The Atlantean Compensator 98 The Soul

Aylal was the first to make a remark.

"Hey man, were you hitting the gym lately?

You look significantly stronger."

Herald. "Oh Hahahahahaha yeah I was, during the three months i wasn't here."

Iscariot. "You look great bro!"

Herald. "So do you my friend.

So, how is it being going lately for you all?"

Iscariot. "Pretty boring, just the usual...Too much work to enjoy myself like the old days."

Miguel. "Miss you a lot man, ain't got someone to talk about basketball with since a long time."

Herald. "Oh yeah, I feel terrible I missed the finals this year.

Would you believe me if i said i was too busy to even know who won??"

Miguel. "You kidding me? The Lakers won yet again. Anthony davis Finals Mvp."

"Fuck yeah!" Said Herald happily.

Yussein. "Enough of basketball.

My brand is getting a bit successful lately, made a contract with two stores here in the city."

Herald. "For real?

Congratulations man, that's great!"

Aylal. "We better get free T-shirts from that."

Zeko. "That fucker won't give you shit. I know how he is all talk."

Yussein. "Everyone gets a free shirt by tomorrow except Zeko.

You have my word for it."

Zeko. "Heh, like i need it....But come on that ain't fair!"

*Everybody laughs*

"But more importantly, let's hear from Herald about his trip. We don't even know which country he visited!" Said Iscariot.

The question took Herald off guard.

Aylal. "Yeah true, tell us!

How did you like chicks over there? They haven't made you cheat?"

"Hahahahaha What?"

'The lying won't stop it seems...' He said in his mind

...

Back to koufonisi.

Joshou seems to have finally, discovered something.

'Connected with the sword... So it can give me its full power.

I need to confirm something!'

Joshou searches for Heracles in the castle, and finds him meditating in the arena.

Slowly he approaches, and awaits until his master finishes.

Heracles broke his ritual and spoke.

"Came for something, Joshou?"

"Yes master, i need some clarifications." He replied.

Heracles asks him to come sit next to him.

Joshou sits, after some seconds of silence he asked.

"Can an object have a soul?"

Heracles smiles.

"Let me ask you back then, can anything exist without a soul?"

Joshou thinks for a moment.

"...I don't know."

Heracles. "This whole creation, couldn't have been if not for the soul God gave each and every component of.

Think well, what are we?

Just objects made of what many other objects are made of. Once that soul leaves our bodies, we disintegrate into nothingness.

The answer to your question is yes, everything you see, and even some things that you don't see.

Have a soul.

However, there are differences between us living creatures and other forms of creation.

Steel for example have an almost unbreakable soul, that is why it's so hard to break.

Diamond as well, Gold...

But once that soul leaves its object, the object dies as well just like us."

"...I see, that wouldn't make a lot of sense to me once but now. It does, when I saw Oumad and Sir Alkeyder connecting with water. I started thinking about this possibility."

Heracles. "Indeed, even myself and how i control fire. the source doesn't necessarly have to be internal!

Look over there, I'll light up that empty spot with fire.

*Heracles demonstrates the action to Joshou*

Then,

I can shape it however i want...Move it however i want.

And then, consume it again back to me.

You understand? If you're connected perfectly with any object in this world.

It's bound to serve you!!

That is the power God gave humans, which no one else possess."

"Thank you, infinitly." Joshou kneels in gratitude.

Then heads back knowing exactly what he needs to do from this point forward.

As he was passing by Oumad.

He stopped.

"How is it going with your training?" He suddenly asks him.

Oumad, not expecting Joshou's question lost his focus and eventually broke his connection with water.

"UGH!!! I was clo...

Joshou! I didn't expect your question...

Well, It's going slow but to the better, I started getting creative with it...

look! I can make a little water turnado."

Joshou smiles. "That looks cool!

Let me try something."

He holds his sword with one hand, and closes his eyes.

Smoothly, not using much speed or power he swiped! Then opened his eyes.

"Did something happen?" He asks.

Oumad is an a bit of a shock right now...

"Some of the water....got split in half!!

You didn't use your speed or power! Normally that would barely even cut flesh...

How did you do it?!"

Joshou is smiling, he's actually happy right now.

"Well, I don't have shame in saying that I copied you.

Let's take dinner later and talk about it.

See you."

He leaves.

Oumad is weirded by a lot of things that happened right now.

"Why does he seem a bit different today?

Also..He copied me?

Does he mean he...."
