Death God System

With a big smile showing his sharp teeth Zufan smiled. "Understood now?"

'What the hell I'm supposed to understand here... This guy is strong, the strongest being I ever faced.' The strength emanating for him was real and on top of that he was not serious at all, even spit could erase me. I really hoped he was an easy going guy. With care I watched the surrounding trying to detect something out of normal or something that could give me a clue. The chains disappeared and I remained sitting on that weird stone, Zufan was still watching and laughing. He seems to have fun at my confused face. I wondered why...

"You see Ye Bai, you will be here a long time..." with that he started laughing again. Seriously what was so fun of being chained?

"Zufan, you seem to know where are we, also I really don't understand this chain stuff..." I said sractching my head, 'I really know nothing'

Zufan got quiet, observing me... his eyes started to turn yellowish, some kind of weird golden colour. I felt observed from the insides like I had nothing to hide from him.

"Well, well, well. A newcomer uh?"

Turning my head around I saw behind me a small being, also human or it seems to be he was cloaked with a pink cape, its features weren't clear. The voice resembled that of a man. But after the incident with Shallow, I couldn't exactly trust my senses.

Zufan eyes returned to normal watching this new being who also appeared out of nowhere.

"Zufan, what's gotten into you? You suddenly released a roar, we thought you finally managed to escape from here." giggled this small form.

"Indeed, I found a way." his long and strong fingers pointed at me. "He's unchained, plus he's not on that stage yet, he barely started."

The small creature next to me jumped out, release another roar strong enough to deter anyone in the world, I swear my soul almost stopped existing, even the Death Core trembled. 'Where the fuck I ended...'

81 chains surrounded this small creature.

"Are you serious! This is no joke Zufan. All of us have been chained here for god knows how long. The oldest one of us lost the count at few billions of years."

A soft and melodious voice sounded out from the giant woman to my surprise.

"Indeed, this being whose race is unknown, hold some key to be able to exit here. Forgive my manners, young man. I was too excited and couldn't control myself." said this giant woman whose body was moving to sit somehow. Its features were now more clear to me, truth to be told before I saw her somehow blurry. Its eyes purple mixed with black got through me, I couldn't stop myself from wonder if she was blind or something, otherwise why she would touch me?

What followed next proved my right.

"You are a quite intelligent young man, indeed I'm blind. Or more accurately my race is blinded. We are all born with this cursed eyes which don't allow us to see anything in the world beside the only thing that can kill us..."

"Wait, what? Your eyes only let you see you the only thing it will kill you?" How weird could these eyes be? An entire race with this kind of setup... Honestly, it sounded too weird.

"Yes, our entire race was born like this. That's why I had to touch you to sense what Zufan with his eyes could see about you. And I have to say that he was right and wrong at the same time, or at least for me."

"That's odd Zamina, why would you say that?" Concern was all over Zufan face. Zamina couldn't keep her face straight and sighed.

"When I touched the kid I could see and understand what you saw but at the same time, I could see him..." Zamina did a slight pause looking smiling at me. "You hold my life and my death, or to be more precise something inside you."

"Zamina... are you sure? How's that even possible. Not even us can kill you. Neither time. But this kid can?" said Zufan frowning. Clearly, he didn't believe it was possible for me to kill her and to be honest neither I did how could I kill her. From my point of view, I was really weak to compare to these beings. Hell, even that Nascent Soul trashed me until I ended in that lamentable state. The thought of revenge started to fill up my mind and I got distracted out of their conversation.

It kinda feels like a lovers quarrel at some point.

"Zufan don't worry. He being able to kill me doesn't mean he would do so."

"Alright, alright I will drop this matter for the time being. Kid if you harm her in any way you will wish you were dead... What's so funny?"

I couldn't help but chuckle there, I was already dead... Hell, I was supposed to be death itself or something like that not that I have figured it out. Surprisingly Zamina also started laughing and without me knowing I appeared sat in her shoulder.

Zufan blushed, pointing at her and complaining in a strange language.
