1 Dying strangely

In a certain place in a divine kingdom, there were four figures seated on a large table, they had solemn faces and they felt fatigued as it could be seen in each one's eyes.

Divine Entity 1: * Sigh * "No matter how much we try, it still gives the same result ..."

Divine Entity 2: "I see ... What are we doing wrong?"

Divine Entity 3: "I do not know, we have tried to solve this a million times, but everything is the same"

You could feel the fatigue in his voice.

Divine Entity 1: "Should we try again?"

The first Entity asked its companions, who were rubbing their foreheads trying to think, and this had happened many times trying to save the universes of the world, but they were trapped in this problem where a world keeps repeating an infinite cycle without advancing.

The have been trying to change the story, but the gears are always integrated again and again causing disasters.

Divine Entity 4: "I think ..."

The fourth member who always remained silent raised his hand as he amended his words and everyone turned their eyes

"We must send a soul to change history".

His friends were confused. To send a soul? If they even sent a spirit, the world would be eliminated only by the massive power or the twisting of space. They did not understand his words, but even so, Entity number one asked the doubts of the others.

Divine Entity 1 "What do you mean by sending a soul?.

Divine Entity 4: "I am talking about sending a mortal soul from another dimension to try to change the story"

The Entities around frowned before answering.

Divine Entity 2 "Are you saying you want to bring a soul that is about to die? Is that not the game that the God of life always plays?"

Divine Entity 4: "Exactly, although we are all against the methods of that God even so we must admit that his worlds are kept in peace and without problems because of those who reincarnate".

His companions first contemplated the plan, although the divine entities were against the God of life because of playing with human lives which is silly, they have always been somewhat jealous of the way in which his worlds resolve themselves due to the souls. Also, they were thankful because some of the souls that managed to ascend to the Divine were removing a little of their work.

Divine Entity 3 "It makes sense. But who will do it? Know that when we leave the divine area we will lose a bit of our power, something that can be dangerous outside."

Although all the worlds are governed by the area of divinity, there are things in the darkness like those who failed in their ascent becoming evil creatures that roam the realms.

Divine Entity 4 "I was the one with the idea, so I'll be the one to complete the task"

When they heard it, the others looked at each other and then nodded.

They began to plan what kind of soul to reincarnate and in what form they will give the gifts. They soon came to an agreement which was that there is a world where the stories of the other universes are like novels and manga. Even the gods did not know how that world got the knowledge of those universes when they went to investigate they never found anything, therefore, they opted to let it pass because in that place there was no magic or anything like it. Besides the god of life always chose its souls from there.

Thus the Fourth Divine Entity left the divine area to seek a powerful soul...

-Somewhere else-

On a busy street in Japan, what could be seen was a large crowd in the middle of the road with phones in hand, sending messages, others talking on the phone, while some taking pictures of a silhouette in a pool of blood.

The person who was there was our protagonist who looked towards the sky, while the lights in his eyes were slowly extinguished, the ambulance had not even arrived and he no longer felt his body.

"I did not think my life would end like this".

He began to remember everything that happened before the accident.

-Previous scenes-

This morning, Yukio got up like every other day, always up at five to prepare his breakfast and go jogging, then watch some shows or animes until noon and then he had to work.

It was like every morning a simple breakfast while watching the news.

"There have been sightings of strange circumstances in the city center, citizens are informed to be cautious," said a reporter as he walked through the center of the city.

"They have been increasing recently." thought Yukio.

The last time something strange happened was in a nearby downtown area where a cafeteria collapsed suddenly or in the subway where the floor suddenly collapsed.

Soon he finished his breakfast and dressed in sports clothes while going out for a run, he always went around the area a few times while buying some goodies for when he returned home.

Ring ~ Ring ~ Ring ~

Soon his phone rang, it seemed strange that someone called him so early, but when he saw the communicator he felt happy.

"Hello Sister"

"Oh, little Yukio, where are you? You know, I'm downstairs in your apartment."

"Downstairs, are not you supposed to come tomorrow?"

It seemed strange to him because she was supposed to arrive tomorrow afternoon.

"Why so many questions? Did you not miss me? I feel hurt !!"

"Hehehe it´s not that, I thought it was strange because your train should arrive tomorrow"

"I know, I know, I wanted to surprise you, but who would have thought you would not be here?"

When he heard it, he had a headache because he wanted to prepare to welcome her, but she happened to deceive him by telling him that she would arrive tomorrow.

"* Sigh * Good! Look, you gave me a big surprise, wait a little bit, I'm close to home "

"Okay ~ In that case, I'll wait, is the key still in the same place?"

"Yes, it won´t take me long, for now, do not touch anything"

"Good ~"

When he heard her say that, he already knew that she would go through his things, but he did not care because he had nothing to hide.

As he walked home, he had to cross the city center again to reach his sister quickly. He quickened his pace and when he stopped at a traffic light out of the corner of his eye he noticed that a little girl was at the entrance of what looked like a restaurant playing with a bouncing ball.

But that was not what he was seeing, he noticed something strange over the little girls head, it seemed like black smoke, which made him feel dazed, but then he heard a noise when he looked up and could see a poster that seemed to fall towards her.

"GET AWAY FROM THERE!"

Shouting as loud as he could towards her, this made the crowd look at him. Yukio ran with all his strength as if the world was placed in slow motion for him. The people nearby had also noticed what was happening and had the same thought

Some of those who were closer to the girl wanted to save her, but to his surprise, Yukio was like a lightning bolt when he reached her he felt something was wrong. He still took her and threw her towards a person who was behind him because it was too late for him; Still, the poster would not kill him but what happened next did.

* BOOM *

You could hear a loud explosion when suddenly, the restaurant exploded and fragments of stones and glass flew everywhere. It goes without saying that our protagonist was sent to fly like a comet with several fragments of glass trapped in his chest, abdomen, and arms falling back just to land in a position to see the sky.
