Adam was the furthest thing from similar to her uncle in her mind, which was why Shinka began to laugh after he compared Adam to a younger version of himself.
"Why are you laughing?"
"You are nothing like him. He is reckless, free and adventurous, while you are the complete opposite,"
Her uncle began telling her about times when he was younger and climbed his way up the rankings of the Death Corps and some of the adventures he had in the underworld.
It was the first time he spoke to her so casually ever since she had joined the Death Corps, and just like Adam said, he truly was a kind person.
"Anyway uncle, I will be going to training and Adam said that you were a big baby that only acts scary, and I am starting to agree,"
"I am not. That little rascal, I need to teach him some more respect,"
Shinka had only seen him act that way towards her and it seemed as though he truly did like Adam.
"That weakling is in way over his head and has no idea who he is dealing with. You can continue to be his friends and he is quite special, but he is still nothing compared to you, the hope of a God Clan,"
"Adam believed in me and I believe in him. We will see about whether or not he can be compared to me and so far, he seems to be on par with me if not even stronger,"
Her uncle smiled to himself after hearing that and wanted to look into and monitor Adam more.
As soon as Shinka left, using his soul monitoring network, he was shocked and confused to find that Adam's soul had seemingly vanished.
However, that wasn't the case and Adam had merely returned to his Physical Form, in which he was undetected by the soul monitoring network that would monitor souls that weren't connected to or didn't have a physical form.
He was intrigued by it and knew that there was more to Adam than what he had seen, and Shinka definitely knew much more about him than he did, but he had many other things to do, so he decided not to look into it any further.
At that moment, it was best to avoid doing anything else and leave both Shinka and Adam be.
However, Adam had definitely caught his eye and he couldn't help but feel as though it wasn't the last time they were going to meet.
Shinka entered a reclusive retreat in which she focused on herself and mastering her horns, wanting to become as powerful as she could and understand herself more.
Meanwhile, Adam had already begun continuing his journey in search of his aunt.
He had received quite a lot of information from Nathaniel about all her movements over the past year, and he was planning on following them all.
Obviously, he wasn't planning on spending an entire year doing so, but he wanted to see for himself everything that had supposedly occurred and find any information about her along the way, while having an interesting adventure across the world.
The time for enjoying himself and relaxing was over and he had completed his side of the favour for Nathaniel, so he had nothing else to wait for and began moving towards the port.
From it, he was planning on hiding within a large ship that was heading over to Europe and in that time, he wanted to train and hunt in the dungeons as much as he could.
He needed to get stronger and when faced with the Evil Soul and then Shinka's uncle, Adam was once again reminded that his power still wasn't enough.
His opponents and dangers were only going to get stronger from there on out and if he truly wanted to save his aunt, he knew that was the only way forward.
Getting onto a ship and hiding within a giant shipping container, Adam had enough room to move around quite freely, and was mostly planning on spending his time in the dungeons.
He had an abundance of food within his inventory along with being able to last months without food if he needed to, so he entered the dungeon without anything to worry about.
[Ava, if anyone approaches my body or the shipping container while I am in the dungeon, please alert me]
{Okay, I will do so. Just hunt to your heart's content and your next mission is to bring back the gemstone that the Orcs stole and use it to solve the mystery of the Explosive Volcano}
Hearing that, Adam was intrigued and entered the Physical Dungeon as he began to complete his mission while hunting Orcs and trying his best to keep other innocent creatures within the dungeon safe.
Alternating between reality, the Soul Dungeon and the Physical Dungeon, time flew by and before he knew it, Adam had already made a lot of progress and reached his destination.
Europe
Picking up languages was easy for Adam with the Mind Ring along with his natural perceptivity and intellect, and he spent most of his time travelling, exploring and hunting in the dungeon.
That was because he hadn't reached his targeted location yet and was also wasn't looking to face any more powerful cultivators on the Top Cultivator Ranking.
He needed to make the most of his time, while also wanting to lay low along his travels, not wanting anyone to connect him to his aunt.
Along his travels, Adam observed many different cultures and ate all types of food, while also being amazed by the different cultivators that he had.
There were so many methods of cultivation, training and combat, that it was always intriguing for Adam to watch them, but he didn't engage in any combat for himself.
It was because he was merely planning on passing by and his real destination was Russia.
From Nathaniel's information, Russia, China and the US had the largest amount of cultivators and cultivation power in the world, while all countries were still subservient to the ancients.
Meaning that he could have the most fun in Russia and face more powerful cultivators, while finding any more information and traces that his aunt may have left behind.
