was left unscathed. The Instructor beat him black and blue in the few minutes dedicated to their spar. At the end of the day, ...

Percy regained consciousness when something bitter-sweet trickled down his throat. His eyes shot open, and he coughed up, only to find a smooth hand covering his mouth. The hand pressed against his lips, forcing Percy to swallow the viscous liquid.

After fighting, running around, replenishing his mana, and experimenting with his Ego, Percy was hungry again.

He considered going to Leonhard first but stopped by Bertha’s diner when a waft of herbs and cooked meat splashed into his face. Percy spent half an hour – and a few copper coi...

Receptionist Olivia stared at the youth opposite the counter, her lips parting and closing repetitively. She had so much to say, but not a single word escaped her lips.

Percy tried controlling his mana like before. It came naturally to him to infuse the orb in the Guildhall with mana, and it hadn’t been too difficult to stir his mana before, either. However, Percy felt a slight challenge infusing mana into the iron dagger.

Percy groaned as he twisted his body to an uncomfortable degree to evade one of the white flashes whizzing past his head. He stumbled backward but gained enough foothold to dive to the side as more white flashes shot to his location. He evaded the monsters, jumped up from the ground, and changed ...

“Is that enough?” Percy repeated when the receptionist didn’t answer. She continued staring at the glowing orb but nodded slowly.

After some back and forth, Percy surrendered. The inn owner could see right through him. Thus, he told her about his life. It wasn’t much, by any means, but Percy felt oddly good talking to the inn owner – Bertha of the Angel’s Brew Inn – about the happenings of the last 24 hours and the ...

Percy chose to leave the bakery once he learned the baker’s name. His name was called Leonhard Meiser, which Percy promised to remember. He was grateful for everything Leonhard had done. It didn’t seem like a lot, but Percy knew the baker saved him lots of trouble.

Percy entered the butcher’s shop, noticed that the butcher was alone, and spoke up before the hulking man could throw him out for sullying his products or staining the shop’s furniture and flooring. Percy was tired of getting shouted at.

It was odd. Percy knew that he should feel worse now that he ended two more lives, but the opposite was the case. He was relieved to be alive. His breath was heavy from the short yet intense exchange with the three ferocious rabbits, but he was not dead.

It took Percy several minutes to calm down. He had been much closer to death than he was comfortable with.

Was I dead for a few seconds, or was I hanging on the last threads of life? I’m not sure if I want to know the answer. I’m alive… Only that should matter…I guess.
