Chapter 568
568 The Soul Domain King
The chair became covered by a green glowing substance. It moved as if alive, yet the Soul Domain didn’t sake like before.
The Soul Domain gave the impression of stabilizing the Soul Domain Visit, slightly changing the environment without too much resistance.
The substance began to shape into what appeared to be a large comfortable chair. A few moments later, the substance completely hardened, and a large chair resembling a throne was in front of them.
[Is this a throne?] Questioned Kazumi delightfully.
Kazumi’s bed was upgraded, and it looked far more comfortable than the chair. Additionally, the seat was wide enough for Wolfie, Freerie, and Kazumi to sleep together.
“If feels like I have become the prince of my Soul Domain.” Guessed Vincent while rubbing his chin.
Kazumi swiftly went to sit on the makeshift throne. Her eyes curved happily while saying [Now this is what it feels like to buy high-quality furniture. It feels comfortable, and I can feel my mana slightly recover faster.]
“Kazumi. Can you cancel the Soul Invite? I want to try using one of the ten daily charges and see how easy or difficult it is to use Soul Domain Visit skill.”
[Okay. I am also interested to know what will happen, hehe.]
.....
Vincent soon found himself back in the real world. With a grin on his face, he tried to activate the skill with his thoughts.
.
[Soul Domain Visit has been activated. 9 more uses remaining.]
.
Vincent experienced the same effects as Kazumi’s Soul Invite. The time slowed from his perception increase. The darkness surrounded his view until it became pitch black.
Vincent felt a strange feeling of comfort around his back and bottom. The darkness instantly lifted from his sight, and he could see Kazumi floating in front of him.
“Huh?” Vincent noticed the view was similar to when he was on top of the hill. He felt Wolfie rub its head on his leg, similar to when he sat on the chair.
“What!? Why am I sitting on the throne?” Said Vincent after becoming surprised. Like a spawn point, Vincent entered his Soul Domain, sitting on the throne.
[Humph! Your body emerged from the throne. Wolfie and I were kicked out because of you. And here I thought you would come here and see queen Kazumi...]
Vincent chuckled after hearing Kazumi brooding for not surprising him. He patted his lap and offered Kazumi a seat.
[Well, if you insist.] Kazumi accepted and sat on Vincent’s lap. She felt like a queen sitting on her king.
Vincent caressed Kazumi. “Now I can visit my curvy girl whenever she wants.” He looked at Wolfie and Freerie while continuing, “I will be able to visit you guys more often too.”
[Vincent. You have two hundred and forty Soul Power remaining. Are you interested in going all out?]
“Okay.” Vincent decided to give it a shot. He was too excited to care about saving his Soul Power in case of an emergency.
.
[Notice]
[The user’s desire to upgrade [Soul Domain Visit] has been detected.]
[Will you spend 200sp to start the upgrade process?]
[Accept -200sp] [Decline]
.
Vincent paused for a moment because the price increased exponentially. Previously, it was one day’s worth of Soul Power, but now it became ten days’ worth of Soul Power per upgrade.
*Sigh* Vincent had no choice but to say, “Accept. ” He was too curious to discover what kind of upgrade would require ten times the amount of Soul Power.
.
[Notice]
[-200sp has been used. 40sp remaining.]
[Soul Hero Skill – Soul Domain Visit changed to Soul Domain King.]
[Soul Domain King description. ]

[5 visit uses will be consumed to change into invites when used on a being with a soul.]
[2 visit uses will be consumed to change into invites when used on a [Blessed Retainer]
[Visits available 9/10]
.
A glowing substance emerged from the seat once again. It pushed Vincent off his seat, and the throne’s shape started to change.
[Look, Vincent! I think it is going to become an actual throne from its shape. Not only is it becoming wider to fit one and a half people, but the two armrests look great.]
Vincent became happy to pay the two hundred Soul Power as he could invite anyone in his Soul Domain. The investment not only gave him a beneficial upgrade, but a throne to sit on as the owner of his soul.
The substance hardened, and the throne stopped glowing. The emerald throne in front of them looked magnificent. It was like a sculpture of a throne made by the best carver that ever lived.
Vincent and Kazumi sat on the throne together as there was enough space for the two to sit. Wolfie excitedly jumped to rest on Vincent’s lap while Freerie rested on the two armrests.
[So this is what it feels like to be a queen. I like this new kind of lifestyle, hehe.]
“Yeah. Sitting on this throne is making me regret knowing I can only be here for ten minutes or one hundred minutes if I use all ten visits consecutively.”
*Woof* *Bzzz*
[Haha. The kids are also enjoying the throne from their joyful sounds.]
Vincent opened up the skill upgrade window. He wanted to find out what kind of add-ons he could add to the skill. However, what he saw next gave him emotional damage. The price was too high, and he needed to save for months or even years.
.
[Notice]

[Add-ons currently available.]

.
[Ahem. Now those are some pricy upgrades...] Kazumi said, yet she also felt discouraged after seeing the prices.
For a person like Vincent, who might need to use Soul Power at any moment, hoarding a lot of Soul Power was an impossible feat. Vincent will need to become a hermit if he wants to learn all the add-ons.
“Why do I feel scammed most of the time?” *Sigh* “At least Kazumi, Wolfie, and Freerie have a comfortable place to rest on.”
*Woof* *Bzzz*
“Hahaha.” Vincent laughed when Wolfie and Freerie cuddled with Vincent.
[I wonder what Jun Ye Rim would say if we show her the throne? Would she call you the soul king or something like that?]
“Well, I am the Soul Hero, after all. A soul throne is befitting for me, hehe.”
.....
[Yeah, sure. Are you going to claim to be the main character as well?]
“Can’t I wish?”
[Sure, sure. It is always nice to dream.]
Vincent and Kazumi joked until the time ended. Vincent’s soul watch beeped, and his surroundings started to fade. Vincent quickly gave Kazumi a head pat before his view became completely dark.
Vincent opened his eyes. The time of day was barely the same because not even a minute had passed.
Vincent got up and stretched his body. Even though his body didn’t have enough time to enjoy one minute of rest under the tree, Vincent felt as if twenty minutes or more had passed.
Even though the prices for the add-ons were demoralizing, Vincent was feeling his adrenaline pumping from the excitement of gaining the ability to slow time ten times a day.
“Wait! If it takes to charges per retainer visit, doesn’t it mean I can invite Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith to my Soul Domain?”
[Briliant idea, but what about the poor little Plow?]
Vincent paused for a moment. He scratched his cheek and asked, “Could my cute curvy girl bring Plow with her mana?”
[I will do as you requested, but only because you know how round and cute I am.] Kazumi liked being flirted with. She liked to be praised for having a curvy ball-like wisp body.
After solving the matter with the invitations, Vincent went near the mansion and trained. The sky became dark, and the time to eat with the girls was upon him.
However, Jun Ye Rim didn’t make an appearance that evening. It appeared she was going to take a longer time to confirm what kind of future she wanted to have.
After eating with his wives and Plow, Vincent told them about his new skill. The five of them became interested after being told they could visit his Soul Domain together.
Vincent used Soul Domain King for his wives, while Kazumi used Soul Invite for Plow.
Momentarily, Ester, Lupa, Iris, Lilith, and Plow became amazed to see Vincent sitting on a throne.
The ball of green light Kazumi sitting on Vincent’s lap. The small emerald wolf Wolfie is sitting beside the throne, and the sixteen butterflies Freerie randomly resting on the throne edges.
‘Vincent looks like a king.’ was the first thought Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith thought.
‘It looks so nice. I want to sit on Vincent Vincent now.’ Was on Plow’s mind.
