Heres yesterdays entry
From that moment on the boy underwent training by the man and he grew by leaps and bounds. He discovered he had the power to control and wield metal; able to bend it to his own whim. The boy often tested his skills in spars with the man but could never win. No matter ho hard he tried the man was always one step ahead of him. He also honed his skills through various jobs slaying demons. One such case though sowed seeds of doubt in his mind. The man which he now referred to as father sent him to destroy a rouge demon. When He confronted his father on why this demon needed to die all he would say was that being a demon made . He searched the countryside for the demon and found him in the house of a human woman, but the demon was heavily injured. Before the battle he questioned the demon on why he was exiled and hurt so severely. The demon answered that he had made the woman his wife and had been seen as a failure by his tribe who were currently at war with the woman‘s village. All he had wanted to do was live a peaceful life but he had just barely lived through a fight with one of the elite tribe members who had been sent by his father. But what really shook the boy was the fact that he denied being a demon all the way up to his death. He knew he must be lying, he was a demon after all he thought, and anyway hadn’t his father told him that this demon had been ravaging the countryside and killing countless innocents? Even with doubts flooding his mind the boy killed the demon in front of the women and child. When the job was done he turned to face the women and child to find them crying. The boy became utterly confused by this sight ran off as quickly as he could. The sight of the two humans crying over the death of that demon was burned into his mind from then on. From that time on he began to see flickers of human features in all the demons he killed
