#This is a book placed on the shelf in the dream, recording the appearance of the demons before they reached the bride contract.

1 - eternity
"do not come!!!"
Someone is screaming.
"Don't come here!! You devil! Devil!! He did nothing wrong!! Why, why let him die?! Why let him leave me??"
Facing the questioning, the black god of death remained unmoved.
"All eternity are equal. There's no why, it's just how it should be."
"You don't understand at all!!"
"........."
Death does not understand, he has never experienced human feelings.Even if for some reason, he has those, but he still has never experienced them.This made him unable to understand the hysteria of the person in front of him.
Yet hysteria has no effect on Reaper, who still takes people who should go away.
"I hate you." That's what humans say.
"........."
Death has not returned, no matter what, he still brings eternity and equality to all.

2- anger
"Monster!! It's a monster!!"
People are crying.In this impoverished village on this remote isolated island, such disturbances are rare.The ragged girl was still dragging broken shackles on her ankles, and wherever she passed, she would be covered in flames.
"Please, we will never hurt you again! Please!"
Someone is begging.
"Sorry! Sorry!! It's our fault!! Sorry!"
Someone is apologizing.
"I know you're angry, but it won't do us any good! Where can you go after this?!"
Someone is justifying.
"woo woo woo woo……"
Someone is crying.
"I didn't do anything! I obviously didn't do anything!! Why!!"
There are complaints.
But it didn't stop, the flames didn't stop, the ground was cracking, magma spewed out from the ground, the girl walked in the village where the disaster happened, she watched, she listened, she was burning.
"Stop?" said the demon.
"No." The girl replied.
"You're going to die too. Do you want to stop?"
"Do not."
"...Do you want to keep watching?"
"Yes."

3- Omniscient
"I need to know the answer."
The scholar's tired face made him look even thinner. He said a little excitedly: "I must know the answer. I spent my whole life just for this day, but the experiment failed. How could it fail?"
"You need to offer a sacrifice," said the demon.
"Sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice? Is my life not good enough?"
"Your life is worthless."
The scholar was shocked, angry, and helpless.He didn't have a seizure, just paused for a moment, and then said, "So what's valuable to you?"
"Everything you love, hate, desire."
"This experiment is everything to me!!"
"That's not the right question."
What does this demon want?The scholar fell into deep thought again in surprise, and then his eyes saw the family photos on the desk.Beautiful wife, lovely daughter...
He looked at the devil: "No!"
"Looks like you've found something of real value. So..."
"No! Wait a minute!! No!!"
"If you still want the previous answer..."
"No! I don't want it!!! Take it! My experiment, my result, my honor! My life!! Don't hurt them!!"
"...you will lose everything."
"It's okay! Don't hurt them!!"
"as you wish."

4- fear
That's too dangerous.people think.
It's really too dangerous. That family lives in this community. Although the rumors are exaggerated, who can say for sure?
They are outsiders, they don't know the rules here.
It can only be them, it's too scary, too dangerous, what should our children do?What about our lives?
They must be driven away.They must disappear.
"Is this what you wish?" said the devil.
"That's right! You can do it, right?"
"...The sacrifice is this." A dead cat, thank you for thinking of such a perfunctory way to deal with me.But if I agree, it means that the value of cats is much higher than that of humans.
"Can you do it? They've threatened the safety of the community!"
"alright."
Demons are useful.The next day, the family moved away in a hurry.The community is safe, and I am safe.It was I who protected everyone.
[Reports from local newspapers]
The serial killer in the community has been caught, and by the time he was caught, three children had been killed.This is a rare crime of living sacrifice.
"It's a good thing we moved, and we have kids too!"
Citizens who recently moved out of the community expressed their opinions.

5- Arrogance
"Yes, Your Majesty the King."
The courtiers bowed their heads loyally.
He is the king of this great country, the owner of all great achievements, and the creator of all magnificent legends.He is the closest existence to God on this earth—at least that's what is written in the latest hymn.
"Back off. General, you stay."
However, he was not satisfied.He was tired of all the beautiful words, those exaggerated compliments made him sick, he hated everything he looked at, as if he couldn't see the beauty, the sunshine, the singing of birds and flowers.He was not happy with this peace.
"Do you have a plan, General?"
"…………Yes."
The general paused for a moment before speaking.It's his job, there's nothing else he can do.
"Then do it, general. For me, and for the kingdom."
"........."
"General?"
"Yes."
As the king wished, war broke out.Things don't go so well however, as his kingdom is nowhere near as powerful as his hymns make it out to be.At the end of the war, it was said, the king was mad, complaining to empty rooms, and yet...
"You got everything you wanted."
The demon said, "And the title of Mad King. Your kingdom? I said...everything has its price."
"You never said I would fail!" the Mad King complained.
"Yes," said the demon, "but you only said you wanted the power to wage war. You got it. And you paid for it."
Then, the kingdom fell.Just like everyone wants.

6-gem
The only way in this world to bring a person or animal back to life is to find that gem.
Gem of rebirth.This is the adventurer's only hope.
Find the gem of rebirth, bring the master back to life, and gain a chance to defeat the devil.It is not common for a brave man to embark on a journey for this reason.However, this is the only hope, the only way.
"This is the last..."
The adventurers who have gone through untold hardships finally found the temple where the gem of rebirth is hidden.He took a deep breath and opened the door of the temple.
The gems were placed on the altar in the temple.Shine like a diamond.The adventurer finally got his wish, he quickened his pace and rushed towards the jewel, but when his hand was about to touch the jewel, he passed through.A gem is like a projection, which cannot be obtained, touched, or used.
"Please, this is the only way!"
The unrecognized adventurer begged.
"We can't win without Master!"
It's the fate of the world - maybe?Who can guarantee it?Is the world ruled by the devil really bad?Even the heart of the adventurer is shaken.He must be justice?
"Is the rebirth gem real?"
This may be nothing more than an excuse for people to escape reality.
"Maybe we are not qualified enough."
Not eligible to be saved.No, maybe... that's the punishment.To pin our hopes on the past and the dead instead of fighting and fighting ourselves.
"is it?"
The adventurer asked.However, the gem won't answer.

The author has something to say:
Why is there no flutter?Because Pupu is not a demon.She's just a kitten!
There is no text today... Hey, when everyone leaves the company, you must deal with company affairs involving your personal information, such as work mobile phone number, work account number, etc., otherwise you will be stabbed in the back suddenly like Cang Cang ! (Not a big deal, but really troublesome)
