Risuke Otake: I did not know why I could not escape this man. I was so mad, I wanted to prove that I can do as I please. I wanted to prove that this stupid old guy can not control me.
Therefore, I decided to kill him. But before that, I would make him confess that I am not his hostage while threatening him with his life. The easiest way to do this is when he sleeps. He is vulnerable at that moment. I could stab him in a fatal spot without killing him and then make him say what I want him to say. I was getting hyped every time I was imagining the scenario of him saying that I am not his hostage and that I could easily escape.
You know, the old man has a really trained body. He may be old in age but his body is full of muscles. He is way taller than me and I definitely can not deal with him in a fight without weapons. For that reason, if he realizes what I'm planning before I get the stab on him, it is over.
I waited patiently for a week or two in order to make him think that I had accepted my fate and that I would follow him. I was planning to catch him off guard.
And that's how it happened, two weeks later I put my plan into action. We had just returned home and the old man was really tired. The whole day we were gathering some ingredients that he needed. He went to sleep and some hours later I was standing next to him holding a blood-lusting and dangerous knife. He was sleeping so deep, that he could not understand that someone was in the room, even with the floor planks screeching.
It was time. As quickly as possible, I stabbed him with great power in the umbilical region, right under the belly button. He was lying on his back so it was easy to hit it perfectly. He suddenly opened his eyes and coughed blood. Seeing the sudden fear in his eyes made me happy. "What now you old b*stard!? What happens now that your hostage is superior?" I spoke, while I was pushing the knife even more inside his belly. The blood was all over the bed. I was causing him great pain.
"Wh-what are you doing...fe-fella'? Wh-Why are you doing this to me?" he wondered. Watching the despair in his eyes, I was enjoying it so much. Yes, I am superior to you. You are a trashcan, you are an old idiotic scum compared to me. These were my thoughts. The word "superior" was so attractive to my mind. Every time I was thinking of it I was feeling so beautiful. I kept laughing from the joy and then I started stabbing him constantly in the same spot, making him cough up blood again and again. Tears came out of his eyes. His glance, it was like he was asking: "Why?". And yet I was feeling no empathy whatsoever, only joy, joy from the pain that he was going through. "Say it old man! Say that I am superior to you! You can't control me and I don't need your protection! Risuke Otake is superior! SAY IT!" I demanded.
"Ri-Risuke...? S-so that is your name. Th-that's a beautiful name..." he responded.
I got so much frustrated at that moment. I started moving the knife inside his belly and he started screaming. It was a matter of time before he would die from blood loss.
"I-I'm...I'm sorry Risuke...*" he phrased with a desperate look
I immediately took out the knife of his belly and stabbed him right onto his heart, leading his life to an end. "This is not what I told you to say" I replied. He stopped breathing in an instant. I had successfully killed the powerful old man. But I was so mad. He never told me what I wanted to hear. He preferred death than simply saying what I told him to.
I took the knife once again and started stabbing him all over his body, even though he was dead. I could not do something for my frustration. After a while, I simply l lied down on the floor, without a particular reason. I was feeling so weird. It was my first time killing a person. But it seems that he was not a person after all.
"*...you will remain my hostage" the old man finished his phrase from before.
