While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Chapter 462 - Newfound Enlightenment



Shinka\'s estimation of their power was similar, and she was a peak Master Level Soul, but felt as though she would still struggle against Adam who was only an early Master Level Soul.

His aura and presence made her feel as though he was dangerous, while the way he was and healed her made her feel as though he was her close friend and someone she trusted.

"How did you know that I am still unable to properly tap into the power of my horns?"

"It is quite obvious. They are one of the most extraordinary and powerful things in the universe, so if you could truly use them, you would be able to crush me without even trying,"

"However, when you master the power of your horns, I would have also mastered a power of my own and don\'t think that those horns will beat me,"

Shinka was deep in thought and no matter how hard she tried she was unable to tap into her horns and when she would ask her family members, they would merely say that everyone\'s horns were different.

And that was the truth.

She needed to learn to control and use her horns for herself and the power she could draw out of it was completely up to her, while it would also be unique to her.

"Adam, do you have any idea how I can use these horns of mine?"

She knew it was a stupid question considering that Adam was a human and would not know anything about the underworld or her horns, however; she was surprised by his answer.

"That is exactly the problem. You act as though your horns are a weapon and a tool,"

"While you were recovering your Soul Power, I noticed that your horns would glow slightly and suck in energy for you. They seem to be able to resonate with the surroundings and it seems as though you are on the verge of being able to use one of its powers. However, you will never be able to do it if you continue with your current approach," stated Adam.

"What do I need to do?" she asked, recognising that everything he said was true and very accurate.

"You need to accept the horns as a part of you and look at them as the centre of your power. If you exclude it from your body and continue to think of it as merely a weapon, then you will never be able to draw out its true power. While if you want to be able to control that power, you need to think of it as an extension of yourself and control them as if they were your limbs,"

"Your determination, progress and drive are impressive. You are likely to be even more powerful than me, but don\'t realise it, because while chasing power, you forgot about yourself. Don\'t become stronger only to please your clan and take on their responsibility. Do it for yourself and be happy and excited to do so,"

Hearing everything that Adam said, she felt enlightened.

Despite the satisfying feeling of getting stronger and her clan all praising her because of her great work, progress and hard work, the truth was that she felt as though something was missing.

Adam was speaking to her from experience and he felt as though her horns were similar to his Bloodlust Characteristic.

Until she excepted it as a part of her and treated it as something that was entirely under her control, she would never truly be able to reach her full potential.

As for the happiness part, Adam chased the thrill and satisfaction of experiencing new things, battling against all sorts of beings and going on a long adventure, but Shinka didn\'t seem to have anything like that she was looking forward to.

"Maybe when you have more freedom, we can go on a fun adventure together" offered Adam, seeing that she envied his position and free lifestyle.

"That would be great, I have always wanted to have fun like humans do. Humans have such simple lives and bodies, that I sometimes envy it, but I also understand that with my power, potential and position, I am envied by many around the entire universe," 

She was beginning to understand herself and the perspective of others, and was eager to begin putting her newfound enlightenment to the test.

"Could you answer a question for me? Why don\'t Death Wraiths other than yourself react to my presence or anything other than the soul they need to take back to the underworld?"

It was something that he had been curious about but never received an answer for.

"Oh, that is all you want to know. It is because their senses to everything other than the target that was set for them, was sealed. They don\'t come into contact with anything physical while all soul cultivators know not to mess with any Death Wraiths, as although they are basically defenceless, the underworld would send more powerful people from the Death Corps to eliminate anyone going against the underworld,"

"That makes sense. So basically they can be thought of as robots and that is how they are able to come with the infinite deaths that occur all the time in the universe. While you and other Soul Creatures that have more responsibility and freedom are aware of what happens around them," 

"Yes, and no. I have more freedom because of my position and father. You can think of me as one of the princesses of the underworld and there are few that dare to disrespect me in the entire universe even after my clan has declined so much," 

"But what the hell is a robot?"

She seemed amazed by all the things that were normal to humans, while Adam was interested in the underworld and everything about it, so their conversation was endless.

Shinka for the first time felt comfortable with someone and felt as though their conversation didn\'t have any hidden intentions behind it.

\'This is friendship\' she said to herself as she smiled.

Adam was amused by how happy she became after a single conversation, but was glad he had become her ally and had that conversation with her.

Their fun and relaxed time together soon came to an end after they suddenly sensed a large amount of Evil Soul Power being used.
