Chapter 306: Wicked Flame Essence

Charles then closed his eyes and checked every corner of his Inner World.

'Currently, my Inner World is 5 times larger than before. Moreover, my control over it has also reached another level. Hmm, there is one more important thing. Once I release my full wisdom power and create the Pseudo-Domain in the physical world, I can also move the System Cube! Wait… There is more… I can create one perfect consciousness! Yes. Unlike the clone Charles, this consciousness would be a replication of my own self. Everything will be copied and replicated.' Charles's eyes nodded his head and then moved his hand.

The next instant, countless memories started to appear from all parts of his Inner World in the form of small pebbles to lava liquids and gathered above his head!

No, it almost covered the dark sky and looked monstrous.

Charles opened his eyes, stared at those memories, and spoke coldly.

"Replicate!"

A second later, all those memories began to split and replicate into two!

Then, those replicated memories soon separated from the original ones and moved together like a cluster.

On the other hand, his original memories began to split up, flew in different directions, and scattered all over his Inner World.

Meanwhile, Charles zeroed his gaze on the combining memories and used his thoughts to move them.

Those memories soon combined and formed into a massive ball of lava!

Then, the large mass descended from the sky and hovered in front of Charles.

"Memories are arranged in a messy order." He nodded his head, placed his hand on the lava ball, and closed his eyes.

The next instant, he scanned every memory at fast speed and started arranging them in order.

If it were before, he would take more than two months to create this perfect consciousness.

Thankfully, the wisdom power upgrade gave him a huge boost!

He worked faster as he separated the ball of memories into multiple sections and started rearranging it one by one.

Minutes passed, but he didn't stop.

For the next 45 hours, he concentrated his full attention and completely arranged every memory in order.

Then, he used his wisdom power, combined the sections, and then shaped the memories in the form of a humanoid lava body.

At that moment, his memories started fusing and gave birth to a new will!

But it was just the start, though.

The remaining memories also merged with the newly formed will and started to take shape into an illusionary figure of a blue-haired young man!

The memory merging process took another two hours!

Then, a brand new consciousness appeared in front of him.

It hovered in the air with closed eyes and seemed to be checking any anomaly in his newly formed body!

Noticing Charles's gaze, the newly born consciousness opened its eyes, looked around for a moment, and frowned.

"Hmm? This is troublesome. We need to differentiate ourselves. Also, I need to create a new identity for myself."

The consciousness's words surprised him.

Indeed, he had long thought of this problem.

Before he could open his mouth, the newly formed consciousness touched its illusionary face and started to change shape.

A few seconds later, a 25-years-old lady in her formal dress appeared in front of him.

She had deep-set jade eyes, long black hair, an oval face, tan skin, and trimmed thin eyebrows.

Upon seeing her appearance, the corner of Charles's lips twitched.

"Edith Oliver." He muttered in amusement.

"Yes. This should be enough for now." A clear female voice came out of the newly formed clone's mouth.

(Author's Note: I'll call her Edith from now on and even shows her as a female. Well, even I don't know how to differentiate the new clones.)

'No, it's Edith now.' Charles muttered inwardly, looked up at the sky, and suddenly spoke.

"I have an idea to speed up the spell comprehension process."

"You want to put a single fire essence in my consciousness and let me comprehend that spell model?" Edith also followed his gaze and spoke as if she had already aware of his current thinking.

At that moment, her eyes zeroed on the Rank-4 [Life of Fire] spell model.

"The clone Charles already completed 80% of Chaos spell model. If he had chosen to stay here for another three months, we could have saved more time." Edith couldn't help but sigh.

But she understood why he followed after Destiny Lady and didn't blame him.

"Will he be okay? Hmm? What is your plan? Wait… Did you not add all your memories into me?" She furrowed her brows and soon nodded her head in approval.

"That's for the good. Even if I get a body, my strength won't be able to match yours. The chances of me dying somewhere far away and give some clues to find more about you are very high."

Meanwhile, Charles was completely dazed.

'Wow… I don't even need to explain a thing to her now.'

While he was in muse, Edith shifted her gaze towards other spell models, zeroed her focus on an eerie blackish one, and spoke.

"I choose that one. Although the wicked essence will turn me into an evil woman, I'll be able to handle it."

"Are you sure about that?" Even Charles felt a little fear towards that spell model.

"Nope. I'll definitely do wicked things. But it'll be better this way. If you got affected by those negative emotions, there is a high chance that you will make mistakes and ends up in a bad situation. This negative emotion will not only obstruct you, but it might even kill you. If I die, you can easily recreate a copy of me. After all, I'm just a cluster of memories. But if you die, we all will be in deep sh*t." Her tone was extremely serious.

On the other hand, Charles fell into deep thoughts for a moment and then agreed.

"Let's go." Saying so, he used his wisdom power and directly flew towards the sky like a certain comic character.

Edith also followed after him, and soon both of them arrived in front of a large eerie-blackish [Black Inferno] spell model.

Charles then appeared in front of the [Black Inferno] spell model, raised his hands, and extracted the 'True Essence' of Wicked Flame.

The next instant, a dense ball of pure black flame came out of the spell model and soon hovered in front of him.

It was the true essence of this spell model!

Within it, Charles sensed some dense wicked emotion.

It was the pleasure of doing evil things and killing!

Although some other emotions like envy and greed are there, they appeared very minutely!

Charles grabbed the black flame, arrived in front of Edith, and placed it over her chest.

The next instant, the whole ball of flame entered her body and started spreading inside.

A second later, a strange connection appeared between Edith and the spell model.

In the meantime, Edith closed her eyes and focused her full attention on completely assimilating the black fire.

In a few seconds, she opened her eyes and wore a puzzled look on her face.

"I didn't sense any change within me." She spoke in confusion.

Upon hearing her words, Charles wasn't surprised at all.

"This wicked emotion will only act up when you start killing someone. Then, it will take a root in you."

On the other hand, Edith nodded her head in understanding and soon spoke.

"There must be some way to suppress these types of wicked emotions… Wait… That Head Priestess might have known a thing or two! Yes, she seems to be specialized in all kinds of things, right?"

Charles couldn't help but show a shocked look as he heard those words.

'I just now thought of the same thing… Damn, so this is the advantage of perfect consciousness, huh! That means she will also know how to keep her emotions under control from now on. Even if she got affected by the emotions, she will directly come to me and look for a way to tackle it.' He breathed out a sigh of relief.
