That said, now that he is rank 5 there is really no point anymore to hide the fact he is a body snatcher
Generally the less people know about you and can look up about you, the harder it will be to plot against you. Also Leylin enjoys having a good reputation when he can, being a body snatcher wont exactly inspire confidence in others.
"‘Using a method to extinguish one’s bloodline and not even letting off their friends or acolytes… ’ Krupp secretly wiped off the perspiration, ‘Patriarch is no saint…’" This is a bit of an understatement
But there's no benefit in revealing that. He already considers himself Leylin, everyone knows him as such, and the knowledge he has from Earth is mostly useless. Also, there could be higher rank creatures that would like to study how a soul that came from another world at human level looks like and if that's possible to replicate or even applicable to 4th rank and higher magi.
Well he is neither leylin or fang ming both of them died one from a beating and the other from a nuclear reactor. This is a completely different person with different goals entirely.
The body of a player, the talent of a world transmigration, just a bit of evilness and brains *poof* holy shit we created a monster
It's so weird seeing rank 3s try to talk to Leylin. The man has Rank 4s who would obey him. He doesn't even put Rank 3s in eyes. Even rank 5s aren't quite at his level
He could claim that he stole leylin's spot at the carriage back before he was an acolyte. Instead of a body snatcher. Or just not saying anything, just declare "from now on call me this name" ... but then again. No real point.
I don't know, if you can use a soul curse to kill everyone associated with a person's family, there might be a loophole that would skip over Leylin as his soul isn't born from the same family? Then again his Soul is more part of the snake family than any human anyway by now... He also shouldn't have a human bloodline either...
