Chapter 1: A Life Unraveled

Notice to Readers

Dear Readers,

I want to thank you for giving my story a chance, but I have an important message to share. After much reflection, I’ve realized that this story is far from what I hoped it would be. As a new and inexperienced writer, I made many mistakes in this book.

To grow and improve, I’ve decided to start fresh with a new book that reflects the lessons I’ve learned and the research I’ve done to create a better experience for you. I invite you to check out my latest work:

New Book: THE FALLEN HERO

This new story is the beginning of a journey where I aim to craft a world and characters that you can truly connect with. I’m excited for you to explore it and share your thoughts.

Thank you for your understanding and support as I continue to grow as a writer.

Warm regards,
[ @DJ_SIDDIQUI ]

Satsuriku no Tenshi trudged through his days, burdened by a weight only he could feel. Life in the mundane world had long since dulled. His dreams, once vibrant and full of possibility, were now little more than a pile of ashes. Every morning, he woke with the same gnawing question: Why bother?

The darkness within him wasn't just a passing feeling; it was a constant companion, a shadow that grew deeper each day. It taunted him, filling his thoughts with unrelenting self-doubt. You're nothing. You've accomplished nothing. No one would even miss you.

It was a haunting mantra, one he had repeated so often it had become the truth he believed. He found himself musing bitterly, If I disappeared... would anyone even care? The thought was familiar, almost comforting in its bleakness. For him, it felt like a certainty-a silent acceptance of his own insignificance.

Then, on a day like any other, the world shifted.

Satsuriku was walking through the crowded city streets, lost in the haze of his thoughts. People bustled around him, laughing, talking, living-each one seemingly unaware of the silent battle raging within him. The air was thick with the scent of exhaust, and the sounds of distant laughter echoed like a cruel reminder of a world that had moved on without him.

And then it happened.

A high-pitched, gut-wrenching screech shattered his trance. Tires skidding, a blaring horn. It was as if time itself slowed, stretching the moment out, forcing him to take in every detail. He turned, his eyes catching sight of a truck barreling down the street. In its path stood a young girl, frozen, her eyes wide with terror as the massive vehicle bore down on her.

In that instant, something awakened within him-an impulse, a raw and unfiltered drive. Without thinking, without even understanding why, Satsuriku surged forward, his body moving with a purpose he hadn't felt in years. All his pain, his failures, his darkness-they melted away. In that moment, he wanted only one thing: to save her.

He pushed her out of the truck's path, feeling her small, fragile body stumble away from the danger. Relief, fleeting as it was, passed through him like a wave. But before he could fully process it, a wall of pain struck him. The impact was overwhelming, blinding, and in the blink of an eye, his world faded to nothing.

The Void

In the darkness, Satsuriku floated, detached from everything he had ever known. He thought this was the end, that he would finally be free from the burdens he had carried. Yet, as he waited for oblivion, something unexpected appeared.
