Lord of Annihilation

After his body entered the portal completely, Lucius felt his mind get hit by a wave of energy. He immediately felt dizzy and his body was overcome with sluggishness.

'What is happening?', he thought to himself.

Right now, Lucius could neither see nor feel a single thing. His vision was pitch black and his perception seemed non-existent.

He tried concentrating on feeling his surrounding, but it was to no avail. In a place where the flow of time could not be perceived it seemed to stretch on forever.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Lucius thought to himself.

'Sigh, did it fail', he sighed.

'With not being able to even feel my own hands or rather my body, I couldn't even kill myself if I wanted to', he laughed deprecatingly.

Suddenly, after what seemed to feel like forever, a strong suction could be felt. It started to pull Lucius into it.

'Something's happening!', he alerted himself.

A bright light emerged in front of him and completely blinded him. Before Lucius could even think of what's happening, he was pulled into that vortex of suction.

-----------------------------

'Where am I?', Lucius thought to himself.

'?!!!', he abruptly realized that he could feel his surroundings once again.

'What happened back there? Was the ritual successful?', he thought to himself. 'And why do I feel weightless' he continued pondering.

Gathering his concentration and with the greatest of efforts, Lucius slowly opened his eyes.

He could see sunlight and could vaguely make out his surroundings.

'Why is everything moving backwar..', before Lucius could complete his thoughts, his body hit something.

"Sssss", he took a sharp intake of air and pain flooded his mind. He could feel his body twitching and shaking, every part feeling great pain.

He again opened his eyes slowly and could see three boys in front of him.Two of them were muscular with a large frame, they stood 1.9m tall and were walking towards him with large strides.

The other boy was slender and slightly shorter, standing at 1.75m tall.

The taller boys were darker in tone, while the shorter one was fair and handsome. From the way he walked one could feel his authority.

'Who are these people and why does my body hurt so much?', Lucius thought to himself.

'Calm your mind, Lucius. Recall what happened', he closed his eyes.

'The ritual was a success and I stepped into the portal. I or rather my consciousness was brought to a weird dimension where I was surrounded by endless darkness. I couldn't feel a thing and after an unknown amount of time, something started pulling me and I ended up here.'

'After I woke up here, I was sent flying in the air and hit, what seems to be a wall. Opening my eyes I see three people walking over with unkind intentions in their eyes.'

'It can be deduced that this body of mine got into a fight with these three and was completely overpowered. Also I was injured to such an extent!', thinking up to here, Lucius completely sobered up.

"Hey! We are talking to you bastard!.", a voice of a boy was heard. Judging from his tone he seemed to be impatient.

One of the bigger boys reached out his hand and grabbed Lucius by his head. He dragged Lucius up till their eyes were at the same level.

"Look at this trash, we are obviously talking to him yet he's ignoring us", said the boy, his voice filled with contempt.

"Also he clearly looked at us approaching him and yet he closed his eyes", said the other muscular boy.

"Are you still going to ignore us?", said the boy holding Lucius.

He sneered and suddenly punched in Lucius' stomach. Feeling the great amount of force being delivered onto his already feeble body, another bout of pain washed over his head.

Lucius currently felt weakness in every part of his body. His arms and legs felt powerless and his head was in great pain being held up by the boy.

Yet despite all this, Lucius' mind was completely calm. He was carefully assessing every inch of his body to understand his current situation. It seemed like all the dialogue and abuse was happening to another person!

"You still dare ignore us?!!", the boy was enraged and and dealt another series of punches onto him.

Still, Lucius did not react at all. It seemed as if he was unconscious.contemporary romance

"Stop." a new voice instructed.

The enraged boy who was about to continue hitting Lucius, suddenly calmed down and stopped.

'It seems as if the real person boss is going to talk.' Lucius thought to himself. His eyes were still closed and he wasn't fighting back at all.

The shorter and handsome boy walked in front of Lucius, who was still being held up by his head.

"Say, classmate Lucius, how long are you going to continue being stubborn." said this new voice.

"All I want is for you to handover that project you were working on and I will stop bothering you. Isn't it a very simple deal. I get what I want and you get to live in peace" the voice continued in a very soft convincing manner.

"Yeah! You better listen to what our boss is saying kid, if you want to live that is." said the other muscular guy.

"Shut up!", the boss interrupted.

"Don't you see that I am talking to, our friend Lucius over here about a very important thing" the boss said in a cold tone.

He was in a very bad mood after being interrupted by his subordinate.

"So-sorry! Boss Luther.", the muscular guy said in a terrified voice.

"Now then, what is your response, classmate Lucius?", Luther asked turning back to look at Lucius.

'He's after something that this body of mine has. It seems quite important too. Considering from his words, it seems that this isn't the first time this body has been subjected to abuse.' thought Lucius

By this time, Lucius had already finished assessing his body's condition.

'I have 3 broken ribs, my left arm is dislocated and my shoulders are bruised. My abdomen is in great pain and my right ankle is completely crushed.' Lucius thought with absolute calmness.

If an ordinary person were in his position, they would lose their sense of thought in the pain, let alone maintain the degree of rationality Lucius did.

'My combat effectiveness is at 43%', Lucius continued as he slowly opened his eyes.

His pitch black eyes stared right into the slender boy standing in front of him. There were no emotions of any kind in within those eyes.

Seeing those terrifying eyes, Luther felt his hair stand on his back. 'Now do I kill them or not?', Lucius thought to himself as he stared at Luther in the same manner as one stares at an insignificant object.

A faint killing intent was quietly brewing in his eyes.
