Chloe furrowed her brow. "The Soul-Binding Chain."
Chloe's right hand reached forward, her fingertips about to touch the chain. Suddenly, the chain emitted a wave of energy, pushing Chloe's body back.
Her hand trembled. "Tch! This chain refuses to be touched, probably because of the effect of Enatur's dying spiritual soul. Zures must know something about this chain."
Her eyes scanned the surrounding area. "Where is Dark Enatur hiding? I'm really curious about him."
Chloe flew around the entire area. As she circled, her eyes fell on an oval-shaped crystal, protected by a protective space, the Body Essence Core.
The protective space was covered in a purplish black aura. Both were surrounded by a thick black aura. The black aura continued to collide with the purplish black aura, as if trying to penetrate it.
"So that's how it is, the protective space must be Yunia's creation. The purplish black aura must be Uncle Marrec's spiritual trace, the Van Dammon family's signature energy aura. The thick black aura must be the Soul Core's curse."
She continued to fly around every corner of the Spiritual Realm Enatur, searching for Dark Enatur, her eyes looking left and right, every inch, every small detail.
After circling for quite a while, Chloe shook her head. "Most likely, Dark Enatur appears in certain situations... I'd better just go back. Continuing is pointless."
She slowly turned her body, and gradually her body turned into crystal shards and disappeared.

In the backyard...
Chloe opened her eyes and exhaled deeply. Enatur's body, still in meditation, emitted a greenish light, sometimes dim, sometimes bright.
Yunia stepped closer to her. "How is it, Chloe?" she asked curiously.
"The pill's effects are working. Inside, the situation was more complicated than I thought, but there is still hope," she said.
Yunia's eyes fluttered, her eyebrows raised.
"Don't worry, I've checked the condition of his spiritual soul. For now, let's focus on restoring his spiritual soul."
"Then what's the next step?"
Chloe furrowed her eyebrows. "The green pill he just swallowed will take about a week to four weeks to repair his spiritual soul. I'll check on his condition once a week."
A golden pill with red patterns floated above Chloe's palm. "The Spiritual Soul Recovery Pill, which he must take after his spiritual soul has been repaired."
Her shoulders slumped, Yunia was very relieved to hear that. "Thank you, Chloe! Once he's better, we'll think of a way to revive Master."
Her eyes gazed at the clear sky. "I miss him too, he's like a father to me," continued Yunia.
Chloe's hands formed a cross. "I refuse to let you become part of the Van Dammon family," said Chloe.
"Hohoho... but the fact is, I was raised by him," said Yunia.
Shadow gasped, detecting a dangerous signal. He ran into the mansion to seek help.
Chloe's finger touched her lips. "Fufu... I was also raised by him, I was always by Uncle's side!"
Yunia and Chloe's eyes flashed lightning, clashing with each other. They fought like little children behind a cloud of dust.
"That's why I hate flat-chested granny like you, Chloe!"
"Hoho... my breasts are big and sexy enough right now."
"Thanks to whom did you get your sexy body, HUH?"
"Thanks to whom was save your son, HUH?"
Sunlight illuminated their quarrel...
Meanwhile...

Trillions of years from Yunia's Realm. A Realm where gods who have reached The Divine cultivation level gather. Forming a gathering of The Divine elites, namely the Divine Realm.
A palace stands towering on a high hill, surrounded by giant trees with golden red leaves. Giving off an autumn vibe, the Vermillion Empire.
Avorius, dressed as a noble, walked towards the palace entrance, surrounded by a beautiful garden with golden grass, red flowers, and autumn trees.
A servant approached him. "Prince, His Highness the Emperor is waiting for you."
Avorius bowed his head. "Has he finished talking with my father?"
"Lord Zadkhiel is still talking with His Highness the Emperor."
The Vermillion Palace was made of ruby walls and gold carvings. Tall statues of knights adorned the palace corridors.
Avorius arrived at the emperor's throne room, but it was covered by curtains. Hiding his identity. He stood with one knee touching the ground, giving a respectful greeting. Next to him was Zadkhiel, who also gave a respectful greeting.
Zadkhiel, the Fallen Angel. He had shoulder-length blond hair and blue eyes. He was dressed in all black with gray armor.
A man's voice was heard from behind the curtain.
"Hm, I see. It's a pity that the Heart of Secrophia was stolen, but it doesn't matter. The information about Yunia is enough for me, especially the information about her son."
"That is all the information I can provide, Your Highness. Regarding the Van Dammon family, I have managed to restrict their movements," said Zadkhiel.
"Leave the Van Dammon problem to us. As long as you bow to us, I will provide protection for you. Then, Van Dammon will not dare to bother you," said the Emperor.
"Thank you for your protection, Your Highness," said Zadkhiel.
"Avorius!" said the emperor.
"Yes, father?"
"How did your fight with Yunia's son go?"
"Fine, father. The boy is quite promising. He doesn't just rely on strength, but also tactical ability. Basically, the boy gave me a hard time."
Zadkhiel's eyebrows moved.
Behind the curtain, the emperor stroked his beard. "I'm curious about that boy."
"Does Father have any plans for Sis Yunia?" Avorius asked.
The emperor leaned forward, his voice low but full of pressure. "I plan to take her back to the Divine Realm with her son. I want to confirm how pure their Vermillion blood is."
The emperor furrowed his brow. "If the color of her eyebrows is the same as her hair, it means her blood is very pure," said the emperor.
The empress's hands clenched until they trembled. "If the Lord of Divine finds out about this, then Yunia or her son will take our place. This cannot be allowed."
His fingers tapped the armrest of his chair. "You're right, we must get rid of them immediately! I will send some people to deal with them."
Avorius furrowed his brow.
"At that time, I saw it clearly, the color of her hair and eyebrows were exactly the same. Both Yunia and her son."
A young man overheard their conversation through the open door. His maroon eyebrows furrowed, his hands clenched until they trembled.

Zadkhiel walked down the palace corridor. His face was gloomy and angry.
"It would be disastrous if Goddess Yunia took over the Vermillion imperial throne. I would lose my powerful divine connection with them."
"Even though I worked so hard to persuade them by selling them information about Goddess Yunia. I can't let that happen!"
The corners of his lips curved sharply, his eyes shining.
"Zadkhiel!" Avorius' voice sounded behind him.
Zadkhiel bowed respectfully to Avorius. "Is there anything I can do for you, Prince Avorius?"
They talked as they walked. His eyes turned to Zadkhiel. "Is it true that you made God Marrec into a soul core?"
Zadkhiel bowed his head. "That's right, Prince Avorius? What's the matter?"
Avorius' eyes glowed bright red. "Did you also put the soul core into Her son's body?"
Zadkhiel's face paled, his eyes trembled, and his pupils shrank. "I-I really didn't do it, I just found out about this, Prince Avorius."
Avorius sighed. "I see... just do your job as usual." Avorius patted Zadkhiel on the shoulder.
Avorius left Zadkhiel in confusion, his eyes staring at Avorius as he continued walking.
"So that's how it is. The old man's Soul Core is now inside the body of Goddess Yunia's son. Maybe I can take advantage of this moment..."
Zadkhiel channeled his spiritual energy, a spiritual dimensional rift opened, and he stepped into the portal.

The full moon shone down on the night in the mortal realm, the Dark Fraction Realm.
A camp where orc monsters gathered. A girl jumped high, her silhouette facing away from the moonlight. But her red eyes glowed, forming a blur of light.
Her white hair reflected the moonlight, and she wore a purple tank top and a short wide skirt.
She glides towards the crowd of orc monsters, the shadow of her sword slashing through the monsters' chests. All of them are slaughtered.
Her hand enters the monsters' chests and pulls out their hearts. She chews the hearts raw, without feeling full.
Her hand takes a wet tissues from her skirt pocket and wipes her mouth. The moonlight began to shine on her face. The girl was Elena.
Elena opened the status screen, her eyes blinking. "Hm, only 200 hearts left out of 500 to unlock the one-star Curse level."
The portal space opened, and Blard stepped out of the portal.
"Good job, Elena." His voice was soft.
Elena smiled faintly. "Papa, it seems."
"Of course, I have to make sure my daughter is okay." Blard stroked her head.
Elena sighed. "Dad, you don't need to worry, no one dares to bother me."
Blard smiled. "All right. But why are you suddenly so motivated?"
She sheathed her twin swords behind her waist. "Of course, so I won't lose to that damn bloody hair!"
Blard looked at Elena.
"The relationship between Elena and Enatur is still a big mystery to me. But, since then Elena has become more motivated."
"All right, then Papa will accompany you on the hunt. It's already nighttime, I can't let my daughter be alone in the dark."
"You're so protective of me, Papa!"
Elena immediately dashed off, Blard following behind her. They headed for the next monster's lair. She continued hunting monsters to reach 500 hearts.
Wolves howled in the distance, accompanying Elena's hunt...

Nighttime on Earth-07, human civilization type-3, where Enatur lived.
Rein and Yunia were in the backyard. It was just the two of them, no one was eavesdropping on them.
Yunia's gaze was sharp, full of intimidation. "Now, what's your next plan?"
Rein was still able to remain calm.
