The Author's POV
Chapter 30
It felt as if time had frozen. My mind blanked. My blood froze. My breathing quickened. My pupils dilated.
...I thought I was prepared.
Since reincarnation inside of my novel, I knew that one day I would encounter a demon.
I was ready...I thought
But looking at the creature haughtily sitting on the throne, hallucinations of death repeatedly replayed in my mind.
'I have to run!'
...I repeated again and again in my mind.
I knew that...yet my legs refused to listen to me
Ba...dump! Ba...dump!
The hall was silent, and only the sound of my heartbeat repeatedly pulsing could be heard.
Sweat started dripping down from my body, soaking all my clothes. With a shivering hand, I tightly clenched on my clothes, right where my heart was.
What's this...?
...Am I scared?
'There's no way I can fight against that!'
...was what my mind repeatedly told itself as my eyes transfixed themselves onto the demonic creature that was amusingly looking down on me from the throne. With its blood-red eyes, the demon looked down at me as it smiled widely.
"It seems like a little mouse has sneaked inside my abode"
Licking its lips, the demon eyes carefully looked at me up and down, almost as if a delicious snack had presented itself before it.
-Crack! -Crack! -Crack!
Using its thumb, the demon slowly cracked every one of its fingers on its right hand.
"huuuuu...."
Letting out a long breath I forcefully tried to calm myself down.
'This is all an illusion!'
What I was experiencing was the innate fear a prey faced when meeting a predator.
If I thought about it rationally, although my opponent was strong, it wasn't to the point that I would have to despair.
Yes...
The demon's stats couldn't be above F rank, else the dungeon would've already desynced.
The fear I was experiencing was all in my mind.
I didn't have to fear what was before me.
...was what I repeatedly tried to tell myself, yet I still couldn't stop my body from trembling.
The feeling I was experiencing was similar to the moments before I took my final exams.
I knew I could do it, as I had prepared rigorously for it...but even if I was prepared, it didn't stop me from being scared.
"How cute..."
Amusingly looking down on me, the Demon leaned forward as its red eyes carefully looked at me.
Instantly, it felt as if all my secrets had been laid bare for the demon to look at. It felt as if nothing could be hidden from its two prying blood-red eyes.
"G rank..."
-tap! -tap! -tap!
Shaking its head disappointedly the Demon began tapping on the armrest of the throne as it started pondering.
Finally, after a couple of seconds, the Demon shook its head in disappointment.
