Awakening

"Death," immediately after the Shinigami King Ryoma said this word and wrote it in his notebook, the old couple Chian and Jin ceased their resistance and movement!

Then their eyes rolled back, and they fell to the ground without any reaction.

But the problem was that no one was surprised by this strange event! On the contrary, all the other Shinigami burst into laughter and shouts at the foolishness of the two.

Only two people remained quiet without a real reaction, Yagami and Ryok.

"Hmm, so it seems. Oh Ryok, I have a question I hope you can answer," Yagami put his hands behind his back, indicating the seriousness of the situation!

"What is it, you rascal?" Ryok replied with an expressionless face.

"I noticed that at the moment Ryoma took out his death note, all the Shinigami bowed their heads as if they were in the presence of something sacred. But previously, when Ryoma decided to give me the system of death and life, they called him a fool!! Tell me, where is the logic in this?" Yagami furrowed his brows as if pondering deeply, as if he realized something was happening behind the scenes.

"Hahaha, you rascal, you never cease to pique my interest with your high intelligence. Well, I guess there's no need to explain what's happening because with your damn intelligence, you've already guessed it!!" Ryok looked at him and then burst into his famous laughter without caring about anything.

"Hmm, as I thought, the note that Ryoma took out is not his own; perhaps it belongs to a higher being than him. Despite spending a very long time in this world, this is the first time I've seen Ryoma or the other Shinigami. I still remember the first time I met Ryok!! He told me that when a user of the death note dies, they won't go to heaven or hell. In the end, he was right; I served my sentence in this gloomy world, but the question remains: What does Ryoma want from me!!" Yagami was lost in deep thought until Ryok interrupted him.

"Yagami Light, it's time to go! Quickly, take the memories of these two old folks and everything they have," the Shinigami King Ryoma looked at Yagami and said to him.

"How do I do that?" Yagami replied.

"No problem, just put your hand on each of their heads, and I'll take care of the rest!" Ryoma replied.

Upon hearing Ryoma's words, Yagami moved towards the bodies of the old couple without hesitation, as if it was something he was accustomed to doing. After a few seconds, he held the head of each of them, then sat on the ground and closed his eyes.

As soon as Yagami closed his eyes, Ryoma took out his own death note again and began writing something. Initially, Yagami didn't feel any change, but after several minutes, he was surprised by a flood of unfamiliar information and memories forcibly entering his mind!!

The process continued for 20 to 30 minutes, and when it was over, Yagami collapsed to the ground unconscious!!

"In the end, he's just an ordinary human!! Ryok, I don't know if your idea will be successful or not, but at least the experiment is better than nothing; we've failed hundreds of times before, so it's okay if we fail again," the Shinigami King Ryoma looked at Ryok and said to him.

"Hahaha, don't worry, I have a strong feeling that this time it will be different, or at least we'll achieve good results," Ryok exchanged the same looks with him and replied.

"Hmm, I don't know where you get all that confidence from, but I hope you're right," Ryoma replied, saying.

Seconds passed, and Ryok looked at the unconscious Yagami on the ground, then looked at Ryoma and said to him in a soft tone, "I know what you're thinking, but don't worry, the Shinigami trusts the Shinigami more than humans!!"

Ryoma stared at him with a strange look, but in the end, he answered with just one word: "Good."

"Alright then, let's go and start making the system of death and life," with Ryok saying this, he and the Shinigami King disappeared from their place, and the other Shinigami scattered. In that area, there remained a person unconscious beside two bodies.

After about 12 hours, Yagami woke up from his coma, looked around, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath as he regained his composure.

"Oh, you woke up!! I thought you'd take at least another two days, but it seems like your brain is bigger than your frail body," Ryoma, who was standing next to Yagami, spoke, with a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

"What do we do now?" Yagami looked at him, narrowing his eyes, and then asked.

"What do we do? Nothing. I'll give you your other gift, then you'll leave for your new world. As for where or what you'll do, I think there's no need for me to tell you," Ryoma looked at him and said in a cold tone.

Yagami stood in place, waiting for the next step. Ryoma stepped forward, touched Yagami's forehead with his middle finger, and in the next moment, a qualitative change occurred, and a miniature model of a death and life system appeared, half white and half black, entered Yagami's mind.

After several minutes, a transparent screen appeared, visible only to Yagami, as Ryok's voice rang in his mind!!

"Oh, you rascal, we meet again."

"Ryok? I thought you were going to enter a sleep or something, but it seems you're still here. Also, what's with this transparent screen? It seems like I'm in Japan!" 

"The system of death and life is much more advanced than what's called Japanese technology or Earth's technology, so understand that there's no technology that can simulate this system. You'll understand everything in due time. Now, enough with the questions; I'm dying of boredom. Take the bodies, absorb their energy, then store them in the warehouse; you may need them later," Ryok spoke within Yagami's mind.

"How do I do that?" Yagami asked Ryok, who replied, "The system of death and life isn't complicated at all; all you have to do is say the word, and you'll get what you want because it's linked to your brain. For example, say the word 'absorb' and think about what you want to absorb, but make sure to touch the thing you want to absorb."

"Um, I somewhat understand," Yagami moved towards the body of the old man Jin, then touched it and said, "Absorb."

In the next moment, something strange happened; a miniature death and life system appeared, and the first page opened with the word 'absorb' written on it along with information about the old man Jin!!

After that, Jin's Dantian center exploded, releasing the energy he had accumulated throughout his life, which was then absorbed by the miniature death and life system. Then, a beam of darkness and light enveloped Yagami's body.

Following that, a strange awakening occurred for Yagami!!!
