First Demon Prologue (Patreon)

Rebirth.

Second chance.

All these things are weebs greatest dreams. Trying to escape a boring world.

While all of this sounds great and crispy.

Not for me though… for the single reason that I was reborn into the past. Not distant past, if it was distant past I wouldn't be talking to myself.

Would be busy doing reforms and stuff. No time for monologues like that...sorta.

No, it's nothing more than 40 or so years to the past. Around 198X. Don't know the specific date since it's a waste of time.

But it's the time where cars look like rectangular boxes on wheels, and television is dominated by rom-com and sitcoms with those silly not funny laughs in the background.

Thankfully Stars Wars are out so at least some light in this dark world.

Still, there are worse things than shitty television and cars which look like boxes.

"Lucas dear, can you please look over the kids that they don't run off to?"

That's right. The moment I showed maturity beyond my years I was conscripted to work as a babysitter.

Probably one would wonder why the hell cynical dude like me would babysit?

Well, the answer is pretty simple, in orphanage one can't quite choose to say no.

Orphanage? Yeah. Apparently, my parents died from some stupid gas explosion from a neighbour's house.

The whole roof was blown away and I all have from that night is some weird scar on my chest.

Worse of all I don't remember anything before I was four.

"Okay."

Probably simply because one doesn't develop a personality or has no self-awareness yet.

"You should think so much. You not even ten yet!"

"Oh! You do care miss Williams!" I said with a bright smile.

"And you are too young to be sarcastic…" The pretty caretaker said.

"It's so sad that you have a boyfriend Miss Williams." I completely ignored her previous comment.

"As a said before you not even ten yet. First grow up then maybe I will think about it." The pretty caretaker said with an eye roll.

I do love how this girl tries to push it down to age. She doesn't realize but she could easily be a little sister with the amount of experiences there are between us too.

Still though being a child has its perks… well, more like a few perks in between.

"Now go and watch those brats. I still have some things to do before I can go home." Ms William motioned to get going.

And here it is! The real face. Don't worry I won't be telling to anyone.

"Sure thing." I shrugged at her before starting to walk towards the doors.

Once I started walking she did too, when she didn't see I looked back and looked at that delicious rear she has.

The one thing I like about the 1980 is that ladies do love those tight jeans.

After getting that eyeful of that beautiful rear, I continued to walk towards the backyard.

The beautiful Miss William surely is wasted on that...whatever she is dating. If it was me I would worship those thighs.

Anyway, seeing someone so young and beautiful working in an orphanage? Just damn.

That long light brown hair combed into a ponytail or that perfectly proportioned body. Charming face and pouty lips…

Oh… Well… let's watch these brats.

A sigh escaped from my lips as my gaze went to the playground.

Watching little kids playing… what an amazing second chance.

~~~~~~???~~~~~~

"""OH, mighty hear our call! Answer this call! And come before us!!!"""

A sharp wind blew through the attic almost blowing the candles out.

"Did you see that!?"

"Yeah… For second I felt for that Rose!" One of the teenage girls said with a pissed tone.

She looked around the 'so called' summoning circle. They wanted to see what it's so great about the occult.

The preparations were all cool and even exciting but saying the chant was quite embarrassing.

And obviously...there was nothing there!

"I thought you closed the windows, Clair?" The other teenage girl with glasses said as she remembered how her friend closed all the windows.

"Duh! It's Autumn! You know how cold it gets midnight!?" The girl said with rolled eyes and borderline huff! She ain't stupid!

"Then... where did the wind come from?" Rose said with a slightly nervous tone.

The three girls looked at the circle and the drawings on the circle.

There was nothing there.

"Rose can you stop being so jumpy! It's contagious you know!?" Clair said with a shiver.

"I just can't help it! That wind just spooked me out!" The girl said with an apologetic tone.

*Sigh*

"Let's just clear this up and go sleep. Tomorrow we still have school." The girl with glasses said the cursed the word which made her two friends cringe.

"Can you not remind it? I still have that chemistry test coming up." Clair said that as she nearly started pulling out her hair.

"...why did you even decide to join this if you have a test tomorrow!?" Rose asked with disbelief how careless is her friend!?

"Cuz I was bored!" Clair said that e raised her hands into the air. Before deciding to start cleaning up the circle.

But…

The moment she cleaned one of the main lines... she collapsed on the ground.

""CLAIR""

The other two girls quickly went to check on their friend but both of them collapsed the very next moment as well.

…

…

…

None of these girls saw pair of translucent glowing Plantinum coloured eyes.

A demon was birthed when the three girls poured their emotions into the summoning circle.

Since all three girls poured random emotions into the circle the demon's sin was practically randomised.

What came on top was Pride.

The pride demon walked out of the circle. A towering figure of three metres looked around. With a head of goat, and body of extremely refined muscular man and for legs or pair hooves.

The being of pure Sin with barely any ego to speak of is acting on pure instinct and its instinct is telling too…

Feed.

The Pride Demon scanned the whole building with a mere glance. Before finding the highest concentration of Pride and a perfect host.

As being an existence of spiritual origin Pride Demon doesn't require to use something mundane like… Doors…

Instead, it turned into a Platinum cloud of energy and moved through the floor like it wasn't there in the first place.

Moments later the Pride Demon appeared in a room and looked at the sleeping form of a boy.

"Seiba… I can't eat anymore~~~ you want some?~~~" The boy mumbled something with drool running down from the corner of his lip.

~~~

"Where the fuck I am? Was I isekai'ed this time?" I said that as I looked up. Last time I checked I was in my bed.

Now I opened my eyes and it's a freaking white sky!?

I slowly got up from the floor? It's white and just flat floor it should be uncomfortable laying on such a flat ground... yet, it's not uncomfortable or comfortable it's just there.

My gaze scanned the surroundings and it was pure white expanse until I saw something.

It was a black-robed man with a stick in his hand fighting a towering creature that looked like something ripped from a Fantasy setting!

"Is that a freaking demon!!! Fuck!?" I said with utter horror.

My gaze quickly went to the guy this demon thing was fighting.

And… it looked like Old man Tom himself!

…

…

…

"Wait a second! Tom...my scar… 1980… " My brain short-circuited for a second as I realised what was going on!

"Fuck… this place than should be my head and these two things are fighting inside my head!" A cold shiver went down my spine when I realised this!

"Damn this! What can I do against someone like a Dark Lord and a freaking Demon! Demons are not even a thing in Potterverse!" I thought out loud as I furiously started to think.

Eventually, my mind went towards Platinum energy, It's like it's burning… or even fire looking. I had never seen anything like that before! And... it was on the other side of this white expanse.

Between this fire is the so-called duel between Demon and Dark Lord.

Well more like Demon is trying to grab Tom and Tom is furiously sending spells at the Demonic existence.

But, the goat-headed thing simply ignores any spells the Snakeface is sending its way.

"...You know what…. I don't care! this is beyond my league. But that Platinum fire looks like it does something? Well, whatever... either way, I am dead if one of those win their duel." Making up my mind I decided that this was the only chance I can do something.

So, I started running forward, making sure to stay away from their gaze.

Not that there was a chance to hide somewhere as this was a strait plane without any obstructions I would stand out like a sore thumb here.

Before long the Goat faced demon was able to grab Tom. That moment an inhuman screech escaped from the black-cloaked Dark Lord.

Moments later the dark Lord turned into black like mist which entered the goat face demon's body.

It looked like it has absorbed it!

Once the Demon thing absorbed the Dark Lord's soul and just… continued to stand there.

I didn't want to figure out why the thing was standing. Instead, I was quickly approaching the Platinum fire.

"Wait! This is my head!" I realised something I should have realised long ago! This is my head! No one should have supremacy here apart from me!

That moment the demon instantly moved its head and found me.

But, same time I appeared in front of this weird looking fire.

There was not much time for thinking it's either I do something with this flame or get consumed by the demon same way old man Tom got consumed.

So my hand rushed forward towards fire. I think being burned is… probably better than getting eaten by a freaking demon!!!

The moment my hand touched the Platinum fire, it was searing hot, so hot that I wanted to pull back but the hell with this! Maybe if the thing won't going to attack me if I am fully in this fire!

And so I pushed forward fully entering this fire.

For a second I felt the hand of this monstrosity on my back for a very brief moment before it just let me go.

The feeling inside the fire was as if I was boiling. It was extremely hot. But not painful. It was weird. Since I was not burning and that thing stopped trying to grab me I turned around to look at the creature maybe it was gone...

"What... the… hell!"  My eyes widened as what I was crazy!

The thing was melting! Slowly its arm came off its body and dropped to the ground. Followed by its goat head, before long the whole thing dropped on the white ground.

"What is going on!?" I said with disbelief, my brain could not understand this development! Is it in some way related to the platinum fire!?

Slowly the whole demon simply evaporated, the second it was gone my whole body exploded with pain. It's like something started to invade me from all directions.

As if thousands of needles poking every single piece of my body.

*Gasp*

With a sharp breath, I opened my eyes and saw the familiar ceiling of my room.

I quickly got up into a sitting position. Looking around. There was nothing there!

"The fuck...was that!?" I said to myself trying to understand what did I dreamed.

"Hmm?"

My hand went to my chest. It was wet.

I moved my head down and checked what it was.

"Strange… how come I can see clearly in darkness? And what the hell is that thing?" I checked my chest and it was some sort of black liquid goo coming out of my scar.

I quickly wiped it off and the scar looked healed, almost non-existent!

"Fuck… I truly was a Horcrux! This is nuts!" It finally hit me that this was not in fact a dream and that I was nearly eaten by a goddam goat faced demon!
