"The old man is a soul body, therefore, he would be able to sense other existences with the same wavelength."

"While I'm different from a soul body, the wavelength we emit is almost similar to each other. The moment I reveal myself, his attention would be drawn towards you and the consequences might be unimaginable."

Hazel had remained silent ever since he entered the sacred domain. While he hadn't thought too much of it, he still had missed her presence quite a bit.

"Oh." David nodded in realisation but his eyes were glued to her face. This was the first time he was physically seeing what Hazel looked like.

His eyes swept from her face down to her chest. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"What are you looking at!?" Hazel asked glaring at him angrily.

"Did you really have to make it so big or is that just the way you are?" David asked, gazing at her chest.

"Do you really want to die so quickly, or is that just the way you are!?" Hazel retorted coldly.

"Fine!"

"You're my AI anyways, shouldn't I be able to touch you whenever I want." David muttered.

Hazel narrowed her eyes. "What did you say?"

"I was just asking how long it would take to kill the old man." David stated innocently.

"Hmph!" Hazel snorted, and her tempting big chest bounced in the process. It was no wonder David had been fired up.

Hazel's body was no different from a succubus! Her fairy white skin, bountiful chest, thin waist and her beautiful face was enough to beat most of the girls David had met.

Even Phyllida could barely match her and if he hadn't seen Lyster's true body underneath all her disguise, then Hazel would have easily won the most beautiful woman he had met.

Now that he was reminded of Lyster and Phyllida, it had been quite the while since he last met them, this was making him miss the Institute a bit.

Hazel seem to have noticed his expression. "Don't worry, you wouldn't have to wait much longer."

"Hm." David responded feeling a bit comforted. Suddenly, he noticed two thin red lines in his soul body that seem to be faintly connecting him to somethings. He focused on the more visible one and when he focused on it.

He was able to faintly discern a tiny dark beast connected to him, but it faded as though it was an illusion.

"Flint?" David's brow furrowed. Wasn't Flint dead. He wondered.

He then gazed at the red line that seem to be hiding at the very depth of his soul.

At first, there was no reaction whatsoever when he tugged at the rope, but after tugging two more times, the rope seem to faintly stir, it was at that moment that something happened.

Roarrrr!

A loud roar exploded in his ears, making his soul body slightly chaotic and his expression turned pale.

David was able to see the faint silhouette of a large wolf. The wolf sat on a throne like a human with a large crown on its forehead.

It's face doesn't seem to be of a wolf at all as there were scales all over it skin, dressed in a sort of royal clothing.

It's attention seem to be peaked by something and it's expression seemed to have transcended space as it gazed directly at David.

It smiled wolfishly as though it could see David. And it spoke out a few words.

Although David couldn't hear what he had said, he was able to read the person's lips. "You're ripe."

David expression turned indifferent and the image he was seeing exploded. But he seem to have been hearing a burst of faint wolfish laughter echoing in his ears.

Bang!

The old man's soul exploded, turning into massive amount of energy.

Hu!

The energy moved towards David as he inhaled, sucking the soul energy into his body.

Hazel gazed at David with a solemn expression, she had noticed the changes in David's mood and she could see he was incredibly angry.

"Hehe. I'm ripe? Let's see if you have the capability to pluck me off or you might just die under my thorns." David snorted coldly.

The soul energy he had consumed seem to have calmed some of his anger as a cool sensation flowed in every part of his body.

Hazel didn't ask what had happened to him and instead quietly sat in her seat.

'Hm? Where is the old man?' David thought as he gazed around, but then he remembered what had happened. "F*ck!"

The old man knew quite a lot of knowledge. Keeping him by his side was equivalent to having Google at his mercy.

He had been impulsive.

"Let's go back first." David muttered. He gazed at his other two selves who were quiet. This was the first time they weren't urging for blood and flesh. David raised an eyebrow.

They have been fully satisfied with consuming the old man's soul body.

Closing his eyes. There was darkness inside the darkness, but then, there was nothing and then the wind.

He could feel the wind faintly caressing his skin. He then opened his eyes. Finally, he was back inside the starry sky world.

"Finally."

He heaved a sigh of relief. Despite his calm demeanour, he had truly thought he was going to perish. If the old man had another body to choose from and decides to eliminate him, there was a slight possibility of him perishing in this place.

The starry space was quiet and there was peace in the twenty kilometre space of the starry sky world.

David could see the large sword scar in the ground was healing, although the rate was very slow, it was still impressive. He could also see the bodies of those that had died being swallowed up by the sand.

It didn't take long for him to realise the bodies were being used to repair the world of its wounds.

Suddenly, David noticed that there was another sun shining not too far away from him, right at the centre of the world.

"The World Orb."
