----Completed----


----Synopsis----
There are several Death Reapers in the world, and each of them is assigned souls who die a certain way.

One day a mortal man named Haalfrin catches the eye of 2 Reapers – Freyya the death god of mortals fallen in battle, and Das, the reaper of souls who are killed by time – by old age.

For reasons unknown yet, Das and Freyya each want to claim Haalfrin’s mortal soul. 

Being a warrior craving excitement and a life worth living, Haalfrin makes an easy target for Freyya (or so she thinks), as she creatively tries to think of ways to make sure Haalfrin doesn’t come back from his adventures alive, while her counterpart Das is trying to keep the mortal alive just long enough to expire naturally.

…The only catch is that Haalfrin himself has recently lost his entire clan, and his only desire left to him is to die a cool death. Maybe this way, he can make one final story he can tell his brothers when he meets them on the other side.


----Author Notes----
1. I don't plan on Contracting Webnovel for this Book, since it's just a hobby right now and this is my first book. SO, THIS BOOK IS COMPLETELY FREE. It's copyrighted though, so don't take this book and sell it - obviously.

2. When I showed some siblings the synopsis, they thought this was going to be a comedy. This story does have a few funny parts (particularly in Volume 4), but that's it. As a whole, this story is NOT a comedy. It's a story about a man who wants to die.

The Hall of Valor

First off, this is my first book, and I'm a complete amateur. I went into this book not really knowing what I was doing or where to start. However, as I started writing, I started to pick things up, and I began to notice some of the flaws in the story. Unfortunately, most of these realizations came after I'd already started publishing the book.


Basically, this book is my experimental book. You know... the best way to learn how to swim is to just jump in and figure it out... right? Anyway, this was intended to be my throwaway book - the thing that I'm ok with messing up. However, I grew really fond of the characters, and I'm beginning to feel that they deserve better.


However, this book is already completed & published, so I feel weird rewriting it. Plus, I'm currently working on "The Goddess of Silence", which is a much better book. So, here are a list of changes that I plan on making in the future, whenever I have time.


Volume 1: Minor change at the end. (Haalfrin loses the duel against General Kaalhyme instead of winning.) Also, I will add a few more scenes at the beginning to familiarize the readers with the magic system better. We need to see Haalfrin experiment more with his magic, so the readers know what mages are capable of better.


Volume 2: Currently rewriting the entire volume. I feel like the whole arc lacked focus, and it was lackluster. Hence, I'm going to rewrite it to where Haalfrin works for Kaalhyme's people in defending their home against the Alastans. Also, I'm getting rid of Prince Talus and Prince Kanus. I felt they were a little cringe-worthy.


Volume 3: I love the prison arc the way it is, though I might scrap the Stancrock Island arc right after that. I feel like it may be redundant. I don't know yet.


Volume 4: Mostly unchanged. Maybe check for grammar.


Volume 5: My favorite Volume. This arc is the standard for how good I want the rest of my book to be. It's precisely what I've always wanted from Haalfrin's story. There is one minor change I'm going to make, though. I mentioned casually in this volume that something called a "Death Key" was made in the war. I only mentioned it before since it's canon that portals to the Realm of the Dead are created when a lot of people die in the same place. After mentioning the key was made, I just let it fade out of the story. However, I'm going to have to make this thing more important.


Volume 6: The beginning is perfect. However, the Lareen arc and everything after is going to be rewritten. The entire volume needs to be more focused, so the Mantling Ritual (the last struggle between Freyya, Das, and Haalfrin) is going to take almost the entire Volume, instead of just 20 chapters at the end.
