Between The Region

CHAPTER 4: Elysian Fields

I could feel someone was walking carrying me, and for the first time in my life I felt the tranquility of peace in my heart. I tried to open my eyes only to be greeted by the handsome, no, angelic face of a man. I attempt to move a little so that he will know that I'm already awake and he can now put me down.

When he felt me move, he directly gave me soft-looking eyes and he smiled as if welcoming me to this world.

"Welcome to the Elysian Fields," he said in his affable tone.

A bit disoriented, I let myself detach from his arms and did my best to stand up.

I saw a small trail and asked him, "Where am I and where will you take me?"

The cool spring wind gently blows across his face and through his hair. He took a deep breath before he answered me.

"You are here in the place where the souls of the good go after death. It is a peaceful and beautiful region, full of meadows, groves, sunlight, and fresh air. "

Is there a place for a good soul after death? What is that? I'm already dead? The countless questions I uttered breathlessly as I slowly looked around, trying to discern where this man had brought me.

The fated time for you to die has come. Your journey in the mortal world has been a bit hard, eh? Forgive me if you must have had a rough life. I'm just trying to protect you from them. The words he said added to my confusion.

What the hell is this man talking about? Am I the target of a sick joke? I asked myself.

With a confused mind, I arch my brow at him, waiting for him to say it's just a prank. The last thing I remember is that I slept, and then I heard voices, and damn, I remember I saw a man playing a piano and, err, laughing like a psychopathic mad man. What exactly is going on in my life that is so wonderful? Mark the sarcasm.

Could you please elaborate? Because I couldn't understand everything I heard and saw! I just saw a man's cousin, no, a brother of a demon! And now you're telling me that in this place I don't know I am dead! I shout as anger and confusion start to irritate me.

"Lady, relax your nerves. I'm just trying to help. I didn't know that your short temper was ready to erupt at any minute. Our mighty Elohim gave me a mission to fetch you because there is someone ruining the balance, and it seems he succeeded in bringing you to the nether regions, and you saw him, the khoshekh offspring, and about you being dead. He lengthy replied, "Yeah, you are really dead because, in the first place, you do not belong to them."

It shocked me that this man wanted me to believe that I was already dead. I grasped both my hands and said nothing because I wanted my mind to absorb everything.

Before I banged my head on the nearest tree, he clasped my right arm with his hand and mumbled, "We must hurry. The keeper will be the one to further explain everything to you. I do not appreciate it when someone is about to invade my place, and I need to take care of it before it destroys my home. "

The last thing he said before he carried me and we hovered through the clouds!
