[You Will Restart the Second Death Trial]
"What the fuck?"
Raith opened his eyes to a familiar scenery as he had just closed them absent-mindedly after the fulfilling meal.
"Ah no!!"
He cried out, gripping his head and sinking to his knee.
He had forgotten to avoid sleeping thanks to the belly-washing meal had. He absolutely forgot that the abyss would come for him any time he dares to see sleep and has not passed the trial.
He looked up at the clear skies, the skies were still dark as usual but this time ridden of clouds and what lay beneath him was clear. There was a change in the atmosphere. before it is cold but right now was sweating profusely and slowly turned back to see where the hot air blowing on his back was coming from.
He fluttered backward as he saw the rumbling and squirming of the blazing lava that slowly rose in between the mountain.
Slowly and slowly with gladness rose to the mountain level.
Meanwhile...
Volmak stood frozen as the same thing that had happened before repeated itself. But this time it was stronger than before.
Before he was the one that willingly kneeled to the abyss. He was cleaning up the table outside while Raith staggered inside and fell to the bed to sleep and moments later the demonic and ominous presence returned, stronger than it was before.
Before it was a little smoke, but this time a horde of darkness swiveled around the corner where his bed is supposed to be.
Its ubiety screaming into his senses and forcing him to a state of total submission both in body and in mind.
His heavy knees slammed against the ground, smashing into it–Volmak supported himself from a total fall with his hands but even his hands shivered as they held him up in resistance to this unknown force.
His mind went numb seeming like he could find a thousand ways to escape this situation but not venturing into one.
'...it's a good thing L-Lord Absalom lefttt'
Raith didn't need an explanation of what a volcano means, yes, he was on top of a volcano right now and it was still the same trial.
[Survive The Fall]
He glared at the volcano's blazing lava that illuminated a reflection of the fire on his face and continued to swell.
'What am I going to do?"
His mind beckoned him.
Raith couldn't climb down the mountain, the volcano would erupt and catch up to him before he reaches halfway plus climbing down the mountain wasn't the way to pass the test.
He needed to jump knowing that he would die if he should.
'Or should I climb down and enjoy a few more meals with Old man Volmak before finally coming back here to die...'
He gritted his teeth and faced the edge of the volcano mountain looking down, the base of the mountain was so far that it couldn't be seen.
'It's definitely taller than before.'
[The mountain continued to grow in your absence]
"What? Even in my absence?"
Raith was void of words to describe this evil nature.
"Telling me to die right off the bat... does the abyss have some plan for me or it wants to use my dead body to come back to life. Old man Volmak did mention that the abyss can be in a person's body."
"Am I just a pawn for its plan?"
Raith wondered aloud as he stared down at the mountain base.
Then unwanted memories of the horrible three years he spent at home after becoming a hero surged into his brain breeding a long-forgotten grudge and rage right from inside his belly. His brows furrowed together as the pearl of tear that gathered beneath his eyes was carried away by the hot wind of the volcano that blew from the back warning Raith of the danger ahead.
"I have come so far, I can't back down now..."
He said as he stared down the mountain.
"And I won't let you command me around with your measly trials. If you need me, then you better begin to respect my desires."
Raith said with a face of bravery that matched his face, the bangs of his hair fluttered in the wind as he turned to the volcano glaring at it with determined eyes that were ready and set for their death.
"Bye Bye Bitch"
He gallantly walked and jumped into the volcano diving deep down into it.
