Arthur de Regalia?

-Door knocked -

Nova called out, 'Who is it?'

Vespida's voice replied, 'Your Majesty, it's me, Vespida.'

Nova, engaged in an important meeting, inquired, 'What is it?'

Vespida responded, 'We found all the spies in other regions, Your Majesty.'

Nova ordered, 'Come in.'

Curious, Nova asked, 'How many are there?'

Vespida reported, 'One in every region, five in the borders, and some near the castle, totaling 30, Your Majesty.'

Nova decided, 'Imprison everyone in the forest except one to get the information. Bring the one who looks like the leader here.'

Cynthia speculated, 'They must be spies under the order of the Light Realm's Avatar.'

Nova questioned, 'Can you hold off two avatars by yourself?'

Cynthia admitted, 'It's impossible to hold off one, let alone two. I have entered into the Avatar realm recently, while they have been in that realm for eon.'

Concerned, Nova asked, 'What will you do if they attack us directly?'

Cynthia explained, 'I have the means to hold them off. There is a gate to enter the plane, but it will not allow one to get out from this plane.

If anyone enter through the gate, they will be stuck here without an escape. That's how the Thranaties came inside. There is a higher order from my birthplace, the Forbidden Realm. 

I am merely a squad captain; Alaric is the surviving soldier under my unit.

after the holy war, he deserted the force after surviving.

I still know how to contact outside the plane when the time comes. I will request assistance.'

Curious about the nature of avatars, Nova asked, 'Isn't the Avatar the highest one can achieve? Aren't they immortal?'

Cynthia revealed, 'This plane is newly created one. The universal planes experience energy fluctuations once every five eons. When the fluctuations from the primordial chaos occur, the current realm avatars will fall into transcendence, and the same goes for others.

Their powers don't decrease, but the limits to the realms expand and increase further. The Forbidden Realm is one of the oldest universal planes to ever exist. 

The beings in the realm hold power beyond your imagination. If they were not sealed, they could wipe out a plane without using thier 'Awakening'.'

Puzzled, Nova inquired, 'Then the avatars' greatest fear is?'

Cynthia replied, 'The outside planes are older than this one, so they will subdue the avatars and bring this plane to its knees.'

Nova questioned, 'Once we open the outer plane, what will happen to Star Haven, Earth-666, Earth-2, and other planets under your rule? Won't they get wiped out by the outsiders?'

Cynthia assured, 'Don't worry. After we escape from this plane, we will seal this plane again using the same method, and we will create a few keys to open the gate.'

Nova, still unsure, asked, 'Are you sure this could work? Why not just stay in this plane?'

Cynthia challenged, 'Are you sure? Do you not want to know what you are? And explore the infinite possibilities in outer planes?'

As Nova grappled with these thoughts, a voice in his head urged, 'We need to go into the outer planes.'

Nova, frustrated, snapped whispered at the voice, 'Will you just Shut up.'

Meanwhile, Vespida brought in the leader of the spies. Nova handed over the spy to Cynthia, and the others left, returning to their respective planets.

Inside Nova's room -

Nova had been hearing the persistent voice inside his head since waking up from his slumber. Unable to keep the revelation to himself any longer, he called Freya and Ignis to meet him in his room, where no one could eavesdrop or enter without their permission.

Inquisitive, Freya asked, 'Father, why did you call us here?'

Nova began to explain, 

 'I've hidden a fact about myself – this body is not entirely mine.'

He detailed what Cynthia had revealed about the original body.

'When I fell into the sleep, the essence of the planet healed both me and the owner of the body. It gave rebirth to the original owner too, and now he is inhabiting the same body along with me. And he does not shut up.'

Perplexed, Freya inquired, 'This is the first time I've come across such a situation. We don't know how to separate consciousness from the body.'

Nova responded, 'I read all the scrolls and books in Alaric's bookstore when I visited Earth-666. There, I found the solution to this problem.'

Curious, Ignis asked, 'What is the solution, Father?'

Nova revealed, 'I requested the help of Hamrick. He should be on his way here. I will explain everything after he arrives.'

The room held a sense of anticipation as they awaited Hamrick's arrival to unravel the mysteries surrounding Nova's shared consciousness and the solution he had discovered in the scrolls of Earth-666.

After one hour -

Hamrick entered Nova's personal room, asking, 'How can I help you, Majesty?'

Nova, holding a scroll, inquired, 'How did you imbue an ego inside the sword?'

Hamrick explained, 'I attune a rune inside the sword to hold the consciousness of the departed soul, binding it to the sword.'

Nova handed him the scroll, saying, 'In this scroll, there is a method to separate the soul and imbue it into spiritual items. Take a look.'

As Hamrick read through the revelations in the scroll, he was shocked. 'This might work, but if we do this, the body occupied by the soul will cease to function.'

Concerned, Nova questioned, 'What about two consciousnesses in a single body?'

 He proceeded to explain his situation.

Hamrick contemplated, 'It might work, but we need the blood that belongs to the other consciousness. Where do you plan to put the soul?'

Nova suggested, 'The armor you crafted, it's a spiritual armor without an ego. Imbue the soul into that armor.'

Hamrick agreed and inquired, 'Where can you get the blood of the other soul?'

Nova responded, 'This body belongs to him, so the blood should be his. only the energy inside it is mine, so the blood should work.'

Inside Nova's head, a conversation ensued between him and Arthur von Regal (The Original Body's Name)-

Arthur von Regal: Are you sure this method will work?

Nova: We both agreed on this after finding the scroll. I don't have a soul; If I eject myself, you will die without my energy to sustain the vessel along with it the whole planet, but if I put you inside the armor as an ego, you can live until I find you a suitable vessel.

Arthur de Regalia: You promised that you will visit my home.

Nova: I know. After we open the outer plane, the first thing will be doing is to visit your plane, alright?

Arthur de Regalia: You need to get strong, the physical strength of yours is a joke; even the previous me is stronger than your current state.

Nova: Hey, I am a high ruler of my own planet. I have many people who will protect me.

Arthur de Regalia: Aside from Ignis and Freya, who will protect you, really?

The room fell silent as Hamrick continued decoding the rest of the scroll. He concluded, 'It's complicated, but we have everything we need in the mountains. Meet me near the forge in Emberforge Mountain.'

Acknowledging the plan, Nova instructed Freya and Ignis to dismiss from the room and inform King Emberforge that they would be visiting his region.
