Chapter 221: Benladann's New Abilities

-----

Benladann is very intense… After we had breakfast, she made me do it with her while taking a warm bath…

And with this Endless Libido Skill popping up whenever I feel tired, I have effectively become a sex-machine.

Nonetheless, we eventually finished doing it and took a relaxing bath.

I suppose this passion might be temporary, we are just starting our sexual life, later on, maybe she'll finally calm down and do things slowly, especially after our baby is born.

First of all, the first thing we assessed was… What the heck was Chaos' gift?

For that, I checked her status…

…

She got Chaos Divine Protection and… Soul Refinement is her new Abilities.

How interesting…

…

[Chaos' Divine Protection]

The Divine Protection of the Primordial Deity of Chaos. It enhances the user's growth and all of its capabilities exponentially. Giving it the ability to develop the Chaos Attribute to greater heights.

…

[Soul Refinement]

A special Ability that grants the user the ability to refine its own soul through the absorption and assimilation of energies. It also grants the power to devour souls.

…

I see those gifts are very crucial, with this, she should be able to grow stronger and even enhance her soul power.

"Wonderful, these gifts are actually very good. Try eating this."

I gave Benladann a small monster soul, she grabbed it as I had made it materialize through the Death Magic Spell "Visualization".

She touched it and then put it into her mouth. Like the same vacuum that eats all the food, she ate the soul like a noodle and realized she got a bit stronger…

"Eh? I ate a soul…" she muttered.

"It seems that the ability works properly, that's a relief. Now, let's begin."

I made Benladann sit down over an ice table as I told her to close her eyes and trust me.

"I'll leave it to you then."

"Thank you, good night, dear."

She closed her eyes and began to sleep quite easily. She told me she was able to do this some time ago, transporting her mind into the place where Miranda was.

After she began to sleep, I used my powers to inspect her soul with great detail. I dived my Soul Eyes into her soul and entered the abyssal dark sea that her soul was, so immense it resembled an endless cloud of darkness.

I shaped my own soul and created a small avatar of my soul, still connected with my soul.

I dived into this darkness within a new perspective, as if I had entered a new world inside of her soul, an unexplored one.

With the aid of the System, we began to inspect the components of her soul.

The first thing we found was a large quantity of miasma.

Miasma is corrupted energy that becomes almost "radioactive" and therefore dangerous, it can infect things, souls, and more, and mutate them… it also produces dungeons to emerge naturally, and it even can mutate normal animals into monsters, this is why normal animals are incredibly rare.

If exposed to it, people might mutate into monsters too, or end up dying or weakening.

My soul too might take damage, but I was guarding my own soul with a powerful Death Magic Spell named [Energy Absorption Barrier], which does what it says, absorbs energy, even mana, or the blows of attacks. It is not all-powerful, but it can guard me against things like these.

We began to inspect the soul component deeper as I traveled through it. I found out that there was larger and more chaotic darkness, which I have dived into.

My barrier began to crack and fade away, but I reinforced it with my great mana pool.

Not enough, deeper!

I moved deeper into the entire thing, using everything I had at my disposal. Quickly after, I reached the darker darkness, chaos emerged before my eyes like spirals of eternal destruction.

This was inside her soul.

No, this was part of her soul.

I touched it and my hand began to disintegrate, I quickly pulled back, it wasn't something I could fight against yet, it was too dangerous.

I moved back a bit more and inspected everything. I quickly decided to pull back after that.

"What did we got?" I asked the System.

<Analyzing… Apparently, Benladann's soul is mostly composed of three major components. Miasma, Chaos Attribute Divine Energy, and Corrupted Primordial Essence.>

Her soul was really not normal…

"What do you think we can do?"

<The thing that could be done as of now is let Benladann devour more souls that can become Soul Mass, something that she critically lacks. After that, with your help and death magic, a Soul Membrane can be created, and through her Soul Refine, this membrane can be refined and fused into the soul and therefore strengthened by eating more souls… it is an arduous task, however.>

"Seems easy enough. As long as it is within my grasp, I can do it no problem."

I woke up Benladann after a bit more investigation and let her have her way with hundreds of souls I had captured all night long using my Soul Net, she was happy because she found herself growing stronger by eating them and was quite gluttonous as well.

"I never thought souls would taste so refreshing!" she pointed out.
