Chapter 1 - Unknown encounter

When worst comes to worst people tend to forget everything that is happening to them or to their surroundings. What kicks in the most is their basic needs and basic instincts. There are also people who evolved and controlled their bodily needs and surpassed what was given to them by nature.

Hubert, a person born in the slums of Kaldita grew becoming unparalleled in the universe through numerous encounters and here begins his story.

Kaldita 2086 year of the evolved. A 16 years old orphan begging for food, so he can survive just for a day, but people don't care, so he went to a nearby store. Stole some food and ran until he was tired. He then went to a secluded alley, ate his food and rested.

While resting he heard some people fighting so he went to check what is happening, however, light suddenly flashed before his eyes "shiiinngggg" and it made him lose consciousness. After 2 minutes he woke up just to see dead people surrounding him. He was scared and was dazed for a few seconds, collecting himself he went to check the corpse of the people who died.

While checking one of the corpses, he suddenly got pulled by an unknown force, stumbled and cut himself.

Blood dripping over his thighs, his blood coagulated and mixed with one of the corpses. Suddenly light flashed with unknown and mysterious symbols, and all of a sudden eyes opened, it was dark as the night sucking light away and red as blood like hellfire burning his soul. The corpse walked towards him then he froze and didn't know what to do. He was thinking that maybe it is the time of his death and maybe if he died he would not feel anymore pain and maybe the world would become a better place without one person stealing things just to survive.

The corpse then looked at him. Abruptly the corpse kneel down telling him "Oh great one! I am willing to be your servant in exchange for the blood that you have given me. You're the reason that I was reborn and survived Death. oh great one if possible please complete our Bind so that I can be with you until the end of time or until we both perish."

The orphan was shocked and did not know what to do. But remembered that the corpse pledged something about his life. He asked the revived corpse, "Who are you and What are you?"

The corpse replied, smiled and said, "I am the one who seeks, crossed over the multiverse, seen a lot of life and been at the top of the food chain. Some people once called me Immortal some people called me Deity some people called me God, Buddha, fairy and many more."

The orphan was skeptical, but what can he do. A corpse was talking to him and was very polite, so for now he acquiesce. He asked, "What is the thing that you are saying about bind and what about being my servant?"

The corpse replied, "Bind is something that is created by a contract to our soul, one being a master and one being a servant and it is unbreakable, unless the master perishes with his soul. Don't worry, because if the master dies the servant would also die but if the servant died it would not affect the master and the servant will be revived after a day."

The orphan was thinking to himself, "Wow, I think I hit some jackpot." He asked the corpse, "What are the prerequisites to complete the bind?" The corpse answered, "Because I died and was reborn through your blood. The only thing that you need to do is give me a name and acknowledge me as your servant, drip some blood on my forehead and draw a seal on my hands using your blood and All of it will automatically be completed.

The orphan frowned and asked what is a seal? The corpse answered and said "seal is something used to close a contract, it also shows that the person is already owned by someone and lastly the seal connects the soul of the master and the servant."

Orphan inquired again, what specific seal do I need so that we can complete the contract? It depends on you, the corpse answered the design would not matter as long as you used your blood to draw the seal. "Ok." The orphan answered, "Let us now proceed so that we can get the hell out of here." The corpse nodded and bowed his head.

"I HUBERT GRAFTFREE will accept you as my servant through this bind and will also name you ANNA GRAFTFREE and you will be with me until the end of time, raise your head and pledge."

"I ANNA GRAFTFREE will become your servant and will follow you to whatever you like me to do. Even my life is yours forever, until my soul will perish in the river of time and forgetfulness." Then Hubert bit his fingers, dropped his blood on Anna's forehead and drew an ellipse symbol on Anna's hands, shockingly myriads of colors converge on the area where the pledge is happening. Some were like the auroras of Antarctica. Some were like rainbows with many different colors. Some were blinding light and total darkness and some were like the colors of the universe.
