1 It's The Former, You Stupid Bitch

Humans rule Earth, and it is the only planet they can call home, yet they continuously tread the path that leads to its destruction.

At first, it was just inching towards it, but it accelerated in full drive.

As the world continued to heat up and the topography change because of the rising waters and ma.s.sive earthquakes, humans still look the other way so they can maintain the status quo.

They will sit on their soft couches observing what is happening around them as if it was a bad joke; and laugh at the people protesting to make a change saying it is impossible, only to ridicule those who have done change by saying they have ulterior motives.

Some people scream for equality when they wish for superiority and others who use race as a weapon against those who are not like them.

People who are envy others for what they achieve saying they could grasp what successful people have if they just pour a little more effort only to end up doing nothing.

People who see only the surface of what is happening and deciding to judge others while saying it is not right to judge others.

Such problems could have been fixed already if they had just opened their minds and accepted things and try a little harder without looking away from the goals that they have set.

If humans could have just accepted the hypocrisy, they naturally hold.

If they could have just accepted the fact that everyone can move forward if they choose to climb pa.s.s of what they have.

If only they could live without regretting whether they live failing but die trying and giving their all or succeeding while bleeding to get to that point.

The change will not come.

It would have been impossible with the current status quo of the world. Without a ma.s.sive upheaval of the existing social structure and way of thinking, the world will not change.

After all, the world is built upon the thoughts and ideas of people within it.

Changes are bound to happen whether the human race likes it or not. The world will experience change that is beyond what humans can understand with the mind they believe to be superior to every being that treads upon their tiny world.

It is the destiny of humans to fall as they dawdle in pouring their efforts into little things without looking at the big picture.

Every human should have died when the grand change occurred —

But, as they say, destruction and devastation beget change.

When Earth finally turned against them, people finally realized what they are doing was a waste of time.

That, wasting their time in entertainment that could satisfy their dry lives is not a way for them to move forward but inch towards their unavoidable demise.

They took a step forward — away from the stagnant society they had.

With change happening around the world, the mindset of everyone began to change, and so, it became stronger.

The changes caused by the event they call [Cataclysm] brought upon a significant s.h.i.+ft to the world and the humans and every other creature inhabiting it.

Right now, the world gave humans to seek greater power.

With time, the world changed due to inexplicable reasons, and humans adapted and faced the dangers head-on.

Though they failed in keeping the social system they had and was forced to rebuild it to suit the current times, everyone was willing to accept the change.

In this new world, danger and violence exist like how oxygen does. Death will come if one is careless.

The world will abandon you if you are powerless and useless. The world will trample on you if you are weak-hearted.

Thankfully, Lilith was different. She was capable and was born with a strong will and heart, letting her find a way to live despite having no one to lean on.

She worked from the ground up crawling her way to earn the right to live as a human rather than crawl like a bug and die like one in the slums of the Sector she lives in.

She was abandoned by her parents when she was only five years old and then made a living by stealing. Being caught and then beaten is normal for her.

In her first two months in the slums, she would often bleed and there came not a day when she was without a single bruise or injury.

But the longer she stayed in the slums, the longer she adapted to the world that is underneath society.

She thrived in the underworld with her pickpocketing skills, and then with her luck of having enough beauty, she gained the favor of an Underworld Boss when she was 16 years old.

Who, she killed when she turned 20. Having killed their boss, she took over by influencing its members little by little, and by the time she turned 25, she already had the entire organization within her grasps.

Spreading her venom like some kind of curse, she slowly poisoned her Sector and controlled everything from the shadows.

From the tiniest of stores to the highest leaders, her shadow could be seen lurking like a watchful snake that could take your life with one swift stroke.

She spread her influence, and little by little, she expanded her territory and strengthened the organization rivaling that of long-established powers that had deep roots.

But, everything changed once these prideful powers decided that they would rather join hands and eradicate the venomous snake rather than get preyed on.

Calling upon the strength of the other powers, they were determined to exterminate her; the b.a.s.t.a.r.ds were even willing to join hands with the b.i.t.c.hy 'righteous' government just to uproot her organization.

Having caught the "love and attention" from so many people, Lilith fought against them, but it was too much for her whose organization was still in its infancy stage.

And now, she was cornered in her building, surrounded by the b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who once feared her and benefited from her, all looking at her as if she was a lamb to be slaughtered.

Sitting on her chair without even facing them, she let out a laugh, a calm laugh that caused their hearts to shudder.

"Why are you laughing, you venomous b.i.t.c.h?!"

She didn't need to turn around to know that it was Pryze, her previous right-hand man; upon hearing his words, she once again laughed. She carefreely spun her chair and faced the twenty people with a wide smile plastered on her red lips.

"So, as I have thought, you sided with them. How petty, just because I rejected your advances to sleep with you, you're acting like a child? How petty are you?"

She ridiculed.

*Bang!*

"You missed."

Lilith commented.

With the veins on his temple bulging, Pryze pulled the trigger of his gun and barely missed Lilith's right ear.

"Your reign of tyranny is now over, and we shall bring about justice f—"

His words were cut off with the uninterested blabber of Lilith.

"Blah, blah, don't start spouting such things after you willingly slaughtered the nearby city with that little gun of yours. You were telling me how much you liked raping the little girl from before, right? It was so entertaining seeing you smile like an idiot trying to prove you are strong when you only do is clinging to those who truly have the power."

Her fierce eyes that radiate danger, her long eyelashes, that hourgla.s.s body, and her presence that belongs to no ordinary women had captivated the hearts of many men. But in times such as this, she truly resembles that of a venomous snake.

Pryce was choking from anger after having his s.e.xual preference announced. He wanted to retort, but he was stopped.

"Try as you might, you will die here, you wh.o.r.e. We will kill you and rid the world of your presence."

One of the old men who were with the group stepped forward.

"Baldy, why don't you wear a cape and become a hero for fun? When push comes to shove you seem to like acting for the good of people when it suits your taste. You seemed to like my bribes you received three months ago.

"Also, stop calling me a wh.o.r.e. Despite how I look, I am still untouched. I killed the previous boss before he can do anything to me, after all. Well, you guys will also end up the same anyway; dying before you can do anything, that is!"

Without much pretense, she slammed the book adjacent to her, and every window around her was close shut.

With a smile, she looked at their panicked and confused expressions and whispered, "Explosion!"

After having said these words, one of the men had already moved to take her head. She had her head taken; what could she do? The enemy was mountains above her in terms of LVL and strength.

She was a schemer, not a fighter.

But for a few short moments, her brain still functioned and she got to witness the magnificent death of these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.

'They say that when you die, you still have a few short moments to hear and see what will happen around you. I guess they were wrong; this is far longer than a moment.'

The explosion, including Lilith herself, swallowed everyone in that room.

'Such a warm way to die.'

The bright red light of the flames swallowed her vision, but soon that red light transformed into a blue hue and was dragged into that light.

'What's happening?'

It was too bright. Forced to close her eyes, she was momentarily blinded — even though she was already dead.

After being pulled into the light, she began to feel annoyed as her skin was irritated by some kind of rough sand.

By the time she opened her eyes. She could see the full view of the sky. It was blue and there were clouds scattered about.

'Ugh, is this h.e.l.l?'

She stated as she rubbed her head with her fluffy and furry 'hand'.

'Furry?'

She looked at her 'hands' and her mouth opened wide. Her hands had become soft and fluffy paws of a white-furred beast with purple spots.

'What the h.e.l.l?'

She touched her face with her paws and confirmed that it too, did not belong to a human. Below, she felt something was moving; she could tell as if it was another limb connected to her.

'Don't tell me!'

Turning her head around, she found a seven-inch tail sticking out behind.

'Phew!' She felt relieved that it wasn't what she thought it was.

"These soft and paws, this cuddly fluffy hair, this cute tail — ah s.h.i.+t, did I become a beast after my death, or have I been dreaming of being human as a beast all this time? If it is the latter, that is one long and realistic dream."

[It's the former, you stupid b.i.t.c.h.]

Said a woman's voice from in her head.
