Pirate: It’s not a phantom beast, it’s a phantom god!

Chapter 3 Three people
The two figures lying on the ground suddenly woke up.

"?!"

"What's going on?"
"Where is this?"*2
"What's wrong with my voice..."*2
“And this body!”*2
"Who are you, blue-haired? Why are you imitating me?"

"Hmph, where did this red-haired wild girl come from? She's not even wearing any clothes! She's so shameless!"

From the very beginning, the red and blue combination achieved an astonishing performance of four sentences. In time, they will be two good candidates to play Hope.

[However, judging by their performance, neither of them has any emotional deficiencies like I do.]
Seeing the two people about to start quarreling again after just a few words, the golden girl ticked another guess in her mind.

After kissing each other for a while, the red and blue kitties finally began to calm down and observe their surroundings.

Then the two of them immediately noticed the golden figure who had been observing them silently.

"Oh my god! Why is there another person here?!"*2
One more point will be awarded for any excess.

"Nice to meet you, the other two 'me's." The blonde girl spoke calmly, but she dropped a bombshell.

As expected, the two were stunned when they heard this. The red wandering spirit couldn't help but speak directly.

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about, you golden-haired girl?" The red-haired girl's questioning came to an abrupt end.

An indescribable sense of familiarity seeped out from the depths of her soul, telling her the identity of the person in front of her.

"It's just what you think."

Jin Youling nodded. If the other party was also "himself", he should be able to easily figure out the current situation based on the words just now.

"We were originally one, but were split into three separate entities by some force."

"You are my father's illegitimate daughter!"

Jin Youling: “…”

The differences between individuals were somewhat beyond her expectations, and it was not a pleasant feeling to be suddenly left speechless by the other party in the middle of a conversation.

"We are one person?!"

Hong Youling, who had never expected the other party's words to be so explosive, was completely stunned.

"You, you, you suspicious guy, what are you talking about! How could I be..."

"Quiet, give me your hand."

Rather than continuing to explain the current situation with words, which was both time-consuming and inefficient, the golden wandering spirit chose a more intuitive method.

After hearing this, the two little ones still had doubts but still extended their hands obediently.

The other party's tone was not harsh, but they did not dare to disobey. It was a kind of suppression that seemed to come from the unknown.

The golden wandering spirit held the two small hands, one on the left and one on the right.

In just a moment, a faint soul resonance ran through the bodies of the three people like an electric current.

"Huh?! This feeling... even though it's very weak, it actually feels like our souls are connected."

Hong Youling was very surprised by the feeling that "I don't know why, but this is how soul connection should be."

"To be more precise, it's the remaining gravity after the originally complete soul was torn apart."

Lan Youling frowned. "But it doesn't make sense scientifically..."

The blonde girl loosened her grip, letting the remaining connection fade away in the air.

"Tell me about your memories. Do you remember what happened before you fell into the coma?"

"Ah! I, I remember I was playing cards, and then all of a sudden, everything went white, and then I knew nothing."

The red wandering spirit answered honestly and made an exaggerated gesture at the same time.

"Yeah, my memory is similar to this red guy." The blue wandering spirit also nodded with his hands folded.

"What about you?"

"As for me... Actually, I still had some awareness of what happened afterwards.

I could feel my soul being split into three by that light." The Golden Wandering Spirit recalled the moment before she lost consciousness.

"How can it be?

According to you, my soul was split into three parts, so how come I am still alive?

And still fully conscious.”

The red wandering spirit was still a little bit unbelievable.

"And you mean that you and this blue guy were actually split from me?!"

[Subconsciously, I consider myself the subject. Sure enough, after the split, everyone becomes an independent subjective individual.]
The Golden Wandering Spirit realized this fact from the other party's words.

This split is a separation in the true sense, not some kind of "one main, two deputy, or trinity" split. Everyone is an independent entity.

A broken soul cannot exist for long, let alone have any future, so it can only spin a new cocoon and wait to emerge as a new life.

[So, it is you who are weaving a new cocoon of life for us... Three Mythical Gods.]
Thinking of this, Jin Youling once again picked up a strand of her golden hair and placed it in front of her eyes.

The blue wandering spirit who had been silent on the side also grabbed a strand of her blue hair, twisted it left and right, and then began to nod to herself.

So, seeing this, Hong Youling, who was left aside and felt out of place, simply picked up her hair and started looking.

2000 YEARS LATER……

Perhaps because he felt that playing with hair was really boring, the red wandering spirit began to lose patience and started looking for someone to talk to.

But she didn't dare to look for Jin Youling who was obviously thinking about something, so she had to poke the blue guy who she always disliked.

"Hey, what are you nodding for? Do you know something?" "Huh. We're both 'me', so is there such a huge gap in our IQ?

Now it seems that you are formed by expelling the stupid and mediocre part of my soul."

Lan Youling was interrupted from thinking, and rolled his eyes sarcastically.

"Um?

What are you so proud of, you rude blue-haired bastard? You were just yelling 'This is unscientific!' or something like that."

Seeing this, Red Youling naturally did not show any weakness and began to protest loudly, and imitated Blue Youling's just-made mockery in return.

"Also, what's stupid? What's mediocre? Explain it to me, you little dwarf!"

"It's so noisy, be quiet! You red-haired trumpet spirit!

"After losing me, the source of calmness and wisdom, you're no longer able to think straight?"

"you……!"

"We can put this silly quarrel with ourselves off until later. How about we get back to the point?"

Jin Youling, whose thoughts were also interrupted, ended the argument with his highly recognizable voice.

"As you can see, there is still a faint connection between us who were once the same person.

This is probably because our souls have just separated and our new souls have not yet fully formed.

But I can feel those connections slowly fading.

Now I can't even feel your emotions anymore, so it seems we are indeed developing into a complete and independent individual."

Jin Youling put forward his own guess based on the existing clues.

"That is to say, what we are doing now is similar to meiosis.

Our "cell nucleus", which is the soul, splits and grows again into a new complete cell.

Then, due to certain factors, they split into different forms." The blue wandering spirit summarized his own understanding.

"what?"

The red wandering spirit replied with an emoji using his own face.

"That's right, and based on my guess, that 'certain factor' should be the power of the Three Mythical Gods.

The evidence is that our faces now are almost identical to the three mythical god figurines that were placed before us that day."

Kindly ignoring the confused red-faced man, Jin Youling continued to make supplementary remarks.

“The power of God merges into our broken souls and makes them whole.

But because it was an adult soul that was divided into three small parts, the body and age also became smaller, which is what it is now."

After hearing this, the two kids, Red and Blue, belatedly turned their attention back to their own bodies, and then began to grope at the rock next to them which for some reason 'happened' to be used as a mirror.

Looking at the two people who were busy and silent, Jin Youling did not stop:

"As for why it looks like this now, perhaps it's God's evil taste.

Or when the divine power was reshaping the soul, it saw a template nearby and used it directly.

Or maybe it's just that this is what the fusion of God and man might look like."

Finally, after studying himself in all aspects, the red wandering spirit stopped first and made a simple and wise summary.

"You two are making things so complicated, what with all the meiosis and cell-soul fusion stuff? To put it bluntly, it's just being fucked by the Three Mythical Gods!

Tsk~ I should have known not to recite the lines randomly. How come these Egyptian gods are enforcing the law across borders?!"

“Well, that’s roughly the situation.

But to call it a punishment is actually a bit inappropriate.”

Seeing that the other party understood the same thing, Jin Youling did not make any further explanations, but instead planned to talk about another more important matter that the other party would also be interested in.

"What do you mean? Are you happy to be like this? I just like Meika, but that doesn't mean I want to be Meika!
That's my lifeblood! My second brother who has been with me through thick and thin for decades!

Why did I want to make the three mythical gods into feminine versions? Wuwu~wuwu~~~"

The red beast, misunderstanding something, let out a wail like a motorcycle and was about to roll on the ground.

[It seems that not only has my body become smaller, but my mind has also become like a child?]
"When it was made into a feminine version, it was because the small head controlled the big head.

Now that the little head is gone, it's karma." The blue wandering spirit also came over at the right time to finish off the enemy.

"You guys, why don't you care at all?!
That, that is my second brother who is more important than the golden finger after traveling through time! "

The red motorcycle stopped rolling and looked into the speaker's eyes incomprehensibly, trying to see if the other person really meant it.

"It might take some time to get used to, but at the end of the day it's just an organ you don't use much except for going to the toilet. If it's gone, it's gone."

The other party still had an indifferent tone.

The red wandering spirit's pale golden pupils were filled with disbelief. Her souls had just separated, and the other party's cold words had already made her feel the disparity between them.

[Did I ever have this side of myself?] The red spirit felt a sense of strangeness about “myself.”

The sound of soft clapping interrupted her wandering thoughts.

"Okay, when I say it's not a punishment, I'm not referring to the gender aspect, but this..."

As he spoke, the golden wandering spirit stretched out a hand.
