Diana looks at James who was commissioned to kill her along with the witches to facilitate her death " The hell ? " Hecati appears and sees someone elegant which somehow calms her down " My name is Hecati "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAeLUGocBsb6
" yeah and I am Diana pleasure to meet you " " You are taking this quite well " " Hell no I ain't , I have no idea what happened first I was beside some golden gates and now I'm back here I don't even know why that guy killed me "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA0u3nSWBvne
" Well I did what I'm supposed to do I'll be telling Boss " " Is this boss Karma ? " " Yes he told us to welcome " " Yeah killing me and resurrecting me what a warm welcome " Diana said with a lot of anger as Hecati let her complain about Karma .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAxMewAFUjvm
After a short while " May I say my side of the story ? " Diana looked at Hecati and nodded " Yeah sorry I had to let that out " " It is only normal to act based on your situation , Your cousin Karma told us to kill you but we were to bring you back "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAaFAhKHNgyY
" Wait so is this some kind of you sacrifice my soul to the devil ? " " Oh no we stopped doing that centuries ago , What we did to you may be called necromancy but also ressurection , your cousin wanted to do it for the benefits of what death does to a human "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA3LxPWRrdR6
Diana was confused by what Hecati said " I don't get it " " Death is what helps someone unlock the power of their soul with that they can do plenty of things " Hecati conjures an image giving Diana a little shock .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAxOzFGhE1q7
" See these are sinners they have powers that correspond to their life , our ancient ancestors could make powerful weapons but that's all they can ever do soon we have criminals being able to be invisible , Murderers creating sophisticated structures like controlling other sinners using their past life experiences like in programming "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAoMAcixdL71
Hecati's illusion demonstrates what she has said " So does that mean ? " " Yes as long with your knowledge of a medicine you can construct something but take caution when you are making it , you would be a chemistry lab rather than god you wouldn't be creating something out of nothing "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAUPLa2jjOMD
" So dying just gives me more powers ? " " It depends on the life you lived if you were strong enough to hold or control your emotions you would be able to however any power you can wield is highly dependent on your knowledge "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAFppV4sAH6O
" So that's why he sent me here " Hecati nods and Diana ask " Uhm I'm sorry for this awkwardness I haven't talked to many people " " It's okay " " So that whole thing about internship ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAy2auImc854
" You can study with the witches we are communicating with the fae " " Fae ? " " Yes they are children of a great pagan god they were the ones who helped us remake our witchcraft " " What do they look like ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAiTwKlk0y6h
" You can describe them as the unwilling receiver of love and worship to some certain humans who are pleased to see their animal and humanoid appearance "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAGo0E4ZRoUV
" Oh my god , that's what they look like ? " " Yes however you have to understand that they look like that because they like to eat their body parts "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAg4VfCyWO0U
Whatever innocent-looking image Diana had conjured was completely destroyed as soon as she learned that they cannibalize their own body " Why ? " she said with worry and confusion " They didn't need to eat breathing was enough for them , food was just a form of comfort "

Karma receives a call " It's done " Karma smiles " Oh I'll call you back later " " Boss we need more supercomputers " " Sure you are producing more results " " Thanks but uhm about that blood sample you had us extract "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAIlaSxZawtY
" Yeah it's amazing isn't it " Risana nodded " It is but because it's your blood can we really make any use of it " " That's too bad I was hoping we could make use of it some way " Risana continued to do her work after she handed the report which didn't give Karma enough results at all .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA2niBfFzQRl
' But now that I think about it ' Karma searches his memories looking for the one ' Here it is ' Karma takes out some notes and walks to Risana " Here " Risana looked at the notes " What's this ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAHjs6vbUX65
" Some notes on my blood and its ability I'll have more blood sent to this location too I hope you look into it " " Got it boss " Risana was excited to learn something like this as Karma observed her excitement reminding him of a movie .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAEQ2P6yZ4iV
' The Menu , that movie was good for demonstrating how nice it was for things to be simple ' Karma looked at James who looked tired " Boss I really don't want to get more information in my head it hurts "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA4PPosI8fwm
" Don't worry Risana made improvements to make the input adjusted to your capabilities , if you still have a headache she could give the information organizer a first proper use "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAFGeiDU0I4N
" What do you mean by information organizer ? " " It's powered by a supercomputer to help you remember organize your memories by the way I already sent the money to your bank account "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAgc5d6rP8lc
Karma leaves with a portal , James was already used to witches so he doesn't care much that Karma is using a cube to open a portal " Hmm I'll get some quick snacks " he returns to the library throws his trash away and meets with Isir .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA06WVWKXKAe
" So how was the Library " " It was good " Isir said and Sally kept looking outside while Karma smiled to see what she was doing " So find the university relaxing ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAmcO8JWHow1
" Yeah " " How about we get out for now I can have Isir drop you off at my personal house at the South Pole all accommodations will be there "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAh5qs32vTg2
" And what's good is that no one will be able to know you were there " Isir added making Karma wonder how far their information distortion can reach from their body " Okay I'll go then " Sally said accepting the offer .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAxRR3uUosQ8
" And I'll go do some shopping " " I'll just stay " " Alright " Karma leaves the university as he walks through the city wondering what he should get ' It's hard to think of a gift for Mihr it's probably disrespectful to give him something made by demons '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAWwR9iD8Kdy
Karma looks around using his eyes to see merit ' It's a little hard to get an object that has influenced so many people and all I can say is that I regret thinking of planning to get a gift now I feel bad '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAZyqEwjLXqy
He wonders about his plan of crucifixion and stares at a pot in a super old kitchen ' Oh it's the millenia soup ' he sees some merit in the soup and is surprised to see that as he goes in to buy some .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAIfohoAwsnA
' Weird it seems that soup has some merit in it or rather ' He looks around the restaurant to see a lot of their tools with some level of merit but the brightest one has a wooden ladle ' I heard there is some wood that can make the food tastier that must be one of them '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAhWAYoLjyk3
He looks at the bowl in front of him as he drinks the soup enjoying the taste ' It's so tasty but the most important thing that I have in mind is the fact about how merit is present , this shop has a long history each utensil was used to feed and satisfy people's hunger and desire for food but the most important thing is '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAN8Jp96ZgLI
He stares at the hand-drawn framed recipe that mostly includes some spices but the most important part is the soup that was reused ' I got my gift I'll be sure it gets to Mihr to be heated hopefully this soup is hot enough later ' " Thanks I'll get these " Karma was about to store it away until he sighed .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA66kBbMo4PK
' Better not ' he held the soup with him and wondered what else he should get ' Hmm maybe some good bread ' Karma joked as he carried the soup container and got some bread ' It's a little humble I should look for a picnic basket '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAXs91VIU25F
He buys a basket to put the bread and the soup container happily goes to the university and leaves with Isir they arrive at the cabin " Alright now I just have to invite Mihr here " Mihr arrives and he looks surprised at Isir in a female appearance .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA5vkMwDkuH0
" Did you tell them ? " " Yes I did Mihr " " Oh I didn't think you would but is this okay ? " " Do not worry Isir is my trustworthy hacker who can do a lot " " I see so what do you need me to come here for ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA0DdvxmkhNV
" I just wanted to invite you for dinner I bought some soup and bread " Isir looks at the angel who shows gratitude " Ahh then thank you for inviting me " Mihr takes a seat inside as Karma unpacks the food .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAjy6OfXLlec
" So how was heaven ? Other than the fact that it is paradise ? " " Oh well you see there have been a lot of souls who were redeemed by Metatron himself "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAu7LZKDCKpm
' Ahh I remember ' Isir thought " There was even Metatron planning to Welcome Leviathan however guardian angels like me have to watch over our respective protectees "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAw7T3SqoyDs
' Do I have one ' " but this one I don't think they have one " " Oh that's because Isir is dead " Mihr was surprised and looked at Isir from head to toe .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA9OJPPMQtZW
" She is ? " " Yes after I told them about heaven and hell we went through a few things and they killed themselves willingly to get the power of human spirit "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAXbbrAa4580
" I understand that humans do unlock their full potential when they die but weren't you afraid ? " Mihr said worried as Karma scooped with a ladle for the soup " I wouldn't be if I knew where I was going "
62Please respect copyright.PENANACKBrZK6trr
Isir replied as Mihr sighed " You are really brave " " By the way is there anything among the guardian angels that occured ? " Isir asked trying to confirm whether someone knew of them .
62Please respect copyright.PENANANxC0qUYaKQ
" Oh nothing big really happened to the guardian angels we would only react if there was a mass number of deaths so we would be assigned to another human "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAvXQgCOQvdF
" Then what about before was there an angel who couldn't find their protectee ? " " Hmm I think there was but I can't remember who " ' That's good enough ' " By the way Mihr are you okay with eating beef stew ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA7wLasAB8iL
" Oh of course why ? " " Well I just assumed you wouldn't eat meat because it comes from an animal " " No it's fine " " It is ? I thought angels would all be vegan or something " " That is true but it's not like we tell one to not eat certain food "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAxb6rVP8BIX
" Reason is ? " " Because there can't be life without the death of another " " Sounds profound " " Yes it is we do not live on a planet where we can have sustenance without killing a life , Honey , milk , water , vegetables , fruits " " But aren't plants alive ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANABYm0qEf1Py
" Boss I think Mihr meant to say that you can eat the apple but just not the seeds " " Yes after all the pulp of the apple is like an eggshell you wouldn't be killing a life " " But the egg needs that eggshell to live "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAJ71SS3TlDK
" Yes there was that problem when Abel came to heaven he was worried because he was a shepherd unlike his brother who was a farmer , But god said that even if they are in heaven they can still eat the flesh of another life even if that life wasn't a plant "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA0VCS1Rb2Fy
Isir thinks about the relationship between Cain and Abel " Hey Mihr if it was Cain who was the one favored by god and Abel killed him what would Abel's curse have been ? Cain's curse was related to his profession as a farmer "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA9nhJHrGup9
" Oh that was an interesting topic the guardian angels " " So fanfiction " Karma asked while Mihr nodded to his theory " Yes it was the form of entertainment we guardians angels have when needed of course we are still able to respond to our Protectees call for help "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAT0oe7wunw8
" Then how did the story of Abel being the first murderer go ? " Isir asked curious about the context as Mihr started " So we first delved into how Cain got his curse which was when Abel was favored more "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAdxF0OCBuPQ
Karma was thinking about it too ' If that's the case then that would be strange , wouldn't it ? If both worked to make food for themselves then all their punishments in the original and the fan-made would end up with either of them losing the results of the hard work '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAgkJ9Jfls9n
" So the only reason Cain murdered Abel was because he was jealous that he wasn't favored even though Abel offered an animal as a sacrifice while Cain offered crops Abel's offering was much better because unlike Cain's offering Abel's was carefully chosen while Cain was just "some" crops rather than the best crops that's why Abel's was more favored "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAiQbdUwzMEV
" Oh so you switch their intentions and now it's Cain who offered the best crops while Abel's offering was like an old sheep he was gonna turn to food anyways ? " " Yes that's the idea to make the version have Cain's crop offering much more carefully picked while Abel's was just a low-effort offering "
62Please respect copyright.PENANARIP1h31y4m
" Interesting " " The part where Cain kills Abel will have to be swapped obviously but the intention is still clear and the curse is where angels start to think of different " " Oh so is it like he can't be a shepherd because animals run away from him ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAEYljrUyDQe
" That's one of them some even said that any animals he tries to raise as livestock will be sick quickly or there will be plenty of predators that would come attack Abel's flock " " That's interesting " Isir said as Mihr looked at Karma paying attention .
62Please respect copyright.PENANADlLO2o8Rwh
" What's most interesting here is you " Karma looked at Mihr and pointed to himself " Me ? " " Yes it was strange for a lot of angels when they learned that you had committed sins even though you did it to the evil you never seem to have your merit tainted "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAdJKTmmA0oE
" I don't understand what you mean by that ? " Mihr fixed his position and calmly said " Then let me explain , If you help a murderer because you felt sorry for them you wouldn't taint in some way your sins because you didn't treat the murderer as a murderer but as a victim so it would be a merit , The same way also applies when you kill a murderer to save a victim thus tainting your merits but if you simply kill them for your enjoyment without regard for the victims they have claimed it counts solely as a sin because you kill just to kill not for justice "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAiynCHoaSzo
Karma was becoming more curious as Isir knew what it means ' Then does all those things I did in the underworld count as tainted sins because I used ill-gotten gains to benefit the world '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAH1dVOSMYIt
" I heard from some guardian angels who were happy for their protectees one time because they got the money that was lost after godfather exited the underground " Mihr said .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAN5o0xw9Eyd
" So even if boss got Godfather's network he never would get his merits tainted " " Ehh he did get them wouldn't that count as an ill-gotten gain "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAb4oD4B70fZ
" Oh I see " Karma sighed as he revealed his sins to Mihr , Mihr was surprised at how black it was and how they were forming cracks instead of tainting them the same way gold cracks form on his sins .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAjUQ7a1BWVN
" How is this possible " " I don't know I wouldn't say I'm proud of it but I also wouldn't say I am not proud of it either " " This would mean you wouldn't go to heaven and I was waiting for you to come here for so long "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAc8UwVix8fv
Mihr said with much sadness " It doesn't matter where I go is where I can and want to go " " I see I would be interested to be in your company for a long time though " Karma smiles being reminded of Sally's situation .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAR05zZ56Cfn
" Then wouldn't I be bothered all day ? just like Sally ? " " I don't think you will , Even the founder of your family doesn't have such experiences " Karma wanted to ask why " It was likely because everyone already knew about the Count family unlike Behemoth a lot of people have yet to know them at all "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAn1V2nbQC0U
" I see that makes heaven more accommodating too bad I will go to hell " " Don't say that even if they account for all your sins you can remain a human soul untainted by an angel or demon vestige "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA0IFIH8mmHD
Karma was curious why Mihr said taint " Why would being an angel taint a human soul ? " " Because humans are made in god's image and likeness if you were to turn into an angel a servant for humanity that would be lowering your status or your status as a creation of god "
62Please respect copyright.PENANArYT2pG8uWQ
' How disappointing no wonder Lucifer said that ' " But I enjoy watching you even though I could never fulfill my duties as a guardian angel I hope you'll live a long life so I could continue watching you " Karma was surprised how Mihr had so much humility .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAovk4uOCyNa
" Well I guess it must be nice to watch a giant light appearing here and there in the globe " Mihr tilted his head as if a question mark would appear should someone visualize him " What are you talking about ? "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAySRB10XD5a
Karma was confused at Mihr's confusion " I mean I do use Lilith's authority right and use it to go from one place to another as well as go to hell " " Ahh that makes sense no wonder I could see the world much more clearly "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAztvsGxhL7e
" Hey Mihr what does that mean ? " Oh do you never notice it ? I thought you would've known now that you can see merit " " Wait what do you see exactly ? " " Streams of merit flowing into you "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAacX4ij1NFI
Karma looks at his hands and around him as he reaches his back to see the streams of line " What does this mean ? " " Gratitude of course , even though all the acts you did felt like charity to you , to those who benefited from it your charity was more than that it felt like salvation to them thus their gratitude "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAxwOW88eFsf
" I see then those that mean there are also dark streams of sins " " I think they would be called hatred " " So those things about red strings of love have a similar meaning to these ? " " Yes you could say that however , I am very surprised "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAm2V0EDvC7q
" Why ? " " Have you heard of the movie Menu ? " " Oh yeah I was thinking of that today it said about a story of a chef who grew tired of cooking because it was too complicated "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA07KyO7QkYX
" That's right and in this world where someone's life and dreams is constantly challenged you were able to create an environment where everyone can desire and dream without looking back "
62Please respect copyright.PENANABQ7Jb8qTmL
" Oh yeah I did make sure everyone was doing what they want " ' I mean I did dump the work of manufacturing my blood to Jane after offering her funding for her projects however the standards I had wouldn't be handled by anyone other than Jane '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAuYVXtQGRAd
" But I don't get why you reference the Menu ? " " It's just part of why they are grateful for you , because you created a place for them to be able to work without worry , just like the chef in the movie his joy in cooking was drained because he had a lot of critics "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAwEUXqulNha
" Oh I see can you explain more " Karma asked as Mihr smiled and continued the context " Since you were able to create a school that is excellent with teachers students are given choices that are all equal that there are no terrible teachers and the choice of subjects was for them to choose "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAs41kBsC9sh
Karma nods as Mihr kept explaining " You made food accessible to everyone and the economy improves you were able to feed everyone through several laws so even if some people were grateful they could eat all those gratitude goes to you for making it possible "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAYc4eisCl3t
" But what about god ? " " Of course , god gets some gratitude he created the world while you molded it " Karma nods at it " That's a lot of gratitude but how is that relevant " " It is plenty relevant if you think about your strength as your body then Gratitude are your weapons "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA97WNkZUxdg
' Well , reputation is technically a weapon in a way ' " That makes sense " " Yes however the hatred on the other hand invites disaster " " Yeah like when godfather sent Cain to spy too bad he lost and was sent to an asylum as a mentally ill " Isir said as Mihr couldn't believe it .
62Please respect copyright.PENANABGVpd4wMin
" At least he hasn't been killed yet " Isir was now curious " Why ? " " It's mostly for his sake the godfather is a great sinner if you kill him he would naturally be sent to the bottom of hell and be tortured "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAQiAUuftIwd
Karma felt like he had to say this and said " Mihr are you aware that Godfather was already in contact with demons for a long time ? " " Eh he is ? " " Yes believe it or not Lilith apparently slept with him one night and then she favored him but I'm not exactly sure about the details of it "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAay1SMYS24l
" But it seems like she didn't help if he was arrested " " Yeah apparently Lilith started hating him because he wasn't treating her like he used to so I guess it came to my advantage "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAYr7CxfwHxv
" That makes sense some angels investigated him and learned he has made deals with demons but the contracts he made slowed down as of today he hasn't made one in a year "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAZVPHklHJKn
Isir and Karma assume it must be because Lilith was overseeing it thus the decrease " But I heard you have Lilith's authority " Mihr said out of his own curiosity as Karma was delighted to hear his innocent curiosity .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAuQMgRMxDTp
" Don't worry too much about it she owed me a favor and it was a big one " " Karma " Mihr said as he continued with the attention of two humans " You sound like the devil when you said she owed you a big favor "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAGHSia7KZqo
" Right ? That's what I think " " Oi Isir don't invite Mihr to your club this early " " Come on boss you do sound more like the devil though " " You make it seem like Lucifer is less malicious " Mihr said laughing at their interactions despite one being a boss and the other a subordinate .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA5FgjPaQIev
" Of course he is weren't there several times where the devil was depicted by Azazel , Beelzebub and sometimes a completely different name ? " " That is true however I wouldn't say that Lucifer isn't that weak , Even if he doesn't appear much he is still the strongest angel like Metatron "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAZdNGMn39hX
" Do Elaborate " Karma says " You have all heard that it was Lucifer to have first fallen right ? " Karma and Isir nod as Mihr said " If Lucifer hasn't fallen then he would easily rival Metatron who was depicted as the lesser god "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA1cvMuHnXsl
" He was supposed to be God's greatest angel " Isir added " That too Lucifer could even be in the same position as Metatron used to be but because he was so close he eventually spread the doubt that humans were flawed and he proved it when Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit and without his interference , Cain killed Abel causing even more angels to fall "
62Please respect copyright.PENANAHG6kyZ9umT
' Oh so that's why angels fall they didn't just criticize God's creation , they completely lost faith in god himself ' Karma thinks about Sally and smirks .
62Please respect copyright.PENANA0jWdcMe0oP
" But of course , I believe that humans were god's creation despite all their flaws it caused humans to think of solutions to cover them , it's like kintsugi "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA4FH4dI3VvO
" Isn't that a form of philosophy to embrace imperfections " Isir asked " Yes I suppose you could apply that since humans are made from the dirt of the ground " Isir laughed at the comparison as if it was a form of a joke in a sense .
62Please respect copyright.PENANAVyn92Mb3u6
Karma wonders though as he stares at Mihr and sees something that was changing his faith ' I see that much should be given if we considered the fact that I was doing a lot for the world even though it was selfish the act of charity wasn't to sacrifice , be selfless or generous but to create a sustainable solution '
62Please respect copyright.PENANA3XNfiyZXyd
" Mihr , About Lucifer , was his position succeeded by Metatron ? " " Yes you could say that in a way however, it was much harder with humans " " I see that would make sense " Karma said while thinking ' I wonder if there was anything between these two '
62Please respect copyright.PENANAdmrHADKNWP
" Mihr is it okay for an angel to descend to earth ? " " For a guardian angel like me I only have to cover a little of my presence there will be no problem if I do stay "
62Please respect copyright.PENANA8rzEjEErvU
" Then how about you rest for the night in here ? " " Oh thank you for the offer "
