Fatal Revelation: A Righteous Crusade In Asphodel

In the world of Asphodel, a tale rides the breaths of its people. It sings of an Inquisitor, an exorcist of great renown.

In the Elysian Orthodoxy, many tell of the one raised by the Interrogator. The little monster to the Exalted Butcher, his eyes pierce through the veil of the material world, as if they had seen the peerless void beyond space and time, and travelled between its infinite bounds. Unfeeling and unmoved, many even doubt his existence.

Many say he has devoted his life butchering the evil that lurks about the murky shadows, to inspire great fear, so that they don't even dare leaving their caverns in the underworld. He fights for the Lord, his mind tempered by the muddy flames of evil, and his spirit guided by hallowed light.

"Is that what they say? Ridiculous, this has gotten out of hand."
"It is. You've garnered quite the reputation, yet this-"
"-is not favorable to an Inquisitor, I know. What can I do? You know I don't focus on anything else when I'm fighting, people just-"
"-happen to see, I know. It's a bad habit. But forget that, you have a new assignment."
"About time."
"We have detected movements from the Holy Ankou Sovereignty. The Archbishop suspects demonic activity."
"Investigate?"
"And deal with it. I trust you, go on."

A reincarnation story centered around the question, "Why do main characters just ignore the implications of the existence of an omnipotent being?" I felt that was an unexplored element in all these stories, so... let's see what happens, shall we?
