Chapter 698: The Story of Ronzic’s Fall into Madness Part 1 – The Cracking Moment
Narrator: We now take a look back into Ronzic’s past. Laura had already explained to Sasha the death of Ronzic’s sister, Beth. But was that everything? Perhaps there is more here to find… We start at a point that is a few days following Beth’s death.
10-year-old Ronzic holds a large bag and merges into a damaged wall as he sneaks into an area guarded by light divine beings and angels. As he stays merged into the wall, he peeks out through the other side to see if there are any light beings in the walled-off courtyard. There are none nearby, and another damaged wall blocks the view of anyone farther away that could possibly see him sneak by.
Ronzic: (Thinking) “Good! This won’t be too hard.”
Ronzic emerges from the wall and starts sneaking by, trying to avoid making any noises as he walks. He crouch-walks to reduce noise from his own movements. He heads straight for the wall of a building and merges into it once he reaches it.
Ronzic: (Thinking) “That’s one step closer to taking what rightfully belongs to us.”
Now, within the building wall, he peeks inside the building. The room he finds himself peeking into is square-shaped and has a lit fireplace. Two male angels sit on leather chairs in front of the fireplace as they talk to each other.
Male Angel 1: “Have you ever thought about what the future holds? Even if we beat the dark divine beings and demons into submission, what would be left of this planet?”
Male Angel 2: “You’re right to wonder about that. Our constant divine wars have driven mortals to near-extinction. Does the Divine World have a policy for this situation? We would definitely need to populate the world with more mortals. Otherwise, what’s the point of being here, or even in Heaven?”
MA1: “Not that I’m aware of. The Divine World leaves all planets to regulate themselves. It would be a shame to have to abandon this planet.”
Ronzic: (Thinking) “And that’s your fault!”
Ronzic looks around to see if there is some way he can get them to leave. He sees a lamp in a hallway just outside the room.
Ronzic: (Thinking) “That should get these bozos to leave.”
Ronzic merges a small piece of the wall directly into his fingers and starts sticking his right hand out of the wall. He flicks his fingers forward, unleashing the pieces of wall from them. The small pieces directly hit the lamp in the hallway, knocking it over and breaking it.
The two angels are alerted and stand up. Ronzic quickly retracts his hand back into the wall.
MA2: “What was that!?”
MA1: “It came from the hallway! Let’s check it out!”
The angels leave the room, allowing Ronzic to emerge from the wall. Ronzic sneaks through toward the room’s other exit.
MA2: “Oh no! The lamp broke!”
MA1: “Well, that sucks! How did that happen? It was such a nice lamp too.”
Ronzic finishes sneaking out of the room as he hears their conversation continue.
MA2: “I suppose we could always get it fixed. Come on, let’s take it over to Kohn.”
MA1: “Good idea.”
Ronzic stops paying attention to their conversation as he sniffs the air.
Ronzic: (Thinking) “I smell food! Perfect!”
Ronzic merges into the wall to his right and peeks into the next room. He finds himself looking into a dining room with a large rectangular table that is covered with freshly cooked meat and other protein-filled foods.
Ronzic smiles.
Ronzic: (Thinking) “Nice! Very nice! That will keep us fed for a while!”
Just as he emerges from the wall, he hears voices in the kitchen connected to the dining room.
Male Voice 1: (Cheery tone) “Everyone is going to get their share of protein. It helps build muscle, you know.”
Female Voice: “I know, but that’s not the only nutrient we need!”
Male Voice 2: “You’re right but strong muscles help in battle.”
Female Voice: “Are you dumb? Magic helps in battle even more so, even for physical attacks!”
Male Voice 2: “In case you forgot, plant life has been in decline. It doesn’t rain enough, and the constant destruction of environments hinders their growth.”
Female Voice: “That just sounds like this planet is a lost cause…”
Male Voice 1: (Cheery tone) “Relax, everyone! I can make a variety of foods! I just ask that everyone hold off from eating until all the food is done.”
While the light divine beings in the kitchen talk amongst themselves, Ronzic takes advantage and begins taking a lot of the food from the table and placing it into his large bag. As soon as he finishes taking all the food that can fit in his bag, he merges back into the wall that he came from. Upon coming out the other side, he hears the female voice from the kitchen.
Female Voice: “Hey! Did someone eat the food that was sitting on the table!?”
Male Voice 2: “It wasn’t me!”
Male Voice 1: (Cheery tone) “Someone must have been very hungry! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!”
Ronzic returns through the room with the lit fireplace and then back through the original wall he used to enter the building. Once he emerges from that wall back into the courtyard, he moves quickly while still carrying the large food-filled bag just barely above the ground. Any lower and it would be dragging against the ground. He reaches the original damaged courtyard wall and merges with it, bringing his bag of food with him. However, just as the bag finishes going into the wall, a male angel with a full beard turns a corner of the building’s wall and just barely sees it. He stops and rubs his beard.
***
Narrator: Later that day.
Ronzic carries the large bag to a run-down building and merges with the wall to go through it and into a bad-quality room with other dark divine being children and demon children. They all open their eyes wide as they see him.
All Children: “Ronzic! You’re back!”
Ronzic walks up to their poor-quality table. He sets the bag on the floor and starts taking the meat out of it. He places the food on the table as the children start salivating.
Female Dark Divine Being Child: “It smells so good!”
Male Demon Child: “Yeah, Ronzic! I don’t know how you did it but this is amazing!”
The children begin sloppily eating the meat.
Ronzic: “Enjoy yourselves, everyone. I’m going to bring the rest of the food back to my home so my friends and I can have some too. After that, I will be back and we can figure out what the next thing we want to do is.” Ronzic walks to the back end of the room and merges into the wall to exit out the other side.
***
Narrator: That evening.
Ronzic returns to the run-down building with Laura and Biff at his side.
Ronzic opens the door to the building. Before he walks inside, he, Laura, and Biff all open their eyes wide. All of the children inside are bloody and dead on the floor. A large brown dog with a magic aura surrounding it stands around them. Before the dog notices them, it starts to glow and then changes into a humanoid shape. Once the glow ends, it turns out that the dog was the bearded male angel who noticed Ronzic’s bag going through the wall.
Male Angel: (‘Talking’ to the dead kids) “Damn, kids. This is what you get when you steal from us. But you’re all part of the enemy anyway, so what does it matter? This is war.”
Ronzic’s eyes continue to open wider as his pupils get smaller and smaller. His head twitches a few times. With the angel’s back turned toward him, he charges at the angel. He then jumps onto the angel’s back and wraps his arms around the angel’s neck, trying to choke him.
Ronzic: “HATE! HATE! HATE!! HAAAAAAATE!!!!!!!”
Male Angel: “What the…!? There’s another kid!? Get off me, you brat!!”
The angel tries to wrestle Ronzic off him. As they struggle, Ronzic uses his fingers to poke the angel in the eyes.
Male Angel: “Gaaahh!!! My eyes!!!!”
Ronzic: “DIE! DIE! DIE!! DIIIIIIIIE!!!!!!!”
As the struggle continues, the angel bumps into the table, destroying it. A sharp knife gets flung into the air. Ronzic catches the knife and merges it into his right hand. Using the combined power of his hand and sharp knife, he thrusts his right hand into the angel’s neck, piercing a vital spot. The angel falls over and dies with his eyes open. Ronzic crawls out from underneath the angel’s body. Laura and Biff, having watched the whole thing, look speechless. Ronzic breaths heavily with a look of extreme hate in his eyes.
Ronzic: “Light beings, all of them, trash…! Every single one of them must suffer!”
Narrator: The moment Ronzic cracked!! This descent into madness is just getting started!
