Chapter 987  Red Strings Soulmates in the Web of Relationships

The kid expanded on this notion, adding, "There are your other soulmates whom you didn\'t get the chance to meet in this reality."

Rudy\'s thoughts swirled with these newfound revelations, and he sought clarity with the lingering question, \'How am I supposed to know if they are my soulmate?\'

The kid\'s response was practical and direct, "I want to say you would see a red string attached to their bodies, but that\'s comical. Your life is not a fairytale. If you want them, you have to find them. It won\'t be easy, obviously. But there is one way to find out. When you cross paths with them and look at them, interact with them... you feel a certain type of attraction towards them. Like you want to hold them, hug them, kiss them, fuck them. Your emotions will be going wild, and you won\'t know what to do. It will be a mixture of love and lust."

The kid couldn\'t help but wear a knowing smile as he asked Rudy, "Have you ever experienced that?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Rudy was no stranger to these emotions, as he remembered his powerful attraction to Jane. At that time, he had wanted to make her his, regardless of what it took.

The girl interjected to provide further context, "However, that won\'t happen if you have a different kind of relationship with them after birth. For example, let\'s say, you were born as the biological brother of one of your soulmates, or one of them was born as your daughter, granddaughter, even."

"Or as a niece," the kid added, underlining the complexities of these soulmate relationships.

\'...\' Rudy fell silent for a moment.

The girl, observing Rudy\'s contemplation, decided to add an important detail. "And remember, it\'s a two-way connection. Your soulmates will experience the same kind of intense attraction towards you. They will want to make you theirs, no matter what and how. It\'s a bond that transcends mere physical attraction; it\'s a profound connection of souls, an unbreakable force that binds your destinies together." Rudy\'s understanding of this deep, interwoven connection between himself and his soulmates grew even clearer, solidifying the importance of finding and embracing them across the different realities.

 "You naturally wouldn\'t feel that kind of attraction towards them and wouldn\'t know if they are your soulmate," the girl had stated.

Rudy pondered the implications, his thoughts lingering on the intricacies of these bonds. \'Wouldn\'t that mean they would marry or have a relationship with someone other than me then?\' he questioned.

The kid provided insight into this, "That\'s where the soulmate part comes in. Your soulmates will never feel attracted to anyone other than you. Suppose, even if they were forced to marry someone, the person they married would die. They have divine protection."

The girl added further, "And your soulmates will also always be virgins. Meaning, your mother, grandmother, or any other women who are not virgins won\'t be your soulmates. But remember, you can impregnate your soulmate and be reborn as their son. So that would make them your mothers."

\'That\'s a... lot to take in,\' he admitted. \'So if we don\'t cross paths, doesn\'t that mean they might lead somewhat lonely lives, always waiting for something they might not even fully understand?\'

The girl responded, "It\'s true, they may live unique lives compared to others, but their longing for that unexplainable connection might serve as a guiding light throughout their existence."

As Rudy delved deeper into the intricacies of his soulmates, a particular question arose about Nyxia.

\'What about Nyxia? Is she my soulmate?\'

Her lineage, consisting of children, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren, appeared to challenge the idea of virginity and soulmate connections. Rudy was seeking clarity, desiring to understand Nyxia\'s place in this complex puzzle.

The girl began to answer, "Nyxia is an exception. She has been an exception ever since she was born. She has escaped death countless times." It was a cryptic response, not directly addressing Rudy\'s question. The kid, seeing the need for clarity, intervened, "That\'s not what he asked. He wants to know if Nyxia is his soulmate or not."

The girl, now focused on answering Rudy\'s question directly, turned to him and stated, "You have to be stupid to not realize it by now."

"..." Rudy contemplated the implications, hesitating to voice his lingering question. The kid, ever perceptive, encouraged Rudy to think more deeply. "Your concept of summarizing and hinting things is beyond anyone\'s comprehension," he chided the girl. "You think you have said enough because you know everything, but others don\'t."

In response to Rudy\'s unspoken question, the kid affirmed, "Nyxia is your soulmate."

Rudy hesitated to ask the next question, for it touched upon a sensitive topic. \'But she...\' His voice trailed off, leaving the rest of the sentence unspoken. He didn\'t want to know why someone else had kids with Nyxia when she was his soulmate.

The kid pointed his gaze at the girl, and urged Rudy to connect the dots. "She gave you certain examples, remember? I gave one too. Why did you think she chose \'sister, daughter, and granddaughter\'? Think about it."

Rudy began to piece it together. \'Oh… so you mean… they are my…\'

The kid confirmed his understanding. "Yes." \'But I don\'t have a sister or a niece.\'

"How do you know? You don\'t even know who your biological parents are," the kid shrugged.

Rudy expressed his disappointment, reflecting on the timing of these revelations in the face of his current state. \'Well, what\'s the point of knowing all this now when I am already dead. I would have appreciated it if you had told me all this long before,\' he sighed, a tinge of regret in his voice.

\'And I won\'t even remember any of this after I reincarnate in the fourth reality,\' Rudy added.

"That\'s precisely why I am letting him tell you everything," the girl asserted, her gaze moving back and forth on Rudy and the kid.
