The possessed dog stood up again. The gaze shifted to the person who was beside him. He approached him and took his hand. So that he stayed away.

But the person threw Ansel’s hand and said. “Don’t Touch Me! You are dirty. Your body is haram because you just touched the dog.”

Ansel didn’t understand what he was thinking at all. Ansel just wanted to lead him to a safe place. But he actually berated Ansel.

The dog jumped towards the person. Because he was unable to withstand the dog’s attack, His body layed down. The dog’s bite was right on his shoulder.

Ansel approached him. He kicked the dog to let him go.

It seemed like the dog didn't want to let go of his bite. Ansel pierced the dog's eyes. The blood was dripping. The eyeball came out. This method did not work to get the dog away. Ansel stabbed it and kicked it. He did that many times until the dog was off guard and released his bite.

Ansel quickly dragged the dog away. “Seems like Fayfiend is quite strong. I have stabbed the dog’s body many times, but the dog can stand up straight.” He muttered.

The dog ran towards Ansel. This time, it wasn’t too fast. So he could see the dog’s movements. The dog aimed his feet. Ansel ran away and avoided it. But he could not. The dog jumped and bit his leg.

Ansel fell down. He could feel dog bite on his leg was so strong. Therefore, it was not easy to get Fayfiend out of the dog’s body, all he did was cut his head off.

Ansel stabbed the dog in the neck several times until the neck was cut off. His body felt very weak and he was lying down. But he had to endure because it wasn’t finished yet. He still had to fight Fayfiend who came out of the dog’s body.

Ansel tried to stand up. He smeared the knife he was holding with his blood. He had to wait for Fayfiend to approach him. There was no way he could approach Fayfiend with an injured leg.

Fayfiend’s movement was very fast. His movements could not be seen. Fayfiend was in front of him, strangling his neck and lifting his body. It made it difficult for Ansel to breathe. Even thought Ansel tried to fight. He stabbed Fayfiend’s hand which was strangling him. Then, Fayfiend slammed his body. Ansel felt his body completely crushed, when Fayfiend kicked his body.

His vision turned dark. He couldn’t see at all. “Is this the end for me? Hansel, Grandpa, Rhea, Heka, looks like I’ll follow you soon.”

Ansel opened his eyes. “Where am I?” He raised his hand and looked at him. He only saw a white light and found himself lying down. “Do I die?”

He sat down, “Is this an illusion?”. He looked around. He was in a vacuum, everything was white. “It turns out that I’m in the Lingwu Realm. How to get out of here? Will I be trapped forever here?”

Lingwu Realm was a place where the lost soul. It suited to humans, also immortals. Their souls would be trapped. It was hard to find a way out. But if it managed to get out, it seemed to be reborn.

Ansel stoods up. He walked aimlessly and hoped to find a way out. Although there was nothing he could see except the endless empty space, but he could hear a voice.

He heard someone calling him. Ansel stopped.

“Ansel… Ansel…”

“Who is that?” The voice sounded familiar to him. But Ansel didn’t know. No, he just couldn’t remember it. He realized that all his memories had been lost. There was nothing left, except for his own name.

He heard someone calling him, but his voice was different, “Ansel… Ansel…”

Ansel shouted, “Who are you?”

“Ansel… you killed me. Now I gonna to kill me?”

“Ansel, you deserve to die. It should be you, not me?”

“No, it’s not right. I never killed anyone.” He held his head and tried to remember something. While, the voice was constantly he heard.

“I don’t do it. I don’t kill anyone. No.. It’s not true.” Ansel denied. “Then, who am I? Who am I? Who? Aarrggghhhh…!!!”

His body was shaking. He saw his hand. Slowly, his hand faded. But he didn’t care. One thing he thought of, it was himself. “Who am I? Why can’t I remember anything?”

Tears came out of his eyes, he seemed to be wailing something he couldn’t understand at all. “Am I that bad?” He covered his ears, as he could not bear to hear all the voices. “Stop!!! Please stop…”

A knife appeared in front of him. He took it. “If you want me to die, fine I’ll do it.” He stabbed the knife into his stomach. He endured the pain as he pressed the knife until the stab was deeper Into his body.

Someone appeared and held his hand. He stopped Ansel who was hurting himself.

Ansel looked up and saw her. She was a beautiful woman. But Ansel didn’t know her at all.

 “Who are you?” Ansel asked.

But the woman just smiled. Then she disappeared.

It made Ansel feel confused. “What do you want from me? If my death can make you happy, why don’t you let me die?” Tears came out of his eyes.

“Get me out of here? Let me go… I beg you…”

***

After he left the Lingwu Realm, he realized that Fayfiend was trying to beat him off. His left hand holding the knife he pointed at Fayfiend’s leg. Fayfiend’s leg was cut off. The creature fell and stopped beating him.

Ansel tried to stand up. He dragged his body towards Sigil. He noticed the regeneration of Fayfiend’s legs. “The legs have grown.” He prepared to welcome the creature.

Fayfiend approached him. The creature strangled his neck again. At the same time the knife pierced Fayfiend’s body. He said Exorcist’s spells several times until Fayfiend vanished.

His body fell down. For a moment, he realized that something had changed at himself. What he felt was same as when he had froze his heart.

Ansel’s gaze fell on the person lying and the dog he killed. He stood up and walked towards them. Then he dragged them to Sigil.

Everyone inside came out. One by one said. “감사합니다.” (Kamsahabnida)

“Bring Me Salt Water, please…” said Ansel. He had to clean the body that had just possessed. So, that the body can no longer be used by other Immortals.

However, there was one person who berated him. “Hey, you can not do it. He is moslem. You can not draggle his body. You know dog is haram, don’t you?”

Ansel was annoyed with those words. He had sacrificed himself to save others. But he was the one who was abused. “Do you want to die?” Ansel said and pointed the knife to the person. Since the person did not answer, Ansel repeated it in a very high and emotional tone. “DO YOU WANT TO DIE!!!”

Some people defend Ansel. They blamed that person. Some even beat him.

Ansel doused the two bodies with salt water. Then, he cleaned it.

His body felt weak and limp. He didn’t feel the wound on his body. Maybe, it was because the night was cold and made the wound freeze.

He looked up at the sky full of stars. For a moment, he remembered what happened when he was in the Lingwu Realm. The woman who appeared in front of him was the Vengeance Spirit. She was the one who released him from Lingwu Realm.

He smiled. There were some things he didn’t understand. No matter how bad the mistake he had made, there was someone who came to save him when he was in danger.
