"A Nightmare Form's soul is naturally purer than a normal human's," Sunders explained.
"I see. You used to be a Nightmare Form too. But why do I feel like his soul is purer? "Ness was still puzzled.
Angor's Nightmare Form should be higher than mine. Sunders muttered in his mind. Many people knew about his physique, but not many knew about the specific effects of a Nightmare Form.
"With such a high soul quality, he should be able to learn soul spells easily," Ness exclaimed.
Sunders didn't pay much attention to Ness' comment, but Angor did.
As long as Angor knew how to kill a Soul Wizard, he would be satisfied. Since Hookdick sent someone to assassinate him, Angor had to pay him back.
Soon, they reached the second step of the experiment: "Separating Soul from Body".
Since they had enough materials, the liquid was ready in no time. The liquid was light green in color and was poured into a transparent glass chamber.
Following Ness' instructions, Angor took off all his clothes and crawled into the liquid-filled chamber.
He felt suffocated for a second when he was soaked in the liquid. However, when the liquid reached all his orifices, the feeling of suffocation disappeared. Even though his nose was filled with the green liquid, it did not affect his breathing at all. Instead, he felt as if he had returned to his mother's womb, where he felt warm and safe.
He felt warm and comfortable all over his body.
In such a comfortable environment, Angor's brain seemed to be able to rest. His eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and he slowly fell asleep.
…
After Angor fell asleep, Ness began to prepare for the soul extraction process.
Ness could use a spell to do it, but it would cause too much damage to Angor, so Sunders didn't want to do it. Therefore, he had to use a more complicated method. First, he used a spell to free his soul from his body. Next, he ignited a precious Soul Lure Grass so that Angor's soul would be attracted to it and leave his body.
It was a long and tedious process. After igniting the Soul Lure Grass, Sunders didn't know when Angor's soul would be pulled out of his body.
Thus, after igniting the Soul Guiding Grass, Ness began to have nothing to do. He was so bored that he became a demon.
He summoned a bunch of young and beautiful maids and had fun with them. When he saw Sunders standing in front of the glass cabin, he did not forget to send two maids to serve him.
But before the maids could get close, they fainted on their own.
"Retract your power. Why are you so harsh on mortals?" "Angor's soul is still stable. It's still too early for him to leave his body," said Ness as she approached Angor.
"You just can't control your desires. That's why you can't improve yourself. If you want to go further on the path of becoming a Magus, you must learn to control yourself. "
"It's just a hobby. You make it sound like you don't have any hobbies," Ness said nonchalantly.
"Of course you can have hobbies, but hobbies don't mean you can indulge them." His voice was still cold.
"Hey, why do I feel like you're lecturing me? Don't forget that Mary of Dark Castle used to bathe in the blood of virgins three thousand years ago. She had tens of thousands of gigolos. She was much more indulgent than me, yet she still became a legend and left the southern wizardry region to explore further lands. "Ness felt wronged. There was someone else who was even more indulgent than him.
"Indulgence and restraint can't be measured by numbers. Even if you only have one woman, you can indulge. But for Queen Mary, even if you have twice as many gigolos, you can still call it restraint. "
Seeing Ness still looking unconcerned, Sunders decided not to say anything else. Wizards had to walk the path of wizardry by themselves in order to understand the truth. Just like how he did with Angor, he didn't teach Angor any spells until Angor began to explore the essence of spells and modify them according to his own ideas. Only then did he give Angor the notebook that recorded illusions.
Sunders did not say anything else. Ness went back to play with the women and felt bored. After sending all the maids away, he returned to Sunders.
"Speaking of which, how did you teach Angor? How did he know the effects of those magic plants? And how did he know how to combine them? " "Look at Angor. Look at my students. They can't compare at all."
Sunders felt a little awkward. He did not teach Angor anything about alchemy. So when Ness claimed this achievement, Sunders did not know how to describe it. He felt both embarrassed and proud at the same time.
When Sunders did not answer, Ness kept talking. "He even knew that Mero Scorpion Flower can be used as a catalyst … I only found this out by accident not long ago. How did Angor know this? Did he learn something from the Elder of Books? "
Sunders was curious about this as well, but he did not ask further. Wizards had different knowledge, but they were also independent of each other. What Sunders knew might not be known to others, and what Sunders knew might not be known to others.
Sunders, for example, did not know much about souls. Otherwise, he would not have come all the way here to see Ness.
"He didn't learn anything from the Elder of Books, but he did learn something from the Elder of Books …" Sunders felt proud of Angor.
How many years had it been since someone got something useful from the Elder of Books? It didn't matter what Angor did. What he did was an ability.
Ness became even more jealous. "If I knew this would happen, I would've gone to bring the talent here. Maybe Angor would've become my student! I have so many questions to ask the Elder of Books! But the Elder of Books kicked me out the moment he saw me. So embarrassing! "
Sunders thought to himself. "You won't get Angor even if you went to the Elder of Books. I was the one who intercepted him halfway! "
While they were talking about Angor, Angor, who was immersed in the nutrient solution, found himself back in the chaotic space.
This was where he fought against Parasite Queen in Soul Struggle.
"I'm back in my soul form?" Angor looked around curiously. This chaotic space was similar to his mind space, but it was not his mind space because he could not sense the Axes of the Universe.
Apart from Angor's soul, there was only one thing in the empty space.
It was a green flower bud that was glowing in a ghostly green light.
So this is the main body of the Green Velvet?
Angor tried to move his soul. He thought he would be unable to move just like when he fought against Parasite Queen. But to his surprise, his soul was not restrained.
"Huh? My soul can move? " Curious, he tried to feel the movement of his soul, which was similar to what he experienced in the Nightmare Realm. It was as if he could float in the air without being restrained by gravity.
He flew to the Green Velvet Tapestry and circled around it. He did not dare to touch it directly, but he noticed that his soul felt very comfortable when he stayed close to it.
Just as Sunders said, the Green Velvet could nourish one's soul.
But Angor remembered Sunders saying that the main body of the Green Velvet was inside his body. In other words, the Green Velvet was inside his organs. But why was he able to see the Green Velvet here?
Could it be that this chaotic space was actually inside his body? But why couldn't he feel his blood, veins, and organs? Why was there nothing but a strange, empty space?
Where was the Green Velvet? And what was this chaotic space?
Maybe he would have to ask his teacher about it.
He stayed beside the Green Velvet and enjoyed the nourishment of his soul until he sensed a strange force pulling him away from it.
It was like a candy placed in front of a child. It was very tempting.
Angor thought he could resist the temptation, but his mind could not keep up with his actions. When he realized what was going on, he was already standing in front of a hole that looked like a whirlpool.
The hole allowed him to see everything outside. He saw Sunders right away, but Sunders did not seem to notice him.
Sunders, on the other hand, saw Sunders and beckoned him to come out.
Angor was already tempted to step out of the hole. Seeing Sunders' gesture, he did not hesitate to do so.
…
"Good boy. He's finally out. That kid's soul is really big. It took me more than an hour to get the Soul Lure out. "
Once Angor's soul left the hole, Sunders put out the Soul Lure Grass.
The attraction to Angor was gone as well.
"Looks like the separation of soul and body was successful. Next, let's test the soul."
As a soul, he couldn't sense the fluid, so he assumed that he was an incorporeal being and should be able to pass through the glass chamber.
But he did not. He slammed his head against the glass wall and felt dizzy.
Sunders almost wanted to cover his face when he saw his stupid student banging his head against the wall.
Sunders laughed loudly. When he saw Angor's expression getting worse, he said, "All the equipment in my lab is specially made. Souls cannot pass through them."
Under Sunders' disdainful gaze and Sunders' mocking laughter, Angor crawled out of the hole in the ceiling.
When his soul landed on the ground, he still felt unreal. He looked back at his body, which was soaking in the liquid, and felt a sense of wonder. He could feel a connection between his soul and his body, but he could not find anything when he tried to investigate it.
"The kid already knows how to cover up his body. Look at his soul form. He created a set of clothes." Sunders nodded.
As Ness said, Angor's soul wasn't naked. Instead, he was wearing a set of ordinary clothes without any style.
"You think everyone is like you? You have no moral bottom line."
"Why should I care about moral bottom lines? The rules of mortals only restrict human nature. Wizards should free their nature. How can they be restrained by morals? "Sunders scoffed.
"Your understanding is too one-sided and extreme. That's why you can't break through." Sunders did not bother to explain. "Let's begin. We'll record your soul first."
Sunders looked at Angor. "Can you feel the gray mist inside you now?"
"I can feel it." Angor sensed something strange in the depth of his soul. "I can feel it."
"Can you control it? Release it, "Sunders asked.
Angor tried. "I don't think so."
Ever since he released a large amount of the gray mist last time, it seemed to have entered a low-frequency state. The gray mist, which was easy to control, was now like a pool of stagnant water. When Angor sent his consciousness into the mist, he could clearly feel that the mist was becoming rigid.
"I see … I need to do some experiments. First, I need to determine its location, then I can stimulate it." Sunders pointed at the lab table where he placed the girl's body. "Angor, come here. Go to the table first."
