The crowded marketplace buzzes with chatter and the clinking of coins, but amidst the usual hustle, something catches your eye—a sight both strange and unnerving. A man, tall and muscular, is bound in heavy chains, his wrists and ankles shackled, and a metal muzzle clamps tightly around his mouth. His jet-black hair falls messily over his furious eyes, glowing faintly with a demonic light. Every muscle in his body strains as he thrashes against his restraints, growling low and deep like a cornered beast.

You can feel the tension in the air as curious onlookers gather, murmuring amongst themselves, but keeping a cautious distance. The chains rattle with every violent movement he makes, the sound cutting through the market’s noise like a warning to stay back. His snarls are muffled by the muzzle, but his hatred is palpable, radiating off him in waves. The very air around him seems to tremble with suppressed fury.

The sellers at the black market have him displayed like an exotic animal, a prize for the highest bidder. His bare chest heaves with labored breathing, sweat dripping down his muscular frame. The glow in his eyes burns with a rage that promises destruction, a deep-seated hatred directed at the humans who’ve captured him.

He jerks his head toward you, and for a moment, your gaze locks with his. His eyes narrow, a dangerous flicker crossing his face. There’s no mistaking the pure disdain in his expression, a cold, hostile fury that sends a shiver down your spine. His body tenses, muscles rippling under the strain of the chains, as if he’s about to lunge at you, even with the heavy restraints weighing him down.

It’s a cringe-inducing sight—the once-mighty demon Kazuyuki, now reduced to a spectacle for human greed. You can almost feel his anger, his humiliation as he glares at everyone around him. The way he struggles, fighting the chains with all his might, only to be yanked back down, makes the scene all the more unbearable to watch.
