Isabel turned her head sharply and looked at the young man beside her.
If her name is not Char, then this god of death must be talking to him.
"It's okay." Xia Ya said, "Actually, it didn't cause me much trouble."
Sebastian straightened up and felt slightly relieved. Although he knew that the existence in front of him would definitely not blame him, he could not guarantee it.
After all, he wouldn't be in a good mood if something like this happened to him on a date.
As the God of Death, he needs to be responsible for sending all souls to the underworld in time, causing the souls to stagnate in the human world and become evil spirits, and even harm ordinary people. For him, this is a dereliction of duty.
But then, he heard Xia Ya said.
"However, your trouble is not solved yet."
Sebastian was stunned, having difficulty understanding what Char meant.
Char's head gestured in Isabel's direction.
Only then did Sebastian realize that the lady standing next to Char was not a human being, but a spirit body.
But there are some differences from the soul body, because her body is still alive, which means that the body is not actually dead.
He frowned slightly, then took out the Book of the Dead from his body and began to look up the identity of the person beside Char.
Isabel is not Char, and her information appeared in front of Sebas almost instantly.
In the Book of the Dead, in addition to her status as Queen, there is also the date of her death in her original destiny.
She should have died at the age of ninety-six from the aging of her body's organs.
Sebas stared at Isabel.
But obviously, the bone mask he was wearing was too shabby. Being stared at by someone wearing such a mask made even Isabel feel a little unnatural, and subconsciously hugged Char's arm tightly.
"I'll take you back to your body," Sebastian said.
Hearing the sound, Isabel's eyes lit up slightly, and she said excitedly, "You can let me go back."
"This is within the scope of my responsibilities." Sebastian said calmly, "However, I will clear the memories for you during the period when your soul left the body."
"As long as I can go back, I wish I couldn't remember these things." Isabel said without any hesitation.
But at this moment, Xia Ya's voice came again.
"not that simple."
Sebas raised his eyes and looked at Char.
"In your opinion, is it very common for her to be in this state?" Xia Ya asked.
Sebastian was speechless, just as Char said, rather than saying it was common, it was better to say that he had never seen this kind of thing where the body was still alive but the soul was separated from the body.
"You mean..." Sebastian said hesitantly, "This is man-made?"
"I met her halfway," Xia Ya said, "and that monster came to chase her."
Sebastian's eyes opened slightly, and he gradually connected the information in his mind.
"But, I don't understand." Sebastian was a little confused. "If someone really wants to harm her, why not just kill her and let us take her soul away. In this case, we won't provoke her at all. To Hades.”
The God of Death attaches great importance to the boundary between life and death. As long as it does not involve death or the soul, he will not interfere at all.
"What if she needs a living body?" Xia Ya continued.
Sebastian's eyelids closed slightly and he fell into deep thought.
"The soul is separated from the body, but the body is still alive. Will it be shown in the Book of the Dead?" Xia Ya said.
"Yes." Sebastian said without hesitation, "It will show that he is about to die, but the God of Death will not just take out the Book of the Dead and read it.
A day's work of harvesting souls is usually planned the day before based on the Book of the Dead.
Therefore, the God of Death will usually not notice this sudden situation caused by inhuman power until the next day. "
"So, the person behind you has one day to react." Xia Ya whispered with interest, "It seems that this person knows your God of Death very well."
After a pause, he continued to follow the reasoning, "So, in order not to attract your attention, she needs to eliminate this dying information within a day.
Does she hide her soul or share a body with this person? "
"The near-death information will also be there." Sebastian said, "The original purpose was to prevent demons from coming to the world by inhabiting the human body."
"What if the soul is destroyed?" Xia Ya said again.
"Then the information disappears." Sebastian said, "However, the death of a soul will be detected by other devices in Hades, and the God of Death will still pursue this matter."
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, his pupils shrank slightly, and then he murmured softly.
“So, she used the method of attracting evil spirits to kill people with a knife.
After the evil spirit devours the soul, it is "fused" in a strict sense rather than killed, and this state is irreversible. Therefore, the God of Death can only kill the evil spirit. "
"Then it becomes the soul killed by the "God of Death", right?" Xia Ya whispered.
Sebastian nodded with an ugly expression, "Furthermore, after the evil spirit fuses the soul, if we don't see it, we can't determine which soul is fused.
They won't go out of their way to investigate, because there is no point anymore. The soul has been swallowed up, and this person has completely disappeared from this world except for the past body that still exists in the world.
When the soul disappears, the body basically dies by default.
At most, they will investigate where the evil spirits come from and what oversights caused the soul to turn into evil spirits. "
"At this time, due to the death of the soul, the near-death information in the Book of the Dead has disappeared." Xiaya whispered softly, "If you didn't deliberately use the Book of the Dead to explore the Queen's information, there would be no This will not be discovered.”
Sebastian's face gradually darkened.
"It's the devil." He said with certainty, "Only devils need to use such complicated methods."
Assuming that the person behind it is a human with special abilities, there are many ways to control Britannia.
For example, hypnotizing Isabel, or, as he just said, directly killing Isabel and taking her place himself.
It can make the soul leave the body, and even control evil spirits. It is easy to deceive mortals by pretending to be an ordinary person.
There is no need to involve Hades at all.
And this method of occupying the body of a living person is obviously not meant to deceive mortals. Although it is different on the inside, from the outside, even the God of Death will think that it is just an ordinary living person.
This is to deceive Death, and only the devil running up from below needs to deceive Death.
The God of Death will not easily interfere in human affairs, but the devil is different.
