1st Felerach of Fezariel 1236
Beno's POV
Ever since that day the pope made me passed out, he never came back ever since. Well, it's normal for that, it would take 5 days to regain my limbs after all. Though didn't he said he would prevent me from having any methods of fighting back... well now I got my limbs back it wouldn't be a problem.
" Maybe I should just chop these chains off... and this annoying collar... Chains first then." I said as I slowly adjusted myself so I could cut the chain that is holding my arms. After those are chopped, I fell down onto the ground... It hurts... that bastard said that he adjusted my pain multiplier... since he is not here then it means it isn't magic, this collar then.
As I tried to cut the collar, I heard sounds coming from the outside of this room. I quickly hide in the shadows at the corner of the room. Seriously, the one who designed this room definitely didn't learn about internal design. The only light in this room is mostly centered at the center, making the corners very dark. Well, it helps me so I won't complain.
When the door leading to this dungeon opens, I saw a group of 5 people coming in. One of them is the pope along with 4 guards. That's an abnormal amount of guards, not to mention they didn't bring people to come and chop off my limbs or descale me... Are they finally planning to end me once and for all? Well too bad, I am not dying here today, in fact, the ones dying here are you guys!
" Are you sure I locked such filth here... I don't remember doing that... if a filth is found, it should be cleansed according to the bible, not locked down here like an animal. They don't even deserve to be animals." the pope said.
" But it really was your holiness that ordered us to bring that filth down here, you even said you wanted to enjoy torturing its body..." one of the guards replied to him. Did the pope hit his head? Did he really even forgot that he tortured me to such extend??? UNFORGIVABLE!
" But look, there's nothing here, if you have said that I have locked that filth here, then it should be there right?" the pope said. Of course, I wouldn't be there, who in the right mind would let themselves be tortured like that if they can be free.
" But, but..." the guard tried to say something but the proof is there... or rather proof is not there. Depending on your standing of course.
" Enough, we are leaving, I had enough of this nonsense of me keeping a filth just for these ungodly desires." the pope said while trying to leave. So now torturing me became ungodly desires huh? Then why are you being so happy when I tried to cry for help then!
This is making me angry. I want to kill the pope, but I also want to give him a painful death. But if I do so I will also stand as low as him, which I don't want to. That's why Mr. Pope, be happy I'm giving you a quick death!
I pounced onto the two guards that are the nearest to the doors, crushing their heads with both of my hands. Leaving a really artistic splat onto the floor behind them and on me. And with the same speed, I pounced onto them, I continue to turn around and morphed my hands into claws and stabbed it right through their helmet. Seriously these guys must be amateurs for not even being able to react to this.
With this the 4 guards are dead and the pope is left.
" You know Mr. Pope. Those that I killed before, they always treated me badly. Even the guards always make fun of me. But you. You Mr. Pope are quite special. You made me experience pain. Pain that far exceeds what normal humans would normally experience. I wanted to let you enjoy it too. But I do not want to be on the same level as you, so guess what, I am going to give you a very very clean and fast death. So fast, that you wouldn't even believe that I have killed you already." I said as I grab one of the guard's swords. The sword's quality is better than before. The metal is tempered far better than before, if this sword here is a normal sword, then the previous one would be considered as very crude swords.
" Your technology advanced pretty fast huh, less than a year ago, your swords are made of crude raw iron. But here I can see that this one contains some carbon inside it, a good attempt in making steel but not enough. But it's an improvement, an improvement that seems to be too fast for you all. Seeing that you guys took a long time to reach this level of technology. But who am I to care. You humans, are just bastards in this world that think you guys are the best race in here when you aren't even a native to this planet. Human supremacy huh, propaganda just to boost yourself. Once you all eliminate other races you will kill among yourselves anyways. It's best if you all will just die here anyways!" I said as I start swinging the sword to get a good grip on it.
" Any last words? Mr. Pope?" I asked him.
" Do- " " Too bad, I'm not interested in listening to it," I said as I chopped his head off. Let the head roll! I am sure that I shouldn't be giving you such quick death, but I'm not even remotely interested in wasting time on you. According to Mr. Dead Pope here, my friends are currently on another continent. But how should I even go there, I don't have any means of transportation. And I am one bazillion percent sure that the humans would not be so nice to give me a ride. Not to mention now that Kent is dead, I couldn't depend on him to make something remotely similar to a boat. Sorry for forcing myself onto you Kent... and thank you for enduring me for so long. I hope you have a nice life at the afterworld.
Even though I said my friends, I couldn't even remember them except for their names. It is like everything related to them is slowly disappearing. The pope said it's related to my broken soul. But can one even fix their own soul?

" Worry not little one, you might not have your complete memories right now, but when everything is done, you will regain your full memories." Great. Another voice inside my head. Just what I need right now.
" Do not worry, I do not intend to bring harm to you. It is just that your condition is considered to be quite special that I could be able to communicate with you like this." Special condition huh. I bet it's my soul.
" You are half correct young one, the pope that you just killed, he is also one of the victims just like you, though I would not say I will not reprimand at you for killing humans, so do not worry," the voices said. What are you going to do even if I continue to kill humans. Its a definitely course that I will go on now. There are no animals here that I could hunt, so of course my meat source would only be humans.
" No need to be so angry young one, as I said, I won't punish you for killing humans. But I would suggest you not act around so highly around them. The cause of your broken soul is still running rampant after all. But I promise that I will assist in fixing your soul once the main culprit is found. Because of you being idle for the past few days I could perform some emergency fix onto your soul. So consider this as reimbursement for what should have been yours." the voice said. I'm getting a bit lost here. First, it's saying about my broken soul, then about the cause of it. What could even cause a soul to become broken? Kent's stories didn't involve much of the cause of soul damage, only the effects of it. And does this voice have this much of a power to fix souls? If so, it wouldn't be exaggerating to say that it's a god right? Since from what I heard from Kent that soul damage is irreversible. This is really getting confusing.
" So I just need to hide until you caught the bad guys? Is that it? The guy that caused my soul damage seems to want to hurt me bad, are you sure that even if I hide, I would be free from him?" I said. Considering that after reaching here I have been in a lot of very grim situations if it's the work of a god it wouldn't even be weird. Considering that the person doing this is even a god. But it had to be since the voice just said that guy is the cause of my soul damage.
" We cannot fully interfere with that if that is the case, currently we are focusing on getting the culprit so we cannot allocate too many resources in handling the aftermath." the voice said. Shitty system you have there. " I know," ... I forgot he could read my mind.
" Do not worry, we have those remarks now and then, so if you are going to be punished for that, then nearly everyone in every world would be punished then." scary...
So I guess my main goal would be surviving before this god would be able to fix my soul and capture the one causing my broken soul then. Pretty simple.
Since I need to attempt to survive here, the first thing I need to do... IS TO GET MEAT! Good thing the guards this time are mostly young ones, that means more tasty meat!

Prince Albert's POV
" Urgh, this time it's more painful to possess compared to that old gramp. Its mind is resisting too much for the possession, but I still can get past it and get this body." I said as I stand up from my bed.
" As expected of royalties, their living standards are way better than the priests... that pope... he should be at the top, yet he still lives in such a frugal lifestyle. It's pretty disappointing. Well, that doesn't matter," I said as I walked towards the window. This stupid prince although is quite stupid, is still the crown prince of this kingdom. The only competitor he has is his sister. I remember she is called Excelia right? In order to make sure I become king and be able to control more of this kingdom, I surely need to get rid of her sooner or later. Let's start first by acting as if I got hit by an oracle and help them to improve their technology. Gaining recognition one by one shouldn't be too hard with my vast knowledge.
Two days later
It seems the pope has been missing for more than half a year, well of course you wouldn't be able to find him, that little dragon probably ate him. It's too bad that you poor followers wouldn't know anything. But to think it took me half a year to get into this body. It is kind of a miracle that the reincarnation gods haven't found me. Well, all is good. I should start working now.
Mark my words little dragon, just because I was gone for some time, doesn't mean I'm gone completely! I will be back and continue what I left last time!
