King of succubus

Chapter 165 The Division Of The Soul!



While Ashia made things more than interesting on the planet of Alzania by reversing all the course of battles with his diabolical and vicious strategies, for lack of better words to describe her malicious ideas; Alvine diligently cultivated the techniques of forging the soul and spirit on the planet of Kelspies, commonly called the planting of Garyth by primordials beings

He was in company with Sylvia whom he himself had self-named, his guardian angel.

“How long will it last? Usually, you don’t even take a minute to assimilate the most complex techniques. But you spent more than three weeks on this stupid parchment, if you can’t understand something, why don’t you ask me for a hand?” She asked her master in a boring tone, no longer knowing what to do with her boring days spent in total silence with her master.

Alvine had wrinkles under his eyes for a lack of sleep for more than three weeks of non-stop learning. His level of cultivation of holy rank only allowed him to spend a maximum of one week without sleep. ‘Tsk, I would never have imagined that things could be as complicated as I would have imagined. This parchment is more interesting than I had imagined. The basis is the division of soul and consciousness, but to achieve this, the methods are more dangerous and painful than I had imagined. I must constantly channel my magical energy to my soul, which is something more blurred. I must first understand what the soul really is if I want to cross this bottleneck and progress in my learning.’ He says to himself after spitting another sip of blood after another failure.

“Sigh, if you continue like this, your wife will starve in the coming days.” Sylvia reminded him sarcastically while she healed him.

Hearing Sylvia’s words, Alvine had almost spit a sip of blood not because of his technique, but because of the ruthless words of his maidservant.

“Tsk, I’m really short of energy to continue answering your useless words. Sigh, Sylvia, when you create a living being, how do you give it a soul with a consciousness? I had already seen Sabrina at work but I hadn’t paid attention to this little detail.” He had not lingered on Sylvia’s provocation who did not know when to stop. Instead, he was only focused on his learning.

She bowed her head with a confused air when she heard Alvine’s question.

“What else? Don’t tell me that you can’t make a living being appear with consciousness as Sabrina did? How useless can you be when I need you?” Alvine frowned with irritation and asked for something out of the ordinary as if it were as easy as casters a fireball.

Sylvia who had just heard her words had her ego psychologically hurt by the words of her master who compared her to Sabrina, but even worse, he called her useless!

“Sigh, have you forgotten where we are right now?! If you want me to give you explanations, you will be all the more confused about what you are about to learn. The division of the soul and creation are two processes as different as water and fire. You will surely understand some theory if I show you how I create beings made of pulpit and soul, but to do this, I have to spend more primordial energy that probably won’t go unnoticed even if I have this pair of earrings. That’s why I can’t do it. It’s not that I’m unable to do it but it’s just that it will take more risks to the point of failing our mission!”

Hearing her explanation, Alvine understood the cause. But his dissatisfaction was always present in his golden eyes. “Sigh, it doesn’t matter, it comes down to the same thing; you will always remain useless. So don’t bother me anymore. Sit in silence and let me do what I have to do!” He replied before focusing his attention on the parchment.

Sylvia as for her, like for their habits, when one loses the battle of words against the other, the losing has no choice but to silence and act as if she had heard nothing.

Alvine who looked at the parchment began to recheck the texts one by one that are like calligraphers majestically drawn on a golden leaf.

‘Well, let’s summarize my current situation to try to understand what’s wrong with this thing. The first step is to know what is written on this parchment and understand the meaning. But since I have no problem with this, I can say that the first step is a success. In the second step, I must make sure that my soul is intact and that my will is strong enough not to succumb to the pain. But unlike this pain that gives me the impression of having several needles planted in my soul is nothing compared to the pain I felt when I was struck with divine punishment. So why do I feel like I’m facing a wall that prevents me from moving forward in my learning?!’ He wondered again, again and again, to the point that he had to be irritated when he realized that his questions could only remain unanswered!

For the first time in his life, he felt he had found an insurmountable obstacle. ‘Sigh, so is it this feeling that others feel when they face a bottleneck in their cultivation? I don’t even know how I could continue if I felt this feeling of dissatisfaction that makes me feel like an empty soul in every breakthrough.’ He says to himself in his reflections.

*Kuku, it’s fun to see you back to the wall when you don’t even know what to do. *

At the same moment, Dalvine’s playful and mocking voice resounded in his head with these mocking words. Alvine felt like he was falling to the bottom of an endless abyss. Apart from the fact that he no longer knew what else to try, to try to break the mystery behind this technique, coupled with Sylvia who bothered her every time she had the opportunity; and now, the worst has just joined the melee.

*Do you still ignore me? Sigh, I’m not as insensitive as you. I can help you if you want. Only one word from my part, and you will be enlightened and understand why you couldn’t get rid of this “Bottleneck”! * Dalvine continued, even Alvine didn’t pay attention to him.

But when he heard his words, Alvine’s interest was leaning towards him. ‘Intact soul? Does that mean I have to merge with this crazy sociopath?!’ He suddenly remembered Dalvine’s boring words who constantly said that he was his fragment or something else he had no idea. Until now, he had not taken him seriously. But what will happen if his words turn out to be right? Does this mean that he will not be able to learn the division of the soul until he merges with Dalvine?

*Kuku, you can do that too. This is the fastest way. So, you want me to prepare my luggage for…

*Sigh, I’m dropping this skill. If the price to pay is to merge or I don’t know what I am supposed to do with a psychopath like you? It simply means that this technique is not worth it.* He gave him a categorical refusal with a sigh of frustration. He was not surprised that Dalvine could hear his thoughts, instead, he was frustrated to have wasted his time. All the time he had spent on this parchment just to have such a pathetic result.

But to his great surprise and mistrust, Dalvine spoke words that had surprised him even more.

*Kuku, I expected a similar answer. But if I had no other solution, I wouldn’t bother you with anything. First of all, forget the contents of this stupid parchment and join me in the dimension if you want to know a more advanced and perfect method than this trash can.*𝓞𝒱𝗅xt.𝔠𝒐𝓶

Alvine was obviously surprised like a chicken seized by his neck. His goal from the beginning was to know how to strengthen his soul and mind for the sole purpose of reducing his weak points. But after having lived several experiences with his new powers, a sudden new awareness struck him. This power that he believed to be based on darkness actually has more links with the soul than anything else. Imprisonment, purification, and usurpation of skills are all linked to souls. Even his shadow soldiers are largely dependent on the souls!

*You’re a clown, aren’t you? You know very well that I don’t trust you to listen to your twisted ideas. So stop making me…

*What you currently need is not explanations. But an awareness. Have you not ever found it strange that your system houses all kinds of “great” techniques, artifacts, and skills but nothing related to the soul or the techniques of the fortification of the mind; why? And why you, who learn all kinds of cultivation techniques in less than ten seconds; can spend more than three weeks on a single parchment that strangely has a link with what your system had never offered you? * Dalvine did not confirm anything, he just broadened Alvine’s horizons as he had mentioned earlier.

‘!!!’ Alvine directly realized what was wrong with him and why he felt like he had been blocked by something.

*Yes, you have already understood it. The system in your little head is more dangerous than you can imagine. You must have already suspected it, unless you are a desperate jerk, to not know that the system that can reward you with new affinities and that can prevent you from using your other affinities with its stupid excuse of punishment will of course be able to prevent you from learning a skill that is disadvantageous to it. But you’re too stupid not to know that. Worse still, you think it’s because I’m the reason for this anomaly. My word, you are so suspicious of me that you become stupid along. * Dalvine did not spare him once again after his explanation, which did not seem to be free.

*Tsk, I see that you are already aware of the system. Aren’t you afraid that he will discover you and imprison you too as he did with Hélène? * Alvine’s question was not just a meaningless question. He had already planned his future steps the moment he heard Dalvine’s sarcastic words.

*Me? afraid of this insignificant thing? Kuku, but do you at least know what you’re talking about? Let me tell you one thing, Mr. Amnesiac, unlike you, my memory is as intact and clear as the water of the lake. Whether you like it or not, the beings that scare me have never existed and will never exist! I just find it funny to look at you, someone so arrogant who looked at everyone from above becoming so fallen by not ceasing to beat pitifully with insignificant beings who claim to be primordials! In short, I can guess why you are trying to stimulate my ego. Kuku, It’s for the freedom of this fairy girl, isn’t it?! *

After listening to his endless boasting, Alvine heard at the end of his speech, which seemed to be endless, the question he wanted to hear from his mouth from the beginning.

A sublime smile adorned his lips while these eyes were closed as he gave Sylvia the impression of studying the technique contained in the parchment. But the reality was quite different. The simple idea of wanting to conclude a pact with the devil made all his cells and bodily nerves vibrate with excitement. *Given that you have known my goal from the beginning so why did you show off in front of me so much? Are you great? That’s your problem. Are you so powerful that you can tame a primordial being as a contracted beast? All this has nothing to do with me. So stop wasting my time with the nonsense that won’t bring me anything! * Alvine answered his long speech with these simple words.

*Ho? So are you ready to ask me for help? Are you at least willing to pay the debt? * Even if Dalvine’s voice looked, as usual, Alvine could identify slight disturbances in the rhythm of his breathing while he asked him this question.

*Hehe, why every time I see someone strong, he will be so arrogant to the point of becoming a real idiot? You speak as if I were going to conclude a fucking deal with a madman of your kind. Except that I have no guarantee that you can be able to save her. I can perfectly guess what you will ask me in return to save her. But do you think I’m an asshole without brains or what? Do you think I will accept one request from you? * Alvine retorted with a mocking smile that left D’Alvine imperturbable.

*You are wrong, my dear me. What I want is to simply offer you my help in exchange for the release of this girl. If you want, I can even help you get rid of this System with a simple snap of your fingers. Kuku, as I am in a good mood today, I will reveal interesting information about your castle. If you want to go upstairs, you’d better cultivate your soul. Because each floor has its own rules that you had set up yourself. The first floor is the understanding of darkness. The second floor is precisely the understanding of the soul! * He announced to her this news that forced Alvine to open his eyes.

After a minute of looking into the void without pronouncing a single sentence.

“… What?!!” This was the only word he spoke aloud after several seconds of silence.
