Gail, Gamin and the rest all saw the dome fluctuating constantly.
They couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.
Giyon and Grivon are trying to find a way to deal with this and the best they could do is, increase the energy output of the formation to stabilize it which worked temporarily.
They wanted to take a look at Sam and ask him.
He said that he would be in for twelve hours. But he stopped using the soul network a while ago, but he was still stuck inside.
He didn’t come out.
Gail and Gamin wanted to go and destroy the wolves immediately. But they are hesitating as Sam repeatedly warned them to not do anything drastic and he said that they shouldn’t be moving out randomly just because the circumstances became a bit tense.
Giyon directly ran into the tower and saw Sam.
She noticed that he is frowning hard and his body is shivering.
She wanted to wake him up, but the people who are guarding the formation and operating it stopped her.
“He is trying to get out and got stuck in the middle. Some force is stopping him from coming out. We cannot disturb him now. He has to come back by himself.”
One of the formation masters said that and Giyon became even more anxious. She even forgot about the formation outside for a second.
At this moment, Sam who is shivering continuously is looking in his soul space.
Inside the soul space, a young man is standing in front of him with a faint smile.
He has black hair with a medium-short stature. He looked lean but sharp. He is none other than Cray.
“Don’t worry too much Sam. I know you are trying to get out. I will let you leave in a few seconds.”
“Are you the one that tried to enter the soul space before?”
“Of course, that was me. But you don’t have to worry about me. I am not here to harm you.”
“I would have believed you more if you met me face to face. Not in my soul space.”
“Of course, I would like that too, but it is impossible for me to just come and meet you. There are way too many obstacles and I might die before I reach you. Gail is a real hard son of a bitch to counter.”
“Why are you here? If you are here to kill me just be done with it.”
“Of course, I would have done that if I was here for that. But I am here just to talk. I want to advise you to leave the battlefield. Right now.”
“And why would I do that?”
“Because you cannot die here. You are way too precious to die here. You have great potential and a whole new world where you can thrive is waiting for you.”
“I will reach it soon enough. This war will not stop me.”
“Really? I can kill you right here, right now. You will be stopped.”
“I doubt that.”
Sam said confidently.
“Really? What do you think you would be able to do? I am way too stronger than you.”
“We will know as soon as you try.”
“You are bluffing.”
“Then call it.”
“You are treading in a dangerous space here my friend. I like you, that is why I am advising you. Leave this place and you will be safe. You have a lot of life ahead of you. A life you never even imagined before.”
“Really? I doubt that.”
“Why are you being stubborn?”
“I am not. I have a promise to keep. And the only reason this war is happening like this is because of me. If I leave now, Sivan will back down. Do you want to stop the war or something?”
“No, the war will go on. The Divine league is involved. There is no way Sivan would be able to back down now.”
“Then you are wrong about two things.”
“It seems like you need to get a taste of some overwhelming power.”
As he said, Cray extended his hand and the soul space became a bit constrained. Sam felt like his soul is being pulled out of his body completely.
He immediately made a move. The spectre suddenly used all of the stray souls it has collected and flooded them with Cray’s soul image.
All of the souls that came out were all given full control over themselves and they all merged with Sam’s soul space as they attacked Cray.
“Parlour trick.”
Cray muttered and he snapped his finger. All of the souls that are attacking him immediately disappeared. But at this moment, he suddenly realized that Sam’s soul is merging with the spectre while the soul space around him is crumbling.
Cray widened his eyes in disbelief.
“Are you mad? What the fuck is wrong with you?”
“I said you cannot kill me. You cannot.”
“But you will become a part of that spectre. You wouldn’t be yourself. It is a spectre made of Ghost chimaera on top of that. You will lose control of yourself if things go wrong.”
“But I will leave this space alive.”
“You are crazy. Do you know that?”
“I know that I will survive for sure. I might not be able to defeat you. But I will be able to defeat the souls in the spectre since I already defeated them once. I have more chance of living. But would you be unscathed? With your soul being trapped in a collapsing soul space while you are trying to leave.”
As he spoke, the space started crumbling.
“Stop it. Stop it. Don’t harm yourself just to prove a fucking point. I am leaving. You will not have any trouble with me in the rest of the war. Just be careful about Avlyn. For some reason, she is really pissed at you and she wants to kill you.”
“186.”
“What is that?”
“Her number in the queue. There are at least that many people that are pissed at me enough to kill me. At least the people that I know of. She has a long queue to cross.”
“You are way too cocky. I now know what Sivan is talking about.”
Cray left the space all of a sudden and Sam stopped his fusion with the spectre and his soul space started coming into the shape.
After ten more minutes.
In the tower. Sam opened his eyes and took a deep breath. He held his head tightly with his hand. He felt like his head is being constantly hit by a blunt and heavy object.
“Fucking hell. You are okay. Finally. I was freaking out.”
Giyon yelled and she hugged Sam.
Sam looked at her and sighed.
“How is the situation?”
“How is your situation dumbass? What the hell happened?”
“I will explain later. First tell me, who is the situation?”
“You take a look yourself.”
As soon as she said that Sam ran out and looked out. He was dumbfounded by what he saw. The whole area is full of bugs.
The bugs flying over and most of them are stuck to the grass and the trees as they sucked the vitality out of them.
“Undead hives?”
“Is that what those black objects are called?”
“Yes. Did Sivan really use these things?”
Sam asked as he looked at them in disgust.
“Why? Is there a problem?”
“They are useless.”
As soon as Sam said that, he snapped his fingers. A small energy ripple occurred. The ripple style acted up and the bugs that are flying until then stopped all of a sudden.
Sam used this chance to destroy them with a single slap.
“It is that easy. As long as they are not supplied with a smooth flow of energy, they will stop. You can just slap them in that one moment.”
“That is it?”
“Yes, I think two slaps from your father will destroy them instantly. As for the people who got bit by them, tell them to take a vitality potion or two. They will be fine. They are the most useless things he could use.”
Sam said as he looked at the fluctuating formation.
“Did he use the wolves?”
“Yes.”
“And he used the fluctuations to send these stupid things inside? How did I even lose my body against this guy? I feel so ashamed of myself all of a sudden.”
“Mistakes happen sometimes I guess.”
“Anyway, nobody tried to attack the Wolves, did they?”
“No, my father is thinking of using ranged attacks now.”
“Well, it is a good thing I came in time. Don’t let him attack the things at the moment. We can use this chance for our benefit. Tell them to get the sphere cannons ready. I have a plan.”
Giyon hurriedly left to pass on his instructions. Sam walked to the city wall as he looked at the wolves. He couldn’t help but smile slightly.
He then looked at the camp far away.
“Thanks for sending these things to me, you idiot.”
