A Nameless Monster


Long time ago, there was living a monster, which didn’t have a name. The Monster asked to anyone that he met.

“Would you like to give your name? I will give you everything that you want.”

They agreed to give their names, and the Monster enters to their own body. Therefore the monster had a name.

But, the monster felt so hungry.

“Look at me, look at me! Monster in my body already growing up bigger and bigger!”

And the monster ate everyone who had given him names.

The monster wandered again. Then, he met with the little prince at a kingdom who agreed to give him his name.

The monster holds out his hunger so that he able holds out in the little prince’s body too. But one day, the monster not too endured again. The little prince said to his father—the king—and the nobles in his castle.

“Look at me, look at me! Monster in my body already growing up bigger and bigger!”

The hunger was too strong for the monster. The little prince ate the family, the citizens, and all the people in his castle. He ate everyone until not left over.

The Nameless Monster now had a name. But, no one around him was able to called him with that name.

Too bad… although Johann was a good name… for the monster…
