“Hm hm hm hm hm~”

A pale white-haired teenage boy walked leisurely while humming in a cheerful-looking voice, with a gentle tone that everyone was sure that he had experienced a happy life.

The teenage boy had pale white hair with black striped eyes that looked inhumane.

She wore all-black clothing, which depicted the theme of her own sin, with an extra red scarf around her neck.

The ruby-colored red scarf wrapped gently around his neck, revealing its existence that was in stark contrast to the surrounding scenery.

He looked like an ordinary High School boy, however, there were no signs of adult understanding in the teenager's facial expressions.

He looked innocent, like a child just starting his blissful childhood.

There were dark circles around her dark eyes, looking so melancholy from wherever you saw them.

Hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm~

“Really, this is so awesome!”

There was a hint of admiration behind his apathetic voice, he narrowed his eyes in a strange manner, and smiled gently as if he was gaining worldly blessings.

The teenager grimaced, in a way that made everyone think— She was happy.

Of course, anyhow.

The purpose of human life is to be happy.

Hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm~

“Aaaahh~ want how many times I feel it, it's really very amazing!”

He continued to repeat his words, as if he was praising and admiring the beauty of the unforgivable sight.

It was such a beautiful sight, where trees and flowers adorned the entire place in red that no one would forget their beauty.

The tree hides its sin, as a strong wind hits the leaves shady of its color.

The flower laughed, feeling happy about the arrival of the red butterflies that perched on their flower petals.

It was a form of natural beauty that had even surpassed what they had imagined.

The world revolves, hoping that all humans perpetuate this happy moment.

“Aa, aaah... To, long. I...”.

—It was the sound of dirty insects gathering in this beautiful garden.

The insect crawled, on the fertile ground, beautiful red flowers. His hand was stalling desperately, trying to grab the teenager's ankle.

But, because he didn't want anyone to interrupt his special moment.

He could only smile gently at the insect and ignore it in a polite manner.

He continued on his way, humming very happily...

—As he enjoys the beauty of the red garden which is all made of hundreds of human corpses.

Adding, adding, adding, continuously shaping itself.

Until he got the karma he had been craving.

Somewhere in a different world, a teenage boy immortalizes his life to the form of happiness his parents have taught him.

The teenager believes that his strong desire to gain happiness and spread happiness is the most beautiful thing that has become the mission of his life.

It was in a dark room, with the household furniture already in disarray.

The atmosphere in the house was gloomy, as a skinny woman hugged her child very tightly.

The teenager hugged her as well in return, feeling at ease as she felt the warmth from her beloved mother's body.

“It's okay, mom. As long as mom is happy, I'm fine.”

Hearing that, the extremely thin-looking woman called 'Mother' by the teenager—who was her own child, released her affection and smiled widely.

They both look very happy by the harmonious family familiarity.

The mother hugged her child very tightly and was full of her boundless love.

Likewise with the teenager, he likes his mother, which mana—

—The love is too far apart than it should be.

“So... when will mom kill me?”

The teenager asked with an innocent smile that anyone would gasp at as he uttered the sentence with a face that was like a child asking when he could go on a picnic.

Her mother was crying listening to her.

And answered his son's question with a proud smile on his face.

“Aah, aaaahh, please forgive mom, baby! How could you forget the most important thing you had to do?! Please forgive your mother for wasting time on useless things!”

“Do not worry mom, I have no problem.”

“Oooohh! Just incredible! Just incredible! you really grew up to be a great mother's son! As for your mother, it is only the person toIoI who even forgets the day of happiness of his own son!”

“Mom don't have to worry, I love mom as she is.”

“REALLY! REALLY IS! REALLY IS! REALLY IS! REALLY IS! REALLY IS! You're such an amazing kid! You grew up perfectly!”

The mother hugged her child more tightly, and began to express her happiness by pulling her hair out.

His eyes bulged, shedding profuse tears that looked sore as you imagined them.

Then, he buried his son's head into his embrace, and said in a faint tone.

“Just relax, baby. Mom will kill you! I will definitely kill you and give you the happiness you should have had! Anyway, mom loves you so much!”

That's a very nonsensical word. They have no idea what humanity is, and what madness is.

The understanding of their happiness has strayed far, which has not even been saved.

“Yeah, I love mom too much. If I can, I also want to kill mother.”

“You really are an adult until you start to know what love is. Someday, I'm sure this mother's son will be a great person.”

“But ma'am, I want to die.”

“Oh yes, you're right, forgive mom, I forgot again.”

“It's okay, mom is always like that.”

The two of them laughed together, adding that little moment was a bit of time from the memory of both of them.

The relationship between the child and the mother looks very good, but common sense and the logic of the definition of the word 'good' no longer symbolize the happiness that should be.

Everything is so absurd, everything is beyond human logic.

This intersection between a happy and crazy family, was only comparable to two strings of intertwined threads.

Then—

“Mmmppphh!! Mmmpphhh!!”

It was a strange sound that did not come from the two of them.

It came from the corner of the room, where there were other people besides them.

He was a middle-aged man who looked a little thin and disgusting with his dirty appearance.

The man wore the office suit of a lowly clerk, and acted like a silly person when he was ignored from a different point of view.

He was lying there in a helpless state.

His mouth was closed using black duct tape, locking it so that he could not scream.

His hands were tied by a rope, making him unable to move to escape.

The pitiful voice kept him out, all of it coming from fear as the child and mother glanced at him.

“Of course, father will also we kill. Because we also love dad.”
