Angor understood now. He was a soul, so he did not need to eat, and could not throw up… Also, he was badly hurt after being attacked by younger Sunders, but he did not bleed at all. That was because he did not have a body.
Sunders remained silent for some time before he said, “You felt your physical abilities improved. It was because your soul became more condensed. It might be the wall’s doing. Looks like you found a pretty good destiny this time. Once we leave, take the spiritual power test again, and you will see a better result.”
Wizards could not cast spells easily in the Nightmare Realm, so Sunders did not waste his mana to observe Angor’s spiritual power indicator now. Seeing how Angor’s soul was condensed, the man could already deduct his conclusion.
To improve one’s spiritual power was a really rare destiny. Even Sunders was a bit jealous.
“The wall did this to me? Not Glutton Flower’s spit?” asked Angor. He was puzzled.
“What you consumed wasn’t Glutton Flower’s spit. It was the essence of Glutton Flower Lord,” said Sunders. He failed to hold back his laughter as he said, “Now I know how you come all the way here in one piece. You have the aura of the Glutton Flower Lord on you, and all weaker monsters will never approach you now. So that’s where the sweet smell came from.”
I have a sweet smell?
Angor sniffed his arm and did notice a faint fragrance.
“When will this wear off? Can it follow me back to the wizarding world?” asked Angor. He revealed a sad face as he did not want to carry the smell at all times.
“I don’t know about that. Maybe it will, and maybe not,” answered Sunders. He spread his hands and said, “Don’t worry too much. Flora will certainly envy you. Besides, the essence of Glutton Flower Lord was an extremely valuable treasure. It mends one’s soul and can keep the user in a high spirit for a short while. Don’t complain now. The small side effect will go away in time.
“It seems the wall is a curious artifact. It put you in great pain, but it also improved your spiritual power. If it could keep doing that, its value is beyond anyone’s imagination. Once you become stronger, let’s come here and check out that wall together. Maybe we can learn something from it,” said Sunders. He patted the boy’s shoulder as he added, “Of course this is on the condition that those Glutton Flowers are still friendly to you. Otherwise, within the first minute when we step into the flower tunnel, we will become their fertilizer.”
