Chapter 383: The Little Bat and the Bewitcher
Ashe thought Valcas had something to tell him, but instead, he was asked a question. However, Ashe indeed had many things he wanted to know: “Start from after you died?”
Valcas seemed to have no intention of keeping secrets and said calmly, “After being killed by the Titan Executioner, my soul left my body, drawn downward by gravity.”
“It was like sinking into the deep sea, drifting unconsciously. But there were layers of filters in the deep sea. When a soul flows into the filters, many impurities are sifted out, and only then can my soul continue to sink. After passing through six layers of filters, I arrived at the Time Continent, constantly tumbling and floating, without even a self-consciousness.”
“But 72 hours after death, a drop of blood in my soul began to erupt and spread, binding me while also awakening my consciousness.”
Valcas pulled open her black robe, revealing a blood lotus on her collarbone.
For some reason, this blood lotus didn’t feel like a tattoo to Ashe but seemed to bloom from inside her body, much like the livor mortis Harvey had introduced to him many times before.
“And then I became the commander of the Tomb Keepers of the Blood Tomb.”
Ashe blinked: “Wait, where did that drop of blood in your soul come from? Why would there be blood in a soul?”
“I don’t know, I only know that this drop of blood was likely implanted in Shattered Lake Prison. Or rather, all Redeemed who die in the Blood Moon Tribunal must have a Blood Seed in their souls.”
