Paragon of Death

Life from birth has been nothing but hell. I lost my parents to some stupid aristocrats whom they offended. Executed for no good reason. My relatives abandoned me and pushed me aside. They feared for their lives and left me and my sister to starve and wander the streets alone! No, this is worse than hell! I watched my sister die of starvation. Her lips were dry and her feet bloody. Her nails were broken and her fingers riddled with cuts. She struggled in my hands and after a few seconds of struggle she passed away. She seemed joyful in death so I prayed mine will come just as swift and merciful as hers. So I stayed in the alleyway, alone with her rotten corpse awaiting my fate for God knows how long. I could see it already. The darkness encroaching from all sides Everyone said death is scary but I say it's the end! Who needs life after death? What is the need for reincarnation? Who would want to return to this crazy world? "It's not yet time for you to go... You have one more task to accomplish as my host" A voice called out to me. I could barely see or speak but how can I miss such a beautiful face? It was an extremely handsome man who gazed at me with tender eyes. "Haven't I suffered enough? Can't I just rest?" I cried out. Why would I want to stay back in such a cruel world? "Don't you want to avenge the death of your parents? Don't you want to become something greater? I can make that happen!" The beautiful man said with an alluring voice. "You... Who are you?" I asked with an anxious heart. My parents always said God is the only one who cares about me! Maybe in my final hours, he has come to save me. "Call me Death..."

Commandment of Pacifism vs Sin of Greed

Lu Jin stood gracefully on his airborne sword, his white robes billowing in the aftermath of the intense clash. His expression was a mixture of annoyance and frustration, directed at the seemingly undeterred Derek.

Derek, however, displayed no signs of pain or distress as he slowly extended the stump of his right arm, his pitch-black eyes glistening with intrigue. Lu Jin's frown deepened as he regarded Derek with suspicion. "You must have endured an incredible amount of physical pain in your past life to be so numb to suffering," he commented.

In response, Derek let out a chuckle, a dark humor dancing in his eyes. His hand began to grow at a visible rate, a phenomenon that left Lu Jin somewhat taken aback. On Derek's right shoulder, the tattoo of the bony werewolf, the Ancestral Undying Wolf, was visible. It was this powerful ancestral tattoo that allowed Derek to regrow his limbs, a formidable ability that made him unafraid of direct confrontations.
