I Became a Soul Eater

“No, that won’t work.”

Nivea’s resurrection was a challenge because there was a clue that the soul was destroyed by Zurvan’s intervention, and there were conditions that Zurvan was the god of time who could turn back time and that I had something I could give to Zurvan in return.

It was just leaving the possibility open. And Nivea is just a human being. Of course, he was not an ordinary human being, but he was a human being who did not build up his dignity to the last.

But how absurd it is to resurrect a god. Maybe it’s something he can’t do without him.

“okay.”

The words were brief, but Felix’s disappointment was evident.

“But there is no way.”

“Is there any other way?”

“Why do you think the gods are dead?”

At my question, the wizards looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Because no one knows the answer. At some point, I had vaguely thought that way.

The gods are not dead. In the first place, God is not a being that dies so easily. Utuka’s case is just special.

The gods that existed in this world were also probably avatars, although I did not directly confirm them. The avatar may have disappeared, but the body is not dead. It is more likely that the avatar did not disappear either.

“Do you think God is a being that dies so easily? no. It’s just gone or hiding for a while, but it’s not like it’s dead. And that’s exactly what I’m looking into. I think the clue is in the emerald slabs.”

Felix seemed to think deeply about my explanation before replying.

“It’s not that we haven’t thought about that possibility. However, if so many gods suddenly disappeared and did not appear for more than a thousand years, there was no other explanation, so I thought that from some point.”

“Only a thousand years? To God, that amount of time is nothing. I’ve only lived about 300 years, and my concept of time has changed a lot from that of normal people. But to a god who might have lived for tens of thousands of years, a thousand years is really nothing.”

Felix had an expression of realization.

“Can we talk to each other for a minute?”

“However much”

I nodded and came out. It didn’t matter because there was still an alter ego inside. Felix and the wizards were having a heated discussion. It seems that it will not be over in a short time, so I decided to solve the questions I have been curious about since I came here.

There were several places in the village where magic reactions were strong. From the outside, it is a very ordinary town. The smoke from making food rises from each house and children play.

However, if you look closely, there are obviously missing parts. Fewer men work. Men are not absent, but there are men who farm and raise livestock.

From the beginning, I looked at it suspiciously, and it was something I could see.

No one particularly stopped me, but when I moved to a place with a large magical response, the eyes of the villagers who seemed to be doing chores here and there passed me by.

Naturally, it seemed that all the villagers were either members of the Rosicrucian Knights or had joined them.

The first place was the guard post at the entrance of the village. Even as I approached, no one in the guard post came out and spoke to me.

There was a strong magical response from the underground part of the guard post. I hurriedly pulled out one clone and sent it there.

Not underground, to be exact, there was a metal plate about an inch in size buried under the floor of the guard post. This is a very familiar structure.

This is the method I used when I made Guardian Spirit’s Rage. It is a method of overlapping several thin metal plates. The only difference is the way the metal plate is processed.

A long metal wire was connected to the metal plate. Perhaps there is a device like this in places where other magic reactions occur. It seems that this is the device that maintains the barrier, but it was the first time I saw it that I hadn’t thought of.

Perhaps this was also made by the first head of household, or he left such knowledge. The first family head was such a great wizard, but why is there no outstanding wizard now?

The wizards I met inside had unique skills to hide their momentum, but it was hard to see them as high-level wizards, no matter how good they looked.

This side also had the feeling that the knowledge and skills of magic were lost in the middle. The other world is not without such a tendency, but according to Merlin, the ancient wizards of this world rarely shared their knowledge with others.

Blocking the development of martial arts was for some to monopolize it, and magic was similarly a problem with closedness.

God is not the problem, but human greed is blocking the development of the world. Also, the fact that there are no monsters in this world is probably a big reason.

There was no need to publicize it widely because there was no powerful existence threatening survival that could not be fought without magic.

It seemed that the conversation had ended inside as they were snooping around the village, thinking about this and that. I slowly moved towards the two-story house where Felix was.

When I came here, Georg, who acted as a coachman, opened the door to call me and came out.

“The meeting is over. Eat inside.”

The result was already known. The content of the discussion was insignificant. It’s a matter of trust in me, and that part had already been investigated in various ways and concluded by moving to various countries and attending social events. And they already acknowledged that I was a far superior wizard than them. However, it seemed that I needed confirmation of the part that I had crossed over from another dimension.

I thought for a moment about what would be the simplest way to prove that I had crossed the dimension.

Upon entering, Felix cautiously opened his mouth.

“It’s none other than Germain-sama…”

“I already know the contents. You mean to prove that I came from another dimension?”

“No how to do it?”

He didn’t bother to answer. The surest way would be to transfer the knowledge and embed the records of the other world into someone’s head, but he didn’t have the talent to withstand it.

“Do you have a little more space? I’m going to take out a little something to prove and show it.”

Since this dimension is very similar to the dimension I lived in, there weren’t many objects that could definitely claim that ‘this is an object from another dimension’.

“Will it be enough for a large warehouse?”

When I nodded, Felix and the wizards guided me to a warehouse building in the village. As expected of a camouflage building, there were few items in the warehouse.

“It will be all right.”

The size of the warehouse was sufficient. After making the people close to me step back a bit, I took out the bodies of the monsters from the subspace. They were kept for research purposes when fighting Utuka and forgot to take them out.

thud! thud! cooong!

The corpses of three monsters—a small species, a flying species, and a giant species—fall to the floor, making the floor tremble.

The wizards stiffened when they saw the corpses of the monsters I had taken out. It seems that the appearance of the monsters, which seemed to be made by mixing various monsters unique to Utuka’s monsters, was quite shocking. And it seems to be surprised at the overwhelming size of the large species. And a moment of silence ensued.

“They’re monsters that invaded the place where I lived.”

“Oh, sorry. I’m a little surprised. May I investigate for a moment?”

I nodded my head at Felix’s words.

“You can just take it and study it. But you’ll have to be careful with these blood. It is a terrible poison.”

These are already things I don’t need. I was able to take care of the garbage while being condescending.

As soon as my words ran out, the wizards rushed towards the monster’s corpse. Wizards are things like this world or the other world.

There was a commotion for a while, but Felix, who came to his senses quickly, came and bowed.

“You looked ugly. I have no face.”

“So, have your doubts been resolved?”

“of course.”

It seemed that there was no need to ask the opinions of other wizards.

“Then, as promised, I want to read the prophecy of the first family head?”

“I see.”

I followed Felix to the original two-story house and went upstairs. There was a room that looked like Felix’s office, but I had completely missed the prediction that there would be a book of prophecy somewhere on the bookshelf.

“Don’t be alarmed.”

The view changed as Felix inserted his ring into the small groove in the middle of the luxurious white stone desk that occupied the center of the office and turned it.

Felix told me not to be surprised, but I couldn’t help but be surprised. This is because the connection with the alter ego is severed the moment the view changes.

“Phase dimension?”

The first family head made the phase dimension that even Setas made with such hard work? The space that had been Felix’s office was now a completely different place.

I thought the first family head’s skills were amazing, but this was too unexpected.

“Is this also made by the first family head?”

“That’s right. As of now, we dare not even imitate it. The desk you saw earlier and the ring from our family are one set. You cannot come here without either of them.”

Felix stepped forward and started walking. This was a grassland area where the prophecies were not thought to exist.

Even after walking behind Felix and looking around, it was just a peaceful grassland. But it’s a place that feels artificial. No insects or animals were seen. And grass doesn’t grow beautifully if left alone.

After following Felix for a while, a small cave entrance appeared in the middle of the meadow, and we opened the door and entered it.

“Germain-sama will be the 10th to enter here.”

“Who are the first nine people?”

“At the time of discovering this place, there was the head of the household and 8 colleagues. They are the ones who are the beginnings of the present Knights of the Rosicrucian.”

There is a bit of a strange part, but I decided to skip it for now and started walking through the narrow cave.

“What is the name of the first family head?”

“You are Christian. It is said that he was abandoned by his parents and studied at a monastery, but came out to the world at the age of sixteen and met wizards and learned magic from them. They say he traveled the world after learning magic.”

After going inside for a while, what appeared to be a tomb in the cave had been dug up and a sarcophagus was exposed. And on the left and right, there were four blue tombstones. And many letters were engraved on the tombstone.

“This is the first family head’s prophecy.”

I thought it was a book because it was a prophetic book, but it seems that these tombstones were called prophetic books.

When I got closer, I saw that the blue tombstone was not a blue stone, but originally made of copper.

I read the contents of the prophecy from the beginning. Even as I approached the Prophecy, Felix stood by and watched me.

The prophetic books were inscribed in the scripts of many nations, and it did not matter much if it were not the ancient hieroglyphs or the indigenous languages of a few tribes, which I had not learned.

The first sentence of the Prophecy was ‘I will be found in 120 years.’

“Was it really discovered 120 years later?”

“Yes, if what the first head of the family wrote down is correct, this place was discovered exactly 120 years after the first head of the family passed away.”

So, is this a foreknowledge? Not only did he create the Aspect Dimension, but he also had the ability to foresee? I had always thought that the first head of household was an ordinary person, but I felt I had to change my mind. The guest housekeeper, Christian, is by no means an ordinary person.

After that, the contents of the prophecy were not as important as expected. Rather than prophecies, they were theories from a considerable number of disciplines, such as physics, chemistry, and medicine.

Knowledge that is not in the world can be called prophecy in its own way. And there was something written almost in the last verse.

It was the content referring to the visitor of the dimension and time, but the time of appearance was written and, crucially, the name was written.

‘Saint Germain Akasha Records’

Felix, confirming what I had read to the end, came closer.

“How are you?”

“Awesome.”

“Isn’t it?”

Is it because you are happy to praise your ancestors? Felix’s eyes curved like crescent moons and a smile caught on.

“Christian, your acting is amazing.”

The crescent moon sometimes looks like a curved sword. Felix’s eyes looked like that now.
