Back in the present, where Noel had completely healed his soul, ranked it up to Eclipsed Soul, acquired a talent related to the soul, and then finally regained his complete memories… another battle with the Scarf relic was coming up.
In his room, too shabby compared to the grand dimension where his last battle with the Scarf had concluded, and so different from the luxurious dimension where Selena and Lilith had prepared for him to help him regain his power, which he'd read about in the simulation — Noel was preparing himself for his upcoming confrontation.
After selecting the last two choices, the process of his power-up didn't take any longer than seconds, and he didn't even have time to sit down and deliberate on his memories. But he didn't mind.
He sat on the ground with his eyes closed, concentrating on his Soul Zone — far different from the one he once remembered and far stronger now.
