THE BOUND SOUL
"Swisshhhh"
Suddenly, a wide slash formed like a curved blade rushed forth from my broken sword. To my surprise, the conjured slash broke one of the limbs of the Phantom of the Dark Realm.
The Phantom of the Dark Realm realized I had a weapon that could harm it, so it quickly ran away.
"The Phantom is quick to run", I said to the others.
"It will return with more help. The Phantoms are not solitary in nature", Emperor Tian told me when to my shock and horror the broken limb of the Phantom transformed into energy which was readily absorbed by my teacher, the magical shroud.
"What is happening here?" Ratatouille asked.
The energy of the Phantom's broken limb nourishes my teacher.
"Your strength is recovering from the magic of the phantom?", I asked my teacher and speculated.
"Yes, the dark magic of this realm could replenish my tattered soul. Hunting these dark beings is useful to me", he replied to me.
