What is a dreadharvester

Haruka's dog had no clue what she meant, but after seeing her impression, he had no choice. Morgana's expression was serious; it switched between anger and sadness. He decided to help them and find his master.

A blue, glowing energy started to erupt from his body. He concentrated the energy a few centimeters before his nose, closed his eyes for a minute, and shouted, "I have got her!"

He turned towards the door and rushed out of the house with Thanatos and Morgana.

"Hey Morgana, what did they plan with her?" Thanatos expected an answer, but nothing came out of Morgana's mouth. She only ran while looking towards the floor. Tears started to run down her cheeks as she dropped to the floor.

'Just what happened, and why is whatever they plan doing with Haruka so cruelsome that you have to cry because of that?

After 10 minutes of running, Morgana opened her mouth and whispered.

"The reason they are doing this is because of what happened. On September 20, 2019, in Kyoto."

Hey, what is it that happened on this day?"

Haruka's soul bond was asking in a confused manner. He had already heard a few people talk about this day, but what exactly happened was unknown to him.

Dog, before I say that, let me ask you a question. Why do you think we grim reapers specialize in hunting and killing dreadharvesters?"

The dog searched all around his mind, but he found no reason why. There were many beings that needed souls. Demons, for example, grew stronger every time they ate a soul. Or witches needed them too. But they didn't hunt them. Yes, they didn't allow them to get away with it. But in most cases, they don't kill them.

"We grim reapers have a different name for these beings.", "We also call them corrupted reapers'."

A grim reaper is the personification of death. They help souls get to heaven or hell. They protect them and hunt dreadharvesters. But what is a dreadharvester? Only grim reapers are allowed to know that.

"We grim reapers have an old language.The language our race once created. The word dreadharvesters derives from the word. Drefondra. Drefondra. Dre means corrupt, and Fondra means death. Corruptedeath." Thanatos closed his eyes and thought for a second about whether he should continue. These words were only aloud to be heard from a grim reaper. But he made up his mind in order to explain things better to him.

"Drefondra is a phenomenon that can occur in a grim reaper, the conditions for which are different. But to keep it short. The Soulsycle is the trigger for this. A Soulsycle is not a simple tool. They are something special. They each have their own personality and characteristics. You can offend them or make them angry at you, and if they really hate you and don't want to be in your hands or the Soulsycle's power gets out of your control, a Dremondra occurs. The Soulsycle repels its owner and reaps his soul."

The dog couldn't realize what he heard right now, and after all that, it was a piece of cake to find out what a dreadharvester really is.

"A Dreadharvester is a grim reaper that lit under a Dremondra. It has no souls; his soul is sealed in his own Soulsycle, and with that, it is lost for eternity."

Thanatos continued with his explanation after giving the dog a little bit of a time to process all the information. But then continued.

"They search for their souls, and in this search, they take away the souls of other beings. They devour them, just to realize that nothing happens. Their soul does not fit their body and gets lost inside of them."

Thanatos closes his eyes and then shouts in anger, "Do you now remember why we hunt them? They were once us; they did the same thing we did, and then they corrupted and devoured what we were supposed to protect. We just do it because it hurts our pride; we feel responsible."

Hunting the dreadharvester is just an act out of personal meters. It is a selfish reason. Back then, when he learned that in school, The whole classroom was silent for the whole day. There was no talking; all felt feared. A few even got afraid of their own Soulsycle and a few of them are still afraid today. Out of their many grim reapers, there are those who don't use their Soulsycle and only depend on death arts, and this fear is only the reason why death arts got invented. Out of fear of their own selves.

But that is a thing every grim reaper has to learn. There is no immortal being on this world; everything can die, and the reason can be as cruel as it is ridiculous.

"Back then, a powerful dreadharvester roamed around and killed many, many beings. Under these beings were also many grim reapers, and these grim reapers were 95% of the Shinigami clan. Together with many other grim reapers. One of these was a good friend of mine. They all died together, along with 89% of Yokai and Ayakashi, who were living in Japan. It roamed around the whole country and slaughtered all the grim reapers I mentioned previously in Kyoto. On September 20th, 2019. Right now, we have 2022, and the Shinigami clan has survived this loss until today. The dreadharvester is alive until today."

Thanatos expression darkened. He couldn't speak without screaming right now, and so he decided to remain silent until he calmed himself down.

"How long will it take until we arrive?" Morgana asked.

"Not more than 10 minutes I don't think that this is the right time to explain everything." The dog understood one thing: whatever happened was nothing that could be told in 10 minutes.

Well, the only thing you have to know is that many people died, and for their motive, that is something that you can explain in less than 10 minutes."
