Chapter 434 - The Hermit

My name is Dr. Kiryu Nasumi.

And I am the only real person in this world.

At least... that's what I thought when I woke up in the body of some dumb child. A child thinking thoughts that felt like they were half mine until they weren't.

That child turned out to be a demon. And an angel. I watched him grow up. Make the same choices I made when it came to who to be. Beyond biology or gender...

And I watched him take the hits like a goddamn masochist. A stubborn one. And a strong one, but still.

He knew the game was rigged from the start. From the moment he found out what being 'demonkin' meant. That moment we got stabbed by some fucking teenager.

Seventy-something years of living for me at that point, and I just knew it would be some asshole human with more anger than sense that killed us. Don't get me wrong, from everything I learned by then, I'd guessed this world was the fresh start I'd wanted for Humanity Take-Two, but all I saw was more of Earth.
