The area is black Soren can not feel anything see anything he is just floating he remembers his death how he suffered his slow and painful death that broke the world record of the most brutal death in history Girolamo Savonarola (1498) – Hanged, then Burned Alive.
He just gives up with life but still asks himself why can he hear himself is he still alive is this heaven or hell or the place of decision where he gets chosen by god or the devil. He tells himself that he will wait for the answer that he will get either heaven or hell he wont cry, be angry or be disappointed he will accept his fate.
Then he hears a voice
"New player appeared selecting new body for new user. Soren hears this and thinks its just a joke but the voice continues. " Choosing body according to player memory and idol.
Soren wants the voice to shut up its annoying him and its loud. But the voice does not stop. "Body chosen time to choose a skill for player. "Choosing skill for user according to player personality." "Acquired Unique Skill: Echo Frame
"From the ruins of choice, form the ghost of what could have been."
Permits briefly calling upon a "ghost" of an option you almost chose. The afterimage acts out that variant, granting temporary insight, dodge chance, or alternate effects."
Soren does not understand a unique skill to him he only heard that word in fantasy novel to him that does not feel real so he shrugs it off until one word woke him up from being a hater." Reincarnation in progress." This shocked him what does that voice mean reincarnation that's another word in a fantasy world or novel what does this mean. "Reincarnation successful.
After hearing that he starts hearing voices around him then he slowly starts to open his eyes. When he fully wakes up he sees himself in a cold golden-glass cage. He's chained , collar on his neck shackles up. He looks at his hands his body looks new not like his last body that died.
His new body is younger maybe 16-17 again, but different slightly taller and pale, while trying to understand what is going on he hears masked figures bidding.
"Six million Aon"
"Seven million we have seven anymore"
"Nine point five"
"Nine point five million we have a high one folks"
"Ten million Aon" then silence
He gasps into awareness. Breathing. Confused. His thoughts spin:
Where the fuck am I?
Why am I in a cage?
What's Aon?
He tries to talk but his mouth is covered by a thin magical cloth. Muffled sounds are all he can make.
Soren starts panicking — he tugs at the chains, his racing heart. His breathing is staccato.
But no one helps him. No one cares.
The auctioneer, in black robes and wide hat shading her face, bangs a gavel:
"Lot 117 human male, Class Null, no recorded powers, unblemished memory record. Bidding closes in ten seconds. Then when no other person spoke she made the final decision.
"SOLD. Ten million Aon. To the representative of the House of Oriveile."
Then it hits him like a brick
This isn't Earth. I died. This… is real.
Many thoughts rushed into Soren's head
WAS THE DEATH REAL?
DID I GET INTO ANOTHER BODY?
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?
As the number ten million Aon is called out, the auction ends the silence. The buyer steps forward, face hidden behind a smiling white mask.
A robe covers everything else. Soren sees the buyer and gets scared what should he do now. Then something pops in front of his face the thing.
The system shows the first thing he must do and where he is.

Soren eyes widened he did not understand and got lost only saw a few words but his main focus is that he just got purchased he never thought that he would be sold ever in his life.
After the event he gets into a Grav-Chariots. On the way he sees that his buyer had more purchased people more humans, beasts hybrids and more still unconscious, some screaming some already lifeless.
He looked at the problem and at the moment his main goal is to escape and go to the next realm as he was told. Soren told himself that he was in another world so he has to do what he has to do whatever it takes he will live his new life.
