Rebirth of the mighty overlord

Life after death!

A clear blue sky stretched as far as the eyes could see as many clouds drifted far into the distance.

Beneath the tranquil sky somewhere on a hilly mountain there was a majestic looking castle.

The castle was seemingly built out of pure gold and silver giving a beautiful image to anyone lucky enough to glance at the exterior of the castle, inside the throne room of the castle sitting on an extravagant looking throne there was a woman sitting comfortably there.

Her long, luscious silver hair fell down to her waist, her eyes were a beautiful violet color like that of precious amethyst.

Her skin was slightly pale in color but still looked radiant, beneath the right corner of her soft lips that was painted purple a single tiny beauty mark that brings out a different kind of charm.

A deep purple dressed, with beautiful flower embroidery clung tightly to her curvaceous body.

While the nice weather of the sky that could be viewed by the opened window nearby would give one a pleasant feeling, the goddess, Udea's expression was slightly contorted in worry.

'Sigh! How long is he going to take? He should have reached here hours ago.'

Udea's lips turned into an adorable pout as she thought of Ellard who hasn't shown up yet, was he avoiding her? She couldn't help but wonder, though, she didn't remember doing anything to upset him.

Ellard was always a loner who would rather be alone than with others but, Udea was different she was the only person he was really close to ever since she saved his life that day.

She slowly closed her violet eyes as she waited patiently. However, something unexpected happened.

Crack!

A beautiful necklace that hung softly around her delicate neck cracked as the small red orb shattered to pieces.

"No! Wh-Why?!"

Udea exclaimed, her melodious voice was so loud that the entire castle shook several times before eventually coming to a stop!

Udea hurriedly got to her feet as she picked up the small pieces of broken fragments and place them onto a table.

The shattered fragments were connected to Ellard if the orb had shattered then... That means that he must have...

"No! Ellard you can't!"

She exclaimed, with teary eyes. Suddenly space distorted fiercely as a spatial rift opened before her.

"M-My lady! What's happening?!"

Many guards suddenly came running in after hearing her loud screamed accompanied by the shaking of the castle.

"I'll be back! Something urgent has come up, take care of things here while I'm away."

She said as she briskly walked into the rift which slowly closed behind her.
....
Inside another dimension a soul could be seen falling down what seemed to be an endless abyss, the bottom was too deep to see the end the soul tried fighting against the force of its descension but, it was fruitless as it continued to fall deeper and deeper into the abyss!

'Damn it! Am I really going to die?'

Ellard wondered as his soul fell helplessly into the abyss, a feeling of despair filled his non-existing heart!

The spell the goddess of death used was a powerful spell which sends the soul of the target into the bottom of hell itself impossible to escape from!

All he could do was curse as he fell deeper and deeper!

Suddenly a spatial rift opened subtly as a figure of a beautiful woman wearing a deep purple gown which hugged her body with long silky silver hair appeared gently hovering mid-air! Udea had used teleportation magic to enter the world of death.

Though her influence here was tremendously weak but, as soon as her amethysts like eyes caught sight of the helpless soul falling downwards her pupils lit up!

She quickly dived downwards pursuing Ellard's soul with her hands stretched outwards.

"Lady Udea! Why are you here? You must leave this place!"

Ellard yelled quite taken aback by the sudden development, he knew they were close but, he didn't think she would do something like this!

The goddess of death had absolute influence in this realm, coming here is no different from a small bunny wandering into the wolf's den!

Slowly the distance between them shortens bit by bit as Udea drew closer to Ellard soul, once she was at a close enough distance, she caught his soul gently in her hands and held it as though she was taking care of something truly precious.

Ellard's soul was weak if she takes him back to the physical world his soul would die immediately if he were not given a physical body as soon as possible but, the problem is creating a body in such short time was impossible even for her, after seeing the magic circle engraved onto his soul, she was certain that he was sent here by her older sister the goddess of death!

"You will suffer the worst possible death!"
Udea exclaimed.

The relationship between them was always at rock bottom but now she tried to take someone precious from her, Udea wasn't going to forgive her even if she died a thousand times over.

"Tch! I have no choice; I must use the secret art of reincarnation!"

Udea said to herself, if she allowed his soul to stay here, he would experience endless torment for eternity but taking him back to the physical world would also have a negative effect, as his soul would fade away before she could grant him another body,

Reincarnation is the only option she could think of but, the problem is once he reincarnates his soul will become pure and he will lose her divine protection as his soul would be too weak to withstand the pressure of divine power!

Ellard tried communicating with her but, it was no use his thoughts weren't getting through.

"Farewell Ellard I don't know when or where you will be reborn but, I will wait for you!"

Udea whispered gently as tears slid down her pale cheeks, her amethysts eyes glisten from the moisture at her eye corners.

She looked at the soul in her hands with great affection as her delicate hand trembled.

Before Ellard had time to process what she had just said his soul disappeared and faded away from her hands becoming particles of lights.
