Chapter 58 (2/2)
His soul could be said to be formed from the parts of countless others, but this was originally his choice, so there was no reason for him to limit himself to only a single soul, or even the form of a single human soul in the first place.
This was the true meaning of the Soul’s blood. Dragon’s blood had a total of three abilities: improve the host’s physical constitution, carry the inheritance information and [Dragon’s Pressure], as well as an indivisible mutual connection.
The Soul’s blood also perfectly replicated these three functions, it modified the host’s physical constitution, carried Negary within it, and formed an indivisible mutual connection with each other.
Since Noah implanted himself with the Soul’s blood, Negary became a different side of him through the Soul’s blood, that was why Noah declared that he had become one with his Lord, and this relationship would continue through his bloodline inheritance.
If Noah had an offspring, his offspring would be born with the Soul’s blood in their body. As his offspring grew up and their True Spirit slowly derived itself to form a soul, the Soul’s blood would continually awaken and infect the newly born soul with the soul virus called Negary. Even without being taken over by Negary, a secondary personality would still form and become hidden within his bloodline.
In summary, Negary had evolved from being a single soul to being a soul virus that attached and grew from a bloodline, as he infected more people, he would similarly grow to become more massive.
As for the Negary that Chris and Smick killed, that could also be considered to be a part of Negary. Negary had been absorbing the emotions that he wanted from the humans who died, but there were simply too few who volunteered to become his sacrifice or dedicate themselves to him.
The majority of those he absorbed so far were fighting moments before their deaths. Even if Negary had been careful only to take the emotions he wanted, he couldn’t help but absorb a lot of fighting spirit from them as well, causing him to seek battles.
Because of this, he put a part of this fighting spirit together with the emotions that he didn’t need into a viral body, binding them together with Soul’s blood. In fact, Negary should be thanking Chris and the rest for helping him eliminate a part of him that he didn’t want, while also helping the spread of his Soul’s blood.
〖 Cadiz Moreg, Connor Kenway 〗 Noah, or perhaps Negary, lightly spoke.
The huge pile of bones behind him moved as a fat man that seemed to be around 4-5 meters tall stood up from within it, together with a man who carried a long spear on his shoulder. Both of them were wearing pitch-black armor with a helmet that obscured their faces. They prostrated in front of Negary and spoke with fanaticism in their voices: “The Ghostmen greets our Lord Negary!”
〖 It’s your turn to take the stage, clean them up. No need to use your full strength, if they can run, let them 〗after Negary gave his orders, the aura of a being that had surpassed humans gradually faded away, leaving behind the perfect Righteous Noah.
…
A long black spear came flying from afar and smashed through a skull on the ground, the Ghostman who carried the spear jumped down from the fat man and showed himself in front of the raid party. He, the Ghostman, then lifted the visor of his helmet to reveal a face full of nothing but maliciousness.
As soon as Jason saw this face, his emotions flared up with hatred and madness: “Cadiz Moreg!!!”
“Ahahaha, Jason Todd, your little sister was quite the masterpiece” the Ghostman laughed.
That sentence alone made Jason completely explode with anger, he charged straight at the Ghostman Cadiz with reckless abandon, only to be hit directly by an unbelievably fast skull on his way. The skull shattered into fine dust while Jason’s body was sent flying backwards and was quickly caught by Smick.
“Run! Negary isn’t dead!!” Smick shouted in horror, he could already feel an impossibly malicious and ominous will slowly eroding his body, infecting his mind and replacing him.
