If the world made you feel abandoned.

.

No money

.

No Family

.

No Life

.

No Home

.

What can be the value of your soul?

.

A devil was randomly walking on the street.

It was merely searching for a lost abandon soul it can trick.

Their are plenty scattered in this corrupted world.

People who lost the reason to live.

The Devil steps can travel thousands of miles.

It can even appear at any spot it wanted.

.

As it pass at a random bridge.

It saw a man standing as if it wanted to jump in the river.

The man was throwing coins in the middle of the bridge.

It was as if he was going crazy not knowing what to do with his life.

The devil approaches him while the crazy man continued to throw the coins at the river one of it fell from his pocket.

It rolled towards the Devils direction and stop after it hit the Devils shoes.

The Devil was amuse.

As it was not the first time it happens.

The Devil has a bad habit of granting any mortal that throws a random coin at it.

While the crazy man did not do it on purpose the Devil still believe it's fate.

.

"What a nice night it is? I pick a coin on the road in the middle of the bridge"

"Who are you?"

The crazy man realize their was another person at the bridge.

It was the middle of the night and that made him vigilant.

What kind of person would approach him in this empty bridge.

Was it a thief?

A drunk?

But hearing the voice makes him think that neither of them fits as the person was clearly kind enough to warn him.

.

"Who are you?"

"Just a random passer by.."

"What do you want! Go away stop bothering me!'

"I pick your coin do you want it back?"

"Just a stupid coin you can have it!"

"By the way I am a Devil that grant wish. What is it that you desire since you already paid me a coin I can grant your wish but the next time you die your soul is mine"

.

The crazy man was not thinking straight at the moment so he went with the flow thinking that the person in front of him was just joking and messing up his moments.

.

"A wish? Anything I want you can grant it?"

"A single coin for a wish!"

"Just one wish?"

"Any wish your heart desire!"

"Can I go back in the past?"

"Yes!"

"Is it really possible?"

"Yes!"

.

The crazy man wanted to punch the man at it's face but for some odd reason he believes him.

He was broken as he remember how bad his life was.

If he was given a chance why not! Even if it means selling his soul to this Devil.

Despite calling himself a Devil this person was no different from an ordinary person.

While the suit he was wearing seems expensive it doesn't made here look comical rather he was like a businessman wanted to have some business.

It was strange that when he went at this place to throw what's left with his money.

A bag of coins he use to save.

What use are this coins to him when he returns what awaits him was a huge debt.

So he decided to escape.

To escape this world.

He silently stand at the bridge under it was a deep river.

In the middle of the night no one will know if he jump from it and when morning comes he might already be drown to death,

But as a human he naturally fears death.

So when he arrive at the middle of the bridge he change his mind.

Instead he one by one throw the coins he had.

As he throws the coin his mind went crazy.

Thinking of all the bad luck that happened at his life.

The coins seems to be the mistakes he had that he throws on the deep river at the middle of the night.

No one was around to bother him.

But out of nowhere a person calling himself the Devil appeared.

It told him that it was possible to return.

It told him that he can again do what he once failed.

Another chance to live his past life.

But the price was his soul after he died.

.

"Have you decided to accept my offer?"

"Yes"

"Then please sign here"

A contract appear out of nowhere.

It startle the man but now he was convince that all of this was real.

He never bother reading the contract as it was pointless after all this was the Devil.

What was the point of protesting as long as he can return in the past he does not care what the outcome will be.

.

"Here use this pen I have.."

The Devil summon a pen out of the air as he pass it to the man.

The man silently wrote his name at the contract.

.

"Now it's done! Dear costumer have fun going back in the past!"

The Devil gave a benevolent smile as if a God granting a wish to a chosen one.

But what happens next made the man nervous as he started to float from his position and was suddenly thrown at the river.

.

[Splash]

As he was drowning he suddenly realize.

He needed to die to return back in the past.

He calmed down as he embrace death.

At his last breath a the bad memory of his life sudden flash.

As if like watching a movie.

He saw how it all started and where it went wrong.

As the last thing he remember was the benevolent smile of the Devil

A voice suddenly whisper at his ears.

.

"That can't do!"

Another being appeared out of nowhere.

It was so bright that even if it was in the middle of the night the bridge was beaming with brightness.

.

"Bastard what are you doing that soul is mine!"

The devil saw the new comer as it drag the man soul.

"Silly Devil I well steal this soul from you!"

"Bastard stop messing around that soul is important to me!"

"Hmmp just another random soul you granted wish and you believe it's important!?"

"Bastard what do you know that is what we call fate!"

"Ha ha ha a Devil who believes in fate!"

"Give that back to me!"

.

The Devil was so angry that it charge towards the direction of the new comer.

The new comer was also known as the God of Light a rival that had been bothering the Devil for a very long time.

The Devil can't remember why this annoying god was bothering him but sometimes it went over the line like what it was doing at the moment.

The God of Light slash the void as it open a rift and hurriedly enter it.

It entered a void corridor that are surrounded by an endless stars.

The road ahead seems endless as the God of Light was flying while it was being chase by the Devil.

The man who soul was drag remained silent as it was like an empty puppet in the hands of the gods.

The God of Light took a piece of paper out of the soul of the man.

It was the contract that the devil made.

As the God read it he frown slightly as something unfair was written in godly language.

.

"As I thought that Devil can't be trusted as expected of my eternal rival the god of darkness!"

The God of Light clearly saw a cursed was added that might end the life of the contractor.

As it was deeply thinking it can hear the Devil's angry voice shouting at him to release the soul.

.

"I see I can add my own blessings at this contract! The Devil was nice enough to include a system so I might as well add another blessing!"

The God of light was thinking as It added three divine blessings from it.

As it look satisfied of it's work the Devil chasing behind him clearly saw what he just did and almost went insane as it's speed dramatically increase and grab the shoulder of the God of Light.

.

"Shameless god what did you just do!"

"hmmff, you Devil you put a cursed to this poor soul I'm just protecting it!"

"Bastard do you have any idea what you did!"

"Who cares I well protect this poor soul from you!"

.

As they where arguing at the void corridor a meteor suddenly appear out of nowhere.

The two gods who was fighting was suddenly separated and the Light of God clumsily release the soul of the man it was holding.

The soul was drag by the passing meteor as it seem to attract other souls.

.

"Was that the Soul Meteor that gather and collect souls?"

"Idiot your holding a soul of course you'll attract it!"

"Ah ha ha ha did I just made a mistake!"

"You stupid god help me chase it fast!"

.

The Soul Meteor is a tool use to attract lost soul in the abyss then deliver them to the purgatory to wait for a chance to reincarnate.

But the Man soul was special as it has the blessing of the Devil and another Blessing of the God of Light.

How can a tool out run two gods.

In just a few minutes of chasing they already cornered it.

The Devil then search for the Man's soul only to realize it was missing.

It look at the God of Light and then it realize it was trick.

The God of Light was just trying to divert the Devils attention.

Now that the Devil realize all of this no wonder it was strange how can a contracted soul be attracted to a tool that only collect lost souls.

Seeing the God of light's mischievous smile the Devil Can't help but transformed into a berserk demon as it start attacking the God of Light.

.

"Bastard where did you sent the soul!"

"Silly Devil I sent it into that world that both of us can't interfere!"

"I will kill you!"

.

The two god fought for years before another god appeared and stop them as they are destroying the surrounding space and interfering another god's territory.

.

.

A few years pass by and the God of Light can't help but think that it had done something wrong.

"Ahh... I forgot to put human as it's main body..."

"I was sure I set it up as unbreakable body that every one would love to have. A body that is needed and even worship. I wonder what kind of body did that soul possess since I forgot to assign it to a human body any random body might be possible."

.

.

The man open it's eyes but can't see anything.

Everything was dark and he can't seem to move his body.

He tried to move but it was like he doesn't have a body at all.

The dark surrounding made him think that he was blind.

He remember the Devil should have sent him to his past but this wasn't what he expected as he wasn't blind in the first place.

As he was deeply thinking how the Devil must have trick him.

He heard an innocent voice out of nowhere.

.

.

"LUCKY! I pick a coin on the road!"

It was a voice of a child who was happily singing.
