"Won't this hurt both of us?" Gabriel asked after a brief pause. Even though Karyk made it sound safe, but it was dangerous, especially for the main soul, which was going to be weaker for at least a month after the soul separation since this processing was akin to it cutting a part of itself.

It was as if they were both losing something if they separated since they were one and the same. Even though it was good for them to have separate lives as they could do more things at the same time, but still, something seemed amiss.

Karyk also knew everything that Gabriel was telling him. He was already feeling the pain of Separation. He was sure that if the process was successful, he was at least going to be in a weakened state for a month.

The Banquet of the Southern General was going to be held soon. He didn't know if it was going to be canceled after what happened, but if that wasn't the case, then he was going to miss the banquet.

However, there were not many options. He could either let the Corruption take place.

In that case, he would've had to fight all the Generals and the King of the Upper Realm while he still had all his strength, shifting the focus away from the Goddess of Light. However, he didn't want his destiny to be written by someone else.

Karyk didn't respond to Gabriel, simply closing his eyes. There was not a single trace of pain on his face even though he felt most of the brunt of this soul separation since his main soul was the core.

Feeling as if Karyk was ignoring him, Gabriel also didn't speak further. In any case, he could understand what Karyk was going through. Even though they had separated, they used to be one person. They were still connected, even though by a slim thread of destiny.

From the one merged soul of Karyk and Gabriel, two souls started taking shape, in a process that appeared to last for an eternity.

In the meantime, the outside world was in turmoil as the hunt for Karyk had intensified. Every single trace of him was being followed but since he had traveled through a void to somewhere, it was very hard to find him.

It was as if there were thousands of traces of him in the chaotic void that seemingly went in all the directions, making it impossible for anyone to find him.

The news about Karyk's sudden appearance and disappearance also reached the Goddess of Light in the Northern World. She knew that Karyk wasn't the type of period to appear and disappear without doing anything. It was clear that he was in the Wester Clan to achieve some goal.

However, he hadn't managed to do anything other than reveal his identity. In a case like that, Karyk would've killed everyone in the Wester Clan to contain the news. However, he instead seemingly ran away. That meant something was wrong with him.

"It looks like his soul already..." She muttered, shaking her head lightly. "That was faster than expected. But it's good. Now he'll understand the importance of time and understand his role."

Two days passed. By now, the Wester Clan Patriarch had realized that his son was missing. He was nowhere to be found. It was as if he just disappeared into thin air. In his room, only some traces of the void could be felt, which was similar to what Karyk used.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

It was clear that Karyk took him. However, why? That was the question in everyone's mind. Many people thought that Karyk wanted to use the young man's life to threaten them and in essence, control them.

However, they understood that it was futile. Even though the Patriarch loved his son and daughter, it wasn't to the extent where he was going to betray the Upper Realm and stand against the Southern General for them.

In fact, he already considered his son to be dead. In any case, it was his daughter who he considered to be more talented. So the heir of the Wester Clan was safe.

Because of the search for Gabriel, the banquet of the Southern General was supposed to be delayed. However, surprisingly enough, that wasn't the case. It was said that the banquet was going to be held on the same day, while the search for Karyk continued. However, the purpose of that Banquet had changed.

Instead of being a simple celebration that it was supposed to be, now it had another purpose. It was the meeting place of all the Upper Realm Generals who were coming to this place. As for their purpose in holding the meeting here, it was obvious for everyone.

The tension in the air was palpable as everyone waited for the generals to arrive. Meanwhile, Karyk's whereabouts were still unknown, and the fate of the war rested on the shoulders of the generals.

Whispers and murmurs filled the entire Southern World as people speculated on what the outcome of the meeting would be.

****

Back in the depths of the Southern World, neither Gabriel nor Karyk had any ideas as to what was happening outside. They were more focused on their own troubles.

Fortunately, after two whole days, the process was almost completed. However, the space around that place appeared to be broken at places, as the massive amount of Soul Energy kept creating chaos.

Fortunately, the Goddess of Nature continued to manage her barrier.

After some time, the chaotic soul energy stopped entirely. It disappeared without a single trace, as if it was never there in the first place as soon as Karyk opened his eyes. He was finally awake.

He stood up, glancing into the distance where multiple vines appeared to be creating a protective shield.

As soon as the soul pressure disappeared, a small opening appeared in the vines, from where the Goddess of Nature and Jia were able to catch a glimpse of the young man.
