Chapter 368 If You Are Going To Take A Risk, So Am I(Chapter preview)
Same as Risea, Mila also had a trauma seal on her mind and to remove that seal, Kai would have to first know what her trauma was. Thankfully, Sahara was seeing Mila's life through the eyes of her father.
But while looking at her face, Kai couldn't help but sigh. Out of all the sins, Yingxi and Mila were the simplest ones. Yingxi was the sin of sloth while Mila was the sin of gluttony.
But if it came down to appearance, Mila looked the simplest. Her plain brown hair fell down her forehead and covered one of her eyes. She had simple brown eyes yet depending on how she was feeling, her eyes would either shine or turn dimmer.
(Check this paragraph comment for her image.)
But despite her being one of the simplest sins, she was strong. The strongest sin was Wrath and the second was surprisingly Lust. After that came Greed, who was Elaine, and Pride who was Sahara.
However, the sin of Envy could rival all of the sins except Wrath. Her powers varied depending on her opponent. So she wasn't placed in the rankings.
Yingxi and Mila both shared the last place but both of them didn't mind it. But if they were to get serious, all of the sins would be equal in power except Wrath.
She was in a completely different league and even Kai hadn't been able to defeat her. However, now that she was reincarnated, who knows, he might be able to defeat her.
But there was no fun and pride in that.
"Mila, I will try my best to remove your trauma once you wake up. But I wonder who I should ask to take care of you." Kai muttered as the first person that came to his mind was Azrael.
But he soon dismissed that thought and instead thought about Esmeralda. But she too was busy since she was taking care of Lana.
He could ask Risea as well but the pink-headed Nephilim would probably forget about the entire thing. He had many other options too but he had no idea who he should ask.
But while standing in the room, Kai heard a knock on the door.
"Um sister Sahara, are you back? If you are busy, I can come later." Kiana's voice suddenly entered the room as Kai looked surprised.
"Sahara is not here but you can come inside," Kai replied back as the door slowly opened up and Kiana stepped inside.
"Am I interrupting something?" She asked as her eyes moved towards Mila who was sleeping on the bed.
"No, you are not. She had been asleep for quite some time." Kai replied with a sigh as an idea suddenly came to his mind. "Kiana, can I ask you for a favor?"
"What kind of favor?" She asked back as Kai looked down at Mila.
"Me and Sahara found her on the demon realm. Her name is Mila and she is the sin of gluttony. But I had to make her fall asleep because her condition isn't that good. She has a seal on her memories too but I can't do anything until she wakes up."
"But if you were the one who made her fall asleep, why can't you wake her up too?" Kiana asked with a confused expression as Kai shook his head.
"That's because her mental condition is a little unstable, to say the least, and imagine being forced to wake up in a room with the person who just murdered your entire father alongside the entire village. I would probably kill the other person." Kai commented as Kiana sighed.
"Kai, not everyone is you. If you wanted, you could just ruin that person's entire life without even touching him."
"Probably true."
"Anyways, I will take care of her," Kiana replied with a chuckle as she walked closer to the bed and looked at Mila.
"Contact me when she wakes up. The seal on her mind is trauma." Kai added as Kiana nodded. The latter then gave the two of them one last glance before he vanished.
"I wonder what else you have gone through. Maybe I will get to know you once you wake up." Kiana muttered as she sighed and sat down.
Kai on the other hand went back to the empty room to see that Sahara still hadn't returned.
[ Sahara, how long is it going to take? ]
[ Probably a few more minutes. I am about to reach the part where he is about to die and I personally want to see how painful his death was. ]
Sahara replied as Kai sat down on the floor with a sigh. He was still at the semi-divinity realm though he could easily rival people in the golden divinity realm or perhaps even spirit immortality realm.
But he knew that he couldn't defeat those at the soul immortality realm or the Darkness. He still remembered the man who had chased Inari alongside Glindhor. Perhaps that man was still alive and Kai knew that he would one day face against him.
"Should I try sucking these?"
Kai thought as he took out the two souls of the men named as Chungo and Mungo. He looked at them for a few minutes before raising them in front of his face.
"Should I do it or not?" He asked himself again while looking at the two souls.
If he swallowed them, he knew that his cultivation would rise but Kai had no idea how big the backlash would be. One needed to be extremely careful when doing anything related to souls.
While he was staring at the souls, Sahara finished watching the man's memories and came back.
"You gave him a nice and painful death." She told Kai with a small smile as the latter then took hold of the third soul.
"Sahara, I am going to use these three souls to increase my cultivation." He suddenly said as Sahara frowned.
"You do know that you might be knocked out for a century or so?"
"I know the consequences but I have to do it despite the risks. If I am successful, things could turn especially good for us."
"Then if you are going to take a risk, so am I." She suddenly said and sat down beside Kai. "I think it's about time you knew the secret to my powers."
