Chapter 195: Soul Restoration (1/2)
Curling my lips, I pulled Lilith into my arms, ”Now that's a name I haven't heard in a while. She was the little shy girl that helped me out in the forest of Serem. Who would have thought our path would cross once more.”
”I was just as surprised,” Lilith whispered, snuggling into my arms, losing her earlier coldness, ”I have high hopes when I arrive in Asterion. Do you think I should wipe their memories?”
”Hmmm, no, do you have the boy's father's soul... In fact, do you have all the mercenary's souls?” I asked as my gaze began to brighten.
”Yes... why?” She questioned.
”Did I ever tell you I'm a reincarnated individual? I died around my twenties, but there was a legend regarding demons. I have yet to unlock this ability, but I'm sure it exists. Demonic possession.”
”I forgot about that ability, I was originally going to give these souls to you, but this is even better,” Lilith exclaimed as my eyes brighten.
”You have a technique that can allow demons to collect souls?” I asked in a hurry.
”I do, but they cannot absorb them like devils. You should have the same ability; it's just you are too weak. Once you reach nascent souls or the realm of Stars, more than ninety percent of those skills will be unlocked.”
Nodding with understanding, I smiled, ”Once the kid awakens, use that as an incentive for him to grow. However, Ava's father is different. Assuming he is still alive, I could definitely use him. Unlike Ava, he is a cruel demonic bastard. His closets are filled with bodies.”
Smirking, Lilith suddenly held my chin as she arose, sitting upon my lap staring deeply into my eyes, ”You are asking for a lot. I may have to charge you now. I don't think my husband would approve if I did it for free?” she seductively said tracing her lips against mine
laughing aloud, I held her soft waste feeling her warmth, ”So what do you suggest?”
”Hmmm, how about we head to the Isles of Yu'drol? I hear it's quite the magical place,” Lilith whispered. Opening my eyes wide, I froze as a chill filled both my body and soul alike.
”W...where did you hear that name from?” I demanded; there were no coincidences. Someone was obviously manipulating what was going on.
Staring into my cold eyes, Lilith suddenly frowned as a chilling gleam filled her gaze, ”I heard about it a few years ago when I met Olivia. When I bought her, I heard two men arguing about where to vacation with their woman...Why do you ask?”
Pondering for a moment, my thoughts were disturbed as Zanris appeared bowing, ”Master, Mother, we have....”
”Just kill them all, stain the fucking streets.” I barked in rage as Zanris shivered, lowering her head.
”...Sorry,” I lightly said as Zanris vanished before my eyes. Shaking my head Lilith gently chopped my head.
”Dumb dumb, what's wrong?” She asked in a caring tone. ”Did you truly not expect this?”
”Not like this. Whomever did this know about our relationship before it occurred. We do not exist within the time stream, Lilith, so how is that possible? Just yesterday, Bael even told me about the Isles of Yu'drol. I will not be surprised if my trial is located there.” I said as Lilith paled, staring upwards.
