The fairy trembled upon hearing Presley's command, and it quickly nodded its head before flying in a circle above Juin's unconscious body. 

It then flew toward Juin's forehead. When it was right above Juin's forehead, it looked at its hands with a sad expression before placing the two tiny hands on Juin's forehead. Closing its eyes, the fairy then directed its healing ability into Juin's body. 

"What is she doing now?" Cyrus asked while looking at the little fairy with a conflicted expression. He knew that Tucker was right; Juin was more important. But even so, he felt bad for the little fairy... and also a part of him really wanted to play with the little creature as well.

"At that age, fairies are genderless, so call the little thing it… It will help in detaching yourself from it," Tucker said, placing a hand behind Cyrus' back to comfort him while looking at Presley carefully. He could sense Cyrus' discomfort from the moment Presley walked in, and this was something that he had known for a while.

To avoid Presley's detection, he tried to make Cyrus relax as much as possible by directing the young beast's attention away from Presley.

"The little fairy is using its life force, which is connected to its healing ability, to look for the issue within Juin's body. The uniqueness of using this healing method is that these fairies could heal not only one's physical injuries but also injuries to one's soul." 

One's soul power reserve could actually be affected if one's soul was hurt, so any injury to the soul was given an equal amount of attention just like any injury to the body, if not more. For supernatural humans whose soul power reserves meant everything to them, if they only had limited resources, they would prefer to spend their resources on fixing their souls rather than their bodies. 

Looking at Presley, who was standing in a relaxed manner next to Juin's unconscious body, Tucker could not help but think, "Did he find something more about Juin? A Golden Fairy Orb is not cheap and is usually used in a more dire situation. Sure, Juin's condition doesn't seem good, but this guy actually took out such a piece of expensive healing equipment without doing more checking?"



Meanwhile, in Juin's Soul Dimension…

Juin was somehow trapped in his own Soul Dimension with Lucifer, unable to leave.

"We overspent your energy again…" Lucifer massaged his glabella when Juin failed to wake up in the physical world. 

When Juin's physical body went unconscious, Hades, actually appeared back to where he was, dangling in midair with no sign that he actually woke up earlier. Even his eyes were closed. 

Then not long later, Hades disappeared while Juin reappeared, confused. 

Since then, they had been trying to get Juin to leave the Soul Dimension and wake up, but it looked like the damage to Juin's body was worse than they thought. 

Lucifer suddenly glanced at Juin, and after a while, he asked, "Do you remember what happened earlier?" 

Juin nodded as he sat down on the ground, having given up on his attempts to wake up. "Luca summoned that weird wind creature and tornado… Then we merged and you took over…"

He then looked at Lucifer and said, "Then I went into this weird place… And I met him, the other me."

The memory of meeting Hades unnerved Juin again. It was creepy to see someone with his face talking back to him, to know that they were one… And what bothered Juin the most was the fact that he knew he was just a split from the original soul. In front of Hades, who was nothing but a shackled soul, he was so weak, to the point that he could do nothing but tremble in fear.

Seeing Juin's expression, which had turned fearful all of a sudden, Lucifer frowned and asked, "What did he say to you?"

Juin shook his head. "Nothing much… Only that we were one, and to not…"

He stopped himself and stared at Lucifer for a long time, until the latter asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?" 

"Your Majesty… Lucifer… Can I trust you?" Juin asked, remembering Hades' warning. "Can I really trust you?"

Lucifer frowned, and after a while, he rolled his eyes and said, "What the hell are you talking about now… Who can you trust if not me?" 

He then waved a hand nonchalantly and floated up. Lying on his back, he stared at the endless ceiling and asked, "Anyway, did Hades do anything to you?"

"No. He just touched my face," Juin said, recalling the moment when Hades touched him. Hades' touch startled him and made him shiver uncontrollably, and there seemed to be a lingering cold that would never go away. Just the memory itself caused Juin to shiver again.

"How are you feeling now?" Lucifer asked when he saw Juin shiver. "You look pale, and given that you are in your soul form now, that's not a good thing."

Juin looked at his hands and shrugged. "Weird. But after he was gone… Somehow… I feel a surge in my energy…" 

"What do you mean?" Lucifer asked, finally looking at Juin again. 

"I think…" Juin frowned slightly. "I think my strength has increased…"

Lucifer's eyes widened, and he finally realized something. Before, when he overspent Juin's energy and rendered him unconscious, even Juin's soul would be rendered unconscious. But now, Juin's soul was there, talking with him, as if his physical body were just taking a nap and that he could wake up anytime when that was the furthest from the truth.

"Tell me more," Lucifer demanded. "What else are you feeling now?"

Before Juin could elaborate further, he felt a sense of warmth running through his power, making his soul feel extremely comfortable. A bright light emerged from his body, and at the same time, the tiredness that he felt earlier was slowly lifted, and he soon felt more and more energetic.

"What's this?" Juin wondered out loud as he looked up. 

Lucifer noticed the same thing, and he floated down to stand next to Juin. Being in Juin's Soul Dimension, as well as having contracted with him, whenever Juin's soul had any changes, he could feel it as well. "Someone's trying to fix your soul…"

He then stared at Juin, and after a while, he saw two small golden palm prints appearing on Juin's forehead. "Stay still," Lucifer said as he reached out.
