Eating Souls In Another World Chapter 81
After a few more hours on the road Drake was finally able to spot the capital of Ouroboros kingdom."Wow…" Drake couldn't help being surprised. Though it was still aboun an hour away the sheer size of the settlement shocked him to no end. Dragon's Head was completely different from the cities they've passed this far. The walls surrounding it looked to be twnty meters tall made of giant stones. It had four gates pointing at each of the cardinal directions, behind them were the different districts of the city; the south was the commoners' area, the west was the merchants and craftsmen area were most of the inns and taverns would be as well. The east was the upper class quarters were the rich lived away from those they considered beneath them. Then there is the north were the king's castle and the nobles quarters were located.It was impossible to couldn how many buildings were stuffed inside those walls. Most of them were three stories or higher which made them look huge when compared

"This place makes me nervous." Drake said, his eyes moving around nonstop."I should've guessed." Laura smiled wryly. "You came from the lower islands, right? Well, not that everyone from the mainland can afford to eat here."The girl had once again used her family's influence to get them a reservation at one of the most luxurious restaurants in the capital. It was built atop a certain hill that placed it on a higher ground than the rest of the buildings. It had an open roof where the table they were led to was. The scenery from there was stunning with the lamps and torches painting the streets in an orange glow that was pleasant to the eye.A waitress came by to take their orders. As always Drake chose a simple meat dish while Laura ordered some soup first. The good arrived after a few minutes and Drake looked somewhat disappointed with what he got.The steak was clearly high quality made of the best meat available and cooked to perfection. The sauce accompanying it looked decent as

"So, where did you disappear last night?" Drake asked Roland. The tall guy's head was swaying and his face lacked color."Went drinking." Roland said. "I think I went too far." Laura said. "Don't worry about it. The only thing that's bothering me is that I had to drink alone." The three were raiding a carriage down a dirt road. Thick woods surrounded them on both sides with plants Drake had never seen before, although most seemed recognizable at first. Sounds of beasts and animals could be heard in the distance. Birds singed under the sun and cicadas like insects filled the area with their loud and somewhat annoying sounds."You could've tagged along with us then." Drake said, well aware that Roland was feeling lonely now that Loki and Edith had went their own separated ways. It'll take a while for him to get used to the new normal, until then he'll have to drink his alcohol alone."I didn't want to be a third wheel." Roland said glancing at the two.Laura blushed and Drake allowed

The mining town of First Wound. A small settlement to the west of Dragon's Head created at the base of a mountain named First Wound. At first the purpose of its existence was to serve as a base for the miners that came to exploit the rare metal veins discovered in the mountain, however after more and more beasts started appearing it became a popular destination for hunters looking to gather materials, coins and Souls.The mountain got its name from the gash like cave that served as an entrance to a series of tunnels. The moment he heard they'd be going inside the mountai Drake grimaced as some unpleasant memories resurfaced. That said, he wasn't going to let anything get between him and what he came here for so without further hesitation he took the lead and entered the cavern. "This place is cold." Laura said, hugging herself trying to stop the shaking."Your Beast Soul is a fire type, right?" Drake asked. "Is it possible for you to feel cold."The girl's brows twitched into a glar

After a little more experimentation Drake learned a few things about magic. First thing is that it has something called casting time. Unlike skills which can be used instantly magic has to be prepared beforehand. The stronger the magic the more time it takes to prepare. Second is the types. Magic relies on the energy produced by the Beast Soul to create effects, which meant that each Soul had some kind of attribute that decides what magic it could use.Drake's nes Thundercloud was a lightning type and it allowed him to use lightning and electricity based attacks. The spell spark, just as the name suggests, creates an electric spark that could be shot from the hands. It's weak and pretty much useless, however magic is still magic.Lightning Pulse creates an outburst of energy that's capable of stunning the opponent, however apparently it only works on weak beasts. Then there is Lightning Spear. It was the closest to what Drake had thought magic would be. Using it one could create a si

The sun goes down and a veil of darkness fell on the world. Silence enveloped the Wounded Dragon mountain range as all beasts went into hiding for the night.Unlike humans the magical creatures knew their place in the world very well. They also knew not to defy those powe powerful than them, because of that whenever the night comes they'd all crowl down into their holes and make space for the real beasts ruling the land.Mount First Wound was in its entirety a magic zone. Its center was near the peak where a large cave was located.Inside a pair of eyes snapped open. Normally she wouldn't bother leaving leaving her nest for long periods of time, however that had seemed different from the usual.She could feel it. The overbearing power of another dragon slowly making its way to her home.Did he come for a challenge? Does he intend on taking the land and its mystical power for himself?No… she thought, lifting itself slowly and coming out of the cave. I won't let it happen.Under the ve

"Man, that was such a night…" Drake mused, eyes bloodshot, unable to keep them open."To think there were so many beasts active at night…" Roland added, barely able to stand."Uuu…" Laura offered no comment. She was the one with the least stamina in the party and what they had to go through left her exhausted. It all happened a few hours ago. After making a stop to yesterday's hunting the three returned to their camp and had dinner. They decided on the order in which they'd keep watch with Drake taking the first shift, and just as the other two closed their eyes they heard their names being called.A swarm of bat like monsters were drawn in by the fire and decided to have human meat fir the night. Drake's system recognized then as the C tier beasts Screamers and according to Roland they were beasts native to this region though they aren't supposed to leave their caves like this.Having done very little fighting over the day Laura was the one to handle the beasts. She used a spell cal

"Drake…" comming to a sudden stop, Roland spoke out. "This is it…"The tall man was standing in front of a wall illuminated by the orange color of a torch. They were deep inside the mountain were light couldn't reach. It didnt help that they were nearing the peak which meant the temperature dropped significantly when it was already cold."You sure?" Drake asked."Yes. This is the exact spot." Roland replied."Alrught then."Opening his inventory Drake took out a few tools; a couple of pickaxes and shovels. The guys took one each and started hitting the wall. Laura on the other hand sat back and watched them work, handling some of the beasts that appeared from time to time.The Furst Wound was a mountain famous for its special steel. One of the regular quests issues by the association was to deliver a certain amount of it, a job many novice hunters took to get the money they needed for equipment. However according to Roland there was a particular spot where they could collect a rare ty

A lot of things happened after the battle against the Dragonspears. When they reunited with the others, Drake learned that Peter had saved Edda and her hound as well. Turns out the two were actually in a secret relationship and she was the one who came up with the whole plan of destroying his contract and escaping. Apparently she was of a rare race of Beastkin that possessed healing abilities. Since her bloodline was too valuable the Dragonspears wanted to make her a part of their family instead of enslaving her then harvesting her Soul. Healers were a rare commodity so even if they're Beastkin they're always treated well. That said, she couldn't get over the fact that she was sold like an object and was looking for the perfect opportunity to betray them. The weirdest part of all was that she had fallen in love with Peter despite him being nothing but a cloud of smoke. Drake was confused about how they planned on making it work, however the girl said that a magic that allows Beastki

"Why…?" Rollo asked his voice hoarse. He was on the ground, his lower half was lost, both of his arms as well. His wounds were frozen preventing him from regenerating. The frost was spreading killing his cells one by one. "I dont really know what you were expecting." Drake said, scratching the back of his head. He hated Rollo. Killing him was only natural. Still, seeing a kid laying on the ground having suffered such grave injuries Drake almost felt bad for him. Almost. He wasn't about to feel sympathy toward someone who planned to enslave him. "I… thought… we could be… friends…" the boy struggled to speak. His lips had turned blue and the breaths he struggled to release with each word turned into white fog. "I wanted you… by my side… we could've… we could've ruled… the upper realm…" "Friends? That's a really bad joke." Drake snorted, mocking the idea. "I only saw you as the bastard who wants to turn me into a weapon. I guess you have succeeded in that regard. Bet you didn't exp

Something about Rollo began to change. The aura covering his body began to fluctuate. He dropped his spear and his blue eyes turned bloody red. Drake heightened his guard. He felt that something odd was happening.The red haired boy had used the effects of the redacted title to force his main Soul to evolve. It was a Red Dragon. Though the name was simple, it was the Soul of one of the seven primal beasts that once ruled over the upper realm, the ones that put an end to the first Eternal Night. The final stage of its evolution is the Light Dragon. It was as rare as the Eternal Night, never found in the wild and can only be reached by cultivating the beast Soul with the help of the system. All of the other Souls Rollo had assimilated were consumed to gather enough Essence for the evolution. The forced process did the same to him as it did to Drake and caused him to lose control as he entered the second stage of assimilation.Scales began to grow on his arms and legs. A thick white t

The moment Drake chose the YES option everything suddenly went black. He couldn't see or feel, it was as if he was pulled out of his body, left as an accumulation of thoughts without a physician form. Time passed. He didn't know how long but at some pont he opened his eyes and looked around him. The black castle was a mess. Corpses everywhere missing most of their remains. Weapons of different types and sizes, broken and destroyed. Armor and shield thrown around bent into unknown shapes. What caught his attention the most were the crystals scattered around and the strange artifacts here and there. They didn't look like anything he recognized. Little did he know what they were magic weapons that had been used on him. The black castle was destroyed. Most of its buildings had crumbled. The walls surrounding it rendered to dust. Upon further inspection Drake noticed white flames here and there eating at anything that had yer to burn. Thay was enough of a clue for him to tell what had

Drake Went around hunting the apprentices looking for him. He approached them peacefully then took the chance to erase them using his void hand. Sadly it didn't go that well till the end. As he was erasing the forth one the fifth saw it and took off. Drake was unable to catch up with him and he ended up warning the servants who went around warning the other apprentices or guards. It was a shame that he couldn't go about it in a more quiet manner, but nothing could be done about it. Tossing the oil lamp he was carrying, drake coated both of his arms in the black flames. He faced the oncoming enemies and prepared to attack."What are we supposed to do!?" One off the guards asked. "He's an important guest of the lord, right?""They said he had killed some apprentices. Until we do a more thorough investigation we have to restrain him for now!"They didn't have to wait though as they got the proof they needed soon enough. The first guard to approach Drake had half of his body erased. Dra

Drake gave Layla and Lily a few minutes to have their reunion, however they needed to move quicker so he told them to save it for a later time. They needed to get moving before the main members of the Dragonspear family are informed of his disappearance. After changing Lily into new clothes, Drake accessed his system and began pooring all the Essence he had into his beast Soul.[《Starless Night.

"Alright." The shadow said. "Everything is in place. Let's get going."Drake took a deep breath then nodded. The time to execute the plan has come and so the two began to move. The shadow enveloped Drake teleporting him to the first location."... Drake?" Layla said, seeing her the boy fall out of the sky.Roland was there as well, taking a fighting stance the moment he saw the strange shadow."We got no time. Come with me." Drake said. Without asking any questions the two came closer and were enveloped by the shadow as well.The next time they opened their eyes they were in an unfamiliar location. Roland was on his knees in no time, struggling to breath. Layla was able to tell they were in the upper realm, and not just anywhere but in a Nexus point where magical Essence was concentrated the most."We are going to revive Lily." Drake said, opening his inventory and taking the little girl's soul. "Wait. What's going on? Isn't this… too sudden?" Layla asked."I'll go keep an eye on th

"So? How are we going to do this?" Drake asked. "You're asking for my help so you should already know how to remove the curse, right?" "Huh? Do you believe me now?" The shadow spoke, his voice containing a hint of joy."Nope. I didn't even decided whether to help you or not." Drake said, waving a dismissive hand. "First of all, let's hear what you have. I'll decide after I hear your plan."... okay, that work just fine, I guess." The shadow said with a sigh. "When I was still a kid someone sold me to the Dragonspears. The slavery contract is a magical item that binds me to the one who signed on it, the family head.""You arent going to ask me to kill him, right?""Of course not!" The shadow exclaimed. "Well, it is one of the possible solutions, however killing that monster is impossible. Our only choice is to find the contract and destroy it.""So? Why dont you do it already?" Drake asked."Because I can't." The shadow replied. "I can't defy my owner, remember? That means I can't bre

"GOD FUCKING DAMN IT DRAKE! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!!!" The shadow was really pissed off. He had barely managed to teleport them outside the cave before it collapsed. Now they were in the field with the new Frost King's corpse Rollo had killed a while ago."You could've gotten us both killed!" The shadow went on, berating Drake for his unreasonable actions. Drake didn't give him much thought, gripping his sword and preparing to continue his attacks."What the fuck do you think you're doing!!?""I don't? Killing the bastard who's trying to use my dead brother to make me do something?" Drake said, cauting his blade with the black flames."I am your brother!" The shadow said. "Well, I did die and got reborn so I guess you have a point. But it's really me! You gotta believe me!""Yeah right." Drake went on to attack, swinging his sword again and again. "You're still as crazy as ever." The shadow said, swooshing here and there avoiding the flurry of attacks. "Did you like this world? Vi
