SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

"How do you intend to transfer his soul?" Kuzon's voice overlapped with Beruel's tone of awe as he kept observing his new vessel.

The young Midas gave a small smile of curiosity, and his narrowed eyes told Ana that he was interested in how she intended on doing it.

'She's going to surprise me, isn't she?'

Beruel glanced at the two before the question finally registered in his head.

"Ah, yes... the transfer. How will that work? I've tried many times to transfer myself to the numerous bodies I made, but... I can't."

Beruel wasn't an expert at Soul Magic, so he couldn't move his own soul from his body to another vessel.

"Even for those with some experience and skill in Soul Magic, it's difficult for them to transfer their own souls from their bodies. It's much easier to do it for others."

After all, when someone's soul left their body, they were sort of dead. They no longer had any control or means of manifestation in the world.

Beruel wasn't even an expert in Soul Magic, to begin with. Even though he had made so many clones, none of them could be his new vessel.

"Surely, you have a plan to do that. I'm surprised, though. To think a young girl like you could utilize Soul Magic. You're a genius." The Fairy King wasn't stingy with compliments at this point.

His excited gaze hadn't left the vessel.

"Well, I can't use Soul Magic. I know about the concepts, thanks to Lewis Griffith's books, Jane Ursula's project, and also Jared's recent Soul Brand Magic. So, theoretically, I know of it..."

"Eh?'"

Beruel suddenly froze in his excitement and glanced at Ana with an expression that seemed to be a hybrid between horror and shock.

"What... are you… saying?"

If he heard her correctly, then Ana wouldn't be able to help him. What was the point behind this whole project? He'd thought she had a plan. Had she just been leading him on?

'No, no, that's not possible. She even resorted to that Magic Contract. I mean, if she doesn't fulfil her end, the contact will be nullified.' Beruel's thoughts rang.

Even Kuzon gave Ana a quizzical look.

With both men staring at her with such unfiltered surprise, Ana realized that she had to word her intentions more clearly.

"Relax. Just because I can't use it doesn't mean I don't have a plan."

The old Fairy sighed with relief. He had felt betrayed not too long ago.

"The key to the plan, however, is not me... but Kuzon."

"Uh? Me?" Kuzon's eyes widened the moment his name was mentioned.

"Yes. If you utilize your Arcana, you can transfer the Soul from Beruel's old body to this one."

The room fell silent in a flash. Once again, the two males were in shock—not because they were impressed with Ana, but because of how ridiculous her idea sounded.

"You want me to use [The Emperor] on his Soul? Really? What do you know about my Arcana's ability?"

"It can control anything, right?"

"There are some conditions, but yes."

"Even incorporeal or energy-based substances can be controlled, right?"

"Well, yes..."

Ana smiled at Kuzon's response, indicating that she knew he could do the job.

"Why factor me into this plan at all? I remember not being interested in saving his life." The boy sighed in indifference.

In response, she shrugged while smiling.

"There's another way, but that's much tougher. The probability of its success is also low, and I'll probably need Jared's help to make it more certain. If you want me to resort to that, then—"

"Fine, I'll do it." Kuzon sighed.

Kuzon's swift response made Ana happy, causing her to clap her hands while giggling with excitement.

"That's perfect! Thanks, Kuzon!"

It wasn't like she had given him much of a choice, though. The girl had simply used his rivalry with Jared as a way to get what she wanted.

Besides, at this point, Kuzon wasn't averse to Beruel's cooperation. However, one problem had not yet been accounted for.

"For me to use [The Emperor] on anyone or anything, I must be superior. However, my Soul is far younger than Beruel's. That makes the equation imbalanced."

Ana smiled and shook her head in disagreement.

"Use your Familiar as a base. It's a Bond Soul, isn't it?"

"How do you know if it's ancient enough?" Kuzon raised his brow in curiosity.

"Gut feeling."

The golden-haired boy sighed at his partner's carelessness. He knew there were underlying principles behind her rash personality, but he couldn't help wondering about the lengths she was willing to go to in order to achieve her goals.

"Well, I guess that could work. To make the process smoother and painless, I'd advise Beruel not to resist."

The Fairy King was nervous at this point.

His eyes kept moving between Kuzon and his new body. He didn't know how to feel about the boy, considering how his subordinate died at his hands.

'Well, I collected Murel's body samples before his death. I wanted to create clones for him too. Thankfully, I still have them.'

That meant he could revive him too. It was due to this very reason that he was able to bury his burning rage—at least to an extent—against Kuzon.

Well, it was also because of what happened all those years ago... with the Midas Race.

"I understand. Do it."

A golden glow suddenly burst out of Kuzon's body, and his eyes glowed ever so brightly. In a flash, the room was brightly lit—even more than normal.

Kuzon moved closer to Beruel and placed his hand on the old Fairy's body. This caused him to instantly fall unconscious.

His body went from dry to completely pale and cold.

It became evident after a few seconds... Beruel was dead.

However, floating on Kuzon's second hand was a bright orb shrouded in his golden energy.

Kuzon's eyes settled on the pure white mold in Ana's possession, and he sent the bright cluster of light in its direction.

Like a guided firefly the light danced as it progressed, until it finally entered the lump. The white sphere glowed, and it swiftly flew away from Ana's grasp. It rose to the air and remained suspended for a moment.

Then...

... It began to take form.
