I have Nine Lives

The moment Felix closed his eyes he entered his mindscape... and all he saw there was chaos, well not on his memories or anything, there was a chaotic black bear with red eyes rampaging around like he was in his backyard.

Up till now, Felix didn't want to enter his mindscape so he didn't, as his soul got stronger he started to be able to control if he wanted to enter or not.

So he didn't enter it unless he felt confident enough to take care of the rampaging black bear shaman.

Felix's existence attracted the attention of the rampaging black bear, after all, all he did was a roar at the memories and slash at them every moment that he continued to live in Felix's consciousness, he just didn't have anything better to do. But now that Felix's soul appeared in his mindscape it was time for a rumble!

The spiritual body of the black bear immediately ran on all fours as he approached Felix's location, upon the train station roof!

Felix watched him approach him before he disappeared using his stealth technique, His disappearance from his view made the bear flustered and even angrier than before!

How dare my prey disappear? He thought.

Then he started another rampage as he used his claws to strike at the bottom of the train station building but all his claws did was go through the memory as if it was a mirage... only Felix the owner of the memories could interact with them as if they were physical.

Suddenly the hide of the black bear had three claw marks on it... but nothing more, no blood nor wound appeared, this made the black bear stretch his head and look at the new injury on his back and then he scratched his head... when did that appear there?

Now that he had no intelligence left all he could do was act upon his instincts, that slash attack was just like a mosquito bite so even though he felt it, it didn't do much besides annoying him a bit.

Felix frowned as he kept himself hidden, such a strong attack made only three claw marks appear, it didn't even pierce through his skin and it only moved his hair a bit.

What type of defenses did this bear's soul have? The other rebels' souls were easily cut into two the moment his claws found their mark.contemporary romance

It seemed a shaman's soul was truly special.

Suddenly the black bear bellowed as he tried to strike the memories in front of him even harder, he was really going berserk at this point...

He even started to run around trying to attack the small empty spaces between memories...

Felix was moving through memory nodes as he looked at the bear's attempts to find him, due to his unexistent intelligence, while he realized that Felix was still here somehow, he didn't know where and how he could reach him to devour him.

The remaining capabilities of the bear's soul were very basic... all he knows was getting angry and trying to recover his former memories, Siracha could have annihilated the soul but he decided in giving Felix this 'gift' instead.

At this point Felix didn't know if this was truly a gift or a calamity, he tried to shoot some of his claws during the bear's rampage but all they did was bounce off him like a ball hitting a wall.

What type of defenses did this thing have?

Felix started to breathe in and out as he used his combat breathing technique and a dark slash made its way towards the bear's neck... it left a small trail of blood in its wake and the slash disappeared afterward.

A small wound appeared on the bear's neck before it sealed up leaving a few drops of blood on Felix's memories which were then absorbed.

The black bear shaman immediately struck towards Felix's direction using his big paws to try and squeeze Felix to death!

Felix frowned as he dodged by jumping backward and keeping his presence concealed.

The bear's antics didn't stop here as he continuously tried to bang his head on Felix's memories to shake them and destroy them... only for him to continue failing, while his soul body was certainly overpowered he had no refinement nor technique that he could use to destroy Felix's memories.

Felix didn't know what to do in this situation... he used one of his stronger techniques right now, he still had his ultimate technique but he could feel that he used his soul's stamina after he used that technique. His soul was already not in tip-top shape so any more uses of the techniques would damage his soul just like Lindo's.

He wasn't sure what benefits he would get from absorbing the shaman's soul, but it surely wasn't time for him to fight it out with it now!

He just wasn't strong enough to do it yet, maybe if he exhausted his soul until it cracked just maybe, they would end up destroying each other.

Felix closed his eyes as he kept himself hidden while trying to leave the mindscape, he felt his soul shake as he was suddenly attacked by the black bear and his soul coughed out a bunch of blue blood.

Felix frowned as he skidded through his memories before disappearing again, how was he found?

Felix didn't know but when he was exiting the mindscape he would glow and his stealth would be canceled.

This was the first injury Felix had on his soul since he arrived in this new world.. one that didn't transfer from the previous one.

It certainly didn't feel nice.

He looked down at his chest to see a small gash appearing there, it seemed that injuries to the soul were smaller compared to the ones inflicted on the body, as the same impact that the bear shaman did on him, his main body would have split and broken into pieces, limbs flying around.

Felix could feel that he was getting healed pretty quickly, the same amount of lives still appeared in the corner of his vision but he didn't really know if this ability could be used for his soul, the explanation of the God of trickery told him that while his body was reconstructed his soul was the same, he only stopped the God of death from taking him to the afterlife.

So he realized that he should be a little more careful with his soul from now on, after all, what would happen when his soul was destroyed? Would he even end up in the same situation as before or would he just disappear?

Felix didn't want to find out at all.

But how could he disappear from the mindscape without getting the attention of the bear shaman's soul?

This was a question Felix had an easy answer to... defeat the bear shaman, or learn why the bear shaman could find him while he was exiting the mindscape.

Fortunately, he couldn't find him while he was thinking, or else he would have had more than a closing wound on his chest right now.

Felix shuttled through his memories at a quick speed as he observed the behavior of the black bear, now that he had 'tasted blood' he was even more irascible than before if that was possible.

The black bear's attempt at trying to find Felix was unfruitful but he had all the time in the world to act crazily so he did just that.

Felix actually started to get a bit scared at this point... what if he couldn't leave his mental scape anymore? Would he be stuck here? What about his body?

Maybe he came in a little bit too early to try and eliminate the black bear shaman's soul...

Felix shook his head as he cleared his emotions, there was no time for fear now, he had to do his best to get out of this hairy situation he put himself in.

He decided to use his ultimate technique even if it meant his soul might get injured beyond repair, it was unknown what would happen while he was stuck inside his mindscape or if he would automatically leave it when his body was supposed to wake up, as time was dilated between his mindscape and the 'real world' so he wasn't sure how much time passed since he entered the mindscape.

He frowned as his breathing continued, he couldn't use surrounding Hex energy to power it up so he was using his soul power, but he felt something was wrong... he was using a body technique in his soul form!

He wasn't even supposed to do this, maybe this was the reason he wasn't doing any damage to the black bear?

But he didn't know any soul techniques!

Where could he learn a soul technique? He stopped his ultimate breathing technique as the soul power that he didn't use restored itself, unlike in his body he could cancel the techniques and restore the soul power that he put in motion.

Now the only problem that remained was getting or making a soul technique from scratch so that he could escape his own mindscape...
