1 Trial of Yama
It was a pleasant morning and I was excited.
Today I was going to publish my novel.
After being turned down many times by publishers, finally I found someone to publish it. I was very happy.
One year back when i was depressed about not getting a job, i was broken from inside, to relieve stress i did everything and i found something for it ,Reading novels.
Various novels containing various stories of various heroes.
Soon i read almost 1000 Novels, it became hard for me to find a new one to read.
Then I decided to write a novel myself.since i am bad at writing , it ended up taking more than one year to complete one volume.
It is a story of a boy whose fate was already decided before his birth and has to face a cruel fate of being a hero.
I hope I judge the hero of my story pretty well, at least in my views.
oh i already reached the Publishing house.
"What do you mean, you Can't publish it?
You agreed to it, didn't you ? Please publish it, i don't need any money. please "
Tears are flowing through my eyes , I am begging him. Maybe for him it is some worthless story but for me it is like my meaning of life.
One more publisher refused to publish it. I am not going to give up , I will find a way to publish it.I tried to convince myself but deep inside I gave up long ago.
" Hey stop , You are already surrounded by police."
Someone was running toward me ,pushed me to the ground and put the gun's muzzle on my head.
What is happening ?
" Stop you fools, Don't take any more steps or I will kill him."
My limbs are Already losing strength because of my bad fate. I hate my fate.
Dried tears start following again. Everything turned blurry and sounds started fading slowly and with a shrill pain in my head everything turned silent.
Last thing I saw before closing my eyes was my blood soaked novels torn pages.
When I opened my eyes, There is nothing but an endless road passing through an endless desert.
I started walking with nothing in my mind. Just trying to forget about my worthless life. In the endless road I passed through many people but neither they talked to me nor I wanted to talk.
How much time has been passed already? Is it 10minutes, 10Hours or 10Days ,i Don't know.
I walked and walked until I found myself in a waiting line outside an old building.
Why am I here ? What was I thinking a minute ago ?
I started forgetting everything since I started walking on this road.
Only thing I remember is my name. Maybe i will forget it soon.
"Aarav Keshawa, You are next. Prepared for your trial ."
A soft and soothing voice brought my attention to him.
A man,quite young looking at me with a serious expression.
I entered the building and found myself in the middle of the room.
In front of me there was a man in white and black coat and Silver coloured hat with a tense face.
He was sitting behind a table full of documents and was writing something.
He is working hard, isn't he ? You should take some rest ?
"Thank you for your concern Mr keshawa, it is pretty rare to find a man like you."
Can he read my mind? I am staring at him but he is not responding like before .
"You died because of a rundown criminal and police skirmish. That's sad to hear.
But you shouldn't die there, did you choose death by yourself ?"
A kind and concerned face is looking at me but i Can't comprehend what he is talking about.
"Oh boy, I am Yama, god of judgement, I choose who can go to hell or heaven."
Am I dead ? Did I really want to die?
"Yes you died and frankly speaking you chose to die that means it is suside.So i am sending you to hell ."
"Wait, Please wait a minute Yama Sama, I didn't want to die, so maybe in that situation I chose it unconsciously."
"Hmm, it is a possibility but i still can't change my decision."
" In my whole life , I have never hurt someone . The world is cruel for me but I never gave up.
Can't you give a chance to atone for this stupidity ."
" Hmm, Well you are right. But i Can't send back your soul to your body and nor can I reincarnate you in another world."
Did he predict my words too ?
"Then what will happen to me ?"
"You will be stuck at the border between life and death and feel pain until you suffer enough to clean your sins ."
" I knew it, even after my death I couldn't find happiness."
"You can go now, someone will guide you to the border."
I turned and like a lifeless doll started walking toward the exit.
" Mr Keshawa, Please wait ?"
huhh, he is calling me, didn't i get my judgement ?
"I Can't reincarnate you but I can do something for you."
"Likewise "
"In the countless worlds, there are some worlds, where heroes are summed from another world. I can bypass these summing paths and put you there.
so that you can reincarnate."
"No, I don't want to be a hero. I read countless stories and in each story the hero lost his precious things more than anyone.
I don't want a more cruel fate than the present."
"But your fate is decided already ."
With a wave of his hands a sunshine like golden light enveloped me .
something pulled me and in the next instant i was on a white marbled floor surrounded by deep whitish mist.
in front me there were a boy and a girl with their backs facing me. I was behind them.
"Welcome Heros, You were summoned to cleanse the darkness of my world, Anthea. Basic information is already feeded in your head.
So I will come directly to the point. My precious heros i am going to give you some unique skills as well as weapons with basic survival skills that will help you for your journey.
First , Alfred Ferro, Your soul is brighter than sunshine and pure than a child, i shall bestow upon you The Holy Sword, The Ardennes. The unique skill, divine Warrior is given to you. I wish you a bright future."
And the boy vanished before I could even see his face.
"Second, Sufia Hermes , A heart bigger than sea and warmer than sun, I shall bestow upon you the divine bow of judgement, The Ravine.
The unique skill, The divine healer is given to you. With this you can help people to cure them."
And she vanished as well.
"Now the third, wait third !
Who are you ? I didn't summon you ?."
