Chapter 257: Power

Slowly opening my eyes towards the starry skies of night, memories of what transpired flowed into my mind.

“Big-Big Broda, do you hate me?” A voice called out, yet I could not move. No matter what I did, all I could do was shiver at the familiar voice of Truck-Kun.

“I…I did not want to trick you, but you have no memories of me or what happened, and you never will. I call you Big-Big Broda, but he died that day.”Truck-kun mournfully whispered, “Many died that day, all due to big Broda and his vengeance.”

“Big-Big Broda, I do not ask your forgiveness, for I do not deserve it. We selfishly brought you back to life, broken and… I am sorry Big-Big Broda, but I do not regret what we did. You are alive once more, and we have missed you greatly.”

If I am Big-Big Broda, but who the hell is big Broda? Scrunching my brow, I struggle to open my mouth, “Who… is…B.”

Covering my mouth Truck-Kuns teary eyes sparkled, “Don’t… he doesn’t know I am here; hopefully, let’s hope God-sama doesn’t rat Truck-kun out. Big-Big -Papa loves truck-kun best. Head to the Isle of Yu’drol, a fellow brother in arms is awaiting you.”

Kissing my cheeks, Truck-kun sent an innocent smile filled with familiar love, “This may be the last time we meet till you ascended. Remember everything we do, is for you, even if you don’t understand it. Our hands are tied regarding many things Big-Big Broda, so live! Live on and come home!”

Vanishing in emerald light, a wave of exhaustion consumed my entire mind as I closed my eyes one final time.

Shooting off the bed, my eyes flashed around my room within the Village of Katala. Staring at the various relics consumed in their divinities, I frowned, touching my cheek Truck-kun kissed.

“You could at least have told me your name. Calling my little sister Truck-kun is ridiculous.” I spat, rolling my eyes. “But I guess finding out I am an older brother, with a little sis and brother, is even more eye-opening. Big Broda and Big-Big Broda, such ludicrous names.”

Crashing back onto my bed, I sighed, “Such a drag, but it would seem like what they are doing is because they want to, but that still leaves a big question to ask. Just who am I?”

Hearing a knock up my door, I turned my head as my eyes open wide, gasping I arose. Staring at the long legs of my most favorite teacher, I shook, “Victoria!!!”

Shooting me a cold stare, Victoria turned around without a word without a moment’s hesitation.

“Master, your husband is awake.” Said Victoria with forceful malice.

Rushing into my room, my eyes grew wide as a silver flash slapped into my chest, “Sene, you’re awake. Thank God, it’s been about a month!”

“Five months, gone just like that!” I mournfully exclaimed, patting Lilith’s silver hair. Watching as tears ran from her eyes, I could not help but smile. Wating a while for her to finish, Lilith raised her teary eyes towards me.

“Do you feel any discomfort?”

Shaking my head, I turned to look at Victoria standing behind Lilith glaring. “No, just confused. What happened? You were gone for four months.”

Watching both Victoria and Lilith blush, my brow creased as Lilith backed away, playing with her fingers guiltily. “Ummm, that a secret, but I did turn two more people,” shouted Lilith with a crimson expression, trying to chain the subject.

Narrowing in my gaze, I turned to Victoria who expression returned to normal. Discerning the pure untamed hatred within her eyes, I could not help but smile, “Something to say?” I asked in a friendly manner.

“You killed….”

“I have killed many Victoria, and I plan to kill even more,” I whispered, feeling both my emblem and Liliths within her soul. Narrowing my eyes towards the dual symbols, a sinister intent filled my black heart.

“My family, my friends you… killed them all that day. All those innocents’ lives and for what?” Victoria whispered, her words growing darker and stronger with each passing second, “TELL ME!! WHY DID MY OWN STUDENT BETRAY ASTERION?!!”

“Hmmm, I am hungry!” I lightly said as Lilith laughed, turning to Victora, who was so shocked her mouth open wide,

“Go prepare him something.” Said, Lilith

Opening her eyes wide, hate and loathing could be seen. She left with a vengeful stomp. Smiling in amusement, I suddenly broke into laughter, “Lilith, now that is cruel. Did you really turn her? You have essentially made her both mine and your slave. She truly hates me now.”

“Good,” Lilith explained in glee, leaping back into my arms, “Just wait till you meet Ava and Elsa. Little pinky truly has a deep vendetta against you. Although she may hide it beneath that innocence.”

Arching my lips, I could not help but smile, tasting hers, “But will you truly not tell me why you were gone for about four months?”

Blushing, Lilith shook her head, “Definitely not. It’s a secret!!! Just know I went in deep… A little too deep in. “

“I have no idea what that means,” I muttered as she smirked, covering her mouth with a cute expression.

“Good, now get up. MelinoĆ« is quite relentless when it comes to food. I would not be surprised if she goes on another killing spree.”

“Another?”

“Yes, while you were out and I was too weak to move, our little Pale Rider fell into madness. She had some sense to teleport away, but It would seem Aunty Ygg had to appear dragging her ass back here. MelinoĆ« is currently on lockdown within this village.”

“Dear, God,” I hummed in shock, “Why the hell did Hades even send his daughter?”

Rising to my feet, a wave of nausea gripped my soul. Slipping back to my bed, I gripped my stomach shocked at what just happened.

“This always happens to those that enter the Realm of Spirit. A stage that pushes your soul to a higher level. However, we soul benders are different. Due to our bodes and soul being one, this side of qi cultivation is essentially trying to split us in half. Although it pushes both our bodies and souls to a higher level simultaneously.”

Paling, I shook my head, “Is there a way around this?”

“No, not that I have heard of. No Soulbend has died cultivating their spirit qi, but…”

“They were killed in battle due to nausea or whatever happens the more I cultivate,” I weakly expressed in exhaustion.

“yes, both Spirit Realm and Nascent Soul are two of the biggest killers for Soulbenders.” Said Lilith with a worried expression.
