After some time, Pluto appeared before them."Never thought, you guys will kill the beast so easily"
Hearing the word "easy"
Both Kai and Jai cursed him in their mind. They would not have minded it, if they were in the outside world but during the conditions when both of them are physically and mentally mostly exhausted and still have to fight an insane beast. They can"t help but complain.
"...I would have never allowed that mindless beast to catch me off guard, if I was not mentally almost exhausted...., nor Jai would be so tired after some punches"thought Kai bitterly.
But there was no one to listen to their complaints here nor did they have the strength to argue with Pluto.
They just want to leave this place as fast as possible.
"As you guys have completed your task and as per the agreement. It"s now my time to keep my promise to allow you guys to cross the barrier. But before that..."
Pluto looked at the body of the Vampiwolf and casted some magic of dark attribute.
A dark magic circle appeared beneath the dead body of the Vampiwolf and before Kai and Jai eyes a similar looking shadow like a ghostly figure raised from the dead body.
Pluto quickly moved towards the shadow holding his scythe, as the shadow trembled and with a slash cut the shadow disappeared leaving behind just a blue transparent flame floating in the air.
Seeing this Pluto quickly creates a lamp cage made up of dark elemental essence. Trapping the flame inside the lamp cage.
Walking towards Kai and Jai, holding onto the lamp in one hand and holding the scythe with another.
"Let"s go,"said Pluto and was about to take Kai and Jai towards the mountain and help them cross the barrier.
But Pluto suddenly noticed that he cannot use his power of the soul reaper anymore and panicked"Just... what is happening? Why can"t I use the power of law?"
"It"s because I am not allowing you to use them, dear Pluto"resonated a voice through heaven and Earth.
Causing Pluto to tremble in fear. Even Kai and Jai were able to hear that deep ancient voice.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty please forgive me, forgive this fool"
Started begging Pluto with his knees folded, the dignity and strength. Which, Kai and Jai saw before cannot be seen.
But they still can"t sense where the voice is coming from, another question is just how powerful is the being to make Pluto feel so scared.
"Oh! Pluto, Pluto, were you really thinking that you could hide anything from me? The supreme ruler of Samsara world, the very manifestation of death and darkness"
"Forgive me, your majesty. It will not occur again"as he smashed his head violently on the ground.
But the voice again didn"t respond.
Kai and Jai were feeling, sorry for Pluto and more worried about. What is about to happen next? After all, Pluto was going to help them get out of the Samsara world, but now that the ruler of Samsara world is intervening in their plan. They can only wait and see what is going to occur next helplessly.
As a being who can only be said to be a dark ghost like illusion, darker than night sky. As if no light can exist or no sense can touch it. Everything which tries to reach out to his existence will die out before reaching him and get sucked into the eternal darkness, as he appeared before them.
He was shaped like a figure of a man but was not a man. A formless body but still with a form.
The Ruler of Samsara world, the death itself was standing before the eyes of Kai and Jai. But they cannot even feel his presence and looked more like an illusion to them.
"My lord please forgive me"
Hearing that Death looked at Pluto with his hollow white eyes. Devoid of any emotions and life.
"You have committed a mistake by involving living beings in the affairs of the world of the dead. You have violated the rules of death, my rules. For which you will face punishment bit don"t worry I am not taking away your duty of a soul reaper. This creature is really powerful and the ordinary distorted souls cannot take care of him. So I don"t blame you, but a rule is a rule and everyone must follow. I will decide your punishment later, I am more interested in talking with friends from the world of living. May be they can help me with taking care of invaders"
Hearing that Pluto felt relieved but didn"t dare to stand up without Death permission.
After talking with Pluto, Death looked at Jai and Kai.
When Death looked at Kai. He got that feeling that he had felt it before and suddenly the origin bloodline inside Kai started to act.
As the darkness origin started, reaction as if it had a mind of its own and a suction force was generated inside Kai.
Even Death"s eyes widened on feeling the suction force and heard the voice resonating in his head.
"I am death, the end of all ends and the Illusionary beginning. I am the first darkness, when nothing existed I was there. I came before everything and thing and I will be end before nothing"
"Obey, Obey, Obey. Return the origin to origin. The death to death, darkness to darkness"
As the voice keeps getting louder and louder in his head. He lost his senses and started reciting the lines in his head. Getting sucked into the body of Kai and finally inside Kai"s body.
As the sucking disappears and the origin bloodline calms down. Leaving everyone astonished.
Pluto was left completely shaken because he can feel a special connection to Kai. A connection which every soul Reapers will feel with the ruler of Samsara world. Their existence and power are all connected to him. He is the source of power of all beings of Samsara world.
"This..."thought Kai
He was an uncontrollable joy and happiness. But don"t know why, like something a missing part of himself has become united with him again. He can feel that the laws of the Samsara world are no longer binding him. But at the same time they are becoming stronger and stronger. They are transforming and Kai can feel it.
On the other hand Pluto and Jai were feeling the change in the appearance and senses.
As he was getting covered in the darkness and didn"t look much different from the ruler of Samsara world.
As if he is the ruler of Samsara world. Jai cannot feel the existence of Kai anymore. Even the special link between them has been cut off. He was terrified, but didn"t know what was going on.
How did Kai turn into the ruler of Samsara world?
Pluto on the other hand was on his knees, he can feel that the true ruler of Samsara world is standing before him, and he is much more terrifying and his master power is increasing at an alarming rate; with the increase of the strength of laws of Samsara world. His strength is also increasing side by side.
After sometime Kai returned back to normal and the darkness surrounding him gathered together.
As the ruler of Samsara world and Kai were separated again, but a link was formed between them.
The expressionless and formless, Ruler of Samsara world. Now has a form and shape.
He looked like a shadow of Kai or the Dark version of Kai.
Seeing the ruler of Samsara world again he smiled and death smiled in return. Like a mirror image.
The ruler of Samsara world and he have been separated physically, but not existentially.
They are now the same being with different consciousness.
Until now, he was just the manifestation of the law of death and darkness without any soul. But now he has become a part of Kai and Kai is part of him.
While Kai learns another secret about the origin bloodline and his myriad magic origin veins.
The magic power he generally used and multiplied by the magic origin comes from the elemental realms and Samsara world is elemental world of darkness and death.
After becoming one with death, the laws of death and darkness in the universe have been strengthened by the power of origin.
At the same time now, he can summon the ruler of Samsara world into the world of living. But in exchange, he will lose access to the dark elemental origin and will not be able to use the dark magic.
The summon ruler will also have the same cultivation as him with the same amount of magic power of a normal person but will be able to use the power of darkness to its fullest.
Thinking about it, it has its own advantages and disadvantages. Thought Kai and he told Death to tell Pluto to take them towards the mountain and help them cross the barrier.
After becoming one with death and separating from him, a large amount of his mental strength is again consumed and he wanted to get out of here.
Death, may be here ruler. But he is a living being and not part of this world.
He needs to return to his world.
Getting his master message Pluto didn"t delay and took Kai and Jai across the mountain to cross the barrier between Samsara world and materialistic world.
On his way, Kai heard a voice in his head.
"I am sending you a gift, I hope you will like it"
The message was from Death.
Hearing that Kai looked below, but n.o.body was there anymore.
While as promised, Pluto dropped them before a barrier.
It was a barrier made up of dense fog and no light would pa.s.s though it could not see anything inside.
"I am going to open a hole in the barrier, which will only last for half a minute. you guys have to run fast as possible without looking back and crossing the barrier, else you guys will fall into the rift between dimensions"said Pluto with complex emotion as he looked at Kai and Jai. Especially Kai, if he told his colleagues what he had witnessed today. n.o.body will believe him but he can still feel a connection between Kai and him.
Hearing that Kai and Jai nodded.
While Pluto opens up a hole and Kai with Jai tuned into it without looking back as the hole disappears.
Pluto looked at the disappearance hole and turned around to leave. But saw Death standing before him with a smile on his face.
"Time for punishment"declared Death, while Pluto trembled and got dragged by Death to the inner depths of Sansara world.
As painful cries of Pluto resonated throughout the land, as he got dragged.
Like a pig getting ready to be slaughtered
