Chapter 326: Churned soul energy

After carefully listening to Shane, who lectured him, Jason could only nod his head because he could feel that problems with his black origin flame occurred.

"I'm also unsure what is going on with my black origin flame, but I can say for sure that it has nothing to do with me being uncomfortable inside the abandoned lands or something like that.

Rather than that, I felt like my black-origin flame was revolting against itself, which is weird. I can tell that something about it will change soon but I can't say for sure, what exactly it will be!

It might be that the black origin flame is about to meet one criterion for its evolution into a Tier-1 origin flame, but I'm not sure about that."

Taking a deep breath, Jason pondered what else could be the reason for his black origin flame behaving weirdly.

However, instead of making assumptions, he wanted to figure out the real reason, which shouldn't be much of a challenge.

Shane only noticed that Jason entered his soul world when a faint golden hue began to envelop his head, which was Jason's individual indicator that he entered his soul world.

As such he thought that his disciple was trying to get to know his flame's issues which was a good start.

An origin flame was different from a normal flame because it not only had unique abilities but could also become stronger and grow as long as it was able to annex more soul energy.

Other than that, Dalia had explained to Shane that origin flames would become sentient at a certain point and that every single one of them had an individual personality and unique character traits.

Unfortunately, Shane didn't have an origin flame and couldn't really understand how a flame could be sentient and what it might feel like to have a flame with an individual personality, which sounded ridiculous on his head.

'I'm that case, aren't origin flames just unique elemental beings?'

Thinking about that, he was not even sure how different fire elemental beings were compared to origin flames, because both were sentient.

The biggest difference of an origin flame was most likely its unique abilities and special function to act as a soulbond with limitless potential.

As such, Shane started to see an origin flame as something similar to a superior elemental being without knowing if that was right or wrong.

Inside his soul world, Jason was instantly greeted by a warm heat wave coming from the center, where his origin flame was situated.

Approaching the center, he could see how thick his soul connection with the black origin flame became.

Standing before it, Jason noticed that it floated towards him in its slow play to play around, seeking his attention.

This felt like a deja vu and Jason asked himself if it learned that from Artemis and Scorpio.

However, before he could think more about his black origin flame's behavior, Jason noticed something which excited him.

Unknowingly, the black origin flame started to construct a fortified soul conjunction that looked extremely crude and unstable.

Nevertheless, the fortified soul conjunction was already a good starting point for him to start with his investigation as it was the most likely reason for his black origin flame to act weirdly.

Compared to the long gaseous thread that represents his soul connection with the origin flame, the fortified soul conjunction was, minuscule in size and not even 1/100th of their soul connection's whole length.

This was rather uncommon because a fortified soul conjunction was commonly known for evenly spreading along or around the soul connection.

Jason thought that it was probably something unique to origin flames and decided that he would ask Dalia if there was something he couldn't understand.

However, after the vigorous black flames bumped into him inside his soul world, he suddenly started to understand what it desired and for what reason!

"You need soul energy to establish a fortified soul connection with me? Is that why the first try failed and looks like this?" Jason asked in astonishment.

Carefully looking at his origin flame, he felt like his words were exactly what it wanted to tell him.

As such, he just said

"You are allowed to annex soul energy from me, but not every vacant soul energy unit within me. Use only what you need, nothing more! I still have to increase my soul energy for other purposes and we don't want to work counterproductive, right?"

Hearing what Jason said, the black origin flame flickered overjoyed before it floated back to the center of his soul world where the soul world core and expelled soul energy was situated.

Without any hesitation it absorbed 200 soul energy units which it burned within its flame, decreasing his total amount of soul energy by 200 units as if they never existed.

Seeing that his soul energy decreased from 16,000 units to 15,800 units, Jason couldn't help but feel a sting in his heart because these 200 soul energy units were his hard work for one day.

Sighing deeply, he hoped that it was worth the effort, only to notice that the black origin flame began to work on their fortified soul conjunction.

The crude and unstable part was already about to be reconstructed which was extremely interesting and the only thing he began to ask himself was about how much soul energy units establishing the fortified soul conjunction required.

However, this was not something he could estimate just like that because he didn't know how long his 200 soul energy units could be used for.

Waiting for his black origin soul to finish the first part was also not something Jason wanted to do as it might take a long time.

It already took almost 3 days to construct the unstable and crude fortified soul conjunction.

Thus, Jason decided that it was not necessary to figure out how much soul energy it would cost to complete the fortified soul conjunction as long as he had enough soul energy.

Leaving the soul world after taking one more glance at his hard-working origin flame, Jason started to explain everything to his master, who could only look at him with squinted eyes, not knowing whether to celebrate or beat him up.

"To put it simply, your origin flame tried to establish a fortified soul conjunction but couldn't absorb and 'burn'(?) your soul energy to create a proper one. Through this, your control over the black origin flame was slacking off during the last few days. Now that you allowed it to absorb your soul energy, it started to work again... Once it is done, you will have your third fortified soul conjunction?"

Nodding his head without any meaning, Jason also blurted out

"I also feel like creating the fortified soul conjunction could solve my problem with the black origin flame's evolution!"

Taking a deep breath, Shane felt the desire to beat up Jason. Only the thought about Dalia's shocked expression could calm him down as he awaited her reaction.

'Is there something special about him that attracts his soulbonds? Even the black origin flame wants to form a fortified soul conjunction with him. It had only been a few months after Jason contracted it... Dalia will hate that!!!"
