Chapter 1

Pain

That was all I was feeling at the moment. I had no idea a person could feel this much pain and still live.

[1 hour ago][3rd Pov]

A boy could be seen walking through an empty city. Although, it wouldn't usually be empty but because of the time which seemed to be really late into the night.

The boy seemed to be about fifteen years of age but was certainly taller then those of his age group. He had all black hair with a patch of white on the ride side of his head.

Another unique trait about the boy was his eyes, the boy had heterochromia iridis, meaning his eyes were different colored. His left eye consisted of a light purple or blue color while his left eye consisted of a wine red like color.

He walked aimlessly without a destination, either he was homeless and didn't have a home or he just chose to take a walk in the middle of the night.

But what he failed to realize was that a shadow seemed to follow him. The shadow was like a predator stalking its prey.

Soon enough the shadow had gotten tired of waiting and struck. Moving quickly the shadow appeared behind the boy and tried to hit him.

Without knowing what was happening the boy moved on instinct and jumped to the left as something almost hit him.

"W-what's going on!?" He panicked

"Haha, what good reflexes boy. I can sense that u didn't do it intentionally meaning that was on instinct"(Bullshit) the man that tried to hit the boy said.

"P-please sir don't hurt me, I haven't done anything wrong" the boy pleaded.

"Oh, but you have. You chose to roam the village at this time of night instead of being in your home sleeping" the man said smiling.

"Now, you will suffer the consequences of your actions."

The man then ran towards the boy who was still on the ground panicking or so he thought. As he got closer he felt something was wrong as if he just walked into the den of an apex predator.

The man soon found out why he felt that way. Looking at the boy the man saw a smile on his face and saw him taking something out of his clothes.

It was to late for the man to stop mid run and the boy took this chance as he took the sharp object out of his haori and slashed it at the man aiming for his neck.

Because of his experience over the years the man was able to block the blade with his hand to stop the fatal attack.

As the blade went through the mans hand he used his other to punch the boy in the stomach which made him double over and spit out saliva.

*Whistle*

"Come out boys. Seems we got a fighter" the man said taking the knife out of his hand.

Soon, the boy heard many footsteps as he saw several men come out of the shadows.

"Boy, I give you two choices. Surrender and be sold as a slave, or die here and now" the man said as his goons surrounded the boy.

*Sigh*"I surrender" the boy said standing up and putting his hands up.

"Boss, I thought you said he was a fighter" a random goon said.

"I thought he was to but it seems he smart enough to know that he can't win against us all"

The man then gestured for two of his goons to grab the boy. Waiting for the two to get in his attack range.

The boy moves quickly and grabbed two knives out of his haori before stabbing both men in the neck and then throwing the knives at two others closest to him.

"Sorry, but I don't feel like being sold as a slave at the moment, I would rather die." Said the boy taking out more knives.

"I should've known it wasn't going to be this easy." The man said as he took a weapon from one of his goons that was close by.

"Seems we'll lose profit today boys" the man said before gesturing his goons to attack.

'Seems this'll be the end but I'll try and take a couple down with me' the boy thought as they started fighting.

A couple of minutes later we could see the boy on the ground with cuts, bruises and knives sticking out of his body.

[Present][1st Pov]

The pain was unbearable. I wish I would just die right now but for some reason I'm clinging to life. There's nothing for me to live for.

I have no family, friends, pets, I have nothing. I was sold at birth, treated like a slave, was forced to kill people because they came after me.

.

.

.

I hate humans. A species who cares for no one but themselves. They only do things that benefit them whether it be killing or kidnapping or beating and selling kids. I hate them all.

Every person I have come across only tried to do one of two things. They either tried to capture and sell me or keep me as a slave and sometimes would just out right try and kill me.

As I'm in thought I fail to hear the person who started all of this speak.

[3rd Pov]

"You see what happens when you don't comply with people. You get hurt" the man said looking at at the boy laying on the ground.

Noticing the boy wasn't listening to him, the man approached the boy and brought his leg up before bringing it down on the boys stomach.

*Gahkk*

The boy had gained focus in his eyes as more pain assaulted his stomach.

"Still not listening even after all that's happened to you" The man said applying more pressure to the boys stomach.

"Hehe, you are one cowardly man you know. While all of your goons fought and died you sat back and watched" the boy spoke ignoring the pain.

"Haha, you are right boy I did just watch my men get slaughtered by a child, but here's where you're wrong I'm no coward, I'm just smart enough to know when I'm outmatched" The man said.

The boy took in what the man said and he was right. If he had subordinates and sent them to fight a child who slaughtered them he would also sit back until the child tires out or gets injured.

"Now since those knives didn't go to deep, I'm gonna chain you up get you treated and then sell you" the man said as he grab the boys cloth and started dragging him in a random direction.

"Also what's your name" The man turned his head but then felt a sharp pain in his neck.

Not registering what happened the man brought his hands up before his vision started to change as he caught his head in his hands.

The boy just stared at the new person that arrived. Long, spiky black hair with red tips. The man who appeared had intimidating aura around him and the six eyes that he had added on to the fear the boy had in him.

"Do you…want…to live?" A deep emotionless voice left the man…no the monsters mouth.

All of the fear in the boy had disappeared when he heard this. It was as if a miracle had come down upon him, but not in the form of a god, but the form of a 6 eyed demon.

"Yes" he immediately responded.

"Would…you do…anything to…live? Would you…become…anything to live?" The voice of the monster asked again.

"Yes, I'll do and become anything to live. Even if it means becoming a monster who won't enter the gates of heaven" the boy said.

"Well…I shall…grant…your wish" the monster said before appearing in front of the boy and putting his finger through his forehead.

"Wh-" The boy couldn't get his word out as a unbelievable amount of pain assaulted his body as it started to shake violently.

"Endure…the pain…survive…not only…will you…live…you shall…become…stronger" the monster said.

"Kokushibo…remember…this name…" the monster said before disappearing.

After the monster had left, the boys body shook for a few more seconds before coming to an abrupt stop.

The appearance of the boy didn't change that much accept for the fact that fissures appeared on the right side of his face and came down to his hands and a mark appeared at the center of his forehead, his complexion also became more pale.

Standing up the boy felt a bit weird as if he changed bodies and he wasn't used to it yet. His body felt light as if he didn't have any weight.

He felt taller and way stronger then before. As he was examining his body an overwhelming feeling of hunger assaulted him as the smell of blood hit his nose.

Looking around at the dead bodies, saliva started dripping from his mouth as a growling sound came from him.

Not being able to control the urge to feed on the bodies he rushed to the closest body to him and started to feast upon it.

Seconds later nothing was left of the body except the blood that dripped on the ground and the clothes the person.

The boy not feeling satisfied with just that feasted on the rest of the bodies, but even then it was as if his hunger didn't go down at all.

That night the small village which consisted of no more then a hundred people went down to zero as the boy cause mayhem through the village killing and eating every person he came across.

[The next day]

The village which would be bustling with people walking around chatting and hanging with their families and neighbors became desolate over night.

The only thing in the village was the dried up blood stains of the people.

The boy now a demon who cause all of this could be seen covered in blood of the people he ate, laying on the floor sleep before waking up.

He stood up and then remembered what happened last night.

"Kokushibo…that was the name of the man who gave me another chance in life" the boy said.

"Kusaru, shall be my new name from this day forward" he said proudly.
