While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

The Death Wraiths appearance was that of a young girl, but she was very tall and had two small horns sticking out of her heard.

Since she was in a Soul Form, she was obviously floating and her long white hair was flowing behind her, giving her quite a majestic appearance.

If it wasn't for her horns or slightly grey skin, she could be mistaken for a human and what shocked him the most was the fact that she communicated with him.

Wasn't it supposed to be forbidden for those from the underworld to make contact with anyone in the land of the living and if they did, they could be punished greatly for it.

However, looking back at the Death Wraith, as soon as it spoke to Adam, it seemed to instantly realise her mistake.

Despite that, it was overcome with curiosity and couldn't help but continue trying to get Adam to communicate with her.

Since she was in a Soul Form, space itself worked very differently and she began floating around and through Adam, trying to annoy him and get him to respond to her.

Adam gave in to her annoying and desperate nature and was also very curious about the underworld and wanted to speak to her, but before he did, he wanted to make one thing sure.

"Death Wraith. If I speak to you, will our conversation stay a secret between us?" asked Adam, not wanting it to cause him any trouble.

"You finally decided to respond to me. I knew you would be able to hear me and although somehow you are able to hide your Soul Cultivation, I feel danger from you, which I have never felt from a human before" she said as she floated in front of Adam.

The way she acted and her expression was like that of an amazed and curious child, but from her body alone, Adam would estimate that she was roughly his age.

"Our conversation will obviously be a secret, as I will be scolded by my boss if he was to ever find out that I spoke to a living human cultivator, especially one that was a capable Soul Cultivator," the Death Wraith said, clearly intimidated by her boss.

"Alright then, we can talk, but make sure to take care of that soul. It belongs to someone very dear to me" decided Adam.

"I have so many questions. First, what is it like being a human? Why do you have red eyes? How are you so calm? And why do I feel so afraid of you?" she asked.

Hearing all her questions, Adam smiled and she was like an eager child and she also seemed very friendly, which was weird to think about, considering that Death Wraiths were the soul carriers of the dead.

"I will only answer your questions if you answer mine" stated Adam, planning to get as much information as he could out of her, seeing how friendly she was.

In return, he was also willing to give her information as she didn't seem to be a bad individual.

"So, how old are you? What exactly is your role? And how powerful is the underworld?" asked Adam.

"Um, my age. Wait, let me calculate it in human years"

"I am currently around 190 years old according to human years, but in the underworld, I am very young and from what we were taught at school, a more accurate conversion was to divide our age by 10"

Adam was shocked by her answer and the fact that she had lived for 190 years was unbelievable, but from the way she acted, she clearly wasn't very mature and even being 19 years old was slightly unbelievable.

Seeing his shocked expression, she asked, how old he was.

"Your 19, so that means you are around the same age as me," she said, believing that he was using the standards of the underworld to give his age.

Hearing her assumption, Adam couldn't help but laugh and corrected her and told her that he had only lived for a total of 19 years.

She found that weird and shocking, then went on to tell him that even in a hundred human years, creatures in the underworld would still be extremely young children.

One would only be considered an adult at around 200 years and the average lifetime of an ordinary creature was around 1000 years, even if they didn't cultivate much or were unable to.

While those at the peak of the underworld lived for who knew how long and most things about the underworld were unknown to her.

However, she depicted it as a land that was infinitely large and only accessible to those of the underworld and most were employed under the Death Corps, while the rest lived ordinary lives.

The Death Corps had many different branches and she was currently the lowest level Death Wraith, sent only to collect the weakest of souls that wouldn't resist being taken to the underworld.

This was the first time she was given an interesting mission as Adam's master had been resisting death for many years and now that he had died, there could be something dangerous or unusual about his death.

However, she never expected to come across a young Soul Cultivator that was very interesting, but also quite friendly and easy to talk to.

Weirdly, Adam was just seeing her as a new person to talk to and without realising it, they ended up talking to each other for over an hour and both of them had become very comfortable talking to each other.

While talking to her, Adam carried his master's body outside of the secret lair and made sure that the secret lair was secure before digging a hole to bury his master.

He wanted to bury his master close to the secret lair, that way, Adam and any others that passed his memorial, could pay their respects to him.

After he finished burying his master's body, it was clear to him that the Death Wraith needed to return.
