"Before that, I want to know about you... Do you have control over your soul?"
Waltner asked with fascination while looking at his eyes.
"I don't know how I can answer this... Control over my soul? My what ans?" Asked Nix taking his seat after Waltner took the seat opposite him with a fascinated expression on his face.
"I'd say, No... I don't know about the stuff my system helps in handling critical situations as you saw in the war."
"Hahaha, It is indeed true but, I guess you don't want to reveal things to this old man huh? I'll just turn a blind eye and stop nagging you from questioning further about how you killed a middle which is rather impossible."
"I have access to my soul realm and I used this"
[Soul release]
Anding to his command a translucent erged in front of him and kneeled.
"This is a soul knight who is under my command and I used this astral entity to kill the Middler."
"Wow... I am stunned and fascinated. I have never seen an astral entity. Anyways, coming back to how I can see middlers."
He stopped and looked at Nix with his eyes narrowed down as he nodded his head.
"I just can see the color of the souls and those that venture these lands. That is even if I beco blind I can still see the patterns of the world thanks to the middle that once attacked my clan house and almost massacred everyone. I gained control over my soul realm when it possessed and left ."
"Above all, I wasn't able to fight the middle neither the ones in my clan? Several people died and the purpose was to kill a young man who had a huge potential to beco an influencing figure of Empyrean."
"Sounds like people who have potential to threaten the authority of Empyrean gets assassinated or gets their paths blocked if they oppose the gods... All over this is the sa news. I believe, If those who were assassinated were alive they'd have already won over these trials but, sure they didn't even get the chance to grow further enough to threaten them" Nix contemplated to Waltner.
"Well, that's a given. There are only two choices to survive here. And both are the sa...Haha, Ironic isn't it?" Waltner shrugged.
"Yeah... Can't disagree but, what are you going to do next? Aren't you a follower of the corrupted gods?"
"Hmm, implying that how long am going to stay? I will indeed be the follower of corrupted gods. I can't risk things. Maybe it's fate. I'll be leaving today that's what I wanted to talk about..." Waltner said wearing a face of distress as Nix's face dulled down.
Sure they didn't share a bond but, they did have connection. They were friends although they weren't. He had helped him and Nix wanted to help him as well and watching him leave will sure be huge loss for him.
He was already guilty enough about killing Remo who was loyal to the end. Though he didn't portray those emotions he felt like things are falling apart.
"No... I didn't an it like that"
Nix said waving his hands in front of him in denial of Waltner's statent.
"Hahaha, Don't stress it, boy. I just played with my words. My reason to leave is that my clan mbers will be at risk and I think the path you chose will be cruel as such I am not ready to face any more tragedy. I hope you'll reach your goal But, we'll cut ties here. Though don't forget to seek when you need help, son."
Waltner said with a slight grin and rose from his place and patted Nix's shoulder and Nix looked up at him with a baffled look.
"You are destined for greatness but the path is sturdy doesn't an you'll not reach the end. Go out there and trample those you block the path no matter what. I know the cruelty of this world but, I am no savior and I know you aren't one but, make sure others don't ss with you. 'Even if it's them'," Waltner said looking at Nix's eye.
'Them' The word just cleared implied who he was talking about and why he didn't use their title. In any case, it seed like Waltner had his own reason and Nix respected that.
"Mr.Waltner... Thanks for everything until now. You played a major role in my life..."
Nix just and hugged the old man with a smile.
{My My how sentintal? It's not like he is going to die? He's just leaving to be safe and protect his loyal followers from getting into your ss.}
Astaroth shrugged.
Nix just eyes at him frowned.
'Shut the fuck up you ghost. You didn't leave your dagger.'
{I might have died if I fought the middle you know? I wonder if you'll be sentintal if I died.}
'I'll be happy.'
Nix said using their own telepathy and moved away from Waltner.
"See you"
Waltner slightly saluted and left through the entrance with a smirk
'I'll try my best to stop those who hinder you.' With a thought, Waltner left the building joining his mbers.
'Astaroth... I am truly into a big ss, isn't it? But...more importantly, you've grown weak?'
Nix questioned sitting in his seat.
{You received and transferred the force Grendon expelled. It crackled your soul realm along with everything that was attached to you. Both I and your chain received the damage as well. Don't you think it's a miracle that you survived? It was partly because of your chains you are alive.}
Astaroth explained.
Nix imdiately looked at his chain with a grateful smile on his face.
{You bastard won't thank but smile at your chains huh?}} He pouted.
"Well, It's not like I force you to stay with though. You should have chosen sobody else." Nix shrugged with a smirk.
