Chapter 283 - chapter 83

Mo Huai touched his temple with two fingers and flicked over a package of mental energy containing wills and memories, explaining exactly what he was told. Hamar caught the capsule of crushed it, causing a torrential of wills to enter his mind. He parsed them and waited for a voice inside to tell him the result, in his inner voice, "So Hou? Is it salvageable?"

In a separate part of his soul, Hou's consciousness pulsated as it begun thinking. Eventually it bounced back, "There's still a chance...maybe..." He then continued to explain his plan to Hamar.

William held out his hand outstretched, "Master, Hamar, I hope you've been good." As he held out his hand he quickly added, "Sorry again, for ruining what you were trying to do."

Hamar heard Hou's plans and chuckled, focusing back on reality he took William's hand and shook it, "Don't even mind it, it's not over yet. But..."

"But?" Both Mo Huai and William said in unison.

He chuckled, "But, I'm going to need both of your helps now because of this all. Before I explain let me take care of that," he posted towards William's makeshift snowstorm aura bubble.

Walking over, he covered his right arm in a thick layer of his aura and as he got closer he looked back, "On a count of three, release your aura."

William nodded, "Sure thing boss!"

Hamar rolled his shoulder and pulled it back, "1..."

"2..."

"3...Go!" He shouted as he pushed his arm forward and reaching through the rapidly dissolving snowstorm aura into the centre which contained a parcel of causality covered in Hou's mental energy. Normally, he would not be able to take control so easily but he and Hou's consciousness' had a connection through their shared souls and so their mental energy could be used because either of them.

The tips of his fingers instantly lost all of its aura protection and became blue but he pushed through and grasped the causality. Pushing quickly, he absorbed it back into his inner true world.

In the conversion, a small amount of his thoughts caused a portion of causality to manifest and attach itself onto William. In that moment prior, Hamar had unconsciously thought of one thing, 'for Hou's predictions with William to work'. The causality instantly worked without any special technique, it flew into William's form and acted upon the world he inhabited and changed his self. William jumped back but didn't dodge, he looked down at himself and saw nothing wrong, "Was that...supposed to happen?"

Hamar tutted, "It isn't anything harmful, just a side effects of what I did in a way." He clapped and turned around, facing both Mo Huai and William; his teacher and his disciple, "This backup plan needs both of you to do something. Firstly, Master, I need you to cover the entire Solar Lands with your own qi and mental energy."

No Huai looked up, "I should be able to do that easily. Anything else from me?"

Hamar pointed to Mo Huai's hand, "That consciousness, it's not fully formed. It's basically a shell, I need you to absorb it first."

"Absorb it?"

Hamar channelled Hou's words he transmitted a few moments ago and presented them to his Master as his own, "We need your mental energy to be recognized as mine as much as possible."

Mo Huai squeezed tight, and nodded while not sure of the exact purpose his trust overpowered curiosity, "I'll do it."

Hamar turned to William, "And Will, I need you to do as much as you can to freeze the Solar Lands in its entirety after Master finishes his duty."

"Aye aye, I can can do that..." While he said that, inside his heart a nagging sensation told him he didn't have enough power to do so...but another voice also spoke to him. A voice of unusual hope, something told him that what he thought was his maximum wasn't even close.

Hamar squinted listening to William's words trail off, thinking to himself, 'The causality inside William just fluctuated...let's hope that doesn't mess with the plan.'

Hamar pulled at his temple and a small capsule of wills formed, he handed them to Mo Huai and told him, "As you try to absorb the consciousness take this capsule and send it into the consciousness."

Mo Huai took the capsule, "I'll trust you. Shall we begin?"

Hamar nodded and closed his eyes, moving his feet into a cross-legged position. He needed to regulate his thoughts as to control the causality, he had already seen even a small deviation had caused a portion to fly into William. He only had a small amount of causality...though if Hou's plan works by absorbing the Solar Lands he should regain the spent causality and more, he recalled:

'Causality is a sort of administrative budget given by the Sea of Worlds, right now we have nothing inside the inner true world so out budget is limited...add the Solar Lands and it will increase. Theoretically, that is.'

Once Mo Huai takes the pill, it will tell the consciousness to combine into Mo Huai's, a feature only possible due to its unique status as a not-full consciousness. Then, he will remove as much of the Sea of World's influence from the Solar Lands and replace it with his own. Again, this was only possible due to the Solar Lands being a secluded domain of a 'secluded domain' of a full world (being in a miniature world in Araxis' world) which gave it multiple degrees of desperation and wracking it's strength.

William, for his part, would freeze the world; which would further decrease the Sea of World's influence and allow Hamar to absorb it more easily.

Finally, once as much of the Sea of World's influence is removed or supressed, Hamar will use the causality to bring the Solar Lands into his Inner True World. Which is only possible due to Hou's excellent planning such as Mo Huai's consciousness temporarily gaining Hou's semi-consciousness l' mental signature allowing him to absorb the secluded realm more easily.

Hamar repeated the theory and then cleared his mind, ready to start once the plan had finished being set up; the causality needed to be treated extremely carefully.
