It kept blaring that he had reached critical levels before the contract forcibly stopped him from killing himself, but in this state he wouldn't be able to do anything for me and would be no better than dead weight as he knelt their with his head hanged low as the will to live was nearly snuffed out of him.
'He's nearly Catatonic, he isn't responding to any external stimulus either.' I think to myself as I crouch down to his kneeling form as I shake him with no response at all.
'Let's see, oh wait I have a spell for this.' I think to myself as I place my hand on top of his head before using my Solomon's Knowledge to its fullest.
My blood red eyes changed before taking a rainbow colored hue as they shown brightly, "Oculi animae" I muttered the spell before I appeared in a different place.
I appeared in a black void as I saw Akaza in his original Human form, kneeling with his head bent low as the ground was splattered in blood, his body was drenched in said blood as bodies lay strewn about, the bodies of every person he has ever killed.
Before him was a grave, a family grave that only the rich of this era could afford to have compared to modern times in Japan, and on that grave their were three pictures Two men and one Woman, His Father, His Father-In-Law/Teacher Keizo and his Fiancée Koyuki.
"I'm sorry! Im so sorry! I became the thing that you all hated! The thing you all never desired for me to become! I'm a monster! I've killed so many people all in the worthless pursuit of power! Power that was meant to protect you! But…. But…." He lashed out before he began sobbing as tears streamed down his face.
"But you couldn't protect them in the end, your father hung himself so you wouldn't need to be a criminal anymore to take care of him and they died due to the jealousy of a rival Dojo because they feared your very powers, in a rage you went out of your way and slaughtered the entire Dojo with your bare hands, and Muzan would later find you, make you a demon and seal away all your memories, isn't that right?" I say to him as my feet gently splashed in the blood soaked grounds to where he turned up to look at me while I looked down on him.
"You believe that no matter what you do your sins will way you down for the rest of your days and the only way to atone for it is death before letting your very soul be dragged down into hell?" I said as he looked back down towards the ground and slightly nodded to what I just said.
"Question is, do you think they desire for you to die, for you to suffer in hell to atone for your sins for all eternity, or would they desire more than anything for you to go out of your way to redeem yourself, become a better man, and use your strength for the good of all of humanity." He hears that but doesn't respond for a few moments before speaking.
"You? For the good of Humanity? I thought Devils hated Humans." But I shake my head when he says that.
"I lied, I'm not a Devil, though I'm not Human either, I am what a person does when you sacrifice your potential as a human for strength and unimaginable power, the only thing I have that will continue to grow is my strength and power from both time and effort, but fortunately unlike others who have followed my path I haven't devolved into some monstrous beast with no will of my own, I guess to say that you and me are very much alike in that regard." I say to him leaving him a bit surprised but it gave him a chance to reflect on everything he has done.
"…. I have killed so many people, all for the sake of power and selfish ambition to become the strongest of all demons under Muzan…." He said with a clear sense of shame and self hatred for it all.
"I have killed many as well, some who deserved it, some who didn't, in my old life I was one would call a professional assassin, I took any and all jobs my employer wanted me to, never caring who I killed, men, women, young and old, one person or an entire clan it didn't matter as I was payed to do what I was told and it was all I ever knew…." I say with me reflecting a bit back on my past life.
"Even went so far as to sacrifice my humanity to become the being I am now, all just so I could destroy the ones holding my strings and go and do what I please with life, and also to help people to make up for my actions." I knelt down and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"You killing yourself to atone for your sins would be nothing more than taking the easy way out, do you honestly think they would want you to die? Or would they want you to live and go out of your way to atone for your sins and go out of your way to do good things, save people even if it means having to kill others that would kill for evil?" I ask him as I saw in him his dying flame of life that was barely keeping him alive begin to slowly grow brighter.
"Do you truly wish to snuff out your own life when you could go out of your way to make up for your sins and the day you finally decide to die and you have no regrets you can finally go to heaven and be the ones you love once and for all?" I say which shakes him as I could see his will to live slowly returning to him.
"But how?…. I've done so many horrible and unforgivable sins that have stained my very soul red in the blood of those I have slain…." He said while he looked down at his hands that were really stained in the blood of all those he had killed.
I stood up while looking off in the distance as I rubbed my chin, luckily Shinigami made a second automated version of the system that I could ask questions to as she is bound to my Spiral/True half of myself.
'System, is it possible to give a system to those under contract with me' I asked internally as it instantly gave me a response.
[Yes, Those under Contract are allowed access to systems beyond the Group Chat System that aren't considered loved ones of yours such as Mikan, Saki and the others, Contractee's are unable to betray the user and thus they are allowed to have a system given to them]
'Good, Give me a System that is able to help Redeem one of their sins and earn a way to a better afterlife after death.' I say to it as I see a near infinite list of systems pass my eyes before he begins to shrink leaving only one system before my eyes.
[For Contractee, Upper Moon Three Akaza, the recommended system is the Karmic System, it will allow him to be able to quantify his sins and how much he needs to do to make his negative count finally become positive] the system told me before I turned back and looked at him.
"If the day you truly want to die then I will allow you to peacefully pass on, but unless you work to wash the sins away then you will never be able to see your loved ones in the after life." He looks up at me before an orb of light appears within my hands as it floats from me to him as it passes through his chest and into his body.
He clutched his head as information entered his mind of what was given to him, "This is a way to quantify all of the sins you have committed and how to go out of your way to atone for them, by doing good deeds and helping in the eradication of evil beings, whether they be human, demon or things much worse than anything you can truly imagine, so if you wish to atone then follow me and I shall guide you." I said with my hand outstretched towards him as he looked up at me with wide eyes.
To him he saw my own karmic value that it was so positive at this point by changing the fates of so many different people and saving those who would one day die form their fates deaths that I glowed in a pure golden light, a Karmic value signifying to Akaza that I was no Devil but in actuality was instead a saint to him.
Seeing this the spark that had nearly been snuffed out had finally reignited the embers of his very soul as a flame burst forth from him, he found a new purpose in this long life of his.
He pulled himself up and stood before me with a resolute look in his eyes before kneeling down on one knee as he placed his right hand over his heart.
"From this day forth, I Akaza, Former Upper Moon Three, hereby swear my allegiance to you and to bring about a better world for myself and all of those around me to make up for all that I have done!" He says as the flame of his soul begins to burn brightly while this realm within his mind begins to crack and dissipate leaving me only to smile when we return to the real world as he moves his head to look up at me.
"Good, then I know the perfect way to help you on your road to redemption." I smirk with my hand out stretched as Yamato returns to my hand before leaning it against my shoulder.
"What is your command Master?" He asks with a serious look in his eyes.
"Help me Kill your former Brethren in the Upper Moons, and Lead me straight to Doma as I wish to take his head as a personal trophy." I say with a evil smile spreading across my lips.
Time we hunted some worthless garbage down and put him down for good.
