Third person's pov

"Stop!." Mark said as he grabbed and pulled back the supposed demon's waist and they fall back on their butts about two meters away from the dog. The sound of a bottle dropping to the ground is heard as some of it's content spilled.

Mark opened his eyes at the noise and sees a bottle which contained dog food as the design displays. Mark's mouth agape at the sight and looked to the man in front of him who is now peering at his back and looking to his eyes.

"I-I'm so sorry, I thought you were a umm..it's nothing! I'm so sorry!" Mark said as he stands up, collect all the bits of dog food that was spilled and bowed apologetically to the man. He then handed the bottle to the man's hand but the other didn't seem to stand up or reply to him.

Mark feels that his heart skipped a beat even though he has a frozen heart.

Did he forget to translate their language to the human's language? But he's sure he synced it up based on the location their in right now.

Mark glanced to his side to look at his surroundings; he recognized the letter displays as a hangul which means they are currently in South Korea right now. He looked back to the man on the ground again who is still staring at him and then he offered a hand to help the man up. The said man accepted it after staring at Mark's hands for who knows how long. The man is now fully up when they heard a desperate bark.

The man let go of his hands to go fed the dog. The man takes his time very long before the dog finished all of the content in the bottle. Even though the dog is hungry, it is still too weak to move, trembling body, and it's stomach grumbling even if it is eating. Mark stayed frozen standing on the ground behind the man. He didn't know what to do but it is certainly considering to just disappearing back to heaven. He didn't move anyway and just waited for the dog to finish his food.

The dog falls asleep after, and the man stand up and faced him. The man looked at the place they were currently in, it is kinda secluded which would means the dog is left to the box there to die. After a while, the man ended up looking to him.

"I'm sorry again, I thought you would do something bad, and that's very inconsiderate of me." Mark said to the man, mentally reminding himself for translating the language and he didn't bow but instead stared back at the man.

"Are you angry?" Mark said as he speaked again because the man is not replying on bit.

"I'm not." Said the man

"Oh, I kinda thought you were, since you're not smiling and staring at me like I did something wrong." Mark smiled, his bright smile appeared on his face as he got relieved. Which disappears as fast because the man is still not making any emotion on his face.

"You are angry, aren't you?." Mark assured.

"No."

"You are."

"No."

". . . . ." This is the first time Mark had encountered such an emotionless person. Mark thought that maybe the red alert is for this man, not the dog but the red alert which is ringing to his ears disappears earlier as the dog begin to fall asleep.

"Do you have any problem? You can say it to me and I would help you." Mark said as he approached the man and clasped his hands with his.

The man's mouth formed a shape to speak something, twice, but closed his mouth instead, the small audible sound he emitted is not heard by Mark, which is the first time that Mark didn't understand someone, he has the angel's ear after all, there is no sounds in earth that he can't hear, even the person's heartbeat. Mark stilled. Why is he not hearing any heartbeat from this ma—

"I'm a demon." The red haired man said.
