Death… And Me Chapter 2512 Not The Same

Chapter 2512 Not The Same

?*Roar!*
The Light Beast wanted to die already. "Stop it! Stop it right now!"
Rean ignored it and continued to pet it. Not only did he pet the Light Beast, but he also added his own Light Element to the mix. That was pretty much the best petting of all time. "But aren't you a good beasty?"
"I'm a good beas- Stop it! No, don't stop- I mean, stop it!" The Light Beast couldn't even speak straight anymore as both sides of its emotions fought each other. One was its prideful side, which couldn't accept such humiliation. The other was his seeking-attention side, which just couldn't help but ask for more.
Rean smiled before asking while he continued his special treatment. "Is the good beasty going to cooperate? Of course, you are. Who's a good beasty who talks, uh? Who's a good talking beasty?"
"I'm a good talking beas- your ass! I'm not- I'll tell you everything you wan- No! I'm not talking!" The 'suffering' of the poor Light Beast continued for an hour straight. Finally, its mind was broken, and it completely fell to its instincts. Rean even stopped using his Divine Energy to confine the Light Beast without saying anything. Before the Light Beast knew it, it was already lying with its belly up, showing an expression of pure happiness.
"So..." Rean continued his work while he talked. "What is your name?"
"I don't really have a name, master," the Light Beast answered.
Rean pondered a bit and continued his questions. "What is this Mirror Globe, good beasty? Tell your master what it is about. Don't lie to me. Otherwise, I won't play with you anymore."
"Yes, master!" Afraid that Rean might stop, the Light Beast immediately told everything it knew about the Mirror Globe. "The Mirror Globe's name is actually the Soul Copying Sphere. This is only one of the two types, the Spherical one. There is also another type, the Soul Copying Cube, which is obviously a Cube."
"Oh!" Rean was surprised to hear that. "Could it be that you are the copy of a previous expert who entered this Azum Dimensional Realm? Do you also carry their memories?"
"I'm indeed a copy, master! A copy of an Angel Beast's soul." The Light Beast answered. "However, we don't carry the memories. Memories are stored in the brain, after all. Unless you are a very high-level expert who can transfer his memories into the soul, like when they want to reincarnate with their memories, the souls are usually empty of any information."
Rean nodded. He found out about it pretty much at the same time as he first met Roan on the other side of the Universe. Souls without a body couldn't even generate thoughts. Of course, there were exceptions, like the Demon Plants, who didn't really have a brain. In their case, their memories were stored in their Demon Plant Core. Other types of exception also existed for some weird races, but in the grand scheme of things, most living beings used their brains for such functions.
"Very well, that's a very good talking beasty," Rean answered with his happy expression. "Anyway, I've only seen the Spherical Type until now. Yet, when I destroyed them, I found some monoliths inside... or perhaps they are the cubes you talked about?"
"They are the link, master!" The Light Beast quickly answered. "Every single Soul Copying Sphere is connected to a Soul Copying Cube on the other side of the Chasm. The cubes you found inside are the connection. On the other side, the Soul Copying Cubes have a miniature version of the Soul Copying Spheres."
"I see, I see..." Rean wondered the reason behind all of this. "So, beasty, what's the purpose of these Soul Copying Devices? It seems like they had never been used before."
"I'm not sure, master." The Light Beast didn't hide anything. "I'm only responsible for helping with the protection of my Soul Copying Sphere. I'm not sure what they are for."
"That's not a problem," Rean wasn't expecting to find all the answers from this Light Beast anyway. "How come no one ever found out about it before? You have only appeared recently, right?"
"That's not correct, master," the Light Beast quickly corrected. "We have been operating for millions of years, copying the most talented souls we can find. It's just that anyone who leaves this Dimensional Realm will forget everything regarding the Soul Copying Devices, master."
"Everything?" Rean found it hard to believe. "I know that at first, this place was explored by high-level angels, most likely Archangels. Were you able to wipe their memories about the Soul Copying Devices, too?"
The Light Beast didn't have an answer for that either. "I'm not sure, master. Such events happened a long time before I was born. As far as I know, the Archangels might know everything, or they might really have lost their memories."
Rean pondered a bit and asked something else. "Alright, do you know who is behind these Soul Copying Spheres and Cubes? I know you don't know their purpose, but perhaps you have seen the one giving orders?"
"I haven't, master." The Light Beast's tail went right and left as it answered. "Other than the other Light Beasts, beasty has never seen anyone else. Of course, not counting the Angels that enter our territory before we kill them."
Rean sighed, seeing that there wasn't much more to be gained. "It's okay. Do you know that the Angels that die here actually don't die outside?"
"Yes," The Light Beast noticed it already. "There have been many times when I saw the same Angel appearing even though I killed him. No one told me, but it wasn't hard to guess that the Angels I destroyed weren't real. However..."
"However?" Rean insisted, seeming to understand the Light Beast had something important to tell.
The Light Beast seemed to regain a little of clarity before it was lost once again to the pleasure. "Even though I killed the same angels several times... their bodies felt different somehow. They were indeed the same, same appearance, same cultivation, same skills, same power... But I truly felt like I've never killed the exact same body that I killed the first time."
Rean narrowed his eyes. "Not the same body..."
