Civilization
215 Chapter 215 - Activate Rage (Kingston Perspective)
[ You are about to accept a contract with a demon. WARNING! This is the last chance for you to say no.]
[Yes/No]
"YES! Say, YES!" - Belial
"Wait, wait, wait. I'm not too sure anymore." - Kingston
"WHAT? WHY? I'LL GIVE YOU EVERYTHING! POWER IS JUST THE START!"" - Belial
"Well, it's just, you see. Uh…" - Kingston
"ACCEPT ME! LOOK! YOU ARE STILL ON A RAMPAGE OUTSIDE! ACCEPT ME AND WE CAN CONTROL THAT POWER AND MAKE IT INTO SOMETHING GREAT!" - Belial
"I… I'm going to regret this, aren't I?" - Kingston
Closing my eyes, I let out a deep sigh. I knew, deep down, that I wasn't a good person. I'm a coward. I'm greedy. Yet, was I the type of person to look down on a friend? Was I really relieved when I saw Ian fall? At this moment, I couldn't tell what was my own feelings and what was fake from the conversations and the visions Belial had shown me.
"Yes." - Kingston
[ A contract has been made with the demon - Belial.]
The world around me shatters like broken glass, flames seep in through the cracks engulfing everything while Belial laughs menacingly. The flames rush in, spinning around me like a tornado before flying inside my body through my mouth, eyes, and ears. Muffled screams, burning throat, skin peeling, hair singed, my mind goes blank.
Time passes so slowly, the feeling of my body burning to ashes from the inside out continues, and with no telling when it will stop. The echoing sounds of rushing flames and Belial's menacing laugh resound within my head imprinting themselves within my very soul. Just like that, my body disintegrates away, but my mind becomes active again, like a beating heart.
As if I am looking down from an eagle's perspective, I see my ashes shift closer together, pressing against one another. An ember sparks, lighting the ashes up and creating a small fire. However, the ashes still come closer and the fire burns brighter until a fiery orb is formed in the center.
The flames twist and spin around the orb as it sucks in the embers, flaring brighter and brighter. It burns and glows beating like a heart as ruby crystalline veins crack through the surface of the orb, creating a web of ruby crystals. Once the web of crystals forms, Belial looks directly at me, grinning from ear to ear.
"Time to go back." - Belial
With a blink, my perspective turns back to where my body once was before it got burnt. I look down to see the crystal veins and the orb beating slowly replacing my heart. Panic rushes through my head but no sound comes out, then all of a sudden the veins flash scarlet.
White bones form as muscles wrap around them entangling with the veins. Skin magically paints on top covering the flesh underneath as hair sprouts from under the skin. Each individual crease on my skin slowly forms, creating intricate fingerprints and palm textures.
Belial walks towards me grabbing my right hand tightly while grinning. His body flares once before slowly disintegrating. Shards of his body twirl around in a small tornado until it was just his hand before rushing into the back of my palm searing the area, creating a sigil in his name.
A jet black scar comprised of an inner and outer circle, with a small space between the two spelling out Belial with each letter at 12, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 o'clock respectively. Inside the inner circle, an obscure shape can be seen. My first thought was it was a weird upside-down jester hat, with numerous hanging ornaments at the bottom of the shape, hugging the L, I and A. 4 crosses can be seen on the sigil each and nearby 4 small circles can be seen. The sigil glows menacingly before Belial's voice rings inside my head.
"That is my Seal. It is also our contract." - Belial
Gulping down my saliva as I hear Belial talk, I notice the numerous system messages I was receiving. Some relate to Belial and others relate to new skills and changes to current skills.

The amount of information that was presented before me stuns me, making me take a small step back, but before I could react to the new skills and weapons, my eyes refocus, and I'm back in the tunnel. Surrounded in a small circle were agitated fishmen, gnarling and shrieking, taunting with their weapons in front of my eyes.
Repositioning myself, I glance around taking in the new environment, only to find David, Gibing, and the rest in a heated battle not too far behind me. A booming voice reaches my ears in the midst of combat.
"KINGSTON! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! KILL THEM BEFORE THE GHOSTS BUFF THEM AGAIN!" - Yor
"Kill…?" - Kingston
A small voice resounds inside my head, like an enticing succubus ready to lay prey on her victims. However, I know this voice all too well. The same voice which I had spoken to not too long ago.
"Yes, kill them all. You are no longer the weak human you once were. With my power, you will be able to even control that state of Rage. Wreak havoc on your foes. Kill them all." - Belial
Like a switch inside my brain, my hands grasp the Dark Spear. My breath slows, and my heart races. I feel the power pumping through my body, like electricity surging through the wires. A grin spread across my face as a happy thought cross my mind. The ghostly image of Belial, looms on the edge of my vision, looking at me in anticipation.
"Kill." - Kingston
[ Activate Rage. ]
