Soul Weapon

A **Soul Weapon** is the manifestation of a human's latent abilities, every Soul Weapon varies from person to person. No two Soul Weapons are ever the same. Several humans may possess the same ability, but under no circumstances will they have the same Soul Weapon, each person will have a unique trait ingrained to their corresponding Soul Weapon.

## Description

### Chapter 557

The soul weapon is formed inside a human's body from a young age. It is altered based on their emotions and the experiences they go through in life. Then when they get their first ability, it takes shape and forms itself. There are two types of soul weapons, the Enhancement type and the Item type.

### Enhancement Type

The enhancement type can give their ability a special trait. Something unique that the others can't use. Some enhancement types can improve the elemental ability control or strength, or apply the ability in a new method.

### Item Type

The item type on the other hand, can be in the form of anything. Someone's item can come out in the shape of a weapon or a tool. One seen example of this was Nate's unique coin. Item type soul weapons are a little more difficult to grasp. Their uses aren't as apparent at first. However, Item type Soul Weapons have an aspect of their user's ability infused into it.

## Awakening

The soul weapon is like a second will inside a human, a sort of second mind. It grows next to their heart. What they need to do is picture it, and see what it is, call out to it and order it, but not from their head, and instead from their chest. The first way to visualize it is to try to communicate with their second will. They will have to turn off their mind, and try to control it from their chest. Once they have this concept down, then they can move onto the next step.

The second way is by controlling the MC cells in their body. When a human controls their MC cells, they do so with the feeling in their body which is linked to their minds. Once they have opened the communication in their chest area or the soul as it is referred to, they will then need to control their MC cells using their soul rather than their mind.

However, there are chances where an incomplete Soul Weapon may be forced out of an ability user's body, once this happens, it will be irreparable and will stay in that form forever.

### Chapter 558

A practice of separating the mind from the chest.

When communicating with your second will, just don't chase it. If you chase it and start thinking about it too much, then it will go away. Also, the soul weapon takes time to develop. The more you start to look into it, but not chase it, the more it will take shape, and the easier it will be to use it. Until you no longer have to think about it anymore.

The military has some items that can be used to help us visualize the communication easier. There was the machinery that would allow one to separate their mind, making it easier, but no other traveller factions possessed such a thing. Since before the civil war, it was something everyone had used during their two years service in the Military.

Vampires are said to have no soul for centuries. They are too evil for something like that, so no soul weapon. It is said one would fully develop their soul weapon and mind for it at the age of sixteen. Then any human who was turned into a vampire or subclass after this age should be able to produce one, and this included Arthur.

### Chapter 592

The soul appears as a coloured flame.

You should be able to clearly see what is in your soul from there. Then all you need to do is bring yourself into the picture with the soul. Finally, it will show you the image of what your soul weapon is or will be. An **enhancement** type or an **item** type.

The soul weapon was something that formed in oneself from a young age, and once reaching seventeen, it would be solidified. The shape and what it could do would all be influenced by one's nature and their ability.

### Chapter 593

The **enhancement type** is easier to use than an **item type** upon initially manifesting it and is generally the more common of the two types. The enhancement type soul weapon is basic, and it's up to the user's creativety to use it.

### Chapter 602

Usually, one's MC points would be used greatly when using a soul weapon, so it was important to decide when the right time was to use it. Using it at the beginning wasn't always the best choice. It would be like a boxer swinging wild punches at the start of the match. If they all missed, the person would be gassed out, too tired to continue and at their most vulnerable point. That's why most users would fight at a steady pace, therefore, when their winning chance or the opponent was weak is when they would use their soul weapon.

## Information

The military has some items that can be used to help us visualize the communication easier, but we don't have that here. According to the military, the mind and soul are fully developed once one passes the age 16. Which is why they can't teach you such a thing until then.

### Military School

There was one big difference between the second years and first years in military school and that was something called Awakening. The second years had learnt how to awaken their ability. This allowed the user regardless of the power level to get a power boost for a short period of time. Some rare first years are lucky to Awaken too (with teacher's guidance).

Once a user had Awakened, they then also could form something called their Soul Weapon. It is a powerful weapon unique to each user that was formed in the body itself. This was different from a beast weapon as a beast weapon could be used by anyone.

Soul weapons seemed to increase one's power significantly. It is said that when one is born, the soul weapon already starts to form based on their traits and personality. Eventually, it will get slightly altered when learning their first ability and will continue to grow from there. Finally, when they are ready, they would be able to manifest one.

### Soul Weapon Image Machine

The machine is a training equipment, with a inexpensive blueprint that allow forgers to make it. The machine is a common in training spaces of factions or military schools.

The machine was an expandable chair, one you would use like when you went to the dentist. Above the chair, there was a strange-looking helmet that would be placed on your head. Once one was seated, a few straps would come out from under the chair and tie the person in. When it was activated, a few magnetic pulses could be felt on one's back. The pulses would synchronize with the heartbeat, going in and out. Soon one;s mind was shut off and could see within one's chest. It projects a clear white room, and in front of oneself, a strange colour looking flame, the soul.

The machine puts your mind in a sleep-like state and allows you to see just what is in your chest. You should be able to see the image projected from contacting your soul. In the machine, you will be able to do it easily, but you need to remember the feeling you experience. Even if you can connect with your soul weapon in the machine, it doesn't mean you can when you are out. Everyone is different. Some people can do it straight away after making a connection, some still take a few months.

After seeing the image of the soul weapon from the soul, the image would be deeply fresh in one's memory and shortening the process for the initial summoning of the soul weapon.

The machine's project soul would be yellow for humans and red blood crystal for vampires. Quinn and Arthur are unique ones for possessing three souls (yellow, red and shadow's purple)
