Era of Players: Death God

In a state of sheer terror, the Jammer sought refuge behind a small bunker, desperately hoping to remain unnoticed by the monstrous figure before him. However, even this small glimmer of hope was swiftly extinguished as the mature Lilith locked her piercing gaze upon him.

"Shit!"

With a commanding gesture, the mature Lilith beckoned with her hands, causing the fabric of space to contort behind the Jammer. In a sudden and violent twist, he was forcefully expelled from his hiding place, only to realize with a jolt of dread that his jamming abilities were rendered useless against this formidable creature.

Helpless and vulnerable, he was then presented before the mature Lilith, who peered down at him, her smile dripping with satisfaction. As a surge of terror coursed through his veins, the Jammer's body convulsed uncontrollably, eliciting a cascade of goosebumps.

"Let's see, how shall I torment you?" The mature Lilith mused, her face contorted in contemplation. With a swift motion, she tapped her left hand onto her right, as if sealing a twisted decision.

"Ah, I have an idea! Let's subject you to a myriad of agonies," she declared, her smile turning saccharine but oozing with a sinister aura that sent shivers down the Jammer's spine.

With a mere flick of her hand, the Jammer was whisked away to a realm where a myriad of agonizing experiences awaited him.

A sharp pain plagued both of his knees, forcing them to constantly shift the Jammer's body weight from one side to the other in the desperate hope of finding some temporary relief. The pain became disorienting and it started to affect his judgment, but despite this or perhaps due to this he still continued onward.

He paused for a moment and contemplated every answer to this pain, weighing each option and trying to find the best one.

Tried as he might it seemed impossible to relax completely. The Jammer was unable to block out the pain entirely.

The next thing the Jammer knew was he was sent somewhere else, experiencing a new pain.

Blood seeped from the Jammer's wound and sweat dripped down their forehead. He felt a dull pain, but it was surely numbed by the adrenaline pumping through his veins. His mind raced, half panicked half determined. There must be an answer to this pain, there must be a way to make it stop. For a moment they focused on the pain, honing in on every sensation.

Where it came from, how badly it hurt and how badly they wanted it to stop.

His entire body was trembling now. Weak and exhausted it costed him all his remaining strength to not become crazy.

With another flick of the mature Lilith fingers, he was sent into a wood this time.

A flicker in the depths, a cracking of wood, and suddenly he was confronted with a foul entity of blood and fury. Two bleak eyes stare at him with a staggering energy, and another flicker rushes from its crooked mouth in unfathomable agony.

Dark tendrils adorns its blubbery head, which itself is scarred all over. Toxic smog escapes the creature's slim nostrils set within a bony nose.

Its blubbery head sits atop a lofty, skeletal body. Scars cover nearly every inch of it, perhaps a remnant of even stranger times.

The creature dashes forward, its two legs easily carry its shadowy body with a harrowing energy.

A pair of stunted wings unfurl to their full extent, revealing shadowy bones and engulfing flames that reach skyward, amplifying the creature's intimidating presence. Its gaze fixates on the Jammer, contorting its face into a horrifying grimace. Without warning, the demon springs into action, relentlessly pursuing the fleeing Jammer.

The demon's agile movements defy its grotesque appearance as it effortlessly maneuvers through the air, closing the distance between itself and the Jammer with alarming speed. Its wings beat with a thunderous roar, creating gusts of wind that whip through the surrounding area, further heightening the sense of impending danger.

As the demon draws closer, the flames surrounding its wings grow brighter and hotter, casting an eerie glow that casts long, dancing shadows on the ground below. The intense heat emanating from the flames causes the air to shimmer and distort, warping the very fabric of reality around the creature.

With every step the Jammer takes, the demon's relentless pursuit intensifies. Its eyes glow with an unholy light, fixated on its prey with an unyielding determination. The demon's grimace twists into a sadistic smile, revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth that glisten in the fiery light.

The Jammer's heart pounds in their chest as they struggle to outpace the relentless demon. Fear courses through their veins, fueling their desperate attempts to escape. But no matter how fast they run or how many twists and turns they take, the demon remains hot on their heels, its presence an ever-present threat.

The chase continues, the demon's ominous presence casting a shadow over the Jammer's every move. The creature's relentless pursuit seems to defy all logic and reason, as if driven by a malevolent force beyond comprehension.

He endured numerous afflictions, the torment became unbearable, and ultimately, the Jammer made the difficult decision to surrender.

''My body is broken, I can feel it. Weak, crushed and beyond repair. Surely this is the end, surely there's no coming back from this. No, it can't be, it musn't be.

At least I'm lying comfortably. And it'll be over soon, I just have to lay here and wait for the end. It'll be over soon, I'm sure of it.

There must be something I can do. Anything. I want to live, I need to live. Come on, come on, I can't die like this. How can I get out of this mess? There must be a way out, there has to be.

I can't think straight anymore, everything's becoming a blur. I should lay down, let the blood flow back to my brain. Yes, I will lay down. This'll help me figure out how to make it out or at the very least it'll save my energy until somebody finds me. Surely somebody will find me soon.

This is it, isn't it? I'm going to die, I know it now. Oh god, I'm going to die right here, all alone. I don't want to die, I don't want to die. There's too much.. There's too many people..

I don't want to die.

Everything is hazy, I can't make sense of it all. I feel light-headed, but my head's too heavy to lift. The irony. This is not the time. I must close my eyes, I can't take this.

I'm sorry.''

The Jammer's death was a slow, agonizing affair. Each breath seemed to echo his regret. Finally, after an eternity of suffering, he breathed his last. His body was reduced to ash not to be used later for reading the dead body.

The Jester watched attentively, having grown apathetic to it all, finally surrendering.

In a sudden turn of events, the mature Lilith materialized before the Jester, gently placing her hands on the jester's forehead. With no opposition from the Jester, the mature Lilith proceeded confidently, knowing that all events had culminated to this precise moment, every detail meticulously orchestrated.

She manipulated the Jester's memories to suit her desires, knowing from the start that she had no intention of killing the Jester. That's why she had claimed she would leave it to the two young ones. It would be foolish not to make use of such a valuable chess piece. The Jester would be sent back and used as a source of information later on. Dealing with her would come later for Lilith.

Mature Lilith needed to break down the emotional barriers of her enemies in order to implant the seed of control and alter their memories. The leader would never suspect anything was amiss with the careful arrangement of mature Lilith. Every detail had been meticulously planned.

With a snap of her fingers, she sent the Jester away, who would later awaken believing she had escaped from a terrifying monster and encountered a mysterious helper. The Jester had lost an arm and the Jammer had died. The only information she had on this individual was that they were the secret protectors nurtured by the Spear of Destruction and the Evangeline.

It seemed they had plans for Lilith and Noah. This information would be enough to entice the demons into seeking more knowledge about this person. It would also lead them to discover the alliance between the Adler and the Evangeline, which was actually just a distraction to divert attention away from the true intentions.

As everything fell into place, the mature Lilith stumbled on her feet before collapsing onto Noah's body. The final touches were added, creating the illusion of a fierce and devastating battle that had taken place. It seemed as though a mysterious guardian had come to the rescue, saving Lilith and Noah from certain doom before vanishing without a trace.

Soon after, the guild leader of the Sun guild arrived, accompanied by several staff members from Peerless Academy. They were taken aback by the sight of the destruction and the seemingly unharmed duo. It was clear to them that someone had come to their aid, but the identity of this mysterious helper remained a mystery.

The guild leader and the staff members quickly concluded that Lilith and Noah had received assistance from a powerful and elusive ally.
