Chapter 5: The Demon of Wrath
Kurojin sat in the small, cold interrogation room. His eyes were blank, his voice tired.
Kurojin: "I told you... I don't know where she is."
Across the table, a police officer sighed, clearly frustrated.
Officer: "Don't lie to us. You were the last person who saw her. It makes sense… it has to be you."
Another officer standing by the door nodded.
Officer 2: "That's it. Take him to the cell."
Kurojin: "What?"
The officer grabbed Kurojin's arm roughly and pulled him up.
Kurojin: "You're making a mistake—!"
Thrown into a small jail cell, Kurojin sat in silence. Ard's voice echoed in his head.
Ard: "So… what now?"
Kurojin: "I don't know. There was a camera… maybe…"
Behind a glass wall, two officers monitoring the cameras watched him closely.
Officer 3: "Who is he talking to?"
Officer 4: "I don't know… maybe he's lost it."
Time passed. Kurojin lay on the hard bed, staring at the ceiling.
Ard: "What's your plan?"
Kurojin suddenly stood up and pressed the red emergency button.
Officers rushed in.
Officer: "Finally ready to talk?"
Kurojin nodded.
Before he could speak, another officer entered the room, holding a report.
Officer: "We've intercepted a message. The kidnappers plan to meet at the park… with a 14-year-old girl."
Kurojin smiled faintly.
Kurojin: "That place… I know it. I can go get him for you."
Officer: "Why should we let you?"
Kurojin: "Because he doesn't know I'm a cop. He'll see right through you."
The officer thought for a moment, then tossed him a small object.
Officer: "Fine. Wear this—camera inside. We'll be watching."

Meanwhile at the Park
Luna stood in a line of terrified kids. Her hands were shaking.
Luna: "Please… someone… save me."

Kurojin at the Park
Kurojin walked slowly through the park. Ard's voice whispered.
Ard: "Nice play, Kurojin."
Kurojin spotted a man in a long coat and black glasses, standing alone.
Kurojin: "Hey."
The man looked up.
Kurojin: "Where are the kids you kidnapped?"
Man: "...What did you say?"
Kurojin: "The police sent me."
Ard: "Hey! Why did you blow your cover?!"
Suddenly, two men grabbed Kurojin, slammed him down, and handcuffed him.
Man: "Take him."
They shoved him in a car and sped off.

Inside the Hideout
When Kurojin woke up, he was tied to a chair in a dim room. Luna was there too.
Luna: "Kurojin… you came for me?"
Kurojin: "Yeah. We're friends, right?"
She looked surprised… then slapped him lightly.
Luna: "So what's the plan?"
Kurojin: "...I don't have one."
Luna: "What?! Why did you come then?!"
Kurojin looked away, thinking. Where's Yuki? Where's Natsu?
The door creaked open. A man called Kurojin's name.
Luna: "They're taking our blood. Then… they feed it to that monster."
Kurojin turned to look. There, lying in a pit, was a monstrous figure.
Ard: "Wait... is that—"
Kurojin: "You know him?"
Ard: "Yeah. From my timeline… that's the Demon of Wrath. One of the Four Demon Kings."
Kurojin: "Like the Seven Deadly Sins?"
Ard: "Exactly."

Face to Face
Kurojin was taken into a lab room. A needle pricked his arm.
Kurojin: "Why are you doing this?"
Scientist: "To destroy this world."
Kurojin: "Stop lying. You have kids."
Scientist: "...What?"
Kurojin: "There are toys on the floor. Why would a grown man have toys?"
The man looked away, silently.

The Demon Awakens
Days passed. More blood. More fear.
Then suddenly, the monster opened its eyes.
It roared and destroyed everything in its path.
Luna screamed. The monster moved to crush her—until Kurojin leapt in front.
He shielded her with his body.
Luna: "Why did you save me?"
Kurojin: "Because I'm immortal… you're not."
The monster lunged again.
Kurojin: "Run, Luna!"
Luna: "I can't—"
Kurojin: "GO!"
She cried, but ran. Kurojin turned to face the beast.
Ard: "It's been a while."
The monster punched—Ard punched back. The impact shook the entire building.
BOOM! BOOM!
Blood spilled from Ard's mouth.
Ard: "You haven't changed…"
The monster roared again.
Ard: "Okay then… time to use it."
The monster charged—but slowed mid-step.
Ard: "My ability—Blue. I manipulate time and space. You move slower. I move faster."
Ard blurred—then delivered 100 punches in seconds.
The monster bled and collapsed.
Ard: "You drank human blood… now taste your own."
Ard's eyes faded back to normal.
Kurojin collapsed, exhausted.
A mysterious man appeared, picked him up gently…
And disappeared into the shadows.
