Age of Adepts

Chapter 892 - Soul Fusion



Chapter 892 Soul Fusion

Greem hadn’t seen her for a few months, yet Emelia had become even more beautiful again.

In contrast to Mary’s hot spiciness and Alice’s mysteriousness, Emelia had a phantasmal and ethereal lightness to her.

From her appearance, Emelia looked just like a young girl of fourteen or fifteen. She had a head of long, soft green hair and a seductively wicked and unruly smile could always be seen on her delicate face. She wore a long green robe woven of vines and plants that dragged against the ground as she walked, and she had a pretty crown of flowers on her head. Her dress had no sleeves, fully showing her long and slender fingers, the nails painted with the green juices of touch-me-nots, pretty and flirtatious.

With the maturity of age, Emelia was no longer as naughty as she had been when she was a kid. She was quiet and polite, greeting Greem respectfully the moment she entered the door, before silently standing at Gargamel’s side without another word.

This action seemed to be incongruent with her past personality!

When the pretty Emelia stood side by side with the old and balding Gargamel, it was hard to believe they were father and daughter. The contrast in appearance was too stark.

Greem narrowed his eyes. The Chip had been quietly scanning and probing for Emelia’s bodily attributes ever since she entered the room. With the different of two grade levels, the nature barrier surrounding Emelia could not stop the Chip’s scan waves. The information Greem was getting back caused him to frown.

“……”

“Please believe me. I am the daughter of Gargamel and Eva! Only…only I have fused with a foreign soul.”

“Fused…” Greem repeated, his eyes narrowing even further.

“Yes, fused; not devoured!” Emelia emphasized once more.

“Open up your soul. I have to check it myself!”

Emelia knew that this was something that had to be done. As such, she had no choice but to release her defense and allow Greem’s slightly searing spiritual appendages to extend into her mental sea.

It was just like a red-hot iron rod had been stuck into her mind and twisted about. Emelia’s body convulsed and her eyes rolled back into her head, tortured to the brink of death. However, she had no choice but to endure this agony and allow Greem to slowly search for what he wanted.

The pain of this process was not something that an ordinary person could endure!

That was why most spells that searched for and extracted knowledge would leave behind severe and irreversible mental damage in the victim. Even if the spell were to succeed, the victim would be driven to insanity or death!

Fortunately, Emelia was an adept. Her Spirit had undergone dozens of years of training and was a hundred times stronger than an ordinary person’s. In addition, Greem was as careful and gentle as he could be. These were the only factors stopping her from turning into an idiot.

When Greem’s Spirit slowly retreated from Emelia’s mental consciousness, she was drenched in sweat and twitching on the floor.

“No…now…you be…believe me, don’t you!” Even though it was only a simple sentence, Emelia stuttered and paused, her voice weak and powerless.

Her body had curled into a ball now as she lay on the floor, the hundreds of strange roots twisting about each other.

Greem brooded in silence.

The girl was not wrong. There used to be two independent souls existing in this body. However, the two souls had now fused perfectly, incapable of distinguishing between one or the other.

Once again, it was a fusion, not a devouring!

According to what she had said, one of the souls should be the mixed-blood descendant of Gargamel and Eva known as Emelia, while the other was a foreign soul known as Yara. If Yara’s soul had devoured Emelia, Greem would have killed her without any hesitation or mercy.

However, now that their souls had fused, Emelia was Yara and Yara was Emelia. There was no longer any distinction between the two. It was a difficult problem to deal with!

While Greem was investigating the girl’s soul, it was havoc outside his room. It seemed someone was wildly attacking the door to his chamber, loudly banging at his door protected by defensive arrays.

Greem hesitated for a moment and finally released the defensive restrictions on the door.

A loud bang rang out as the doors swung wide open. Eva charged in from the outside, disheveled and covered in blood.

That was probably the damage inflicted on her from the autonomous retaliation of the defensive restrictions.

If it wasn’t for Greem discovering her actions ahead of time and cutting off the retaliatory attacks, her wounds might have been even more severe.

The room of a Third Grade adept was not so easily broken into!

Forest Spirit Eva saw the twitching Emelia the moment she entered the room. She lunged forward and took her daughter into her arms while screaming furiously at Greem.

“What have you done to her? If anything happens to my daughter, I will put my life on the line against you.”

Gargamel rushed into the room covered in bruises, pulling at Eva’s arm with all he had.

“Don’t be impulsive. I’m the one…that asked for our lord’s help in today’s matter.”

A stifled slap rang out as a green vine smacked Gargamel away, leaving him rolling across the ground and moaning as he struggled to get up.

“If…if anything happens to our daughter, I…you, both of us don’t need to live any longer.”

Greem sat casually on his chair, silently watching as this family comedy unfolded.

In the end, the one that stopped Eva was Emelia.

Once Gargamel and his family left the room in a mess, Greem couldn’t help but narrow his eyes and mutter to himself, “Spore princess? Interesting…”
