Chapter 1: Start of Hell
A/N: Here we go again
Narrator POV
The world of sorcerers was something Y/N knew too well, since his childhood
At the age of 8, he was sent to his first secret mission, tasked to defeat a Grade 2 curse that appeard a week ago
But of course, his family did this on purpose, so they could speed up the growing of Y/N's strengh, sending him to strong enemies and foes
And if he dies? They could always make another child
They had no compassion for human lives, as they lived, only to die
Many have tried to change this way of thinking in the past, however, they either never had the strengh to back up their determination, or they didn't lived long enough to change it
This cycle have been going for hundred of years now
But let's focus on Y/N's mission for now, ok?
Walking toward an abandonned mansion, he could feel the curse energy coming from it, as without hesitation, he walked inside
His eyes were grey, devoted of any life, and his pace of walking was slow
Standing in the middle of the living room, he spoke a few words
Y/N: Here you are
The curse emerged from a wall behind Y/N, trying to attak him
It was a sort of larva-looking curse, many mouths around it's body, screaming things inaudible for Y/N
He turn around, his eyes glowing purple, a sword of pure curse energy appearing in his right hand
With one lazy move of his sword, the curse was destroyed instantly
And so was half of the mansion he was in
The sky was clear of any clouds, as Y/N stood there for a few seconds, before turning around, and return to the path of his house
When he got back, he was "welcomed" by his family, who was waiting for him
Elder: Did you killed the curse?
Y/N: Yes
Elder: Did you leave any evidence behind?
Y/N: The mansion got destroyed, there is no curse energy left-
In a instant, his answer was greeted by a slap from the elder, who looked at him angrily
Elder: You were supposed to not do any damage to the house! Now we won't gain as much as we were supposed to, because of you!
Y/N: .......
Elder: Apologize, now!
Y/N: ........
Elder: You damn brat-!
???: Enough
The commotion stopped, as they all turn to the voice, and see the head of the family, Temitsu, looking at everything
Temitsu: Did you find that curse strong?
Y/N: .....No, it wasn't enough to handle a slash from my sword
Temitsu: Good. It shows you are ready to take greater curses from now on. We will intensify your training once more. Go back to training
With a silent nod, Y/N went off to his training, no one daring to look at him
The goal of the training was for Y/N to unlock quickly a way to do and control Reversed Cursed Technique, which would allow him to heal himself, fill his body with curse energy, and always be at 100% of his strengh
The moment he would do it, he would be the strongest and most dangerous warrior in the world, or even in history
However.... Y/N wasn't of this mindset
He knew that he needed them so far, as he couldn't hold his own outside the family house, so he took on himself, and never talked back
They think he was just a puppet they could use, but he only was waiting for an opportunity
Going back to his training, he manifested his cursed energy sword, and started to practice his swordsman skill
After 2 hours of intense training, he started to do run in the forest, carrying weights, while also killing the curses who were roaming around freely
They were mere grade 3 and 4 curses, but their numbers was the problem, as even a grade 2 sorcerer would have trouble handling them
And yet, they weren't enough to stop Y/N, as he slaughtered them all, without breaking a sweat
But this time.... Y/N felt it, it was different than usual
He took off the weights from his body, his eyes lightly glowing
He heard some rustle from a bush at his side, as he slashed toward it, creating his sword mid-way, but nothing was there
Before he could even think of what did the noise, something grabbed the side of his head, and pushed it through multiple trees
Rolling on the dirt, Y/N catch himself, but his left arm was broken, and his forehead was bleeding
Looking forward, he didn't saw anything, but something connected with the back of his head, slamming it toward the ground, making a small crater
The hits were full of curse energy at first, but thanks to Y/N's hereditary technique, the impact was greatly decreased
But still, because of the surprise attack, and the fact he was still a child, the impact did leave a lot of damage to him
Someone grabbed him by the hair, lifting him from the ground, his face full of dirt and blood
He saw it was a curse, but it wasn't like the one he fought before
This one had strategy, and knew how to do sneak attacks
It could be a semi-grade 1, or even a grade 1, but still......
Y/N was in a bad spot
The curse tossed him to a tree, as he fell to his butt, but soon got up, glaring at the curse
At the Household.......
Elder: You released a Grade 1 curse in the forest?!
Temitsu: Indeed. It's for the training of this brat. The better way to get result is to push him to his limit everyday
Elder: What about the other family members?! They could die!
Tamitsu: Do not be alarmed, we have a curtain around the household, and a bigger one around the forest. The curse won't be able to break in
Elder: If you say so......
Temitsu: At the same time, we can see if his ability is above the average rank of sorcerer now, or he needs more training
He look toward the forest, and see some trees were falling
With a smirk, he said those few words
Temitsu: Don't let me down, Y/N. I have great plans for you in the future
Back to Y/N........
Falling to his knee, out of breath, Y/N couldn't hold it anymore
He still managed to hold his own for a good 5 minutes, but still, he was too badly injured to keep going
The cursed, who had a humanoid form, grinned smugly, grabbing the broken arm of Y/N, and tear it off
About to yell, he was shut off by a kick to the jaw, that broke it
Y/N: Am I...... going to die? I already lost an arm, and my jaw is broken..... I can't even call for help... not like someone would come anyway......
His eyes started to lose it's purple glow, as he slowly closed his eyes
???: You useless brat!
His eyes shot open, as before it could connect, he grabbed the foot of the curse, stopping it in place
Y/N: Useless....... No.....
His body started to cover in purple curse energy, as he slowly got up, pushing the curse away
Y/N: I will..... never be useless......
His blood disappeard, and soon, his arm regrew
Y/N: I am the only one to decide my fate..... and if my fate is to die....
He looked at the curse, his eyes glowing a darker purple, one emotion clear off them
Hate
Y/N: It's not against you
He extended his right arm forward, opening his hand
Y/N: Reverse cursed technique.....
With a rush of a feeling of dread, the curse turn back and run away
Y/N: Befall........
Snap
He snapped his finger, as in a instant, dozen of portals appeard around the curse, sending beam of curse energy at it, killing it in the spot
Staring at the spot where the curse died, he gave a side look to the household
Y/N: If for them, pushing me this much will make me stronger......
He turn toward them, leaving a trail of curse energy behind him
But he stopped, his eyes losing their glow
Y/N: You're better than that Y/N.... I just need.....
He looked above, and see the sunset
Y/N: To end this story........ the way I want to..... even if I have to walk through hell
With a weak smile, he walked forward, to the house
Chapter 1: Finished
A/N: Rewritting the whole story, don't worry, starting to the end of the week, there will be more chapters since I will be free from work
Anyway, hoped you enjoy this chapter, and yes, we haven't entered the main story yet, just placing a few things for later
