I was in the temple with Verdos after using a spell I saw my whole life again and now I am standing on the ground reflecting bright purple and red hue sky covered with few clouds.
"You finally opened your eyes!"
A man with a black robe stood in front of me, He was tall with red eyes looking down on me,
"So you are the trouble!" He sighed,
"trouble? who? who are you? and where am I?" I never saw such a place and a person with such discomforting aura,
"Easy there kid, where ever you are now isn't by your choice and also now your destination won't be chosen by you but by me!"
He had a somehow arrogant and prideful smile on his face,
"Who are you?" I looked at him,
"before that Aaris Ralkier, I want to ask who are you?"
he closed up to me,
"You already know who I am then why are you asking this? and where am I ?"
"I see, I didn't tell you...
you are currently standing on Gates of Karma"
The Gates of Karma?
"that means-"
"Yes, You are dead, and just like every soul after passing the world of mortals, they reach here to walk blindly and unaware where they are going recollecting everything of what they did in their life, their good and bad deeds decide whether they walk towards
The Gate of Light, The Heavens,
or The Gate of Night, The Hell,
Heavens either offer your soul to
reincarnate or desire to stay there,
on the other hand, Hell only offers you punishment for your sins,
but for some reason, you stood still at the same place" he raises his eyebrows and looked annoyed,
"and didn't move an inch why? didn't you recall your past life?"
"I did!" I didn't what should I do or say I felt a weird calmness there,
"then why didn't you walk up to your deserving end? that's what you are thinking, right? Do you know why? I can tell you-"
he smirked his arrogance started to annoy me after all, I was seeking peace after death yet he is irritating me.
"I do!"
"Then let me tell yo- wait what? you know why?"
"yes, I do!" I think I know the reason I was not judged by the Gates, maybe because now my soul isn't just mine, it is fused with the lost souls through Blood Silk, maybe that's why my soul refused to move it was contradicting the lost souls and that made stood still instead of walking towards The Gates.
"Yes, you are right but not completely" He sighed,
"wait you can read my mind?"
"well since you do not possess your mind here I can just listen to your thoughts echoing in this void anyway don't you think something is wrong here?" he moved his hands and I looked around the place,
"The Gates-"
"Correct! The Gates isn't here, in the first place, they should appear here the moment your soul entered the Void but for some reason, they aren't here, let me tell you, this never happened ever since The Gates we're created" He unexpectedly looked serious,
"Because I don't possess a single soul?"
"Can you explain?" he smiled a little,
"I mean my soul is now linked with the demon's Souls."
"Because you don't possess a single soul?
Yes,
Because your soul is linked with Lost Souls,
Wrong!" he pointed his finger to me,
"there something you should know,
first The Gates did appear when you came here, but they broke the next moment after they appeared" He was grimacing at me,
"what, The Gates broke?"
"Yes, they did why do you think, I am here in place of the Keepers?" He looked weary of me,
"Keepers?"
" The Keepers were the ones who acted as the Servants of The Gates of Karma they protected this void and prevent souls from running away from the Underworld, and any wither beings trying to pass through the world of Mortals, but because of you, I have to come out myself and force seal The Gates,
you can count yourself lucky that your soul will be judged by ME!"
"I see, but then why did The Gates break in the first place?" I asked him,
"Because your Soul is broken too!" Suddenly his arrogant smile disappeared from his face, "Not because of your Spell nor Because of this Demons' currently raging to go out berserk, but because you possessed a broken soul in your life, that's why you never possessed the normal amount of mana" he crossed his arms,
"why? why my soul is broken? it doesn't make sense if it was broken since my birth then why didn't I DIE?" I cried out,
"Because you weren't born with it" he sighed,
"I don't have forever but now, since you are an anomaly I can't let you pass through any Gate it must be judged by your own, so I will eradicate your soul right here, right now" A Long Dark Scythe appeared in his hands and he gently put the Scythe around my neck,
"But why? you didn't answer all of my questions why I am like this? who did this to me? who are you?"
"If I tell you my name your soul will pass on to The Depths, and I think you don't deserve that, you never asked for it, for my name you don't have any need to know it, but since The Souls inside you also have to meet their end, I'll have your Souls destroyed"
His eyes didn't have any pity nor it despised me but it was only his own will,
"Do you have any last words?"
"why don't you ask the Thousands of Souls currently inside me"
"well, I did, each and every soul desire the same, Revenge!"
"I am not even surprised you asked thousands of souls"
I looked at his eyes and the aura he owned,
"you probably answered them all, am I right?" it doesn't even surprise me now, whoever he is, he isn't just a mere existence
"I really want to know who you are, are you a God?" I looked up upon his Scythe, whatever I ask or wish now is worthless now, my whole existence will be erased along with the lost souls,
"Hmm A God? well I stand above them, So I need to create The Gates again,
I wish I could've answered all of the questions,
you were really a good kid throughout your life honestly it doesn't feel nice to end everything like this"
"I bet you aren't sad either," I smiled at him,
"you aren't special throughout the World created by him, well you are a little" I felted his grip tightened on The Scythe,
sigh,
"I will tell you my name as your wish but, just the moment before you are completely obliterated, that's how I can at least answer your last words"
Even in the end, I am in the pity of others, It doesn't matter anyway I died without completing my purpose,
I failed to protect my mother neither I was able to expose the crimes of Tresguys' I wasn't able to keep my promise to Miss Ilin, to Sir. Sirlin neither my Promise to my Mother that I will become strong,
in the end, I died weakly and pathetic, Even if I could've ascended to The Heavens or Reincarnation it would be worthless to me, ending my soul that is full regrets I don't think is a bad idea after all, but I wanted to tell my mother I didn't give up, until the end.
[MAY GOD BRING PEACE TO YOU]
The last words I heard,
The Scythe went through my neck but it didn't hurt, neither it made any cut, the sensation of charm wrapped me, slowly and gently..then I heard his name,
"I AM AN-"
I Woke up in the Temple Again.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
