"Real Souls?!" Everyone exclaimed simultaneously while in disbelief.

"Exactly. Those souls that are now in your Soul Altars were given to you at birth. Those souls are not yours." Aurora waved her hand as if she were stating the obvious.

For a while, everyone was shocked, they pondered Aurora\'s words in silence as perhaps it was the most important thing they had heard in their entire lives. To humans, souls were equal to life, maybe even more important than it, so learning that their souls were fake was a real shock.

\'Since birth? Hmm... that\'s definitely not my option... I only got a soul when my world came to an end... The same thing happened in Gisle\'s world. The apocalypse was the catalyst for people to get souls, but before that, their lives were ordinary... Damn... This is some nonsense.\' Wain muttered inwardly as he tried to make sense of what was going on here.

"But... Is that possible? There are other people\'s souls in our Soul Altars... It\'s too strange." Alas muttered with a confused look.

"They are not alien souls, but they are not yours either." Aurora uttered.

"Hmm?" Ern tilted his head in a strange way, "Are you sure the berries that you ate are completely safe? I think you\'re delusional. Even if the souls aren\'t ours, they\'re obviously someone else\'s!"

"Whose?" Aurora asked, "If they aren\'t your souls, who did they belong to? Why did you receive them? As infants, could you have stolen them? Answer!"

Ern fell silent, he even stopped eating meat as he realized that none of Aurora\'s questions had an answer.

"Your souls are a random accumulation of Soul Essence that floats between zones and spaces. It\'s normal, there\'s nothing wrong with that, even the greatest warriors first had a Fake Soul, only later did they reveal their True Soul." Aurora uttered.

"Actually, you shouldn\'t be surprised because it all makes sense. Think about it, what have you been accumulating huge amounts of energy for all this time? Every time you evolved, you had to use a lot of souls before, for what?" Aurora shook her hand.

"In order to become stronger." Ern spread his arms apart as he shrugged, "Isn\'t it obvious?"

"Huh, sounds like you\'re really dumb. Everyone wants to get stronger, but do you think you can get a True Soul at the snap of a finger? Your soul is you yourself, to become an adult, you need to eat, sleep and drink well, the same goes for your soul. All this time, you have been absorbing energy not only to become strong but to finally find your soul, not just a blob of energy that occupies the main place in your Soul Altar." Aurora said with a slight smile on her face as she liked to show how much more she knew than they did.

"Damn... That actually changes everything... Why didn\'t I figure this out until now?" Erza muttered while in disbelief.

"It\'s amazing." Alas nodded, "So... When we\'re in the Fourth Chronicle, will we have to reveal our True Souls?"

"Yeah. Once you do, you will receive your most powerful weapon, The Form. It is the personification of you and your soul. You will expend a lot of energy while using The Form, but you will gain incredible power. Anyway, just watch." Aurora slowly stood up as her aura intensified and her hair rose up.

Purple lightning ripples appeared next to her with several energy spheres that swirled rapidly around her. Then, the energy completely covered her like a veil, and her appearance began to change.

Aurora wore dark armor that looked beautiful but majestic, her black hair turned purple just like her eyes. Every movement she made, even a wave of her hand, made the air ripple with lightning sparks.

"Just because you are Wain\'s friends, I will expend some energy and show what a person in the Fifth Chronicle can do while using the Form." Aurora muttered as she carelessly pointed her finger at the sky\'s massive cloud.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

Her eyes sparkled, and a small orb appeared on the tip of her finger. It looked harmless, but it contained enormous power. The powerful energy made the restaurant shake as the floor beneath Aurora cracked.

"Here we go." Aurora smiled as the sphere turned into a beam.

The beam was thin, no thicker than a finger, but when it reached the cloud, it exploded with a massive stream of energy.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The earth trembled as the shockwave spread for miles around that blew away all the clouds, and the sky became clearer than ever before.

All the inhabitants were frightened, but they could not take their eyes off the beautiful amethyst sky from which the purple particles were slowly falling like snowflakes.

Whoooooosh.

Four silhouettes appeared next to the restaurant that emitted powerful, majestic auras. They approached Aurora, got down on one knee, and said, "Madam, it was you. We thought Arkans were attacking us."

"Huh, it\'s okay. I was just showing the kids what real power is. You\'re free to go." Aurora waved her hand as she canceled her uniform.

The silhouettes nodded and disappeared.

"Who were those...?" Ern asked, "Their auras aren\'t as strong as yours, but I\'m sure there\'s no way I could have handled any of them."

"Well, they are the guardians of this city. There are others, but they report to other Elders." Aurora shrugged in a careless manner and sat down at the table.

"Your power is incredible. I hope to reach the same level someday." Alas muttered while looking up at the magical sky.

"Of course, you will become even stronger than she is!" The Royal Spirit exclaimed.

"Wain, what do you say? Do you want to have the same power?" Aurora smirked, "You are the King\'s heir, so in the future, you will even surpass me!"

Aurora waited for an answer, but Wain was silent.

"Hey! Can you hear me?"

Wain did not see Aurora\'s attack, when he saw her transformation, all his attention was focused only on what the Form was and what his True Soul was, and whether there was one at all.

\'Form... I\'ve already seen it on Alice and at the battle of Osvald... But why do I already have six of them...? Why is this happening?\'
