Chapter 1254: Tasting Divinity (1)



"Alright. Let's get this done. Even though our possessed self established millions of beings for us to Bind ourselves to, we are going to have to complete the process," a phantom said.

And indeed, this was the case, but Mortal Binding was supposed to take several hundred days for the average combatant. It only made sense, as normal individuals didn't get to experience things that touched upon the boundary of Divinity so often, unlike Skullius.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

And speaking of this comparison...

"It shouldn't take us too long, right? Our possessed self already had experience with Mortal Binding and Ember Tasting because of Fulgardt. I believe the only thing that was stopping him from crossing to Divinity was because he was still at the Incandescent Stage," another phantom theorised.

"I suppose, but the scant experiences of Fulgardt we have received through our alter's memories are a little diluted because of our own memories being mixed in. Either way, it shouldn't take months, or days for us to get a hang of Mortal Binding or Ember Tasting." "You guys are pretty confident with this one," Skullius remarked.

"We don't really have a reason to doubt now, do we? We were already on the threshold to Divinity. It shouldn't be a problem to crossover after all we have been through. I should remind you, we also have quite a lot of experience with inhabiting other people's bodies. That should contribute somewhat too, I think."

Skullius would have nodded in agreement.

Even discounting what Fulgardt's memories were bringing to the table, he also had rich supernatural experiences.

"Alright. Let's do it," Skullius said. "So, I suppose I'm going to have to infuse more of [Just Light] into the Masterpieces scattered across the timelines?"

"No," a phantom said. "Let's start with something close. Let's infuse both [Evil Darkness] and [Just Light] into the Stark Troopers first. If that proves insufficient, we can then extend our reach to the Masterpieces. We should probably make sure to release them afterwards though. I dread us becoming... immoral."

"Oh, I see. Sounds good," Skullius said.

The phantoms grew silent and he set to focus.

Some of the duplicates of the skills he had made were still exposed outside the seed. Skullius would have them imbued into the black seed after he was done using them, and join in himself.

The general Stark Troops ceased what they were doing and sat down, backs straight. They calmed themselves, took deep breaths and surrendered control of their bodies. The Stark Constellations on their foreheads sparked fiercely with Ju`wtte.

Skullius felt their collective will and it warmed his heart.

'You socketholes. I didn't ask you to do that,' he thought to himself, but joy bubbled within him. This level of trust...

The Unlimited Stars didn't so readily give themselves up, however. They knew if Skullius required that of them, he needed only to command them. Their bodies surged with staggering power, and Elita, who was in their company, frowned.

She felt the same odd signature of energy vaguely all around the Empyrean Bosom. She couldn't understand the purpose and meaning behind it.

"Don't think too much," Grim said to her with a grin, his face practically becoming the sun's cousin. A dark mist whirled around his torso. "This sort of thing happens a lot more often

than you'd think."

Elita could only believe Grim.

All the other Unlimited Stars resumed what they had been doing prior.

Skullius was pleased.

'How reliable,' he thought.

Now that all 138 of the Stark Troops were imbued with [Evil Darkness] and [Just Light], he was

free to begin attempting to truly grasp this feeling of pseudo-permanence. At present,

Skullius existed within all the Stark Troops. He was as Mortally Bound as could be.
