Demon STAR WOLF
CHAPTER THREE
"Yeah, you're right. I'm an idiot. I shouldn't have bothered sticking my nose into things that didn't concern me."
The young man let out a bitter laugh.
"Aww, want to tell me what happened?" the entity asked.
"Yeah, sure. Why not?"
The young man shifted against the ground, his expression twisting with anger.
"I wanted to stop the son of King—King… whatever his name was."
He paused, then scoffed.
"Can you imagine that? Less than a month since this whole mess began, and someone has already decided to call himself a king. A fucking king!"
He shook his head in disbelief.
"Anyway, that's beside the point. The bastard was molesting a girl I know, so I stepped in. I hit the fucker, and he fell so easily. Like an empty shell!"
A bitter laugh escaped his throat.
"Hahaha! For a moment, I actually thought I'd done something impressive. Then, before I knew it, I was pinned to the ground by the Awakeners surrounding him."
His expression darkened.
"Damn, those Awakeners are frigging strong."
He clenched his fists, his fingernails digging into his palms.
"But that wasn't even the worst part."
His voice trembled with rage.
"That bastard of a prince ordered the bitch to gouge out my eyes."
He swallowed hard.
"And she did it."
For a moment, he said nothing.
"She hesitated. I could tell she didn't want to do it at first. But she still did it in the end."
His lips curled into a bitter smile.
"She wanted to live. I understand that. Really, I do."
His fists tightened.
"But that doesn't mean I'm not fucking angry!"
His voice rose until it echoed through the ruins.
"I'm so fucking angry!"
The entity remained quiet for a moment.
Then it asked, "Okay. So, what's your name?"
The young man went completely still.
"…What?"
"Your name."
"My name?!"
He nearly choked on his own disbelief.
"After everything I just told you, that's what you want to ask me?!"
"Well, I was being sarcastic when I asked you to tell me what happened," the entity replied casually.
Silence.
The young man's mouth fell open.
"You—"
He stopped, apparently struggling to find an insult adequate enough for the situation.
"You absolute piece of—"
"Your name," the entity repeated impatiently.
The young man took a deep breath.
Then another.
"My name is—"David
My names is David. What about you what's your name? David asked
