Chapter 81 - Symbols And Mount Sun (2)

After his master's speech, Asil was quite surprised. After all, he learned from the conversation between the Skinny Man and his master that he had a black symbol. This meant that Asil was one of the people or their children who were the source of the symbol he possessed, or someone with the black symbol gave him his power.

While Asil considered which of these two options was more likely to happen, his thoughts were interrupted by Sirius continuing to speak: "Your symbol is Sun Symbol. This symbol is the symbol of a place known as Mount Sun, and the source of this symbol is the family that ruled Mount Sun. I don't know how you got a black Sun Symbol, but no matter how you got that symbol, it's pretty dangerous for you. If someone else gave you the power of the symbol, and after you gave it to him, he went into seclusion, no one noticed it until now because the power of your symbol had not awakened. But since the symbol was recently awakened, this must have already been noticed by now. If you get the symbol that way, they'll find you in a few years at most, and when they do, if you're not at least as strong as the nut that was with us just now, you're definitely dead! If the reason you have the Black Sun symbol is that you are the child of one of the main members of the family that runs Mount Sun; and given that you are such a high-level genius (!) it is impossible, but still, if that is the case, when you make the second awakening of the symbol, if you can't be strong enough to stop it, you either kill yourself after doing things you regret, or you get killed by someone else after they take your symbol power."

Because of the serious voice, his master used to speak, Asil understood that his own symbol was a serious thing. Asil asked immediately for this: "Master, you said that symbols represent certain things. What exactly does the Sun symbol represent? And where exactly is The Mount Sun? I don't think anyone else gave me the Sun symbol. After all, it is impossible for someone like me, who grew up in a tourist area, far from cities like this place, to have been granted such power by someone else. So, the only outcome that can happen is that I am the child of one of the main members of the family, or one of their own, who is the source of the Sun Symbol."

After the Asil's words, Sirius replied without hesitation. "I don't know exactly what the Sun Symbol stands for, but I do know its characteristic. The Sun symbol is a symbol that lifts the physical and spiritual limits of the person who uses it and elevates the owner's power for a short time. I'm not sure if it has any other power than that, but I don't want to find out because I don't like dealing with people on Mount Sun. As for you being the main member of the family that runs Mount Sun, that's absolutely impossible, because I know all of them. So you're either one of their's son or one of them gave you your strength. But both are near impossible."

"You are not someone who is powerful enough to reach the Core Profound Realm at the age of one or a person with a terribly cruel soul, so you can't be from that family. It's impossible for a family like this to give symbol power to someone as weak as you for no reason. I mean, I don't know what your situation is, but I can tell you that the source of your symbol is extremely powerful. It is even so powerful that I, by trying, can defeat all those who have the Black Sun Symbol except the leader of the family. But even if I beat them, I have to pay a price. I mean, do you understand how powerful they are and how different they are from you?"

After the words of Sirius, Asil gulped involuntarily. The main members of the family, the source of The Sun Symbol, according to his master, were powerful enough that even his master would have to pay the price when fighting them. Who was his master?  He was someone who despised a profound monster that was in the midst of the Natural Profound Realm and could threaten to kill someone who destroyed such a monster in one blow only with his imaginary image! And each of the main members of this family who ruled The Mount Sun were people who, at the age of one, could reach such a high level as the Core Profound Realm, and his master would have to pay a price when fighting them!!

Asil remained silent for a few seconds after he gulped,  and then suddenly asked the first of two questions that came to his mind: "Master, you said that the main members of this family had reached the Core Profound Realm at the age of one. How can this be? Don't the profound veins open when you're twelve?"

After Asil's question, Sirius replied dismissively: "Twelve years old? The reason that the profound veins of humans open here at the age of twelve is that the density, purity, and quality of the profound energy here is low. The higher the density, purity, and quality of the profound energy in a place, the sooner the profound veins of the people living there emerge, and the sooner these people naturally get the profound power."

After his master's reply, Asil's eyes widened in astonishment. The information he had just learned was a huge shock to him. And at the same time, that information frightened him. Because he just learned the existence of people that could reach the Natural Profound Realm at the age of one!

After receiving the answer to his first question, Asil asked his second question: "Master, as you were speaking, you said that if you fought the other main members except for the leader of the family who ruled The Mount Sun, you could defeat them if you paid a price. What happens if you fight the leader of the family?"

After Asil's question, Sirius strangely replied without waiting: "To fight that monster? No man with a brain would do that! Let alone me, even if five people like me attack him at the same time, we can't defeat him! Now, do you understand how dangerous the source of your symbol is? That's why you need to improve quickly! I wouldn't normally tell you this, but after what Nukro said about my brother, I realized I didn't have much time. So I need to get you strong enough to get me out of here as soon as possible. We have to take big risks for this. If you want to take risks and reduce the size of the dangers you will face in the future by strengthening quickly, even if it is dangerous, say so now. Unless you want to get stronger fast..."

"Master just tell me what to do. You helped me get my profound power, and you've made me stronger ever since. And you saved my life today. How can I be afraid to risk it for you when you have done so much for me? Besides, the symbol I have is definitely going to put me in great danger in the future. So I have to get stronger before I face these dangers. Just tell me the method; I'll follow it. What should I do now, master?"

After Asil's resolute and unwavering response, Sirius laughed gently and spoke contentedly. "Hahaha, just as expected from my student. Child take the profound core of the gorilla that Nukro killed and then head for the cave I told you about. It may be a bit risky, but since Black Dragons are, like other dragons, honorable profound monsters, we will not lose anything from trying! You better prepare yourself. Because we're going to do something risky. But if we succeed, the consequences could be very good..."

After Sirius spoke, Asil decisively began to move forward to retrieve the profound core of the Muscular mountain gorilla that Nukro had killed. As he advanced, Sirius sighed in the area where he had been sealed with chains and spoke to himself in such a way that Asil could not hear him: "I wish I could tell you another truth when talking about symbols but I can't do that. If I had told you that, you would certainly have suffered a tremendous shock mentally. Maybe you'll be mad at me for keeping this from you, but I still have no choice but to do it right now. How could I say that to someone like you who looks after the world in such a good way? How could I tell you that the first requirement for someone to have a symbol is that they are not human? Child, I'm sorry, but I'm going to keep the fact that you're not human for a while..."

After Sirius spoke to himself, he closed his eyes and waited for Asil to retrieve the profound core of the Muscular Mountain Gorilla.
