In your error, it says that Discord.js requires Node.js at v16.6.0, and npm at v7.0.0 (as it says below, extracted from your error).

The current versions you have are extremely low, so I recommend updating Node.js every month.

To update Node.js, download the installer from nodejs.org. When you run the installer, it will automatically delete the old version.

Once you've updated Node.js and npm to their required versions (or higher), then you can run the install command, and it should install then.

Your node & npm versions are older. Update them and make sure your local account name doesn't have non-ASCII characters.
