《The Life After Death》


 Chapter 1 Prolouge : The Death

    I sit in front of my computer playing and old web mmorpg called Adventure Quest, my account had been running for 7 years old right after the beta phase down. If you think i''m a pro high leveled player, you are making a huge mistake. Even though my character is very old it''s till in the average level of every players that start one year ago.


    Using my level 42 Ultra Omni Knight class character, i arrive in the scene where i need to use my arrows button to chase a boss mummy from running away using a magic carpet. when i realised that my down button is broken. And here we are, i''m stuck in the middle of the scene waiting for the timer running out and can''t finish the boss. Frustated i decided to check up on Sousetsuka senpai website to look for a new chapter already translated on Death March.


    I found a new chapter uploaded and open it in new tab when a add show up right in the middle of the screen, i always make the add ons of my browser off so this is confusing. And this add have no close button on it, decided to take on the gamble i click the add and found a questioner form with questions that like;

    Doing whatever I want and not your business


    - If you have super power in your next life, what will you do with it?

    With only those 3 questions that wasting my time, I click the confirm button under it. The add closed and i can continue to read the new chapter, right when suddenly an explosion happens right behind me. And the next thing i know i was burried under the rubble of the wall of my room without finishing the chapter, and everything when black.

 Chapter 1-1 : Meeting with Creator

    Black, everything is black. I can''t feel anything nor move anything. No sounds could be heard, only black and nothingness. I don''t know how long i''m in this situation, in this state of blankness I can''t describe the flow of time. Is there even time flowing in this place?


    Oh, a light! I can see a dot of light that was getting bigger and bigger in my view. Is it coming towards me? Or i''m the one that moving towards it? This really feels weird.


    The light when and engulfing me, making me can''t see anything for a while because the brightness that come from the light. When i can finally see, i only see white. Everything is white and nothing, hell what is the difference than with the darkness from before? Everything is none, it''s like the void. Am I in the void? A place where nothing can be seen and exist? Then what am I? This is so weird and make my head hurts. Now that i think about it, did i have a head? Then i look at my own self and nothing. I don''t see any phisycal manifestation of my body. Then how can i see and think?


    After an unknown amount of time thinking and trying to make a piece of everything happening now, i finally hear a sound of laughter. The sound come from everywhere in this place. The sound is a male and a female, old and young. And they laugh synchronizely, making me more confused.


    And then i can see a sihoulette of a person walking to me, I can''t describe this thing as a person. It looks like a sihoulette that was made by the white in this place and the line that shaping it''s body made from the darkness from before. No face can be seen and nothing can be described if it''s a male or a female, but i know one thing. The voice of laughter come from it, it finally stop walking 5 meters in front of me and start talking with it''s weird voice.


    Welcome to the void my Son, this is a place where souls meet Me the Creator of Everything. I make this place as a waiting room for souls to wait to meet Me and deciding on their own to move on to the Upperworld or going to a reincarnation circle.


    So which one you choose my son? Reincarnation or live a new life in the Upperworld or what you call Heaven.


    Thinking about my life that i run in my previous life, I think about the Upperworld or Heaven or whatever is called. It''s an unknown place, and I don''t have any information about it. If i choose reincarnation, i''ll be back to that boring world that nothing big happening around because of me. I''m just a speck of a dirt or dust in that boring place.


    So you choose going to Upperworld right, my son?


    The thing that I ignore just moments ago, talking again and makes me startled out of my thought. Did it just read my mind?


    Yes i can read your mind, that was why i was laughing moments ago. Your mind is weird and complex, I can even feel another mind inside your mind. And yes i know it''s a she, you are so weird for a 21 years old virgin man. What''s with the girl conciousness and your own conciousness in a soul? I believe i never created a Soul like that. And you are the first i ever meet with 2 consiousness in a soul. And also because you answering my form you get a bonus power from me, usually I only release the true potential of the soul when they are moving to the Upperworld. And because of your answer i can give your anothe consiousness a physical body to be used to manifest from your soul. She will be your partner forever because you and her have one soul, the only difference is right now she can manifest at you and her will. Her physical manifestation depends on you and her though, she can be anything you and she wanted to. She is not bound into one form, and because of that I can give you the bonus Synchronize ability to make you can use her in anyform without any need to learn how to use her form.


    The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.


    Like when she become a sword, you don''t need to learn how to use a sword. Synchronize will make you become the one with the sword, you can use the sword like it''s part of your body. Synchronize is a passive ability, but you will need a huge concentration to change her form as you and her need it. If one of you is unconsious, the form will be decided by one of you. You both need to work together to form the physical manifestation or the result will be nothing. Oh and when you unconsious, she can use your body to use her physical manifestation. Just like when you let her take over your body when you to tired or to lazy to control your own body in your past life.


    I''m speechless, this thing know everything about me and Alustriel. And this thing is a stalker to boot! Now with it knows everything, there is nothing i can do except accepting its offer. I can feel Alustriel starting to wake up, and I don''t want to start explaining it to her when I still in this situation.


    Ok, you peeping Tom. I accept your offer to send me to Upperworld, but please give me the basic knowledge about the Upperworld and its Languages. I don''t want to come into another world and have to start to learn another language from the basic.


    I''ll give you the knowledge, right about now. And be a good boy in this new world ok? Cya.


    With that everything when bright and I can''t see anything again, knowledge about the Upperworld starting to flowing into my mind at a very fast speed. My mind starting to hurt when it suddenly stopped and i can understand and remember everything about the basic knowledge that was given by Creator. It''s basically a place where everything that have a soul can live a new life under the rules of the Creator. The rules is easy, everything decided by a game. A game can start from the easiest one like cards and puzzle, but some games can also deadly. The more dangerous the game the bigger the prize, the prize decided by the person or groups that was hosting the game. Everything can be placed as the prize in the game, from money, items, ability, to a person. This world will be a fun hell of a world, and me and Alustriel will be a part of it now.


    Oh, the light start to receding. And now i can see i''m free falling to the ground bellow from an unknown height, I can see the sea, islands or continents, city or town, forest, and waterfalls. Right now i''m free falling at a highspeed right to a circle in the forest that was surrounded by waterfalls, there is only a dirt path from the circle that goes to the forest and i can see a city not so far from the forest. First place after landing from this free falling is go to the city and complaint about the way to coming to the world to the Creator.


    <hr />


    Thanks, for anyone who read my fictions. I just write it for the heck of fun of it. And also to decrease my boring state of mind. Also for the game in the Prolouge, i really play the game for 7 years and still in the average level. LOL!

 Chapter 1-2 : Crash Landing, Alustriel, and Divine Snake

    With the speed and the position of my body, i''m sure it will be a very painfull landing. If can survive the landing that is. I tried to position my falling position into a stand up position with my feet close and i point it to the ground, the falling speed reach another increase. I try my best to make my falling into the water, hoping the water around is a deep one. I spin my body to landing in the deeper coloured part of the water, from my knowledge the deeper the colour the deeper the water.


    Few kilometers above the water, i can feel Alustriel awaken from her sleep. I try to contact her inside my mind and give her the memories of my conversations with the creator and how we died. In a few seconds she got all the the information and we tried to synchronize our mind to create a physical manifestation to create something that can save us from this certain death free fall.


    We need something that hard and can protect us from the momentum of the fall! How about bubbles? Thousands of bubbles into a suit and make it a round one. (Alustriel)


    The one from the TV advertisement not too long ago? You want to make me looks like a maschot from a tyre advertisment and modified the suit in to a ball? (Me)


    Yes! (Alustriel)


    Well considering the chance of the survival, that was the best choice. But we need to imagine the materials of the bubble so it can handle the crash without blown up. And also because we are already death once, call me Ghost now. (Ghost)


    Ghost, huh? Neat name. (Alustriel)


    With that out of the way, we start imagining the balloon suit manifestation, it start to manifest and englufing my body fully with it''s rubberlike substance that i was sure is more durable than any rubber out there. The descending speed started to decreased because of the air friction with the balloon suit. I can''t see anything from inside the ballon suit but i still can feel the descreasing of speed and the movement of the balloon suit when rotating around. It starting to make me sick, but this is our best chance of survival. Suddenly i can feel the balloon suit crash into something soild, the impact can be felt from nside but not to the point of unbearable. Because how tight the balloon suit engulfing my body, I didn''t get any deep wound or bruise. After crashing and rolling a few times the balloon suit finally stop moving, deciding this is the best time to remove it. We unmanifest it, and water start to coming in a fast way. I try to swim up and finally getting out of the water surface, taking a deep breath I look around and notice we fall right in the middle of the waterfalls pool point. It''s close to the circle with the dirt path that going through the forest that lead to the town or city or whatever is that place.

    Swimming to the nearest shore, i get out of the water. My clothes all wet, and it seems i''m back wearing the same shirt and pants when i''m died. Deciding to take a rest, i let Alustriel manifest in her phisycal human body form. She is the perfect definition of a perfect woman, she have same height as me. Her body looks like sculpted to perfection, her skin is pale white, have silver long hair that flows to her waist, her golden eyes that looks like it can shine in the dark, her breast that not too big nor too small for her height. Everything is perfect, like a goddess descend from the heaven. She is Alustriel my other conciusness, the one that share the same soul as me and body until our death. Now she can manifest herself in the world, I don''t know what people reaction when see me walking with her together. After all I look like an average guy with long brown hair till my shoulder that was tied into ponytail, thin eyebrows, thin lips, a bit feminine face, brown eyes, and 5ft height. And also i''m an Asian breed, so my skin colour a bit yellowish white.


    Drying myself, i decided to look arund the place with Alustriel close behind me also looking around. Oh, Alustriel is not naked mind you. She is wearing white summer one piece dress. Looking around the place i notice there is a shrine gate in front of a cave right at the point between two waterfalls, if you don''t look it precisely you will miss it because the amount of water flowing close to the gate hindering the sight of the gate. Telling Alustriel with mind probe, we decided to check up on the shrine gate. Walking close to the gate, we got wet by the amount of water that falls from the top. Deciding not to look on Alustriel wet form, i keep look ahead to see where the gate leads to. Standing in front of the gate, i can see it''s a cave. The cave is big and not formed naturally, why said that? Because the surface of the cave is too smooth, the walls of the cave make a perfect circle. Something huge must be dig the walls, not knowing it''s safe or not I decided to throw a stone inside.


    I can hear the stone hitting the floor of the cave a few times, and suddenly it''s quiet. With the way i throw the stone, it should not be stopped with the range of the last echo. Something must be making the stone momentum broken, thinking about that I''m too late to notice a pair of golden slitted eyes staring right on us from inside the cave.


    Who dares to throw a stone at my house! You humans dare to challenge me a Divine Snake of Water to a game?!
