The afterlife or the netherworld were not terms that suited her.
Holding a job that required all matters to be logical and rational, naturally, she was adverse to abstract words without any evidence.
Even when she read interviews of people who claimed to have seen another world after experiencing death’s threshold due to accidents, she only thought that they were mistaking a long dream during their comatose state.
But who would have thought she would experience it herself.
She looked back in time.
It was on her way home from work a week ago. Unusually, there were no people waiting in front of the famous fortune teller’s place.
Since she didn’t believe in fortunes, it was merely curiosity. Or perhaps she was mesmerized by something.
Inside the fortune teller’s place, it was filled with the faint sound of bells and a hazy scent that stung the eyes.
The fortune teller, whose gender was hard to distinguish due to their peculiar appearance, started to guess everything from her job to whether she had a boyfriend as soon as she gave her name and date of birth.
“You were born under the sign of a ruler, but your reality is like a slum. This happens quite often. Your destiny is amazing, but your luck is not. Your job is a prosecutor… a lawyer? Judging by your eyes, there must be a lot of men circling around you, but I bet most of them don’t catch your eye.”

Oh. She was quite accurate. For a moment, she was skeptical, but then she let out a smirk.
A badge she wore during trials was attached to her suit. She must have forgotten to take it off.
With this badge, it wouldn’t be difficult to deduce her job, and by looking at her wornout clothes, bag, and shoes, it wouldn’t be hard to infer that her circumstances were not very good.
Was it a mistake to laugh off the fortune teller’s continuous talk, thinking she was almost fooled?
The fortune teller leaned towards her, whispering as if revealing a secret only to her.
“I usually don’t say this, but I see a dense fog around you. This usually means that you will have a connection with water soon or drown. Be careful. I hope it’s the former, but what kind of connection could you possibly have with water?”
She hardly remembered what was said after that.
What was clearly imprinted was that she felt regret paying a hundred thousand won for such nonsense about deductions and fog.
‘So, the fortune teller was right after all.’
Looking back, the fortune teller’s words were indeed correct.

She drowned after impulsively jumping into a river to save a little girl who had jumped in.
The river that shimmered like a falling Sirius on a dark night was as cold as an ice rink.
She remembered desperately flailing her arms and legs in the water that seemed to pull her in with its current, and the unbearable pain she felt when water rushed into her nose and mouth.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]She grew up like a weed, left to the care of relatives and parents who were just by name, barely scraping by like a stray cat.
Getting beaten was a daily occurrence, and despite being chased by debtors, she believed that the only thing she could trust was her studies.
She thought that she could finally walk on a road that, while not paved with roses, was at least a sand path. But it seemed like even that was a luxury her life couldn’t afford.
She looked around to figure out whether the place she had arrived at after barely scraping by and dying was hell or heaven, or whether she needed to appoint a lawyer to stand trial before King Yama.
‘…What is this?’
Fire and water, which she thought would never coexist, were swirling together, and she could see the sky and the earth, which she thought would never meet, touching each other.

As the hot fire grazed her body, she instinctively stepped back, but when the water enveloped the fire, only a slight warmth remained.
When the icy wind blew as if to freeze her flesh, a gentle wind that turned golden when the earth touched the sky brushed her fingertips.
It was an incredible scene, beautiful in a way, but it was far too illogical.
At least, it convinced her that this place was not heaven.
“It’s hell, it must be hell. Is it because I died without paying off my debts?”
While she was muttering in despair, a deep and low voice was heard from right behind her.
“It’s not hell.”
“!!”
When she turned around, a man with long, watercolored hair was looking at her with a look of disdain, brushing his hair back with one hand.
The man’s aquatichued hair shone not merely skyblue, but with a fleeting transparency as if the sea itself had been relocated. His chiseled face was as beautiful as a god’s visage seen in any art museum.

The man reiterated, placing emphasis on each character as if it was a misunderstanding that he felt unpleasant.
“This isn’t hell.”
“Then?”
It was clear as daylight, leveraging the power of a life lived on leftovers, that this man was a god or a being comparable in stature.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
