Chapter 204: Soul Domain with new life
[One mont, let try out my brand new skill in three, two, one.]
The mont Kazumi finished cheerfully counting, Vincent imdiately started feeling the ti around him suddenly halting and the darkness approaching. However, this ti was different because Ester and Lupa were beside him the next ti he opened his eyes.
“Huh? Where am I?” Lupa looked around as this was a new place for her. It was her first ti seeing the patch of erald grass.
“Kazumi, did sothing happen?” Ester knew it was an ability only Kazumi was able to do. Vincent’s version only worked to recruit and not invite for a trivial chat.
[Welco, everyone. I’ll keep it short since it seems you three are sucking my mana quite quickly. I thought this skill would use the sa mana upkeep of Soul Visit, but I was wrong.]
[Let explain why I brought you here. You see, Vincent conceived two soul eggs, and they are about to hatch at any mont now. I wonder what will hatch out of them, hehehe.]
[So papa Vincent, congratulation, you are about to beco a father in a few more seconds.]
.....
“What the F...” Vincent was about to start swearing as Kazumi took the joke too far. However, the sound of a sturdy material loudly echoed, catching their attention fully.
*Crack, crack*
The two eggs Kazumi kept ntioning were camouflaged inside the erald grass since they were both of the sa colors. What was inside the eggs vigorously tried to get out, causing the eggs to roll out of the erald grass and beco visible.
“My mate... do male humans make eggs? But... wolves don’t co out of eggs. We are not like birds.” Lupa asked while staring at the rolling eggs. She didn’t know what to think other than having a mysterious cub with her mate.
“I want to know too. What is happening? Please explain to us, Kazumi. Vincent, did you know about this?” Ester started freaking out. She didn’t know where to look and who to ask for an answer.
Vincent vigorously shook his head while denying, “No, no, no, it can’t be possible! This is a shock to as well!”
*Crack, plop*
One of the eggs broke in half, and a small living erald wolf statue appeared. *Woooo* The jewel-like fur-covered wolf pup howled the mont it was born.
*Woof*
“I’m! I’m a mother!” Lupa swiftly lifted the newborn wolf and started slling its fur. Strangely, the little wolf began slling Lupa as well.
[Well, Lupa reached fifty percent Soul Synch before Ester. This might be the reason for it hatching first. To be honest, it wasn’t too long ago that I discovered the eggs hidden in the grass.]
“Yey! My cub is the first one, but...” Lupa looked closely and couldn’t find anything behind other than a tail. “M-my cub has nothing! There is nothing behind!” She urgently continued, stuttering from surprise.
*Crack... boom*
The second egg exploded, and a small cloud of green dust covered the area around the exploding egg. As the dust gradually beca fainter and the view unobstructed, sixteen butterflies joyfully fluttered in the air, leaving a trail of green dust from their egg.
“Butterflies? Are they my children?” Ester questioned while the butterflies circled Vincent and Ester in joy.
Vincent looked closely and noticed four different patterns. However, all four groups of four butterflies were green. As if a master jewel sculptor carved sixteen butterflies out of erald and made each butterfly so lifelike that they ca to life.
Four butterflies had the design of the sun on each of their wings, and another four had the design of a snowflake on their wings.
The other group was slightly different as the design was similar to a gust of wind, yet it sotis looked like waves. The design had the illusion of shifting wind when the butterflies stop for a split second to change elevation.
Similarly, the remaining four had a pattern quite unusual. On their wings was a pattern with a few tiny octagons. After observing the previous three elent patterns, the octagon pattern seems to represent the hard earth or a smooth and robust ground.
Regardless of the four different and distinct patterns, the butterflies fluttered their wings unnaturally. Sotis they flapped their wings like butterflies, sotis like birds with a stronger flap, and other tis so quick their wings beca almost a blur. The sixteen erald butterflies looked intelligent and free.
“Humph! Mine is stronger! ” Lupa didn’t look too happy that Ester beat her with numbers, so she wanted Ester to know that it is quality over quantity and that she is the winner.
“Ahem! They aren’t our children. I... a man can’t conceive children and... how can I lay eggs... and of that size?” Vincent didn’t like the idea that he was the one to create... conceive new life. He felt his pride crumble and the position of a man challenged by his two won.
“But aren’t you part mutant?” Ester asked without a hint of blush, unlike her usual behavior. However, her words didn’t appear to be a joke. She might be serious about the question after knowing quite well how mysterious Vincent is. Even after being with him for almost two months.
[That’s an interesting theory. I wonder if Vincent can? Hehehe.]
Kazumi teased. Then she looked at Ester and continued.
[The butterflies look srizing and free. They feel very similar to what I watched you do many tis. It feels like watching you dance and move your body freely. Move your body with complete control of every muscle.]
[Ester, they look like you.]
After Kazumi ntioned this, all the erald butterflies flew around Kazumi and fluttered their wings in joy, dancing in a precise pattern as if they possessed a hive mind.
The butterflies liked the complint. Furthermore, it appeared the butterflies could hear and understand Kazumi’s telepathic voice.
“Sister Kazumi. Talk to my cub too!” Lupa insisted. She didn’t want to lose her position as the right-hand girl. The top woman position must be hers, she believed.
[Fine. Let’s see how good our cute little wolf is.]
Kazumi approached the cute small erald wolf and then decided to say an order.
[Roll. Co on, cute little wolf. Roll on your back and give a heart-throbbing cute pose.]
The small erald wolf tilted its head and looked at Kazumi with a puzzled stare. The wolf heard her telepathic voice as well. However, the wolf doesn’t know what the order is, so it excitedly wagged its tail and stared. *Woof*
[Hmm... I know! The wolf and butterflies are like when Vincent communicated with Lupa and Plow the first ti they t! They must be able to hear our words and understand us by hearing the feelings in our soul. Like a soul synch.]
“Yes! Yes! They are Soul Pets and not our children! We adopted them and not I... ahem, didn’t give birth to them.” Vincent took the beneficial developnt made by the truth seeker Kazumi to change their thinking.
Lupa looked at Vincent with an unhappy frown. “But we mated. That ans children will follow, right? Ester taught . My sister doesn’t lie to .” She asked, placing Ester’s reputation at stake.
[Hmm... my mana can’t keep up, and I’m sharing so of the upkeep with Ester. We don’t have much ti, though.]
Kazumi notified. Then she decided to change the course of the subject to the next phase.
[It would be best if you nad your children because it is sothing more important than your lover’s quarrel.]
“They are Soul Pet born from the bonds of our souls. But Kazumi is right. Let’s give them a na.” Vincent insisted on keeping his stance on the matter and prepare for the naming process.
“Okay. Please na my cub my mate.” Lupa liked the idea, so she asked for a na first.
“Vincent, I don’t know many good nas, so could you na our children?” Ester continued with a slight blush. Ester decided to describe the butterflies as her children. Similar to how people call their pets their children.
“Fine... so be it. I will na the Soul Pets.” Vincent sighed, surrendering in defeat, “And Lupa, I will teach you how the world works later.”
“So... hmm... Lupa ans female wolf, and Lupo is mainly for a male wolf. Because the little erald wolf is without gender, the erald wolf shall be nad Wolfie since it’s small, cute, and cuddly like its soul owners.” Vincent nad the small living crystallized erald wolf born out of their soul bond Wolfie.
Lupa held the small erald wolf between her arms and cuddled while saying cheerfully, “My cub is called Wolfie. Are you happy, Wolfie?”
*Woof, woof*
“I can see your smile, but... I don’t understand you.” Lupa revealed a strange discovery. She couldn’t understand Wolfie’s words.
[Lupa, I don’t think you need to worry that much. Everything in the Soul Domain is communicated via soul wavelengths. So, it might take ti to start understanding each other completely. Maybe after getting used to each other’s wavelength, could you begin to understand Wolfie.]
[Wolfie is a newborn, after all.]
“Okay, sister, but invite when you can. Can you?” Lupa asked to et with Wolfie from ti to ti.
[Now I can. Da-da da, the new skill that brought everyone here is called Soul Invite. It invites People connected with anyone linked to my soul here. It ans since I’m connected with Vincent like you and Ester, I can invite the two of you here to et with Wolfie and...]
[Vincent, what’s the na of the butterflies? Don’t leave Ester and hanging here.]
