Chapter 1 - "World is not fair kiddo"

Darkness, it's not like it is too dark to see. No. I don't think I have eyes anymore. I no longer feel my burning soul. Hah, who would have thought, that I would be stuck in hell for hundreds of years. Weird tho, why my soul is not regenerating? Did I finally reach my limit? The irony, I have finally gotten used to this world, and now my soul will be erased. Elijah felt depressed. Even tho for the first hundred years, he prayed for his suffering to end… But now, I was able to travel to hell due to my soul becoming immune to hell's flames. The hell I was sent to, was one of the worst kinds. Due to my untimely death, my beloved sister killed herself. And was about to be sent to hell for committing a deadly sin. I made a deal with the demon king of the west. Royan allowed my sister to be released from hell and enter the reincarnation realm, with a condition. That I will enter one of the worst prisons of hell "The Cage". Even tho it's called a prison. It is basically an alternative world of hell. Everyone that was sent here either disappear forever or went insane due to immense pain.

Elijah finally felt that the end is near. In his last moments, he remembers the tears of his bellowed sister, her sorrow while she held his dead body. And her death, when she took the same dagger that ended my life and forced it into her own throat. Some of those people were laughing, and some were disappointed, that they won't be able to have fun with her anymore. It was at this moment, that I saw Royan. He was enjoying the view like it was a show. And then he grabbed Elijah's sister. Because our souls were in different realms, I and my sister couldn't communicate. However, Royan took this as entertainment and gave me the ability to see her. He wanted to see, would he sacrifice everything for her and vice versa. Or will Elijah let her go to hell? Literally. He started talking to Elijah.

"This is where it ends kiddo. You reincarnate, your kid sister goes to hell, and those people go back to their lives, to their wives and kids" Royan mocked our situation.

Everything started after young lord saw my kid sister, and tried to force himself on her. Enraged, I killed him. And his father decided to punish us. How dare lowly peasants fight back. In his eyes, we were just a bug, and if bug bites, he has to be squashed. His soldiers held me in front of our hut, while his brother gutted me. I only felt fear and endless hatred for those people. In fact, it wasn't my sister's sin, that attracted him. No. It was my regret. My negative feelings allured and intrigued him.

I was speechless about the injustice that he reminded me of. We did nothing wrong, but it's me and my sister being punished, while the real monsters live on.

"I can't believe you kiddo, you're not even speaking? Are you so shocked? Are you so angry? C'mon, say something boy" Royan was trying to understand me. However, even I didn't understand what I felt at the time.

"It's not fair… The world is not fair." I would have cried if I could. However. My body was already expired. Royan just grinned. My words amused him. But I wasn't focusing on him. I focused on the one who was speaking to my sister. It took some time, but I realized. When Royan came, he split himself in two. One spoke to me, one spoke to her. I couldn't hear them thou. But I saw my sister, was happy. She smiled while answering something.

"You're a god? Do you have a name?" I asked him.

"My name?" then he chuckled, after realizing I asked if he was a god.

"Hah, my name is Royan. I am one of the demon kings." Royan kept grinning while talking.

Demon? What is a demon? And he said he is a king, so he is a royalty? He also spoke about hell and reincarnation before. Elijah's attitude changed due to his brain trying to process what is going on.

"What is a demon?" Elijah asked.

"HoHo? You don't even know that? Do commoners in this world don't even know the meaning of the word demon?" Royan was intrigued, but it was at this moment that his counterpart finished talking to the girl. Royan's smile was finally gone. Together with Royan's counterpart, Charlotte started to disappear with a smile on her face.

"I see you don't understand the situation. First, as I said, Charlotte is going to hell. And it is a place, where I and other demons exist. It's the place where sinners, are punished and tortured for eternity. Sinners, like your sister!" Royan started grinning once again.

"However, there is a way for you to save your sister." Royan's eyes were focused on Elijah. Royan was like a hungry beast, staring at its prey

"You will take her place. However, instead of regular hell, she would have gone. You will be sent somewhere else. Somewhere that is far worse than regular hell." Royan added. "while your sister, will reincarnate in your place.

Elijah finally understood. The person in front of him is a MONSTER. And he can't leave his sister in his hands.

"I agree," Elijah nodded, "But can you help me with one thing?"
