As Ophis's words washed over me, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder at the realization that I had become a transcendent soul. It was a concept that seemed almost surreal, yet at the same time, it resonated with a deep truth that reverberated within the core of my being.

Me:A transcendent soul?

I echoed, my voice filled with a mixture of disbelief and curiosity.

Me:What does that mean exactly?

Ophis regarded me with her enigmatic gaze, her dark eyes shimmering with an otherworldly light. "In simple terms," she began, her voice resonating with a calm assurance,

Ophis:a transcendent soul is one that has surpassed the limitations of mortal existence, attaining a level of power and enlightenment beyond that of ordinary beings.

As her words sank in, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement at the possibilities that lay before me. To possess such immense spiritual energy and wisdom was a dream beyond anything I had ever imagined, a testament to the countless trials and tribulations I had faced on my journey.

Me:But what does it mean for me?

I pressed, eager to understand the implications of my newfound status.

Me:What abilities do I have as a transcendent soul?

Ophis smiled faintly, a gesture that seemed almost out of place on her otherwise impassive face.

Ophis:As a transcendent soul, you possess extraordinary abilities

she explained, her voice tinged with a hint of reverence.

Ophis:You may have the power to manipulate cosmic forces, traverse dimensions, or even influence the very fabric of reality itself.

Her words filled me with a sense of wonder and excitement, the prospect of wielding such incredible power both exhilarating and daunting. But Ophis wasn't finished yet.

"Furthermore," she continued, her tone growing more solemn,

Ophis:a transcendent soul is free from the constraints of time and space. You exist in a state of eternal existence, beyond the limitations of mortal life.

The implications of her words hit me like a bolt of lightning, filling me with a sense of awe and reverence for the boundless potential that lay within me.

I then asked her

Does that mean I can finally create my own physical body

She nodded As Ophis nodded in response to my question, a surge of excitement coursed through me. The prospect of finally creating my own physical body, one that would house my transcendent soul, filled me with a sense of anticipation and wonder.

With her guidance, I focused my energy, channeling the boundless power of my transcendent soul into the creation of my new form. I pictured myself as a young boy, of average height, with brown hair and cerulean blue eyes. Each detail of my appearance took shape in my mind's eye, as if sculpting clay with the power of my thoughts alone.

As I concentrated, I could feel the energy pulsating around me, weaving together to form the intricate patterns of my physical form. It was a delicate process, requiring a precise balance of control and intention to ensure that my new body reflected the essence of my transcendent soul.

With each passing moment, my new form began to materialize before me, taking on a life of its own as it emerged from the depths of my consciousness. I could feel the warmth of my new flesh against my soul, a tangible reminder of the power and potential that lay within me.

And then, in a flash of light, it was done. Before me stood the physical embodiment of my transcendent soul, a young boy with brown hair and cerulean blue eyes, radiating with an otherworldly glow.



I looked down at my hands, flexing my fingers with wonderment. It was surreal to finally have a physical body after so long existing as a formless soul. Yet, at the same time, it felt natural, as if I had always been meant to inhabit this form.

Ophis regarded me with a nod of approval, her expression unreadable but tinged with a hint of satisfaction.

Ophis:You have done well, Kousei

she said, her voice echoing in the void.

Ophis:your new body is a reflection of your transcendent soul, a vessel through which you can interact with the physical world.

I smiled, a sense of pride swelling within me at her praise.

Me:Thank you, Ophis

I replied, gratitude lacing my words.

Me:I couldn't have done it without your guidance.

As I attempted to take my first steps in my newly formed physical body, I found myself stumbling and faltering, my legs feeling foreign and unsteady beneath me. It was a strange sensation, one that I hadn't experienced in centuries, if ever. But despite the initial awkwardness, I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all.

Me:I haven't used legs for centuries

I remarked, amusement lacing my voice as I picked myself up from the ground. The sensation of standing upright, of feeling the weight of my body pressing down against the earth, was both exhilarating and disorienting.

With each step, I could feel the muscles in my legs protesting against the unfamiliar movement, as if they were awakening from a long slumber. It took time and patience, but gradually, I began to regain my sense of balance and coordination.

Me:It's like learning to walk all over again

I mused aloud, a smile playing at the corners of my lips as I took another tentative step forward. Despite the challenges that lay ahead, there was a sense of joy and excitement bubbling within me, a newfound appreciation for the simple act of movement and mobility.

As I continued to practice walking, each step became more fluid and confident, until finally, I was able to traverse the void with ease, my movements guided by a newfound sense of grace and control.

Me:It's amazing what the body is capable of

I remarked, a sense of wonderment coloring my words as I marveled at the intricacies of my physical form.

Me:To think that I can now experience the world in a whole new way, through the senses and sensations of this body...

With each passing moment, I felt more connected to my physical form, more attuned to its nuances and subtleties.

As Ophis settled onto my lap, her presence comforting and reassuring, I couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and affection wash over me. Her nuzzling against my chest filled me with a sense of contentment, as if all was right with the world in that moment.

I turned my attention to her words, her mention of facing Great Red and reclaiming the dimensional gap sparking a flicker of excitement within me. It was a daunting prospect, to be sure, but one that filled me with a sense of purpose and determination.

Me:When will we be ready?I asked

My voice tinged with anticipation.

Me:When will the Khaos Brigade be prepared to face such a formidable opponent?

Ophis regarded me with a thoughtful expression, her dark eyes reflecting the depths of her wisdom and foresight. "Patience, Kousei," she replied, her voice gentle but firm.

Ophis: strength cannot be rushed. We must take the time to ensure that you are fully prepared for the challenges that lie ahead.

I nodded, understanding her reasoning even as a part of me yearned for action and adventure. It was important to build a strong foundation before embarking on such a perilous journey, and I trusted Ophis's judgment implicitly.

Me:And what of the Khaos Brigade?

I inquired, curious about the organization that Ophis had mentioned.

Me:What role do they play in our plans?

Ophis's lips curved into a small smile, a hint of mischief dancing in her dark eyes.

Ophis:The Khaos Brigade is a growing organization

she explained.

Ophis:They are dedicated to the pursuit of power and chaos, and they will play a crucial role in our quest to reclaim the dimensional gap.

I listened intently as Ophis outlined her vision for the Khaos Brigade, detailing their goals and objectives with a sense of clarity and purpose.

As I ran my hand through Ophis's black hair, a sense of peace washed over me. Despite all the trials and challenges we had faced, she remained a constant source of comfort and companionship, content to rest on my chest as we contemplated the world beyond.

I couldn't help but wonder what the outside world was like now. It had been so long since I had last walked among mortals, and I could only imagine how much had changed in my absence.

Ophis's words snapped me out of my reverie, her suggestion taking me by surprise.

Ophis:Maybe it's time to see it

she mused, her voice soft but filled with determination.

I blinked, stunned by her proposal. "For real?" I asked, unable to hide the excitement in my voice. The thought of finally stepping foot into the outside world filled me with a sense of anticipation and wonder.

Ophis nodded, her dark eyes sparkling with excitement.

Ophis:Yes, for real

she replied, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

Ophis:I believe it's time for us to experience everything that the world has to offer, together.

I couldn't contain my excitement as I imagined the possibilities that awaited

Timeskip brought to you by



(Ayo what the F$&#) As I stepped through the portal that Ophis had opened, I was immediately struck by the sights and sounds of the outside world. It was unlike anything I had ever seen before. The architecture was different, the people bustling about their daily lives in a manner that seemed almost foreign to me.

Me:Is this Italy?

I asked, my voice filled with wonder as I took in my surroundings. Everything seemed so vibrant and alive, a stark contrast to the emptiness of the void that I had grown accustomed to.

Ophis nodded, her expression unreadable but tinged with a hint of amusement.

Ophis:Yes, we are in Italy

she replied, her voice echoing in the bustling streets.

Ophis:It's one of the many countries that make up this world.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe as I realized just how much time had passed since I had last walked among mortals. In the void, time had no meaning, and centuries could pass in the blink of an eye. But here, in the outside world, time moved at a different pace, each moment ticking by with a sense of urgency and purpose.

As I checked the passage of time, I was surprised to discover that I had only been dead for four months. It was a jarring realization, to say the least. In the void, it had felt like an eternity had passed since my death, but in reality, it had only been a fraction of that time.

Ophis noticed my confusion and offered an explanation, her voice gentle but matter-of-fact.

Ophis:In the void, the concept of time as mortals understand it doesn't exist

she explained.

Ophis:Time is fluid, ever-shifting, and without measure. It's one of the many mysteries of the universe that we have yet to fully comprehend.

As I walked down the streets, taking in the sights and sounds of the bustling city, I couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity and wonder. Ophis's explanation about the location being one of the main branches of the church only added to my intrigue. After all, being so close to the Vatican meant that this place held significant religious importance. But why had Ophis brought us here?

I turned to her, a question lingering on the tip of my tongue.

Me:Why are we here?

I asked, unable to hide my curiosity.

Me:Is there something specific you wanted to show me?

Ophis smiled in response, her eyes twinkling with mischief.

Ophis:For you to enjoy yourself

she replied simply.

Ophis:You've worked hard, Kousei. You deserve a break and some time to relax.

I blinked in surprise, caught off guard by her unexpected response. It hadn't occurred to me that I might need a break after everything that had happened. But as I thought about it, I realized that she was right. I had been so focused on training and preparing for our mission that I had neglected to take care of myself.

Me:Thank you, Ophis

I said, gratitude filling my voice.

Me:I appreciate it.

As I wandered through the picturesque streets of Rome, the aroma of freshly baked pizza and simmering sauces filled the air, tantalizing my senses and stirring a hunger within me that I had long forgotten. It had been centuries since I had last tasted food, and the prospect of indulging in the culinary delights of the mortal world filled me with a sense of excitement and anticipation.

With each bite of crispy, wood-fired pizza and each sip of robust, full-bodied wine, I felt a sense of satisfaction and pleasure wash over me, the flavors exploding on my palate in a symphony of taste and texture. It was a sensory experience unlike any other, and I found myself relishing every moment, savoring the simple joys of good food and good company.

As I made my way through the bustling streets of Tuscan, I couldn't help but marvel at the bounty of fresh produce and local delicacies that surrounded me. From fragrant truffles to succulent roasted meats, the market was a feast for the senses, offering a glimpse into the rich culinary traditions of the region.

I sampled everything from hearty ribollita soup to delicate pici pasta, each dish a celebration of the vibrant flavors and rustic simplicity that defined Tuscan cuisine. And as I ate, I found myself transported by the warmth and hospitality of the people, who welcomed me with open arms and shared their love of food and culture with me.

In Naples, I found myself drawn to the famous pizzerias that lined the narrow cobblestone streets, their ovens blazing with heat as they churned out mouthwatering pies topped with fresh mozzarella, tangy tomato sauce, and fragrant basil. With each bite, I could taste the history and tradition that infused every slice of pizza, a testament to the enduring legacy of Neapolitan cuisine.

And as I sat down to enjoy my meal, I was joined by Ophis, who looked on with curiosity and intrigue as she sampled the flavors of human cooking for the first time. Her eyes widened in surprise as she tasted the rich, savory flavors of the pizza, her expression one of genuine delight and enjoyment.

Ophis: I never knew human food could taste this good

She remarked, her voice filled with wonderment.

Ophis:It's... incredible.

I smiled, feeling a sense of pride swell within me at her reaction. It was gratifying to share this experience with her, to introduce her to the joys of food and culture that the mortal world had to offer.

Ophis First person view

As I watched Kousei attempt to sleep, a small flicker of surprise danced within me. After all, as a transcendent soul housed within a physical body, he no longer required the same biological functions as humans did. But I understood his sentimentality, his longing for the familiar routines and experiences of his former life.

Me:You know, your physical body doesn't need sleep or the likes

I reminded him gently, my voice soft but firm. It was important for him to understand the nature of his new existence, to embrace the boundless possibilities that lay before him.

Kousei nodded, a wistful expression crossing his features.

Kousei:I know, I know

he replied with a faint smile.

Kousei:But... I used to be human, and getting a new body makes me kinda remember those days, even though I hated them

I settled onto his chest, feeling the steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath my touch. In that moment, a flood of emotions washed over me, memories and feelings that I had long since buried rising to the surface.

Ever since I met Kousei, I had discovered emotions that I never knew were possible. He had awakened something within me, a longing for connection and companionship that transcended the boundaries of my existence. And though I had initially sought his help for my own purposes, I couldn't deny the bond that had formed between us, the sense of kinship and understanding that bound us together.

As I lay there, listening to the steady cadence of his breathing, I found myself lost in thought. Despite my initial intentions, I couldn't shake the feeling that I didn't want Kousei to face Great Red, to risk his life in a battle that could very well end in tragedy. All I wanted was for him to be by my side, to share in the simple joys of existence and companionship.

But deep down, I knew that I couldn't hold him back, that his destiny lay beyond the confines of our current reality. And so, I inwardly pondered the path that lay ahead, uncertain of what the future held but hopeful that whatever challenges we faced, we would face them together.
