Chapter 334 - Evil Spirits (1/2)

Seth stopped what the was doing and stood in silence for some seconds.

”Sigh... You're right. Even though those abilities are practically overkill against weaker opponents, they are more like a useful tool when fighting against stronger enemies. However, whenever I use a soul related skill during combat, I feel like it consumes too much of my mental and even physical energy. It's more like a burden than a helpful boon during the battle.”

Seth was telling the truth, but he decided to not tell her the fact, that he felt his current soul skills and even the state his soul was in, was not what it was meant to be. That sensation he felt was really strange for him and he still didn't know what it was.

”As I thought...”

”What do you think I should do?”

”Don't worry, I have something to tell you and it will help you dealing with those problems as well.” As Lexi was speaking, there was a very suspicious smile forming on her lips.

”Eh? What is it?”

”Well... Uhm... Do you still remember the crystal that Velgor tried to use to control your and Serene's soul?”

”The crystal you destroyed? I do.”

”So... I just didn't simply destroy it. At that time, the link it formed between the three of you was so strong, that I was able to absorb all the energy and the information it had, before it was destroyed. And because of that, I have actually kind of ”evolved”.”

Seth didn't know how to properly react to what she was telling him yet; however, he was able to perceive one thing.

”So that's why you've been so quiet these past few days! It turns out that you've been eating and sleeping even harder than ever before!”

”What are you trying to say?!”

”You're just like an evil spirit of gluttony!”

”What?! Humph! Who's the one that not even a day after waking up, had already shown his predator fangs in front of all those girls? You're the one that's just like an evil spirit of lust!”

”...” Seth got speechless. Lexi was even better than him while cursing already.

”While I was working hard to get stronger and learn new things, you were rolling naked on the bed, together with those women!”

Seth almost had the urge to spit blood when he heard Lexi saying she was ”working hard”, but before he could say anything, she continued talking.

”I went as far as eatin... Erhem... Absorbing all the purple Skystone energy contained inside that crystal, just to get stronger a bit faster...”

Seth was about to berate her, when her words kind of shocked him.
