《The Demon Lord becomes the hero? DROPPED》Chapter 20.5: The chase
Advertisement
Author note: So… I wrote this part which was going to be added as chapter 21 but it wasn’t long enough and if I edited chapter 20, previous readers would miss out. So this is my first .5 chapter. Hope you enjoy. (btw it’s a tad short)

It only took a moment for the wolves to smell the blood of their fallen brother on me; so they gave chase immediately. Although I had a head start, they caught up almost instantly. Just my luck. Of course that wolf HAD to be with a pack. One of the wolves leapt at my legs, trying to wound me. Somehow, I managed to dodge. I had coincidentally looked back at that moment and got a bit lucky. Of course luck is only on my side when I am about to die. Dam this ironically extremely high luck stat. I would have thrown Greeny at them to buy some time but that would limit my options too much later on. I could only keep on running.
By now, every single wolf had caught up with me. Every few seconds a new one jumped up to attack, only for me to sidestep. I already had two deep gash marks on my back where a stray paw hat hit and torn through my leather chest piece.
A waterfall came into view on my right and the river picked up speed. Directly ahead of me was a cliff so I had two choices. One was to run to the left and into the jungle. The other was to cross the river and hope the wolves give up chase or get carried by the current and down the water fall. I doubted that I could keep running for much longer so I jumped into the river.
The wolves did not follow me. Although I could stand, the wolves would most likely not have a footing in the river. Instead they growled at me in unison. United, they looked like a giant, feral beast, cornering its prey and ready for anything.

You have been put under the status effect FEAR. All stats -30%
As soon as that message appeared, my legs gave out from underneath me. They no longer had the strength to resist the strong current. I tried to swim desperately to the far shore but could not make it.
I fell down the waterfall with a slime following soon after.

MVP
The old say it all started with the gods. They reigned over all the other living beings, without defiance: it was the natural course. Out of mercy, the gods decided to give some of their essence to humans, trying to have humanity achieve new heights. The emerging super-humans were the result; these new powers came with some sort of drawbacks: their bodies could not handle the god’s essence, which would be known as Essentia. This is the tale of Leo and Jax journey, two brothers looking to fulfill their destiny, following the Maddox Void Path (MVP).

The Twelve
In a world marred by the supernatural, Japan suffers from its own fair share of evil and demonic disasters, with generations of shamans known as Onmyoji protecting their homeland from these forces of evil. Capable of wielding magic and using spirits of their own, these shamans were not only skilled in battle, but also divination. However, they were unable to correctly predict Japan's loss in World War Two, and suffered the punishments that followed. Persecuted and torn apart by infighting, the Onmyoji reunited under the banner of the Tsuchimikado clan, descendants of Abe no Seimei, one of the greatest Onmyoji to ever live. The Onmyoji began to rebuild and to regrow. Ren is the sole heir to the Tsuchimikado family, but has been unable to practice Onmyodo ever since his birth, even though he possesses the greatest ability in the family. But when disaster befalls his family, Ren has nobody to turn to, and no idea how to use his powers. As he journeys to escape the same fate his family faced and attempts to learn how to use his powers, there is only one question on his mind; as the Tsuchimikado heir, how can he save the Onmyoji... from themselves? ---------------------------------------------- note from author: I'm writing this based loosely on the very real theories of Onmyodo, and so my writing may not be a truthful or accurate depiction of Onmyodo or other related areas, such as religion, for instance. That is why, while depicted in the real world, events that happen may seem unrealistic and it may be easier to imagine it as a parallel universe that is the same as ours, but with slight differences so that my possible errors will be easier to overlook. Sorry, and thanks!
