After hearing Draco's thoughts, everyone couldn't sit still.

Draco originally thought that Eric would be very unwilling to accept this. Although the situations of the two brothers could be said to be cruel in their own ways, Eric could never appear in front of others after all and could only hide his identity.

Unexpectedly, Eric felt quite happy. He was happy that while Charles was shouldering the heavy responsibility of being an earl, he was still able to pursue his dream of becoming a toy merchant.

"Charle and his brother's souls have been closely intertwined since their birth. Because of this, they can keenly perceive each other's joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness at any time and in any place."

Draco curled up lazily in Harry's warm and broad arms.

There weren't many noticeable changes in the tone of his voice.

Because for arrogant people like Eric and Charles, sympathy and compassion are undoubtedly a great humiliation.

They have always maintained their own unique pride and will never easily bow to fate.

At the moment Eric's life disappeared, a mysterious and subtle connection - the soul-level bond between him and Ciel - suddenly began to become unbalanced.

At the same time, Charles' heart seemed to be ignited by a raging fire. Witnessing his brother's tragic death and his inner resentment made him burst out with extremely strong emotions and desires.

These emotions surged from his heart like a surging tide, spreading outward with astonishing force. It was this powerful energy fluctuation that successfully attracted the attention of the demon Sebastian.

Eric was never afraid of death itself. He was just worried about the difficult situation his younger brother Charles would face once he was gone.

This concern was like a heavy chain, tightly binding his departing soul, and even taking away a part of Charles' soul without his awareness.

Harry, who was listening to the story quietly, couldn't help feeling surprised.

He frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Could it be that the funeral home is completely unaware of this? After all, part of Ciel's soul is truly entangled with Eric?"

You know, as an ancient god of death who has experienced the vicissitudes of life and is experienced, since the funeral house was able to save Eric from the brink of life and death, how could he turn a blind eye to such an obvious abnormality of the soul?

Draco pondered for a moment, and he already knew what the funeral house was planning.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. "It's obvious that the funeral home has its own ulterior motives."

In fact, it is not difficult to guess.

At that time, the funeral home had no connection with Draco.

At that time, he searched almost all of Great Britain, but still failed to find Vincent's wandering soul.

Not only that, even Vincent's body was destroyed in the raging fire along with the magnificent mansion of Phantomhive.

The funeral house has an indescribable and deep-rooted obsession with Vincent.

Because of this, when he discovered that Eric's soul was almost devoured by Sebastian, he did not hesitate to rescue Eric.

However, when he rushed to the scene, he could only replace Eric's soul, but he was unable to prevent the conclusion of the devil's contract between Charles and Sebastian.

Faced with the situation at that time, the funeral home had no choice but to remain silent and wait for the opportunity.

He watched helplessly as Ciel resolutely entered into a dangerous demonic contract with Sebastian in order to take revenge on his enemies, and was willing to use his precious soul as a bargaining chip to lure the other party into the trap.

In the funeral house's view, if they want to ensure that the Phantom family bloodline can be passed on for a long time, then the only feasible way is to give Eric a new life.

After all, deep down in his heart, he didn't have any deep emotional ties with these two children.

Moreover, the person he interacted with more frequently and closely was Eric, not the shy Charles.

However, having said that, he still kept a close eye on Ciel's every move.

He quietly witnessed how Ciel, with his own efforts and wisdom, set foot on the path to becoming the Count of Phantomhive step by step.

At the same time, he also witnessed with his own eyes that the Phantomhive family, under the leadership of Ciel, once again regained its former glory.

Whenever he thought of all this, a complex wave of emotions would involuntarily arise in his heart.

On the one hand, he was sincerely happy that Vincent had such outstanding children; on the other hand, he was full of doubts and worries about what was happening before his eyes.

Especially when he realized that Charles had lost a piece of his soul, this worry was magnified infinitely.

He was shocked to find that the vital soul was now residing in Eric's body.

The funeral home did not regard this situation as an entirely bad thing.

In the past years, he has always watched all this silently as a bystander.

Seeing that the devil who had always been cold-blooded and treated humans like ants was actually showing signs of being moved, he just found it ridiculous.

Oh, devil? Tempted? This is simply the biggest joke in the world!

Demons are a group of emotionless, vile, and dirty creatures, and this is something all the Death Gods know.

Because of this, he would never easily return this soul, which symbolizes true human love, to Charles.

At least, he must not do so until he has come up with a foolproof plan to completely break the mysterious contract between Ciel and the devil.

After all, demons have always been cunning people who are good at using sweet words to deceive people.

Although the young earl maintained a rare clear mind from beginning to end, it is always better to be safe than sorry, and one must always be careful in case of any eventuality.

The encounter with Draco was full of drama, and it can be said to be a wonderful fate interwoven with coincidences and accidents.

Over the years, he has been silently nurturing Eric's soul, and at the same time has never stopped searching for Vincent's soul.

His deep-seated obsession with Vincent had never diminished in the slightest.

He always felt that his lordship was waiting for him somewhere.

This is his intuition.

Until one day, an indescribable feeling came over me, as if the whole world was quietly undergoing some subtle changes.

As the most ancient and mysterious god of death, the current God of Death Management Department is just a product he created when he was bored over the long years.

How could the changes of all things in this world escape his keen perception?

What is particularly strange is that some information that did not exist in his memory suddenly flooded into his mind without warning - a bizarre story about the "three brothers".

Although the power he possesses does not seem to be invincible in this world, doesn't this phenomenon imply that there are beings in this world that are far more powerful than him?

Perhaps, this will be the key clue to find Vincent's whereabouts!

With full of expectations and hopes, he began to explore this new world.

He observed everything around him carefully.

Ordinary people still live their lives as usual and are not greatly affected by this incident.

Instead, many unprecedented wizards and all kinds of strange and magical animals suddenly emerged.

However, after some contact, he was disappointed to find that the strength of these wizards was far from what he expected, and they obviously could not be the person he had been looking for.

At that time, he accidentally heard that some wizards had mysterious predictive abilities, and this news ignited a glimmer of hope deep in his heart.

So he decided to find those prophets who were said to be so powerful, hoping to get good revelations about the future from them.

At this time, he unexpectedly met Draco, who came to the Muggle world to accompany his father Lucius to handle affairs.

At that fleeting glimpse, the funeral home's extremely keen sixth sense was like being struck by thunder, and it roared wildly: It's him! It must be him! The key person who can lead me to Vincent!

Without any hesitation, the funeral house, unlike usual, decisively and resolutely stopped Draco who was strolling alone.

Faced with the sudden situation, Draco showed extraordinary calmness. He did not panic because of the other party's abrupt behavior. Instead, he looked up and down at the man with strange behavior in front of him with interest.

It turns out that Undertaker's innate intuition was spot on.

Draco was indeed the important person he had been looking for for a long time.

By this time, Draco had already realized his own uniqueness, and he felt a strong curiosity about the god of death who suddenly appeared like a ghost.

After listening to the undertaker's earnest request, Draco pondered for a moment, and then a light bulb went off in his head, and he remembered a place that only wizard souls could set foot in - the King's Cross platform of Hogwarts Railway Station.

However, this is not the real King's Cross station that everyone knows, but an extremely special place for wizards - it is a place like a transit station after their death.

If we have to give this mysterious place a name, "Platform of Life and Death" might be more appropriate.

With Draco's spontaneous assistance, the funeral home was able to enter this strange space.

This was a place he could not interfere with, and he had never known such a place existed.

Of course, he also saw the figure of the person he had been thinking about day and night.

Vincent reappeared before him.

Perhaps it was the huge turmoil and chaos caused by Ian's conquest of the entire world that caused Vincent's soul, which was very likely to have some wizard blood flowing in his body, to be involuntarily drawn into it and brought to this platform of life and death.

Vincent, who was full of worries, never boarded the train to the place of reincarnation to accept the judgment from the god of death.

If not for this, the funeral home would have been able to find him successfully long ago.

Later, when we saw the funeral home, there was always a subtle and strange atmosphere between him and the man named Vincent.

Draco hadn't quite understood it then, but he did now.

In the process, the funeral house naturally discovered Draco's specialness, and he found that Draco seemed to be able to travel through different worlds.

But Draco didn't intend to hide this.

This made the Undertaker very interested in Draco.

He had considered whether he should use Draco's power to help him achieve more goals.

But Draco was not weak, and the aura he occasionally exuded even made the funeral house feel terrified.

Draco was also curious about the abilities of the Undertaker. Death was the person in his bedtime story, so who wouldn't be curious?

The two of them thus maintained a strange cooperative relationship.

"So is Ciel's soul complete now?" Harry frowned and looked at Draco curiously.

Harry was very perceptive and he knew very well that a strange and stubborn person like Undertaker would never agree to return Charles' soul fragment so easily.

Draco nodded unexpectedly. "Yes, the funeral home did not agree readily, but the final decision was made by the parties involved."

Harry couldn't help but show a hint of surprise. "The person involved? Is it Eric? Charles' brother?"

"That's right." Draco nodded slightly, and his mind couldn't help but recall the scene when he met Eric during the day.

At that time, Eric said something with a firm face that the funeral home could not refute.

"Why should we stop Ciel from truly feeling the love that others give him?"

There was an unmistakable light in Eric's blue eyes. He looked very much like Vincent now.

"Ciel is the head of the Phantomhive family, the distinguished Earl of Phantomhive, Liz's beloved fiancé, and the beloved nephew of Lady Red."

Eric's face was tense, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his expression was serious, as if shrouded in a heavy haze.

"But everyone sees him as me, as 'Sal Phantomhive'. But he's not the real Sal Phantomhive, is he?"

He is the real 'Ciel Phantomhive', but he and his brother have mischievously switched identities once again.

When Charles was mentioned, Eric's eyes softened, but there was still a hint of unspeakable pain in them.

His younger brother has always been a kind but timid child, shy, timid and extremely sensitive.

Faced with all kinds of hardships and difficulties, the child never complained.

Even though he was already exhausted inside, he always tried hard not to let his vulnerability show.

Thus, he took on the name of 'Shar Phantomhive' and embarked on the thorny road without hesitation.

He burned his life just to take revenge on the enemies who had dealt a heavy blow to his family, and grew up hard in the tempering of blood and fire.
