[Do you, by any chance? remember the naphthalene balls which were melting inside the urinal you were urinating?]

"Eh... Why would I?... I'm not crazy as Jonathan to count the balls every day... Lol actually no one does that"

[Ah... Thank you for replying... But you see... one of those balls... WAS MY FRIGGIN' LIFE CORE!!]

"...."

.....

[Yeah, Go mute at that... If you didn't, then it would've been just another one of those shocks you provided to me minutes ago... and I would've killed myself because my heart couldn't handle more of the cunning side of yours...]

"....."

[Where's that genius mouth of yours now?]

"... It got shut"

Jin eventually replied.

He walked towards the destroyed center and settled his bottom on a partially demolished stone slab.

[Hm?]

"My mouth got shut... It got shut coz what I just heard was something so stupid that I almost wished that I got caught by the baldy lying there"

[What do you mean??]

"The fuck do you mean by that you ask?... WHO IN THE RIGHT MIND WOULD KEEP THEIR LIFE CORE INSIDE A MOTHER FUC... LOVING URINAL??"

Jin shouted to the demon lord and to the spycam above him which persisted to spy him from the skies.

[Haizz... I know... Even though it was stupid of me... I didn't know what to do at that time. You can think pretty well can't you brat??. Then think about this as well]

"....."

[Who in the right mind would take their time finding a cozy bed when they are being chased by fucking angels?]

"Wait!. You are on the run too??... Hey, talk about coincidence... Nah, wait... Isn't it because of you that I'm on the run as well?"

[Ah... Yeah, you are... That was why I asked you to find the strongest man in this world so that I could swap bodies with him. He wouldn't have any problem in dealing with the Angels or the Hunters]

"... Like he's going to give you his body... but wouldn't gaining control over the strongest man in the world make you close to invincible?... Why do you think that I would do that for you?"

[Because aren't humans like that?. Aren't humans selfish?. One would put the blames on others so that he could live a peaceful life. Aren't humans the embodiment of sins?]

"You are correct. But all of us humans aren't like you think. Now that I've heard your plan, there's no way I'm taking you to meet Ezariel Garcia"

[Ah Hahaha... I've been trying to say the same thing to you. I think I would rather stay within you than take a risk and reach him. I believe you can overtake his strength in a matter of time]

"Oh?... Is that so?. Thank you for the compliment I guess?... But why do you think I have a chance at shooting for the very top of this world?"

[Ah That... Even though I'm the Demon Lord, The Supreme Existence among the demons... for the first time in my life... I felt sorry for a human. For you. I felt that because of me the potential you carry might be impeded.]

"..."

[But as I saw you fight and strategize, it reminded me of my time in the death field, trying to save my demon kin from the God's Supreme Generals]

"... Hmm"

[Aren't you going to ask me that question? That... "Aren't you demons?... aren't you supposed to be exterminated... aren't you EVIL?"]

"Eh?. Why would I?. Good And Evil, it's just like you said, It's something which humans selfishly created to impose their buoyant laws on the anarchical society... Seriously, everything we call good has an evil side, and everything we call evil has a good side"

[.....]

"Like you, The Demon Lord. You fight for the survival of your kin. It's just the same with us as well. We kill and consume lives that were given the right to exist as well... It's just a medley of 'Samsara', the circle of life all around in this dog eats dog world"

[You sure are way too much of a smooth talker for your age]

"Ah... Well, I was taught competently from my childhood. What's Good and Evil?. When It's all just a matter of perspectives..."

....

××

"Honey!!! You can't do this!! Come with us!!"

*Muffled Clashing sounds*

"Run Sara!! Run!! Take Jin and run!!"

"Daddy?... I'm scared, mommy, tell him to stop fighting..."

....

*Fading footsteps and whistles*

*Following explosion and gunshots*

"Remember Jin, Your dad was not a bad guy... You'll understand as you grow up..."

"All I can provide as advice to you is that Reality, it's often disappointing... There's no Good and Evil.."

"Because it's all just a matter of perspectives"

××

....

[Oi brat! You alive?]

"...Ah... sorry... I was just... thinking about something"

[But. It still bugs me that I carry the feeling of empathy for a human. Haha... Maybe I've grown soft]

"Wait!. How long have you been cooped up in our school toilet?"

[If my memory is correct, then it would be approximately 367 days, 13 hours, 45 minutes, 8 seconds]

"What!!! You were trapped inside that urinal for more than a year?"

[Guess I was]

"Now I feel bad for you"

[Ah... You shouldn't... coz you are going to regret the imminent days of your life]

"Well... we'll face today, today and tomorrow, tomorrow, so put that thing away for the time being and tell me... why did you choose me?"

Jin raised his question.

[To be honest. I don't know. I felt a pull towards you, a pull that told me you were destined to be someone great, so I gave it my all in that little form of mine and made you slip. Of course, for me to get inside your body I needed to score a touch]

"So it was you!!. You don't even know how hard I hit my head on the urinal"

[Haha... I'll ask an apology for that I guess?. I healed it that very instant as well didn't I?]

"That's not how you apologize... Meh, whatever... It's not like I can expect anything from the lord of demons himself."

[Hm Hm]

"..."

"Nah, Wait... You were stuck inside the urinal for a year, right? Then how come you chose me this day?"

[Do I need to say something about that?. Of course, I saw you today...]

"Hahaha... It's stupid of me to ask that lol. Of course, you wouldn't see me, because it's the first time I've ever used the middle one because it's usually crowded"

Jin laughed off his question.

They weren't just having a casual talk but waiting for the hunters to come.

"Shit..."

Jin slapped his forehead as he realized something.

Even the demon seemed to chuckle as he felt his host sigh.

"How could I forget that one question??"

Jin sighed.

[Hehe... I was waiting for that as well]

"You could've just told me as you were lecturing... but anyway, tell me how you got into our Urinal in the first place"

[Now that... is a long story... But we have time, don't we... So I'll recite to you I guess?]

"..Hm.. Go On"

[I am in this pathetic state because I was betrayed... Yes, It's a tale of betrayal.]

[I, The Demon Lord, was defending my kin from the wrath of the God's 15 Holy Generals in the very south of Hell]

[I and my 7 demon generals Lucifer, Belphegor, Mammon, Asmodeus, Beelzebub, Leviathan, and Satan rushed to aid the soldiers in the battle to defend Hell's Southgate.]

[My instincts had warned me of trouble from the moment I came to know about the surprise attack from the Angel Generals... But maybe I was a bit too agitated to rush to their side that I gave up my logical ability to think]

[It had only been the second day from the day I signed the Hell and Heaven pact with God. I thought the aimless war between Angels and Demons would cease to exist from that moment.]

[Maybe I was wrong. Maybe, peace was never an option, to begin with]

[And the battle to where I rushed to was, to my horror, what I didn't want to happen. We were overpowered by the Angels.]

[I tried my best to fend off the strongest 15 Angel Generals and I almost had them on their knees... If it wasn't for that delusional bastard]

[My senses were at its limit and my back was free... and he knew it. It didn't take a second of hesitation for him to pierce my spirit with his sword...]

[I fell before heaven as I saw my people being obliterated... and as a last resort... I sacrificed my body to transport the very few of them who were left to the human world, to our main fuel source.]

"I'm sorry to hear that. But who betrayed you?"

Jin asked as he nodded his head with realization and intrigue.

....

[He was the strongest general of mine]

....

[The Fallen Angel...]

.....

[Lucifer]
