Soul Calibur 3
story=The body without soul no longer to be sacrificed:
-"Les Centuries," Michel de Nostredame
Soul Edge and Soul Calibur...If a human were to absorb the power contained within these two swords...
Zasalamel put this idea into action. It was an idea no normal person would ever consider, but for Zasalamel, it was his only chance to attain true death.
He hid behind the scenes during the battle between the cursed sword and the spirit sword, appearing only when their powers reached their zenith. Then, using a secret art, he connected his body to the world of the abyss and created a jet-black sphere that absorbed all forms of energy. His plan was to use this to draw out the essences of the swords and take them into his own body. It was an act that only Zasalamel, with the knowledge gained from an eternity of lifetimes, could have performed.
Clusters of light, most pure and fierce, were released from the swords. For a moment, they seemed to struggle as if they had a will of their own, but then proceeded to be absorbed into Zasalamel's body. The power coursed through his entire body, and he began to transform.
At the end of an experience completely different from his countless rebirths, he had obtained sharpness of senses, overflowing power, and a voice that thundered like an echoing roar. Zasalamel thought that, having acquired this power, his goal had been achieved. The peace and death that he had sought were right before his eyes. But deep within him, something other than himself was beginning to awaken. He had invited into himself an inhuman power...
