- Hunger

If you know a demon’s true name, then you can exorcise it more easily, so "Hunger" is merely a codename for this high-level demon who is the most adept eater in the demon world. The search for more novel and delicious foods is Hunger’s most important activity. Even though he has the ability to swallow the entire world in one mouthful, from where to start eating is still an insignificant choice that must be made. In order to solve this question, he found a female fortune-teller. "Then, I want to know where I should start sampling this world." "Based on the outcome of my prophecy, you should go eastwards to seek a place called VirtuaReal. However my prophecy… You wait a second and hear me finish speaking!" Hunger didn’t pay attention to the latter half of the fortune-teller's sentence. All he needed was a name, other minor details were basically insignificant. But the moment before he put the VR building down his mouth, a young woman with black double ponytails prevented his bad behaviour. After going through some friendly negotiation, Hunger at last joined VR. Without waiting for him to inquire what he should do next, the young woman had already vanished. He seemed to have heard her say, "This demon is a little too strong, we must find a hero to check and balance him."
