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.
"A Collapsed World?!" both Huo Ling and Mo Shi exclaimed when they heard what Yi Bing and Jin Wu told them about their new mission.
"En. We are going to Collapsed Worlds." Yi Bing nodded in affirmation.
"… wait, what is a Collapsed World?" Mo Shi asked and tilted his head. A puzzled expression is on his face.
Yi Bing, Huo Ling, and Jin Wu. "…" you don't know what is a Collapsed World, then what's with your reaction earlier?! They all thought.
Yi Bing and Huo Ling looked at Jin Wu, whose expression is blank and is looking at Mo Shi as if he wanted to strangle Mo Shi. Yi Bing's expression remained expressionless, as usual, while Huo Ling has a smile on his face.
Mo Shi noticed their silence and he froze.
"… you didn't read those books that I gave you before to study?" Jin Wu asked as his eyes narrowed while he looked at Mo Shi.
