Miss Most Perfect Beauty
Arriving in the Afterlife
“Will I kill you!”
Both of Xeon's eyes stared blankly accompanied by a powerful killing aura within her. The red threads came back out from his body, he snatched Aaron's body from the snake woman using his thread. As a result he managed to make the woman not to eat his sister, Xeon put Aaron's body a bit away from them.
The snake woman was speechless, she lost her voice after seeing the power of the red thread Xeon had. He inched backwards because he was unwilling to deal with Xeon further.
“A-are you a d-god?” nervous the snake woman.
“God? What the fuck? I am a human!” argue Xeon.
“Lying! The power of that red thread was the power of the god of destiny. If you're not a god, how do you have that power in you?” his reply.
“I don't know, I don't know anything about this power. All I know now is that I have to kill you because you killed my only brother!”
The half-snake woman had intended to escape from Xeon, but before she could escape Xeon had already caught her first. He wanted to fight Xeon, he couldn't do it because the red thread of Xeon limited his wiggle room. Xeon's red thread made her unable to wiggle any further. Just like he did to Aaron, Xeon replied to him as well by wrapped around the snake woman's body.
Over time the twists got tighter and stronger, for Xeon's final touch pierced the woman's heart using the sharp end of her thread. The snake woman had now died at Xeon's hands, the originally dangerous forest could now be entered by others.
With a staggering step, Xeon approached towards the body of the younger brother who was not far from his position. Xeon's body weakened because the snake woman could accidentally come out of her hand and slowly spread into her body. Before getting near Aaron's body, Xeon had already fallen to the ground. He tried to reach Aaron's body but he couldn't because his consciousness almost disappeared.
“Aaron...”.
It was the last time he mentioned Aaron's name until his life went with Aaron.
“Kak... sister...”.
Sayup-sayup Xeon heard Aaron's voice calling her, when she opened her eyes it turned out that Aaron had been in front of her. Xeon was shocked because she remembered that Aaron had died a moment ago. Xeon immediately sat down and held Aaron, hoping that this was not her dream.
“Aaron, are you alive? Are you really alive?”
Xeon squeezes Aaron's cheek and then shakes his body to see if his sister is really alive. Aaron felt dizzy and asked Xeon to stop shaking her body.
“So already, stop. My head is dizzy.”
“Sorry sorry.”
Xeon just realized that around her looked very different, around her there was a beautiful view and refreshing her eyes. He also saw that there were many people wearing white clothes around where he was standing.
“There where are we? Wasn't the last time we were in the woods?” xeon asked frozen in amazement.
“What is sister unconscious? We are dead, brother,” said Aaron.
The deg!
Aaron's response made him jump in shock, he gaped because he did not feel the slightest process to the afterlife. However, because Aaron said it, it is likely that it is true. Although he felt strange because he had died along with his sister finished fighting the snake woman earlier.
“So this is the afterlife?” ask Xeon to make sure.
“True, this is the afterlife.”
“Ehhh don't be afraid, I won't hurt you guys. I am here to bring you to meet the gods and goddesses,” Cyrill said with a sweet smile to make them not to be frightened and cry.
“God and goddess?”
“Yes, so come with me now.”
Xeon and Aaron follow from behind, along the way Cyrill tells a lot about the afterlife they are currently exploring. Cyrill takes them to the sky palace to immediately face the gods and goddesses who are already waiting for their arrival. Aaron was still scared, he was hiding behind Xeon's back.
Cyrill introduces the names of the gods and goddesses to them, and Cyrill persuades Aaron not to be afraid because they will not hurt him. Aaron dared himself to look at them one by one.
“You two are so cute,” praise Tavisha, goddess of venus.
“Yes, you guys are so cute,” said Agatha, the goddess of healing who also came to flatter them.
They looked anxious to see the two of them, Xeon did not like to be touched and always rejected the hand that tried to pinch her cheek.
“So, which one of them will be the god of destiny?” ask Carolus, god of war.
They each looked at Carolus, this matter of choosing a god of fate should not be leaked before Xeon and Aaron. They were brought here to be told later and not now.
“Ahh sorry, did I misspoke?” carolus said, immediately shutting his mouth.
“Ya already Cyrill take them to rest first, do not forget to give them a change of clothes and good food,” Tavisha said.
Cyrill obeys him, taking Xeon and Aaron to a very luxurious room. Xeon and Aaron were unceasingly staring at the luxuries in that sky palace, their eyes twinkling. Naturally, they used to live in a slum house and far from the word luxury.
“Kak, are we going to stay here?” aaron whispered asked.
“I don't know,” replied Xeon.
“From now on you two will stay here, so just use as much of the available items. Do not hesitate yes,” said Cyrill.
“But why were we brought here?” xeon asked in curiosity.
“Tomorrow you will know soon, now you sleep first so that tomorrow you can wake up early,” answered Cyrill embraced by them.
Xeon and Aaron change their clothes and eat the food that has been provided in the room. They both look very happy to be given nice rooms, nice clothes, and fancy food.
“Are we in heaven now?” ask Aaron.
“Entah, I don't know either. Tomorrow let's ask, now we sleep first,” said Xeon.
“Oke brother.”
Until the next day, they were both called to face the gods and goddesses. With a feeling of confusion, they just quietly waited for the gods and goddesses to speak. Xeon felt nervous for a moment, as did Aaron who also felt the nervousness of his brother.
“Live to the point only. Xeon, maybe you feel something strange about your strength right? You pulled some kind of red thread out of your body, do you know why you can pull that red thread out?”
