Chapter 1278: Souls, Memories, and System
Ning understood what it was that the system was trying to say. He could imagine numerous distant suns glaring at him that were reflected back in through the emptiness of his inner world.
Not only the light, but the radiation itself would cause a lot of problems if it all looped back around. The heat alone would cause more problems than one could imagine.
Ning couldn’t imagine how bad it would be if space in his inner world was myroptoid instead of spherical.
“That makes me wonder,” Ning said. “How does my inner world function exactly? Is it in a different space from this universe? Or is it like a spatial pocket in this universe?”
“Hmm… I see,” Ning said, trying to think of how it would work. “The outer barrier is strong enough to never get destroyed, right?”
“The Galactic one did leave behind some energy,” Ning said. “Whatever, let’s move on to the other question I had. About Souls and Systems, and how reincarnation removes memories. I am allowed to learn of this, correct?”
“Go on then,” Ning said. “I’m waiting.”
“Damage? You mean the taint?” Ning asked. He remembered the owner of the beast’s bloodline system disintegrating as his soul was way too damaged to return back to the realm of the souls.
“Those sorts of damage can be healed?” he asked. That was certainly the first time he had heard about it.
“Then what? It just dies?” Ning asked.
“A weak spot? What sort?” Ning asked.
‘Garbage dump…’ Ning thought for a moment. Something about this felt familiar.
“Oh right,” he remembered. “Nova had a similar soul, didn’t she? One on the verge of being destroyed. I wonder how she’s doing. Well, she must be dead already.”
It wasn’t fun knowing how long it had been since he had left the other universe. There was no doubt that almost all of them were dead.
“Anyway,” Ning said. “I think I understand a little about how Souls lose their memories during reincarnation. What I don’t understand is why they remember at all when they have systems. What lets them have memories?”
Ning stayed silent for a while, taking in the information. “That was quite informative. Thank you,” he said. It felt as if he now knew everything he needed to.
“Although, I do have one final question,” he said. “What is a system… exactly?”
