Chapter 304: Battle of Souls (First Update)
Chapter 304: Battle of Souls (First Update)
"Possession!"
Seeing Jerry walk into the house and gradually emerge from the second-floor staircase, Voldemort's main soul flew out of the snake and the fragmented soul out of the Horcrux diary, hurtling towards Jerry at top speed.
Their goal was simple: to use the thread of connection the fragmented soul had left in Jerry's soul to directly enter Jerry's spiritual realm, overwhelm him two-on-one, tear apart his small soul, and then merge and take control of the body.
Jerry watched the approaching main soul and fragmented soul of Voldemort with no sign of panic. Calmly, he pulled out a box and retrieved the Matryoshka Doll engraved with a soul-sealing array that he had prepared.
"Merlin's underwear, what kind of monster is this!"
When Voldemort's main soul and fragmented soul followed the thread of connection and burst into Jerry's spiritual realm, they were instantly dumbfounded.
In theory, the soul of a thirteen-year-old witch, no matter how powerful in Magic, could not be very strong. Age was a limiting factor.
Voldemort's main soul and the fragmented soul from one of the five Horcruxes, nurtured by Dark Magic, were only slightly less powerful than the main soul.
Together, they should have been more than a match for even a powerful adult witch.
However, the soul standing before them was more than three times larger than the combined size of both of them.
"Welcome to my spiritual realm, Voldemort!"
In Jerry's spiritual realm, the soul form of Jerry slowly opened his eyes.
In the world of The Apprentice of Magic, he had long learned to harness the power of the soul under the guidance of Balthazar, a Magic user who had lived for a thousand years.
Skills like the Soul Suction Spell, Soul Sealing Spell, and Pact Magic all involved the manipulation of the soul.
Being a reincarnated soul, Jerry's soul was much stronger than that of a normal witch. Additionally, the Meditation Technique he practiced gradually strengthened his soul.
Thus, his soul was actually much stronger than Voldemort's.
This was why he dared to let Voldemort's main soul and fragmented soul enter his spiritual domain.
"We have a chance to win, even if it's two-on-one!"
In Jerry's spiritual realm, the young and handsome fragmented soul of Voldemort encouraged the bald, noseless main soul, leading the charge towards Jerry's soul.
The young Voldemort, being in a more stable mental state, was intellectually, courageously, and physically superior to the main soul, which had been fragmented five times and was now in a state of evil chaos.
Despite the obvious disadvantage in soul strength, he did not give up and even encouraged the main soul to join in the assault.
The main soul, though inwardly cursing the fragmented soul for being a fool, had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow.
"Nice try!"
Seeing the two charging towards him, Jerry sneered and assumed a starting stance.
If Jerry were a thirteen-year-old who had never been in a fight, like Harry, he might have gradually weakened under their combined assault.
In a battle of souls, if there were no special techniques, the simplest form of soul-to-soul combat was the most damaging.
However, Jerry was not a child. He was a semi-professional martial artist, proficient in Jeet Kune Do and grappling techniques, and had also learned various styles of fighting, including jujitsu, kickboxing, and Muay Thai, during his free time over the past two years.
His opponents, on the other hand, were just witches who could wave wands but had little to no experience in physical combat.
"Dragon Tail Swing, Golden Snake Wrist Wrap, Muscle Split and Bone Twist, German Suplex"
"Ouch, oh, ah"
In less than two minutes, Voldemort's main soul and fragmented soul had become so weakened by Jerry's overwhelming attacks in terms of strength, speed, and technique that they could barely stand.
"Stop, stop, please stop!"
Seeing Jerry's massive fists, larger than their heads, coming at them again, Voldemort's main soul and fragmented soul simultaneously pleaded for a ceasefire.
Although, due to the existence of other Horcruxes, neither the main soul nor the fragmented soul could be completely destroyed in this spiritual realm; at most, they would become severely weakened.
However, a soul attack on a soul is extremely painful, comparable to the Cruciatus Curse.
"It's about time!"
Seeing Voldemort's main soul and fragmented soul becoming translucent, Jerry retracted his fist and closed his eyes, shifting his consciousness back to the outside world.
"Soul Suction Spell!"
Returning to the real world, Jerry, who had just reached the second floor, slowly opened his eyes and raised his hand to cast the Soul Suction Spell on himself.
The Soul Suction Spell is a Magic that can extract a soul from a physical body. It can pull out evil spirits possessing others and also draw out foreign souls that have invaded one's spiritual realm to cause chaos.
During the battle with Morgana in the world of the Apprentice of Magic, Balthazar used this Magic to extract Morgana's soul from Veronica's spiritual realm.
Under the effect of the Soul Suction Spell, Voldemort's main soul was forcibly extracted from Jerry's spiritual realm first.
"Seal!"
Opening the innermost part of the Matryoshka Doll, Jerry immediately sealed the severely weakened and powerless Voldemort's main soul inside.
As Voldemort was being sealed, Jerry heard a curse from his mouth, which roughly translated to:
"Damn, I didn't expect my younger self to be such an idiot!"
From Voldemort's main soul's perspective, if it weren't for the fragmented soul bringing Jerry into the picture, he could have recovered and found a Death Eater to use the Resurrection Potion.
"Soul Suction Spell!"
After sealing Voldemort's main soul, Jerry immediately cast the Soul Suction Spell again, extracting Voldemort's fragmented soul, the young Voldemort from the diary.
"You hid it well, everyone was deceived. Now it's clear that the Chamber of Secrets Basilisk wasn't destroyed by Dumbledore, but by you!"
As the fragmented soul emerged, it looked at Jerry and suddenly understood many things.
It wasn't his fault, after all, he had been part of Jerry's life at Hogwarts for a year. Jerry had deceived not just him, but everyone.
No one knew how powerful Jerry truly was; they only thought he was an exceptionally talented Slytherin and a gifted Quidditch Seeker.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have let his guard down so easily.
"Indeed, the Basilisk has nothing to do with Dumbledore. I subdued it long ago. Even Professor Quirrell in the first year was actually killed by me.
And I've known you were Voldemort's Horcrux all along. I also know the locations of all the remaining Horcruxes: the ring, the locket, the cup, the crown..."
Jerry looked down at the young Voldemort, a smile gradually forming on his lips.
"Surprised? Shocked?"
