Chapter 29: Guardian.
Feng glanced down and noticed his companion waiting for arrival. The other followed suit and also witness Dracula, a man that looked more powerful than Feng to them.
With a Swoosh~ and heavy winds, the Arc descended from the skies and landed on the train, four stepped up and moved towards Dracula, one step at a time, and Feng stored the Arc in his deep pockets!
The five beings gathered on top of the train which is moving fastly towards the City of Silver.
Dracula looked at them and they started back at him, thinking who this person is.
Feng walked past the three soul workers and the excited goblin kid. He pointed his hands at Dracula and casually announced to them, "He is the guardian of this world, the Sea of Wisdom, Dracula. In this world, he is my one and only friend!"
The goblin kid's ability worked its wonder, and it found out that what Feng said is the truth.
While the three soul had different reactions but the end thoughts was the same as the goblin kid.
"Tael, Kang Su, I can't feel any Aura from this person," BAM said, wondering how could that be possible.
"Bam, me neither. For a while, I couldn't even sense him. It's almost as if he doesn't exist. Maybe the guardian of this mortal world is an ancient expert and we are too weak to sense his aura?" Tael said, unable to comprehend how his eyes couldn't see a living existence for a while.
"It isn't just you two, even I can't sense his aura, but I can feel the presence of divine energy in this person. He is at the level of divine or extremely near it!" Kang Su said, as far as he could remember, all soul workers are born with eyes that can see the world in two dissimilar visions. The first vision is through normal eyesight also called vision of mortal: the second was spiritual vision.
The soul workers used spiritual vision as it showed the world truth. In ancient times, the king of mages said, "When a person uses his eyes to see the world, he will see what the world wants him to see. Use your spiritual senses and the truth hidden beneath the veil of night and light will be exposed!"
That's why all the underworld officials, including the low levels one uses their spiritual eyes, even though it cost them underworld energy to use.
Tael and Bam stood still because of the shock they revived. Even the most powerful of them all couldn't sense the aura of Earth's guardian!
Bam whispered, "The tainted mortal has said that the guardian is his only friend. From the looks of all the evidence gathered, the guardian is as powerful as the tainted."
Tael glanced at Dracula, who had picked up the goblin child and whispered even lowly, "At first I didn't believe it, but now I do. They really can end the Apocalypse in two weeks!"
While looking at the kid loving guardian, Kang Su thoughtfully nods his head and replies, "Yeah, let's be amiable and treat him with respect. That way he will do us no harm. Anyways, seven days later, we will be able to escape this hellhole and return to paradise."
They didn't know that Dracula was just as powerful as them. They couldn't sense his aura because of a simple technical reason. The fact was that Dracula was a robot and lacked life energy and he had energy tubes that were filled with divine energy. That's how such a great misunderstanding had occurred.
On the other hand, Feng had mentally communicated some commands to Dracula, due to which he had started to take care of the pamper wearing goblin kid.
One of Dracula's hand held the briefcase while the other held the goblin kid.
Just like a scumbag, Feng Mei happily donated the child and the other three soul workers into Dracula's hand.
"You guys can play together, me go turn a quest in!" Feng said, slang used by RP gamers when they wanna take a piss.
Before going away, he once again passed another order to Dracula. Telepathically telling Dracula to stall the three soul workers and amuse the goblin kid, Feng whisked away in front of their eyes.
Dracula understood that his mission was to please the goblin kid and loot some treasures out of the briefcase. Feng had empathized with the importance of this job to him during the telepathic chat. Dracula understood that completing this mission was the same as saving ten thousand worlds.
The three soul workers left behind awkwardly glanced at each other. Then they bowed towards the guardian of Earth and announced their names,
"Nice to see you, guardian of the mortal world, my name is Kang Su!"
Tael and Bam follow suit and announced their names humbly.
Dracula gave them a nod and announced his bullshit status to fulfill the quo of the bullshiter.
The three soul workers were impressed by his not so arrogant attitude and the environment turned harmless and chill.
Dracula took them inside the train to meet the other mortals. Along the way, the goblin kid asked many questions such as why the world he saw was devastated and why there are black clouds in the skies when according to the books he read there should only be white and fluffy clouds.
Somehow or another, Dracula came up with supreme bullshits to fool the goblin kid. The three soul workers didn't have a reason to interfere and notify the goblin kid as they didn't want disharmony between their fragile relationships.
If they do that then the punishment was adieu.
The contract stated such things!
They don't dare to break the rules of the contract.
The whipping Feng gave them has been deeply engraved in their souls, not just the souls, but also the assholes.
These workers know how deviant the tainted one was. Thankfully the tainted one has left the place and has gone somewhere else, and they were with the humble guardian of the world that needed saving. The three soul workers breathed a sigh of relief.
They passed through multiple cabins and reached a cabin decorated with tables, chairs, and food. This was probably the cafeteria area of the train.
Yeah, this train had a cafeteria in it. Not just a cafeteria but also an eight pool ball and a playground for kids. This was one hell of a train.
Anyway, the goblin kid looked at the humans kid with interests. While the humans and the human kids gazed back at the four beings that had entered the cabin where they were staying.
Some held fear, an instinct that burst out from the depth of their hearts when they saw the Soul Workers.
Now, let's expand on the underworld official ranking.
Three horned Little imp Guide for souls that reaches the underworld.
Two scythe Workers A team of two combined in one physical body. They are the one that usually takes the soul of animals to the Underworld.
USRS Universal Soul Relocation System. After years of hard work and scientific experiments, the demonic forgers of the underworld had created a system to relocate the souls of the dead to the Underworld. The system was given the name of USRS and it was applied in all the twelve universes. Though this system doesn't work on weak souls, like soul belonging to animals and plants.
Though souls of humans can be automatically selected to the underworld.
Ever since the creation of this system, Shinigamis as to say Grim Reapers had lost their meanings. Their main work was to capture the soul of dead humans and deposit them in the underworld.
Poo guys, fapped day and night to satisfy their sadness when they realized that their jobs had been forcefully taken out of their hands. Some had even started a revolt to shatter the underworld USRS. Why wouldn't they? They needed to eat and feed their family otherwise won't they die. Even though they are already dead, and this didn't even make sense to the underworld officials at that time, but they had to consent to the demand of the poor Grim Reapers that had been ripped off their passion due to the creation of USRS.
That's why the job called Soul Worker was created.
Shinigami/ Grim Reaper Soul Worker They fight off against worldly disasters and keep the balance between the four dimensions.
Once grim reapers, now soul workers were happy as they could finally afford to eat savory food and the expense that came from traveling around the universes and matting with curvaceous women, humans, or not.
Ever since that day, Soul Workers once Grim reapers had forgotten about their ancestry.
But naturally, they were grim reapers, a being that terrified the soul of the mortal. Their innate aura couldn't be changed even though their job and mentality have changed.
Meeting the being who they should only meet after their deaths, the mortals felt scared.
Even Arnold's ability Death Preception ran wild, rising shivers all over his body.
