Chapter 14: Find Him

"Now that you know what everything means, let me answer your original question: I got bored of it all. Reaping souls day in and day out, never doing anything different or exciting. Then I met a few...people, and decided to quit. I then took up many projects involving life after death, of which are very interesting. Would you like to join?

"Pity. Well, think about it this way: If I succeed, then no one ever needs to die again. Grim Reapers will cease to have meaning and return to being humans. Demons will be able to eat their fill without disrupting the number of souls available for them to eat. People will simply live on after they have died. Loved ones need not to pass away. Doesn't that sound like the most noble goal of all?

"Ah, if you're that hell-bent (giggle) on it, then there's nothing I can do to stop you. When you get the chance, mention my name to any Grim Reaper and they'll take you in. But beware, for reaping souls is not a job you can do and escape unscathed."

Every light has its dark, and for every soul that I take, I give a part of myself to the deceased. 'And never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.' And if I can become a Grim Reaper, I can save as many people as possible while you finish your research.

"Wise words coming from a little angel who can't even remember her name. Well, if you're still interested in my offer, stop by my shop again anytime~"
