The New Man

The New Man
Set-off



All of the death angels in the Kingdom of Death were quite handsome men and had pure white skin, only the robes they wore seemed to remain terrifying.


The atmosphere around Rion resting was indeed very inhumane. A strange stench mixed with the rancid smell of blood was everywhere. If it wasn't for no choice, Rion


I don't want to be in an abnormal place. The pillow also felt very strange. The pillow she used was indeed made of human hair but strangely even so, the pillow was quite cushioned for Rion's head. Because of curiosity about the contents of the pillow he is now overrunning, Rion intends to see what is inside the pillow. Before Rion decided to open the contents in the pillow,he smelled the scent of the outer surface of the pillow first.Then Rion moved his hand to pick up the small knife that was in his pants pocket.When Rion tried to kill himself at about ten that night, while still having little awareness of dying, Rion still had time to put the small knife he used to kill himself into his pants pocket.


"I'm lucky I still got to put it in a bag of pants." Rion smiled happily.


Rion began to damage the pillow quickly using his small knife.How surprised Rion when he managed to find out what the contents of the inside of the pillow, just like the initial assumption on his head that it was not cotton. Human red lungs along with his liver which is also no less fresh red color turned out to have become the contents in the pillow. Rion shuddered in horror at the contents in the pillow in the Kingdom of Death room. Then Rion immediately sewed the rips in the pillow so that he was not caught damaging the pillow in the Kingdom of Death. Fortunately there happened to be a needle and thread in the room, a thread that was also made of human hair but, a little sturdier than the thread used to make the pillow.


'If it wasn't for the force, I wouldn't be here either. Fortunately now I'm not crazy just because I live here.' Inner Rion resigned in the heart.


Seen from any angle it is highly unreasonable for a human to be able to live in the Kingdom of Death, but Rion will still try to be strong for a while in the Kingdom of Death. Rion is very difficult to fall asleep with a foul scent around the room. Rion only really can sleep soundly when 01.00 in the morning. Just sleeping soundly for four hours was a thing to be grateful for for Rion but, because the arrival of a servant of the Royal Palace of Death who was assigned to deliver food for him instead woke him up. It really sucks to have to come so early this dark. Rion found out that it was now 04:00 at dawn because his watch was still working.


"Hey, I'm still sleepy. You better be patient and quiet. Just take care of your own problems." Rion shouted loudly in annoyance.


"Here you go, I just wanted to ask you.


What do you want to eat?" Ask the waiter.


"I just want to eat bananas, apples, and a good roast chicken." Said Rion spoiled while holding her stomach.


"Hahaha okay. Wait a minute." Said the waiter and left Rion.


"If you think about it again, life here isn't as bad as I thought. I think I could have survived a long time." Rion's face was smiling.


Beautiful shadow has been imagined in Rion's head.She imagined how it would look to be a woman. Is she going to be a beautiful woman? To be an extraordinarily beautiful woman or extraordinarily cute? Will her personality change if she becomes a woman?


So were some of the questions that Rion asked himself. Living life in the Kingdom of Death alone was very difficult for Rion especially later she became a teenage girl.Truly confused and dizzy head a hundred round, a hundred round, coupled with Rion's stomach that has not been filled will increase the distress of life only. Waiting for the waiter who did not come until now also adds to the day Rion became worse.


"For a long time my food came with the waiter. Huh." Rion complained lazily.


"Then I don't need to eat


just guys." Rion looked upset.


"Mr, mmmm.. Sorry if you waited too long." Said the waiter stuttering a little.


"It doesn't matter if you bring me all the food I want."


"Of course, sir."


"Wait, why do you call me mister? that sounds kind of weird 'cause you're not my servant." Rion just woke up.


"Because I was just told by the King of Death to call you 'lord'."


"All right then."


"Yes, sir, enjoy the food, sir." The waiter began to prepare to put Rion's food and drink on the table."


"Please eat sir! If sir had


finish eating, sir can come back


continue the rest." The angel of death offered with a friendly smile.


"Surely.Thank you very much,


the servant of the Kingdom of Death."


"Together sir." The waiter smiled kindly then left Rion alone.


Rion ate voraciously without leaving a single point of food on her used plate to eat. According to him, this food is as good as his mother's cooking, if the situation makes Rion so miss his mother and his home. But somehow he still could not get out of the entanglement of the Death Angels in the Kingdom of Death. Rion was still alive but, he did not feel that way at all, Rion thought he would continue forever trapped in the trap or labyrinth of the Kingdom of Death. Even so Rion was already very happy to be fed and drank by the Royal Maid of Death.


The time left to settle in the Kingdom of Death was still twenty-nine days away.Rion very much hoped that a positive thing could happen to him when he exchanged souls and spirits later.


'Oh yes, there is no water in this palace


clean for humans shower huh?'


'If only I could choose to


Without a word of pardon both of Rion's eyes slowly dropped tears. Tears that describe sadness, chaos, anxiety, confusion, and the inequality of his feelings now. Unwittingly by Rion apparently the assistant angel of Death was watching himself from outside, from behind the closed door of his room.


'I know it's not easy but, please fight like the groove.' The inner assistant angel of Death smiled then left behind the room door.


Day by day keep going. Until the day where the whole night was filled with cries from Rion in silence, before he went to sleep. Rion loved himself very much now and for him there was no need to exchange souls and spirits into any being be it human or any other.


Tonight's Rion's last night. Not feeling today was the last time towards the soul and spirit exchange process for Rion. Tomorrow were the days where Rion could begin the process of exchanging souls and spirits. The service provided by the Kingdom of Death during this time was really all good. Even the King of Death every day prepared clean water just for Rion to bathe and also drink. Because tomorrow morning Rion was about to start exchanging souls and spirits into a teenage girl, so she decided to approach the King of Death to ask some things that still stuck and made her confused.


"Excuse me, King of Death. May I


now ask the King of Death? "


"of course. Don't ever feel sorry for me." The Death King smiled amiably.


'It was so intoxicating a smile


warm belongs to the Inner Death King Rion in the heart.


'If I were a woman, I might


he will fall in love and make her a couple. Uh, what am I talking about?


Besides, if I start the exchange tomorrow to be a girl, can I like women? I am a woman when in fact I am a man? Hm.. It confuses me.' Monologue Rion again.


"So, you want to ask


what's that thing to me?" The Death King was confused


because Rion didn't ask.


"I.. I. It was when I exchanged souls and spirits


being a woman, is it okay to fall in love?" Rion was confused until he stuttered.


"Hahaha, of course I can. It's just your personal matter and business, so I don't have the right to rule your new life. Everything that happens later is your own responsibility."


"I understand. Can I go back to see my mother? Can I go back to my old house?"


"I'm not sure I'm answering that right now. But you need not fear, I will often be present in your dreams later to give you a hint."


"Then I'll go back to the room


to rest again. Thank you for your answer, King of Death." Rion.


"Alright.Congratulations


rest." The Death King smiled warmly.


After being allowed by the King of Death to go rest in his room, Rion just rushed to his room to go to sleep immediately.


Just laying down on the bed suddenly someone knocked on the door of his room. It really makes emotions but, after all, the door has to stay open. Rion opened the door and found the Death King smiling as usual while carrying a hooded black robe.


"Why is the King of Death here?" Rion frowned in confusion.


"I brought you a black robe


this hood is for you to wear."


"Okay, I accept this robe for


i wear. Thank you, King of Death." Rion slightly bent his body as a sign of his respect.


"Either. Remember, in the early hours of the earth time you will have to meet me so that I can tell you about many things, about the exchange of spirits and souls that begins tomorrow morning." the King of Death explained politely.


"Okay, king of Death."


After the king of Death left his message to Rion, he immediately left Rion to oversee the work of his people. The King of Death does not want to have lazy subordinates and is not right at work, therefore it needs to be monitored directly by himself at night.
