Rina, The future priestess
Rina is a woman in her early thirties. She lives with her seven-year-old daughter in a small house in Maple village.
Like any other day, today too, she is busy with housework and farming. Her cute daughter also helps her with some of the chores.
Eight months ago, in her village, the villagers decided to start a new business to improve the village's financial condition and Rina too had supported that decision.
At that time, a species of animal called Mugger had recently been very popular as a source of meat. Muggers are cute animals with light brown fur and a plump build. They lack horns but have long, goat-like ears and stand at a height of about 1.5 feet.
Their tender red meat had become very popular in cities as well as in some villages. The demand for muggers was really high at that time. So, the villagers decided to take advantage of this opportunity and raise muggers on a large scale.
The villagers gathered all the funds they could muster and bought everything necessary for their new business. They purchased around 300 baby muggers, grains to feed them, and other necessities.
Under the villagers' care, the baby muggers grew very well—too well, even. In just two months, they were more than twice their original size and plump. Without even being cooked, they already looked delicious.
I mean, who wouldn't want to eat those plump little sacks of tender meat?
Things were looking good. They had already found buyers who were willing to purchase the muggers at a very good price. Overall, the business was looking very successful.
But suddenly, a terrifying demon appeared near the village in the middle of the night while the villagers were asleep. The demon was littered with wounds and terribly hungry. It could barely walk and was limping. It had a vaguely humanoid shape and was very ferocious.
Blinded by hunger and thirst for blood, it pounced on the muggers as soon as it saw them. What happened after that could only be described as butchering.
It butchered those little things with a cruel but delighted smile on its beastly face as it was the most natural thing in the world.
But even a demon like that couldn't kill…nearly hundred muggers at once, so it just remained there along with the hundreds of terrified muggers.
Hearing the terrified bleating of the muggers and other strange noises, many villagers woke up from their sleep and gathered in front of the place where they kept the muggers.
But when they reached there and saw a cruel and gruesome scene unfold before their eyes they froze from the sheer horror they felt
They felt terror, helplessness, and desperation unlike ever before.
The ground was dyed red with blood. The torn and ripped corpses of many muggers could be seen on the ground here and there.
Most of the muggers were still alive, cowering in fear in the corners. In the middle stood the horror from the depths of hell. It was a demonic beast, a nightmare for these weak villagers.
It stood tall and felt tall, with four mighty arms and two humanoid legs. It was bleeding from wounds but still didn't stop tearing and eating those poor animals.
The evil-eyed demon used all four arms to rip those animals apart. One by one, it butchered them one after another.
The villagers were there, silently watching the massacre take place, but they couldn't do anything.
They were furious and wanted to rip that demon apart for what it was doing, but they couldn't because they were weak and the demon was strong.
They couldn't even put up a fight. They just stood there trembling in fear and feeling helpless.
No one moved, not even a single person dared to move. They just waited.
They waited and waited and waited, hoping as they witnessed the inhuman cruelty of the demon.They knew they would die if they moved, so they didn't.
They didn't move an inch and just waited to be butchered.
The demon slaughtered and slaughtered and slaughtered, without stopping even once. Perhaps it was too focused on slaughtering those animals; it didn't even look at the villagers.
It used all its arms, claws, horns, tail, maw. It used everything it had as a weapon to rip apart those weak animals.
It had already killed most of the muggers. It ripped one, crushed another, pierced another, and ate another.
A wicked and cruel smile once again appeared on its beastly face. Witnessing it, the villagers felt terror they had never felt before.
Just as the demon finished killing the last one of the muggers, it turned Its evil gaze fell upon the villagers.
The demon looked delighted, there was joy in its eyes.
And the villagers knew why that fiend was happy. It was because it got more prey - to slaughter, to kill, to eat, to play.
It slowly approached the villagers slightly limping. Even after slaughtering hundreds of those animals its thirst for blood didn't seem to have quenched.
It walked on the ground that was awashed with blood. Its footsteps echoed in that desolate and cold silent night.

It picked a woman as his first human prey. She was a 31-year-old woman with pink hair and green eyes. Her name was Rina.
The demon opened its maw wide... impossibly wide.
Just as it was about to devour her head in a single bite... hope finally arrived.
