It is the natural order that one body can only hold one soul and thing more and the body will collapse similar to how a balloon bursts when excess air is allowed into it. Right now my body was edging the limit to collapse due to an extra soul. If the soul pathway bridge between the two souls breaks then my body will also collapse with it.

Now I had to enhance and strengthen the soul pathway bridge with more soul pathways from both the souls such that the bridge will become so wide and swallow half of both souls to merge into a single soul with a narrow centre familiar to the soul of the Twin headed Ogre. The enhancing and strengthening of the soul pathway bridge using the soul pathways from both the souls will be done by following the soul pathway arrangement in the Twin headed Ogre mutated soul.

This process was hectic and time-consuming as even though it’s just copying the soul pathways are very delicate so I had to be very careful and the soul pathway arrangement had to be very detailed one wrong soul pathway connection could lay waste to all my efforts until now. Finally confirming all the soul pathway arrangements are accurately reflected I circulated my soul energy to see the result of my artificially mutated soul.

As soul as I circulated my soul energy through my new mutated soul, I felt a pain in my soul far worse than William slicing my soul, the two souls in my new single mutated were fighting and trying to swallow each other and the soul pathway bridge I created between them following the soul pathway arrangement in the Twin headed Ogre mutated soul was trying hard to maintain equilibrium between the two souls which were artificially stitched together to form a single mutated soul.

I was in so much pain that I could not scream my mind was blank and my drool was flowing from my mouth, I just lay on the floor of the card room like a brain dead idiot while my mutated soul did its thing. Finally, the soul bridge could not maintain the equilibrium and was swallowed by both the souls, this way both souls had finally become truly one mutated soul instead of an artificial mutated soul formed of two souls combined using a soul bridge.

After the pain in my soul had subsided due to the successful formation of my very own single mutated soul and another mournful pain followed as my consciousness was splitting to form a two consciousness. This time I tolerated the pain made sure to program the new consciousness into becoming a slave conscious for my main consciousness as it was forming.

Once the formation of second consciousness was done I still did not relax since I thought next my mental strength will divide between the two consciousness but that pain never can, turns out the mental strength of my main consciousness will not be divided between the two consciousness instead my second consciousness will have to develop its own mental strength from scratch just like my main consciousness did.

No wonder the parallel thinking card was total trash even though it made use of rare and expensive ingredients like Twin headed ogre core, etc. Twin headed ogre soul pathway do not divide mental strength but they divide the ogre’s consciousness itself. That card apprentice made use of the soul pathways which divide consciousness to make a card that divides mental strength, it’s already remarkable that they were able to form a card even with such a mistake.

Next, I ran my soul energy throughout my body to check the properties of the mutated soul energy and if its enhancement were worthy of the rumours about it. As the mutated soul pumped new mutated soul energy I analysis it, the mutated soul energy was I did worthy of its praise, I felt twice as stronger not only that the new mutated soul energy was thicker and purer than the normal soul energy. As the mutated soul energy entered my grimoire it shone with bright silver light this silver light was brighter and sharper than the light grimoire previously emitted.

Then the sliver light spread to my body coating my skin in a thick and bright silver light it looked so holy and as if my body was covered in some silver-coloured inner armour, they say you can’t feel light but see it… right now caressing my skin I had an illusion as if I could feel the silver light covering skin, that’s how thick and bright the silver light emitted from the grimoire was. It seems mutated soul energy is a powerful as rumours about it.

As I was admiring the silver light the grimoire suddenly stopped emitting Silverlight, I had exhausted all the soul energy in the creation of the mutated soul now I had to replenish it. So I took the two soul jades I used earlier to develop my sliced part of soul into a full soul and began to extract soul energy from it. There was still soul energy felt in the two soul jades, earlier I use it completely for the second soul creation because after certain about of extraction of soul energy the extraction process slow’s, therefore to not hinder the process of soul creation I used a new soul jade.

As I slowly absorbed the leftover soul energy in the soul jade I suddenly had the feeling of being full and the next second a huge energy burst within me marking the sign of a breakthrough in my active soul control. The breakthrough was very large as for a second I almost believed that I was invincible and started to think no one could defeat me. The sudden breakthrough in my active soul control was not a surprise to me as I already would my considerable progress in my active soul control after I successfully mutate my soul.

Even though the sudden breakthrough in my active soul control was not a surprise to me as I already knew I would make considerable progress in my active soul control after I successfully mutate my soul but I was surprised by the level of progress in my active soul control, I jumped from 17% to 24% of active soul control and directly stepped into Card scholar realm from card student realm.

I guess this huge progress in my active soul control is justified considering how the mutated soul is made up of two complete souls and I spent two soul jades to form them. All that excess energy was bound to go somewhere and I directly broke through from card student realm to card scholar realm.

24% active soul control meant 48 soul power was at my disposal now I could equip both my abyssal bear card and stealth armour card together, these two cards along with my mutated soul energy were enough to make me invincible within the card scholar realm.

I barely had 5 cards and even after breaking into the card scholar realm still, my star power was not enough to equip all of my cards even though three of my cards are of near-perfect star rating.

No wonder the card apprentices with the humble background are so weak and able to achieve so little even after being card apprentices for so long. The Star ratings of a low priced card are so high that a card apprentice in the card student and scholar realm can barely equip 2 or 3 cards at max and since these cards are cheap you know they are not strong cards. With such weak strength, they are bound to fail as adventurers compared to rich card apprentices whose parents buy them the best and expensive and for these poor card apprentices, they have to rely on their extreme skills and struggle to climb higher in society.

There seemed to be new changes in my status page as two new data’s physique and traits were added. Through which I knew that my mutated soul was considered as physique and mutated soul energy and Dual- Consciousness were considered traits. Since I had never heard of physique and traits I will have to ask around about this. Maybe other card apprentices might have also opened new data on their status page.
