Chapter 594: Something new

Or at least that was what he tried to do but that sort of news was rather hard not to focus on. Thankfully something happened that distracted him from it as Hephaestus created a crude Asauchi , a weapon soul in a way that was blank until the essence of ones soul was imprinted on it. Hephaestus was not happy with the way it turned out however as the thing was barely functional and prone to violent outbursts against its creator which was a sign of mistakes having been made in the creation process.-

In this case an incorrect ratio of hollow and soul reaper energy with there being too much hollow energy. Nick explained this and the goddess didn't hesitate to dismantle the Asauchi to try again while Nick took a bit of the excess hollow energy for himself. The energy was surprisingly obedient when he took it into his essence. A day later Nick still hadn't noticed much of a change in himself and thought it was because he hadn't used enough energy. It was at that point however that his entire soul quivered in pain. Apparently the hollow energy was waiting in the part of his essence tied to his mana and that part had been hit with his domain transition at this moment.-Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

The second change was that the body had a tail now that was a bit like a mix of a serpent and a bird as it was long and slender but had small feathers along it's whole length and a fan of large ones at the tip. The third change however was in the form of a white bonelike mask covering the mouth and jawline of the face with rows of sharp predatory teeth clear to see.(A/N: Think Harribel.) The final change was the one that interested Nick the most however as the body had glowing energy channels snaking across it's entire form that gave the whole thing a sinister vibe.-

Thanks to the knowledge that came with the crafting style Nick could tell what parts came from the hollow side of things but these energy channels didn't belong to any part of any of his previous races so he assumed it was part of his new one. Controlling this new body was an interesting thing as well for Nick as he felt almost without limit while doing so. The body also came with a new innate ability that made him slightly annoyed , soul devouring and manipulation.-

Nick could now grab a raw soul with his bare hands while in this body and even consume it in order to grow his power much the same way a hollow would. It was very similar to his netherworld grasp but didn't allow him to modify a soul that he was holding so the artifact could still have it's own uses. Casting magic with this new body was also not only very easy but even seemed to amplify it's effects slightly. The body had a trait that Nick knew would be irritating to deal with as well since it could regenerate on it's own in next to no time at all.
