Perfect Avatar-Chapter 287: An Angel In Hell

No one remembers when it happened, or where exactly it happened. Today, the only unit for measuring a period of history known as the Ancient Era is a cataclysm popularly known as the Twilight of the Gods.

A thousand years ago, the first catastrophe struck the world and wiped out almost the entire ancient era. Monsters of various types, alongside a new form of life, players have roamed the earth and brought an end to nations around the world.

It is said that at this time, humanity reached its technological peak, with the use of weapons on a continental scale, capable of wiping out a civilization in less than a minute, but the consequences of their use prohibited humans to use them, but as they lost land, they resorted to their weapons of destruction and wiped out more of their history.

However, the mass genocide only lasted about two years. It is said that the Rift has closed and the players have disappeared one by one.

Some knew more, others decided to hide their fate, but it was common knowledge that the Players were still there, so humanity began its road towards armament, but with a very small number of emissaries, the majority having were killed during the apocalypse.

Years later, civilization began its rebuilding, a slow rebirth into an empty world, and in this world, in a random part of the world, with no particular history, a girl was able to see the outside world for the first time.

She was not noble, not even from a good family, she was the only daughter of 2 miserable peasants from the most pathetic village in a region among the others.

She could be as invisible as the wind, but the gods had entrusted her with a destiny of wonders.

She was the cutest girl in the village, so cute that her parents were often accused of kidnapping her, in simple jokes, but far from being offended, they were proud of her, because they could use her for ask for food.

At the age of 11, an event changed his life. She was greedy and natural, her body demanding a lot of resources from her every day, without waiting for her to develop them.

She was taller than all the other children her age and terribly thin, but her beauty increased with time. This gave her the title of little Diva, a true treasure for the village, but the more she grew, the more her body demanded resources, and begging for food was no longer as effective as before because the peasants got tired of sharing their food for nothing, and this nothing would be the door to his second trauma.

"I can’t keep feeding your family forever, how can you share a loaf of bread and a cup of milk with 2 people? Well, whatever, what I’m saying is if you could give me something in return, I could change my mind."

These are the words of a peasant who saw her growing up from birth. The little girl, terrified by the change in her outlook, but also in the outlook of everyone else, decided to isolate herself from everyone.

Without her, her family could no longer eat and would go days without anything to fill their stomachs, but the girl’s hunger continued to grow, devouring her resources until she became a twig, but one day, when her parents decided to marry her to one of the healthiest men in the village, she completely broke down.

"Why don’t you do something for your parents?"

"Don’t you understand? It’s for your own good too, stop being so annoying!"

They joined forces to send her to the man, but as she reached inside his door, she saw a table rich with all kinds of food.

The witness claimed that the girl became like a statue for a moment, looking at the food, it seemed like she would easily cooperate, however... the girl opened her mouth and a red vapor appeared.

[Quest for consumption: consumes more than necessary to satisfy oneself | Reward: 2 exp - 1 soul stone]

She threw off her parents with incredible strength and jumped onto the table. In less than 5 minutes, she devoured the entire food, bones included.

It was as if the food disappeared before it touched her mouth. She ate to the point of biting the table, leaving a terrifying mark on the furniture.

The man she was supposed to marry tried to get her off the table when she started eating a spoon, but all it took was a flick of her hand to send him flying.

"What kind of monster is this? Get her out of my house!!!"

The parents left empty-handed, but none of them were angry. They understood why their daughter was so different from other children, and this discovery was the promise of a glorious future: she was an emissary.

"The emissaries must train every day, then they will be asked for work and they will be paid! You are such a wonderful girl!"

They praised her for the first time in ages, and with all their hope in her. Emissaries were actively sought in the kingdom, and families with emissaries would be supported by their blessed members.

For the girl it was a new experience, she was not used to anything in the world. She was taught that she had to beg, then learned that this would cause people to look at her with worrying eyes, she was about to be offered to a man, then the very one who sent her into this hell praised her for her resistance.

Eventually, she got used to this strange power appearing out of nowhere. A system screen giving her a task to complete, but the consequences were the more disturbing details.

If she decided not to complete the tasks, her body would consume its resources; if she did, she would be instantly full, even if the task did not involve eating.

Time passed and thanks to this system, she never felt hungry again and she could feel her power increasing.

She joined an Emissary Association at the age of 12, as the strongest E-Rank in ages. She was a marvel, using all types of skills without restriction and considered a genius.

She becomes the object of attention, arouses praise and envy, but one day, she has an encounter that will change her life.

Alone in an alley, she found herself face to face with a strange individual. Covered in a black veil, the woman held out her hand to the girl and curtsied.

"I really wanted to meet you, my lady, meeting you here was not a miracle, but God did it."

"W-who are you?" How do you know my system?

The woman stood up, appearing as an old woman dressed in rags.

"I’m just a person with no history, to some I’m weak, to others I’m just a bad memory, and to you, I’ll be what you need most to break through to superior ranks. You can call me... Charybdis."
