Death… And Me

Chapter 3 - Together Once More!



Chapter 3 - Together Once More!

Death and Rean passed through the colored Portal and fell directly into the River of Forgetfulness. Both Death and Rean's Soul started to change shape almost immediately after that. Their minds got fussy, and they couldn't tell right from left. Still, Death made sure to hold Rean and not let him escape.

Suddenly, both Soul lost their shape. At the same time, they were being converted into Pure Soul Energy. But it was at this moment that that faint Light inside Rean's Soul started to get brighter! Both Rean and Death's Soul Energies then began to revolve around it together.??

That Light then started to gather all their memories and emotions. Not only that, but the Light also started to change! What was just a White Light before, now became half White and half Dark. However, Death was right! That Light really had the power to keep both of their memories somehow. Unfortunately, Rean and Death already lost consciousness.

Suddenly.

Death and Rean, obviously, didn't hear or see anything.

The River of Forgetfulness tried to take those memories away, but the Light's power was a lot stronger than it. In the end, every single memory, emotion, or anything related to that was sent into that Light. With the memories disappearing altogether, the River of Forgetfulness felt like its target was gone. The River didn't have a mind. It only did what it was supposed to do. With no more memories to wipe out, it would simply start the next process.

Both their Soul Energies were then released by the Light so that the River of Forgetfulness could do its job. The cleansing process went for several years, but during all this time, both Souls had always stayed close to the Light of their Memories.

Finally, both Soul Energies finished passing through the River of Forgetfulness. From there, they seemed to be dragged by some kind of supernatural power, which tried to send them into another portal. In fact, that power was supposed to get just a single Soul each time, but the Light acted as a glue that kept Death and Rean's Soul Energies together.

But there was a problem. The moment that Rean and Death Soul Energies were about to enter that Portal, that Light began to get even brighter! The space around it looked like to distort, and the Portal where they were supposed to be sent into disappeared. Right after, another portal that wasn't supposed to be there materialized right in front of both Souls.

That supernatural power from before tried to stop Rean and Death from falling into it. But the Light also acted as a barrier that prevented that power from getting close. Rean and Death Soul Energies then passed through this new Portal, which closed right after they entered.

Usually, the Portal that disappeared would send Rean and Death to be reformed as new Souls. After that, they would enter a new life form that was being created. Like a baby, for example. That would then conclude their Reincarnation Process.

But the Portal that the Light opened for them led both Soul Energies outside of the Universe. Or to be more precise, it led them to a completely different plane altogether!

In this new plane, the laws were completely different.

To start, the Souls in the Reincarnation Path are a lot stronger than they are. Death and Rean's Soul Energies looked as if they could be smashed by any other Souls there.

That can't be helped. This plane is a place where Cultivation Reigns Supreme! Everyone in this place can cultivate. Even if you don't cultivate at all, just the natural accumulation of Spiritual Energy will strengthen your Soul to an entirely different level. It is completely different from the plane from where Death and Rean came from.

Once they arrived, Rean and Death's Souls were once again sent into another River of Forgetfulness. However, Death and Rean had already received the cleansing from the previous River. Because of that, they were not kept there for several years like it was back in the other Universe. It only took them around a week to be once more dragged out of the River.

Just like before, a portal opened, and they were sent inside. This time, the Light did not obstruct this process. From there, Rean and Death's Soul Energies were sent directly into the end of the Path of Reincarnation. Of course, this one was completely different from before.

Rean and Death didn't know anything about it, though. They were in a state of hibernation at the moment, and the only thing that kept their identities was that Light.

While passing through that Portal, millions of images could be seen moving at breakneck speeds around them. Each one of those images represented a new life being born in this new Universe.

Humans, Beasts, Demon Plants, Sentient Objects, Spirits... The options were unlimited!

Finally, they entered the final stage of Reincarnation, and their Soul Energies were once again reformed into new Souls. From that point, the Light began to send their memories back into each of their minds. Because they were not inside the River of Forgetfulness anymore, nothing tried to stop this process.

Finally, Rean and Death's new Souls were awakened.

Rean looked around and felt lost. The last thing he remembers is the time he and Death fell into the River of Forgetfulness. From that point onwards, everything went black.

"Where is this?"

Soon, he heard Death's laugh beside him.

"We left the River of Forgetfulness! Hahahahaha! I still have my memories, great!"

Death then looked at Rean and snorted.

"Still, if not for you, I would not have passed through this torment."

Rean's mouth twitched.

"Did you forget who opened that gate in the first place? If you had let me go, nothing like that would have happened."

Death, of course, didn't take that low.

"How many times I have to tell you? If I had left you like that, your Soul would dissipate later. Your only choice was to be reincarnated, that's all."

Rean decided to ignore that part, though.

"Whatever. What will happen now?"

Death then explained.

"I haven't seen this place before. Still, since we are out of the River of Forgetfulness, it means that we entered the last stage of Reincarnation. Our Souls have already been reconstructed, so all that awaits us now is to be sent into a new Life Form."

Rean was delighted to hear it.

"Does that mean I will be born again with all my memories? Hahahaha! Great!"

Death snorted but didn't deny that.

"Anyway, this is where we part ways. Soon, our Souls are going to be pulled into one of the new life forms, and we are going to reincarnate somewhere in the Universe. I hope to never see your face in my life again."

Death wasn't afraid of being reborn. With his understanding of his home Universe, he could use his connection with the underworld and return there. After that, he can simply reconstruct his own Soul as a Death Spirit once more. As for Rean... fuck that guy!

Rean, of course, couldn't be happier to be separated from this troublesome thing as well.

Death and Rean then moved away from each other... or so they tried. As soon as the distance between themselves reached 100 or so meters, some kind of power pulled them back!

Their Soul slammed against each other, which made both parties feel quite dizzy for a few moments. Only when they recovered did they notice a faint white and dark thread connecting their Souls. At the very center of this line, one could see that soft Light that had kept their memories until now.

Before, Death could only see a White Light, but now, that Light was both White and Dark. The black color side of the thread was connected to his Soul, while the White was connected to Rean's one.

Both Death and Rean were taken aback by that. But before they could even discuss this issue, they felt that their Souls began to be dragged away against their will.

"The hell? What is it?"

Death immediately replied.

"We are probably reincarnating!"

Rean and Death looked at each other, and the White and Dark thread that is connecting their Souls. Seeing that, they felt like crying.

"I don't want to reincarnate with you!"

Still, that Light had created some kind of connection between Death and Rean. Because of that, they simply couldn't get too far away from each other. That being said, they couldn't Reincarnate in different places anymore. That had to reincarnate together!

However, Rean and Death are, after all, different Souls. It is not like they can merge or use the same body. With no other option, the Reincarnation Path of this new plane could only do one thing...

Death and Rean... had to Reincarnate as Twins!
