"Forgive me master, I don't know either. I never heared od them being multiple." I hurried to help Sylviette but when I walked past the last tree I was attacked by another Wendigo. It was hiding on ther tree. It probably tried to tear my head of. The Wendigo had my helm in its hand and looked down on the empty armor. I was able to see body too. I jumped and tried to hit the Wendigo. But because I wasn't able to see the Wendigo I missed. The Wendigo reached its hand pulled the magic core out of my body and ate it.
"I died again? But this isn't the hell?" I was standing in the air. In every direction were beautiful stars. It was the night sky.
"Hey we meet again very fast mister!" I turned around and there was a little girl sitting on a swing. Well it looked like a little girl but its whole body looked like the night sky aswell. I walked over to the girl and sat down on the second swing next to her.
"Are you Ai-E?"
"Yes that's my name!" She sounded very happy but also a bit surprised. "I split your soul again so we can talk. I have a few questions."
"Ah ok, then ask me what you want to kow. I'll answer if I can."
"Good then I'll ask right away. You are not from this world right?" Huh? What? How did she notice? "I saw the illusion." Damn I forgot she can read my mind. " What was this place? It looked strange there were many things I never saw in this world." Seems like I have to answer.
"That was my home town Tokyo."
"Then what were these things on the streets?"
"That was a car-" I answered all her questions about my old world. This girl had so many I thought she would never finish asking. "Hey why are you watching me? When you saw the illusion you must have been watching me the whole time."
"It's my duty. My duty as a god is it to watch over this world. You are the undead king of course I'm watching you. Well you are not the only one that catched my interest."
"Who is the other person?"
"There are many persons" She began to swing. "The different kings and emperors, the people with blessings, the rulers, other strong persons and people like you."
"Peolple like me? What does that mean?"
"People from another world. Right now there are two and one of them is you." Huh? There are more? "Of course! There were even more in the past." It's kinda annoying that she can read my mind. I haven't even asked this question yet. "Oh sorry but I can't do something against it. The voices of the people are in my head if I want or not."
"Wait do you mean you can hear everyones thoughts right now? Isn't that annoying?"
"You get used to it."
"Is that so? Then I have another question."
"Go ahead."
"What are those blessings you talked about?"
"Exactly what it sounds like. A blessing is a power granted by the gods. Your Authority of the Undead King is also a blessing granted by the god of death Dadyloth"
"Wait I thought the demon god is responsible for the dead."
"No brother is the god of sins and punishment." Brother? "Yes, he was a very kind person before he lost his memories. He was a little weird but kind." From what I heared from Malice this guy was a psycho before aswell. "Yeah like I said, he was a little weird."
"Could you please stop answering my thoughts?!"
"Sorry"
"Then why am I going to Zhifar when I die?"
"Because you are a sinner. Your blessing allowes you to come back to life but don't you think this is a bit greedy?" Ah Zhifar said something like this the first time I died. "There are 7 great sins and brother punishes those who commit this sins. But he also rewards the biggest sinner in this world."
"Isn' that weird?"I began to swing aswell.
"He does that to thank them."
"What do you mean?"
"He is thankfull for their sins. Then if they die he doesn't need to hold back and let them suffer as much as he wants." This guy is more than just a psychopath. "Oh we're running out of time. I'll sent you back but before that there us something I wanted to ask. It surprised me when I first saw it."
"What do you mean?"
"You're still in this armor. Normally you should look like your real body. I seems like the form of your soul changed." It changed? Was it because of that fire when I reincarnated? "What fire?"
"You're still aswering my thoughts... There was a fire that burned my body. Since I was already dead it must be my soul that burned."
"hmmm..." She sounded a bit confused. "Ok I'll sent you back now. You should prepare yourself, the other part of your soul was in the hellfire." Ah that was it. The thing I forgot after the fight witch the orc lord.
When I opened my eyes I was underwater. I tried to stand up, when it suddenly started to hurt. And again it was stronger than last time.
Sylviette's P.O.V
"How long does it take for him to come back?" I was fighting the Wendigos together with Rey who woke up after Shio died and a few spirits from the forest. I already tried to take Hellen but since I'm not her master I can't pull her up.
"Your highness watch out!" The water spirit inside the lake warned me so I was able to dodge the attack in the last second.
"Thanks Uppa. You saved me. Rey are you okay?" Rey was fighting one of the Wendigos together with two wind fairies.
Rey: "We can't kill it but we can buy some time!"
Me: "Ok!" I dodged the attacks and flew higher. "Wind Prison!" I catched one of them but it destroyed the spell immediately.
Kailan: "The Ice around their hearts is to hard! We can't break or melt it!" The fire spirit was fighting behind me. He shot fireballs again and again.
Uppa: "Your highness the undead king woke up!"
Me: "Good bring him here. Quik!" Uppa disapperead inside of the lake and at the same time one of the Wendigo jumped and grabbed my leg. It pushed me down and threw me on the ground. It opened its mouth and tried to devour my head when Uppa jumped out of the water with Shio on his back. Shio raised his hand and Hellen flew to him. He catched her and attacked the Wendigo on me.
The Wendigo jumped back and ran in the forest. "Shio are you al-" I tried talking to him but it felt like he didn't hear me. His mana leaked out of his helm. It felt like he was a different person. "What happened?"
He go off Uppa and looked over to the other Wendigo. A few seconds passed and he fell on his knees. "It... hurts."
"Master are you ok?!" Hellen sounded very worried.
Shio: "Yes I'm ok don't worry. It's just... the pain from the hellfire won't disappear."
I tried to defent us from the Wendigo. "Shouldn't the pain disappear when you leave the hellfire? Did something happen?"
Shio: "No I don't think so." He stood up and tried to move.
Me: "You shouldn't move!"
Shio: "I'm not strong but every person is important right now." He took a few steps and began to scream. He was probably screaming to cover up the pain, but suddenly all the Wendigos stopped moving.
