Bab 647: The underworld pulse.

Her private wing was unusually silent when Scarlet finally found her way to it after maneuvering through a lot of goodbyes and departing from reluctant family members. Justin would be spending the night with Gregor and other young relatives from the Wu side of the family. It left Scarlet alone with Severus. 

Both hound and reaper were silent, mulling over independent thoughts which filled their minds and one that they both didn't want to touch, Esong. 

Scarlet took a bath and gave the unwilling Severus one as well. Then, she changed into her black reaper outfit and sat down on the bed. She took out her stuffed soul gourd which was filled with souls that she collected from the temple and sighed. 

When she looked at it, it hit her then that everything had changed and yet it was almost as if nothing had changed at all. She was powerful but she was still doing the same thing. After life travelling and fighting, this sort of felt too easy or boring.
