2 hours before the incident
[time 04:11 Pm.]
In Mirai's house, there is only Mirai's mother Haruka, who is sewing torn clothes. And Pochi sleeps on Mirai's mother's lap, only they are home. Since the beginning, Mirai's mother has always been sewing clothes, over time it has become a habit that Mirai's mother often does in her spare time.
The grandmother is at the shrine with Mirai, while the Kelfin helps escort and accompany Hayato to school in the village.
Around 4 o'clock that afternoon, the atmosphere around the house was as usual. The atmosphere of the afternoon was sunny and quiet. With a gentle and slightly warm gust of wind.
Suddenly, duar...! The sound of lightning gledek foreshadows the coming rain... Mother Mirai's face became tense in shock.
He turned his head to the sky holding her hand, it seemed that his breathing became breathless and he began to feel a bad feeling...
In a place and at a time that is not much different, in one of the houses of village officials. There were many residents gathered there, from the looks of the number, they were about 56 people. It can be seen that one of the bigwigs gave a short speech to them, and instantly they all became extremely turbulent in emotion and their expressions were very far away from the word "human". Angry and dark emotions.
And from behind the crowd, you can see many people dressed all in black, some look like thugs and some are neatly dressed like officials. And among them was an old grandmother, wearing a blood-black kimono.
And he... (smile).
While at the shrine place, grandma was busy praying at the top shrine, the temple of the god of blessing and happiness. And the mirai is busy sweeping the temple grounds area. Then not long after, when he heard the roar of lightning, he realized that soon there would be rain.
"Soon it will rain, arriving at home for grandmother's favorite food" he smiled while looking at grandmother who was praying.
It's raining...
She walked to where her grandmother was praying, patiently waiting for her grandmother to finish praying. Her intention was to take grandma home. Then not long after, two stranger walked into the temple grounds. Seen when he enters from the gate, one of them is her grandmother's old friend (she remembers very well, because she visited a lot when mirai was a child) and the other is like a person from a big city (he looks like an old father of officials), when grandma sees their faces, especially her old friend... grandma's expression changed... She was very angry.
"I haven't seen my friend Fuyumi (Mirai's grandmother) for a long time, time really changed your face"
"Moei !! How dare you step on your feet in the village, HOW DARE!" With a very annoyed face, the grandmother came down from the steps of the temple.
She wanted to hit her in the face but before he continued walking towards her, his footsteps stopped... His eyes widened in disbelief.
Behind them…
Seeing the grandmother who was not usually like this, made Mirai ask questions in her mind. But when she turned her face, she was also surprised, which made him worried, behind the two foreigners, there was one of the village bigwigs and several camps of villagers who had long disliked the Mirai family. And they all carry sharp weapons and fire torches.
Mirai came to her senses, her pupils dilated. She knew this would be disastrous.
"Grandma?" with an anxious face.
In her moment of worry, grandma came forward and turned her back to her, like she was shielding her grandson. Then grandma said,
"Grandma loves you very much, but at this time, hurry home, pass the back road of the temple, go home...
and go all the way from here"
The grandmother smiled at Mirai.
Mirai was shocked to hear that, her face became very pale, she began to shortness her breath, she felt very sad.
Her tears began to come out...
Then suddenly, from the entourage, "KILL THE EVIL WITCH"
They started walking in the direction to mirai and grandma...
The grandmother began to mount her horses to survive, even though she was old, she used to be a karate master. One by one, some villagers who tried to attack him were paralyzed.
With that old condition, she is still very strong...
It is like a big tree protecting a rabbit that is sheltering under it.
One after another
She defeated them.
"I don't care why you guys are doing evil like this! until you touch my GRANDSON! I WON'T FORGIVE YOU"
While hoisting one of the residents, "GO FORWARD!"
One of the higher-ups and villagers became afraid. They were all defeated by the determination and anger of one grandmother.
Only one grandmother loves her grandson very much.
She's a tough grandma. Thought the stranger with a smile.
"Moei sooner you intervene, while my men will stand guard"
Moei was silent for a while after she realized that some of the strangers' men were not here.
"Where are some of your men?" asked Moei
"Where else, this plan must succeed and I don't want to risk failure. If plan A fails, then use B. But I prefer both plans to run at once."
A very cunning man, Moei said.
While Grandma Mirai was busy making the villagers afraid and afraid to attack her.
Moei started doing something, she took out a needle from his sleeve, it looked like it was just an ordinary needle with a black string. But without thinking she pierced the palm of his left hand, then she let his blood flow out until it dripped to the ground...
Then the other hand started forming a strange hand symbol and she said... I summon the cursed spirit,
Sei KURO !...
From that drop of blood, come out terrible sound...
Slowly it started to come out, his hands looked very wrinkled and his nails were very long and looked sharp.
There was the sound of a dog growling, but no dog was there. It turned out to be the voice of the spirit.
From the hands, head and legs that are very strange, like the merging of the face of a dog, human hands and ape feet with very dense fur and a foul smell that stings the nose.
"Khuwah….!! Ghost !! GHOST !!" said one resident.
The residents who were around who saw it, they all became very hysterical, to the point of throwing the torches they carried. Towards the spirit.
The toss was just a futile act that had no effect on the spirit. And even their throws shot into the temple behind the mirai and his grandmother, and in the end sparked a temple fire.
Mirai sees the strange creature, she is transfixed and unable to move, but her grandmother pats her head and makes her refocus.
"Go, make sure Mom, Sister and the others are safe. Leave this to your grandmother." Grandma rubbed mirai's hair and started to stand up... He began to stare intently at Moei...
"GRANDMA!! I'M GOING TO SEEK HELP, SO please, please..., hold on until I get back"
"Indeed, who is in front of you (she wiped the tears of his grandaughter) remember, grandmother is the strongest"
Mirai started smiling not because of anything, she just remembered how difficult her grandmother always said that sentence. He also began to stand up.
She saw his grandmother's face, and his grandmother smiled, "Grandma loves you all very much"
"I... not.. but we.....we also love grandma very much" Mirai smiled... And she turned around and with the weight of Mirai leaving her grandmother, ran towards the secret passage behind the temple (the secret passage where Kelfin first appeared before).
Grandma's focus returned to the monster. Then he was shocked... because
The monster started attacking the villagers one by one, the villagers he managed to embrace, he ate with one bite until they lost half of their bodies.
Some of them froze for help, but their cries were in vain.
Officials and some residents could only run away leaving their friends who were being attacked.
Like, hearts are just decoration for them, the most important thing is that they survive. That's what they thought.
The monster started glaring at those who managed to escape… With that sharp gaze, he attacked them with the small spirits that were around his body.
"Help !!!" one of them.
In their hearts, they were afraid and regretful. They remembered their respective families at home. Some remember their mothers, some remember their fathers and some remember their children.
They bocome just like this caused their own sin of hatefull. They is one of caused mirai's father was dead in the past.
But…
Who would have thought, they were saved by the person they were trying to kill…
And in his loud voice, "Sei... NAGAMASA!" then from behind the grandmother, a something look like a person appeared. At first glance from her clothes, it was like she was wearing a miko (red-and-white shrine guard) outfit but when see her face, it was...., a beautiful woman's face with long flowing hair until it touched the ground. At first glance it looks nothing like a spirit. But its more than that.
While Mirai was on her run she thought about grandma, mother, sister, pochi and kelfin. In the midst of his escape, on the way down the temple he was confronted by many strangers. She felt very weak and scared when they started walking up to him, he tried to hold his legs from falling because of the shake.
She tried to prepare on the defensive, but she knew he wouldn't be able to win against as many people alone.
She thought, Why! what's wrong with my family! Why are we hated!
What our lives went wrong !
Don't we deserve to live!
Why! She thought in her heart that was screaming in her tears.
In that moment of desperation, she tried to close her eyes out of fear.
but,...
At that time...
There was a voice she was very familiar with. The sound of someone emerging from the bush... The voice that made her heart calm and happy. She opened her eyes, and saw by her side was the person she desperately needed.
Although his face was hurt by nothing. Although there was a straight path, he always strayed to the top of the temple. But he was never late in times of need. Said Mirai in her heart.
She was stunned, seeing his with a gasp, standing tall on her right side..., came to help this weak women, said mirai in his heart.
The person who was mirai, was trying to catch his breath to normal because he was tired of running, in kimono clothes he took a deep breath. "Huah, fortunately I was in time, Mirai took refuge behind me"
"I don't know who you are, but you're looking for trouble with the wrong person!" with his piercing gaze he stared at them all.
Seeing his action mirai smiled while shedding tears,
"Thank you.., kelfin..."
In that rain, kelfin has come.

At the same time at Mirai's house, many strangers were surrounding the house and what was worse, the house was on fire.
