21 | Satori Yasaki, the Magic Government Executioner

Satori Yasaki.

The person to take head of the Yasaki family, which managed the Magic Government.

He wasn't prepared.

Satori didn't have anyone to take his place if he were to die.

His mother decided to take Satori to many places in Japan, trying to find a suitable wife for the boy.

Yes, Satori was only 9.

After being born in the largest magic family in Kyoto, Satori didn't have much peace.

His mother, Sankarea Yasaki, had always treated her own son like he was some stranger.

Satori did as well notice that at a young age.

He decided to ignore his mother's feelings of him, since he had salvation at his school.

Yes, he had only one friend.

That one friend called him Satou, which he didn't expect the nickname to stick with him for his whole life.

Then, he was forced to move to Akihabara since the Sakurada family needed help from the Yasaki's.

They only needed help since the family had lack of profit since they couldn't get people working for the Magic Government.

Sankarea had suggested Satou marry Mimmy Sakurada.

Being only 11 years old, Satou declined.

He didn't even meet the Sakurada, he didn't want to develop feelings at such a young age.

Satou stayed isolated to the Sakurada fanily, not wanting to go outside or to school.

Sankarea then announced to the 13 year old that they were going to move back to Kyoto to manage the Magic Government.

Satou then managed the government for a month.

That was the most horrible month Satou had.

Satou was ordered by his mother to be an executioner, meaning Satou had to kill whoever was sentenced to death.

It was horrible, and according to his mother, Satou had killed 109 people.

As Satou reached his 23rd person, he couldn't do it anymore.

He begged his mother to give the Yasaki a different job.

Satou did not like killing people, especially on demand.

Sankarea had enough of her son's behavior and told him one thing.

"It's either kill or be killed, Satori."

Satou kept those words in mind and continued his job as an executioner.

He eventually broke after the month ended.

"Satori, this is Guren Yuuki. He will be working a soldier for our army. Train him."

With his mother's demand, he couldn't refuse.

Guren was three years older than the Yasaki, and he looked a bit like most of the Yasaki family.

"I'm Guren Yuuki. You?"

Satou didn't want to respond and tossed Guren a sword.

"Um, excuse me?"

"Train by yourself, prick."

Guren glared at the Yasaki and picked up the sword.

"Is the Magic Government really this mean?" Guren questioned.
