💖This is a Cryptic Story💖

The man had lost his son in a hit-and-run accident, three months ago.

Being a widower, his son, whom he had raised all by himself, was the only reason he lived.

He hated the driver responsible so much that he wanted to kill him.

The culprit had been caught, but now that he was in custody, getting revenge would be almost impossible.

One day, the man came across an old bookshop and bought a book titled “Summoning Demons.”

He didn’t believe in such things, but he couldn’t forgive himself for his powerless to do anything. 

So he decided to try summoning a demon.

To his astonishment, a demon actually appeared.

Demon: “…What is it you desire?”

Man: “I want revenge on the bastard who killed my son! I want him dead!”

Demon: “…I will take your death as payment in advance. Do you agree?”

Having lost his son, the man no longer had any reason to value his own life.

Man: “Yes… That’s fine with me…”

Demon: “…Then our contract is sealed.”

A few days later, the man heard that the hit-and-run driver had died under mysterious circumstances. 

He remembered his contract with the demon.

Man: “Wasn’t my death supposed to be the payment in advance? But I’m still alive… Does that mean the demon didn’t kill him? Was that demon lying to me?”

Several days passed, and the man continued to wonder about what had happened.

Then, the demon appeared before him once again.

Demon: “…The contract has been fulfilled… Farewell…”

Man: “Wait! You said my death would be the payment! So why am I still alive?!”

Demon: “…Indeed, your death was the agreed-upon payment. And naturally, I collected it in full.”

The demon laughed, and having uttered those final words, vanished into thin air.
