Following the dinner came the time most challengers used to absorb the soul cores they had collected during daytime.
Aito finally absorbed all the human soul cores in his possession, however, he had yet to level up. He could feel his soul eating the others, but it didn't grow larger any longer. It was like his soul was saving up energy for something.
The most annoying was, Aito could feel level 2 was within his reach. He just needed a little extra push. He had his fill for today, though. More and it could become dangerous.
It would take some time before his soul digested the others. So now was not the moment. Tomorrow, however, he would definitely level up. At least he hoped so.
