Chapter 281 Soulscape

At the Black Heart.

"Let's set sail!" Mars bellowed loudly and pulled out the anchor from the water with his bare hands.

"Captain, Ambrose hadn't arrived yet." Apollo said with a cup of unfinished coffee in his hand.

He managed to find one cafe that wasn't closed and ordered a fresh cup of coffee, but while he was drinking, he was summoned back to Black Heart with the contract spell.

"He ain't traveling with us." Mars said and crossed his arms. "He'll meet us in there."

"Huh?" Others looked at each other in confusion.

"Where are we going?" Leon asked from the helm.

"To Sea King's Island!" Mars shouted.

An eerie silence fell on the ship as everyone heard those words.

"Shit..." Apollo muttered under his breath. "Suicide..."

"Get on it!" Mars shouted at Leon after seeing him not do anything.

"Aye aye..." Leon turned the helm and started the voyage.

However, he was thinking about what the hell happened after he left Ambrose. He still hoped he was still alive, as this could mean that Mars simply didn't want to mention killing him.

Henri stood beside Loki and whispered.

"You think he is dead?"

"Don't know..." Loki sighed. "If he doesn't come to the Sea King's Island, Mars can easily cook up a story about how he must've encountered some trouble."

"I don't see him as a guy who would lie about such a matter." Henri frowned. "Mars likes to keep us in order with fear."

"I really don't know." Loki sighed.

...

On the deck of the Slash Pirates ship.

"Welcome on board~" Adam stepped on the deck, and following him, Ambrose also stepped on board and saw the crew members of the pirate ship preparing to leave the island.

He then looked up at the middle mast and saw the skull and crossbones flag with both eyes slashed blind.

"Captain, who is 'dis?" A nasty-looking pirate asked. Half of his face looked like it was cracked like a stone, and his eye was missing.

"This is Ambrose." Adam smiled and introduced the young man to the rest of the crew. "He'll travel with us to the Sea King's Island."

The pirates began whispering with each other, surprised but with a hint of suspiciousness in their eyes.

"This guy is Reinhardt's disciple? I can't see it..."

"I do feel a little bit intimidated, but it's very faint. Is he even strong?"

"Right, he is Reinhardt's disciple, but he might be hopeless when it comes to teaching. He might be super weak."

Ignoring his crew's whispers, Adam said. "Set the destination to Sea King's Island. We need to get there as soon as possible."

"Aye, aye, captain!" The crew shouted and started doing their tasks to get the ship moving as soon as possible.

"Let's go to my cabin. There is something I want to show you." Adam said to Ambrose while blindly trying to look at him, and then began walking towards the cabin while humming a song.

Ambrose followed right behind, and soon they entered a cozy cabin with a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Adam plopped down on his soft-cushioned chair and pointed at the couch that was under a window and beside a small table with a lamp.

"Sit there."

Ambrose sat down and crossed his legs while looking around the cabin. He was still very suspicious of Adam's intentions.

He couldn't shake off the feeling that he was planning something malicious.

"Let's play a game, shall we?" Adam opened a drawer and blindly rummaged through it until he felt something familiar. "This is an old game that swordsmen have been playing together."

"Huh?" Ambrose peeked over the desk, trying to catch a glimpse of this so-called game.

Adam soon revealed the so-called "game" and it was two inhalers.

"Inhaler?" Ambrose looked at the blind-eyed man and asked. "What the hell?"

"This is a game that happens in Soulscape." Adam smiled. "It is even further inside the Soul World, and in Soulscape, your soul cannot be harmed. It's basically the same as a dream, but there you can control your soul.

"These two inhalers are injected with a very high dose of a powerful sedative that will put you into a deep sleep. This is something that you can only find in Dark Waters.

"It's called Siren Sedative. They use the same stuff to put their victims to sleep once they lure them with their singing.

"Once we both inhale this stuff, we fall asleep and appear in our soul forms in Soulscape.

"There, we can start our little game."

"Not going to lie, this sounds very suspicious." Ambrose said without hiding his carefulness.

"Everyone says the same when they first try it." Adam said with a chuckle. "It's a game as old as time. Many martial arts schools use this kind of training, as you cannot get hurt doing this."

Ambrose accepted the second inhaler and sniffed it slightly. He immediately smelled the strong sedative, which actually smelled nice to him.

"It smelled good, right?" Adam laughed. "It smells like siren's. I had the pleasure of sleeping with one of them, and it was good and all until she turned into a monster and tried to eat me."

"Interesting story." Ambrose spoke with a hint of joking and turned to the blind-eyed man. "So, just inhale?"

"That's right." Adam nodded.

"What'll we do in Soulscape then?" Ambrose asked.

"I'll tell you there." Adam put the inhaler against his lips and took a long breath, inhaling the strong sedative.

He leaned against the chair, closed his eyes, and his arms limply hung at his sides. The grasp over his inhaler loosened, causing it to fall to the ground.

After seeing him fall asleep, Ambrose turned to the inhaler and shrugged his shoulders.

He then put it against his lips, took a long drag, and felt the sedatives take control over him.

...

"Ahh..." Ambrose opened his eyes and felt like he was floating on a cloud.

However, when he turned around, he saw that he was lying on top of a transparent lake. He could see his soul reflection, and when he tried touching the water, his hand went straight through, and it didn't even feel like his hand got drenched.

After floating slightly up and turning around, he saw a transparent sky, blue clouds that weren't moving, and a bright blue sun.

As he admired the sight, he suddenly felt a touch on his shoulder, and when he turned around, he saw Adam in his soul form with his two eyes intact.

"You can speak, I assume." Adam said with an echoing voice.

"I can..." Ambrose said, his voice also echoing like he was talking inside a tunnel. "You are not blind here."

"Yeah, Soul World and Soulscape are the only places where I can see properly." Adam said and then mentioned. "I can also see in the outside world, but I use my Soul Ability to do so.

"My Soul Ability allows me to use my soul's eyes to see. It's like this ability was tailor-made for me. However, I can only see everything in dark blue or light blue. Sometimes, it gets hard to distinguish between two objects if the colors are close to the same."

"I see..." Ambrose thought it was very fascinating and then asked. "What now?"

"We'll create our playground." Adam said with a smile.

This was his favorite part of being in Soulscape.

The souls in Soulscape have unlimited freedom of creation.
