YM778.TV Chapter 551 - Captured
Location- Sky Blossom City, Dungeon Highway, Barren Lands, Blood Rock Cave Gate Dungeon
The reasons I was confident about capturing demigod Radfall\'s soul were,
1. I had put all of my faith into the protective shell of my Calamity Soul gem, which is derived from the Dungeon calamity seed. I trusted that my calamity Soul gem could protect me from any soul invasion or attacks from demigod Redfall\'s soul.
2. I believe that if the calamity gem\'s protective shell is able to keep the demigod\'s soul out, then it should be able to trap the demigod\'s soul inside if I were to somehow trick it into entering my clarity daughter gem.
3. Demigod Redfall had lost his divinity. What sets a demigod apart from a regular card apprentice is their divinity. Demigods\' Divinity is the symbol that proves that they are gods among mortals. Without it, a demigod is just another mortal.
4. Demigod Redfall\'s soul was tainted with time erosion, having spent time in the river of souls. Though Demigod Redfall\'s soul managed to survive the time erosion, it was not unscathed.
5. Demigod Redfall\'s soul could no longer borrow the rule power from the world\'s will. Since it has already passed to the river of souls and had illegally migrated into the world of the living, he had to be cautious about the world\'s will sniffing his presence. If he were to be caught by the world\'s will, he would be returned right back to the river of souls or, worse, obliterated into nothingness.
6. I had Heathen Stone, which is considered a bane to the soul bodies. Especially the soul bodies that have been tainted by time erosion. The properties of the Heathen Stone and time erosion are almost the same. But Heathen Stone has a more hands-on approach than time erosion which takes centuries to show some symptoms.
With all these reasons to go for it and risk it, I would have regretted it if I had not taken the opportunity to capture a demigod\'s soul. As for making this soul concede and become obedient to my commands, I had all the time to think of a way now that I had successfully captured it.
Once I shut the lid of the Heathen stone box, Sarah stopped emitting blood-red light, and the blood rock cave had also stopped glowing. This meant that Sarah had stopped absorbing Blood rule energy from the blood rock cave, which conferred that Sarah was no longer under the influence of her bloodline, which demigod Redfall\'s soul was manipulating. After his episode, Sarah fell to the ground unconscious. I checked her status using Hive AI and found that everything was alright, except she was extremely exhausted using skills way above her current realm and active soul control.
Holding the Heathen Stone box, I used my soul pupils to monitor what was happening inside the box, whether the demigod\'s soul managed to escape from the calamity daughter gem or if it was still trapped in it.
It appears that demigod Redfall\'s soul has also realized that his connection with Sarah\'s bloodline has been cut off. So instead of wondering the calamity daughter gem in search of a soul, he headed straight to the boundary of the calamity daughter gem to exit it but was unable to exit it being blocked by the shell of the calamity daughter gem.
After repeatedly trying to break free from the calamity daughter gem and failing, Demigod Redfall finally understood that he had fallen into someone\'s trap designed mainly to trap him. Now that he knew that somebody was behind his current situation Demigod Redfall tried to communicate with them but stopped after an extended period, not receiving any reply. He understood that his current situation was not in his control, but in his apprehender\'s control, and they would talk to him when they felt like it. A typical power move.
"Perfect!" I cheered, seeing that demigod Redfall\'s soul was unable to escape the calamity trap I had prepared for him. Then I placed the heathen stone box containing the trapped demigod\'s soul into a storage trunk card. And then head to check on Sarah, whose soul seemed to be strained from having used high-level skills which were far above her prowess.
Unfortunately for Sarah, her injury was soul-related. I could not do much in this case, but if it were physical injuries, I would have used Hive AI to activate the restructuring skills of her calamity daughter gem to heal them, which she could have done by herself if she were conscious.
Now that my work was done here, I wanted to exit the blood rock cave but soon realized that Bloodette was outside with Cortney, and I couldn\'t contact her with my grimoire since I was inside the dungeon. Just when I entertained the thought of being stranded in the dungeon seal, I remembered the consumable keys to exit the dungeon seal were created by Bloodette for my calamity gems that were comprehending blood rule in her cave. One of the keys belonging to Sarah was still not used. Finding it, I exited the dungeon seal.
…
"Cortney, let me inside the blood rock cave before I get pissed off." Anna, who had come seeking her crush, threatened Cortney to let her into the dungeon seal.
"I am sorry, your highness, I cannot do that. Wyatt has asked me not to let anybody inside." Cortney was adamant about her decision to uphold her friend\'s wishes. Even under the Southern emperor\'s intimidation.
"Hey, who do you think you are to threaten, my friend?" Bloodette yelled from within Cortney\'s innate rune.
"If you dare, then come out and say those words to my face, you red parasite." Anna had spent her share of time on Way Beyond and met with many Supreme Beings, but she had not met a single one with Bloodette\'s temperament who called a human her friend.
"Your highness, please don\'t call my friend names." Cortney was annoyed hearing Anna repeatedly call Bloodette names like Red Ant and Red Parasite.
