August, 560 AD

The moonlight shrouded the earth, faintly reaching out to the land without civilization. Far into the deep forest, the rays of the moon were lit up by the reflection of the water of a large lake. On the edge of that God's created pool, laid down a 15-year-old boy who was unconscious.

A reddish leaf is seen floating around by the night wind. The month of August can still be counted in the Gregorian calendar, but it seems that nature is about to start this year's autumn earlier than how it should be. Slowly that leaf was carried around by the wind and fell down on the sleeping teenager.

"Ugh...!" muttered the boy as he pushed away the leaves which fell on his forehead.

The boy was lying around right under the moonlight without it's beam being blocked by any shady tree which filled the whole forest. Little by little his eyelids opened, then closed. Then he opened it again by slightly blocking the moonlight that pierced his newly conscious eyes with his hand.

After a while, he sat up and looked around and then looked back, "Huh...? This is... Is this Earth?" the boy asked himself as he was stunned and astonished.

Before his surprise question was answered, he started to touch and explore his own body and looked at the pair of his own arms then asked again, "...Hair? Skin? Two arms...? Huh... haha... I... So i'm a... human now?"

As if he was satisfied enough with looking pensively at his body, then he continued by tilting his head to the glittering night sky full of stars accompanying the moon.

"What exactly is going on...? O my Lord?" said the boy with a heart that was still full of wonder.

"W̶h̶a̶t̶ e̶l̶s̶e̶?̶ O̶f̶ c̶o̶u̶r̶s̶e̶ h̶e̶'s̶ e̶x̶i̶l̶i̶n̶g̶ y̶o̶u̶ a̶w̶a̶y̶, y̶o̶u̶ d̶u̶m̶b̶ h̶e̶a̶d̶!̶" A mysterious voice sounded out of nowhere as if it's answering a question in his heart.

The boy was shocked and spontaneously shouted, "WHO? WHO WAS THAT?!"

"W̶h̶a̶t̶?̶ Y̶o̶u̶'v̶e̶ f̶o̶r̶g̶o̶t̶t̶e̶n̶ a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ m̶e̶?̶ K̶e̶k̶e̶k̶e̶, n̶o̶ n̶e̶e̶d̶ t̶o̶ w̶o̶r̶r̶y̶ b̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ I̶'m̶ y̶o̶u̶r̶ f̶r̶i̶e̶n̶d̶, b̶e̶s̶t̶f̶r̶i̶e̶n̶d̶ a̶t̶ t̶h̶a̶t̶. W̶e̶'r̶e̶ b̶o̶t̶h̶ b̶e̶s̶t̶f̶r̶i̶e̶n̶d̶ w̶h̶o̶ g̶o̶t̶ e̶x̶i̶l̶e̶d̶ b̶y̶ h̶i̶m̶, t̶h̶a̶t̶ h̶i̶g̶h̶l̶y̶ b̶a̶s̶t̶a̶r̶d̶!̶" the mysterious voice replied back with a soft laugh and his smug tone at the figure's cursing.

The boy was silent for a moment while muttering questions again, "Best friend...? ...Highly bastard? What in the world...? Who the hell are you? How dare you call the Almighty with such curses...?"

Because the figure didn't answer his questions right away, he then looked around while trying to remember who the owner of that mysterious voice might be. Slowly walking, closer to the lake's shore, then he look at the deep water. Thanks to the moonlight, it appears clearly in the water. That his human form appears like a reflected mirror. Little by little, the reflection in the water changed. Growing a pair of horns like that of a goat's horn. While he stunned by that weirdly transformation and then suddenly...

"O̶h̶ h̶e̶l̶l̶o̶ M̶y̶ L̶o̶v̶e̶l̶y̶ A̶n̶g̶e̶l̶ b̶e̶s̶t̶ f̶r̶i̶e̶n̶d̶!̶ H̶o̶w̶'s̶ i̶t̶?̶ H̶a̶v̶e̶ y̶o̶u̶ r̶e̶m̶e̶m̶b̶e̶r̶e̶d̶ m̶e̶?̶ H̶e̶h̶e̶h̶e̶" said the reflection of himself which had changed with that new pair of horns as the reflection greeted him by gently waving his hand.

"AHHH!!" shouted the boy right away with his wide eyes still in disbelief.

"W̶h̶a̶t̶ n̶o̶w̶?̶ D̶o̶n̶'t̶ e̶x̶a̶g̶g̶e̶r̶a̶t̶e̶ t̶h̶i̶n̶g̶s̶ l̶i̶k̶e̶ t̶h̶a̶t̶!̶ D̶i̶d̶ t̶u̶r̶n̶i̶n̶g̶ i̶n̶t̶o̶ a̶ h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶ m̶a̶k̶e̶ y̶o̶u̶ a̶ c̶o̶w̶a̶r̶d̶-̶b̶e̶i̶n̶g̶ l̶i̶k̶e̶ t̶h̶e̶m̶ t̶o̶o̶?̶ H̶a̶h̶a̶h̶a̶ y̶o̶u̶ i̶d̶i̶o̶t̶ a̶s̶s̶h̶o̶l̶e̶!̶" said the mirror figure still with his annoying attitude.

"Strange... The reflection of my form changes and moves by itself. But the mysterious sound doesn't come from the water reflection. Am i hallucinating? or what...?" the boy thought to himself, as if ignoring his self-reflection's provoking attitude and just trying to figure out what exactly was going on.

Soon, after his attention was drawn to a pair of goat horns from the reflection of his form. The boy remembered very well that those horn is the horn he had seen when he was in the upper realms.

"YOU!! THE FUCKING DEVIL THAT STRAYED ME, RIGHT?! WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW? NOT YET SATISFIED ENOUGH THAT YOU ALREADY MADE ME DROPPED FROM THE HIGH HEAVEN? GO AWAY YOU FCKING HELL CREATURE!" shout the boy's unbearable fury after he remembers everything.

Without replying to the swear words from the now-furious boy, the mysterious figure slowly disappeared from the water reflection with a gentle smile on his face. Then the form of the boy's reflection returns to its normal state. Trying to regain his composure, the boy saw the face of his new human form. With that olive skin color and an Asian race look on his face. The boy's haircut was seen in a jet-black wolf cut style as it's his natural form color. After looking at his face, apparently, he still couldn't calm down from his emotions.

While biting his lower lip with an annoyed expression he then grumbled, "Damned devil, I will surely repay your misguidance after I get forgiveness from my God... I swear that i'll ascend back to the high heaven, and i'll wipe your existence from this universe. Forever. You asshole... !"

"SURELY I WILL...!!"
