Karma finished making everyone as they were all happy with their names " Okay then now for Dream well " " I'm fine with my name " " I was thinking of Sandman but that doesn't work " " AHH fine it's not like I hate my current name " Dream flutters away as a butterfly finally giving Karma enough time to talk to Isir .

"Should I pull back the application ?" "No need from what I heard there is something like processing time for the reapers which might be long considering their jobs of dealing with several deaths increasing per second"
573Please respect copyright.PENANAQu6PFeUJCx
"They already accelerated the application" ... "Well it is Cain who even the reapers are afraid of" "I can just say they exceeded our expectations because he had plans during their processing time"
573Please respect copyright.PENANAsubeNZA3jb
" That works " Karma heard the doorbell as all the promise keepers hid " Okay here " Karma pushed the scales to Cain " What ? " " You are attacking Rochester now " Karma uses the vial to create a portal and sends messages to Lulu "I got your equipment send me a location"
573Please respect copyright.PENANAAPJPBvA4rp
Karma got an instant reply and sent a message "If you can can you please send the man I'm sending to you to this location" "Where'd you get this location ?" "I've got connections" ' Rochester was a fool , thinking I wanted to live longer for the secret projects I've been doing '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAX1BdirzKsi
Karma praised Rochester for researching enough about him ' If only I wasn't special he could've gotten me but I shouldn't be dealing with people trying to mess up the natural order of things . It's like dealing with the devil using my soul '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAhRACqGsuvN
Cain looks at the portal wondering why there's a rabbit with a tail that doesn't fit their image " Here Cain can you take these through " " Cain ? " ' That biblical Cain ? ' Lulu reminded herself not to touch him in anyway .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAzlatGHtHit
" Are these supposed to be the equipment ? " Karma nodded " Packed nicely in a box I had a lot of people work on it and made sure I got everything in so any updates on the shampoo ? " " No we don't need that kind of thing hot water is enough for us so I found other people you might want to invest in "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAiM4wD2LueM
" Oh let me hear it " Karma said interested " It's the garden they breed all sorts of plants in to make even better food I'm cooperating with them by giving them tiny dust particles from crafting jewelry for fertilizer " " Hmm , so what kind of problem are they encountering for them to have to require an investment ? "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAIOxkpbamEp
" You already thought that far ? " " I am the Count " " It's mostly trying to speed up the process of nutrients after all nobody has very fast decomposers " " Oh I have some but I have to go there for it "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAdAdRNE45v7
" What how do you have decomposers with you ? " " Oh it's some much natural demons that appear in hell " " What kind ? " " I call them infernals for short it's unofficial though they are just called natural demons probably for the sake of reminding the fallen angel demons that they just fell out of grace or something "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAsofcLqe9EO
Lulu thinks about what it may look like using popular media " Do they look more animalistic ? " " Kinda but they could be smarter " " Oh I heard it from the news in hell the other day they were attacked by a giant demon I don't know a thing about it though "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAf5ZPUYMMKO
" Is that so , hmm if you are making jewelry out of magic ores do you think you can cooperate with another start-up that's doing the same ? " " Ehh there are start-ups like this ? "
573Please respect copyright.PENANArFFHeeVa7P
" Yep turns out this demon did it not because of reasons similar to yours but to make the purchased land much more expensive but don't have a way to turn it into something useful because they can't make use of any sins "
573Please respect copyright.PENANANinbtFmBRr
" Sins should be some power that the demons have right ? " " Yep similar to how you use magic for yourself " " It is possible but the nature of sins is completely different I usually use the term miasma because they usually do bad things "
573Please respect copyright.PENANACwqHkCWGUl
Lulu does think about cooperation " If you have any intention to I'll connect you two after all you both are of different species " " Yeah yeah I guess I should expand my horizons now that I don't have to do every single thing on my own "
573Please respect copyright.PENANANTGGA3Al2Y
" Yeah so how about giving me the location of this garden you speak of ? " " Sure here they have an address you can search it up or look at a map for it " Lulu hands him a card that shows the address " Good one last business deal before I clock out "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAK8ciDCIrc0
Karma navigates leaving Lulu to give Cain directions and some contacts to help him arrrest Rochester as Karma looks at the amazing garden " Oh even from this far I can tell it's good it might make for a good resort " he looks at the big sign that shows the name of the company as he wonders how Lulu showed the card off .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAQetzYPskow
" Hello ? " the workers turned to the strange human who visited them as Karma said " I'm here to look for " Karma reads the owner's name " Croton " " Oh uhm our boss is in that hut " Karma looked at the hut . "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAx9GLMZtb7F
" But do you have an appointment " ' Right I should show that I am here for business ' Karma shows a green card " Oh you do then just knock on the door " ' These cards are very convenient is it because they don't integrate technology or simply think this is more credible ? ' Karma knocks on the door and waits as an avian child looks up at him .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAmYmpBQRgY0
" Ehh who are you ? " " Karma Count I take it that Lulu decided to tell you more about me before ? " Croton states for a while " AHHH YOU MEAN YOU'RE THE COUNT ? " Karma covers his ears and waits for Croton to catch his breath .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAlgYgJLgbmD
" Not so loud yes I am I heard you are lacking in speeding up the circulation of nutrients it's not my expertise in gardening but I do have some decomposers for you " Croton calls down a little hearing how Lulu talked with Karma .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAdvqTSEl4lY
" Ehh did you already get a spatial storage " " Sort of was there supposed to be a species that you actually wanted ? " " There is but they are a bit uncontrollable " ' Well here comes my initial impressions of the magic community ' " Oh is it like slimes ? " Karma joked " Ehh no more like a lump of cells " ' Now back to the uncommon magic fantasy '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAhgtmeymAJf
" They're more like our offshoots though " ' What is the magical community a community for a bunch of dungeon bosses ? Or are they supposed to be some mother of all monsters like Lilith is to all the demons ? '
573Please respect copyright.PENANA9i48I9PqK4
Karma rubs his head and wonders what he should do " Enough of all that magical biology , I'll give you the decomposer is there any place you'd like me to go to ? "
573Please respect copyright.PENANArnOfKy9Lyu
Croton looks at the fields " We do have a few fields we already got the data from so you can leave them there " ' While we are walking I'll split up the contracted infernal's into tinier cells my memories sure are convenient ' " By the way do you guys keep control of the monsters that came off your body ? " ' There might be a lost piece here if not '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAkvOc38HNPB
" Of course , we can but some of us decide to let them out to see how they develop of course this type of experiment is something that everyone has to know so we can isolate them in one area " " Come to think of it how big is the magic community ? " " I don't know " " You don't ? " " Yep after all this place is just one giant plane of existence it seems so weird and all "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAPhR6eTCw6p
Karma was confused as he summoned the infernal as a bunch of worms disgusting Croton " Why are you disgusted aren't you a bird " " I only look like this because I want to I don't like worms we have our own cuisine you know ? " " Ehh you do then tell me what you eat " Croton hesitantly said .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAr6OsXhliET
" It's actually cannibalism " The innocent-looking children of magic suddenly look more demonic than demons because of what Croton had said .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAM0MT8yJfEh
" I'm sorry ? " " We don't have to eat or anything we usually breathe our food like some fishes on the ocean but if the option comes out some chop up parts on themselves like at extra tail and cook it "
573Please respect copyright.PENANA3za0VgfS9v
Karma looks at Croton's extra wings and figures out why they have them " Do you just snap them off ? " Croton nodded not intending to continue ' then is Lulu having an extra tail so she can chop it off and cook it ? But why ? ' his surprise left eventually as he left to finish his business .
573Please respect copyright.PENANACGvgUBKQCy
" Man this trip to the magic community just keeps shattering and shattering my previous expectations " Karma looks at the promise keepers " Is gale here ? " After hearing some silence Truth responded " no " " oh I guess they got attached to the children should I call Sebastian to take care of them "
573Please respect copyright.PENANABRzE0uege1
" what about the thing you said about not involving others ? " " Look some truths will eventually turn to lies it is a way for someone to be free from promises of course you can think of it as breaking a promise but will the sky always be bright when the seasons change ? "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAB3GVIVSn2j
Truth thinks of it a little and says " No maybe it's because the weather is changing " " Yep that's just like how a person will have to break their promise because they are no longer the same person or in the same situation when they made that promise make sure you understand that "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAABPWu2xGeC
Truth felt some enlightment as Karma calls Sebastian .

Cain walks through a vast grassland walking through a fence ' Don't police usually have a warrant for these but then again there is the clause of loss and reward as long as I bring enough to compensate for the fine of intruding on a property I am allowed to offset it by producing results for intruding property . '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAchVfi8WrAW
He looks at the scythe feeling the power ' But then there is property damage right ? But there are flexible ways to compensate I'm sure I can ask him to help me compensate for it ' Cain swings his scythe as a dark aura spreads causing plants to wither .
573Please respect copyright.PENANA9sIF6l0dUP
Cain held the scales and said " For two meals one has to work for a day of labor without break " Two lights glow as they spread through the garden " Is no one home ? " Cain looks beyond the property seeing how far they spread as he lets it go even further in case Rochester decides to use more .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAGr1Fvu5M4T
' He can't go that far very quickly unless he has some spatial-related magic which he said is even rarer ' Cain looks around trying to sense any souls ' Did I come here for no reason at all or does he have some way to avoid being seen it might be true considering he has evaded arrest '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAp1BOkpbW5D
Cain thinks of the possibility of an underground shelter " Whatever it is , he never said I shouldn't make the loss bigger I'll just blame it all on Rochester later " Cain jumps and looks at the giant withered patch of land .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAqmmxYTsLWP
His scythe glows gathering more of his anti-farming curse and struck the land with it . He stood back again and could tell how far down he made it spread " Should I call the police now ? "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAoOWNnS22uB
As he was wondering just how to find it , Rochester was underground trapped inside the middle of a pathway ' What the hell ? I thought I would be able to get out but they sent someone to counteract my magic ? Moreover , They killed all the plants and now this accursed tree is preventing me from leaving '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAfPK2bjHTLp
The hidden pathway Rochester built was only able to move with anyone with the affinity of life because it was covered with a specially made tree whose seeds he bought from Croton's research group .
573Please respect copyright.PENANA5fLOux1z6c
" At least I can get out by carving it " Rochester stabbed the tree as his metal dagger snapped and fell as he looked at it " WHAT THE HELL THIS IS EVEN WORST " he sat on the floor and looked up wondering if Cain was busy digging to find him .

" Boss I can't believe you told me to go to hell and sent me to hell " Sebastian said as he looked around " Oh shut it we are here to make you contract an infernal "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAB10gNYjquu
" am I able to beat it ? " " Yeah but they'll keep raising back from the dead if you can't do a thing about it but I'll be helping you contract one and after that I want you to go and take care of the children . "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAnKZknVbtdS
" It's those new children that died a long time right ? " " Yep be sure to teach them and raise them also I might have to look into the human spirit thing " " Oh are you interested in learning more ? " Sebastian asked as Karma shook his head .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1nbZSqoRG
" I'm already used to the modern world right now no need to teach me anything " " Oh our young master has grown a lot " Sebastian said wiping a small tear " Yeah I did , didn't I ? " Karma said showing unease of his time when he was still a baby .
573Please respect copyright.PENANA3EqFSgzmx0
" Even if you were already mentally ready for the world you still weren't ready to live as a human so it was a must for me to teach you everything myself " Karma's unease continues as Sebastian said " You know when I read the founder's diary I was so touched "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAYr1SRS3gi6
" Yeah yeah can you contract an infernal already or beat one " " Ahh I shall then it has been a while since I fought " ' This man is saying that but there is hardly anything that can take him in a fight '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAWmUF8xtSaC
Karma watched as Sebastian disappeared and beat an infernal on his own " Oh looks like they can still get up " Sebastian punched the infernal heavily as Karma recalled all the injections that Sebastian had been receiving to allow him to stay at peak condition .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAiQEUeadF4b
' Dang he used to have some physical problems but after all those extensive programs I couldn't believe he is constantly in peak condition with that much strength available ' he watched Sebastian punch through the infernals wondering if Sebastian would be able to have a very strong spirit when he dies .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAK6x7txtGKM
' Actually , if he does die I'll just see if I can have him back after all I am under a contract to get any unwanted souls but in reality , the clause was "souls who have no place to go" With his loyalty , he might come back '
573Please respect copyright.PENANA1vw1kH49Pd
Karma smiled as he looked at the number of infernals that had several of their bones snapped " Young master is this enough " " Too much even if you lived longer than I did I doubt you'd be able to get that much just grab two that you like "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAmeiE1Jxijd
They completed the contract repeating the process Karma made a contract except he facilitated the contract-making as the two infernals raised " alright now be sure to take care of them " " I will and I will ensure they grow up to be well educated children " Karma returns home and calls James .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAybygfoSlot
" What there are witches and demons in this world ? " " Yep I already contacted one and I want to send you to go to the witches and talk with them after all I do have things I want to get from them but don't kill them of course if you die a reaper will come to collect your soul I already have connections with the reapers so I'll make sure you will always be alive "
573Please respect copyright.PENANADsgzoox1GS
James couldn't believe how little Karma cared about his life " I expected you to be very influential but even hell and heaven ? " " My guardian angel did say I was shown too bright or some similar simile or was it metaphor ? " " Hah does Isir know too ? " " They're the first to know they figured it out with information alone "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAMHK0fdSNHI
James looks at the demons who couldn't hear anything " Then are those demons going to eat my soul ? " " No if they did they would be messing with me and you know what happens when they do "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAn0K1VSGfwE
James knows what would happen " But anyways you don't have to fight the witches I'm gonna send you to deal with I'm just sending you to make sure they give me copies of their new age witchcraft because the old age witchcraft had a lot to do with demons "
573Please respect copyright.PENANArUdVDpcaKE
" What's the new age ? " " Maybe something to do with only humans , I heard from Lilith that human spirits are very strong because we live a horrible life who knows maybe if you ask for the witches' teachings they will first kill you and revive you so that you can use it "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAU50oeXsHBA
Hearing that he has to die to get something " No I think I'll stay human " " It's okay just make sure to learn the teachings in case you die that way you wouldn't be defenseless maybe that liar Lilith should've seen this coming "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAFqYBo64uNk
... " Boss how many biblical relics that you have are legit ? " " The six waterpots make for good wine too bad my wine industry is still better " " Then what does the crown of thorns do ? " " Don't know one thing is for sure it's something crucial for revelation "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAwgVk2qPMQX
" Are you doing something about the end of times ? " " Yep that thing has a lot of names but the bibles depicts it as a preparation for the coming of god " " But aren't you accelerating it by trying to avoid it I heard this a lot in games "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAYQIvUypSCW
Karma thinks about it " Well I wouldn't I did I am currently focusing on the four horsemen so I will have to try to make sure all of them are stuck somewhere far away and keep track of them " " Maybe you shouldn't wear it "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAkhqEj4PA2I
" ??? Why ? " " According to the bible that crown represents all the sins of the world or of humanity and the son of god who wore it was meant for them to carry all the sins so humans can have a golden crown "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAtVFj8r26RD
Karma wondered as he looked at the crown unable to accept merit " Hmm thanks for the tip James also be sure to pay the witches a visit and after that come to the house okay I have someone I want you to see "

Rochester looked up wondering why nothing happened and suddenly recalled the time when he had to wait for Karma " Dang because I waited and didn't take action I couldn't get the Count into this deal "
573Please respect copyright.PENANA3Qw6QPexEO
He looks up " Even if I'm cornered better hope to be free than get arrested " Rochester dug his pockets holding some seeds that died along with the tree roots ' I'm not sure who is up there but whoever it is they have some anti-life curse preventing me from using my magic '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAsWp3nLbfGV
He channels a big portion of his vitality into the seeds and turns the seeds into a tree ' I better keep my body intact I don't know any kind of necromancy or life creation so I have to protect my own body '
573Please respect copyright.PENANA3PHXOmLHCw
Cain felt the ground shake as he put his phone away and summons his scythe turning the scales into a tattoo for storage " It's coming maybe he's growing some kind of plant down there I did leave a lot of nutrients behind "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAIn84zBeDQn
He watched as several tiny sprouts appeared on the withered ground and summoned the scales of famine again " A meal equates to four days of labor " he sent the scales off after setting it ' I'm pushing my curse to its limits and god doesn't seem to care '
573Please respect copyright.PENANApimiBqMyYq
The scales floated by him like the scales of judgment floated by Karma as Cain tries to spot the enemy " Where the hell is he ? " He swung his scythe intending to spread more of the combined power of his curse and death .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAF0Ci27raph
' Not here if he died I would hear his screams somewhere or should I focus on feeling a different friction ' Despite not having so many useful abilities his use of the scythe allowed him to get a feel of the slicing of human flesh and bones allowing him to be able to indicate whether he killed someone or not .
573Please respect copyright.PENANA655vN0ORcm
' This is hard maybe it's because I always killed normal humans this one is not normal ' he thinks about ways to get to Rochester ' Wait I have that sevenfold payback , if I let the trees hit me I would be able to kill him after all that tree is being controlled '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAJaGGoIE7hA
The sprouts were attracted to a source of vitality and with all the withered land they were aiming for Cain who unsummoned his weapon and let them attempt to take his vitality slowly " what ? " Rochester fell feeling his vitality being drained .
573Please respect copyright.PENANA4g4LwBF939
' Shit it had to be Cain ' he disconnected his control as Cain looked at the roots and crawls to the pathway ' Forget it I'll just try to crawl away after all if he couldn't find me I can just use this passage , I made this type of doors because I can control it and it hardens if it dies but I didn't think I would lose all my strength thankfully the seeds poked some holes I just have to crawl out '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAru3fmpyAMV
Cain felt stronger as he watched the plant drain its vitality to Cain " I'm sure they should get here by now " " AHHH IT'S CAIN " he looked at the earth children as he walked aside as far as he could and yelled .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAlorAb3D7ms
" Rochester seems to be underground I don't know why he is still down there though " they looked at the withered property " Uhm we are not going to die right ? "
573Please respect copyright.PENANAZnN3IG1SET
" No my curse only applies to the land moreover you can overcome it plus it only prevents plants from growing it doesn't kill a plant think of it as the preservation of death rather than death itself "
573Please respect copyright.PENANA7w87WA1zlY
The children didn't feel safe but they at least trusted Cain considering he doesn't passively kill plants or else he wouldn't be giving them a location instead of telling them to follow a path of decay .
573Please respect copyright.PENANAmbDffIbM5z
They sent vibrations like an earthquake to feel the earth and located Rochester as they proceeded with the arrest Cain looked at the bright sky with a sun recalling that it was supposed to be a night at the place he sleeps .
573Please respect copyright.PENANA8owxBANPiG
' Is this something like the timezones back home ? ' he sighed and decided to go to Lulu since he had already finished the arrest leaving a note saying he wanted to talk to Rochester for Karma to do what he wants with him .

Karma lays on his bed as the promise keepers entire the dream world that Dream described to them " Wow it's amazing " or something similar was spoken to every promise keepers as the ones who have been here let them know what they are here for as Karma continues to sleep .

Isir on the other hand was bored now that they did everything they had to ' I already established some finance but Boss said not to use the merit even if I got it from others so far I'm just using games as a form of money and software to sell and earn favors '
573Please respect copyright.PENANAPTEnRBSEbz
Eating their dinner while waiting for the time to rest . James also contacted the witches and Truth was busy with their enlightment reflecting with their thoughts . Finally , Sebastian went to the villa that was turned into an orphanage .
