440 A Weird Relationship
“Master, did you have to kill me? I’m just hungry,” Yuyui said while rubbing her hands against her arms.
She still felt the sensation of being blown to bits by her master, a new way of dying she wasn’t used to.
It was pretty terrifying.
But her hunger was even more so!
“You finished all my food stock. You know that, right? You’re just fleshing with me at this point, aren’t you?” Skullius asked the woman who was standing a distance away from him, scared that she might be killed again.
Granted, she knew her master was really strong and fast but it was better to try and avoid death.
“But… isn’t it your duty to feed me? You rescued me, after all,” Yuyui said in a very small voice while shrinking. She half-heartedly wanted Skullius to hear this though.
Fortunately for her, Skullius heard every word with his keen senses, a vein throbbing on his temples again as he suddenly wore a ‘kind’ expression, his hand stretching out to Yuyui and gesturing for her come.
“You know what? You’re right. Come closer. Lemme feed you your own feet,” Skullius said with a menacing, deep voice that made Yuyui shriek and back away in fright.
“I… I was joking!” Yuyui yelped.
The dreadful presence that her master had been attempting to put under control for the past day and a half was unbearable. It had almost killed her the first time she sensed it.
Now, her master could freely let it loose, especially from his blank eyes.
Skullius shook his head.
“I would have loved to stop by in some of the small towns we passed by to take care of that nasty hunger of yours but taking detours would be problematic to our schedule. Also, it was too risky to do with how I wasn’t able to control much of my new self before,” Skullius said.
There were many aspects of Skullius’ new strength that he was hesitant to expose before he had everything under control, which was why he had stayed away from congested areas.
Speaking of Skullius’ new strength…

Skullius’ stats had grown exponentially!
The additions to stats he had gained as the Luminant Seed rebuilt him were all in absolute conversion to the blue core he had, which was why he was so much stronger.
His previous stats were condensed, compressed and added to the massive figures of stats he now owned, each point having a higher value than that of the stats from a white cored combatant.
The change in the core also affected the individual’s other stats as well as what Skullius had been seeing on other stronger opponents before was the same with him now, his stats having the (I) to depict that they were at the blue core level.
“How far does the map say we are from Genhuis City?” Skullius asked the lime haired girl.
Yuyui hurriedly checked the map that Skullius had given her, the one Elita had gifted to him back in Eofel which showed his and Yuyui’s position in accordance to the main locations of Pelian.
“We are almost there. It might take half a day to reach there at our pace though,” Yuyui replied.
“Good,” Skullius said. He couldn’t see the map so he had Yuyui read it. But unfortunately, this caused a certain problem.
“ARRRRRRGHHHHH! NOT AGAIN!!” Yuyui screeched at the top of her lungs, her flesh melting off in a true terrifying way as she died in agony.
If any normal human being had seen this, they would have thrown up endlessly.
UNCoddled had recognised how she was helping Skullius with the map again and she was subjected to a brutal death.
Fortunately, beside the pool of human goo, Yuyui promptly appeared like a fade in transition, her body trembling as she held the map in her hands.
She sobbed softly as the sensation of dying for the seventeenth time to UNCoddled was still fresh.
“Why
Skullius breathed out another sigh.
It was tragic indeed.
But on the bright side, when Yuyui died, there was a marvellous by product.
Over the course of the past day and a half, Skullius had witnessed how strange Yuyui’s body truly was.
She wasn’t just immortal.
Everything she had on her was essentially the same too!
If she died with clothes on, she would reappear with those same clothes in the same state they were in before her death!
The same was true for artefacts as well. As long as they were on her person, they wouldn’t be lost!
Of course, as Yuyui had described before, her corpses rapidly aged and the same fate fell on the objects her corpse had, which meant creating duplicates by killing her was impossible.
As for her overall current strength, Skullius had had to use [Crude World Projection] vision to get a visual on her outline and then appraise it with his guidance field, otherwise while blind, he couldn’t do so.

There were many aspects about Yuyui that Skullius wanted to explore but that was all in due time.
At least she wasn’t actually that weak.
Skullius pulled out the Elimparidis Stone Staff.
“Let’s take a break. I think we should finally visit those two and have a chat before we reach the city. I don’t want any surprises from you,” Skullius said as he pulled himself and Yuyui into the world within the staff.
Soon, the two appeared on the bare high ground that overlooked the ocean, the forest and the mountain range.
To Skullius, this place was becoming more like home.
It would be pretty great if he developed it some more, adding many items that would make it a perfect secret residence.
Yuyui took deep breaths, enjoying the fresh air. It hadn’t been that long since she had been set free and though she had been here before, the fresh air was always good to take in.
“It’s so beautiful,” she said while looking at the sea and forest again.
She really liked this place.
To the side, was a large, white stone pedestal on top of which was perched the Temple of Unlusted Tears. This was where it had been positioned after Skullius had sucked it into his staff and now, he was ready to go back in and see what he could salvage information and material wise before entering Genhuis City.
Skullius grabbed Yuyui by the nape of her shirt and blasted up the stone pedestal at incredible speed, reaching the entrance to the large structure atop it soon after.
GSSSHHHK!
The massive double doors to the Grounds of Communion opened, revealing once again the familiar space marked with twelve large statues.
The instant Skullius set foot in with Yuyui, a torrent of wind infused mana burst outwards from one of the statues that had its face destroyed, a reminder of the battle between Skullius and Bassbion.
The ferocious waves of power were unwelcoming and so was the voice that boomed afterwards, its words now being kinder to Skullius’ ears.
“Look who is back! I’ve been waiting for you, host and you… vile man!”
The voice of an enraged Bassbion echoed as her body which had been nested at the base of the statue in the form of a rock turned into armoured Spirit clutching its blade dangerously.
