Chapter 01: Retirement
"Sinner Wu Cai, you have committed various crimes when you were alive. Committing arson, fraud and murder that disrupted the lives of humans. Now that you are dead, a severe punishment will atone to you. You will serve the underworld for a hundred of years to lift up your sins and will lose the chance to reincarnate as a human again."
A man wearing a pure black long robe and a wide hat that almost covers his face, only revealing the perfect angle of his jaw. He is standing straight and solemn with a mysterious and sharp temperament around him. On his hand is a long sword with golden runes surrounding the handle, creating a majestic aura. Just like how the sword reveals its sharpness and ruthlessness at this moment, the man is clearly the same with the sword making the two look as one.
In front of him is a middle-aged man looking extremely sorry. Its face is pale, hair unkept and has a long beard. He has a sinister face and clearly looks very evil. However, when he heard the words uttered by the man, his face turned even paler and his knees trembled as he kneels on the ground.
"N-No! I-I regret what I've done! I don't want to go to hell! I don't want to suffer!" The middle-aged man looked very terrified but the man didn't change his expression.
Before Wu Cai could plead, the man finally moved. Holding his sword, he pointed the tip on Wu Cai and coldly whispered mysterious words. In the next second, a magic circle appeared under the middle-aged man. That golden magic circle lit up and a black chain began entangling Wu Cai.
Feeling the burning sensation like a fire from the chain that's wrapping him, Wu Cai begins screaming in extreme agony and pain.
"N-No! N-No— Aaahhhh!!!" Wu Cai screamed from the top of his lungs as he felt his body getting burned. The mysterious man still had a cold expression as he watched the man gradually disappear in front of him. The magic circle also fades and silence engulfed the whole place.
Seeing that his work is done, the man with the black long robe and wide hat turns his back and starts walking away. The long sword in his hand disappeared and a long sheath appeared on his back. He walks without a sound and disappears with the wind, leaving the dirty place with a cold body on the floor.
