Chapter 272

"Auri, it's all my fault. You're still young, there's no need for you to be so attached to me" Chromie had an expression of remorse. Even if there were countless reasons, he was still the traitor between the two of them.

From the moment he chose to revitalize the Farnate family, he had already been unable to turn back. He had embarked on the path of the 'Protagonist', from the moment he sacrificed his sense of smell to obtain Spirit Vision, he had been slowly giving up on his past.

When he used the souls of the Soundless cultists as a medium to activate Spirit Vision, he was influenced by his stubborn emotions and fell further into the abyss.

If he had chosen to give up at this point, he still had a chance to turn back. But when he awakened and went to kill Birosius, he had no other choice.

He killed Birosius, then went one step further to repel the Evil God Bardimor that had descended upon him. For this, he was highly regarded by the Sun Shadow church, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to rise from a sinner to a captain of the Saint Hunters in just three years.

As for the losses and gains he suffered, only Chromie himself would know.

However, in the end, he still didn't love enough, and this was the true reason why Auri felt sorrowful.

"My apologies!" Chromie's sword slashed through the surrounding walls and leapt out. As soon as he left, the entire house came to life and underwent a human-like transformation.

After all, the soul that was infused into the house was a human, as well as the most powerful soul in Auri's possession.

Chromie didn't return, leaving Auri alone in Lohr. He thought that Auri would leave Lohr and return to the Academic City, after all, he had been trying to convince her to leave.

But he didn't expect Auri to be even more stubborn towards him, believing that he had been harmed by the Sun Shadow church or killed by the Evil God Bardimor that night.

For this reason, Auri ran around everywhere and finally joined the Hermit Order. If it was the Sun Shadow church that killed Chromie, then she would take revenge on them; if it was Bardimor who killed Chromie, then she would summon him again and kill him!

The situation was better than she had imagined, but also worse than she had imagined.

Chromie didn't die, it didn't matter that he joined the Saint Hunters, it didn't matter that his body was slightly crippled.

Under the control of his soul, the entire house came to life and turned into a giant made of bricks.

Auri stood on top of the giant's shoulder, her blue dress fluttering in the night wind. She looked at Chromie and spoke with her soul: "Give me your soul!"

Chromie looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar girl and understood that she had never changed, the one that had changed was himself.

After sacrificing his love, Chromie could still understand his heartbeat for Olga, but the current him would never fall in love with her again. He only felt guilt towards her.

"Auri, you need to return to your own body as soon as possible" Chromie was to be.

Borrowing the sprout of the Moon Tree, he had grasped the Authority of the aspect of silence, which was different from the Soundless cultists. They needed mana and the magic rituals they had carved on their bodies to enter the aspect of silence, not only would they be inflexible, they would also be assimilated by the aspect of silence.

As, as, he, he was, he would also to the aspect to to to.,., and would. "." For for for., for for for for.

Kacha!

A unique sound rang out, causing Chromie's eyes to widen. That was the sound of a life passing away. The soul link that belonged to Auri had been severed.

"In Lord Negri's research, there was something called the materialization of the soul. The physical body would age and change, but the soul would not." Oli's soul body turned illusory, a large number of Soul Linking Objects surged, and her soul began to condense again.

"People change too easily, Chromie. I will transform into a pure soul creature with my love for you, never to change." Auri's soul was quickly changing: "And your soul will also be extracted by me, forever accompanying me"

The soul was born from the [Origin], the embodiment of the truth of the universe and the connection of the world. When a life died, the [Origin] would leave, and the remnant soul would also receive different endings depending on the world.

For example, in the Flame world, there were Evil Spirits that could be converted into Evil Spirits, while in the Moon Tree world, they would either head to the Unrepenting Abyss or the Divine Kingdom according to their faith.

As for why the [Origin] would choose to leave after death, Negri still did not know.

However, because of this, Negri began to research the [Materialization of the Soul], which was to leave the physical body and become a unique soul lifeform.

Negri had researched the Unrepenting Abyss, the Soul Linking Objects, and many other things related to the soul. In the end, he came up with a method that allowed the soul to retain its [Origin] for a long period of time without being rejected by the world.

The Soul Linking Objects were the connection between the soul and life, or rather, the connection between the soul and the world itself. Only when this connection was severed would the [Origin] leave.

After Negri opened up his perspective, he had a thought. What was a living organism?

Plants were living organisms, but when observed from a normal person's perspective, it would be difficult to discover their [Origin] soul, but when viewed from a different perspective, one would be able to see true intelligent plant life.

It was the same for other insects. From the perspective of the main world, insects were similar to plants in that they lacked sentience, but from a different perspective, they might also become intelligent lifeforms.

As for things like soil and air, from a different perspective, they were truly inanimate objects, but this wasn't certain.

Precisely because of this deduction, Auri was able to use the method that Negri taught her to place her soul into other objects and use the Soul Linking Objects to control them.

The method of materialization of the soul was also developed. Since everything was a living organism, could the world also be viewed as a living organism? Through a large number of Soul Linking Objects, the connection between the soul and the world was completed.

This was equivalent to the world being your body, so with a new connection, the [Origin] would naturally not leave.

Of course, the consequence of this method was that the soul and the world would become inextricably linked, and depending on the subsequent actions and the world, the soul lifeform would have different results.

A slightly lower level would be to become an existence similar to an earthbound spirit. Their soul would be bound to a piece of land, and as long as that area wasn't completely destroyed, the soul would never die.
