Chapter 8

While the man was cradling his daughter, he thought back to the scene he had seen earlier.

Whiles he was hiding in this small house in total silence, afraid the titans would hear him, he witnessed someone come out of fin air in the sky like a god and kill titans.

but not just titans also humans. This was the real reason he didn't want to leave his home.

The titans are scary, but that man, he was an even bigger monster, ruthlessly killing children, and babies all while having a smirk on his face.

How cruel can one be to do such inhumane acts while smiling?

Because of this, he didn't dare to peer through the windows again, nor did he even think of going outside again.

But while this man was sitting in the corner of the room, cradling his daughter, he heard a knock on the door.

'A person?!' The man thought.

'No, thats impossible, how could someone calmly knock on the door at this time?!'

'C-Could it be him?!' With this thought, his pupils shrunk.

Without being given the chance to answer the door, he heard a voice.

"You know, if you don't answer the door then I'll knock even louder, and once I do that, the fate of you and your daughter will already be decided." A calm, sinister voice spoke.

"And if you fear opening the door that much then, you should know what I'm capable of. So why do you think a mere door will be able to stop me?"

Hearing the childish yet sinister voice speak, the man was shocked.

After all, the voice is very immature, meaning the person behind it must be much younger than he thought.

"I-If I open the door will you promise not to harm my daughter?!" The man spoke while stuttering.

"I can't promise anything...."

Hearing this, the man shrunk back into the corner.

"Heh, I'm joking, what do I get by killing your daughter? I can't explain my previous actions, I can only say that I too have my circumstances."

Hearing the young boy talk, the man still didn't want to open the door, but what could he do?

The more they talk, the higher the chances of the titans catching them.

With this in mind, the man put his daughter on a soft blanket on the floor and began to walk towards the door.

Holding the door handle, the man froze for a couple of seconds, then unlocked it.

Once he unlocked the door, he walked back towards his daughter, and sat there, eyes glued onto the door.

A couple seconds past and the door opened.

Walked in was a youth, who looked to be 11-12 years old, with long tied up silver hair that reached his lower back; golden eyes that seemed to carry no life, and a katana.

Even though his eyes held no emotion, like he wasn't a living being, his face held a smirk showing off his pearl white teeth.

Walking in, the boy put his katana into his sheath and then sat down cross-legged.

"I'm happy you decided to let me in, because if you hadn't there would have been consequences." The boy said smiling.

Hearing the boy, the man asked. "Consequences? What consequences?" Maybe it was because the 'mysterious killer' was a little boy; the man gained a little bit of confidence, of course this didn't mean he wasn't scared.

"Simple." The boy's smile disappeared and was instead replaced by a bloodthirsty smirk. "I would have ripped your daughters head off right in front of you and then shove her fucking corpse down your throat." As he said this, an aura, full of malicious came out of him, pressuring the man.

Hearing this, the man was once again reminded, that just because this thing in front of him had the body of a cute adorable child, didn't mean he was kind.

No, he was far from it; instead he was a ruthless monster, that seemed to hold no value for human life.

But while Kira let out his killing intent on the man, a voice began to sound, making the previous quiet surrounding louder.

It seemed Kira's aura scared the little girl, and because of this she woke up and began to cry.

The man tried to quiet down his daughter, but failed horribly.

"Please, honey you have to stop crying, if no-" While the man tried to calm down his daughter, he was interrupted.

The entire house shook, as nearby titans began to flock towards the house.

"Heh, how amusing. This is why I dislike children." Standing up, Kira spoke as he drew his sword. "They never know when to shut up."

"NO! Don't kill my daughter...PLEASE!" The man shouted.

Seeing this, Kira's eyebrows lifted up.

"Old man, I wasn't going to do that anyways, I'm merely going to go and handle the titans outside...unless you don't want me to?"

Hearing this, the man instantly got on his knees and spoke. "Please, please, kill those titans I beg of you I'll do anything, I'll become your slave just please save my daughter." The mans spoke as tears began to form in his eyes.

Looking at such a scene, Kira smirked, got down to the man's level, and lifted up his chin.

"You know, you shouldn't make promises you won't keep."

"No! No matter what you wish for me to do I'll do it!"

"Even if it means throwing away your humanity and becoming a demon?"

Hearing what Kira said, the man froze in shock; could he really do that? Throw away his humanity? Become a demon?

But when he looked at his daughter, his eyes began to fill with determination.

"Yes! Even if it means becoming a demon." For his daughter, he'll throw away his humanity without regret.
