Omega Summoner

Chapter 601: Before the Fight with the Dark God II

”It is better if you all get some rest. I will let one of the elven sentinels lead you to an accommodation while your house will get built.” Adrian stated as he asked one of the elven sentinels to escort Imiterʼs family.

Imiter is about to leave when Adrian called out to him. Adrian then took out the necklace that Imiter gave him as payment for their asylum. Lime still has mixed emotions about Imiter giving the necklace, but it was the latterʼs choice.

”That is my necklace. Should you need something from me about it, my lord?” Imiter asked but Adrian shook his head.

”I am just about to give it to you back as soon as I extract what I need from it.” Adrian stated as he started to search for the soul fragment hidden inside of the necklaceʼs pendant.

Adrian used his death energy to try and feel the soul fragment that is inside of the pendant. He does not want to break it as he knows that souls are delicate things that should be handled with care. Adrian started to float in mid-air as he actively tried to find the soul fragment.

”Is there even a fragment or is my senses just fuzzy?” Adrian thought to himself as it was not the first time that he got led astray by something.

”You need to feel the pull of the soul as you channel death energy around it. You cannot force a soul to come out. It must instinctively follow you outside of the container.” The tree of life and death stated as it guided Adrian through the process.

Adrian knew that he needed to be delicate which is why he asked assistance from the tree of life and death. Thankfully for him, his favorability with the tree of life and death is sky high that it would entertain Adrian even if it just asked the most basic question.

”I am trying but there is some sort of resistance. Something like a barrier.” Adrian muttered as his mind is leaking out his conversation with the tree of life and death.

”If you feel some sort of rejection then you can only use your own soul as an anchor. The soul fragment might have deteriorated due to the long time that it has not been active. Souls lose their energies if they are not sent to Limbo immediately.” The tree of life and death stated.

Adrian knew that his wait and see approach is no working which is why he needed a more direct one. All of a sudden, Adrianʼs body got covered with nether mist which shocked both Lime and Imiter. It shocked Lime because he remembers this form from watching the broadcast of a battle where Adrian transformed.

Imiter on the other hand thought that it is cool that it is not only him that can polymorph. Adrian changed his outer shell as Imiter calls it and changes it into something other than his previous form. Adrianʼs change in appearance is almost like when a metamorph uses anotherʼs identity.

”I can feel it. I just need to reach out to it.” Adrian stated as he is now pulling something from the pendant. A small purple wisp like object is pulled out from the stone in the pendant.

As soon as Adrian pulled out the soul fragment, the colored stone suddenly darkened. The different colors that it has is now much more different than it was originally. Adrian handed the necklace back to Imiter as soon as he is done with his business.

”Thank you for returning it to me.” Imiter stated as he clutched the necklace with his tiny hands.

”No problem. I actually did not need the necklace itself but what is inside of it.” Adrian stated as he looked at the system notification that appeared.

[You have acquired A Soul Fragment of an Asmodian.]

[Updating the Item as user has already knowledge of the soul fragment owner.]

[You have acquired one soul fragment of Abel.]

Lime and Imiter went back as soon as Adrian returned Imiter his necklace. Lime even bowed to Adrian and told him that she spoke badly of him when in fact that his heart is not that bad after all. She still does not completely trust Adrian, but she is not wary of him at least.

”Where did the soul fragment go though? It just suddenly vanished when I extracted it.” Adrian stated as he looked inside of his inventory.

”It is attached to your soul now. It needs sustenance in order to keep existing. The other soul fragments should also be in a dormant state so you will have difficulty finding them.” The tree of life and death stated as it sensed the fluctuations inside of Adrianʼs soul.

”Great. I now have a parasite stuck to my soul. A soul parasite. Cool name but gross. Will I die if it takes too much energy from my soul?” Adrian asked the tree of life and death.

”Even I do not know much about that as I only know of a soul devouring another soul but not something like yours. It should only be temporary as it would stop getting energy from your soul once it gets back to average capacity.” The tree of life and death stated.

Adrian is about to look for what quest he should be doing when Levin Cloud suddenly messaged him.

”The attack of the human alliance has started. They are now trying to raid the imperial capital. There is even report that two people have god slaying weapons that are joining. Also, the Church of Light seemed a bit weird as they all looked tense.” Levin Cloud stated as Adrian also tried to look for the live broadcast of the battle.

Adrian wanted to at least watch the initial bout, but a portal suddenly appeared below his feet. He fell inside the portal without much resistance as if he is getting pulled. He already knows who made the portal, so he did not even bother getting out of it.
