The Great Demon System

*End of the school day*

David Green, the man who went naked and shit on the ground in front of the entire school was crying in the middle forest with a knife in hand.

In one day, he became the laughing stock and punching bag of the entire school.

He was still confused about what led him to act the way he did. The video has already been posted online and has garnered over 20 million views worldwide.

He had been beaten and mocked so many times in one day that he could not take it anymore.

In one day, he had endured more punishment and humiliation than he had ever had in his entire life.

If it were not for his healing ability, his face would be totally unrecognizable even to the people he knows best.

Even Nathan and his gang have kicked him out of the group with a beating for being an embarrassment.

"My chances of ever having a social life has already been flushed down the drain! My future is ruined! I HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO LIVE FOR! He screamed as he swung the knife towards his throat.

"NO!! WAIT!! DON'T DO IT!!" Someone behind him screamed at the top of his lungs.

When he looked over he was shocked to find out who it was.

"Boss!?" He screamed in surprise stopping the knife mere inches from his throat.

There he saw Nathan standing beside a tree, panting hard from what seemed like a long run.

"Don't do it! You have so much to live for!" Said Nathan in a worried voice.

"WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU EVEN CARE ABOUT ME! WHEN I NEEDED YOU THE MOST! YOU JUST ABANDONED ME SAYING THAT I'M NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE AND THAT I'M A DISGRACE! THEN YOU GAVE ME A BEATING AS A REMINDER NEVER TO ASSOCIATE WITH YOU EVER AGAIN! AND NOW YOU ARE TRYING TO HELP ME OUT!! YOU ARE FULL OF SHIT!!" David screamed like a mad man.

"I'm so sorry! I now realize the grave error I made! You are an important part of our gang! I don't know what got into me when I kicked you out! If you join back, I promise you I will try my best to restore your lost honour! So please forgive me and join back with us!" Nathan said with what seemed like genuine.

This was the only positive thing that had happened to him ever since the incident.

David knew that Nathan was acting extremely out of character. Even still, he didn't stop to question it. This was the only sliver of hope he found in his dark tunnel and he is hanging on and not letting go.

"B.. Boss… do you really mean that?" He said while sniffling and wiping away his tears.

"Of course I do! I promise that from now on, you will be under my protection! No one will harm you ever again! You have my word!"

In David's eyes, he could see a golden shine of hope emanating from Nathan's body. It was like he was a holy saint sent by the heavens to help him in his time of need. He completely forgot he treated him earlier in the day and believed his words without a doubt because it was the only ray of hope he found in his life.

"Th.. Th… thank you, boss! I promise to repledge my full loyalty to you! I will make sure you don't regret your decision!" He said bowing his head on the dirty ground with eyes full of tears.

"Good! Now follow me deeper in the forest. We have much to discuss. I want to spend more time with you to better know your situation and your mental state. We will go deeper into the forest where we can't be disturbed. We will meet up with a new member of the gang. You two are pretty similar and I hope you get along," Nathan said as he headed deeper into the forest.

David nodded enthusiastically and followed right behind him.

After 20 minutes of walking while at the same time making small talk, they finally reached their destination. It was a big cave that opened from the side of a small hill.

When they both entered, the entrance to the cave suddenly closed.

David was startled at the sudden darkness and closure of the cave.

"Don't worry, I just used my earth ability to close the entrance of the cave for more privacy,"

Nathan quickly said to comfort David while glowing a few light crystals for more visibility.

David instantly calmed down and resumed following Nathan deeper into the cave.

After a few more minutes of walking, they saw a hooded figure standing in the distance.

David took a step back and became on high alert as soon as he saw the man.

"Don't be scared, that's the new member I was talking about," He said with a smile, taking away all of David's worries.

When they finally reached the hooded man, Nathan told David to go introduce himself.

"Hey, go introduce yourself to your junior. Don't worry, he doesn't bite, I promise. Give him a proper welcome as a senior and be confident in yourself." Nathan said with a smile.

David nodded and approached the hooded figure. The man was much taller than him who was only 5'8 while he stood at 6'0 tall. From his angle, he still could not see his face at all.

"Hello there junior. I am David Green, your senior. You should be honoured to join our great gang under the power of our glorious Boss, Nathan. As your senior, make sure to pay me your proper respect. ok newbie?" David said in an overbearing tone. He felt like he suddenly got his lost confidence back.

However, his confidence did not last for long

The man under the hood started laughing hysterically like he just heard the funniest thing in the world.

As soon as the man took off his hood, David was struck with his previous fear and despair. His legs started shaking like a vibrator and he fell on the ground cowering in fear.

"Do you remember me?!" The hooded man said while laughing even harder.
