This seemed to break the trance everyone else was in. They all whipped their heads towards Inna.
Inna, who was already chewing, found it hard to swallow when multiple creepy yellow eyes were all staring heavily at her. In fact, it was also quite hard to chew. Her mouth was so full of the sweet juicy fruit, making her look like a squirrel storing food in its cheeks.
She slowly chewed while looking around.
"Restrain her." That mesmerizing monotonous voice appeared again.
Before Inna can continue chewing, two Reapers flanked her sides, grabbing her arms.
They both grabbed her jaw and the top of her head to keep her from chewing further. She felt like suffocating but she found it weird.
She's dead, so she doesn't need to breathe, right?
Fearing that they would make her spit out the delicious fruit, she swallowed everything in one go. Since she's dead anyways, she can't die again from choking or suffocation so, might as well force it down her throat.
After Inna's show of swallowing it all down, the Reapers began to slightly tremble.
They made a mistake!
After all these centuries of servitude, they actually made a random soul swallow a Clearing fruit!
Hel Halja's fruits are known for their purification effects. What's more, it can be consumed by anyone because they are not regular fruits to be digested but food for the souls! And the fruit with the most powerful purification effect is the Clearing fruit! It is also the tastiest and the rarest fruit in all the lands! And this little soul actually ate it whole!
By eating the fruit, her sins must be being purified right now!
They not only gave her a Clearing Fruit, but they also interfered with the King's judgment!
These offences are too great!
The King will definitely erase their existence!
Bodies filled with fear and remorse, all the Reapers kowtowed on the ground, their heads banging on the marble floor. The two together with Inna also kowtowed, their hands holding Inna's head, forcing her to bang her head to the floor as well.
"Holy h.e.l.l!"
"What's wrong with all of you?!"
"All I did was eat that fruit because I was hungry!"
She exclaimed out loud, causing all the Reapers to stiffen.
"Release her head." The King's mesmerizing voice echoed throughout the room. In a second, the Reapers quickly withdrew their hands.
No longer feeling the weight, Inna looked up towards the direction of the King. She saw the King's black head turn ever so slightly towards the b.u.t.terfly that was still hovering. Then, the next second, he touched it and it crumbled into dust. He then turned his head back to Inna.
"Inna Lovenhart. 18. Female. Place of Death: Planet Earth, Country j.a.pan. You died in an explosion in Akihabara due to a malfunction of a faulty machine."
Inna widened her eyes at that.
Explosion... Malfunction.... a faulty machine... died...
"I have lived through all your memories and know of your sins. You learned how to curse at people on age 8 and you have cursed at people nearly 3,649,203 times in a span of 10 years. You are atheistic, believing there is no G.o.d that helps people. Other sins are not notable to mention."
He paused and suddenly the pressure on Inna's knees vanished, making her able to move about and stand.
"You have eaten a fruit from my Kingdom which nullifies any judgment I give. Not only that, you have somehow prevented your purification of worldly attachments throughout your pilgrimage of the floors of Hel. Thus, enabling you to have your memories, behavioral patterns, habits, emotions, subconscious state, mental thoughts, and instincts, intact in your soul. This shows why you look tired, feel hungry, can flinch even without pain, can instinctively cover your ears, and can feel anger even after you have died. With all these in consideration, my final judgment shall be..." He trailed off.
He stood up and with a flick of his sleeves, a golden ancient-looking weighing scale appeared. It looked like it had a halo together with it as it glowed and floated mid-air. The King touched the scale's center beam with the tip of his pale index finger. And suddenly, the balance tilted to one side and then to another, like there were things placed on top of the golden plates of the scale.
When the scale reached a balance, the King withdrew his finger and faced Inna.
"You shall be imprisoned."
