His mind quickly found an ability, and he smiled. Once he finished editing Vampirism, he moved to the side and sat on the Dominion's work desk.
Isla was still unconscious and lying down. She wouldn't wake up until Matt allowed it.
For now, it wasn't ti for her to wake up, so he allowed her to sleep.
"I wonder if I can edit the spirits. After all, they are essentially my creation." Matt smiled and closed his eyes, summoning the Spirit Essence to use.
Once the Spirit Essence was present around him, he tried to create a spirit of his own.
That ti, in fusion with Alessa, she directed him to learn how to create a spirit, but that process was quite complicated. Now that he tried to create it, he realized that it was incredibly complicated to do alone.
Even when the encyclopedia in his mind and his understanding of Spiritual Essence told him that he could create a spirit, when he tried to put all that knowledge into practice, he realized that he could not do it so easily.
'Although I have in my mind the ability that I want to bestow on this spirit, the problem is not the ability, but the essence of what the spirit will be.' He thought.
That ti, working with Alessa, it beca easier for him because she knew the spirits very well. She understood their essence very well and what it ant to be a spirit, but Matt didn't understand it as deeply as she did.
'A spirit is basically a soul. Technically, every living thing has one in the body, but it's pretty complicated to understand.' He thought, and his mind traveled as if he was flying at high speed through the universe.
Countless stars passed around him, but in reality, each star was just a fleeting thought that crossed his mind. These thoughts were not that important for the most part; so were of no value to what he needed.
But his ntal capacity allowed him to be selective, even with such fleeting and quick thoughts, to pick out what worked for him and what did not.
As he tried to understand the spirits on his own, he rembered that he could get help from i.
While it would be quicker to ask the Spirit Essence, which could count as 'copying,' it wouldn't give him as much growth and ntal power as if he could do it on his own.
But i shouldn't know that much about spirits, so it was okay to ask her.
'i, what exactly is a spirit? I understand that the essence of you is the Soul and that the body is just a vessel, but aren't we all like that? As I understand it, most living things have a Soul, and this is the essence; without it, no one lives. Do you an that we are all spirits, or is there sothing that differentiates spirits from the rest of the races?'
When he told her this, i stopped looking at destiny and took her ti to answer. She walked down her mountain and ca to the huge tree that stood there, leaning back, looking at the river below her.
Then she smiled.
"There is an incredible difference between our 'Spirits' and your 'Soul'; in fact, we can say that we are opposites. The soul that you have holds your life and, in so cases, very powerful and unique abilities in the universe. I think your Icy Power should be one of those abilities. But it doesn't store anything else; the power you have, you will lose it once your body dies.
That ans that the power of vampires and humans is in the body, and although the soul gets stronger, it's while it's in the body, but once it leaves, the soul's power is reset. And while there are ways around it, all of those ways attract curses so powerful that it is 100% certain that whoever has them will die."
Matt paid special attention to what she wanted to say because her tone of voice was different than usual. It felt like she was telling one of the most exciting stories for her, but also a story from many years ago.
When he heard this, he understood the reason why, at first, he could not use his Icy Power; although he already knew it, now it was more obvious. It was not because his body was too weak but because his soul had not grown strong enough to withstand it.
But right now, he could use it because as the body grew stronger, so did the soul.
i didn't stop; she continued talking.
"Now, our Spirits, that is, we ourselves, are not strengthened at the level of the body. But at the Spirit level. What I an is that the power we have is in the spirit and not in the body. That is why spirits with a strong body are very precious, they may not have exciting abilities, but they have the ability to fight with greater ferocity.
And this is where the issue of our 'opposition' as a race cos in. Our spirit gets stronger and that causes our bodies to get stronger too, although to a lesser extent, which is contrary to what you do, that the body strengthens the soul."
"That is what causes our abilities to be more powerful than anyone would believe. And that's a 'spirit'; it's as important an entity as the body of a human or a vampire."
Matt was shocked by this revelation. 'Wait, you an the vampire-spirit woman I told you I created is an anomaly within your race? She, by default, has a strong body, and her abilities were made to strengthen the body amazingly. Besides, she's a vampire now, and her abilities strengthen the body, ' he said quickly, making i unsure how to respond.
When she saw that woman, she was stunned and investigated her enough to understand her, but she couldn't. Her fate seed to be intertwined and entangled with other things, making it hard for her to see it at present.
Still, she nodded slightly at Matt's question.
"You can think of her as an anomaly. She's a woman who can beco so amazing; she could be scary. Just imagine, if she reaches the greatest heights within the Spirit Race around power, how strong will her body be?" At the end, she smiled a little.
"In the end, I guess I could call you an Anomaly Creator of Anomalies." She whispered between her teeth so that he couldn't hear her.
