" As much as I would love that people would miss me when they are holding a party or something, I summarised as much," clasping his hands together he nodded. " People don't remember death unless they want the pain to end or they know that there are time is up other than it is only when they want to curse others or want something from me like you, so what do kind of help you want?"
Song Yan opened her mouth to speak but before she could say anything, the grim reaper stopped her with a raise of his hand and said, " Wait, but first where are my offerings?"
" Offerings?" mused Song Yan looking at the grim reaper with a confused expression.
The Grim Reaper threw his hands and sighed with an expression that said ' I knew it', he looked at her. " You came to visit the Grim Reaper and didn't even bring any offerings? I thought that you will bring something for me to eat and some money along with it, do you know how expensive things have gotten in the underworld? I need money and something to eat as well, I haven't eaten anything something since last night, and you came empty-handed? Are you sure you are not taking me lightly? If so I will have to take that soul you brought with me since she is past due."
" I will order something for you," said Song Yan taking out her cellphone with an exaggerated sigh. " Do you want to eat a fruit cake since I don't think I can get you real fruits at the moment——"
" Who offers that Grim reapers these days? Get me a plate of sweet and sour pork, some dim sum, mapo tofu, char Siu and Zhanjiangmian, make it double I need to offer some of them to the higher-ups," he rubbed his hands and cheekily smiled. "I am thinking of using that offering for submitting a request to increase my pay grade."
" You really don't hold back, do you?" said Song Yan with a raise of her brows but she still ordered the dishes that he asked.
"Have you ever seen death holding back?" He asked leaning back on his chair. " This is my nature, I can't ignore it nor can I change it, there is nothing else I can do, death doesn't hold back nor does it know how to be sympathetic, I hope you came to me knowing me that, Song Yan?" His gaze sharpened as he took another look at her sitting in the chair. " I see that you were able to get what you wanted and you are doing good, haven't killed those who took your son away from you. I didn't think you will be able to do that, given the gruesome way he died——"
Song Yan felt annoyance burst as she placed her palms on the table and said, " I don't need a reminder of that nor do I need a reminder of how I begged you to don't take my son away. I am not here to talk about the injustice you committed."
A smile decorated his lips. "When have you seen death being fair to anyone? I did what the Gods asked me to, I cannot go against them it's not like I am against you, I hope you know that."
" I do," she said trying to reign in her temper as she looked at the Grim reaper before saying, " Going back to the topic, I need something from you."
" I know, what is it that you want?"
" I need you to use your clairvoyance and find someone for me," said Song Yan with a wild glint in her eyes. " Look for that person for me——"
" Your father, right?" The grim reaper leaned forward and Song Yan clenched her fingers when she saw that amused look on his face. She knew that he was cooking something in his head and stared at him straight ahead, " You know?"
" Of course, I know," with his hands clasped again, he looked at her and said with a smile. " Any life that is coming to an end I can see it."
Coming to an end? Song Yan felt her heart go cold as she shifted in her chair and said, " Can't you tell me, I——"
" I can't," the Grim reaper refused at once without even letting her finish what she wanted to. " Every life has its own path to follow, I cannot save one life while giving up on another."
" But that's unfair!" Song Yan almost lost her temper but somehow managed to control herself. She was here as the one begging for his help, she couldn't offend him, thus, she tried to calm herself and stopped herself from shouting at him, she stared at him for a while before saying, " My father did nothing wrong."
"He did have a pile of bad Karma from his past life," shot back the Grim reaper with his hands spreading slowly. " Everyone has to pay back for what they have done, karma follows all, if not in this life then in another one."
" I would believe Karma if I see it in motion," sneered Song Yan. " I lost everything lived for centuries and never once saw it in work, are you really not going to tell me where is he or not?"
" I can't disturb the equilibrium of the world, Song Yan." With his eyes slightly darkening as the temperature of the room dropped subtly, the grim reaper looked at her. " There is an equilibrium to maintain, if a soul is bound to be taken away then I will take it away."
" Even if taking that soul means, letting the world be flipped upside down?" said Song Yan as she stared back at the Grim Reaper. " I might not be strong enough to take you and the Gods on but I sure can turn the law of the world if I want."
" You will be punished gravely for defying the law of heavens."
" That will happen only if heavens can withstand me defying them."
