1 the beginning

in the third floor of a hospital in a country during the night there was an old man with white hair laid on a bed holding a notebook and a pen while writing some mathematical formulas, on the top of the sheet there was "general theory of the universe" written.

the old man seemed to be a great figure as a lot of people would visit him everyday and the number of students was absolutely gigantic, some of his fellow scientists would come to ask him questions about physics and how some things worked, the old man was always wearing a smile as if his objective in life was to do research and teach everything he knew about the universe

it was as thought his main lover was the universe itself and he was crazy about discovering everyone of its secrets and was absolutely happy while doing so, the only thing he thought was as important as that was to inspire people's urges for knowledge as to make more people experience the same sensation.

He was acclaimed to be the most intelligent person to ever exist, he made some discoveries that completely changed how the people in his world saw the universe and his name was even used as a adjective that mean the same as intelligent.

The room he was in was extremely calm, there was no sound at all, even with cars passing on the street in front of the hospital and some nurses and patients making noise outside of the room, it seemed that even the universe itself seemed to be waiting for him to finish his thoughts.

after some time the old man let out a sigh.

"it seem that i won't have the time to discover everything in the end, but this life was really a happy one. I will continue tomorrow if there is the chance."

The old man put his notebook and pen on a little table that was besides his bed, he put his head on the pillow and closed his eyes, but remained with the thoughts about the functioning of the universe in his head to the point that even his dreams were about this topic and some of his ideas came through such dreams.

suddenly in the middle of the night the old man whispered

"I know"

all things seemed to stop for a instant, only a single instant and then everything went back to normal even if not the same as before, but you wouldn't be able to find someone capable of differentiate it in some minor world, even more so in a trash world like earth were the aura from the dao was incredibly faint

the old man opened his eyes, he had a little smile in his face, he went to reach for the notebook, but before that his hand lost the strength and fell, the old man took his last breath.

.............

In a incredible world there was a giant palace that float above a red sea, one sea where giant waves that could submerge cities was an often occurrence gigantic aquatic monsters could be seem, some bigger than the waves, but none dared to go below the palace where there was a hole that seemed to have no end, maybe it cold take you to another world, maybe to another dimension.

if you looked at the bottom of the red sea you would see black souls moving around from time to time and from there you could see countless golden spects falling from the palace into the gigantic hole, the ones that escaped from the hole changed their color to black

the palace gave a imposing aura, like it was used to be the center of a kingdom where the most important decisions were made. A old man, one that was clearly handsome in his young was seated in a throne that was situated in a empty hall, he was constantly yawning of pure boredom while holding a book that appeared to be as old as writing itself. In front of him was something like a ray of light that stretched from the roof to floor where some little people with variable sizes could be seen appearing from nowhere in the beginning of the ray in the that touched the roof and going downwards in the direction of the end of the ray that touched the floor.

Some people were as big as half a meter while numerous other where as small as a speck of dust, the bigger ones seemed to be screaming while fighting to go against the flux, but to no avail as if they were afraid of the event that would decide their future.

suddenly a frown appeared in the middle of the old man brows, he reached his hand to pick one of the little people in the ray and like magic one common little person floated in front of the old man, he gave the little person that seem to be made of light a deep look and after that he flipped some of the book's pages, the little person was really small maybe the smallest one that was in the ray, totally unremarkable.

the old man suddenly gave out a creepy laugh and his eyes flickered with a look of interest.

"hahahahah, that is something kinda crazy, how could a person from some trash world where there is the smallest trace possible of the dao in this universe could gaze so deep into the essence of all, at least i perceived his irregularities in time as it will allow me to have a shot in creating some problem to that shit kingdom of the sun god" the old man made a look of hate while conjuring some kind of magic his old book was giving of a golden glow.

"they dare to impose something into me, a minor judge of hell… even if they have the protection of a figure like the sun god, i can still be able to cause them some problems, i will arrange this little soul to be reincarnated in that broken moon empire so that he can compete with the sun kingdom new chosen that i was forced to spend my cultivation to send back to them. while the channel to that world is still open i will send some good souls to their enemy. hahahaa i am a genius."

he closed his golden book with a crazier look and pointed to the little person, a ray of silver colored light involved the little person

"hmmm... as I found a soul so good as this i may as well try to preserve some of the soul's comprehension, I hope that this effort pays off and I may have some good karma in the future".

he opened his golden book again and finally ended his spell, he picked the little soul in his hand, then he threw him towards the floor with all of his force, the little person went through the palace at light speed till he disappeared in the hole below the palace.

"opps, i think i threw it a little to the left, whatever, even if he is not reborn as some main heir he will still be born in the broken moon empire lands, I hope that he grows to be some imposing figure and cause a lot of troble to the sun kingdom."

the old man was one of the uncountable minor judges, responsable for judging and deciding the future of souls from thousands of minor worlds and some medium worlds. He was a figure of high status that rose above millions of ghosts and was used to be treated as such, even if he hadn't that much of decision power in the underworld he was a person to be treated carefully.
