The radiance from the sky reached the hole inside a tree, waking up a demon inside. He was awakened as the ray hit his eyes, forcing him to open it. Dell slowly opened his eyes, trying to get used to his sight first. He yawned and scratched his hair, feeling uncomfortable sleeping while sitting. After he adjusted his memories, he remembered everything happened yesterday.

"Ah, yes, now I remember"

The young demon looked around him to found out he was the only one who stay inside the hole.

"Where is she?"

The refreshing air in the morning has made him decide to take a flight around the city. For him, it was rare to be able woke up so early. Usually he would wake up when the sun was at its highest peak, but today he woke up just when the sun was about to rise. He stands at the peak of radio tower, showered by the ray of light which shined towards him. He yawned again, feeling not having enough sleep.

Once the light has fully landed on every part of his body he turned around only to find out another familiar face in front of him.

"What now, Ted?" asked Dell in pisses tone

"You're rude, I only come to check whether you are doing your job properly or not" Ted replied

"Leave me alone" after he done saying it, Dell sat at the top of radio tower. Ted sighed at his attitude and continued speaking, "…. You look pale"

"Stop this nonsense, since when Demon get sick" Dell spoke without looking at his direction, his eyes just directed towards the gray city blanketed in front of him.

"This is not fully nonsense. It's been a while since you look so pale. Did The Angel really annoy you that much?"

"Yeah … you could say so"

"You are not surprised?"

"Why would I? As I know the high ranked fallen angel, Ted Kasane know everything in this world better than anyone"

"You are exaggerating"

"I only use hyperbole on my words. And I bet you are the one who told her my name"

"That's correct"

Dell turned his head a bit and glared at him, "You really like to annoy me don't you?"

"… I won't assume that as annoying you, you are the one who asked for a companion, Father heard your wish and made it come true, what else you are not dissatisfied with?"

He looked back at the city below him, placing his hand below his chin to support his head. "I never said I want an Angel as my companion"

Ted sighed again, "Anyway … you should tell me already …. What's … the reason Father punishes you?"

"Didn't you heard about it, it's because I hold envy inside me"

"… As for your information, it's only a camouflage to hide your true sin"

"If you want to know, why don't you ask Father about it? He will tell you"

Ted chuckled a bit. Dell find it strange, why he suddenly chuckling.

"What's so funny?"

"As I would say, if by asking like this it would annoy you, why would so hasty to find the answer?"

"Man … someday I will pluck those arrogant wings of yours"

"Feel free to do it. You should know what happen next after you done it"

Dell turned his head at him with angry glare which replied by Ted's humiliating looks. The young demon leaned himself on the metal bar to relax and start to speak again, "Fine if you want to know that much I will tell you"

"That's too fast"

"You want it or not?"

"Alright, alright, you're the boss"

After he make sure Ted is completely silence, Dell open his mouth and speak.

"The incident where I was drowned inside the sea of envy was not completely a camouflage"

"… How so?"

"It's true that I have seed of envy inside me. But actually that's not the true crime I commit"

"What's the reason you hold envy?"

The young demon stay silent for a while, he raised his head and looked towards the sky filled with clouds gathering together.

"I envy those Angels at heaven"

Ted stays silence, he then continues

"Everybody up in heaven … always have smile on them. While I don't, I feels being an angel to guide human is a boring job so I envy how they could enjoy stay like that despite the having that kind of job"

"That's an important job, you should be proud of it"

"The problem is I don't! I have been living with Envy towards my own companion, without I realize the envy turn to hate. So … One day … I went to human's world …. And …."

"And?"

"… I saw something … in a moment I feels like my memories is skipped, the next thing I know … I am grabbing The Death Scythe I steal from Death and ripping those human souls wildly"

"That's … totally crazy"

"… That time … I don't know what possess my mind, I just controlled completely by anger"

"What did you saw?"

Dell stands up and started to flap his black wings, "Madness"

"Madness?"

"Hey, aren't you asking too much already, your break time gonna over soon"

Ted looked at his watch, "its till ten more minutes, besides your story is not done yet"

"I am not gonna tell you more than this, so buzz off"

Done saying it Dell flapped his wings and fly away

The six winged demon flipped open his book and write something before he closed it. "Ah well, I got enough information. Its matter of time before you spill the bean"

The young demon took out another cigarette from his pocket and lit it with flame from his hand. He keeps walking on the path to The Great Tree while breathing out smoke, at the same time also refreshing his memories. The things which constantly appearing inside his memories was the scream of children, a man holding butcher knife and running girl. Everything just circling around his head, the more he thinks about it, the more he could felt the scream of the child stung his ears, the smirk of the man disgusted him and the footsteps from the running girl drove him mad.

"Madness, huh. No wonder the world ends so fast"

He stopped his step the moment he saw the Angel in front of him who was planting a new seed near the white flower he planted. Gumi was so busy till she didn't notice him. She is having fun digging the ground to plant for a new seed. While digging she kept humming which disgust Dell even more.

"Tch" Dell spitted out the cigarette in his mouth, the flavor of the cigarette becomes sour by her humming sound.

Gumi noticed the sounds of the cigarette hitting the ground, she turned around and smile. Her smile was replied by frowned face from Dell.

"Hey "Dell shouted at her

"Hmm? What is it?" replied Gumi with giggles

"How could you enjoy your job?"
