Reserved Dustbin

I can still remember everything that happened on that horrid day, like it just took place yesterday

The sight of over 20 brutalized bodies on the floor of that old warehouse with their skulls cracked open, the sound of four year old Kaede closing her ears and eyes and crying in a corner with her clothes torn, the revolting smell of dead pieces of flesh and tissue hanging off the metal pipe I used, the feeling of the blood dripping down my hair onto my face as I was completely drenched in red from the blood of the others and the taste of my mouth which was as dry as a desert since it was the first time I had killed someone and awakened my 'Blood Lust' ability

Now that I think about it, that was probably the day my whole life turned upside down and changed for the worst. It was on that day that marked the birth and beginning of a new 'Undying King'

After I had experienced my 'Awakening' on that day, there was no turning back from the path to the Ascension of a King and even if I wanted to go back, there was always something that pushed me forward towards the 'Throne' that had my name engraved on it since I came into this world

It was also the moment I decided to take things into my own hands to protect Kaede from harm's way, so that an incident like that will never happen to her again

I decided to change the world so that it becomes a safer place for Kaede to live in, even if I had to change the very fundamental values and morals people live by and purge the millions of filthy vermin and scum that are a threat to Kaede's existence which I eventually did and succeeded in

But it's not like I can tell Rena that

"I'm not going to tell the actual reason as it's a long story and quite a depressing one. But what I will say, is that even a child can do terrifying things that no one can possibly imagine for someone they love. It may be to help them or it may be to protect them. But if the person in question is more important then their life, they wouldn't even mind to hurt someone no matter who or whatever number they may be…Even if it means to take their lives"

"Take their lives?…" Rena mumbled with a distressed look on her face

Yikes! I shouldn't have said that last part...No I shouldn't have said any of that. Because of what I said she looks as pale as a ghost now

"No, I'm taking in a hypothetical situation. Don't take it seriously"

"O-Oh okay…" She said in a dazed state

" *Sigh* This is why I didn't want to talk about this to you. Look you're all scared and shaken up right now. You can barely even talk"

Immediately after I said that, Rena came back to her senses and glared at me with her usual look and exclaimed

"Huh!? Who's scared?! I was just surprised with all the stuff you said! It's a lot to take in!"

"But you don't have to take in any of that. I was just rambling about some unnecessary stuff that I never should have told any one in the first place. I really regret my decision now" I replied and then said to divert her from this topic " But what we do need to do right now is go to class. You said you had to submit some report right?"

"Umm…Yeah. But-"

"Then let's clean up this mess and go"

"But we were taking about-"

"We can talk later. Let's just go to class now" I said, hoping she would give up and forget about it

"Sure, I guess…" She said hesitantly

Phew….Finally that's over. But just when I was about to pick up the dustbin to clean up the mess, I noticed something on it and said to Rena

"So Rena can I use your dustbin to clean up this mess?"

"Huh? Why are you asking me that? It's not like I own it"

"You don't? Then why is your name on it?"

"What?" She exclaimed in surprise as she picked up the dustbin and saw the small label on the side of the dustbin that said 'Rena-sama's Dustbin' and immediately scratched the paper off in anger

"You didn't do that? I thought you reserved that dustbin for yourself since you use it every day"

"What!? Do actually think that I'm childish enough to do something like that!?" She exclaimed in annoyance

"Well it honestly seems like something you would do"

"Idiot! Although I had thoughts about buying my own dustbin and keeping it there since sometimes the school dustbin is full, I never did it!"

So she was actually thinking of having a private dustbin in school…Her thoughts never cease to amaze me

"Dammit! Just who did this stupid thing?" Said Rena, as she glared at the surrounding, looking at every student who was standing there to see if the culprit was watching her

And sure enough when she stared at three girls who were looking at us from a corner, they immediately turned their heads and walked away in haste

"Did you see that!? It must be one of those damn bitches who did it!" Exclaimed Rena with a expression on her face as if she wanted to chase them down and slam the dustbin on their faces. "Just what do they have against me! If they want to say something to me, why can't they just say it to me face to face!"

I guess as much as I'm hated by the students of the school for some reason, Rena is hated by the girls too. Well it's pretty common to see someone popular among the boys, hated by the girls so I'm not really surprised

"It's okay. Calm down. It's just a prank" I said trying to appease her anger. "Don't get worked up over small things like this, it's just a waste of your time. You should just ignore it and forget it ever happended. That's what best for every one"

Rena seemed reluctant to agree to what I said at first but after a few seconds of thinking she gave up on the matter and said "Fine…Let's just clean this up and go. If I stay another minute in this place I'm going to blow a fuse"
