Chapter 143: Instincts II
"And because of that, don't you think your instincts will also be able to solve this problem?" The other half of the Blood Guardian's soul spoke.
And what he said makes enough sense for the Blood Guardian to think about it.
After all, it was the truth that the Blood Guardian did come here with the help of his instincts.
The Blood Guardian just forgot about it during the moment because he was too shocked and surprised to see the other half of his soul looking like his master.
However, now that the Blood Guardian got the grip on himself and was thinking right now, he thought that what the other half of his soul said was reasonable.
But...there is something that the Blood Guardian is curious of, and that is...
"Didn't you say that you don't know how to do this? How come it looks like you know how to do it?" The Blood Guardian asked the other half of his soul.
Of course, this was about how the other half of his soul is able to tell him what he should do so accurately.
Well, it is because the other half of his soul indeed knew how he would be able to do it, but he just does not know how he would be able to explain it.
If one had to explain it in detail, it is like muscle memory for the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul.
He knows how to do it, his body knows how to do it, his mind knows how to do it, but his consciousness is not aware of how he is able to do it.
But because the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul is able to instruct the Blood Guardian on how to do it so clearly, the Blood Guardian naturally thought that the other half of his soul lied to him.
It was only natural though that he would end up thinking like that since it would make no sense for the other half of his soul to be able to tell him so precisely on how he would be able to take him into his consciousness if he does not know how to do it.
That was why the Blood Guardian just had to ask the other half of his soul about this.
After all, even though they were still technically the same creature, the Blood Guardian is not necessarily happy about how the other half of his soul lied to him.
Of course, this does not really mean that the Blood Guardian would get mad and try to kill the other half of his soul.
That would be idiotic. That was why he only asked the other half of his soul about it...since that's really all that he can do.
And the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul knows that as well.
The other half of the Blood Guardian's soul has two options in this situation.
He can either ignore what the Blood Guardian asked and just prompt him to continue on with the process, or he can just answer him.
Of course, if he answered him, it would make things complicated since...the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul does not really know what he should answer the Blood Guardian's question with.
That was why...the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul decided to...answer the question.
After all, it would be better to clear any doubts that the Blood Guardian might have now.
"Well, I do not know how to explain it to you, but I kind of know how you can take me into your consciousness."
"No, to be exact, my instincts know how to do it. That is why I suggested that you can do it with your instincts as well."
"After all, we are the same creature, living as one soul. If I can do it that way, then you can do it that way as well."
The other half of the Blood Guardian's soul said, and what he said was reasonable.
If the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul can do it, then that must mean that the Blood Guardian can do it, too.
After all, they were literally the same person. However, there was something off about that, which is why the Blood Guardian spoke once more.
"Then...since we are the same person, does that mean that you can also do what I can do?" The Blood Guardian said.
Of course, the Blood Guardian is interested in this as this was something that was...concerning for him.
The Blood Guardian is created by Lucifer, and he takes great pride in that, just as expected.
And because he is created by Lucifer, the Blood Guardian does not want anyone else to be able to replicate what he can do.
The Blood Guardian is so special that he has been granted the right to take over Lucifer's body while healing him, after all.
However, right now, there is someone who says that he can also do the same things as him.
The same things that Lucifer granted him...and that was something that the Blood Guardian did not really like.
No, he did not like it at all. If one thinks about how the Blood Guardian is acting right now, he seems to be childish.
However, the Blood Guardian did not care about that as he just wanted to have the answer to his question.
Of course, the other half of his soul can tell what he was thinking.
After all, it was easy to see through what he was thinking.
Anyway, because of this, the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul was put into a tough spot.
Why? It was because it was the truth that the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul can really do what the Blood Guardian can do.
After all, they were the same person. It would be ridiculous instead if the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul can not do what the Blood Guardian can do.
However, one can also say that the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul can not do what he can do.
It was...confusing, but that was the truth.
It was both...yes and no.
That was why the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul does not really know how he would answer the question of the Blood Guardian.
However, since they didn't really have the time anymore and they have to do it as fast as possible so they can lessen the risk on Lucifer's life, the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul decided to just fuck it and tell the Blood Guardian.
"The answer to your question is...both yes and now. Yes, I can do the same things that you can do without any problem. I can also use the healing ability that you have."
"Literally, everything that you can do, I can also do. If ever we swapped out, no one would notice the difference between the two of us."
"However, there is something preventing me from being able to do that."
"The reason for that is because Lucifer, the one who created us, made you as the main body for the 'Blood Guardian.'"
"You are the main body...main soul...main brain...and most importantly, main persona."
"In other words, I can only do the things that you can do if and only if...you allow me to."
"You can think of me as...yes, some sort of backup plan instead you failed."
"Of course, the one who set this all up is Lucifer."
The other half of the Blood Guardian's soul said those words without any hesitation, and he said it fast.
And what he said was...astonishingly confusing. Well, it was no surprise. He both said that he can do and cannot do at the same time.
There is no answer more confusing than the answer that he gave.
However, there was something important in what he said.
It is probably the most important thing.
And that was the fact that...it was Lucifer who set it all up.
If the other half of the Blood Guardian's soul did not say something like that, then the Blood Guardian might be planning to do something nasty right now.
However...since it was Lucifer, the absolute master of the Blood Guardian, who was the one who set it all up, then...the Blood Guardian would be more than happy to oblige.
That is why...the Blood Guardian did not pursue this matter anymore and just nodded his head.
"Is that so...anyway, I just have to use my instincts to take you into my consciousness, right?" The Blood Guardian asked the other half of his soul.
Of course, as soon as the other half of his soul heard that, he quickly responded.
"That's right." The other half of the Blood Guardian's soul said those words.
And now that everything is clear now, the Blood Guardian...closed his non-existent eyes.
He then started to let his instincts take over his consciousness...as he finally started the process to take in the other half of his soul.
He finally started the process...to become a better version of himself.
'My master's life...I would definitely not let the situation get worse...' The Blood Guardian thought to himself.
