Death God System

You Ye stood at the entrance of the temple without moving. I could sort of understand what was her mind going through, there were too many "What if" on her mind. To be honest, I didn't have any high expectation, I knew I could heal myself once the System was working properly again. I grabbed You Ye skinny hand with my only hand, I watched as her head turned to focus on my face. A soft smile flourished on my face, her face softened.

"Don't worry too much. We will make it." I said encouraging her. Somehow I felt I was getting better at interacting with women.

"Silly, I'm more worried for you than for me." You Ye replied back to me with a radiant smile.

Both of us remained looking at each other, moments later we both chuckle.

Her steps echoed through the empty temple, no matter where we walked it was empty. The Greek Temple looked old, it wasn't in ruins, but the pass of time did some minor damage to it. I still found strange why was a Greek Temple here. I mean the culture of this world so far it was similar to the Chinese culture back at my previous world. For sure there were some differences but not that big so a Greek Temple could be built.

Greeks Temples used to have a statue inside or some alter for the worship of some sort yet in this one there was nothing at all. I scrubbed each corner with my soul --it was far more useful than my sight-- but found nothing. You Ye was touching everywhere, moving what was left of her beautiful hands. I could see her frenetic face, she was getting desperate, tears constantly flowing out of her eyes.

"You Ye, let's rest here tonight," I said waiting for her reply.

"Brother Ye, I'm sorry. I..."

I interrupted her with an embrace. I didn't want for her to feel worse after all it was no big deal once the System started to work normally. She broke down, she was strong but the reality was harsh. She pledged love to a half body, she lost half her life on top of that her head was filled with hope by some stupid old man words it was normal for her to cry like a baby. It took her 3 whole hours crying before she finally felt sleep.

It took myself 2 hours to settle my thoughts after You Ye felt sleep. I was utterly disappointed in myself, no matter the power I had, the number of people I erased from this plane of existence I couldn't protect women. Shu Yi and Shu Er disappeared I knew nothing about them, You Ye ended in this state because of me. I was starting to wonder if I brought back luck to those around me.

There were far too many questions filling my head, I was not good at all with philosophy but each question brought me to more questions. I couldn't remember anymore where I was or how all this started only questions and questions.

I lost track of all my senses.

Suddenly I found myself surrounded by darkness devoid of any sound.

'Did my soul get out of the Death Core? Could it be... my body was destroyed!'

I started to panic, if my body was destroyed I should have been again with my ball form yet I wasn't. I doubted the Death Core was destroyed but I didn't understand where I was, I was getting worried sick for You Ye.

"Where I am?" I said to myself.

"Inside you" answered a familiar voice.

"Inside me?" I muttered trying to understand what this familiar voice told me. Inside me where? I have been already inside my soul form several times but this wasn't like this.

"Yes inside you," said the voice.

"Who are you! Show yourself." I shouted. I don't have time for this bullshit I need to go an save You Ye

"You are not in control?" said the voice.

"In control of what? Tell me! I'm not in the mood to play games." I yelled to the darkness. I couldn't detect where the voice was coming from.

"I do not know. I'm sealed here because of you. You should know what had you done?" explained the voice.

Now, this was getting more confused. I remained silent some minutes to think about what the voice told me so far. Finally, after some thought, I knew why the voice sounded so familiar. Shi Yin sister, the voice of the Demon Timeless Sword. Back then to prevent her soul from dissipating I sealed her with the System. Hold on... I'm inside the System? What that even possible? The System said before that it was fused with my Soul but I been several times inside my soul and the System was not there or even present as some sort of space. But then again... how it was possible that I was in the same place as the sealed soul?

"Hey! You are Shi Yin sister right?" I asked without delicacy.

"Yes, you finally remember me." replied the familiar voice which belonged to Shi Yin sister.

"I remember I sealed you, have you untied the seal?" I need her to provide me with more information or I wouldn't be able to know where the hell I am. If she wasn't sealed she should be dissipating base on the state she was before I sealed her.

"No, since the moment you sealed me I was here. When you absorbed me I thought I would cease to exist but I didn't. After that I appeared here, then I was afraid that I will continue to dissipate yet I didn't. At first, I thought time was static here or something like that, but I could feel some traces of time so I knew time was not static. But I don't understand why my soul is not dissipating it's like the process has been stopped even though my soul was so badly damaged. As if something glued all the pieces together and I became a whole soul again even though I'm so badly damaged."

At least I know I know sealing her soul was the right path, it would prevent her soul from dissipating, but still, her explanation didn't reveal too much information.

Suddenly a bell sound echoed through my mind several times.

[Ding!]
