[BL] Debut in Interstellar After Retiring as Grim Reaper

Chapter 01: Retirement

Chapter 01: Retirement

"Senior Reaper No. 444, you have served for a thousand years and accumulated enough merits to gain one wish to fulfill." A solemn voice sounded in the judgment room of the underworld.

The whole place was dark and full of majesty. The Judgement Hall, the place wherein all living things will be judged after finishing their purpose in this world. Some are deceased people who will be judged based on their lives and merits. They will either be punished or can be reincarnated after crossing the Naihe Bridge and drinking the Meng Po soup. On the other hand, for those who served the underworld, this judgment hall can either be a place to make them suffer after a mistake... or a place wherein a new door will open to change your life for a lifetime.

And he, a senior who served for thousands of years, had accumulated more than enough merits after doing his job- a grim reaper. His mission was to receive souls after their death and lead them to the Judgement Hall wherein they will be judged. Then after the soul was sentenced, they will lead them to wherever they have to go- hell or reincarnate.

On this day, the Judge suddenly calls for him and decides to make a judge after his long hard work. He didn't know what got them why they decided to judge him, they don't know their criteria. They only knew that they have to do their work properly even if it's a repeated job for so many centuries and wait for the judge to see if it's enough to fulfill a wish for them.

They, the Grim Reapers, were born naturally to do this job. He can't remember his childhood and only vaguely remember how he started doing this job. After all, thousands of years have passed, even for his outstanding memory, you will most likely forget it. Now, it was his time to be a judge.

And hearing the Judge solemnly acknowledge his efforts and decide to repay him, he didn't know what to feel- no, what can a reaper like him feel? They are surrounded with death every time and after watching different deaths and griefs, emotions had already left their body, especially for him who lived for so long.

Now that his purpose to live was about to end, his mind went blank for a moment. What will he do after this?

"Senior Reaper No. 444 what is your wish?"

He came back to his senses when he heard those questions. What wish does he want? Power? Fame? Or anything, he can't think of it. He has no desires nor anything that can make him fluctuate so what will be his wish?

His eyes lowered and light flickered through it.

After a few seconds, his indifferent eyes stare straight at the large throne- only the throne because he cannot see who's sitting as it was engulfed with darkness- in front of him. Then, he opens his mouth and speaks using his somewhat nonchalant voice.

"I want to become a human."

Silence engulfed the hall but it was only for a second and the Judge talked again.

"Then, I'll grant your wish."

Afterwards, he suddenly felt a mysterious power surrounding him. And before he lost his consciousness, he heard the Judge continue his words.

"A new fate will start again. Until next time, Qin An..."
