DRACO137

----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

When Dakka was going to look for a way to feed the Ants, he found several cabinets enchanted with Space magic, so that they could hold a LOT of supplies. 


In these cabinets, he found thousands and thousands of tons of unplanted seeds.


Of course, these seeds had to have been taken from the Death Realm; otherwise, any plant from the Living Realm would instantly wither and die under this extreme amount of Death Aura in the air.


The great thing about Death Plants is that they don't EVER have to be restocked; they can be reused over and over again. This is a huge blessing to the Arkin, since they're all mostly poor citizens in the Death Realm.


The reason for this is because the Death Realm plants, much like the Arkin, constantly regenerate. Even if they're eaten or destroyed, they'll slowly regrow to their original appearance.


For this reason, seeds from Death Realm plants are kept under special seals to prevent them from spontaneously growing again when they're not being used.


One might also ask, "If the Death Plants just regenerate, then why have so many spare seeds kept hidden in the Valor Hall?"


This is because Death Plants take hundreds of years to grow again, unlike the Arkin, who regenerate within an hour or two. In order to have enough food for every meal, every day, they have to rotate the crops out a lot.


Back to the Arkin being really poor and low class in the Death Realm, how were they able to afford so many tons of seeds to bring with them to the Hall of Valor?


Remember that plants have souls too, and the souls of every living being who dies is taken to the Death Realm.


Think about how many crops are killed – young seedlings butchered – just to feed one human in his lifetime.


If the Death Realm is already overpopulated from too many people dying, but no land being available, then think about how serious the overpopulation problem is for plants!


When you consider that the souls of crop plants are practically infinity, it suddenly becomes clear that fruits and vegetables are, by far, the cheapest thing in the Death Realm.


With the Supply of available crop souls available eternally rising, yet the number of room for people to live forever remaining the same, it becomes inevitable for crops to be the absolutely most WORTHLESS thing in all the Death Realm.


Heck, farmers are just giving seeds away for free in the Death Realm! Those cursed Reapers are always dumping more crops souls on them than they know what to do with!


With this in mind, the Arkin really had no trouble getting Death Plant seeds to take with them back to their war with the Ants.


Of course, there's one major reason why infinitely reviving Death Plants isn't used to solve famine problems in the Mortal Worlds.


Obviously, eating something from the Death Realm would kill almost anyone. Even someone powerful like a god would at least get sick, and mages would shorten their lifespans.


The reason why Haalfrin could eat these plants is clearly because he has Death Affinity; the Death Aura in the plants could never harm him.


As for the Queen and her Ants, she's proven to be almost just as Death Aura resistant as Haalfrin himself – all because her Ants and herself die so often, and have thus come to be immune to death's Aura.


Because of this, Dakka correctly assumes that the Ants can eat Death Plants.
