Chapter 02: Interstellar

In the year 2045, 21 years after he left, the Blue Star was invaded by the sudden attack of Zergs, leaving humanity helpless. Because of the cruelty that it brought, it disrupted the harmony of every country. The silent war that everyone fought erupted, making the weak become the target. Because of the power of large families, people from rural and indigenous were the last to have the chance to leave the planet. But even so, most of their population was almost wiped out, not because of the Zerg, but due to starvation, abuse and helplessness.

So when humans left the dying Blue Star and landed on the new habitable planet, the rich families who live only realize the importance of having the people underneath their power. If they don't have them, who will work for them? Who will build their infrastructure? Who will cook for them? Who will wash their clothes, drive for them? All those who are in power have long been ignorant about how to do the necessaries in life and without the help of their maids and housekeeper that they ruthlessly left, they were like the spoiled child who was left by their nannies to do their own as their parents want them to be independent. And all this was the cause of greed and cruelty.

All their lives, they were used to being the one who only needed to sit and open their mouths. How did the hands and feet break, who can guarantee their lives?

Because of this crisis, another war erupted among them. The stronger who had power became more aggressive and forced the lower to work for them and they became crazy building robots that could work for them. And as for those who were saved from the Blue Star, they were forced to do the work and some were even sold in an auction hall.

All this unhappiness happened for almost 15 years until the planet finally stabilized and they named their new home as Era Federation.

Era as the symbol of a new beginning.

Since then, rules were written as the top list among the aristocratic families were assigned as the main controller. Average and normal families were given a chance to live and work like normal days in the past until years and years... then the 3024 began.

Qin An, still wearing his all black Grim Reaper suit— a black long robe and wide hat, was walking amidst the buzzing crowd of the new world before him.

As familiarizing himself with the virtual screen— which was actually called a brain— he found the map which led him out of the forest. Now, looking at the tall buildings and unfamiliar technology, he was helpless.

Although this era really fascinates him because of the high technology, this only gave him a headache. How can you live somewhere when you don't even know what's going on around you?

It was fortunate that he had this brain because it means he's registered to this world so no one will doubt his identity. What made his head ache was the pitiful zero on his bank account.

No money, no shelter.

Find work? How? Every job has requirements and his information was all basic. It was clean without any history.

So the former senior grim reaper who was sought out by countless branches in the underworld was now walking like a homeless man.

But this homeless man was actually in the eyes of others around him. Being at the high position in the past, Qin An was already used to the eyes around him so he continues to walk normally... it's just, the former was the eyes filled with both fear and admiration, while this time around, those were full of curiosity and naturally... shy?

He was confused but decided to forget those eyes and focus on thinking about his plans for the future.

Looking at his tall and straight back, the girls who were happily sneaking looked at him with longing and admiration.
