Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife



She took two steps away from Severus and plopped herself down onto the orange couch. To her, it was only logical that they go in and poke around to see what was on the the other side of the vortex. Why was he so against it? Wasn't he curious?

"You said it yourself Severus, our workload had been multiplied because souls are leaking from that place. It only makes sense that we should go over and see what's causing the problem. If we can plug the hole then we do so and if we cannot then we seek solutions from those above us."

"I will give you credit for your last statement but not what you said before. All grim reapers are assigned their own worlds so you cannot carelessly wander into another world without an invitation from the reaper of that world or authorization from our Lord." Severus explained to her. He spoke with a serious look in his eyes, one that held all of her attention. "Also, you cannot go into that place carelessly, there is another grim reaper on this world besides you who is facing a similar problem. Why wasn't your first thought to contact and share this information with him? A problem halved is a problem.....what is it?" He broke off while making confused statements and questioning himself.

She watched him mumble and prance around as he did his best to recall the proper way to finish his sentence.

"Do you know how that statement ends? He finally asked.

"No." She shrugged

"Oh well," he shrugged and said, "What matters is that you cannot face danger alone if there is a companion who is willing to accompany you on your journey."

She scoffed and asked him, "What makes you think that Ramslin is willing to follow me into that place? I have never cooperated with him before, we have not said more than ten sentences to each other. He never stays around me for too long, I actually think he doesn't like me."

"Have you ever reached out to him before coming to that judgement? Use the forum, send him a message and tell him about what you discovered. For all you know, he has encountered the space crack before and he could have useful information to share."

The more she attentively listened to Severus and seriousness considered his opinion, the more she realised that maybe, the hound was right.

Ramslin had been here longer than her, he could have seen something.

She got on to the forum, in put his name and was directed to him. He had a shop in the underworld as well, selling flowers.

She decided to buy some seeds from him using high energy crystals, all reapers liked those and he would surely contact her soon.

As she waited for his response, it struck her as weird that both of them were reapers on the same world and yet, neither had the others contact.

After waiting around for ten minutes with no response, Severus got on to his legs and said, "see you later".

"Where are you going?" She asked him.

"To see if I can find you some answers and to get you training equipment from Halder for the duo leader board games. We can't just sit around waiting for him to contact you. This would be much easier if we could blink our way to his human residence."

"Let's do that." She nodded. Such an easy solution had been at their fingertips all along.

"We need an invitation first, otherwise we will simply loiter around in the area. Don't even think about returning to that place without me. I will be back." Severus waited to receive an affirmation from her.

"I won't." She said to him.

"I mean it Scarlet, remember that we are tied together, your fate and mine." He reminded her.

"I really won't." She assured him.

Severus left but whether he believed her assurances or not was unclear.

Scarlet looked at her terminal and had a thought, she could remember someone saying that there was possibility mutated beasts were coming out of a crack in a space from another world or she read it somewhere but she could not quite place her finger on where she heard that information. Her mind kept drawing blanks as she thought about it.

After failing at the memory recall for twenty good minutes, she gave up, but only temporarily. She promised herself to return to it later.

She checked the underworld forum and saw no response from Ramslin still, which tickled her curiosity. Wasn't this guy very active in her live broadcast only a while ago? Where had he sudden disappeared to?

She sighed, and closed the forum. Randomly, she asked herself, "Am I the only reaper who has nothing to sell on the forum?"

On a whim, she returned to the underworld forum, and paid three energy crystals to operate a shop. Additionally, she paid ten high energy crystals for a trading licence.

"Tsk, tsk, you guys just love taking back what we earn. Why is it so expensive?" Even as she paid, she could not resist complaining.

Hawk had said that since they didn't get hungry, grim reapers did not eat food so she was experimenting with snacks. If she was successful, she would rent a place in the Dark rune village.

She received a message on the forum, but when she checked, it was frost.

"Hey partner, wanna do a training session together?" His message was read out loud by a small animated figure which looked exactly like him.

She laughed before replying, "Not now, later."

"Okay partner."

She would wait for Severus to return from Halder's shop with the training equipment so that she was not a blank page when she met him.

She stayed at the window, looking outside at the falling snow and time passed without her realisation. Somehow she found herself dozing off and she got a warm blanket from her storage space and covered herself. Lately, she thought, she was sleeping a lot. Maybe, she was more exhausted because of the coldness.

"Master, your brother Adler is looking for you. Should I have him sent up here?"

She had barely closed her eyes when she heard Alex saying this.

"Send him up." She responded.

Then she yawned, multiple times and groaned as if she had been woken up from a deep sleep.

Adler came into the indoor patio and he found her stretching her arms. He joined her on the couch and he proceeded to sag, sitting like a sack of potatoes which was about to fall over. He brought his fingers to his temples and attempted to alleviate his headache in the manner which she taught him.

He was unshaven and his eyes were slightly red, not from crying, she assumed. It was probably exhaustion that was eating all the way into his bones. It seemed, her favourite brother was having a tough time sleeping lately and this was probably a side effect of Amara's presence on the blue star and in the castle so close to him.

Maybe it was time to command the woman to leave her castle, she was fully healed after all and her continued stay was becoming detrimental to her brother's state of mind. And the physical one obviously.

"So," she said, "talk to me."
