Chapter 3:

True Colors

Demon's Path | Akuma No Michi


The russian man told Akuma his name, it was Dmitri. He approached Akuma with loaves of bread, quite old but after all it was food, and Akuma was starving. So he accepted the offer and started munching down on the bread. However after he was done, the evil in him started to regain. It was time for him to show his ‘True Colors’. We hadn’t seen this previously, and it is the first time we will. However in all actuality, Akuma has a certain ability, which you will see now. He lunged at the fair man, clenching Dmitri’s throat with his fist, which after he popped. Blood gushing down his body like a river. Dmitri attempted to fight back, but it was futile. Readers, don’t start thinking Akuma is a good person, he will always be an evil bastard. 《 Ability 》Belly Of The Beast- His jaw unhinged, his mouth opened to such lengths that he could fit an absurd amount of humans in it. His teeth were sharp, razor sharp, like small knives, or rather daggers. He grabbed Dmitri and inserted him into his mouth, his evil nature finally shining and revealing to the world. After placing Dmitri inside his colossal mouth, he chomped down on him. Blood was spurting in every direction, the left, the right, up, and down. A horrid sight, but for Akuma, this was just some simple work in order to fulfill his urge and hunger. After completely turning Dmitri’s corpse into bones, he spat him out, as it wasn’t necessary to digest his skeleton, but yes it was possible for Akuma. I as a writer myself wonder, does Akuma have any more abilities? Or is this the only one? I’ll have to find out with you. “Dmitri, my friend, you’re one of those cliche good guys, so I had to eat you to be honest. Sorry!”- His trademark maniacal laugh was heard again, this time much more evil. He searched the bag of the man, and what he found truly revealed that no matter how nice, or kind a human may seem, human nature is always fueled by greed. He retrieved the orb from the brown leather bag, and took clothes stored in the bag, they were comfy, and he wouldn’t get damaged by the cold like this. So after grabbing some more bread from the tent he set out on his journey again. “Wow, these clothes really are warm.”- The Childish Devil ran, ran , and ran as fast as he could, the anticipation excited him, he wanted to meet someone stronger than him. From where he currently was he could see the top of the White Mountains. A place he was hoping to soon arrive at. In a matter of 20 seconds. Akuma had arrived at the entrance of the White Mountains. A luxurious gate, it was portrayed as luxurious, but Akuma saw it’s true colors as well. A gate constructed by bones, human bones, varying from the feet, until the head. The gate opened, the creaking noise reverberated throughout the valley of white. Akuma took each step with more excitement, he was finally going to meet Lady Death, who was stated to be extremely powerful. He wasn’t very intelligent, but his instincts were always correct. He went towards the mountains, they were enormous, compared to them Akuma looked like an ant. They were called the white mountains for a reason, covered in pure snow, pure white, and at the very bottom what could be seen as a door appeared. Akuma took the brave decision of opening the sketchy door, which led him to a wide and giant hallway. It was complete silence, not even the faintest sound could be heard. However, he felt something.
