Chapter 2242 "Jake, The Trader"
Letting someone control your soul, even if the controller was someone close to you, would not be something pleasant.
The feeling of one's own soul being held in other people's hands, regardless of whether the person was a close one or not, was nauseating.
Even people who had been together for more than decades would not easily let the other party control them, much less a soul, which was the most important thing for all ability users.
With a soul, they could still be revived or become spirits and embark on the journey to cultivate power as a spirit, which was like a second chance in life.
However, without souls, one could not become spirits or reincarnate, and that means their life would end right there with no other possibilities.
This was why, even though soul masters were unique, many ability users secretly hated soul masters.
In the era where the world was not as peaceful as it is now, because of people's excessive fear of soul masters, many elite ability users hunted down soul masters who could control souls, just like hunting witches and burning witches.
On the contrary, soul healers were cherished and became everyone's object of care, affection and other superior treatments.
In the past, many talented soul masters died unwillingly, and ironically, after death, because others were afraid that their abilities would still remain in the souls and the soul masters might have other ways to live....
Many ability users used various ways to destroy the souls of these soul masters.
The soul masters were one of the public enemies in the past, much more hateful than nowadays transmigrators.
No one would like the idea of their own soul being controlled and played with by other people, unless they made a deal with the devil in exchange for their souls or something.
However, Ainsley only had some subconscious reactions towards this soul-control force,, and soon, she restrained her innate instinct to resist and just let the controller behind her hold her soul tightly.
There was this one unique law among soul masters born from nature that even the top-level soul masters could not violate.
The ownership of a soul would only belong to one person. When the soul masters controlled the soul of a certain someone, even if other soul masters were stronger, they could not forcefully control the already held souls unless the soul resisted or the soul masters died.
Many soul masters would immediately brand the souls of their targets so that even if they didn't consciously control the soul, those souls would already belong to them.
This kind of soul contract was more binding than the usual soul contract because the usual one was just a contract, and there were various ways to erase the contract with the help of soul-related ability users.
On the other hand, the soul mark of soul masters was more like soul slavery, turning the targets into enslaved people.
That's how soul masters could have a lot of loyal enslaved people consisting of strong people because once a soul master branded someone's soul, they could not escape at all.
Jake didn't brand or mark the baby's soul, but he controlled the baby's soul, which means, even other stronger soul masters could not interfere until the soul target themselves struggled or until the soul master stopped controlling the soul consciously.
It was actually better to mark the soul once and for all, but Jake was just a copycat, so when he stopped using his God of Wealth ability, even if Ainsley's soul had been marked, the mark would disappear because the soul master ability was gone.
This was not like the real soul masters because their abilities would always be there.
After all, Jake's real abilities were not soul-related abilities at all. The God of Wealth's ability made him almost invincible, but there were also various limitations.
After Jake carefully controlled Ainsley's soul, the baby sighed relief instead of being afraid that her soul was in someone else's hand.
Ainsley had only been with Jake for two years or less, but she just felt like trusting Jake even with her most precious soul.
Maybe because Jake was one of the first few people who knew her identity as a transmigrator and didn't reject her, or something else.
Jake himself also lived up to Ainsley's trust and comforted the baby so that she would not have to worry about her controlled soul all the time...
The man finally used his newly awakened ability that he revived after the century war.
Because Jake had to do business to recover his loss in the century war back then, the man vigorously used his businessman's instinct and other deals to get tons of money.
That's when he awakened his third ability after living for twenty-five years.
The third ability was still something related to money and business, and it looked much weaker than the God of Wealth Ability that could use any abilities in exchange for money, but this ability could be said to be super suitable for the businessman.
Jake's third ability that very few people knew, and even Ainsley herself didn't know just yet, was called the trader.
Jake could make a trade or deal with other people, and both parties had to abide by their deals. If not, their souls would be extinguished by the law of this world!
Any kind of trade or transaction could be realized, as long as both parties consented to the trade.
Even a soul could be traded off.
Now, Jake was more like a businessman from hell, like the devil who made a deal with someone else's souls.
Unless Jake died, the souls would forever be one of Jake's invisible assets.
