《Time of Devil》Chapter 2 : Skill
Advertisement
I also had thought one day I would work hard and aim to become a governor but I didn’t know that was just a dream.
In these 2 years my life has been very harsh.
All I thought was I would get stronger and someday I will make everyone proud and keep working hard until all of my stats became 3 digits from 6 digits.
I got abandoned.
I didn’t know why I am the only one in the world that can’t get stronger. I kept regretting that the “Maxim” occurred.
I couldn’t get into any school.
Nobody wanted to befriend me.
After all these things happening to me I tried to stay focused and calm.
Everywhere I went I got bullied.
They said “ This is not a place for weak kid like you to roam around”
I went around different places where no one would know me but due to the earth being grown so much that even Vatican city was bigger than the previous earth.
I couldn't even walk a few miles.
Months passed by
I had no money left nor food.
I wanted to go hunt but I would die even from the rabbits if there were 2 of them.
As I had read many books before I had known how to make and use a few traps.
I made a box filled with spikes and some bait and waited for some rabbits to pass by.
Two of the rabbits went inside.
I thought of activating the trap but I hadn't eaten in a few days so I became greedier.
Two of them ate most of the bait but luckily I got the third one inside.
I activated the trap and killed them.
I took them out and ate them.
Since I had nowhere to go I asked myself “ what did i do to deserve this ? “

I had such a good life before
-A family
-Good grades
I was even one of the best students in my school
Why did the world suddenly changed
Even if it changed why was I the one that was this unlucky
WHYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!???
I lived around a month hunting using traps and eating , regretting and sleeping.
I saw someone coming into the forest one day. He had nice stats and it seemed like he even knew how to use magic.
He killed all the rabbits and took them right before my eyes.
I couldn't even talk to him. All I did was look at him taking away my only means of food.
I liked being in that forest because I would have been alone. Far away from everyone.
I was sick of hearing them.
(few days passed by )
I haven't eaten in a few days.
I heard another group of people in the forest.
They had came to train themselves.
TRAIN
For some reason I ran away from there as fast as I could.
Even I didn't know why I felt such disappointment seeing them train and become happy about their stats going up.
I knew if I train once more my stats would end up becoming one digit.
Then I got a thought “ what would happen even if they become one digit”
“I was the weakest before this and I will be the weakest after this.
Nothing will change
I tried to train.
My stats went down the moment I tried to gather the mana.
Not just magic but the overall stats went down
I still continued
After 2 days of continuous training my stats became :
*Name:Akuma*
*Age: 15*
*Stats*
Strength:1 Speed:1
Magic:1 Stamina:1
Luck : 0 Endurance:1
Intelligence: ??? Creativity:???
*Skills*
Passive : “??????”
Active:”??????”
I got a hint of something.

My luck stats was increasing when it was in minus value before but it stopped on 0
I laughed at myself
Who would even have as bad luck as me.
I thought of stopping but i thought what would happen if i make it in minus value
Will it decrease everytime i walk?
Will it decrease everytime i try to gather mana?
I became curious
I trained for 2 more days with only my mana but nothing changed
I thought of doing training for every stats .
Then on the third day my system broke.
It didn’t show itself even when I wanted to.
I thought I became a normal person.
Then i get the notification
*ping*

I was shocked.
My stats window became weirder and it looked different from usual.
It began to glitch.
*Name:Akuma*
*Age: 15*
*Stats*
Strength:1 Speed:1
Magic:1 Stamina:1
Luck : 1 Endurance:1
Intelligence: ??? Creativity:???
*Skills*
Passive : “Time of death”
Active:”Devil’s domain”
*ping*
( inventory unlocked )
( System 0 unlocked )
I didn't understand what system 0 meant.
I thought it was the reason why my stats window was looking different
But I didn't pay much attention to it because of the skills I got.
I didn’t knew how to activate “Devil’s Domain”
I had watched many anime before so I tried replicating some of them but it didn't work.
Then I tried doing hand signs.
Still nothing worked.
I said aloud “ Akuma no ryōiki” ( translated “Devil's domain” into japanese)
”
And I thought of making 1 second for 10 years.
It got activated
The moment I could realize I activated the skill
I was on the ground.
I couldn’t stand up nor sit.
Even with this I was feeling no pain.
I couldn’t see my stats window.
I tried to stand up but the pressure was so high that if I got exhausted my lungs would explode.
I spent 5 months trying to stand up in that domain.
But I couldn’t stand up.
I made deactivated Devil’s domain
And I was back in the forest.
Second later
My body felt like it was gonna explode.
I felt so much pain.
I thought it would be better to die rather than experience this pain.
It was over but I couldn't even properly walk for few hours due to that experience.
Nothing had happened to my body,
I tried to figure out why I was feeling so much pain.
I opened the stats window.
Then I figured it out.
It could help me to become stronger massively but the drawbacks are also there.
I wondered what would happen next time I tried to read in that domain.
I got shocked when I figured out that all of my stats went up.
*Name:Akuma*
*Age: 15*
*Stats*
Strength:302 Speed: 295
Magic:290 Stamina:300
Luck : 1 Endurance:500
Intelligence: ??? Creativity:???
*Skills*
Passive : “Time of death”
Active:”Devil’s domain”
