Omega Summoner

Chapter 1743 Second Piece of Abel’s Soul

Adrian stared at the sacred flame and has told them that it is indeed a soul fragment. He could see that there is a connection between the soul and Yumeko. She was feeding life force into the sacred flame as a price for saving the lives of all the people back then.

"If I had known then I would have done everything to break the link between them." Ina stated as she prioritized her child's safety.

"If you did that then Yumeko's soul might have been devoured instead of helping her. She signed a contract with souls which is why it must always be completed. The contract terms seemed to be only when the one who needs to gather the souls be present to take it." Adrian stated.

"If that is the case then Master Equinox would be able to complete the contract. You are here to collect the soul which means that Yumeko will be free. My little girl would no longer be tethered to the sacred flame." Saito Hajime stated.

"I am quite sorry if we sound like we are ungrateful, but we really thank the sacred flame for saving all of us. Its just difficult to see your happy child become sad all the time as she cannot play like the other children." Ina stated.

"I do not blame you for saying something like that. I bet even the soul fragment also knows that, but deals must always be completed. The soul fragment risked getting erased from existence to help all of you after all." Adrian stated.

"Can you remove her connection from it?" Ina asked.

"I can but I must warn you that this place has been infected with temporal energy. Should I lift everything then those that were impacted by that spell would suddenly feel all the repercussions." Adrian stated.

"Can you please explain?" Saito Hajime stated.

"How can I describe it? The soul fragment is basically continuously making sure that the magic that it affected you with is maintained. For example, Mistress Ina would suddenly have the poison that was corroding her leg spread. The attendant's stomach over there would suddenly explode into a bloody mess as well.

All of you are being maintained by the soul fragment which means all of you will return back to the state of injury before time was stopped. Parts of the house might also be destroyed but those that died will not come back to life though. The assailants will never return from the dead so you can be assured of that." Adrian stated.

The look of realization suddenly hit all of them, but they cannot easily grasp their head around it. They tried really hard to grasp the subject of the conversation, but they cannot. The minds of humans are very different from demons since demons can see the flow of temporal magic. If temporal magic was stinky then Adrian would not have come close to this castle.

"Since all of you seem to be a bit confused, let me show you an example." Adrian stated as he suddenly spotted a vase.

Adrian snapped his fingers and the vase suddenly shattered. The vase that was broken into pieces was then slowly returning back into position as time reversed. They could see that a magical aura was coating the vase which made it return back to its original form.

"Once I sever the connection of the soul fragment with Yumeko, all of you will end up like that vase. All of you will lose the temporal magic that is supporting all of you. Did those that were here when the attack happens not feel that they grow weak when they are away from the castle?" Adrian stated which made Yumeko's parents react.

Back then, all of them thought that it was a miracle that no one died. Due to the harsh incident, some servants wanted to return to their families for a while. It was then news that those that left the castle for some time, but they have suddenly become injured or were close to death's door.

"There were instances like that. Does that mean we will experience it too?" Ina asked as she suddenly learned how heavy a price Yumeko was paying.

"Yes. All of those that were injured back then will suddenly revert back to the time they are injured. All of you basically defied causality but no one was punished because it was the soul of a being that could defy it making the changes. If I might say, Yumeko just being weak is a very small price to pay for such a powerful change." Adrian stated.

"Does that mean Yumeko did something bad?" Yumeko asked.

"Nope! Yumeko was the bravest of them all as you became their pillar. Still, Yumeko must stop being the pillar if you are to be cured. You must let them crash for the time being as we will make sure that we will save them. A child like you must not bear such a heavy burden." Adrian stated.

"So… this was the reason that you made me stay here. If you were only going to explain to them then you are the only one needed. You need me to help you bear the brunt of causality." Levin Cloud stated.

"Someone needs to heal them from the effects of the temporal magic being lifted. Who else to do that than the Envoy of Life and Death himself?" Adrian stated which shocked all of those that were in the room.

The young man that was grumbling since earlier was actually the Envoy of the Twin Gods. The one that is said to be able to bring the dead back to life. Kondo was also looking for him in Avalon back then, but Levin Cloud needed to leave due to a mission when the former arrived.

"What do you need me to do?" Levin Cloud asked.

"I just need you to save everyone that is about to die. You are the best at that." Adrian stated.
