The Rise Of Calamity

[Everything within a 5-mile radius is fucked]

'What the fuck? Why the fuck would I do any of that? Why would I kill humans?'

[Are you growing more stupid by the second or something? THINK DUMBA*S! THINK!]

'Oh yeah, I didn't really like the humans anyway' I chuckled lightly while rubbing the back of my neck, yet for some reason, bloodlust laced with battle aura continued to come out of me, as if it was simply radiating off me like it was an instinctual thing that I would do when put into a situation like this.

[Olivia and June will be here at any second now. By the time they arrive, you should be ready to shoot off in any direction, yet I do recommend you go towards the north.]

'Isn't that where the beasts wen-'

[Don't think about it much. According to my calculations, the two should be here in 30 seconds, so just calm down until they come]

*Sigh*

After sighing, I had simply crossed my arms, yet my whole body was feeling restless.

My feet were constantly tapping onto the floor while my finger was tapping my other arm, which was possible because I had crossed them.

After about 10 seconds, I began to walk around and in circles, as if I was trying to find something non-boring to do, yet due to my mind's speed being naturally 5 times faster than the average human's mind, 30 seconds felt more like 2 and a half minutes.

'Oh for fucks sakes! I can just speed up my thinking back to normal'

After finally speeding up my thinking, 30 seconds were up, and yet, I still could not see June or Olivia.

'Where the fuck are they?!'

[I said they would get to the camp by then, not this specific place. Plus, I was only estimating. Sorry, I am the only one who can do the math properly.]

'Oh fuck you'

[F*ck you too motherf*cker]

'Son of a fuckin-'

"Pan?" A voice rang out from the sky, causing me to look up and finally see the person I wanted to see most.

"OH MY LORD! FINALLY! JESUS CHRIST WHY THE FUCK DID YOU TAKE SO LONG!" I roared in both joy and rage, something that for some reason seemed a little too possible to be true. The only thing I could hope at this point was the hope that all this was a dream that I would wake up from without anyone knowing what the fuck I dreamed of.

"Pan?" Olivia seemed a little more confused than before while June looked as uncaring as ever.

It was not a surprise that she liked Olivia more than me, the true surprise was to find out that she didn't hate me but instead, was simply indifferent to my existence, something no one who knew me could ever do yet she had achieved it within a few months.

"Alright. I'm going to say a few words and leave. I want you to take care of my grandma while I am gone while also making sure that no one inside the tent leaves thee fucking tent! Is that understood?" I looked at Olivia who I had already given the tag of 'Leader' to instead of June

[Petty]

'Of course, it's fucking petty. Literally, everything I do reeks of pettiness. Sometimes I just do shit so I can watch the other guy suffer, cuz you know, it's kinda fun watching the other guy suffer... Oh god, my cravings for souls are increasing'

"Where are you going?" June, even though she was mad, forced herself to ask the question she already knew Olivia was going to ask.

"Oh my GOD, SHUT THE FUCK UP JUNE! EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND DO IS CANCEROUS! LIKE, SHUT THE FUCK UP! WHY THE FUCK DO YOU SPEAK!? WHY HAVEN'T YOU ENDED IT ALL?! WHY HAVEN'T YOU JUST CHOSEN TO SHOOT, AND BOOM! DEAD!" I shouted back in a crazy fit

"Are you okay, pan?" She asked me as people began to gather causing me to put my mask on properly while putting down the illusion of one I had put up for those who were weak-minded.

Looking around, I simply lost my motivation to reply to June, allowing me to shoot myself into the sky by using a fire charge under my feet. When I finally reached the sky, however, I made myself almost weightless before enveloping me in air magic and shooting myself through the clouds and towards where the beasts went.

Little did I know that the decision I had just made was one of the most continent-shaking decisions I would make for at least 3 years.

***

In the center of a kingdom within the north stood a castle towering over every other palace, building, or house within the horizon. It was a luxurious place that held one of the most powerful people humanity could offer, or at least that is what the propaganda and Emperor wanted everyone to believe.

Honestly, there were at least 50 beings in that very kingdom that could have killed him before t-bagging on his corpse.

*Knock knock*

"Yes?" A raspy voice rang out from within the king's courtyard, making the man outside speak

"There is an emergency your majesty!" The soldier that had been stationed outside the king's room spoke out while looking at a crystal with countless words constantly embedding themselves into it before images flashed within it, just to disappear in the next moment with even kore text appearing right after.

"What is the emergency you dare bring up while I am enjoying my time with my wife?!" The king sounded outraged, causing mana fluctuations to become more violent within the room. However, before the mana fluctuations could reach the outside, a soothing voice echoed within the room, making all of the mana fluctuations dissipate as if they were never released.

Following an audible sigh, the sound of footsteps got closer and closer to the door before finally, a man wearing nothing but a robe walked out, quickly shutting the door behind the scene of multiple naked women laying on a bed, some twitching while others flushed to the core.

'Didn't he mean wives?!' The soldier could not help but feel a little jealous, but after seeing the king's eyes filled with the wrath of his pleasurable times being disturbed, he swallowed his envy and simply stated-

"Your majesty... There has been a disturbance within the east..."

"Why does that matter? I am not even a ruler of any land in the west. Did you really call me out for only this!?" The king began to tap his foot on the ground while gnashing his teeth.

"W-well, your majesty, it had become apparent to us that the beast tide that had been attacking a city in the west is now coming towards us... And even though it was considered a C rank beast tide a few days ago, it had come early, followed with a much stronger force than expected, catapulting it into the B rank" The man barely let out before trying to retreat a step back.

"WHAT!" The king roared before grabbing the man by the collar and lifting him off the floor.

"Y-Y-Y-Your majesty! If we act quickly, we might be able to redirect the tide towards another kingdom" The man cried out in a last-ditch attempt to save his life.
