Chapter 238: That's not an unconventional way but a ridiculous way!

The place where Athan appeared was none other than the corrosive dark space of Chambers of dooms.

He was trapped here after failing to get out from the chambers of doom after Ferexa and Hemakel died and had to turtle inside the special space.

This time, The corrosive darkness couldn't do anything to him even though he was just in his soul form.

' That guy sent me here, but...I don't know what to do from now on. With my current strange condition, I can easily survive in this corrosive dark space, but...how do I get out from here? '

His soul looked just like him, with a six-plus ft height and same facial features, but instead of the previous gold soul, It looked like a dark soul with a white border.

' It looks like I comprehended something extraordinary unconsciously at the last moment. However, I still can't control it or fully understand it. It's just my soul got mutated after I managed to grasp a minuscule of this power. '

At this moment, Athan heard the voice of Shiren.

" Kid...You need a corporeal body and enough power to get out from that weak little space of corrosive dark energy. Here...I am giving you this little clay. Play with it and create a good body for yourself. However, the body of this clay would be fragile, and you have to find your own unconventional ways to make it stronger, so Good luck in your journey, kid. I'll be looking forward to your development since I'll get a sparring partner if you manage to reach my level, hahaha. "

A dark brown mass appeared in front of Athan that looked just like clay. Its size was not big as it could fit on his palm.

Athan grabbed it but found nothing special, ' Am I supposed to create a body with this tiny mass of so-called clay? '

...

" Shiren...I don't understand one thing. What was that another power inside that kid's soul? He indeed managed to grasp that slight source of nothingness when he was at his last moment, and a fragment of his soul mutated after it managed to absorb the minuscule amount of it, but...It doesn't match that second power which even I couldn't recognize. At first, I thought that the white border was the usual soul source energy that everyone would have, but...it also contained something else, right? "

Shiren's face stretched as he smiled widely, " I don't know, Twez. I don't know...but that's why this is interesting. "

He laughed out loud as his eyes revealed the ever so slightly excitement deep within.

" That little kid managed to step into territory unknown to me, hahaha. How interesting...He managed to touch something that even I am unaware of. Actually, He is also unaware since it happened when he was only a clump of his instinct in the form of his soul fragment.

Maybe only Yukiel of the Eternity would know about it, but...I am not telling her, and you also better not. "

The horned tiger, Twez snorted in disdain, " Shiren...You are giving too much credit to that kid. It's a big question if he will even manage to grasp that power further and become stronger. To reach our level, He will have to go through many life and death situations. It wouldn't be strange if he died halfway. In the first place, He will have to find ways to get stronger by finding a new way considering his unique situation. "

Shiren nodded with a grin, " Indeed. If his situation weren't unique, I would have taken him with me to my territory and watch him closely, but...I can't."

Twez was slightly shocked after hearing ' I can't ' from Shiren and spoke, " Now that's the word I hear after a long time from you. Though, Why you can't? "

Shiren narrowed his eyes while still smiling, " Because...I simply can't. Anyway, It's better not to know some things, right? "

Twez's felt chilly and nodded before it lazily spoke, " Alright, I am going back to sleep. Wake me up when you are done containing that pest and finishing the job. "

After that, Twez disappeared, and Shiren took out a white-colored flute with two gorgeous white feathers attached to its end and started playing it after muttering something.

" Little kid. You better not die halfway because I am looking forward to meeting you up there. "

...

Athan was currently trying to control the clay and understand it to make a body for his soul, but it wasn't going well.

" How the hell am I supposed to create a body when it isn't stretching or expanding -_- is it really clay? " Athan muttered as he tried all ways possible.

After a few moments, he remembered what Shiren told him and muttered, " Unconventional...He told me to find an unconventional way...hmm. "

After thinking for a while, Athan finally decided to try the most unconventional way he could think of to create a body for him. Though, He didn't know if it would work or not.

" Unconventional way means something that is not normal...and eating this clump of strange clay is certainly not normal, so that should be the way. " Athan nodded as he felt that this was definitely the most unconventional way to use clay.

If Shiren found out about this unconventional way of Athan, He would be dumbfounded and certainly say this, " KID! That clay is to create a body for your soul and not to feed it to your soul!...This is not an unconventional way but a ridiculous way. "

Shiren certainly didn't expect that Athan would instead consume the clay. Even Shiren didn't know what would happen if Athan consumed this clay material that is generally used to house souls and sub souls.

At present, Athan, who is in his soul form, put the clump of clay material in front of his mouth and directly ate it whole.

The white border around his soul shined for a very short moment after Athan ate the dark brown clay material, and after that...He blanked out.
