Capítulo 8: Soul Polarisation
'What w as that? I felt an ominous aura drifting off from her just now as she moved closer' Xeric was almost breathless due to nervousness.
Jezebel let out a dark laugh.
'This is no time to get flustered'
Xeric composed himself.
"You, you actually used that soul crystal to suck your minions, don't tell me you wanted to cannibalise them?"
Xeric wore an irritated expression.
"I don't know you could bring such a thing to a battlefield"
A smug expression appeared on Xeric face.
Jezebel breathed in and out heavily as if to calm herself down against Xeric attitude.
"Have you forgotten that a defeated phantasm, a phantasm whose soul has received 100% damage turns into a soul crystal"
"I knew that as much"
Xeric nodded and affirmed.
"But let me share a secret with you"
A crook smile appeared on Jezebel's lips.
"A soul titan could manipulate their soul energy in an unbelievable way, it's because we know the true essence of the soul, much akin to a soul sage and soul sovereign"
Jezebel walked slowly and graciously towards Xeric, while Xeric kept their distance constant as he kept moving backward at the same time while listening to what Jezebel was saying.
"That was why we can create a soul crystal from a portion of our soul even though we haven't been defeated"
"Interesting, you have my thanks for letting on that"
Xeric bow in appreciation.
"I believe this marks the beginning of the decisive battle"
'Decisive battle, this brat is mocking a soul titan' Jezebel bit her lower lips exasperatedly.
Xeric took a fighting stance with fists extended and imbued with soul energy, the red aura started drifting on his fists like a burning flame.
'I'm using ninety percent'
He inhaled deeply and exhaled.
"What!!!"
Xeric shouted as his eyes witnessed something unusual.
The black orb Jezebel held which was exuding a black aura was now exuding white aura.
"Inconceivable!"
Xeric was stunned in his position.
"That is the colour of a mortal soul, your minions were obviously phantasms, they are banshees, how?"
Jezebel expression hardened
"I'm deploying my technique at the moment, I shall enlighten your ignorance soon"
She then opened her mouth wide and swallowed the orb which had turned into a white orb with a white aura drifting over it.
Jezebel licked her lips and heaved a heavy sigh of relief, she then gazed at Xeric and grinned darkly.
"You shall despair"
Before Xeric knew it, Jezebel's fist connected with his chin, giving him an uppercut.
Two teeth flew off from his opened mouth and Xeric's body was launched up to the sky like a rocket.
"Damn, what was that? I can't see her movement, how?"
Xeric could only cuss as he kept shooting toward the sky.
Then he saw a figure appeared in front of him.
It was Jezebel, the two moving upward in the sky, Xeric was stunned, how she did it was unknown, Xeric was sure he was at least three hundred meters in the air, did she jump that high? Even if she did jump that high, how was she following his movement, is she flying?
But Xeric wasn't granted any moment of thought.
Jezebel's leg connected with his flank, the sound of bone cracking was heard as Xeric body bent like a deformed metal upon the impact.
ARGGGHHH!!
'I'm dead'
An explosion followed as Xeric hit the ground, dust spewing and covering him.
"This isn't sure hit right?" Xeric voice trembled, he panicked, and pain coursed through his entire being, this was because he had no time to defend himself against Jezebel's strike.
She was too fast, Xeric couldn't see her movement, he could only feel as her strike connected with his body, so he had no time to defend himself with soul energy.
Again, Xeric saw Jezebel figure in front of him as he sat up from the spot he landed which had rock strewn about due to the impact as if a meteor landed from the sky.
It was as if she teleported.
"How!" The word escaped his trembling lips, he started feeling fear, the aura colour of his soul energy he was cloaked in to break his fall was changing from burning red to orange colour due to his emotion, he was experiencing fear.
Jezebel bent to Xeric height.
"Aw, if only you had cooperated, well, that time is gone"
She stood up again, her eyes flashing with a predatory glint.
"I shall now enlighten your ignorance"
With the opening given, Xeric used the opportunity to jump back and gain distance, but he knew deep down that it was a futile decision. If Jezebel wanted to attack him, he wouldn't be able to evade her.
"My technique, Soul Polarisation, allows me to change the negativity of two soul energies to positivity and vice versa using that orb I created from a portion of my soul. It multiplies the essence of souls together—negative multiplied by negative gives positive, and positive multiplied by negative gives negative"
Xeric looked on in wonder. He now understood how the orb sucked up the soul energy of the Phantasms and started exuding the white-colored aura of mortal soul energy. After all, mortal souls have positive energy. But that still didn't explain her movement. "But how did you become so invisible? Did you teleport? I can't read your movements at all."
Jezebel turned her back to Xeric. " The orb can also create a strong force of attraction and repulsion between two soul energies. Like energies repel, unlike attract. As long as the target has a soul, the moment I launched my fist, it had already connected with you due to the strong force of attraction between our souls of opposite energies.
That was also why I was able to move so fast to you three hundred meters in the air while flying with you. I can also change the magnitude of these forces,"
Jezebel concluded with a grave tone.
'Like a magnetic force?'
At that moment, Xeric realized there was no way he could defend against her attack. But he was determined; he wasn't the type to surrender, and he also knew Jezebel wouldn't allow him to escape. 'Then I shall attack.'
"Good grief, why am I even telling you the secret behind my technique"
Jezebel used her hand to brush back her long black hair in her frustration, she gazed up at the sky with a gloomy expression.
With tremendous speed, Xeric rushed towards Jezebel, who still had her back turned to him.
"BANG!"
But something happened, something Xeric couldn't comprehend. "What the hell?"
Xeric's fist was unable to hit Jezebel...
