Outside the game world. Loud and thundering cheers echoed in the hall as a man dressed in a black suit and black top hat appeared. While holding a black cane adorned with a golden egg-shaped handle, he turned around majestically and addressed the audience, "Hello Everyone! Welcome to another episode of Soulless TV, where we bring you updates inside the simulated world!" Osuda said, his lips curled up high. His excitement was palpable as he scanned the crowd. "Two weeks since the soulless players…-

After Philip calmed down, he pondered more deeply about this matter. "By that time, I had already upgraded my Mental stat above 15 and had partially summoned my astral body when using my so-called 'Spatial Cognitive State'. From that, I should also be able to see other astral projections. So, since I didn't notice someone lurking at Alma Inn, it was highly likely that my true child body was still not known.' 'However, it was different for his Raven identity. Someone should have seen him.' Philip…

After Alisha's response, the crowd turned their attention to Conrad, who was actually Philip in disguise. However, when they didn't see any reaction from him, they could only continue their discussion. "Then what's the current situation with the Evans? Have they been absolved of their crime?" another man asked. "Yes," Alisha answered. "It was found out that the Evans knew nothing about the firearms as they were buried way before the Evans bought the estate. You can say that they just got unlucky."…

October 8, 1857 - Thursday Morning Early in the morning, Philip trudged to the university gate with a heavy step. The orange sunlight streamed through his ostensibly exhausted face. Philip, who currently transformed into Conrad, passed through the gate and walked on the stone pathway leading to the library. When he reached the College of Medicine building, which is the closest building to the library, he noticed Sam up ahead, yawning. As though Sam had eyes on his back, he turned around and waved…

Philip silently stared at his system and noticed the addition in his Profession: Half-Dreamwalker. "..." He wasn't sure if he would be irritated by the 'half' or be happy since he was now a 'dream walker'. He chuckled to himself and turned his gaze to his karma. He realized that once his karma went back to -10, he would no longer experience sudden misfortune like before. This made him believe that only when his negative karma exceeded 10 would it bring him trouble. 'Come to think of it,…

Although Philip had some doubts about this abnormal society, his desire to become a mentalist was too strong to ignore and believed that being proactive was the best course of action. 'If I want to be more powerful, I need the help of the society. Moreover, this is the perfect place to start if I want to explore and be integrated into the mystical side of the world.' Philip thought. After much contemplation, he decided to join the club while remaining cautious. He unhurriedly walked to the platform…

"How?" Lala's eyes almost popped out, stunned at how Philip could achieve an astral state for the first time. 'How could this be possible? Even I took two months of practice just to summon my astral body.' Lala mulled as she quickly looked at Sam, who at the same time, wore the same reaction as hers. Sam almost couldn't control himself from maintaining his state, causing his physical body to woggle while it stood on the platform. 'Is this why the teacher gave him the poster because he is a…

"What do I do now?" Keith seemed not surprised by Lala's current state. He just threw a question, waiting for a new instruction. "Why don't you try standing up?" Lala replied. She still had that same annoying smile on her face. Keith wasn't bothered by her smile as he controlled his body with difficulty. Starting from his right foot, he slowly placed them away from the table, swinging midair before the floor. After he was done with this, he carefully let his left foot follow. It was only when…

After Philip heard the goal of the society, he felt that the people around became instantly enthusiastic, even Sarah, who had been quiet, couldn't contain her excitement. As for him, while he was indeed surprised and thrilled, he also couldn't help but worry about the society's ulterior motives. Questions raced through his mind: "Why do they want to study this? What do they hope to gain? Could it be dangerous for those who can summon their astral body?" The appearance of the strange doors and…

"Good day everyone! Welcome to another session of the Mental Study Society. I am Sam Collins, a third-year psychiatry student and the presider of today's week discussion." As soon as he said them, two illusionary doors emanating with pinkish lure suddenly emerged on the bare wall behind him. Philip's eyes widened as he instinctively prepared to run. However, when he saw Sarah next to him had the same reaction but showed no fear, then he controlled himself from overreacting. Sarah and Philip's eyes…
