Chapter 4891
"
Aikawa Ayumu: "But my intuition tells me this might be perfect for Mr. Akardo."
Akardo: "......"
Akardo: "Indeed."
Akardo claimed his reward, savoring the information in his mind, his eyes gradually brightening.
Akardo: "This thing is more complicated than it seems... hmm, let me draw an analogy! You should remember the Infinite Food Cloth from Doraemon, right?"
Tsuchimikado Mai: ".
That thing seemed infinite—inside it, you could pull out anything."
Lelouch: "No no no, the Infinite Food Cloth requires you to put money into it... though honestly..."
"Whether you put money in or not, the ability to infinitely transmit food is all that matters."
Fujiwara no Saa: "!!!!"
Rikka Tsumiki: "Wait... you're comparing it to the Infinite Food Cloth—does that mean..."
Rikka Tsumiki's eyes flickered; in this moment, she realized something.
Akardo: "Yes! Under the conditions I now understand, I can pull out souls from it."
"And not just human souls—elf souls, werewolf souls, vampire souls... even the souls of gods and demons—all can be pulled from it."
"And there's no limit to the number!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi: ""
Kuroko Tetsuya: "!!"
Wudao Dong Xiang: "Holy shit... you're cheating, aren't you?!"
Kayaba Akihiko: "Akardo can use souls to cheat death... with an infinite supply of souls, he's effectively immortal! This guild reward is essentially giving him a high-intensity version of invincibility."
Ze Tian Gang Ji: "...... I was shocked too! But after hearing Kaya's explanation, I now think this reward is fairly standard."
Ze Tian Gang Ji's expression was subtly odd.
Kinomoto Sakura: "There's nothing we can do... the guild has awarded invincibility before—not once or twice."
Hinozawa Juuzauro: "I'm pondering a serious question! If we can pull out the souls of gods and demons, couldn't Akardo, in the future, fill his Soul Sea entirely with god and demon souls?"
Akardo: "Not quite! Though god and demon souls are powerful... pulling out even one requires a very long time."
Akardo: "But ordinary human souls? You can pull out a dozen with a single breath."
Misaka Mikoto: "...... I see."
Macarov: "I'm wondering... what exactly are these souls?"
Macarov's brows were tightly furrowed.
Macarov: "Soul is the foundation of life! The body can be destroyed, but if the soul is destroyed... that is true death."
Macarov: "Could this Soul Cloth actually connect to some other fantasy world—where the souls of all deceased beings are stored? But even then, that still doesn't explain the word 'infinite.'"
Cheng Long Bu Xiang Gu Kao: "Though I find it baffling too... but countless past rewards have taught me: the guild's rewards simply don't follow logic!"
Akardo: "Ahem, I can explain this... because the answer to this question is also contained within the information the system fed into my mind."
Otsutsuki Chenxiang: "!!!"
Fan Xian: "Terrifying."
Wan Nian Hou Wo Fu Huo Le: "Listened silently."
"
Akardo: "You can think of this cloth as a... soul manufacturing factory. Even if I pull out a soul and give it a matching body, it can indeed be revived—but the revived being would be like a newborn infant, with no knowledge in its mind."
Ye Hei: "I see..."
Lu Xiaofeng with Four Eyebrows: "Impressive."
Nya: "I'm curious—is this cloth a tech-based item or a mystical one?"
A Xing: "...... This is indeed an interesting question."
A Xing suddenly became interested.
A Xing: "You say it's tech-based, yet it involves the soul—something mystical. You say it's mystical, yet the concept of industrial-scale production is purely technological."
Faceless Luo Jie: "!!! A Xing, your understanding of tech and mysticism is shallow."
Luo Jie looked half-amused, half-frustrated.
Liu Peiqiang: "Yes! The guild has long recognized this: tech and mysticism ultimately converge."
Chu Liuxiang: "Regardless... this item greatly enhances Akardo's endurance—even if it doesn't directly boost his true power."
Kudo Shinichi: "I don't agree."
Kudo Shinichi: "Don't forget how Akardo dealt with Zhang Bairen before."
Kudo Shinichi pushed up his glasses; his expression turned extremely serious.
Kudo Shinichi: "The souls in the Blood Sea can be controlled by Akardo and used to attack enemies..."
