Chapter 76 - The Birth of a Demon King

The Birth of a Demon King

The battlefield roared with chaos.

Gunfire.

Screams.

Blood painting the ground.

Then—

Silence crept in.

Not complete.

But enough.

Because something had entered.

Ryan.

He walked in slowly.

Calm.

Unhurried.

But the moment his foot touched the battlefield—

Everything changed.

Men froze.

Weapons lowered.

Even enemies felt it.

A presence.

Dark.

Heavy.

Unforgiving.

It flowed from him like a river of death.

A new king had been born.

No—

A demon.

Ryan stopped at the center.

His eyes cold.

Empty.

Sharp enough to cut through souls.

"Anyone against me…" his voice echoed, low and deadly.

"…won't leave this ground alive."

A pause.

Then—

💥 War resumed.

But this time—

It wasn't a battle.

It was a massacre.

Ryan moved.

Fast.

Fluid.

Terrifying.

His curved knives flashed—

One slit.

Another.

Another.

Necks opened.

Blood sprayed.

Bodies dropped before they even understood what hit them.

He didn't stop.

Didn't slow.

Didn't hesitate.

He carved through them like a storm of blades.

Like death itself had taken form.

Lucas Returns

From the shadows—

Lucas arrived.

Dragging Alex.

Broken.

Bleeding.

Barely conscious.

He threw him toward Vinnie.

"Lock him up," Lucas said coldly.

"And if he escapes…"

A pause.

"You leave."

Vinnie nodded immediately.

Lucas turned—

Grabbing weapons.

Strapping them onto himself.

Then stepped into the battlefield.

But—

Ryan stopped him.

"Leave."

Lucas froze.

Ryan didn't look at him.

"I don't want to lose anyone else."

A beat.

"…Or I'll kill you myself."

Silence.

Lucas understood.

He stepped back.

But he didn't leave completely.

He stayed in the shadows.

Watching.

Ready.

The Last Stand

Ryan kept moving.

Even when blades cut into his flesh—

He didn't stop.

Even when bullets grazed him—

He didn't react.

Even when he was stabbed—

Again.

And again.

He kept fighting.

Like a king.

Like a lion.

Unbreakable.

And through it all—

A voice echoed in his mind.

"Stay strong, Ryan…"

His mother.

He gripped his knife tighter.

And slaughtered everything in front of him.

Minutes felt like hours.

Hours felt like seconds.

Until—

Silence.

Real silence.

Bodies covered the ground.

Thousands.

Enemies.

Gone.

Ryan stood alone.

Blood dripping from his blades.

From his body.

From everywhere.

Breathing steady.

Alive.

Unstoppable.

The Final Enemy

One man remained.

A Russian.

Barely standing.

Gun in hand.

His body trembled.

His energy drained.

But he still pointed the gun at Ryan.

"Look at you…" he said weakly.

"…you're finished."

Ryan didn't move.

Didn't blink.

Didn't even breathe harder.

"I have no choice…" the man whispered.

He raised the gun higher.

And aimed.

At Ryan's head.

"Than to kill you."

A beat.

💥 BANG.

A gunshot echoed.

Then—

Silence.

Complete.

Still.

Deadly.

But the question remained—

Who pulled the trigger?Did Ryan finally fall…?

Or did someone else just enter the battlefield?

And if Ryan survived… what will he become next?
