Chapter 55: Hell's past (Bonus)
Not only did Hell suffer defeat at the hands of the human, but his father and the entire male contingent of their clan also fell victim to the sudden and ruthless attack.
The human and his cohorts mercilessly executed nearly every male member of the clan, leaving only a few survivors. The females, meanwhile, were taken captive and claimed by the human and his party members, their future uncertain and precarious.
Just as the human's blade was about to deliver the final blow, Hell felt an unfamiliar energy stir within him. The power surged through his veins, and his consciousness began to fade.
When his awareness returned, he found himself in a strange, unfamiliar place, the memories of his past and the brutal attack hazy and indistinct.
Once a formidable figure, revered throughout his clan and world, Hell's defeat at the hands of the human chosen by the gods left an indelible scar. From that moment on, his heart burned with an unquenchable hatred for humans. He began to prey upon those who dared cross his path, exacting a twisted revenge for his own humiliation on weak humans.
Over the years, Hell's vendetta against humans led him down a dark path. He began to indulge in carnal pleasures with human females, toying with their lives and minds for his own twisted amusement.
Yet, as the years went by, his hatred for humans slowly began to wane, replaced by a begrudging acknowledgment that not all humans were deserving of his scorn. However, his lust for human females only intensified, becoming an all-consuming force that drove him to continue his lascivious pursuits.
He was once a prime beast, capable of assuming a human form at will, but the intensity of his hatred for humans after his defeat was so profound that he vowed never to take on that form again.
From that day forward, he Vowed to remain in his primal state, forever bound to his beastly nature as a testament to his unyielding contempt for humanity.
Originating from a world beyond this one, Hell's initial encounter with this realm was marked by profound disorientation.
The raw, unbridled nature of this world was a far cry from the structured realities of his homeland, where flight was a rare and coveted ability. Here, however, humans effortlessly took to the skies, some wielding swords, others astride fantastical beasts, and still, others soaring unaided, leaving Hell to struggle with the fantastical implications of this bizarre new world.
There was a time when Hell's survival instincts kicked in, and he slew a man who sought to capture him and feed him to his own beast. In the heat of the moment, Hell also took the man's companion, a woman, and fuc*ed her for many days.
However, his triumph was short-lived, as a powerful force began to pursue him mere days later, driven by a purpose and power that Hell couldn't yet comprehend.
Unbeknownst to Hell at the time, the man he had slain was a member of the esteemed Immortal Dynasty, and the woman he had taken was a disciple of a revered Immortal Sect.
Though he had emerged victorious against these formidable immortals, Hell soon discovered that the true power behind them was far more sinister and potent. The forces that had driven them to pursue him were more powerful than he could have ever imagined, and Hell began to realize that his actions had set off a catastrophic chain reaction.
Despite the formidable forces arrayed against him, Hell was not initially intimidated, for he had once wielded power equal to that of the immortals in this realm. However, his catastrophic defeat at the hands of the human had left him severely weakened, rendering him unable to tap into his full potential.
Thus, when faced with the relentless pursuit of the immortal dynasty and sect, Hell was forced to swallow his pride and flee, his strength and abilities diminished to a mere shadow of their former glory.
At first, Hell unleashed his beastly form to slay the man, then transformed back into his human form to claim the woman as his own. In this same human form, he subsequently clashed with the immortals, his strength and prowess pushed to the limit.
However, after being forced to flee, Hell surrendered to his primal nature once more, reverting back to his beast form as he descended into the lower world, seeking refuge and solace in the shadows.
It was then that Hell's disdain for humans deepened, his hatred festering into an all-consuming malevolence. He began to prey upon human women, toying with the fragile lives of those he deemed weak.
For years, he wreaked havoc, perpetrating countless atrocities without revealing his true nature, for despite his growing malice, he remained wary of exposing himself, still weakened from his past encounters.
In the upper world, Hell's reputation grew as he slaughtered countless immortals, earning him the ominous moniker 'The Vanishing Demon'. His ability to disappear at will leave even the most powerful immortals feeling impotent, as if he could manipulate the very fabric of reality.
His legend spread far and wide, striking fear into the hearts of those who dared oppose him, for when The Vanishing Demon vanished, death was sure to follow.
However, as the years passed, Hell's hatred for humans gradually waned, supplanted by his indulgence in carnal pleasures with numerous human females. Initially, he had yearned to return to his own world, driven by a burning desire for revenge.
Yet, despite the passage of time, he remained unable to discover a means to properly heal his wounds or find a way back home. His quest for vengeance slowly gave way to a life of hedonistic abandon, as he became increasingly entwined in the mortal realm.
When Hell encountered Ye Yang, he was struck by the boy's unremarkable appearance, yet he couldn't shake the feeling that there was something enigmatic about him. Despite Ye Yang's ordinary looks, Hell found himself unable to penetrate the boy's facade, sensing an inexplicable depth to his nature.
Trusting his instincts, Hell suspected that Ye Yang might possess something extraordinary, and so he chose to follow him, intrigued by the mystery that shrouded the boy.
