Chapter 313: My Dear Transmigrator
As his fingers brushed against her neck, a
mark was placed on her neck, appearing
similar to a collar.
While the Servitude Mark was being created, Ghost Queen could easily break it by just resisting. However, she also understood the consequences of resisting at this movement.
Even though her heart was telling her to resist and not place her life in another person’s hand, her mind was telling her that this was the right choice. She did not resist the mark, listening to her mind in the end.
After a few minutes, the Servitude Mark was completed and the Ghost Queen became a servant of Eren. With the Mark around her neck, she couldn’t do anything that might bring harm to her master.
Although the mark restricted her freedom to an extent, it didn’t enslave her. She still had the right to reject his commands if they were something that might lead her to death.
Other than that, she was also quite free to do whatever she pleased as long as it didn’t hurt Eren’s interest.
She only had to follow instructions from Eren that weren’t life threatening for her, which was the exact reason she accepted it. If he could just command her to die, she never would have accepted it.
After the mark was successfully casted, Eren took off his fingers. When he had first heard about the Ghost Queen, he expected that he might have to fight her.
He didn’t expect to subdue her with such ease. Not only did he not have to actually fight but he also won a decent subordinate. Then again, he hadn’t forgotten how dangerous it had been.
If he didn’t have poison immunity, he would have been at her mercy instead, maybe even used as an ingredient himself.
With everything else settled, Eren turned towards Aster, gazing at the Transmigrator
floating inside the container.
“How long before he is back in life?”
“Five minutes, or maybe ten if it takes
longer,” The Ghost Queen stepped
forward, standing next to Eren, looking at
his innocent-looking face.
Looking at his face alone, he didn’t look like
someone who could bring terror in the
hearts of people of all four continents with
just his name.
“Are you really the one who killed him?”
she asked, still finding it incredible.
“He touched what he shouldn’t have
touched,” Eren answered, still
remembering the pain of using the unseal
talisman which still made him slightly
hesitant.
Even though he had another unseal
talisman, he was afraid to use it as he didn’t
want to go through the same pain while
losing his conscience.
Everything that happened when he used
the Talisman was like a dream. It was as if
his body was being controlled purely by instincts with his consciousness sitting in the back seat, only observing it like it was a dream.
It was good to go with instincts as they used the instincts of Ren Necroline. However, there were times when these
same instincts could create more troubles
for him, especially if the enemy wasn’t Aster but the Overlord herself.
The Ghost Queen looked at Eren in silence.
With his reaction, he didn’t appear to be lying. Moreover, who else could kill Aster if not Devourer?
“How are you going to control him after
bringing him back to life?” Eren asked, bringing Ghost Queen out of her daze.
“I placed a seal on his soul. It is similar to the Servitude Mark that you placed on me, but on a deeper level. With that, he can’t
betray me,” Mist explained the mechanism behind her seal as dealing with ghosts was her domain. It wasn’t easy for other people
to understand it.
“Change the owner of that seal to me,”
Eren stated without the slightest change in his expressions.
“What?” The Ghost Queen was frozen in
place. Eren was even trying to steal her greatest weapon from her?
“I will let him help you, but I want to be the
one to control him. Moreover, if you tried it, I can promise that it’s only a matter of time before you die at his hands,” Eren lazily replied, tapping the glass lightly.
“I will die at his hands? That’s impossible. He can’t break the seal. How can he kill me?” The Ghost Queen looked at Eren as if
he was talking about something absurd. She had full faith in her seal.
“There are two souls inside his body. You
just bound one soul. Do you think it is enough to save you?” Eren answered, not caring in the least about her shock. “If I’m not wrong, you only found the
stronger soul which shouldn’t be the main
soul at this point. Find the second and weaker soul and bind it as well. Moreover,
bind both of them to me. Or else, you already know the consequences.” Eren didn’t have to say anything anymore.
Although the Ghost Queen found the
notion of a person having two intact souls
inside their bodies absurd, it was easy to verify it. All it needed was a little more
time.
The only problem was giving Eren the control of Aster. Still, it didn’t put her life in
danger so she couldn’t do anything but agree unless she wanted to die. “Give me a minute.” She quickly rushed
back to stop the process. If it was indeed true, she needed more time for it. Instead of ten minutes, it might even stretch for half an hour.
While the Ghost Queen was rushing towards another part of the lab, Eren stood with his back resting against a Container. Inside the container, the two souls of Aster had grown chaotic.
“How did he know about me?” The Aster from Earth exclaimed in disbelief. “If he enslaved me as well, then we can never gain freedom!”
“I also find it hard to believe. With your undiscovered soul, I was confident that we could free ourselves. How did this man find
out what even Ghost Queen couldn’t! Moreover, why did he say that he killed
us?” The Aster from this world was just as confused.
“That’s right! The person who killed us was
definitely Eren. It wasn’t Devourer, unless… Devourer is him?’
“This…”
“If you’re awake, then I really look forward
to meeting you again, my dear Transmigrator,” Eren slowly spoke, as if interfering in their conversation, making both of them
go
silent..
