I Became a Soul Eater

The moment I passed through the gates, everything changed. The castle was a luxurious scenery that I had never seen before.

There were rows of mansions made of immaculate white walls with gold on the floor and incomprehensible material.

Each house had large windows made of clear glass, and some had countless jewels on the roof, glistening in the sunlight.

“How is it?”

“It looks very expensive.”

At my answer, Count Ctolari just chuckled. It looks expensive. It was my answer that was a bit boring. But that was my honest feeling.

Luxurious avenues and mansions that he had never seen or imagined were lined up, but that was all. The most important thing is missing here.

“Is anyone here?”

At my question, Count Ctolari smiled without answering. The carriage ran a little further, passed the residential area in the castle, entered the castle and stopped.

From noble mtl dot com.

“Welcome to Count Saint-Germain Akasha!”

Hundreds of beauties were waiting for the carriage, and the moment I got off the carriage, all of them bowed in unison.

Even to me who had seen quite a few beauties in the meantime, they were surprisingly outstanding beauties. If you look at them one by one, they are almost as beautiful as Lily. Of course, she doesn’t radiate charm like Lily.

At first glance, a sense of heterogeneity is felt. There are at least hundreds of beauties like there are three or four on the continent right before my eyes.

It’s not just because there are too many. they are lifeless The soul is visible, but it is not like a person. Even the woman in front of me right now doesn’t change her facial expression even once. It’s like a modified human created by Ben Bezalel. Rather, is this an illusion? I can’t erase that doubt.

“Is this some kind of fantasy?”

“If you think it’s fantasy, it’s fantasy, and if you think it’s real, isn’t it real?”

Count Ctolari answered as if it was not a big deal and hugged one of the beauties around the waist. The woman flirted with Count Ctolari in her arms. Looking at it this way, it looks like a person. Was this the reason why I liked this nobleman’s face?

Anyway, I’m not the type to reveal women, and I’m not shaken by this level of beauty. Even so, he is a person who sees elves every day.

“Then come in.”

Seeing my lack of reaction, Count Ctolari escorted me into the palace. A few of the beauties stepped forward and walked down the street.

The palace was much more ornate inside than it looked from the outside. Most of them I didn’t know what the material was, but there were some that I knew. The entire huge pillar was made of mithril or jewels the size of an adult’s head were used as decorations.

“Do you want to eat first?”

“I am not very hungry”

“Still, since you are the first guest to come here, isn’t it the owner’s duty to treat you well?”

It seemed like there was nothing I could choose anyway.

“Then excuse me.”

At the restaurant that Count Ctolari arrived at, a huge table that could seat dozens of people was already packed with food. And it smelled very familiar.

On the table was a whole grilled fish that was twice as big as the one I caught. This was a bit unbearable. I still remember the taste of that fish. Saliva began to form in my mouth.

“Let me eat.”

Count Ctolari, the owner of the castle, took his seat first. I found a suitable seat and sat down. The beauties began to wait and deliver food.

But I didn’t eat anything. The temptation of the pool fish was great, but there was a sense of incongruity from the first time I entered this phase dimension. And I think I know a little bit about what it is.

“Don’t you like the meal?”

“I don’t really have an appetite.”

Then Count Ctolari, who had been eating various things, stopped eating and stood up.

“It seems there was no food that suited Count Akasha’s taste. Next time, I will treat you with a little more care.”

The next place Count Ctolari took me was the garden decorated in the palace. The gardens were also very ornate. It was not decorated with something expensive, but it was full of all kinds of colorful trees and flowers. It was to the point where I wondered if it was the most extreme splendor that could be created by nature.

I sat down at a table on one side and fragrant tea was served immediately. Even though I didn’t drink it, it was the first time I had this type of tea.

“What car is this?”

It’s not something to drink, but you can ask questions.

“It is a well-dried tea from the petals of the Ione tree. It’s the tree over there.”

Looking at the direction Count Ctolari pointed to, there was a tree with flowers of dozens of colors. First of all, it is a tree that does not exist in the world where I live.

“Earl Akasha, prepare your heart a little.”

What else are you trying to come up with with such a warning? But is there anything that can make me agitate? I am the one who withstood the lure of the grass fish just now.

Count Ctolari pointed to one side. I looked there and saw a young woman walking by holding a small child by the hand.

It’s a long distance, but it’s not so far that my eyesight can’t see it. The impression was crumpled at once. I think this is some kind of test. Still, there is such a thing as degree.

“Isn’t that too much?”

Count Ctolari hung his head in silence. It seems to be a sign of apology. Hey, what’s wrong with that person? It must be doing what Cthullah tells you to do.

The woman and child came closer. If people who knew me saw my expression now, it would be enough to make fun of them for a while.

“honey!”

“dad!”

As the distance approached, the woman and child called for me and ran. They are my wife and son when I was a viscount and bastard. Memories that had been buried in my heart for a long time came to mind.

“Stop”

A cold tone came out that surprised me. At my words, the running wife and son stopped. The two of them looked the same as I remembered. What if the second brother didn’t do useless things and just lived as it was?

I was probably just plain happy. He would have just worked as a magistrate, retired from old age, and died of ordinary illness or old age. You must have seen your son grow up and get married and your grandchildren. Of course, he could have died in an accident, or he could have died as a result of someone’s conspiracy.

But now, what does that mean? I am no longer that person then. This test was a very naive move for a god named Ctula.

“When will we meet Cthullah?”

As soon as I left my words, everything around me disappeared. Even the flowers and trees that were gorgeous with their wives and children, and the beautiful women who served them, disappeared.

All that was left was a castle with hideous gray walls and a wasteland.

And then, at some point, Ctulla was standing behind Count Ctolari. It was human-sized, not gigantic as always, but somehow it was more grotesque.

“long time no see. Cthula”

I got up and greeted Ctula.

[How was it?]

“What did you want me to do?”

[I just did a small test to see how far you have deviated from being human.]

If emotions disappear, do we escape from being human? I never wanted to get away from humans in the first place. Although the soul is merely borrowing the body for a short time, I still consider myself a human being.

“Are you satisfied?”

[Not enough yet.]

Should I say I’m lucky I still don’t have the confidence to annihilate people like your gods and not blink an eye.

“You said you were looking for me?”

[It did]

As Ctula beckoned, Count Ctolari pulled something out of the air. It appeared to be the skin of something. It looks like raw leather, but it is the first time I have seen leather that is red without dyeing.

[Do you know what this is?]

“I do not know. It looks like the skin of something.”

[It is the skin of a leopard who was a member of Seshat’s family.]

It doesn’t have a spotted pattern, but the leopard I know doesn’t even have red skin. Let’s move on.

[This is what you really need right now.]

Giving me something I really need is like saying that I will give you a very difficult mission.

“Is there any function?”

[Seshatt is the god of records. Even the leopard, who was a member of the family, still has that power.]

In an instant, my eyes flashed. Really this was what I needed. How to use it was the next question.

“What do you want?”

Please don’t do anything too absurd.

[Do you know Utuka?]

Know. He is the god who sent Jin to burn the elven village. As I absorbed the gin, some memories came to my mind. Yeah, I don’t know very well.

“I know the name.”

[That’s enough.]

Is this an issue with Utuka? If it’s fighting Jin again, it’s better for me.

[Utuka will descend into your world.]

no i don’t want that A foreign god descending into this world? No matter how much Junon and Drakan said the world needed a struggle, it doesn’t make sense to fight a god.

“Can’t Junon and Drakan stop it?”

[They have other things.]

Even if there were other things, the world might be destroyed if foreign gods descended directly.

But is Utuka not on good terms with Ctula? If it was to fight Utuka, wouldn’t it be better to give the World Tree a mission rather than Krula?

[Kill Utuka]

Oh, I also knew that this would come out. It’s not just to block or pursue, it’s to kill. Is it right what I can do?

“Is it something I can do with my own abilities?”

[I do not know. But there is a possibility

Even if I get that leopard skin and raise my rank, I don’t know how quickly I can raise my rank.

Count Ctolari came over with the hide and handed it to me. When I received it, it was quite light compared to the size of the leather. It’s as if it doesn’t even weigh a single piece of paper. A closer look reveals that this is not real. It was a reflection.

No, but I haven’t said I’m doing it yet.

[Utuka won’t come very soon. grow strength]

It’s a good thing out of misfortune. If you’re a little late by God’s standards, you’ll still have quite a bit of time. Maybe in a few decades?

Anyway, I already received the goods and it doesn’t seem like a problem that can be undone. Even if Ctula didn’t give us the mission, we had to stop it.

I don’t know what Utuka will do when she descends, but at least it doesn’t seem like it will have a good effect on the world.

[If you kill Utuka, an orb will appear. bring it to me]

It wasn’t just killing, was it something that needed a price? Hagiya Cthula was always like this.

“All right. If it succeeds, yes.”

In fact, this is an impossible task unless I reach the rank of god, even if I use the leopard skin very well.

However, as Setas said, it is the Avatar that foreign gods intervene in other dimensions. body does not come In that sense, there may be some hope, but we do not have a force as powerful as the dimension of Setas.

From noble mtl dot com.

Could it be possible to create a force as strong as the dimension of Setas in just a few decades? First, a consultation is necessary.

By the time my thoughts were organized, Ctullah created a hole in the phase dimension between me and himself. I guess it means go. Beside him, Count Ctolari bowed slightly.

“Then see you next time.”

After passing through the hole, it wasn’t near the Akasha estate, where they first entered, but near the Tempest estate, which was very far away. As soon as I connected with the clones, I realized that the time I spent in Ctula’s dimension was longer than I thought.

It’s only been a few hours over there, but it’s been 13 days in this world. I knew that time passed differently in each dimension, but I was a little embarrassed when I experienced it myself.

I immediately went to the new continent and called in people who could share this situation.
