The demon contract clutched in my hand emitted a black light.
Pale souls emerged from the thousand corpses around me and were sucked into the contract.
The black light pouring from the contract grew even stronger.
A red demon emerged from within the black light.
A demon with a red body burst forth. It had seven horns on its head, eyes with black sclera and blood-red pupils, red wings folded on its back, and legs resembling those of a goat.
"...An unexpected big shot has shown up."
Mekin.
The Demon King of Destruction and Fifth Legion Commander.
"Heh heh. The filthy stench of evil lured me in."
Mekin looked around. A thick smile crept across his lips, as if he liked the auditorium filled with blood and corpses.
"Enough chit-chat. Let's get on with the contract."
Mekin's blood-red eyes fixed on me. He stared intently before furrowing his brow.
"You don't seem to be bluffing... Keeping your sanity with me right in front of you? Impressive. I like you. I'll agree to the contract. What do you desire?"
"Power. What else would I want from you?"
"Heh heh... What will you offer in exchange for that power?"
"What do you want?"
The price could be many things. My life, becoming his subordinate, or giving him a special item. The problem was that the items I had were worthless junk to a Demon King like Mekin.
"I like you. After you die, become my subordinate. I'll guarantee you at least the rank of Baron."
"......That's awfully generous."
"Keh heh heh. The demons with baronies can't even meet my gaze. They're trash inferior to a human like you. Shall we make the contract?"
"Yes."
"Hahaha! I eagerly await the day you become a demon!"
Mekin was sucked into the contract. It turned red and seeped into my chest.
"Grrgh...!"
It felt like a fireball was blazing inside my body.
Thud!
I collapsed to the floor, sweating coldly as I endured the pain. About a minute later, the heat faded.
"......"
My jaw dropped.
All my stats had skyrocketed. This put me on par with even S-rank heroes.
The Authority of Destruction (SS) ignored all defenses. In game terms, it dealt fixed damage bypassing defense. However, using it consumed massive mana.
Destruction destroyed ranked items to temporarily boost stats or recover the body.
"Incheon Massacre Demon! Sung Yu-jin! For the sake of the world, I will execute you!"
The auditorium doors flew open, and thirteen heroes entered. All were at least A-rank or higher.
In the past, I would've immediately pulled a spatial transfer scroll from my inventory and fled. But not now.
My eyes locked on one woman. An elf with long ears.
"You bitch. Nice body."
I activated my new Destruction skill. The target was the handkerchief in my pants pocket—an item that auto-cleaned when soiled and summoned one wraith to command.
Destruction (S)
Wraith Handkerchief (B+) destroyed.
Strength and Stamina +1 rank for 35 seconds.
I felt the handkerchief in my pocket turn to dust and vanish.
Crackle.
Lightning sparked along the dagger in my hand. Activating Authority of Destruction turned the blue lightning an ominous dark red. The dark red bolts wrapped around my body.
I became lightning and charged at the heroes.
8 seconds.
That was how long it took to slaughter twelve heroes and pin the elf bitch to the floor.
"M-Monster...!"
The blonde elf muttered in terror.
"Heh heh heh."
I laughed as I tore her clothes off. Her skin was soft like it was slathered in fresh milk, her firm breasts plump and perky.
"Kyaaaaah!"
"You bitch. Let's taste some elf pussy!"
???
Less than a year later, I became an SSS-rank villain.
'No SSS-rank heroes even exist, yet here I am, the first villain to hit SSS-rank. Feels fucking great!'
My stats had risen even higher. I'd stolen and consumed elixirs, and item effects had strengthened me further.
And today, I was racing toward a concert hall in Seoul.
C-rank hero and famous singer Clara Fairred was performing. She was one of the playable characters in the original game, boasting exceptional beauty.
'I thought the Maruhan Academy in Korea shut down because of me, so no chance to fuck her... But an opportunity like this arises!'
I activated Outsider to turn invisible and passed through the concert hall wall into the venue.
"Hm?"
The show should've been underway, but Clara wasn't on stage, and only a few hundred spectators filled seats meant for over ten thousand.
"You've arrived, Massacre Demon."
The space warped.
The seated auditorium turned into a vast plain.
'Barrier?! It was a trap!'
I immediately pulled out a spatial transfer scroll. Without hesitation, I channeled power into it.
Sizzle.
But I was still in the plain.
"Traits, skills, magic... A spatial transfer completely different from conventional methods. Did you think it would work forever?"
Stepping forward confidently was a blond young man.
Justin Held. Hero Association Chairman and SS-rank hero.
And that wasn't all.
Hundreds of heroes surrounding me were all A-rank or higher. Over fifteen SS-rank heroes were visible right away.
"...You're really going all out. Not embarrassed to gather this many heroes just to kill me?"
My face hardened. No chance of victory. With spatial transfer sealed, no escape. Only death remained.
"Heroes or villains, there's a line. You crossed it. No shame in contracting with a Demon King, massacring over 30 million people. In America, they're even talking nukes to kill you. For world peace, for humanity's safety—die here."
The heroes all directed killing intent at me. Surrender meant certain death.
"Something's been bugging me. Aren't those guys behind me villains? Lots of familiar faces."
Callis.
The evil organization I belonged to, plus all notable villains, had gathered.
And Callis's boss, a middle-aged man, glared at me with murderous eyes.
"Long time no see, Boss. Here to help me...? Doesn't look like it."
"Sung Yu-jin. I heard you killed my daughter."
"Misunderstanding. Never killed her."
"You gonna deny it? One of my men saw you kidnap her."
"I said I didn't kill her. She suicided. I raped her a few times, and she said it was humiliating, so she stabbed a dagger into her own throat."
"Sung Yu-jin!!!!"
"The pussy of your Ju-seong-a back then was so tight and chewy... Still haunts me. Boss, thinking of having another daughter?"
"I'll kill you!!!!"
A massive snake lunged at me.
'Instant.'
My thought speed accelerated.
I pondered here. End Playful Life now and return to reality with what I'd gained, or fight on with the items.
'...My pride won't let me just die like this. And maybe, just maybe. No odds, but if I go all-in...'
The Association had brought most of its forces here. Villains gathered via some deal. Over half the world's power was here. If I won, I'd rule this world.
'Fight! For the beauties I haven't fucked yet!'
Destruction (S)
Ugly Hide (A+) destroyed.
Golden Compass (S) destroyed.
Shadow Sword (A) destroyed.
All stats +3 ranks for 40 seconds.
I'd collected over a hundred items in this world. Originally more, but frequent Destruction use left only this many.
'If I use all 100... I have a shot!'
Rumble!
Dark red lightning crashed everywhere.
Heroes and villains charged with all their might to kill me. Their rage and hatred broke my arms and legs, tore at my neck.
Destruction (S)
Thor’s Cloak (S+) destroyed.
HP and MP restored.
I gritted my teeth and swung my greatsword. Lightning imbued with Authority of Destruction swept forward, mowing down over ten heroes. But an invisible sword severed my lower body in payback.
A lightning spear pierced my shoulder, a crimson phoenix burned my body. I ignored the pain. Losing my mind to agony was the real danger. Thankfully, my absolute sanity prevented that.
Destruction (S)
Seven Branches Map (S) destroyed.
Ambrosia (SS) destroyed.
HP and MP restored.
All status effects cleared.
I fought like a madman. When only ten items remained, 80% of the enemies were dead by my hand. They were exhausted. But I could recover HP and MP with items. Momentum shifted to me.
"Authority of Destruction! If only that power didn't exist!"
The Chairman shouted in frustration and rage. Destruction's Authority nullified most tank heroes. But to me, the Destruction skill was the real cheat.
'Soon, I'll loot all your dead asses clean! Gotta recoup my losses!'
I relentlessly dropped dark red bolts on the enemies.
Destruction (S)
Deus's Bag (A+) destroyed.
MP restored.
Empty MP filled instantly. Felt like using cheat keys.
-This seems far enough.
Suddenly, Demon King Mekin's voice echoed.
"What?"
Something in my chest vanished.
I felt my stats drop. Couldn't handle even one S-rank hero now.
-Leave you be, and you'd never die even in 100 years. So die here. Prepared a barony for you. Heh heh heh.
"Mekin! You fucking bastard! Backstabbing me?!"
-Remember, backstabbing is a demon's virtue. Heh heh heh.
"You think I'll just take this lying down?! Mekin!!"
-Hahahahaha!
Distracted by Mekin for a moment, Callis's boss Jushinman closed in. Armless, he opened his mouth and bit my shoulder. The bitten flesh necrotized black.
"I... said I'd kill you!"
"......!!"
Rumble!
Then, from afar, a spear from the once-strongest hero flew with thunderous roar, piercing my heart.
-Finally dead. Contract broken, but my power lingers in your body. Come, Sung Yu-jin. Your place in the Demon Realm is ready... Gah?! Why isn't your soul budging!
I used Complete Recovery. Grabbed Jushinman's head with both hands, sparked lightning, and scorched his brain. His body crumpled to the ground.
"Annoying! Get out!"
I drew the dagger from my waist. Fior's Dagger (A). Pathetic compared to my other gear, but the only weapon left.
"Damn! If I'm dying anyway, take one more with me...!"
Slash!
Chairman Justin's golden sword flew and severed my neck.
[You have died.]
[Ending Playful Life.]
???
Back in reality, I blinked and yelled.
"Fuck!"
"Mekin! You dog! I won't rest till I kill that bastard or die of rage! Ruining my perfect meal?!"
Couldn't end it like this.
Fuming, I used the Playful Life Reset Ticket.
"Initialize!"
Mostly auto-progress, so few relationships built. Resetting let me rebuild them for points.
