Destroying My Own World

Sasha opened her eyes and she didn't remember what actually happened after she killed the dragon. She looked around and she was in a hospital bed, and nobody was with her in the room. She then slowly got up, and when she looked outside the window, it was still dark and she could hear gunshots in the distance.

She silently listened to the noises as she stared blankly at the wall and tried to remember what had happened. She started to remember what happened that she didn't try to avoid the crash when she was still on top of the dragon's body. She let herself be crushed by the dragon's body and that was why she was unconscious.

"How are you feeling, Miss Sasha?" A nurse asked as she came in after she found out Sasha had regained consciousness.

"I'm completely fine, unfortunately," Sasha answered without hesitation.

The nurse furrowed her eyebrows and tried to ignore what she had just heard. She then checked Sasha's condition thoroughly, and it was as Sasha said that she was completely fine.

"How long did I sleep?" Sasha asked.

"A whole day, Miss Sasha. It seems that you're lacking sleep and you're still showing symptoms of not getting enough rest," The nurse answered. "Why don't you get some more rest? Although the condition out there is a bit chaotic, it's already under control Thanks your guild, Miss Sasha," The nurse continued with a gentle smile.

"I see. I'll take the offer then," Sasha replied and smiled back at the nurse.

The nurse left, and then Sasha's smile disappeared because she remembered what she said to Anzel and the others. She felt bad and she had no idea why she was so pissed at that time, and how could he say something like that in the first place.

The more she was thinking about it, the more gloomy she became that she didn't realize the whole room had been covered in black smoke. She noticed it when she heard a giggle that came from inside her head, and she immediately gritted her teeth and clenched her fist.

"Now now, don't do that to yourself. You're not in the wrong and they're all indeed useless," Lucifer said as he appeared from the smoke and stood next to Sasha. "Although, I'm loving it when you're acting like this," Lucifer chuckled mischievously.

"Shut up!" Sasha screamed as she glared at Lucifer. "Leave me alone..." Sasha said in a trembling voice.

"Miss Sasha?! Is something the matter?!" The nurse barged in to check on Sasha after she heard the scream.

"Give me something that can make me feel relaxed..." Sasha looked at the nurse with her tired eyes. "I need something to ease my mind," Sasha continued.

The nurse approached Sasha and looked at her pupils, and then she felt the pulse on Sasha's wrist that was beating really fast. She could hear Sasha's heavy breathing, and those were enough to give Sasha something to help her.

"Please wait a moment, Miss Sasha. I'll ask the doctor to get you something. I'll be right back!" The nurse said and then left the room hurriedly.

"What are you trying to do, Sasha? You think that will help you?" Lucifer asked as he chuckled.

Sasha ignored Lucifer as she put the base of her palms on her ears so tightly. She knew it wouldn't work because Lucifer could speak right through her mind, but she kept doing that to make her feel a bit better.

"(You think it will help, Sasha? Just let me in and everything will be over)" Lucifer said.

"No..." Sasha said quietly.

"(I'm surprised you're still sane, but I have all the time to wait until you turn insane and give up on it)" Lucifer laughed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Sasha didn't want to close her eyes because she had been haunted by the life she had back in hell. Every time she went to sleep, she would experience all the torture she had back then. The pain and everything felt so real, but whenever she woke up, nothing happened. She couldn't even close her eyes for a few seconds because she would be dragged into the same nightmare again.

"Miss Sasha?" A doctor asked as she looked at Sasha with a worried expression. "I brought something that's appropriate for your need. Please drink this and you'll feel a lot better in a few minutes," she continued as she showed a few pills in her hand.

Sasha grabbed all the pills and immediately swallowed all of them at once. The nurse gave her a drink to ease the flow in her throat, and she emptied the glass in just a few seconds.

"You can get some rest now, Miss Sasha. Hope you feel better," The doctor said with a pitiful smile.

Sasha nodded and watched the doctor and the nurse leave the room.

"Doctor, is she okay?" The nurse asked as soon as she closed the door behind her.

"Perhaps she has post-traumatic stress disorder. It's given that she has been dealing with demons, and we have no idea what she dealt with inside the portal," The doctor answered. "If something happens to her again, just tell me," she pointed out.

"Yes, doctor," The nurse nodded her head.

Sasha was staring blankly at the window, and she was waiting until the medicine took effect. She waited ten minutes, but nothing happened, and she started to get worried that something was wrong with her.

"You're funny, Sasha. Do you think those things could help you? Your body has detoxified all the pills you just took because your body is immune to it," Lucifer said.

Sasha glared at Lucifer as she started to breathe heavily, and then she looked at the daggers on the table. She ran and grabbed one of the daggers, and then she stabbed her left wrist. The dagger couldn't even leave a scratch on her wrist, and she realized that she couldn't die even if she wanted to.

"Just let me in, Sasha. You won't suffer from this," Lucifer said.

"No. I won't give in. I still have hope," Sasha said as she dropped the dagger. "Mykel is my last and only hope," Sasha stared Lucifer in the eye.

Lucifer's expression changed drastically, and then Sasha got pushed onto the wall without him touching her. She was floating above the ground, and then she felt like she was being choked on and couldn't breathe.

"Mykel is your hope? Do you even understand what's happening right now? Everything that's happening right now is because of him! He killed Gods and thought he could do the same thing as he did in the novel," Lucifer said as he stood right in front of Sasha. "Thanks to him, more people have been chosen, I have to send all these demons to feed them and make them stronger," Lucifer continued.

"So what? Demons, Angels, Gods, all of you are the same. You guys sacrificed lives so you could get what you guys want and stop Mykel," Sasha replied as she looked at Lucifer. "Do you think I care?" Sasha forced a smug.

"You think I'll let you meet him?" Lucifer asked with a huge smile on his face. "I'll change you into something that you can't imagine before that happens," Lucifer continued as he gently stroked Sasha's cheek.

Sasha chuckled as she stared Lucifer in the eye, and that was the first time Lucifer saw a slither of hope in her eye. He didn't like that, and he felt like no matter how hard he tried to break her, she wouldn't give in.

"If Mykel has the power to kill Gods, that means he can kill you and you should be worried about yourself rather than playing with me," Sasha said with a smug.

"I admit that I made a blunder about that system that I created, but you should know that he failed to do so. He tried two years ago, but he was helpless and spent years in the deep of hell on his knees. What makes you think he can do it this time?" Lucifer asked as he stared back at Sasha.

"I know Mykel more than anyone else in this world, not even you," Sasha answered. "He's someone who will always find a way. If he wants something, he will get it," Sasha said with confidence.

"Is that so?" Lucifer smirked in excitement. "But you should be worried about yourself as well because I'm going to break you so that even Raphael can't help you. Brace yourself," Lucifer continued and entered Sasha's body.
