Chapter 103: Its Origin

The crisp voice continued to explain calmly, "Even though that existence is powerful, it still cannot compare to the heavens! Some heaven and earth energy is bound to leak into the Third Layer from the Second Layer!"

"Then can I return to the Third Layer!?" Davis asked in excitement!

"Of course you can." It laughed and continued, "If you are able to meet the requirements that existence set in order for someone to enter the third layer, then naturally you will be able to enter."

Looking at Davis's reaction, it resumed, "By any chance, if you are asking me about the location of the portal that is currently connected to the Third Layer, then I simply don't know."

A few moments of silence passed as Davis took in the information as he assimilated it one by one.

His gut told him that the Death Book didn't lie to him. To be honest, he felt that the Death Book had no reason to lie to him.

He then sighed, "Thanks for answering my questions."

"Haha, you're a weird one! Everyone who obtained me had either ruled people with fear or dominance! Even their father and mother didn't escape their clutches! You're quite the uncanny one, aren't ya!? Hahaha!"

Davis had black lines on his face "Do you always talk like this?" Now that the situation was seemingly not out of control, he realized that this existence has a weird way of communicating.

It laughed in a crisp voice, "Haha! No, I always spoke solemnly before, but I realized that it's quite boring when I saw the way you people on earth talk recently! Hahaha!"

"You've been stalking people on earth!?" Davis's eyes widened, 'Wasn't the Death Book with me the whole time?'

The voice went silent for a moment, "No, you misunderstood me, kid. How do I make you understand? I got it!" It then laughed again.

"Kid, after I spent billions of years in a mini-space, undoing my seal with what little energy I could gather, I created a spirit to scout the world around for me! I gave that spirit a copy of myself that doesn't even have 0.1% of my capabilities and set some rules for it. Later, I created more of these spirits, made more copies of myself and spread them out in the mini-world."

"Finally, I hid from my own creations as I acted like my copy. Later, I was in the possession of the first spirit I created, and he called himself the Death God Overlord since he knew that it was the first of its existence. From time to time, it would sometimes drop me in the planet you called Earth. Yes, I was controlling the spirit's mind subconsciously, and it didn't know a thing since I was the one controlling it, besides, it's my creation."

"The other spirits saw his clumsiness and started dropping their copies into the world as well. Killing people was fun and it granted me energy. However, it wasn't enough. If I wanted to return by myself, then I would've needed at least from a million to a billion years gathering energy to break through the seal of the third layer. Finally, just when I somehow started to enjoy my stay in that wretched world, I fell into your hands, gaining a free ticket to the second layer!"

"Heh! Then you should be grateful to me!" Davis grinned.

But it continued, "Not to mention that I saved your sorry face when you were traveling through that space tunnel, but I must say that I was only able to save you because you ingeniously used the death book's rule to your advantage. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to act because of the restrictions that were placed upon me by the seal."

Davis gave up, "Okay~ But this still doesn't answer my question..."

The crisp voice sighed, "Idiot~ Did your brain turn to paste? I guess it is understandable, seeing that you are in the presence of the majestic me! In that wretched world, I was with you for a few years and all you did was watch some animation! I picked this style of speaking from those unique characters!"

Davis's eyes shot wide, he hid the lower part of his body with his hands, "Holy shit! Did you watch that as well?" He remembered that he kept the Death Book directly opposite to the monitor, in a bookshelf.

"Hmm? That animation you sit in front of while moving your hands up and down? I watched it as well and it was quite the art I must say!"

The crisp voice continued, ignorant to Davis's embarrassment, "Honestly, watching those animations with you quenched my boredom a lot! The stories were funny as well!"

Davis facepalmed himself from embarrassment, 'This conversation seriously took a weird turn...'

"Well, I believe that I answered your questions now!" The crisp voice echoed in his mind, waking him up from his embarrassment.

The crisp voice asked angrily, "Kid! Did you just now ignore my sacrifice as it was nothing!?"

"What sacrifice!?" Davis was visibly confused.

"Kid, I could've just let you die and arrived by myself at the second layer to be picked up by someone, but I didn't do that and merged with your soul. So you should be grateful to me for eternity!" It shouted indignantly.

Davis shrugged, "Somehow, I doubt it..."

"What!? The old me has taken a huge sacrifice and all I get is some doubt? This is bullying! I want my body back!" The crisp voice shouted as if it was being strangled.

"You jest! You can create that whenever you want!" Davis smirked.

"Oh! What makes you say that?" Suddenly, the voice changed its tone, to one of interest.

"Just now when you didn't disagree with my statement." Davis grinned as if he won.

"Haha, kid! You certainly got me real good! Yes! I can create my body whenever I want but if I left your soul permanently, do you know the consequence!?" It turned solemn.

"Will I die?" Davis asked calmly. There was no fear in his voice.

"Absolutely, seems like you have calmed down." The voice sounded like it was satisfied.

Davis then sighed, "What can I do to make you reside in my soul?"

No matter what, he needed the death book to quickly increase his power.

"Hehe, kid, don't worry. I won't extricate myself away from you. After all, you have earned it!" The voice laughed as if this was an incomparably small matter.

Davis was silent for a moment before he said, "...Thank you!"

"Whatever, just make sure you leave this sealed realm before you die. I don't wanna stay in this place anymore, hurry up and exit this sealed realm already!"

"Aren't you like a spoiled brat!? Alright, I'll try as soon as I can." Davis laughed.

It replied as it laughed, "Hehe, good luck with that."

Davis thought that this much of some reveal was enough to him today, so he thought of leaving. Just when he prepared to leave, he remembered something.

"Oh, by the way, I wonder what was the ability that I unlocked when I reached the third stage in Soul Forging Cultivation?"
