Chapter 249: The Twin Soul

Joo Joowon always felt that there was some extremely important information hidden within these words. Unfortunately, he knew far too little about mysticism, so he really could not infer anything from them.

Looking down at Byeol, Joo Joowon affectionately stroked him.

So, without him knowing, Byeol had once done so much for him.

And what about the "sub-soul" mentioned in Byeol’s talent? Was that the one Joo Joowon’s Mental Power had seen when it found Byeol’s soul?

A second personality? Multiple personality disorder?

But since they could appear at the same time, should they be considered twins?

It just seemed that it had left Byeol’s soul and followed Joo Joowon away?

Thinking about the black smoke that had wrapped around him, Joo Joowon could not be certain whether that had been the other party using a skill on him, or whether it had truly followed him away.

He looked at Byeol’s beautiful mismatched eyes, wondering how he could get Byeol to call out his sub-soul. Just as he was thinking about this, he suddenly had an epiphany.

In an instant, Joo Joowon seemed to see a white cat hanging high above the stars, gazing at him from afar.

The panel also began to ripple like the surface of water disturbed by a breeze. When it became calm once more, new information had already appeared.

...

[ Name: Byeol ]

[ Race ]: Celestial Soul

[ Level ]: 1

[ Skills ]: Heavenly Pardon, Heavenly [ Blessing, Damage Transfer

[ Talents ]: Astral Fate, Twin Souls

[ Favorability ]: Sharing Life and Death

Status: ?

[ Introduction ]: Born by seizing the Heavenly Fortune and arriving in response to fate, it transformed and came into being, unable to exist independently.

(Note: Because this creature cannot absorb experience points, the experience it obtains cannot enter the experience pool and will all be transferred to the Pet Owner.)

...

[ Skill: Heavenly Pardon (Legendary) ]

[ Basic Bonus ]: 1~320

[ Description ]: "When Heavenly Pardon enters one’s fate, one gains much with little effort." An enhancement-type skill that greatly increases one’s fortune after being used. It turns danger into safety, increases blessings, and strengthens one’s fortune and energy. Each use consumes Star Fortune, and the consumed Star Fortune can only be replenished through [Heavenly Blessing].

...

[ Skill: Heavenly Blessing (Legendary) ]

[ Basic Bonus ]: 1~320

[ Description ]: "Bestowed by Heaven, one has abundant clothing and sufficient food." A recovery-type skill that absorbs the blessings and fortune of Heaven and Earth to restore one’s own Star Fortune. After each use, the Calamity, Forsaken Star, and Two Fiends will descend together. This Heavenly Punishment cannot be resolved through conventional methods such as offering sacrifices to Heaven, purification, or praying for blessings.

...

They were still two Legendary-grade skills, both of them support-type skills. One was meant for himself, while the other could be used to strengthen someone else.

In terms of effects, [Heavenly Pardon] had some overlap with Byeol ’s [Forsaken Star] skill, but its range of application was clearly wider.

At the instant the panel changed, Joo Joowon sensed a connection that was different from the ones he had with Hwi and Byeol.

However, this connection was extremely weak, as if the other party were in a very distant place with a poor signal.

It kept appearing and disappearing, making it impossible for him to determine the other party’s location.

He could only sense that the other party seemed to be moving. However, the sub-soul could not exist independently, so logically speaking, its range of activity should have been limited. Then how could it move?

In any case, the sub-soul had the [Heavenly Pardon] skill, so it would not be at a disadvantage. Therefore, Joo Joowon did not dwell on it. Looking at Byeol’s mismatched eyes, through which the sub-soul was looking at him, he could not help but lower his voice and ask, "What do you want your name to be?"

Although it was a sub-soul, it was also a new life with its own independent thoughts, so it naturally deserved a new name.

Byeol : ???

What the hell was going on? Who was the cat servant talking to?!

The sub-soul did not make a sound and continued maintaining its aloof posture.

Joo Joowon thought for a moment before tentatively suggesting, "Fatty?"

In an instant, he felt killing intent emerge from the sub-soul’s eyes.

"You don’t like it?" He coughed awkwardly.

After racking his brain for a long time, he added, "Dal?"

The sub-soul’s expression looked somewhat helpless, and his aloof untouchable attitude seemed to be becoming difficult to maintain. However, he still nodded reluctantly. In the next second, he disappeared without a trace.

Joo Joowon blinked his eyes. It was not that he did not want to give them more formal names. It was simply that he could not do it, because he already knew the truth that he was absolutely terrible at naming things.

He had already decided that the names he came up with could just be used as their pet names or nicknames.

If they felt that the names were unsuitable in the future, they could simply change them themselves to names that sounded better or more imposing.

His abilities were limited and he truly could not think of any names that sounded good while also carrying some profound meaning.

"Meow?" Byeol raised a paw and pressed its pink paw pad against Joo Joowon’s face. Concern for Joo Joowon’s mental state could be seen in its beautiful cat eyes.

Why was the cat servant saying such strange things to him?

Joo Joowon was a little puzzled. "You don’t feel anything at all?"

Worried that he could not express himself clearly with words, Joo Joowon once again awkwardly used mental communication to convey his meaning to Byeol .

Byeol ’s eyes widened in surprise. How did the cat servant suddenly learn how to speak cat language?

He tilted his head, completely unable to understand.

Feel what?

"...It’s nothing." Joo Joowon rubbed Byeol. Although he found it a little unexpected, he did not pay much attention to it. In any case, there would always be opportunities for them to meet in the future.
