50,000 years ago, Hell was destroyed because of too much Foul from the resentment of the souls that later turned to Soul Eaters and devoured everything in their wake, leaving nothing of Hell. The gods above in Heaven, in order to take care of the newly-died souls, created the Afterlife Department comprised of grim reapers. Huo Ling was delivering food that day when he met Yi Bing and the guy gave him a warning. When he arrived to the customer's unit, he was killed. Huo Ling: you set up a death flag for me! Yi Bing: I'm a grim reaper. I'm the flag myself. Let me help you solve the mystery of your death. Huo Ling: your sister! Alternative title: The Different Ways I Died at 23 Update: daily
Lower Heaven, Afterlife Department, infirmary.
"He is safe, right?" Yi Bing asked as he looked at Huo Ling who is lying down on the patient bed with an extremely pale face. "He won't… recover his memories?" he asked in a low voice.
"He won't." Shen Sheng answered and patted Yi Bing's shoulder to assure him. Then, he sighed in relief.
He was really frightened when he felt the Soul Fragment's power being sucked. It was Huo Ling's Soul Fragments so, naturally, it was Huo Ling who is sucking the Soul Fragments' power. Even if it is Huo Ling's powers, still, sucking too much power could not only destroy his body, but also his soul! Huo Ling's soul would explode! After all, Huo Ling's current soul is also one of the fragments of his original soul.
