章 39: The Crossroads Of Fate

Adeu came back to his house, the weight of his thoughts pressing heavily on his shoulders. His steps echoed in the quiet hall, he climbed the stairs to his room.

Just when he reached the top, a sharp pain pierced his heart, and his vision blurred. He stumbled, fell, and then... darkness.

When Adeu woke, he was enveloped in a black void. The silence was suffocating until a voice broke through the darkness. "Welcome," it said, reverberating through the emptiness. The voice was deep, resonant, and carried an air of unchallengeable authority.

Adeu's heart pounded in his chest. "Who is this?" he asked, not with fear, but with confusion and bewilderment.

"I am the God of Death, Pharnavaz," the voice replied, its tone almost amused.

"I control every death. I am the one who sends souls to heaven and the underworld. I am a true god, one of the most important pillars of the World of Gods."
