Chapter 817 The Benefits Of Having Your Soul Tortured
-----
"I can train my soul to grow stronger inside a dream?!" I asked in shock, a second after, the System greeted me with new notifications.
[You soul has gone through large quantities of pain and damage and has been restructured and healed afterwards]
[Your soul grows stronger and sturdier…]
[You gained +3205 Divine Power]
"Hold on a second! I even gained divine power out of tearing apart my soul?!" I asked.
"Heh, this is not something normal you can do anywhere else, not even in other dreams. What I did to you, aside from having my revenge, is named Dream Soul Treatment. It is a special technique that is brutal to the soul, but when it is recovered and healed, the soul grows stronger. The more you put your soul into agony, the stronger it grows and the greater your will becomes as well… I used this technique daily to grow as strong as a Venerable, having an upper hand over all other Gods at my time."
"A-Amazing… Though it is so painful that I don\'t know if I am willing to do this." I sighed. "Wouldn\'t traumatizing myself with so much pain end up dulling my emotions?"
"Well? It all depends in your will. I am still with my emotions after all that time, at most you may get more mature but I doubt you\'ll suddenly grow a beard and begin saying everything is dark and meaningless… Haha!" Laughed the Venerable.
"…I seriously don\'t get that one, but sure, whatever." I sighed. "I\'ll take it every day… night."
"You\'ll wake up as fresh as a cucumber each morning!" She laughed.
"It is as fresh as a lettuce!" I sighed.
"Yeah, yeah, lettuces." Said the venerable, swinging her hand as my soul was sliced in half, she grabbed my soul with her jaws and started chewing it afterwards, and then, she poured acid over it, after that, she began using a tiny needle to leave billions of tiny holes on it. Afterwards, she brutally tore it apart, afterwards, she burned it…
Ah, agony, my old friend.

When I woke up the next morning, I indeed felt as fresh as a lettuce. And my body didn\'t had any pain, but my soul felt incredibly exhausted. How can I recover soul exhaustion? The venerable told me that the best method is eating souls. But she also has an endless spring of soul elixir in her Dream Realm, however, she refused to give me and said I had to endure the exhaustion for a whole month, as that would also build up "Soul Stamina" or something. There\'s apparently a whole complexity to souls, their strength, flexibility, durability, stamina, vitality, and energy capacity.
Also, the energy inside a soul is not just Divine Power, but also something called "Aether" or whatever. And it seems to be pretty important, she told she\'ll teach me how to use Aether eventually… I don\'t know when, the System might help, but perhaps very roughly, so I decided to rely on the Venerable. The bitch must be really enjoying tearing me apart constantly, doesn\'t she? Yeah, I bet!
…Well, its helping me and she gets some enjoyment out of it, it is a win-win situation here. I am not being stepped over at all, so please, my sub conscious, don\'t overthink it for now!
Anyways, aside from this ridiculous thing, there are other things happening right now, within the situation and issue over the egg… well, we have planned to give it blood and divine materials from dragons and giant gods, starting with me, the only god here for now. Maybe I could ask for the blood of Benladann and Benladra in the future… maybe their scales as well. No, Benladra better not give anything, I won\'t give that bitch a thing from my cute daughter! And well about Benladann… yeah, not her either, I won\'t give her anything from my cute wife!
I will simply just collect stuff on the go. I\'ve heard that there are ancient corpses of titans still in this world, somewhere else, I could find them and collect them to give them to her egg or something. But for now, I will feed the egg with one thousand of my scales a day, alongside a hundred liters from my blood… yeah, as a god, my super regeneration is insanely fast, so doing this is no a problem, I have to merely begin doing it right now though.
I flew outside of the castle as Fuyu peeked over what I was doing in the backyard, quickly realizing the horror of me generating and discarding hundreds of scales into a pile, all while draining out my blood through Blood Magic spells such as [Blood Drain] and [Blood Manipulation] into a small pink egg sitting over the grass.
The egg was able to absorb things incredibly quickly, merely throwing the items at it would make them disappear, being quickly devoured by the thingy. Holding it didn\'t absorbed me entirely though, so it is probably not capable of absorbing living beings and only "materials" or something. nonetheless, when I finished the daily quota, the egg began to glow a bit brighter, and turned slightly more colorful.
Huh, aside from me, there\'s no dragon of dreams, so maybe this one dragon could be the first ever dragon of dreams to have ever lived? Well, there are wild draconic monsters that live in dreams, there\'s a whole fauna list of monsters that live inside dream realms and dream worlds, some of them in the shape of dragons, but that aren\'t really true dragons.
Anyways this is not important at all for now, so I simply decided to ignore it. Having fed the dream egg, I saved it inside of my Inventory and quickly flew back home again, without explaining anything to anybody… it is better so I don\'t go through more trouble than I\'ve already gone through, haha… However, even now, I can hear Fuyu wondering what the heck I\'ve done to my body this morning, but she never dared to actually ask me because she felt afraid of my insanity.
I am sorry, Fuyu, I\'ll make up for it one day…
