STB: Chapter 29

Now that Yukina belongs to Alex 'partially' since she accepted to be his blood servant, but hasn't turned into one yet.

"Now that's done I'm curious about something" Alex said as both Yukina and Sayaka looked in his direction as Alex opened the weapon of Sayaka.

"Something wrong Alex?" Sayaka said.

"Not really, just want to ask something about Kojou" Alex said as he looked at Yukina which Sayaka managed to figure out what Alex was talking about.

"Oh! I'm curious about that Yukina-chan, what's your relationship with Kojou?" Sayaka asked as Yukina looked at her as if she was an idiot.

"Relationship? Well, outside of work I guess you could call us friends? Though I can confidently say that Nagisa is my friend" Yukina said causing Alex to shake his head while smiling.

"We'll let me tell you something, the moment the Lion King organization sent you to be his observer, you were supposed to be their honey trap and bind Kojou to your organization with you, as a 2nd generation vampire he is quite powerful, plus he's the descendant of the previous 4th progenitor, that tells how powerful he is" Alex said with a grin, as Yukina looked at Sayaka who has a blush on her face.

"Sayaka-san... Don't tell me, you of all people..." She said causing Sayaka's eyes to widen as she waved her hands.

"No! You got it all wrong! I've also sent to be a honey trap for Alex but that didn't work... It's me who fell for him... Well, more like forced to be his" Sayaka mumbles the past part but Alex manages to pick up on it.

"Oh? Forced you say? Shall I tell a story about a horny woman who forced herself to a sleeping gentleman?" Alex said with a grin.

"Alex! Don't take him seriously Yukina, he's just joking" Sayaka said with a wry smile to Yukina who looked very confused.

"What he's talking about?" Yukina said as she looked at Sayaka who had a wry smile.

"Anyway, let's go back to what to do with the ego inside your weapons" Alex said.

"Do something with the ego? Is it safe?" Yukina said as she put her Schneewalzer on the table

"What do you mean Alex?" Sayaka asked as she also put her lustrous scale.

"Well it's not since the ego can explode if handled it wrongly, but I know what I'm doing" Alex said.

"Also I'm talking about if you want the ego to be removed and replaced by an artificial one that I can create, it will be much safer and stable"

"What do you suggest?" Yukina asked.

"Well it's better to replace it since we don't know if you use spirit possession, the ego inside the weapon will take control of you" Alex also revealed what he discovered and a fatal flaw that comes with using a spirit possession.

"Does that mean, if we use spirit possession there's a probability that the ego inside the weapon will take control?" Yukina said with a frown which is shared by Sayaka.

"Correct, that's why I suggest you use my artificial ego to be safe" Alex said with a smile.

"Your artificial ego won't take control right?" Sayaka asked.

"They still would, but only if you wanted to, also these egos will be loyal, similar to Vlad" Alex said causing Vlad to appear beside him.

"Ghost?!" Yukina yelled but Alex shook his head.

"Who's that?" Sayaka asked.

"You already forgot about me mistress" Vlad said as she manifested near Sayaka.

"Wait... You're a girl?! But what about that voice?!" Sayaka pointed at Vlad.

"Of course I'm a girl, I'm master's creation after all" Vlad said as she looked at Alex.

"..." Alex refused to make any statements.

"Anyways, you both agree to change the ego in your weapon with an artificial one right?" Alex said causing the both of them to nod at the same time.

As Alex was looking at the soul stone where the ego of the weapon of Sayaka, Alex slowly pushed his consciousness inside the soul stone.

As soon as Alex's consciousness arrived inside the soul stone, what greeted him was just a room full of white without blemish.

And in the middle of it is where the source of the divine energy, the energy it was emitting is incredible, but not to the point where it can rival Vlad from her post-awakening.

Alex doesn't know what to do next as it's too dangerous to proceed without safety measures, while his body is immortal he doesn't know if his consciousness is also immortal.

The core suddenly glowed brightly for a minute before it slowly faded revealing another little girl with dove wings tucked on her back staring at him emotionless.

Seeing this Alex got curious and approached it.

"Hello? You okay?" Alex waved his hands in front of her but the ego showed no reaction, seeing this Alex sent his life force towards the ego but still nothing happened.

Alex touched the ego's head as he did a basic reading like he did to the other ego he created where he can get basic information and the function it has, but what Alex found disappointed him.

"Nothing huh..." Alex said as he didn't know whether this ego was artificially made or a natural angel, he couldn't base it on his artificial ego as both use a different energy system Alex was also lacking data about angels.

While checking on the ego and what else can it do, Alex felt something wrong, his head ached for some reason and decided to exit the soul stone of the ego and hold his head in the real world.

"Ouch... I wonder what's that" Alex said as he thought about the possibility of the ego was just acting and can completely move, but it was impossible since he checked it himself, the only possible answer was the divine energy, it has the ability to hurt soul since there's nothing can harm him physically which causes Alex to frown.

Alex doesn't have any defense related to soul... Or does he, as Alex thought of a certain familiar causing him to smile.

As Alex was about to talk to Sayaka and Yukina about his findings he didn't see them in his lab, confused, Alex looked at the clock how long he was gone, and to his surprise, he was only gone for 1 hour, but have stayed inside the soul stone for 2 hours, it's a new discovery as he didn't know going inside the soul stone would have time dilation.

Alex closed his eyes as he spread his senses to the entire house as he located where he found the ladies including his mother in the living room.
