[CH598+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Chapter 765

After just under four days, my first stage of training within the first floor of the High Orc tower is complete.

I stand before Seraphel, still glowing with an ethereal pristine light in my Noble Human Form. As his deep blue eyes stare down at me with the same jaded gaze, his words seep into my mind.

"You're a quick learner... I'm still surprised a human without a special physique could bring their true body to the Upper Realm. Even in your Noble Form, your adaptability is impressive."

–

Over these last few days, I've managed to absorb far more green divine threads as they flow through me, without using any borrowed stats. On top of that, I've been focusing on synchronizing my Noble Vibrations with Seraphel's.

The first few hours were quite chaotic, as I deactivated all of my external system aid, only using my Noble Body to adapt to the Upper Realm. However, with the use of my absorption mutation, getting to a stable state doesn't take long—especially with the mental clarity my Noble Form grants me.

Once I am coherent in the dark room with this Ancient Wyvern, the real training and lesson on wielding Noble Vibrations begins.

He says that everyone's wavelength is unique, and usually, a Noble slowly adapts to their Vibrations as they grow stronger and eventually unseal their Noble Forms.

It seems I've missed an important step in the usual process.

While my mind seems clear and the will I can exert over my environment has grown to a mind bending amount, the blue Wyvern relates my power to the words of humans it has spied on in the past, and this is burned into my psyche once our training begins.

"You are but a baby wielding an axe heavier than yourself. By working all day to move its blade toward a tree's base, you may be able to chip its bark, which is far more efficient than using your hands alone... Though, if your body can mature enough to synchronize with this new power available to you, that same tree can be chopped down with a single swing."

Seraphel states that he will teach me how to control a very steady state of vibrations, along with a technique to suppress them when not in use. However, his words about showing me the Wyvern Race's techniques sink into my core even deeper than his analogy of harnessing this power.

"I have not lived through your eyes, so I can never understand the exact vibrations that suit your needs. In fact, my own interpretation of the true path of nobility very well could be flawed. Don't listen to every powerful elder's advice. Fools grow old too, you know."

At this, I see the Wyvern grin, which is a rare occasion for the stoic being. So, I begin comprehending the basics and don't worry about creating my own style just yet. For now, I need to adapt my body to this new environment and strange power enough to the point where I can lift up this metaphorical axe.

–

After this initial round of three days straight of synchronization and suppression techniques, I reply to Seraphel's compliment about being a quick learner.

"Thank you, but I now see how much I still don't know..."

My breathing stays steady, and despite my outward flowing ethereal appearance, there are no longer Noble Vibrations rippling off me.

There aren't any coming off Seraphel either, as we are both using the same suppression technique.

The only difference is Seraphel has practiced this for hundreds of thousands of years.

I've hardly even known about it for three days.

My body feels hot, and my heartbeat's pace rises with every second I keep myself concealed.
