The Villain's Story

From the beginning of his memories, he was alone.

Always, always alone.

He didn’t remember having any family.

No parents, No siblings, no relatives at all.

An orphan without anything.

In his days at the orphanage, no one ever wanted to play with him.

All the children, whether they were younger or older…were all afraid of him.

Because of his black void-like eyes.

No one ever wanted to do anything with him.

Just the Aura he exuded made everyone afraid of him.

He always just watched the other kids play from far away.

Whether he was alone on the swings, alone on a bench, or even the only one left in the Park.

No one wanted anything to do with him.

He didn’t even know his actual name.

His black hair, void-like eyes, and average face were everything that he saw in the mirror.

They just gave him a name.

No one knew where he came from.

The orphanage just gave him a name, and he didn’t know if it was his or not.

Creep.

Why do you think like that?

He wondered why they labeled him as such, he never even interacted with anybody, he just watched from a distance because they hated him near them.

Always alone, even playing by himself never went as planned.

All the vegetation, all the leaves of trees, all the branches…all the beautiful flowers…just wilted when he touched them.

He didn’t know who his mother or father even was.

No one, no one was by his side.

This was the situation until…one awakened girl came and played him.

Her green hair, her emerald eyes, and her kind demeanor enchanted him.

She was the only one who wanted to play with him, and…he fell for that kindness.

Those kind eyes, that playful smile…no one ever looked at him like that.

Hate and disgust were all he knew.

He began to enjoy his life a little bit after meeting her.

Although she was a lot older than him, he never cared.

He just had a friend who played with him.

And she gave him a name.

A proper name, not one that was foolish like Creep.

Shimoshino Kazikato.

He didn’t know what they meant, but he just accepted it.

He finally had a name.

And he liked it.

His friend gave him that name.

He loved it.

He, who didn’t have a name, now had one.

He didn’t care about what it meant, even if it meant nothing, he was glad to have it.

He would cherish it.

His previously lonely days were now long gone.

He…for the first time in his life, had a smile on his face.

A smile that didn’t last for a long time.

***

He screamed for help.

Black energy, the mana of the element of death surrounded him.

The mana of death was encased in a barrier of green light, erected by the woman who was trying her best to help him.

Why…did I have to awaken?

Awaken now, when I was only now happy?

Why must you take it from me?

His screams of pain were heard only by the woman, who was draining her mana to contain his awakening.

But…then the elements of Darkness and Shadow began to emerge.

And completely destroyed the woman’s barriers.

The outburst of mana sent her flying…and he saw messages he would always remember.

[Congratulations on your awakening]

[Heart of ‘Shi’* has been detected inside of you.]

[I greet the son of Shi, the deceased Supreme dragon of Death.]

[The chains that once bound Shi have been transferred to you.]

[Heart of Shi rejects the chains.]

[Rejection failed.]

[Warning, Mana unstable]

[The chains conceal your presence from The ********** ]

[*********** has failed to notice your existence]

[Mana stabilization has begun.]

And then, his body began to change.

An armor of bone enveloped his figure, it resembled that of a humanoid reptile

A half-dragon, a cursed dragon.

He tried to run, away from her, he ran and ran but she gave chase.

He didn’t want to hurt her.

But she wanted to save him.

And she continued to give chase.

And they ended up on the two islands that would soon symbolize their respective elements.

Death and Life.

***

On the small island that was filled with vegetation and housed a cottage.

An old woman stepped outside the cottage.

Her green hair glistened under the sun.

But all that greeted her eyes would be the black waters. .𝘤𝘰

She regretted it.

She regretted the fact that she wasn’t strong enough to save him.

To save the child that had the same childhood as her. One where he received hate, one where he was alone, and abandoned, and one where he had no one.

So similar to hers, and this was the reason she bonded with him.

She didnt want him to experience the same pain as her.

Jinsei Hana sighed as she stares at her wrinkled hands.

She had aged so much in such a small amount of time.

All because she was overexerting herself.

She still didn’t give up.

She wouldn’t.

She would never give up on the boy that she considered a son.

He was suffering, and she could only want helplessly stop the spread of the influence of death on the surroundings.

How many years had it been?

Only one or two, yet how brave he was.

To still be resisting.

To still be fighting.

And although she knew he couldn’t hear him, she still prayed for his victory.

I will stop its influence, so keep fighting and win.

Keep fighting, don’t give up.

And win.

Kazikato.
