I Became a Soul Eater

It was said that in the world where Setas lived, there were people who succeeded in dimension shifting, but no one returned. That is, if Setas calculates the coordinates of the original dimension or the new dimension and opens the dimension gate, there is a very high probability that he will not be able to return.

It had been known for a long time that Setas’ research was coming to an end. However, for some reason, it was delayed a little, but after Cecil died, Setas’ research was finished as if he had waited.

Just as I couldn’t let go of the human part, the part holding Setas’ feet was Cecile.

Setas finished all preparations and came to see me.

“Are you leaving now?”

“Yes, I owe you all this time.”

“Hello to others?”

From noble mtl dot com.

“Coming to think of it, I thought it would be better to disappear quietly like Mr. Howard.”

The guy who was one of the humans who was most upset about Howard’s silent disappearance is about to do the same.

“Isn’t there a chance that it will fail?”

“Even if it is possible to fail to return to the original world, there is little chance of failing in the dimension shift itself.”

“It’s not dangerous anyway, is it?”

If it’s setas level, no matter what dimension you fall into, you won’t be harmed.

“It is.”

Setas handed over all the materials he had studied so far to me. Apart from whether or not I can reproduce the theory set by Setas, there is no guarantee when I will be able to obtain the core material, such as Utuka’s beads.

“By the way, what are you trying to do by going back to the original world? Didn’t they say that they died while doing research?”

“I didn’t just do research. Even when I go back, I will continue my research. This time, I want to finish the research I couldn’t finish last time.”

“Isn’t that more dangerous? Isn’t it bad to just keep living here?”

It was his will to the extent that his memory was erased and he was forcibly sent to another dimension, and I am a little worried about doing it again.

It is better for me that Thetas remain in this world. And it will be good for this world too.

“This is also my hometown, but I still want to die in my real hometown.”

I understand Setas’ thoughts. If I had been in the same situation, I might have thought similarly. I had no intention of forcing it.

In addition to research materials, Setas handed over the vast amount of information about the original world that had been prepared for me. Some of them I could understand, but there were also parts that I couldn’t understand with my common sense and knowledge.

This is probably the part that makes Setas want to return. The portable quantum computer that Setas was talking about seemed like a difficult thing to make even after tens of thousands of years in this world.

That night, Setas quietly opened the dimensional door in the basement of his lab and went inside. I didn’t see you off separately because I said hello in advance.

Bastet appeared in front of me while Setas was doing the final task of opening the portal by himself.

“Is Bastet going too?”

Now I know a little bit about this.

[Yes. Don’t you know what he’ll do if you leave him alone?]

“I’m relieved to hear that Bastet-nim is following you. Please take care of Setas.”

[Recorder, why didn’t you become a god?]

“I still have work to do. There are many things you cannot do if you become a god.”

[You’re trying to do something difficult]

I’m not sure because I’ve never thought about whether the path I’m going to take is a difficult or an easy one, but it seems like that’s what Bastet saw.

“Isn’t it different depending on how you make up your mind?”

[Then be well]

“I look forward to seeing you again.”

Bastet, as always, moved her tail once as if to greet her with a lofty and calm movement, then disappeared.

And right before Setas crossed the dimensional gate, he got on top of Setas’ head.

“Ouch! Will you follow me here?”

[Stupid!]

Bastet’s front paw struck Setas’ forehead with repeated blows. The two bickered until the very end and passed through the dimensional gate amicably.

It was only after a very long time had passed that Setas’ disappearance was known. Originally, it was very difficult for others to notice because it was a Setas that did not come out often from a laboratory far away from people.

The laboratory that Setas had been using until the end was completely closed and sealed. ‘Cause I’m the only one who can go in It was like a new dungeon was created.

Except for the androids that Setas had created, they were all stopped and put on standby in the lab.

It is said that the power is close to infinite, but now these are things that cannot be repaired if they are broken. You don’t know when you might need to use it, so save it.

The armored android that Setas had created in the warlock’s dungeon long ago when he fell alone had been chosen a while ago. Since it has an independent self, it would be absurd to call it the owner, but unfortunately, it was Wither’s son who brought it out and became the armored android’s first friend.

As soon as Wither’s son came of age, he ran out of the territory to become an adventurer. Wither, who was behind his son’s runaway, seemed to hire the Sword Mountain mercenaries to secretly protect him, but unfortunately for Wither, Wither’s son was quite good as an adventurer. I’ve already made several discoveries and had some results. So it seemed that he had no intention of returning home. In addition, now that the armored android has become a companion, there will be no harm.

Not too long ago, I went to the Kingdom of Cython for a while, which I thought I would never have to go to.

This is because Prince Ryan Cython, who was caught by Nivea’s curse, was still unable to lift any of the restraints.

At the time, Nivea said that it was not a strong curse, but a simple prohibition, but somehow Prince Ryan had not yet been able to break even a single restriction and became a complete vegetative person.

Now I thought I had been punished enough. In fact, the only sin was Prince Ryan, who was born as the son of a greedy king.

Apparently, while living as a vegetative person for such a long time, his mind didn’t collapse, and he seems to have learned some strange skills.

He was a genius comparable to Argin in terms of the talent of his soul. Now, hoping to use that talent for good in the world, he released one prohibition. If the prince had the talent, he thought he could solve the rest on his own.

As expected, as soon as one ban was lifted, the prince released 5 out of 19 bans in a few months and was gradually returning to normal physically.

However, the mind did not collapse, but it was quite broken. This prince was quite mad.

Prince Il, who was full of talent, woke up from a long slumber, and the beginning of the struggle for the throne began again in the kingdom of Cython.

Taking advantage of the confusion in the Kingdom of Saiton, Shalltear’s Principality of Nebra wanted to reveal its demons again, but there was also an incident that was stopped at once by the druids nestled in the middle ground.

William did not forgive the Principality of Nebra for once again trying to unleash a war.

Shalltear was immediately repatriated to her home country and imprisoned in a separate palace. However, the Principality of Nebra itself did not disappear. It couldn’t be because of neighboring countries that were concerned about the expansion of the Aether Empire. Regardless of Shalltear’s will, the youngest of Shalltear’s adopted children was selected as the successor, and one of the princes was dispatched along with the officials to act as the regent.

The reason Shalltear, who is himself a Master and has a warlike personality, was helplessly brought to his home country because Argin was the one who was dispatched to repatriate Shalltear.

Argin, who had finally complied with the emperor’s request, passed on the family to his eldest son and announced his retirement from the field, although he was relatively young.

However, this brought about a major change in the power structure of the Aether Empire. Argin’s son was a military man with little talent, but considerable ambition and talent in politics.

The family of the Duke of Tempest, who had not been involved in central politics, began to come forward in full force.

By that time, Akasha’s estate had completed all transfers. It was a great movement under the connivance of William and the great nobles.

I also had no intention of becoming a king. That’s why I spent as much time as possible with Lena and taught her a lot.

Lena was talented. He was not a genius who learned things quickly, but had a talent for making people around him happy. As a king, I think it is a great talent.

The kingdom of Akasha, which covers the entire New Continent as its territory, declared its founding. And I became the first king. And a week later, he handed over the throne to Lena.

Argin retired early and became a comfortable old man in the back room, so couldn’t I work? After retiring, Argin came over to the New World with Violetta, settled down, and had fun fishing.

I want to know what kind of fishing is a human who can split the sea with a single swing of his sword, but I had some fun doing it next to him for a few days. Argine was fishing by throwing a thread without attaching a hook, but a tuna the size of an adult was caught and came up.

Now that the migration was over and the country was founded, Wither had nothing to do, and he wanted to live a little more comfortably, but suddenly his body began to deteriorate.

He goes several times a day to heal, but the problem is not the body, but the soul. Wither’s soul was rapidly weakening for no reason. I didn’t say anything, but Wither already knew.

“Perhaps it is a side effect of living life over again. There is no time limit.”

“Thank you so much.”

There was nothing more I could have said. But that was my sincerity.

Wither and Jake became dukes of Akasha Kingdom. And even though Wither only had one day, he rose to the first chancellorship of Akasha Kingdom.

My son, who was enjoying an adventure far away, I grabbed him by the collar, dragged him, and threw him in front of Wither. Those who had a relationship with Wither were countless in Akasha’s estate, and many of them shared the end of Wither. Wither smiled and closed his eyes.

Absorbed the Wither’s soul. Memories of Wither’s previous life began to come in. And as the past life I saw through my foreknowledge and various things interlocked, the picture I expected began to be completed.

Wither’s funeral was held in a manner worthy of the emperor’s. There were so many people who were saddened by Wither’s death.

Will people gather like this when I die later? Probably never.

After Wither’s funeral, I got stuck in the lab. Lena is doing a good job as a queen. In fact, Akasha Kingdom is a little different from other countries.

There is not even a royal palace. At first, I had thoughts of building one, but since the mansion I live in is quite special, I decided to just live there.

As much as that, the role as a king was different from other countries. It is the basic idea of the Akasha Kingdom to treat the people as human beings living together, not to rule them like other countries.

As a king, I believe that authority does not come from strength or power. And yet it is successful.

There is a hierarchy of nobles and commoners, but no nobles are as authoritative as those of other countries.

In the first place, nearly half of the population is of a non-human race, making it even more unique. There are quite a few laws that cannot exist in other countries.

If you ask the dwarves to bow their heads to the human nobles, all they will get back is a hammer. The same goes for elves and beasts. In that respect, as the king of the kingdom of Akasha, which encompassed all of them, Lena was an optimal person who could not be replaced by anyone.

I was in the process of translating the last stage of the elixir of immortality to complete the final part of the picture I was thinking of.

Like the research on the portals of Setas, I reached the final stage a long time ago. But it was lacking in certainty. I didn’t know what would happen if I put in Utuka’s orb, not a god fruit. But I think I know now, so I’m moving on.

A spotless blue solution is boiling. This is the final step to becoming the elixir of immortality. If you add a crystal of tremendous energy that cannot be obtained in this world here, dissolve it, and succeed in stabilizing it, it will theoretically become an elixir of immortality.

Originally, I need a god fruit, but I have a piece of Utuka’s marble in my hand that might be better as a substitute. If you add this to dissolve and stabilize it, it is complete.

“Are you here?”
