Zero Point: The Immortal's Rebirth
ARC I - The Cursed of Eternity
December 31, 2036 – Château de Chillon, Montreux, Switzerland
His father, Kenji, checked his watch, sighing as he looked toward the direction his son had run off in earlier.
Kenji Fujiwara
(Shaking his head, arms crossed) "Damn, that kid’s taking forever. What the hell is he even doing?
Yuika Fujiwara
(Softly, concerned) "Hon, what’s he up to? He just ran off out of nowhere.
Kenji Fujiwara
*Kenji chuckled, shrugging off her concern.*
Kenji Fujiwara
(Grinning) "Ah, he’s just taking some pictures or something. Kid loves exploring, you know how he is. I just hope he doesn’t get lost in the damn forest.
Yuki Fujiwara(18 years old)
*Yuki, sitting on a rock nearby, laughed lightly, her legs swinging as she kicked some of the snow off her boots.*
Yuki Fujiwara(18 years old)
(Grinning, full of confidence) "Nah, no way he’s getting lost. He’s my big brother, after all.
Yuika Fujiwara
*Yuika smiled at her daughter’s unwavering trust.*
Yuika Fujiwara
(Gently teasing, brushing Yuki’s hair aside) "You really love your big brother, don’t you?"
Yuki Fujiwara(18 years old)
*Yuki’s face flushed slightly, and she quickly turned her head away, muttering under her breath.*
Yuki Fujiwara(18 years old)
Isn’t that obvious…?
The conversation drifted off as they waited.
Meanwhile, Kenzo, unaware of their concerns, had his eyes locked onto something else.
Kenzo stood before the castle, its massive, decaying stone walls looming over him like a silent guardian of time.
The architecture was ancient, a relic of the past, weathered by centuries of existence. The moment he laid eyes on it, a strange feeling settled deep in his chest.
Something about this place felt… wrong.
And yet—he was drawn to it.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Muttering to himself, fascinated) "Damn… this thing is massive. Old as hell too… and kinda creepy.
Despite the unsettling aura that radiated from the abandoned structure, his curiosity overpowered his hesitation.
Inside, the air was stale and freezing, an unnatural cold that didn’t feel like the winter air outside.
The wooden beams overhead creaked, as if the castle was alive, breathing with the weight of history. Dust covered every inch of the floors and walls, and an eerie silence hung heavy in the air.
Kenzo’s footsteps echoed as he walked deeper inside.
At first, he found old furniture, medieval weapons, and torn tapestries. He imagined the kind of stories this place held—knights, kings, warlords—people who had once lived and died here.
Then, his gaze fell upon something unexpected.
Scattered human remains lay across the stone floor, brittle and long forgotten.
Kenzo froze, his heart skipping a beat.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Taking a step back, gripping his coat tightly) "Damn… human bones?
His breath came out shaky as he crouched down, studying the remains.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
Were these recent? No, they looked too old.
His logical mind tried to explain away the unease creeping up his spine.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Exhaling, forcing a chuckle) "Okay… yeah, that’s normal. Just some bones. Probably ancient. Nothing to freak out about."
Still, he felt like he was being watched.
Pushing through the halls, Kenzo eventually found himself in a massive chamber—what looked like the royal bedroom.
The room was lavish despite its decay, the large canopy bed still standing, though the fabric had long since withered away.
A massive ornate mirror stood against the wall, its surface slightly cracked. The reflection it gave off seemed… distorted.
Kenzo felt uneasy, yet at the same time, his curiosity pushed him forward.
His eyes widened in alarm.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Cursing under his breath, turning around quickly) "Oh, shit! I’ve been here too long—I need to go back!
And stopped dead in his tracks.
Kenzo’s heart slammed against his ribs.
His breathing grew shallow.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
I had just come through this door that supposed to be here....
A suffocating sense of wrongness filled his chest.
Then—he noticed something.
A door that shouldn’t be there.
It stood perfectly intact, as if it had been waiting for him all along.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*Kenzo’s gut screamed at him.*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Something wasn’t right.)
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Voice barely above a whisper, narrowing his eyes) "…Was that always there?
A lump formed in his throat.
The air in the room felt heavier.
But what choice did he have?
Shaking off his growing fear, he reached for the handle.
The moment the door opened, a force beyond comprehension exploded from within.
A void of absolute darkness swallowed the room whole, pulling Kenzo inside.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*His breath hitched, his body stiffening with sheer terror.*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Panicked, stepping back) "What the hell—?!
The air turned suffocating, thick with an unholy presence.
For the first time in his life, Kenzo felt true, primal fear.
Everything around him vanished.
All that remained was the black abyss stretching endlessly in every direction.
Then, ahead of him—a single door remained, bathed in dim, eerie light.
The only visible thing in the void.
Kenzo’s pulse pounded in his ears.
Yet, something called to him.
Kenzo stepped through the lone doorway, and instantly, the world ceased to exist.
A hollow, eerie silence filled the space.
Kenzo’s pulse quickened, his instincts screaming at him to turn back.
But when he glanced behind him—
His throat tightened, but he forced himself to breathe.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Muttering to himself, steadying his nerves) "Okay… stay calm. There’s gotta be a way out of this.
Powerful. Overwhelming. Beyond human comprehension.
And then, from the void—a voice emerged.
Deep. Smooth. Dripping with malice.
？？？
Oh? And what do we have here?
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*Kenzo spun around, his breath catching in his throat.*
A throne of black stone rose from the void, as if it had always been there.
Sitting upon it was a man—or rather, something wearing the form of one.
His midnight-black wings stretched wide, their feathers darker than the abyss itself. His curved horns gleamed under an invisible light, and his crimson eyes glowed with a sinister amusement.
A devilish grin spread across his face, revealing sharp, predatory teeth.
His very presence was wrong, as if the air itself bent to accommodate his existence.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*Kenzo’s body refused to move.*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*His heart pounded so hard it hurt.*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Gritting his teeth, trying to sound unaffected) "I—I got lost. I was just trying to leave.
？？？
Smirk widened, his sharp eyes narrowing.
？？？
(Mocking amusement) "Lost, you say? What a poor little lamb you are."
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*Kenzo clenched his fists*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Stiffening, narrowing his eyes) "Who… are you?
The devil placed a hand to his chest, his voice turning silky smooth.
？？？
(Smirking, bowing slightly) "Ah, where are my manners?

Lucifer
*Lucifer chuckled, stepping closer.*
Lucifer
(Teasing, tilting his head) "What’s wrong? I expected more of a reaction. Humans are usually on their knees by now.
Lucifer
*Lucifer’s voice—now devoid of amusement—rumbled like a storm.*
Lucifer
(Cold, commanding) "Kneel before me!.
The crushing weight of an unseen force slammed onto Kenzo’s body.
His knees buckled instantly, crashing against the blackened ground with a sickening force.
A burning, suffocating power wrapped around him, forcing him to bow.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)

*Kenzo’s breath was ragged, his vision spinning from the overwhelming pressure.*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
(Gritting his teeth, defiant despite the agony) "…Screw you.
A deep, chilling, menacing laughter that echoed through the void.
Lucifer
(Grinning, eyes flashing with sadistic delight) "Oh… I like you.
Kenzo barely had time to react before Lucifer’s hand grasped his forehead.
A searing pain exploded through his skull.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
ARGHH-
Lucifer
*Lucifer raised his other hand.*
A black sphere, swirling with abyssal energy, manifested in his palm.
It pulsed with something ancient, something vile.
Lucifer
*Lucifer’s grin stretched unnaturally wide.*
Lucifer
(Whispering with cruel glee) "I will grant you something eternal
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
*Kenzo’s body convulsed, his vision flickering as dark tendrils coiled around him.*
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
STO-
Lucifer
*Lucifer forced the black sphere into Kenzo’s mouth.*
Agony unlike anything he had ever felt surged through his body.
His mind shattered, his soul burned, his body twisted in pain.
Kenzo Fujiwara(23 year's old)
ARGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
The void consumes Kenzo mind and he blackout
