Chương 389: The soul

"We are not the creator," Hypnos seemed to be able to read Kayden's mind as well. "All living things dream, Kayden, and have their nightmares. The two are nothing more than the same thing presented in different ways: dreams, the mana of the soul, the soul itself, and the life force... they are all the same thing presented in different ways."

This revelation opened Kayden's mind to frightening levels. This meant that all this time, he had been consuming his soul and using it as strength, but fortunately, the mana from this place was able to regenerate it.

"It wasn't the soul you were moving, but rather its reduced version in the form of life force. I had hoped that you would at least be able to mold it freely after so long, but even that you were not able to do."
