CH1090: Kin Battle
"Your Feline Beast Soul?" Korede was surprised. Then he understood, "Wait? Does it think your Beast Soul is a kin, an apparition possessing a host?"
"Yes, it does." Fatima confirmed. "And it is not wrong."
"Huh?"
"It is a natural Spirit, a Soul-form being born in an immaterial realm bordering our reality. One of my potential paths when I became a Grandmaster offered me the ability to tame Spirits like it. I turned it down for my current path which allows me to create Spirit of my choosing on my own, albeit limited in number.
"My Beast Souls are technically fake Spirits I birth from my own Soul and the workings of my Contractor Heritage. So, from that angle, they are somewhat kin. And seeing how my Beast Soul possesses my body to strengthen it, like the Panther Spirit also does for its host, prove this."
Korede nodded in understanding.
"So? Will you accept its challenge?"
