P.O.V: Diana
Early in the morning, the sun mild and the weather perfect.
I hang on a pull up bar made of woods adjoined to each other, doing full body pull ups with my white hair tied behind.
It's been fifteen years after being reborn in this godforsaken household.
The Dang family.
Previously known as the Tang family.
Regrouping, they changed their name to the Dang family after my elder brother wiped out the clan.
Previously known as the most feared of the Orthodox faction, they are now looked down upon by even second rate sects.
I keep doing my pull up reps, one at a time, though slim my arm muscle well defined and beautiful.
I drop down and my boobs bounce.
"Haah this annoying shit, why would a fifteen year old have so much."
It's not big per say but compared to my previous bodies, this is big.
"And I'm just fifteen" I say as I smack my head.
"Well I do love the ass though." I say as I turn to look at it.
I pick up a skipping rope made of twined palm fronds.
I had constructed all this materials myself with crude tools to aid in my physical training.
If David was here he'd have prolly teased me saying something like:
"Who'd have thought the oh so great Demon Lord would be using her hands to construct crude tools"
I giggle a little at the thought but then go completely silent carrying a sad look on my face.
After I got reborn, I thought David would be reborn with me but, unfortunately he was not.
I start skipping.
Cheon Mu Ak, I lost my brother cause of that man.
I lost the only thing keeping me happy, the only thing keeping me sane in this world.
Heavenly Demon Cult!
Cheon Mu Ak.
I promise to make you pay.
I promise.
skipping and sweating profusely, my calves burning I refuse to stop.
I have to activate my dantian this night.
Though I was given my own private little courtyard as favour from the Patriarch.
Bearing the name Dang Ki So along with the fact that I hadn't awakened my dantian I've been treated as a maid by the household.
The "Ki" in Dang Ki So is used for people who are not of direct lineage of the Dang family.
Though I was born from an extramarital affair between the family head and a sales woman I was ostracized by the family.
The woman who bore me was killed by the Dang Mistress a year after I was born.
Though known by everyone no one dared say a word.
Even my so called father did nothing.
All that needs to change.
Starting from this night.
I finally stop skipping.
Panting I pick up a jug of water by my side and begin to drink.
Now to go take my bath.
Knock knock!
A knock on the gate of the courtyard stops me in my tracks.
"Huh? who could that be?"
Knock knock! The person knocks again.
I sigh and reluctantly go to open the gate.
And of course it was him.
Dang Ki Heo, another member of the Dang family with the Ki in his name.
His grandfather was the previous family heads cousin who tried to have his way with the previous Clan Mistress.
According to the rules he and his immediate family where to be killed or banished but due to the Dang family's situation only he was killed.
The others were left untouched.
Though they were demoted and their names were changed to now carry "Ki" in their names.
He's been following me around for a year plus now, professing his love for me.
He's not the only one but he's the most annoying.
"If only my brother was here he'd take care of all this trash." I say to myself as I give off a long sigh.
"What do you want now" I ask him in visible disgust.
"C'mon, don't be like that So, I just came to greet you, also came with some gifts you might like." He says as he signals for his friends to bring something.
They bring a little box containing something I didn't know.
I was about slamming the gate when I sensed something, it was a herb, one I've been unable to get for a while.
Who would've thought this good for nothing short ugly ass looking Heo would be this useful.
I quickly take it off his hands and open it to check if it's the real deal and It is.
"Does that mean you finally accept me Dang Ki So?" He asks me excited.
"Oh, hell nah!" I say as I slam the gate and walk towards my room.
He grits his teeth in annoyance.
"Well I tried being nice Dang Ki So" He says as he turns back and walks away with his friends.
Now I have all the ingredients ready.
All I need to do is activate my dantian.
But first I have to go take my bath and complete my chores for the day.
I go in, place the box on a table, take my bath and head out in my maid uniform to work.
I get back in the evening and the sun is already setting.
Tired and drained, I collapse on my little bed on the floor.
"I'll just rest a little, eat and then get on to activating my dantian" That's what I told myself but I slept off.
I wake up to the footsteps of people entering my little compound a few hours after I had slept off.
I quickly get up picking up my short sword from the side of my bed.
Who'd bother breaking into my hou...
Huh? why's my vision blurry.
I stagger to my knees as the sword falls off my hands.
This bastards had infused a poisonous gas into my room while I slept.
The door suddenly bursts open as a figure holding a lantern walks in.
It was Dang Ki Heo.
Two other figures rush in towards me from behind pinning me to the ground.
"I tried being nice, Dang Ki So, why won't you accept me, are you also looking down on me like the rest of the family? Am I so much of a joke" He begins to rant as he comes in.
This bastard, has he finally gone crazy?
"Today I'll make you mine completely." He says as he shuts the door behind him and slowly begins to undress.
Does this bastard plan on doing what I think he plans on doing?
I am utterly disgusted in my guts.
My body's still weak from the poison.
I could easily take out this third rates if not for the poison.
What do I do.
Even if I manage to free myself for a moment can I take down this three?
"There's nothing you can't do Diana" The wordings of my brother ring in head.
His words give me some energy as I give off a sigh.
Stupid David, you just had to go an not get reborn.
Using my abdominal muscles I pull my legs to my trunk using it to hit away the two pinning me down.
C'mon Diana, you've not gotten revenge for David, this is most definitely not how it's going to start.
I flip over with one knee on the ground, I try to pick up my sword but it is kicked away by one of the two guys who pinned me down.
The other kicks me across the face.
I fall to the ground with my white hair covering my face.
"Cmon Diana we still have a long way to go." David's voice rings in my head again.
I quickly use my left leg to swipe one off his feet falling him to the ground.
The other kicks me in the stomach.
I grab his leg not letting it go.
"We need to do what we must to survive sis" A memory of David feeding me raw flesh when we were wondering through the wilderness plays in my head.
I begin biting the leg of the guy who kicked me.
He screams and uses his other leg to kick me.
I let go and he falls to the ground backing away.
I rise slowly, my hair all ragged and falling forward.
My mouth stained with blood.
The three looking at me as if looking at a ghost.
"Go for the kill Diana" Another memory of David and I hunting fishes in a river plays in my head.
I notice a dagger sticking out at the waist of Heo.
"The difference between you and I Diana is that I always go for the kill." Another memory of I and David in the cult plays in my head.
I quickly rush towards Heo.
The other guy I had swiped off his feet tries to rush at me to block me.
"There's the Carotid, the wind pipe, the chest, slightly towards the left, the back where the vessels lie close to the spine, the spine itself along the neck." Another memory plays.
I reach Heo before him.
Reaching Heo, I quickly pull out his dagger, turn backwards and stab the guy trying to protect Heo in the left side of his neck and pull it forward, completely cutting the the Carotid artery, Jugular vein and a little part of the wind pipe.
This sprays blood in the air, my face, my hair, the walls and the left side of Heo's face.
His face was filled with horror.
His legs shaking he collapses to the ground.
This, this feels...good I feel...excited, is this how David felt everytime he ended his enemies In such ways.
Beautiful.
I turn towards the other guys on the ground.
How should I kill this one.
Maybe...
