The roaring sound of cannon, a smell of gun powder, the war cry of many brave men, pure white snow stained with bright red blood, feeling of cold that pierces deep into my bone and my human name. That is all the things I could remember after being reborn as white oni in heaven.

First thing I saw was three disappearing figure followed by two people with two small horns on their head screaming 'Sucess!' and a few days later begun to teach me all kinds of things.

Two years later I noticed abnormality of my body also a difference between normal Oni baby. First was my growth speed was insane, in just three days I already look like five years old child.

A second was the colour of my eyes is in reverse, I only had one horn.

Third I could see a black hole in everyone's body well almost everyone.

Then with curiosity, I asked from two oni's raising me.

I was an artificial oni created by combining the human soul with the essence of a forgotten god. Due to a sudden increase in the amount of soul arrive in many pantheons. Many of them faced a problem of not enough manpower resulting in all kinds of chaos in heaven or hell alike.

Then someone decided why not we create manpower ourselves. Usually, residents of heaven and hell are created from massive energy from that place or a usual natural way. So they used the first one as their base began to do their experiment and after destroying many souls later they created the first prototype which is me.

Yaay, Kanamori you are a clone.

I don't even know should I be laugh or cry.

I don't know what happened to other souls because I sent to King Yama's place to resolve big problems related to paperwork and demons right after I finished my education. Then to European Hell and heaven to resolve a conflict between demons and sinners.

Then back to King Yama's place to punish extraordinary sinners, then Greek's underworld followed by Mayan one. Just like that, I moved between many pantheons doing all kinds of work without knowing it is already 412 years passed.

Now things become normal, pantheons found ways to resolve problem-related to manpower, the total amount of souls arrive in heaven and hell became stable. Everything became nice and smooth until the world's treaty comes in.

In nutshell, international law between our world gods and other world gods. Because of that, souls from another world also began to a system of our world creating even more confusion and chaos. But also souls from our world also went to another world's system.

That will lessen our work? Nope!

Because of all kinds of bullshit powers like magic or qi, not just ordinary souls enter our world. As a result cheating or killing newcomers to run away, trying to escape into the reincarnation cycle without going through check. Sometimes they arrive without any life record or have damaged souls like them.

That is not it all sometimes some idiots from another world will attack which is like pulling a pin out of the grenade, putting under your pillow.

Well back to the present.

"What is that thing saying ?"

Cabrakan-sama said with bright red eyes.

Thank god, he doesn't understand the Chinese language, but still, he gets a gust of what is this idiot saying.

"Cabrakan-sama he is saying how big and mighty you are."

Smile, smile don't show him any sign of hesitation.

"Hmm? looks like he talking down on me ?"

Why his observation that good today ?! didn't he got poisoned by a duck?

"No, it is not, it is a way that people speak the same language as those people showing their respect."

As if I know anything about their culture except their language. I quickly put my piece over Cabrakan's piece capturing it then I continue to move my piece continue jumping over next pieces. In the end, I successfully seized 9 of his pieces then placing my piece on kings row. Which is now Cabrakan has expression looks like he about to murder me.

But what am I supposed to do?

I couldn't resist the urge to seize it, those pieces looked so tempting.

Then I saw Cabrakan takes his piece and rising up above his head.

Oh, no he gonna do it again.

*BANG!*

He slammed piece into the board. With a loud sound, both pieces and the board turned into the dust. Damn! This checker made of pure Mythril, but he turned into dust.

"This board is broken. We can't carry on, so this game doesn't count. Bring another one."

Said he laid back to his seat.

What an unreasonable god he is. Well, at least he is not lashing out or taking out his anger in some way he is better than 80% of gods. Also, he created a perfect opportunity for me.

"Cabrakan-sama I want to play as well, but it will take more than three years to make another board that able withstand your great power."

Well, in fact, it takes one day to complete if I bribe Fafnir with some treasure but if I do that this kind thing will happen again and again. There is no way out if I win he will destroy board if I lose he will send those souls into an underworld. That means it will be deducted from my salary which I don't want to.

Hearing my compliment, dangerous light in Cabrakan's eye decreases.

"Well, since that game doesn't count, little demon play with me again when new board comes. Take those things away, but in exchange present me that jar of exotic drink. "

He said while opening his palm.

Oh, looks like he liked it huh. then that is good cause I already prepared one jar in advance.

"Here Cabrakan-sama, but beware you must drink within one year or else it will be spoilt."

I gave him a simple jar with a tightly sealed lid.

"Good, now go little demon but don't forget the promise."

Taking sniff from a jar a faint smile slowly appears on Cabrakan's expression and removes his domain's seal with a simple swipe giving me permission to leave his domain. Before he changes his mind, I put those souls in my pouch and disappears into a void.
