Afterlife Department

3257: You're in a Special World, which has many factors to consider. There are also abilities present. Special Soul Huo Ling's condition must be affected by an unknown factor in that world.

0001: Copy.

Di San showed Yi Bing's reply to Gu Shi. Gu Shi sighed in relief. "This would do." He said. "0000 and 0001. If something unexpected happens, we don't know what will be the result." He told Di San. He remembered when he met Huo Ling before and was about to go to Huo Ling when Shen Sheng called for him. Gu Shi then realized, if ever he had distracted Yi Bing and Huo Ling and have said something he definitely shouldn't… 0001 is already scary.. How much more 0000?

Gu Shi forced these thoughts out of his head and he relaxed.

Special World – Zombie Ability Users.

"What's wrong?" Qi Shan asked when he saw Yi Bing was staring at his holographic screen for a long time.

"Nothing." Yi Bing answered and finally removed his gaze. He then saw Qi Shan leisurely sipping wine, a look of victory on his face. "What happened?" he asked. The reason why he was sticking to Qi Shan even though he wanted to run miles away from him is because he doesn't have any idea on how to raise a 'kid'. Qi Shan has always been competent and would be full of ideas, thus he endured Qi Shan's jokes and teasing him.

A look of satisfaction flashed in Qi Shan's eyes and he has a smug smile on his lips. "Lei Shan will finally make his move against this country's government." Qi Shan said, a triumphant tone in his voice. "This country is just the beginning." He added.

Yi Bing could never follow his thoughts. Having a protagonist as your task is really tiring and troublesome since protagonists will always be chased by troubles. They are a trouble-magnet. Thus, Yi Bing – even though he's 0001 and the first to work in the Afterlife Department, he chose simpler tasks. It proved his decision was right, since even a simple Huo Ling is already this troublesome.

Thinking this, he looked at the culprit Huo Ling who was sucking a baby's teeter. Since Huo Ling doesn't need to eat, Yi Bing didn't buy him milk. Heck, he is a 23-year old man, not an infant – even if he is now acting and thinking like one. If there would be a chance, Huo Ling would regain his memories, how will Huo Ling face these shameful things he has done? Yi Bing also knows how to be considerate, thus he didn't do anything overboard like making Huo Ling drink from a baby's milk bottle to humiliate him more. Huo Ling already lost face in front of Qi Shan. Fortunately, Lei Shan and the other zombies doesn't care about face. They already died and all, what's there to be shy about?

But, this way of thinking doesn't apply on Huo Ling. Yi Bing knows how thin Huo Ling's face is. If Huo Ling would learn of the things he had done while his mind regressed, Yi Bing could guess Huo Ling might commit suicide out of embarrassment. "0007." He called Qi Shan.

"Yeah?" Qi Shan is still immersed in happiness.

"I will be leaving with my assignment." Yi Bing said. "San Di already replied. He told me to find something strange. It must be what affected my assignment's mind." He explained.

"… shouldn't you stick to Lei Shan?" Qi Shan suddenly said.

"Why?" Yi Bing asked.

"Not only troubles, but strange things are also attracted by the protagonists." Qi Shan told Yi Bing.

Black lines covered Yi Bing's face. "No thanks." He answered. No wonder Qi Shan turned even stranger. It was due to the protagonists that his mentality has become strange. "We'll be leaving now." He said and rose from his seat. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

"Yeah. Take care." Qi Shan waved his hand.

"Oh, right." Yi Bing said when he remembered something. "Soul Eaters resurfaced in our world." He told Qi Shan. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"What?!" Qi Shan suddenly rose from his seat and his chair was overturned. "You say… Soul Eaters?!" he said.

Yi Bing nodded. "I also killed one before." He told Qi Shan about the Soul Eater in the S Apartment Building. "San Di and Gu Shi must have sent you a message, too. Better check it out." he told Qi Shan before he picked up Huo Ling and they teleported.

Qi Shan immediately checked his inbox and indeed, there are messages from Di san and Gu Shi. It was sent to him and Yi Bing – the ones who are out and currently doing their tasks, telling them about the situation in their world.

Their world is a Supernatural World. However, among all the worlds, it is the most stable. After the Hell was destroyed by the strange creatures called Soul Eaters, the Heaven sent the archangels to destroy all the Soul Eaters. What's terrifying about them is not only their ability to devour the soul, but also they can consume the souls' attributes. Thus, they can also use the souls' attributes. It would take them longer time to digest the souls with attributes, and longer time if the souls' attributes are stronger, but, in the end, if they could really digest the abilities then they would become stronger and harder to kill.

Thus, in the war 50,000 years ago, both sides have perished. They successfully killed the Soul Eaters, but many were sacrificed. However, for some reason, the gods noticed that the world had undergone a big change. Many tunnels leading to the other worlds have appeared. They discovered that the time and space in the other worlds are different from theirs. Then, after sending people to the other worlds, they found their world is the most stable.

Since the Hell has been destroyed, the number of souls in their world gradually increased. The order of reincarnation became chaotic. Since the reincarnation of the souls is limited in their own world, the world became unstable again when many people died and their soul slowly filled up their world. Thus, the highest and only one true god – Shen Taijun, decided to send the souls to the other worlds to reincarnate. However, since they will be foreign to those worlds, Shen Taijun sent people to monitor the souls that went to the other worlds. Seeing that the souls can adapt to the world after losing their memories – as followed in the previous reincarnation process, Shen Taijun permitted the reincarnation of the souls in the other worlds under the premise that someone will have to guide them after they died and be sent to another world to reincarnate. They cannot let something foreign in one world remain for too long. There are various rules in the other worlds that needed to be considered, too. Thus, they could only send the souls in another world again. This led to the creation of the Afterlife Department.

There's one more mission the people of the Afterlife Department needed to do aside from monitoring the souls – it is to destroy anything that might affect the afterlife of those who died. The ones to destroy are in the form of Soul Eaters.
