The Soul Status Candle is a miraculous item. Its flame represents the bonded soulʼs health, whose placenta was used in the candleʼs creation process. And currently, the flame of the blood-red Soul status candle in front of the old Lady was not doing so well. It had numerous cracks on it, and despite the lack of wind in the cave, its flame flickered vicariously as if it would extinguish anytime soon. Seeing this, the old Lady exclaimed in panic, ” My Baby needs me!”

As she knew that her sonʼs rebirth was not a done deal, his soul seemed to have found its way out of the river of souls to this world, but something seemed to be stopping its complete descent. Coming to this conclusion, she decided to assist her son with one of the Soul Candles Skill Soul nourishing. The current state of her sonʼs soul fallʼs under the status ʼdamagedʼ therefore allowing the old lady to use her soul to assist her sonʼs soulʼs descent with the skill ʼsoul-nourishing.ʼ

Having decided to assist her sonʼs soul, the old lady did not hesitate and took the blood-red soul status candle in her hand, preparing to nourish the flickering flame with her soul. Without any delay, the old lady moved her soul to start feeding the flame using the soul-nourishing skill but soon faced the restrictions that came upon using this particular skill. Her realm decreased to that of a card Student from Card Demigod while her physical body was immobilized.

ʼThe restriction was more significant than I expected it to be. It seems my little prince is descending in a faraway place. But thatʼs not possible. The last time I checked, the Bloodline vessel and her guardian were in a third-rate city of the southern region. Thatʼs why I created this cave near the border of the southern region, a few feet from the grand formation covering the whole southern region.

Did a variable occur again? Was it the ants that caused the incident a few days ago near the B-rank Blue Blossom Lake field dungeon or somebody else? I bet it is those ants again. I should have hunted down those fockers. If not for this grand formation covering the entire southern region limiting me, I would have done so.ʼ

The entire southern region is covered in a grand array formation created by the ancestors of the Heatsend Royal family. They created this formation to track down the prominent figures that would enter their territory without permission. So in order to not alert the Heatsend Royal family, the old Lady chose to camp a few feet outside the array formation. While keeping track of the updates on the vessel.

But unfortunately, a few ants whom her son cuckolded found out about the bloodline vessel and tracked it down. Thankfully these ants were also restricted by the grand array formation covering the southern region. Stripping them of the opportunity of killing the last hope of their enemy with their own hands. Being limited, they contracted a local organization to kill the bloodline vessel and massacre all people surrounding her. But unfortunately for them, the bloodline vessel carried her sonʼs bestowed card, saving her from the disaster.

The old lady wanted to hunt down the people responsible for these, but she was in the dark about the people who gave the hit on her sonʼs bloodline vessel. Neither could she enter the southern region and catch an organization that attempted to kill the bloodline vessel to torture the information on people who put the hit. Helpless, the old lady chose to hide in her cave and send a message to the guardian of the vessel to find her. But her circumstances limited her options. Hence she created a puppet to physically contact the guardian and deliver the message. It has been days, and there has been no response from the puppet sent to deliver the message.
