Every 2100 years, Demons and Angels will go to war. The winner gets heaven, the loser go to hell. Literally.

There's only one rule. Both sides cannot directly fight each other, nor can they use their powers to affect the result of the game. They can only choose the humans fighting for their side, and accept the result gracefully.

An unlikely pair of friends, a demon and an angel, tasked to infiltrate the lives of humans to select their champion, grew weary of the war. They did not want to fight each other. And the Earth was beautiful, if it's not ravage by war. Plus, humans are super interesting beings. They do not want to kill these lovely creatures they thought of as their pets.

They wanted to stop the war, but they cannot use their power directly. They can't go to good people. The good will automatically choose the Angel's side. They cannot go to the bad people. That's technically a demon already. 

Backed into a corner, they used their powers, and jumped back in time. Trying to find a bad person with a good heart. Luckily there's Joseph. A perfect candidate to be reincarnated into the 21st century.

Can Joseph really succeed? Will his strategy before worked in the 21st century? Can he rebuild his empire, and be reunited with his friends? Only one way to find out, isn't it?

EVIL REINCARNATION

Peccatum and Bonum looked at each other again, perplexed. "You don't like the future?" Bonum asked.


"Oh it's not that. I just...I ruined many lives in my time. I was glad there's someone there who stood up to bring my tyranny down. I'd hate to go and ruined her hard work."


Peccatum chuckled. "Oh you don't have to worry about that. The future is much worse."


"Yeah. I mean, people lived fine I guess. But I think the bad guys of that area used your strategies. Keeping the people satisfied, placated. Only, they don't have your good intentions. They manipulate the people for wealth and power. The people are being oppressed without their own knowledge."


"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Joseph sudden laughter shocked Peccatum and Bonum. "Wow, so I am responsible for the demise of generations after me as well huh? How 'great' of a person am I? You know Pecca, I think I deserved hell."


Pecca gently run her hand over Joseph's hair. "Hey, you're not that bad your majesty. You are not responsible for other people's actions. You used it for good. They used it for bad purposes. Good actions means that you are good people. Even if you did bad things too."


"Heh, and if I am resurrected? What then? Maybe I'll rebuilt my crime empire again. Maybe I'll be the Dark King of the Future, and ruined it even more."


Bonum chuckled. 'We're...kind of hoping you would."


"Well, to be more specific, we want you to do what you did in your time, in the future. At our time."


"What? Why? Things are bad enough as it is. You want to mix in chaos in there as well?"


Bonum suddenly stood up. "And what's wrong with chaos? Chaos is just an event in nature. Earthquake may be bad, but it created islands. Snow is bad, but it's beautiful. Chaos is just the happenings that happen naturally. You just chose to look at the bad things you did, not the good that came from it."


"Heh, so I'm chaos huh?" Joseph chuckled. "Not a bad name that? Maybe my parents could name me that?"


Peccatum's smile got excited. "Oh, we could arrange that. So, would you do it?"


"Well, I can't say no after Bonum gave that beautiful speech." Bonum slowly sat down, and just looked at the fire. Her cheek was flushed red. "I still don't get why though. I mean, can't you just take the people at your time?Why come for me?"


"It's kind of a long story, you know." Peccatum said.


"Oh yeah, and I am super busy. I have to go to weddings after this, the Meeting of the Kings, I got to go and slay some dragons too. I don't have...OWWW!"


Bonum and Peccatum both smacked Joseph on the head. He just gave them that boyish grin as he rubbed his head.
