《Abyssus》Twenty-Seventh Submersion
Advertisement
Kin’s dead mother advanced on him, teeth chattering together in a nightmare imitation of his own jaws. Jerking forward awkwardly, the corpse moved in fits and stutters, jerking its decayed bulk forward like a lurching ship on a high sea.
Of course, by this time, Kin was too terrified to do anything except curl up in a ball, shaking.
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’m sorry I lived. I’m sorry you died, please don’t come here, I’m sorry, sorry I was born
As his mother bent down over him, she dissolved, melted into nothing, her image blurring as it simply evaporated.
Revealing the distended, bulging head of the strange, bighead Siren.
Ah.
With his mother out of the picture, Kin’s mind regained a sliver of focus.
And as the Siren reached out to him, Kin kicked. Hard. He didn’t know what direction he was attacking in, only that it was in the general vicinity of his accoster.
Contact, and the Siren’s weak hand didn’t do much against the force, sending it backwards and giving Kin several precious seconds to regroup. Thinking quickly, he reached for his pressure pistol and shot, throwing the Siren back. Pulling out his knife, he advanced forward, paddling slowly and cautiously towards the monster, now crouched like a cornered cat.
And then it stared at him with those lifeless eyes, grey like his dead mother’s, grey and muddy like the one on the head of the thing that smiled.
Truly, this was the face of Death himself.
Another barrage of thoughts assaulted Kin’s head.
Murderer filthy murderer killer aren’t you
“Agh!”
?sorry? Aren?t you sorr,y?*
It was stronger than before, completely assaulting Kin’s mind and subverting his train of consciousness.
Eh? Why can’t I t^%nk?
What i$ thi&*)?
More and more, Kin’s mind began to decohere.

Kin’s thoughts were annihilated as soon as they be??n, the mental onslau?ght crushing his logical processes to pieces.

As all his thoughts faded to white and Kin’s vision blurred out, he could faintly hear someone laughing. An rusty, old, corroded sound that had the sour tang of things better left unremembered.

Steps of the Immortal Tree
Evan stood on a hill, staring calmly at the gate of his former clan. A crowd waited behind him, some eyeing the clan in an unresigned manner, others looking at their spiritual support. Some of the young children shivered at the gnawing cold. Wind howled in his ears, seemingly deploring his fate. A silvery cloud drifted over the mountains surrounding the compound. The roar of a river could be heard from underneath its frozen surface. He had reincarnated many years ago. Hailed as a prodigy from his youngest age, Evan had seemingly tread on a path to invincibility. He had gotten married with his childhood sweetheart and had cultivated with a group of friends, forming a considerable power of his own. Yet now, here he was, devoid of any path to move forward, with his energy locus destroyed. His wife was dead and his branch had been kicked out of the clan. He looked at his progeny that had been entrusted to him. The baby seemed content in his father’s strong arms, too young to understand anything but the warmth of the father’s beating heart. Signaling to the people behind him, he turned around and the procession gradually disappeared in the distance, as the sun gradually set and the stars acted as a guide. --- Author-san here. I originally started this novel on another account, but lost the login information for it, so I'll be restarting this story here. Thanks for understanding! This is my first fiction, so I appreciate any and all feedback! (^^) The cover picture is by Yuji Himukai (as pointed out by Truis). I found it on the internet. Please contact me if you want to have it taken down. If anyone is interested in drawing a cover, send it to me. I'll put it up if I feel it represents the book well, with your name in the credits.
