Vol 1 Chapter 1: The Unique Lost Soul



Meanwhile, in a place far far away...

There can be seen a woman, who's sipping tea while gazing into the unknown

That woman happened to be the goddess of this world, the new world

As depicted like in any other series, surely you can imagine how a goddess would look like, right?

For now, all I can say is that she, was known to be as the "Origin"

The goddess' name was...

...

"Divina sama, may I have permission to speak with you right now?"

"You always have the permission to speak with me, Tenma"

The young goddess who asked for permission was none other than Tenma, the Goddess of Justice

"It is nothing too serious, but I noticed just now that another lost soul was transported to this world"

It wasn't surprising that Tenma would notice a lost soul since a Transport Procedure is a transparent process, meaning that all deities and divine beings have knowledge on when a lost soul is being transported to this world

"Yes. Another one just got transported indeed, but shouldn't you be accustomed to it by now?"

"I am...but it's been a while since we had another lost soul"

"Indeed it has been a while"

Since lost souls are not common, It sometimes surprises the other deities and divine beings. Tenma, the Goddess of Justice included

"Forgive me if I may come off as rude, but should we still be accommodating these lost souls?"

"Hm?"

"Divina sama, those other lost souls that you also transported in this world are-"

"I know, I am aware. That's why that new soul is essential"

"Essential...?"

Tenma, confused on the thought, simply stared at Divina, who took another sip from her tea

"Tenma, do you remember about our findings about the lost souls?"

"Yes. According to our findings, lost souls came from dead living beings from many unknown sources. Souls that once had physical bodies, but not anymore, and now are residing in their spiritual bodies. It also says in our findings that not all souls can become lost souls, once a living thing is dead, there is a percentage that, that living thing can become a lost soul, a lost soul that can reside in the void for long periods of time"

"Indeed, but what's interesting is the next findings about the lost soul"

"The next findings..."

Tenma tried to recall the other findings about the lost souls, which eventually struck into her mind

"The lost souls' aura?"

"Yes. Lost Souls often emits aura depending on how they lived their past lives. The most aura we have gotten are yellow"

"Which is the souls who had never done anything illegal in their past lives"

"Sometimes, we get a blue aura"

"Which is the souls who had lots of regrets..."

"And the least, red auras"

"Which is the souls who had done many illegal things..."

In the early documentations of the lost souls, not even Divina nor her deities and diving beings can identify the meaning of the auras behind the lost souls. Hence why they got a free pass as well as got their blessings and gifts. They only got to know the meaning behind them through trial and error and observation from those particular lost souls

"I had failed at assessing the true nature of those lost souls since I lack the knowledge at the past, but this time, I am certain on my assessment. This time, I can guarantee that I didn't fail"

Tenma widened her eyes as she heard a clear confidence in Divina's decision

"If I may ask, what was the lost soul's aura this time?"

"That's the most interesting part..."

"...?"

Divina took another sip from her tea, slowly this time. Then she made direct eye contact with Tenma

"That lost soul's aura...was white"

"?!"

As if she got shocked by lightning, Tenma stand froze for a few seconds to fully understand what Divina had just said

"That can't be...there was never a white aura stated in the lost souls documentation..."

"The documentation isn't final, it was never final, we are still updating it as we find more evidences. Am I wrong?"

"No, but..."

Tenma wanted to point out something, but she knew that the Goddess of Origin couldn't be wrong for something like that

"Since it was white aura...how could we ever know its past life?"

"There's no need to, I've already assessed it. I'm certain this time that I'm right"

"But Divina sama, you said it yourself that not every time your assessment are always right!"

"I know, but seeing that lost soul, I knew I had to do it"

"You had to do it...?"

"I altered the Transfer Procedure and put that lost soul into Celestial Mode"

"?!"

Seemingly in a state of panic, Tenma quickly explained to Divina about the consequences that it could bring

"Divina sama! You know you can't do that! A Transfer Procedure can't exceed the lost souls' power to more than divine beings! Altering it into Celestial Mode means that-"

"I know"

"-?!"

As if to assure Tenma, a yellow mist suddenly envelops the whole place

"Y...Yellow mist...you mean...?"

"Yes. I'm telling you, I am confident in this"

"..."

After a few seconds, Tenma took a deep breath, and quickly regained her posture

"Since Divina sama says so, then I have no more further questions"

Divina nods as if to say thanks to the understanding Tenma

"I really do hope that this new lost soul is the one that you've been looking for, Divina sama"

Tenma then bowed to Divina and left the scene

"..."

The yellow mist quickly turned back to white

"Rui...Rui Hanzawa..."

...

"I'm counting on you"

Divina said, as she quietly sipped her tea...
