"Ugh... what happened?" Clutching his forehead, Yan Lou slowly sat up.
His eyes blurry, his head filled with pain.
With his groggy body and foggy vision, he turned around and looked at his surrounding.
Even though he could not clearly saw where he was, he roughly understood the situation. He was currently in a dense forest, likely far away from his house.
Shaking his head, he tried to clear his dizzy head. But all he got was more pain.
"Argh....." He groaned as he put both his hands on his head and tried to bear the pain.
As he sat there clutching his head, some unfamiliar yet familiar memories came rushing into his mind. That alone added more pain to his already hurting head.
Unable to bear the pain any longer, Yan Lou passed out and fell back to his original position.
By the he woke up again, it was already nighttime. Who knows what roams the dark forest at the night.
Instinctively, Yan Lou stood up on the spot. Because of that, he felt something rushed up to his head and felt a bit dizzy once again.
He quickly calmed it down and under the moonlight, he immediately rushed to a nearby tree and climbed on it.
Only after reaching the top of the tree did he felt a sense of relief.
Taking a deep breath he released all his fatigue and calmed down.
Then, he tried to remember everything that happened. Checking the memories he got before.
Closing his eyes, he started venturing deep into his mind.
After sometime, he opened his eyes. This time, instead of fear, his eyes were filled with hatred and anger.
Instinctively, he looked up and gritted his teeth until his gums started bleeding.
After experiencing the memories, he realized what was going on. What happened to him and who was he.
He was an earthling from 21st century. After fighting a brain tumor for his whole life, he passed away at the age of 22.
Then, he was reborn in this supernatural world filled with powerful beings with no memoriesof his previous life. The rulers being the Gods.
However, this world was flawed. There was heaven only, no hell.
Because of this, people with evil intentions run rampant. Devils lives in human forms.
With powerful people controlling the common people and doing everything they want and they can to satisfy their needs.
The current Yan Lou was also a victim of such acts committed by those people.
From the moment he was born, his fate was sealed. A slave, a miner, a rat. He was everything yet nothing.
But now, he realized his purpose. He recovered his memories.
He was a soul summoned by the tired will of the world to bring balance to the unbalanced world. And the reason why he was born as a commoner was the intention of the will of the world to let him experience the sufferings of those people.
Sitting at the top of the tree, Yan Lou summoned his gift. The most powerful gift from the tired will of the world.
A familiar sense.
"System." He called out.
[Yes, my Lord.]
A screen popped up in front of his eyes.
But, Yan Lou didn't have time to appreciate or happy about it.
Without delaying, he immediately instructed the system. "Personal panel.]
[Name: Yan Lou.
Position: God of Hell (weak).[Currently under the protection of the world's will. Concealing from the senses of the Gods.]
Destiny: Bring balance to the world.
Storage: Gift packs ×5.]
Looking at the simple yet complex screen, Yan Lou opened his gift packs.
"Open all of them."
[Yes.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully obtained the Hell.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully obtained the Hell Fire.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully obtained the Hell Ice.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully obtained 10 Nether Guards.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully obtained 10 Soul Reapers.]
Looking at the rewards, Yan Lou was somewhat satisfied. At the moment, he was weak, so, he needed guards and soldiers who could do those things in his tead.
When he saw the Hell Ice, he was confused. He heard of things like Hell Fire, but not Hell Ice.
After clicking on the information did he understood.
[Hell Ice: Coldest Ice that will bring sheep pain to people just by seeing it. Freezes the sin souls in one place.]
[Hell Fire: Burns the unwilling sinners for years.]
[Hell: A domain palace with everything needed for a functional hell.]
[Nether Guards: Powerful soldiers who patrols the vicinity of the hell.]
[Sould Reapers: Reapers who drags the unwilling sin souls to hell.]
For the last one, Yan Lou knew just from the name.
[Do you want to place the Hell? If yes, please choose a place.]
Now, his first task was to place the Hell domain to start his journey as the God of Hell.
Thinking of it, he called out the map of the world and looked for a suitable place.
Even though the hell was going to be in another dimension, he still needed a connection to the real world.
After looking for a while, he chose the most remote place, far from any beings.
As soon as he placed the hell, a message arrived.
[Congratulations, you have successfully placed the hell domain.]
[The first task.
Bring an unwilling sinner to the hell.
Reward: Demi-God Realm.]
Looking at the task, Yan Lou's eyes lit up. He was wandering how he was going to level up.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from his spot and appeared at the hell's gate.
Seeing the look of the hell, he was surprised. He thought the hell would be like a dark place with errie atmosphere, with fire all over the place.
But unlike what he thought, it turned out to be a place with clear sky, beautiful atmosphere and mesmerizing scenery.
If he was not the owner, he would have thought he was at the gate of heaven.
Taking a breath, he entered the gate. As he did that, he released the Nather Guards.
Out of thin air, 10 neatly dressed soldiers with terrifying armors appeared. Swiftly, they all knelt on the ground and saluted him.
In a union voice, the greeted. "My Lord."
He was satisfied with that. Waving his hand, he instructed them to go on with their duties.
After bowing, all the Nether Guards left.
Inside the palace, sitting on a black throne, he released the Soul Reapers and gave their first task.
Looking at the skeletons with clocks and dark scythes, he ordered. "Now, as your lord, I am releasing you to the mortal world. Now go and drag those sinners to the Hell..."
As soon as he finished, without delaying any moment, all the Soul Reapers ran out of the palace.
When the reached the gate, all of them disappeared one by one.
