Chapter 785
Walking through the gate yielded a pleasant surprise, no matter how small it might have been. Ogilt, who was still standing guard, appeared to have at least looked through the bits of entertainment he’d been left with since Thera had gone to check on her newest uncle, showing that perhaps some of her talk had been good for him.
I’ll have to tell her later. He thought before going over to the spirit, giving a happy smile as he did. “Ogilt, I’ve come to check up on how things are going over here. You doing okay? Enjoy any of the stuff I left for you?”
“I’m as I always am, but I suppose it has helped me pass the time,” The spirit said. “It was… what are you doing?”
“Um, trying to chat with you?”
“No, the thing you’re doing to space, what is it?”
“What?”
Oh.
“Ahem, I managed to get a new skill that helps me let souls pass on faster,” He explained. “I’ve been practicing it all day since I need to make souls constantly too, I guess I didn’t realize that it would be noticeable.”
The great spirit stared at him in silence for a moment, not so much as moving until he finally spoke. “It may not be my domain and I may not be able to interact with them in such a way, but I can assure you Ben, whatever you may be doing to souls is not helping them pass on.”
