"Paskha, are you awake now?"
Paskha blinked a few times and realized his friends yet to finish the awakening process. "Master, they still haven't finished?" Paskha thought at least one would be here after waking up.
"The shadow power is based on the soul form, which differs from other power attributes. A soul form already exists within us, but awakening and using it requires a tough, lengthy process. The higher the level of a soul form, the longer the process."
Since Paskha had a tier-three soul form, he was the quickest to complete the process. Additionally, his soul form was a materialized one, so there was no need for adjustments in fusion.
Either way, this was a great opportunity for him.
Paskha rose to his feet and clutched his teacher's neck tightly without warning. He buried his face on his teacher's shoulder, and his tears fell unnoticed.
