My name is Sasaki Rin, a previously third-year student. Living in the crowded city of Tokyo. Schooling in the day and working at night. I do have friends but I rarely go out with them to hang out. I thought it was a waste of money. I worked my hardest so that I could go to a proper university after I graduated in the third year.Day by day, things are the same. Spring, summer, fall, and winter. One year could loop around and nothing significant is truly happening in my life. I felt like I was some kind of side character in a story.I sigh upon realizing.Passing by a theater in the shopping mall. I turned my head toward a movie poster. Staring at the actors and actresses who seemed to be of the same age as me.They are so lucky in life… Pretty faces, people like them, and more importantly, they have goals fulfilled in life already. Their life has direction. Only a few people were able to live in a dream. I’m sure I’m not one of them.Comparing myself to them is unhealthy for my mental

Memory link…Memories of Belle were channeled into my vision by watching them like some sort of movie. Sad memories of her childhood. The loneliness, trauma, and crime. Most importantly, the love she lost.My vision got watery and feelings ran through my heart. Heavy feelings are enough to make someone dragged into insanity for hundreds of years.Belle is waiting for Rin, believing that he will come back. She had already lost the sense of time and didn’t even remember how she died. Right now, that isn’t important.Belle is continuously crying, tears continue to flow endlessly. Big tears she tried to wipe the gushes out.With the help of her levitation ability. She made me float and gave me a proper landing on the floor.“I remember everything… Rin… Everything that happened in the past. The people I killed all of them... There is no way of saving me.”Belle murmured.I’m puzzled about what I’m supposed to do. I don’t even know if she is on the good side or the evil side. Her actions ar

“Fuwwaaaa~”I released a satisfying sound as I dipped myself in the perfectly warm water of a hot spring.I’m back in Crimonia city to take a break from all the stress I’ve been suffering these past days. The best way to relax is to indulge myself on a hot spring trip.Shaymi has never been in one before. A hot spring trip would be a great experience for her.Currently shaking in fear. Shaymi looked at me with eyes about to cry.“Is this okay, Konoha? Am I going to be boiled?”“Don’t worry, it's not that hot… Dip your toe little by little and before you know it you’re gonna feel your body in heaven.”Her eyes were telling that she trusted me. She dipped her toe first. Followed by her body little by little.“See? It's not that hot, right?”“The temperature is just perfect… My body feels like melting… Waaa…”Shaymi is beginning to understand how great the hot spring was.From my recollected memories, I remember that I often visited a hot spring before. Looking at my reflection. I’m alwa

Shaymi was immediately thrown inside a huge carriage. Her hands and feet were tied. Her mouth was covered with silk. Frightful, Shaymi turned her glance toward the kidnappers.“Ho… Ho… Ho… We have got plenty of great deals between us. We have got a rare girl with holy magic and plenty of beastmen children. Selling them, we’re going to be extremely rich… Finally, I won’t be playing with those silly puppets on the streets.”The spider monster said.“This is all because of me… I demand a high share of the money.”The old drunk man said as he chugged down a bottle of liquor.Shaymi has her pupils gotten little seeing the old drunk man. Because this old man is the same man she just helped moments ago. Her kindness was replaced by evil deeds.Did I help the wrong person?Shaymi thought, looking at the old man.“You’re being so demanding of a human.”The spider said.“What are you… Urggg…”Silk embraced the old man’s neck. Steadily constricting down. The drunk man struggles with his life. He

According to statistics, there are about 200 beast-men living in Oise village. Most of them are fox-eared beasts and men. Just thinking about it got me excited. I can already feel their soft tails rubbing on my cheeks.Just like the map said, there was an open space in the mountain forest, and there was a settlement there.All of the buildings that stood next to each other were made of wood. There are fields that spread around the village, and it looks like they can live a self-sufficient life.Silhouettes could be seen here and there, and their tails can be seen even far away.“We can see Oise village.”My desire heightened.“Is this the tribe of your previous comrade?”“I’m sure about it.”This is the only beaten tribe of men on the whole demon continent. There are said to be other settlements, but that wasn’t specified on the map.Looking at the fox-eared beast… I started to remember Cake and her siblings. Bittersweet feelings immediately enveloped my heart. No matter how long it p
