Life is always unpredictable. And my life is the most unexpected life I ever lived. For 15 years I study hard to get a job and live a peaceful and fulfilling life.
All my life I only think about how to repay the gratitude of my parents who raised me by sacrificing their own happiness. But just before I get a good job and take final steps for fulfilling my dreams, misfortune fell.
I was diagnosed as late stage cancer patient. The first time I heard this I was so shocked that I couldn't believe it that I have cancer. All this damn time I had cancer but why did not I feel sick or something to recognize the symptoms? I was so angry at that time that I almost cursed in the loud voice. But it will only make matter worse. I was so heartbroken at that time that I can't even explain how I feel?
"How am I supposed to tell my parents that their only son has cancer and in late stage where death is certain?" At that time this is the only thing I am thinking. I was so engrossed in the sadness and grief that I don't even know when did I get in the of the road, I didn't even hear the warning from the other people.
Suddenly I heard a loud horn, maybe from a truck. Before I turn to see the vehicle, the supposed vehicle hit me so hard that I felt all the bones In my body broke into pieces and the only thing I see is spinning world. After that I lose consciousness. And the only thing I think at that time is " Aah, another unexpected thing."

In a strange void, where only darkness exists suddenly a flicker of light appeared out of nowhere.
This strange scene caught someone's attention.
"Hmm...what a strange thing. Seems like an unfortunate soul." The strange being thought upon closer inspection of the flicker of light.
"How strange, why this soul doesn't get corrupted by the darkness? even I have to be careful when dealing with darkness."
Suddenly thinking about something he said "Maybe this is your destiny, little one. But first let's get to know each other." After saying he fetched his hand to get the soul.

After losing consciousness, I don't know how much time had passed. At first there is feeling of heaviness, like something pulling my soul, it's like I am drowning. After feeling of drowning ended, a terrifying cold swept over my soul, like I was standing in the middle of Antarctica with naked body. But this feeling of cold also ended and after that I gradually begin to lose all of my feelings, emotions and intelligence and at one point I can't feel anything, can't understand anything and don't know what is happening to me.
After deprived of my senses and intellect an unknown amount of time passed again, suddenly at one point of time I began to feel something again, something warm and gentle, just like the embrace of mother, and at that time I suddenly remember everything about my situation.

After fusing of soul power the strange being said "This is enough for him to get to know each other. "
At that time the soul in his hand is not just flicker of light but a full body illuminating a sparkling blue light. A body of a adult in his early 20s. After sometime the boy began to wake from his slumber.
"Oh, little one you finally awoke." The strange being said.
"Hmm...who are you? And where is this?" The boy asked.
"I don't know what my name is, but where I belong to the people of that world worship me as Soul King. As for where are we, I am also clueless about this." Soul King said.
After hearing the name of the entity in front of me I am shocked because I know that person or to be exact Soul King is a character of One of the popular anime 'Bleach' in my previous life.
"This talk aside, I don't have much time left in this place so I awake you with my power. You probably wondering that why I didn't leave this place if I have power?"
That is correct. At that time I was really wondering about why the Soul King didn't leave this place, because here he doesn't have any restrictions so why?
"Answer is in the question itself. Because I am powerful, my soul had already crossed the limits of a mortal and became transcendent that's why I can't cross the world itself and because I am in this place for countless years, darkness invaded my soul and began to corrode it. That's when you came here, that time you are just size of a thumb but so darkness can't corrode your soul. So I decided to give you a chance to live for second time." After saying all this to the boy he placed his hand on his head.
"Why are you doing this for an unknown person?" I asked him.
"Hmm....I don't know, maybe because my life is going to end so I decided to help a pitiful soul." Soul King replied.
After hearing the reply for sometime I don't know what to say, because even in my previous life expect my family nobody help me.
"Thank you. My name is Jay and I am truly grateful for what are you doing. If I have chance I will definitely make a statue of you in the world I am going" I said to Soul King. And I am serious about this because even if Soul King is the ruler of the three relam in the world of bleach, expect for higher ups and noble nobody knows who is Soul King.
After hearing my reply he smiled slightly and said "Even if you do nothing to repay me I don't mind, just don't regret anything. Also simply reincarnating you doesn't solve the problems you are going to face in future so I am going to give you my lifelong experience and technique of the world I am in."
After saying this he suddenly transferred some unknown and familiar knowledge in my mind. As i imagined to feel miserable pain that comes with knowledge transferring, but I don't experience any but feeling of sleepiness began.
"It seems like my time has come, listen child live well and don't pursue for power blindly, because in the end it will destroy all your loved ones." After saying this he closed his eye and submerge in the darkness.
I also began to feel sleepy so I closed my eyes and fell asleep
