Chapter 2: Soul Eater

1

The insects crawled throughout my body relentlessly.

They’re devouring me.

As they bit, tore, chewed, and slurped, my body continued to disappear as though I were melting away.

They’ll keep eating me until nothing’s left.

They wouldn’t stop. I couldn’t stop them. No doubt the high-pitched creaking noises reverberating through the cave were the larvae chortling with joy.

YOU’RE BEING EATEN.

My arms were gone. My legs were gone. I’d never be able to pick up a sword again. I’d never be able to even walk again.

YOU’RE GOING TO DIE.

My eyes, nose, ears, and mouth were all overflowing with maggots. I knew I was a goner.

ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO GIVE UP?

Of course I am.

In truth, I’d probably already given up a long time ago and simply hadn’t wanted to admit it. Deep down, I’d known for some time that I, Sora Mitsurugi, would never amount to anything.

THEN YOU’RE A FOOL.

That’s right, I’m a fool. A huge fool.But what can I possibly do in this situation other than give up?

EAT.

Excuse me?

EAT THEM.

E-Eat what? These insects?

CORRECT.

What would that accomplish? I’m already done for. Crushing a hundred or so insects between my teeth won’t stop the thousands already crawling through me, and there are even more than that all over this cave. It’s no use.

THEN YOU’LL JUST LET THEM CONSUME YOU?

It’s not like I want them to. I don’t want to die. But there’s nothing I can do. Back on the islands, they always said weaklings were unnecessary. And they were right. They didn’t need me on Onigashima, and they didn’t need me in Ishka. Not as a swordsman, not as an adventurer, and not as Sora Mitsurugi! My father was absolutely right all along!

DOESN’T THAT INFURIATE YOU?

Infuriate me?

IF YOU DIE, YOUR FATHER WILL SMIRK WITH SATISFACTION.

No, he won’t. Even if I was dying in front of him, he wouldn’t bat an eye. I was dead to him the moment he disowned me, after all. But...

BUT?

Ragna will definitely be thrilled. Ayaka, Gozu, Cecil, and my father’s other disciples will too. They’ll laugh among themselves and say that it was a fitting end for the incompetent Sora. So would the Falcon Blades, the guild receptionist, and the innkeeper and his daughter. I’m sure of it.

AND THAT UPSETS YOU, DOESN’T IT?

Yeah. I admit it. It fills me with rage. I might already be beyond saving, but I at least don’t want to be laughed at in my final moments. If dying means they’ll laugh at me, then even if it’s a futile effort, I’ll at least wipe those smiles off their faces by putting up a fight. Even if it’s just ten or twenty insects, I’ll take as many of the Lord of the Flies’ children with me to the grave as I can!

Fortunately, I could still move my mouth, and I still had teeth. I could crush a maggot with ease by biting down on it.

THEN EAT.

Yeah, I’ll eat. If I’m going to die anyway, I might as well struggle until my last breath—OR, if I’m
