Severus rushed Scarlet to the underworld, straight to Lythia's palace while shouting her name urgently. The few grim reapers around did not stop him, in fact they rushed to assist him because it looked like the reaper in his arms was injured.You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

"What happened?" Lythia came hurrying, having been informed about that a grim reaper was injured in some way. "Put her down Severus."

Severus was barking and growling at the other reapers when they tried to touch Scarlet. "Help her." he told Lythia. "I am not sure how to explain what happened."

"I smell a soul eater." Lythia said.

"Level five," Severus told her, "I underestimated her level of preparedness and she almost got all her soul energy sucked. Something weird happened, I think she absorbed the green flame because she suddenly ...."

"Stop." Lythia shouted at him. "Leave us." she dismissed everyone around leaving only Severus. In addition to that, she ensured that the entire place was sound proofed before they could talk.

The old deity too showed up, having been called here urgently by Lythia.

"What happened to my favorite grim reaper?" he asked casually when he saw Scarlet on the couch. "Oooh, a nasty soul eater I see."

"It's not that my Lord," Lythia said, "She seems to have absorbed a flame, a green flame according to Severus."

"It was in the shape of a soul crystal, I could feel the energy from many miles away. Moreover, it was in a place we had cleansed previously because there was a hoard of soul collectors. The level five soul eater was heading the entire operation and we missed it because it was not around initially." he explained.

"The flame crystal was not there before?" the old deity asked.

"It wasn't, it had to have been put there after we were gone. Anyway, I don't know how she did it but she absorbed the flame crystal and used it's power to burn the soul eater. Not only did she burn it she liberated all the souls it gobbled up. There were like a thousand souls and it was just vomiting them out."

"Gross." Lythia said.

"That's not normal." the old deity added.

"Yes," she clenched her fist, "It will never happen again." She vowed to herself. "There were other souls there, they were faint but I saw them." she looked at him.

"Well......" Severus said in a high pitched voice, unsure about what to tell her.

"You refined them." Lythia strolled in and announced. "You absorbed the green flame, burned the soul eater and freed the souls inside which you refined into energy and absorbed, growing your own soul strength and leveling up."

Scarlet listened to Lythia and then at Severus, "Explain." she told him.

"It's all happened as she said, this is new to me as well." He told her.

"I think I might have some answers." the old deity appeared and announced. "Hello, my favorite grim reaper, you are quite full of surprises aren't you?"

"Hello," Old deity, she bowed.

"You should get out of the rejuvenation pond now Scarlet, we can't you absorbing all the good stuff." the old deity smiled. "That flame of yours is capable of absorbing really anything with energy now which is why we will not be sharing this new fantastic detail about you with anyone else. You my dear have become a natural refiner, it takes years for the souls eaten by soul eater to be refined by a special artifact into energy which is infused with soul crystals that are then used by grim reapers in soul cultivation. That abnormal flame of yours does this job in an instant, making you a living, walking refinement tool."

Scarlet was bewildered and surprised, but she thought for a moment, isn't this a good thing for me?

"You are thinking that it's a good thing for you, right?" the old deity asked her. "It's not, uncontrolled you are capable of absorbing the soul strength of your fellow reapers. Imagine what will happen if you are fighting, lose your mind for a second and suck them dry like a soul eater."

"It will be a disaster." Lythia said.

"You cannot use it until you learn how to control it." the old deity warned her.

With that warning, the old deity disappeared and Lythia looked at Scarlet and Severus with worry.

"I guess we should return to our world now, thank you for everything." Scarlet said.

"Mm, take care of yourselves." Lythia nodded and vanished too.
