Chapter 619 Cap 617: The Rebirth Of The False Hero Part 3(Chapter Preview)

Even as the cocoon formed I felt my energy, mainly my nearly depleted spirit energy being pulled into that cocoon, a gray energy was also being sucked from the Demon Goddess Kalistos statue.

Because of this process, I can feel everything in this space, so it feels like the statue calls out to what is inside the cocoon while a presence that I can't discern extends from the statue to the cocoon, but something seems wrong, I just can't say what.

Soon the cocoon begins to pulse, with each pulse the vital energy of the surroundings is absorbed, I can clearly feel it.

It feels like something inside this cocoon is empty, I can feel an Aura slowly spreading out of the cocoon, this Aura was almost blank, all I could feel was fear, innocence, fury, and curiosity.

These were such contradictory feelings, this Aura was spreading around the surroundings, but I felt it focus first on the Goddess statue, then on my Astral Body before getting more and more involved.

"(Empty...how to fill...)"

A strange, misshapen voice was sounding in my mind, I could feel an endless loneliness in that voice.

"(Does that voice come from the cocoon?)" (I)

I take a closer look at the situation and realize that it was because of the Aura that came out of the cocoon, it is functioning as a means for the creature inside to communicate.

Perhaps the emptiness that speaks is caused by the lack of the Soul fragment that was inside him or the lack of something else he considers important.

"(Regardless of the reason, the answer will always be the same for me...)" (I)

"Everything begins and ends with desire, what makes a person get up in the morning is the desire to get up, what makes a soldier fight is the desire to protect, what makes a child study is the desire to learn." (I)

"What's your wish?" (I)

Pov Henrique:

I don't know what exactly is going on, but this seems to be the special awakening ability that Zenos possesses that the Goddess transmitted to me via her message.

I've never seen or heard of anything of this magnitude, Zenos can affect both body and soul at the same time, but he doesn't do it selfishly, it seems like he's trying to give a shape following the High's desire for his skill.

I look at the strange dark being he's summoned, it's supposed to be an Astral Body, but the form it has taken seems to mean something far more than what I see in Zenos.

Right after the energy cocoon formed and started to pulse, I suddenly felt something, Zenos' gaze was surprised and then serious as he looked around before stopping at the cocoon, then he started talking loudly.

I heard his words, those words carry enormous weight, I can feel a mixture of emotions and a depth in these casually spoken words.

Also, I can see Zenos' own Aura vibrate with every word he says, when I look into his eyes I only see an eternity of endless darkness that makes me take a step back.

"(What was that...)" (I)

When I look again the cocoon pulses even stronger and faster, when I look back at Zenos his eyes are normal again.

------------

"(My will...will...)"

"(You... enemy?)"

"I'm not your enemy and I don't intend to be." (I)

"(Name...want name...name?)"

"..." (I)

Suddenly the cocoon starts to break, while I feel all this Aura spin around me, it was a strange sensation, it was as if there was someone touching me, seeing and smelling and hugging everything at the same time.

Ding!

<[ Choose a name for Soul of Heroic descent ]>

I don't know if I should do this, the last time I gave a name like that was when I met Ragnar.

"(She is not suitable as my Champion, take care of her in my name...)" (Demon Goddess Kalistos)

I could hear a voice that was sometimes young and other times sounded old, this voice seemed to have been spoken inches from my ear, but I knew it was just an impression, this voice was in my head and I knew whose it was.

I could feel a tone of pleading and sincerity in the voice, maybe I'm wrong, but it seemed like the Goddess wasn't able to recognize the creature still being born within this crystal as her Champion.

"(One more won't make a difference...)" (I)

The moment I chose to name it, I felt a connection forming, memory fragments were coming to my mind, one of these memory fragments made me understand that the creature inside already had a name that it wanted, but wanted someone else to give it this name.

Sigh

"I give you the name Hinata." (I)

Ding!

Suddenly the cocoon breaks completely, but its fragments have been absorbed by the silhouette enveloped in a thick mist, so the misshapen Aura that has spread around the surroundings focuses on this figure as it enters its body.

Soon the mist disappeared but nothing was there, when I feel something strange behind me and I turn around, there was a child, a girl with pale white skin and long gray hair, she was wearing a black shirt with a large vertical white eye drawn on the front, gray short pants and a gray crystal scale jacket that looked like it had eyes inside the crystals.

Her eyes had black sockets with purple and golden irises, and her appearance may appear Human, but with these eyes, her non-Human nature can be seen from afar.

"Will you fulfill my will?" (Hinata)

Her voice was sweet but strangely monotone, her face showed no emotion, but her eyes were bright with anticipation.

"Only you can fulfill your will, only you can deny your will, what do you want?" (I)

"Family..." (Hinata)

The little girl smaller than me grips my hand tightly, her words carry a great emotional weight that her face doesn't show, I feel like I'm in the orphanage again having to take care of many younger siblings who were eagerly waiting to belong in a family.

"This is what you want?" (I)

She nods her head innocently, she was so cute I can't resist rubbing her head.

"Then we will be a family." (I)

Ding!
