A dark midnight sky, a peaceful village in the middle of the forest, and a silent atmosphere. Satoshi watched the fire crackle in the clay fireplace. Sitting on the wooden floor, he heard a strange noise from the distance. He ran towards the window, seeing a purple glow in the forest. A curious child he is, he went outside to approach the source of the light. A woman in a silk dress, whose purple hair flowed elegantly, was walking in the forest. She emitted the purple glow, attracting Satoshi to approach her. The woman, feeling the presence, turned around to see the child. Satoshi immediately hid under a large tree's root as he saw that he was found. "Don't worry child. I won't hurt you. I'm just looking for a champion." She said, smiling at him. She then reached out her hand, "What's your name?"
"Satoshi...Nishikino Satoshi....," becoming less afraid, he slowly stood up, then took her hand. "Nice to meet you, Nishikino," She said with a smile. "My name's Phoebe."

Rage because they were ruining my time with my mates, rage because they were messing up my really peaceful life as Satan's daughter, and rage because they were hurting people around me. All I saw was red, and before I knew it, my horns and tail were sprouting. It hurt like f*cking hell. During that, somehow the ground had started opening up because of me. I didn't know what I was doing but it was happening. There were flames coming from the cracks on the ground, and I recognized them as hellfire. "Hell's nature wants you to use its power," said Dimona, shocked. My eyes widened. Hellfire was extremely deadly. Any living thing that touches it dies.

I wanted to put an end to this madness. The flames rose even higher and before I knew it, they were hurling towards me."Complete

The stranger under the willow tree
On a frigid and blustery October evening, the radiant moon cast its glow upon a solitary willow tree, perched atop a hill. Beneath the tree sat a mysterious man, clutching a large, worn storybook. Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to a child, no more than 10 to 13 years old, wandering aimlessly nearby. With a welcoming gesture, the man motioned the child over to him. "Why are you out here all alone on such a freezing night?" he inquired with concern. The child merely shrugged in response. The man sighed and reached out his hand, offering it to the shivering youngster.

"Well then, let's dive into some tales, shall we?"Complete
