Suddenly, a diagram of ten stars lit up on Cersei.
This diagram was exactly like the constellation of still glowing in the sky.
Nine stars were on Cersei's body below the neck and were arranged in a formation of fruits hanging at the end of branches, giving the entire diagram a tree-like appearance.
The tenth star glowed blindingly yellow on her forehead.
As the tiny points of light appeared on Cersei's forehead, a yellow line slithered up on her body, joining the ten stars — The Path of the Ascending Flas!
This Structure represented Kai's Shikai's ultimate power — Qlipoth Genesis!
This Structure also represented Kai's Reality Marble's Essence — The Seal of Parselscript!
However, this Seal differed from the one claiming the Shadow Lord.
The Seal on Cersei wasn't on her existence. Moreover, this was nowhere near the ultimate technique of the Zanpakuto, Ayin.
Not to ntion, Kai's Reiatsu, which powered the technique, had long run out.
This Seal was for the shadows!
Bang!
The thick layer of shadows covering Cersei exploded, a mass of black liquefied air bursting out like water from a balloon.
It was then the yellow star on her forehead shone, and beca a black hole, attracting and engulfing all the shadows.
The diagram created by the ten stars had already vanished, becoming transparent, leaving behind that yellow point on Cersei's forehead.
Now, the shadows surrounded the sealing mark like a cocoon.
A black diamond, with a marquise shape, manifested on Cersei's forehead, and within it was a yellow stroke, enchanting the hearts of all onlookers.
All this hadn't taken even a mont to happen.
But, at this mont, the fate of Cersei, a magical existence, had changed forever.
...
From Kai using Telekinesis to catch Cersei, and then sealing the shadows inside her using the Parselscript, only a breath had passed by.
Cersei hadn't seen what Kai had done to her, but she had heard the words he had said to the Shadow Lord.
Gently, her eyes opened, and her green pupils shone black; the black of shadows and death.
By happenstance, as the blur in Cersei's eyes vanished, the first thing she saw was Kai's hooded, decaying face, and him sucking out Shadow Lord's happiest mories.
This scene etched itself in her heart; and if she had possessed a soul, this scene would have engraved itself on it as well.
If one were to see the skies of this holographic blood world now, one would find this scene utterly bewildering, mystifying, and shocking, to say the least.
There, in the sky, was a dark and foul being, its very aura deathly cold.
In his one arm was an old man, dying, trying to beg for forgiveness under the effects of raw despair and hopelessness.
In his other arm was a pale but stunningly beautiful young lady, eying this rotten being with a gaze burning with such a zeal that it surpassed a drowning man's desire for straw.
Alas! Instead of kissing her, this filthy being was leaning over the old man.
That was good as well, saving others from the repulsive sight of such a being kissing a young maiden.
...
Kai had never experienced such a feeling.
The mont he took a sip of the ad coming out of Shadow Lord, heartfelt drunkenness possessed him, making his sight blurry.
Kai had sucked out the soul of a common wizard in the Harry Potter Random World.
Because of the commotion caused by that single disappearance, he never attempted it again, postponing it to later, after becoming stronger and stealthier.
Yet that encounter had let Kai make a wild guess about a certain scenario.
A scenario of him sucking out Dumbledore's soul.
Kai had guessed that if he could do such a thing, then he would surely get at least 50-60 Soul Points out of the most powerful wizard, effortlessly.
It was this guess that had jolted Kai's heart when he had begun planning for this mont.
Pirate Lord Henry Morgan was a nigh Immortal Being, his magical might almost boundless. '
Not to ntion, his strength had already surpassed the 9th floor, infinitely nearing the 10th floor.
To top it all off, Shadow Lord was a storyline Character.
What Kai wanted was Shadow Lord's Soul, the horde of Soul Points, and Breath...
... Breath out of Set Quota!
Soul ad ran down Kai's throat as if he were drinking immortal wine, his entire existence swelling up.
Suddenly, this feeling of swelling beca so vast that Kai felt like he would explode.
Boom!
This explosion had not occurred outside, but within Kai, his decayed hands shuddering and his tattered cloak billowing as if a tempest had co.

Breath Snatcher upgraded to C- and Dentor's Kiss arrived at C Grade.
No change to the last Skill, still.
Things had just reached the peak, though.
Cersei gulped as she saw Kai sucking out Shadow Lord's soul, the very aning of beauty taking a strange psychological turn in her mind.
Behind her, Limitless Murasa and Supre Sounga kept swirling, thrumming, thriving within the evil aura of Dentor-Kai.
On the blood ocean, Red Sun had sat down, his eyes trembling at the stupefying sight he had been seeing for so ti.
Why did the mighty existence, Shadow Origin, never ntion the Five-Crowned Prince having Conqueror's Haki? Why didn't he ntion that Red was a resurrected descendant of the Emperor's bloodline?
Red Sun's guess had deviated little from that of the Contestant Nexus.
Only this was the most plausible explanation. What else?
Yet, the resolute look in Robin's gaze never vanished. He had already let sothing slip out of his mouth; a King's Code Na, forcing him into that hellhole.
No. He would question nothing anymore.
He had decided.
This was his ladder to the top.
This promised King was his ticket to the 18th floor.
On the other side, Moraine's half-opened eyes looked at the foul mist pressed upon Shadow Lord's face.
Her thoughts were all over the place.
Kai cared for nothing.
60... 75... 80... 92...
96... 98... 99...
99.4... 99.8...
99.9...
Just when the well containing Shadow Lord's soul had all but gone dry, Kai sucked out the very last drop with a resounding slurp.
BOOM!

Breath Snatcher advanced to C and Dentor's Kiss arrived at C .
Kai let go of the dead old man, raised his head toward the dark sky, and let out a rattling roar.
This was all he had hoped for.
These many Soul Points, these advancents, and these upgrades were all he had hoped to gain; his Greatest Inheritance.
Yet, sothing happened then that Kai had never imagined in his wildest dreams.
Not here, at least.
Not now.
His eyes landed on the notification and saw that it had yet to show in its entirety.
Then, like a bolt out of the blue, a new notification appeared in front of his pupils, and the entire world beca silent along with him, his gaze trembling at the sight.
