Chapter 77: I was merely taking a stroll (1/2)

Since there is life, there is death.

Arius is the god of death. A primordial god. A high tier god. Even the other gods are afraid of him. He hates anyone who cheats him i.e. the Death itself. Recently, he came out of his home to check out the earthlings. It's been fun so far.

He has been keeping watch on things. His aloof brother who keeps disappearing. His crazy sister who is currently cleansing the accumulated karma in heaven. In hell, he sees his brother's pawn diligently cultivating. It looks like she has found a solution to her problem. The esper boy is interesting.

But, there is another character who turned out to be interesting. Reis has planned this. What is it that his brother want? Now, Sung Jun has memories of other life. He didn't follow Fang Aisa as Arius expected him to. He is actually going to meet Dabria.

Arius doesn't like Dabria, though she is his ardent worshiper. He is death. She keeps cheating him. That doesn't mean that he would let a measly human kill his precious, but an annoying follower. He will take care of her by himself.

”This...” Arius looks down at his feet. He has walked into a trap. A trap to catch a god. Sung Jun stops walking and turns around with a straight face.

”You caught me.” The mouse has caught the cat.

”It was easier than I thought it to be.” Sung Jun crosses his arm. ”Why is the god of death following me?”

”I was merely taking a stroll.” Arius tries to break free of the trap, but he can't. Heaven's energy is blocking his path like a barricade of thorns. That's why he strongly dislikes heavenly blessed individual. Heaven is unfair. It gives them too much power. They can even trap a god and make them do whatever they want. Heaven bends its laws for its beloved and blessed individuals.

”I see.” Sung Jun turns around. ”Carry on.”

”Wait!” If this boy leaves like this, he can never get out of this trap. Sung family has been heavenly blessed for centuries. This boy is born with extra blessings and love from heaven. The trap has a pure and angry spiritual energy. If he tries to fight it, it will become stronger. The other gods can't free him either.

”Aren't you going release me before you leave?” Arius asks with a bright smile.

”No.” Sung Jun's answer is straightforward and short. He takes another step.

”I will tell you about Fang Aisa,” Arius yells. ”I will tell you about my siblings' plans.”

Yes, he will rat out his siblings. Anything for freedom. He has no interest in being stuck in this trap until moody heaven decides to free him.

Sung Jun turns around and shows him the same bright smile. ”Now, we are talking.”

Arius is death. God of death. He usually creeps other people out. His siblings are afraid of him. This is the first time that someone's smile is creeping him out. This is how it feels. He won't try to creep others out...much.

Sung Jun looks at him with expectation. His looks are clearly saying, 'Start talking. Why are you staring at me and wasting my time? I have to go and take care of my evil mother in law. I don't have much time to play with a God who has infinite free time on his hand.'
