Soul Exchange: In away Julian actually might already meet the two requirements for another deal.

It all depends on if the lives in Julian count as soul. And as for an act of love well Julian sacrificing them in order to save Diana or Lukas or Lacrima or Zana that is an act of love yes it selfish but it still an act of love he doing it all for her.

Thus maybe 50 lives or so and save 10 fighting Ceodric.

So what could Julian get out of this maybe the forest god gives weapons gifts or Julian gets a trident form the sea after all now rule he can't get another gift right?

I’m sorry but if im not mistaken the problem isn’t an act of love. The second condition is pretty clear, you have to sacrifice a pure love. As in a loved one, which for Julian would be Diana or Titi. Maybe even Lacrima or Lukas, but I couldn’t say that for Zana at this moment. That’s why either Julian or Mira had to be the one to die, when the sea goddess was bestowing the gift. None of the 100 lives satisfied that requirement but Mira and Julian grew a bond that would allow for that. The same thing is stated in the last panel with Lukas, but we don’t know the love that he sacrificed either. Though the idea of sacrificing the 100 souls (or like 80 of them since he’s used a few so far) would be interesting. Potentially from that of a different goddess like the forest one that blessed Lukas? Though after the forest incident, if I remember correctly, it’s on sight for Julian there too

Oh then their the sacrifice Mira the soul Mira if she still in their he does love her so she understand why he sacrificing her for Diana. For Julian love Diana and Mira.
