Chapter 69: It's the Devil

Isabel turned her head sharply and looked at the young man beside her.

Her name is not Char, so this Grim Reaper must be talking to him.

"It's fine." Char said, "Actually, it didn't cause me much trouble. ”

Sebas straightened up, slightly relieved in his heart, although he knew that the existence in front of him would definitely not blame himself, but he couldn't guarantee it.

After all, if he encounters this kind of thing on a date, he won't be in a good mood.

As a god of death, he needs to be responsible for sending all his souls into the underworld in time, causing his soul to stagnate in the world and become evil spirits, and even hurt ordinary people, which is a dereliction of duty for him.

But then, he heard Char's way.

"But you're not in trouble."

Sebas was stunned, a little difficult to understand what Char meant.

Char's head gestured in Isabel's direction.

Only then did Sebas realize that the lady standing next to Char was not a human, but a spirit body.

But there is a difference with the soul body, because there is still life in her body, which means that the body is not actually dead.

He frowned slightly, then took out the Book of the Dead from his body and began to check the identity of the person beside Char,

Isabel was not Char, and almost instantly, her profile appeared in front of Sebas's eyes.

In the Book of the Dead, in addition to her status as an empress, there is also the period of her death in her original destiny.

She should have died of aging organs throughout her body at the age of ninety-six.

Sebas stared at Isabel.

But obviously, the bone mask he was wearing was too sloppy, and being stared at by the person wearing such a mask, Rao and Isabel became a little unnatural, and subconsciously hugged Char's arm.

"I'll take you back to your body." Sebas said.

Hearing this, Isabel's eyes lit up slightly, and she said excitedly, "You can let me go back." ”

"It's in my area of responsibility." Sebas said calmly, "However, I will clear the memories of the time when your soul was out of the body. ”

"As long as I can go back, I can't remember this." Isabel said without any hesitation.

But at this moment, Char's voice came again.

"It's not that simple."

Sebas looked up at Char.

"Is it common for her to be in such a state in your mind?" Char asked.

Sebas had no words, as Char said, not so much as common, but that he had never seen such a thing where the body was alive but the soul was out of the body.

"What do you mean...," Sebas said hesitantly, "it's artificial?" ”

"I met her halfway through." Char said, "And that monster is here to chase her." ”

Sebas's eyes opened slightly, and the information gradually connected in his mind.

"However, I don't understand something." Sebas was a little puzzled, "If someone really wants to be bad for her, why don't you just kill her and let us take the soul away, so that we won't provoke Hades at all." ”

The Grim Reaper looks at the boundaries between life and death very much, and as long as it does not involve death or the soul, it will not interfere at all.

"What if she needs a living body?" Char continued.

Sebas's eyelids twitched slightly, and he fell into deep thought.

"The soul is separated from the body, but the body is still alive, will it be shown in the Book of the Dead?" Char said.

"Yes." Sebas didn't hesitate to say, "It will show near-death, but the Grim Reaper won't take the Book of the Dead out and turn it over."

The work of harvesting souls in one day is usually planned the day before according to the Book of the Dead.

Therefore, this kind of sudden situation caused by inhuman forces is usually not noticed by death until the next day. ”

"So, the person behind it has a day to react." Char whispered in a low voice with interest, "It seems that this person knows your death very well." ”

After a pause, he continued to reason, "So, in order not to draw your attention, she needs to dismiss this near-death message in a day's time.

Does she hide her soul or share a body with this person? ”

"The NDE message will be there, too." "Originally, it was to prevent demons from coming to this world in the form of a human body. ”

"What if, what if, soul destruction?" Char said again.

"Then the information is gone." "However, the death of a soul will be detected by the rest of the devices in Hades, and there will still be a Grim Reaper who will track it down." ”

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, his pupils shrank slightly, and then he whispered.

So, she killed people with a knife by attracting evil spirits.

After the evil spirit devours the soul, it is strictly "fused" rather than killed, and this state is irreversible, so the god of death can only kill the evil spirit. ”

"Then it became this soul killed by the Grim Reaper, right? Char muttered softly.

Sebas nodded with an ugly face, "Moreover, after the evil spirit fuses the soul, if we don't see it, we can't be sure which soul was fused."

I won't go out of my way to investigate, because there is no point anymore, the soul has been devoured, and this person has completely disappeared from this world except for the shell of the past.

And the soul disappears, and the body basically dies by default.

At most, it will investigate where the evil spirit came from, and where it is the omission, which causes the soul to become an evil spirit. ”

"And then, because of the death of the soul, the near-death in the Book of the Dead also disappeared." Char whispered, "If you hadn't deliberately used the Book of the Dead to find out the information about this empress, you wouldn't have found out about it at all. ”

Sebas's face gradually darkened.

"It's a demon." He affirmed, "Only demons need to use this complicated way." ”

Assuming that the person behind it is a human with special abilities, there are many ways to control Britannia.

For example, hypnotizing Isabel, or like he just said, kill Isabel directly and take her place himself.

It is easy to detach souls from the body, or even manipulate evil spirits, and disguise themselves as ordinary people to deceive mortals.

There is no need to involve Hades at all.

And this way of occupying the body of a living person is obviously not intended to deceive mortals, although it is different on the inside, but from the outside, even the god of death will think that it is just an ordinary living person.

This is to deceive the Grim Reaper, and only the demons running up below need to deceive the Grim Reaper.

The Grim Reaper does not interfere easily in the affairs of the world, but demons are different.
