Chapter 7: The Fallen Realm

Fallen Realm.

Those who died in the world were gathered here. In that place, there wasn't any building nor there was a single tree. Everything was plain, flat and there were none.

A spatial rift appeared in the sky. Then someone came out from the rift. "Hey look, looks like a newcomer is coming." someone told the others about the rift. "What does it have to do with us. We already dead and the only thing we can do are waiting for the judgment day. And that day is so fucking long I can't stand the torture!"

The only problem left for those people were their sins when they were life. Even though this is just a place for those souls to wait until the judgment day, they were treated according to their deeds. Those who do great good deeds were treated like a king in the world.

But those who do great bad deeds ended up being tortured by various means possible.

"Where is this place?" this newcomer was, of course, Marco who just recently died. The only thing he saw before death was a dagger that pierced his neck. And the next thing he saw was something that retrieved his soul.

"Let's see what deeds this guy mostly do!" the other wanted to see what the treatment for this man was. Suddenly there was a giant hammer that covered the sky above. "Oh, that's judgment hammer. This guy is definitely a sinner! Can't believe it we got a brother in arms. Hahahahaha."

The hammer then went down at terrifying speed. Marco felt dread to see the judgment hammer for the first time. The instant it touched the land, all of the sinners including Marco were smashed into a pulp until their bodies were flat.

Sounds of screaming were heard through the realm. Some men were tried to beg to stop the torture but it was for naught. 

But the next second, their body started to reform and completely return to normal. "Motherfucker, that was hurt as hell! How can God be so cruel to us!"

But then a sound heard in his ears that said, "This is just a show off for your real punishment later. You are a sinner and almost never do a good deed and you asked God to be merciful toward you after he gave you a chance? Dream on!"

The man could not refute because what the speaker said was true.

But then the second spatial rift appear again and a blond haired young man fell from the rift. This man was Raket and he also had that same question, "Where is this place?"

Like usual, the people watched him know what treatment this realm would give him. But then someone with a very handsome face greeted Raket. "Who are you?" Raket asked.

"Me? I am your good deeds man. I want to bring you to a certain place, would you like to follow me?"

"Oh, damn it. That guy is seriously lucky. He will enjoy his stay at The Fallen Realm." the other could only stare at Raket with envy. It was a rare thing that someone could accumulate so many good deeds, furthermore with less bad deeds.

"Okay," replied Raket. But then Marco protest with his mouth that said, "He is the same as me, doing the same thing as I did and I also did what he did so why I was being tortured here while he was not?"

"Remember what is your intention when you joined the army?" the sound questioned Marco. Marco then remembered his intent back then. 'I want to become a famous soldier. My name will be spread throughout the continent and I will become rich!'

"So what's wrong with that?" Marco retorted. "Ck, ck, ck. He really has such selfish intent. No wonder he was being tortured by the judgment hammer. Hey, buddy. Just give up your reasoning. Your intent to do something and act according to it is an important factor whether you will be tortured or will be at peace."

When they were still talking, a third rift appears. This time, it was Luki who was entering The Fallen Realm. 

"Hmm, this place is?" but when Luki saw his body, a light greater than the sunlight was being emitted. Suddenly the sound could be heard in Luki's ear.

"Immortal ones, because you have [Immortal Decree] I will send you to the world again."

But Luki asked, "First, can you tell me where am I?". Then the sound could be heard again and said, "This is The Fallen Realm, where the dead wait the judgment day. All the dead people from trillion world gathered here."

When Luki heard that, his heart trembled. "Can, can I asked you a favor?" asked Luki with a slight hope in his eyes. "Yes, and I think I know what your request is."

Everyone could only dumbfounded by the scene that happened before their very eyes. This never happened before so they focused their attention to Luki.

"Do you know where my parents are?"
