A white robed man was standing in front of Ryan while staring at the formation that was on the verge of closing. Squinting, Ryan saw the darkness that was fading into a whirlpool in the formation.
"That is where I came from? I have ascended to heaven then, right?." he asked himself with glee all over his face as his pounding heart calmed down, all those preaches of the bishop that he attended on every Sunday was not for naught.
The man's robe ruffled in the cold breeze. And with his arms folded on his back, it made him look charismatic in front of Ryan. The white robed man was staring at Ryan with curiosity as if looking at his fellow human for the first time. It was like he was refusing to accept that Ryan was truly there and that it was simply him hallucinating.
"It has been a very long time, thousands of years have gone by, already..." the white robed man murmured to himself while looking at the sky, reminiscing about the past.
To Ryan, the features of the white robed man was so strange, and he had never seen such a beautiful man anywhere in his previous life. Saying he was handsome was an understatement, he looked extremely beautiful instead in that he could change any straight man to a gay.
He had a white smooth skin and a coiled rebath golden earrings on his ear like a woman's. If not for his facial hair, he would have judged the man as a woman without further observation. His body was frail and an aura of holiness shrouded him like an angel from heaven.
Ryan stood up and walked towards him while inspecting the area that he had landed on.
Although the man looked weak in appearance, his intuition was warning him that this person was not to be triffle with, even when the man had hidden his aura so flawlessly, his lone existance alone was making him want to bow to him with respect and worship.
"Where am I , Is this really heaven? " Ryan asked the white robed man nonchalantly. if this was heaven, where was the so called, golden gate... and most importantly the beautiful and Holly angels. 'Fuck! why are my thoughts running that way... I am a spirit now so I can not do that thing, right? The bishop also said that in heaven, there is no such a thing, only worshipping and praising the Lord...'
"It has been a very long time since someone of your Calibre used this formation, to think that you will transmogrify to an elf this time, hehe! Interesting. " The white robed man speaked in a distant voice as he caressed his chin amusingly.
"An elf, what is that?" Ryan King asked with a look of confusion while scratching the back of his head so as he could think properly. ' If I remember clearly, Elves are only found in movies, books and series, when did they became a reality?? ' It was like the man was speaking to him in proverbs he really didn't understood him.
The white robed man flicked his fingers and a nun appeared in front of Ryan out of nowhere with a white overcoat in her hand.
"Stretch your arms. She will help you wear the coat. " The white robed man said to Ryan calmly. Ryan then stretched his arms in embarrassment as the nun covered his nude body, a dignified expression was plastered on her face.
Anyhow, the white robed man banged his hands together and compressed the thick surrounding spiritual energy to a 6feet tall glass mirror with the reflective surface facing Ryan.
"This...is...is me? You have to be pulling my legs, right? " Ryan King asked him with a puzzled look, his mouth agape. What usually happens in those movies was becoming a reality, and not just that but Ryan himself was the center of this reality.
What is happening, stay calm I have to stay calm.'
His image on the mirror was that of a teenage elf about the age of 18 with sharp pointed ears and long white hair that reached up to his waist. His eyes on the other hand, sparkled blue like the deep ocean. He also had a well built body with a six packed abdomen.
His smooth skin, long nose and red lips with his perfect body made him look like he had been born this instant, compared to those male models from Earth, he was like a deity in their midst . He only realized that the only thing that he had transcended with was his height.
"This is a completely different person, when did I change so much? " He asked in a distant voice while waving his hands and making some weird movements in front of the mirror to confirm that the image on the mirror was truly him.
"You were corrupted by the ocean of souls which turned you entirely into a different being. Be thankful for not turning into a 4-legged creature or any of those disgusting things..." The man sneered mockingly. ' With a humanoid body, what is there to complain. '
"You should also know that not everybody transcends, only the few with a strong will of soul gets that chance, but the others..."
"You can feel it, when in that ocean, everything that is happening to the souls that have failed to cross over, its torture... " the white robed man continued to enlighten Ryan with a nonchalant attitude.
"Aaaargh ! "
A throbbing headache left Ryan sweating buckets, veins popped out of his head making him to fall on his knees.
" Fuck! What are you up to! "
His eyelids felt heavy as he struggled to force himself awake.
" Ding. "
" Unidentified being has invaded your soul space"
" Unidentified being corrupting your soul..."
"Alien's soul coming into form..."
" .....10 percent..."
" ...50percent..."
" ....80 percent..."
" Formation complete...
That was the final voice that Ryan heard from the system before he gave in and fainted.
He found himself in his soul space, large as far as the eye could see, it was filled with tall brown grasses and several sparsely acacia and baobab trees making it look like a world of its own entirely.
Suddenly, a man wearing a green robe appeared out of nowhere and plodded towards him with a disdainful smirk on his face.
Strangely, the green robed man was totally identical to the old version of the now the elven Ryan, the only difference from Ryan was that the man was cold and had an air of superiority around him that made the man look down upon every existance including Ryan.
" You fell right into my trap boy, this body will be mine from now onwards. I had been imprisoned in that ocean of souls for millions of years, but thanks to you, I have finally escaped from the shackles of hell. "
" I Ra Hul finally returns. "
" Mu! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!Ha!Ha! "
