*Two years later*
Shin had adjusted to his new life in the facility the demons had kept hidden from the world in case of the demon kings death.
Shin wondered the facility as the General's personal guard. He learnt her name during this three years. Her name was Satel.
Shin had finally found peace in this facility. Every demon in the facility had stopped looking at him with hostility and treated him better than the humans had ever did.
Shin loved walking around the facility with Satel, the person who had brought him back to life and cared for him for 3 years.
He looks back on his life, almost on a daily basis. Always replaying the day he was pushed into the demon kings throne room.
'You know Bjorn. If you hadn't pushed me, I wouldn't be free right now', he chuckled at the thought.
Satel looked at him with confusion on her face but brushed him off. "Well Shin. Now that you can speak again why don't we talk about helping me out of a bind", Satel said as she sat Shin down.
"A bind you say", Shin replied coldly. Satel looked at him again with confusion," Yeesh. No need to be cold. I helped you out remember", She said while pouting.
Shin was motionless. He hadn't ment to sound ungrateful. He pondered for an response and finally he spoke.
"I'm sorry if I sound ungrateful. I think there is something wrong with my speech. It's as if I'm unable to convey emotions through speech", Shin answered coldly.
Satel pouted and looked away. 'Huh!? This is bad. Why can't I not sound like I don't give a damn', Shin thought to himself.
"Fine. I'll take your excuse. But I still need your help", Satel answered finally looking at Shin.
"Okay", He answered. Before Satel could speak, the whole facility went into chaos as sirens sounded and demons ran out the facility in a panick.
The pair stood up slowly, confused at what was happening.
"Oh so many demons. The goddess was right", A voice that sounded eerily familiar to Shin rang out.
Shin quickly went on high alert as the last demons ran out, leaving him and Satel as the only ones that remained.
A group off 7 people walked into the spacious cafeteria and confronted the two. Shin's blood began to boil as rage filled his heart.
The group that walked in was the hero party, lead by Bjorn, the hero of light and the holy sword saint.
Bjorn lifted his head and looked at the two. He turned his head and faced Satel, drawing his sword and pointing it at her.
"Where is Shin'en's body you demon!?",He asked in an angry voice. Satel responded with a half smile as she bolted across the room.
"Oh no you don't ", one the heroes said as he seemingly teleported in a flash of lightning and appeared before Satel, blocking her path.
"Batter up", A hero said slamming her ernomous hammer against Satel, pushing her back.
Bjorn looked at Shin, not recognizing it was him. Shin immideatly caught up with Satel and caught her.
He snarled at the hero party as he was prepared to fight them all and kill them once and for all.
"BJORN!!! DON'T TELL ME YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE YOUR OWN FRIEND'S BODY!!!", Shin yelled at him.
Bjorn was momentarily shocked.
The mask on Shin's face seeped into his skin, revealing a bit older version of his face, maybe in his early twenties.
Bjorn stood there in shock, recognizing the face of Shin who he thought was long dead and was now just an empty corpse in Satels army.
Shin grabbed Satels sword and walked forward, ready to kill.
