All of the other souls hearing this started to ponder over this as well. Why would they need to strengthen their souls in the afterlife and why only one year. Drew had a few ideas why, but he wasn't going to say some of them out loud, as they were crazy. His most plausible idea though was one he thought he had to ask " are we reincarnating". The old man hearing this responded " Yes you all will be reincarnating in one year, and as for why you need to strengthen your soul that's because of the river located in the lobby. That river is the river of reincarnation, and it will destroy your souls when you jump inside. After one year all of you will jump insinde."

All of the souls started clamoring when they heard that they will have to jump in that disastrous river. The old man seeing this muttered to himself " everytime". He then lifted his cane and hit the ground. The moment he did this, the soul that started the clamoring earlier crumbled into countless tiny pieces. " I told you not to interrupt me." Shivering is all these poor souls could do at the frightening realization that this old man could so easily shatter them. Just tap his cane on the floor and bang your dead.

" The reason you have to jump in this river is to reincarnate. The longer you flow down the river the more your soul is destroyed. The moment your soul enters the river the memories of your soul will be destroyed, so none of you will remember anything from this life. Also the lesser world's are located at the end of the river. So the longer you flow the lower the world you'll be reincarnated into. The lower worlds don't have as much energy in them so becoming strong is much more difficult in these worlds". He then gave everyone a moment to digest all of the information they were given today.

At this moment Drew was thinking hard about what to do.' How do I keep my memories. In all of the reincarnation stories, the Mc gets a huge advantage from keeping his memories. Damn this river, I don't believe  nobody has ever kept there memories. There has to be a way. Hmm I should ask that psycho old man has anyone kept there memories'. " Excuse me sir, but I want to know has anyone ever kept there memories". The old man, Robert, hearing this showed an amused expression on his face and said " yes" . Hearing this gave hope to not only Drew but all the other souls there as well. Then a thought struck Drew ' how. Having said a strong soul doesn't sound like it would save you and that's all we know for now. I'll have to wait and see what I can think of after I learn how to strengthen my soul'.
