Novel Bin Chapter 588 Parting Gift
And the important thing was that these were just gifts. Not the blessings given by Brokkr and Eitri. Yet, the effects they would be able to achieve using these gifts had put their mind in a frenzy because they were no different than cheat codes from their perspective.
Kahn didn\'t bother going into the details of these 3 gifts at this moment. Because too many questions arose in his mind related to the blacksmithing craft after receiving them.
Soon, Blackwall and Kahn started discussing a few things related to craft which opened up a new world to both of them after hearing answers from both the brothers.
Obviously, this knowledge wasn\'t in any books and records or even someone like Throk wasn\'t aware of them.
And finally, after they both felt a sense of satisfaction…
"Alright. I think it\'s about time we leave." spoke Kahn.
"Wait… we must give a parting gift to this titan lad." said Brokkr hurriedly.
"Huh? Didn\'t you already give us gifts? There\'s more?" asked Kahn with a befuddled expression.
"For him, not you." spoke Eitri and continued.
"You\'re a chosen hero… one in a very precarious situation at that.
If you were to die… he will die too since he\'s your creation and his entire existence is bound to you as he\'s not a natural birth of the world.
And we don\'t want all of our representatives to die.
It is important to us that at least one should be present in Vantrea." spoke Eitri with a complex expression on his face.
As if he wanted to explain more but couldn\'t because of some unspeakable rule or restriction.
"What do you plan to do?" asked Blackwall in a serious voice as he gazed at both the dwarven deities, his face having concern displayed all over it.
But the brothers didn\'t explain anything and quickly appeared in front of Blackwall who was of the same height as them in his titan form.
And before he could even react, they both placed their right and left palm respectively on his chest at the same time as a bright white aura was released from their bodies and encapsulated inside Blackwall through their palms.
Blackwall\'s titanic figure shuddered and stumbled for a second but he quickly adjusted his footing.
Eitri then opened the book that was hanged on his waist and started chanting some sort of archaic spell and hundreds of magic formations appeared around Blackwall\'s body.
And the bright white light that was surrounding the abyss knight general started dispersing and got absorbed by Blackwall\'s body until it completely disappeared.
But the next moment… his eyes were full of shock and disbelief as he uttered in a stuttering voice.
"Master… I… I…"
"What did you do?!" asked Kahn with an alarmed expression to both the deities.
But instead of replying to him, both brothers revealed a light smile.
Instead of the brothers, it was Blackwall who answered him in a flabbergasted tone…
"I have a Soul."
----------------
A couple of minutes passed but not a single word was spoken by anyone. Kahn was dumbfounded while Blackwall was bamboozled as he could feel something new about himself.
As if he just received something he was missing all along ever since he was created by Kahn. And now, he found the final piece of the puzzle that made him whole.
"It\'s not entirely a true soul but a Pseudo-Soul.
Once he becomes a being comparable to a Godbeast, it\'ll transmute and become a true soul." said Eitri.
"His existence is no longer solely bound to you. Although that soul connection that you have with him still exists… he won\'t die automatically after your demise." spoke Brokkr as he folded his arms.
Kahn on the other hand was still having a hard time digesting this revelation.
First, it was Ceril and now Blackwall. Both received a Pseudo-Soul from the deities they met that made their existence free from Kahn in a way. Although they were still bound to him via the Synthesis Divine Ability, they wouldn\'t cease to exist in case Kahn died.
Finally after some time, he calmed down and accepted this fact.
He then told the brothers about Oliver who also received gifts from a Deity but didn\'t receive a pseudo-soul.
"This means Indra has already chosen an Apostle who is still alive in Vantrea.
Unless that one dies, the Sky Deity wouldn\'t go as far as giving a pseudo-soul to this Oliver you speak of." said Brokkr as he answered Kahn\'s questions.
Kahn also nodded as he thanked the deity for clearing this doubt.
This reason also explained why Velsharoon gave a pseudo-soul to Ceril since he had no representatives alive just like Brokkr and Eitri.
Even these two gave Blackwall a pseudo-soul for their personal reasons.
They didn\'t speak out loud but Kahn understood that these two dwarven deities were aware of his situation and knew that he might get killed one day.
Thus, they chose to do this for Blackwall.
And given how other deities like Indra were reserved about this sort of exchange… Kahn felt like there was some sort of price these 3 deities would have to pay for granting those pseudo-souls.
"Do not mention meeting us to anyone else other than you two and those who are bound to your soul. Otherwise, we will take back our gifts." forewarned Eitri in an authoritative tone.
Only now did Kahn understand why Ceril and Oliver only mentioned meeting the deities but didn\'t go into details about exactly what happened during their encounter even if they were linked through soul connection.
Their silence was kept in order to keep those gifts by the deities.
And now, Kahn could only tell his subordinates, the system and even Rathnaar about this because they were all linked to his soul.
But mentioning exactly what happened during their interactions with the deities with anyone else was a strict no-go for him.
Both Kahn and Blackwall then thanked the deities for everything that happened and the gifts they received.
Under the will of the Deities, both the Apostles disappeared from the room.
----------------
A few minutes later… Eitri spoke to his brother Brokkr.
"What do you think brother? Will he be able to handle it?" asked Eitri.
"Who knows. It\'s not like the other ones we made.
Even his predecessors couldn\'t tap into its full potential.
Well… we\'ll see if this child can surprise us." responded Brokkr with a serious countenance as if he was looking forward to something.
"If he does manage to do so… he might as well become the strongest of the new generation of summoned heroes.
Because among all the divine weapons we made for the chosen heroes..." spoke Eitri in an excited tone.
Brokkr also nodded and both the brothers spoke in unison with a look of anticipation.
"His Divine Weapon is our best creation."
