Chapter 233 - Chase's Progress Part 1
"I am not sure where this monk inheritance came from or who it was made by, but I am sure I will find out when I am powerful enough..." stated Chase before being interrupted by the curious Adam.
"How will you find that out?" asked Adam abruptly, interrupting Chase.
??He had so many questions about the Dungeon System and there were so many things that he didn't know and understand, so when he heard that Chase would be able to find out something in the future when he got more powerful, he couldn't help but become curious.
"Calm down big bro. I am not completely sure, but if you let me explain how the Monk Inheritcane works, you will understand" said Chase.
After Adam relaxed and allowed him to speak, Chase began his explanation.
"The Monk Inheritance was somehow placed within my mind when the trinket was passed down in my family and after that, my memories and mind became a bit hazy and changed slightly. It allowed me to become one with my surroundings and accept everything around me and also gave me some sort of sixth sense. It is almost like I can sense an individual's karma, which gives me an idea of whether somebody was a good person or not. My mind also gained the ability to become completely blank, completely focused and allowed me to ignore pain, which is very useful while cultivating, training or in battle"
[It seems that he has something similar to my Hunter's mind, but it also allows him to sense people's karma levels, which is what I would expect from a monk. I wonder if my karma is high] thought Adam to himself.
He has killed and harmed people, but only those that were against him or had done something wrong and Adam felt as though he had helped some people and wasn't a bad person.
But he didn't classify himself as a good person, so was curious as to what his karma was like and whether or not it was what attracted Chase to him.
"So, what is my karma like?" asked Adam before Chase could continue his explanation.
"Well, karma is good or bad luck that is a result of one's actions. But sometimes one's bad actions doesn't really affect their luck and it also ties into one's fate, destiny and potential. Your karma is actually relatively good and quite normal, but there seems to be a lot of bad karma around you as well that must be because you killed" answered Chase.
"There is a manual that I can use to see what the aura around someone means and there are different colours that I can use to gauge what one's karma is like. Your karma isn't anything special, but your fate is very strong and you are destined to accomplish great feats from what I can see. It was so strong that it was overwhelming for a monk, like me, who can sense these sorts of things and I couldn't help but be drawn to you" continued Chase.
"So what do you gain by doing so and what are the limitations of this ability?" asked Adam.
"Um, well, it isn't always accurate and only gives me a vague feeling. It also isn't very useful in reality as I can't do much with it. But what I gain by following you is that I have also become a part of your life and might be affected by your great fate" answered Chase.
"It seems to be working so far. All the things you have done to help me have helped me to become more knowledgeable, more capable and more powerful. I couldn't help but be drawn to such a bright light" added Chase.
Adam didn't know how to feel about what Chase told him and already knew that with the system, he must be involved in or capable of reaching things that most couldn't.
But what scared him was that he didn't know what was coming for him in the future and all that he could do was prepare and face it head-on.
"Going back to what I was saying, the monk inheritance is like a tall tower in my mind. I am not sure how many floors there are and there could be 10,000 or only 5. Each of these floors has many different techniques, skills and methods that I can use that would all be used by a monk and they are unlocked based on my current knowledge and power level" explained Chase.
"The more of each floor I unlock, the more powerful and knowledgable I should be and the more of a monk I should be. When I was guarding your aunt and couldn't leave her side, I decided that I needed to find something that I could cultivate without moving" continued Chase.
"So I cultivated a new breathing technique and knew internal cultivation method and another technique that the Monk Inheritance gave me when I wanted something to cultivate something that didn't require me to move or physically train"
"Do you think the Monk Inheritance has a mind of its own to be able to give you what you want?" asked Adam as he thought about Ava that was sat within his mindscape observing everything that was occurring.
"I'm not really sure. It definitely isn't alive, but it can sense what I want and my current power and knowledge level" answered Chase who was quite confused by Adam's question.
Adam let out a sigh of relief as if he had some sort of system, it should have been able to sense his own and there was always a possibility that others also had systems.
Gathering everything that Chase had told him and everything that he could sense from him, Adam had a much better idea of how everything was.
"I can guess that the other technique you cultivated was some sort of concealing technique"
Chase nodded his head and was pleasantly surprised by Adam as he hadn't expected him to be able to sense that he was using a concealing technique.
