Chapter 266: Becoming The Only Inheritor Of The Heart Of Hope ----- I slowly opened my eyes again, finding myself resting my head over the Heavenly Empress thighs. It seems I was somewhat asleep, yet not, and the things I saw were sort of a dream, where I could feel I was there, but they were also her memories, how odd. “You seem to be finally awake; how do you feel, Anna?” The empress looked at me with her golden eyes. “Um, a bit sleepy now…” I sighed, slowly sitting down and stretching my arms. “But fine… Err, those dreams I saw—were they really your memories? I think we were talking a bit before, and then I just… fell asleep?” “Indeed, they were my memories,” she nodded. “They’re also part of my Heart of Hope. You see, as it grows and develops, the memories you hold dearest will become their foundation; those memories where you achieved the greatest amount of Hope, they all become imprinted, strengthening your Heart of Hope.” “So is that how it is cultivated, I wonder?” I asked. “Sort of, it is part of its cultivation,” she nodded. “However, you require more than that to completely strengthen it. Did you see what it could be done with it?” “Yes, you used it to materialize it into things—a shield, a naginata, even a pole—ah right, it even strengthened your body and healed it!” I said. “Indeed! Those are all the powers of Hope,” she smiled. “The power of Hope is born from people, meaning that it is born from their very lifeforce. Therefore, the power of Hope can heal wounds and also recreate items and weapons wielded by the people. A mighty shield, a sharp naginata, a strong pole, armor, any of such things—anything man-made can be created and materialized, made completely real. Of course, only temporarily, usually.” “Amazing…” Remembering that dream, those memories of her I experienced, she was really badass even as a young white crane girl. Her ability with Hope was flawless; she was really talented, especially at materializing the power into shields and weapons. Do I even have an ability or power like that? I guess the Skills that can manifest a weapon perhaps. I wouldn’t consider the Death Apostles turning into things as a power that’s mine either. But yeah, Hope is definitely its own amazing thing, and that’s totally fine too. I feel like if I could truly harbor it in my own self, I could be able to accomplish tremendous new things, amazing things. Especially on improving my own Martial Arts, the Myriad Self Martial Arts, or well, that’s the name for now; I could change it later, perhaps. “Though I have to apologize for showing you my memories like that... It might have come as selfish, thinking that I am high and mighty enough to show you them as if they were an example to follow,” she sighed. “I apologize in that regard.” “What? No, there’s nothing to apologize, please!” I said. “It was amazing, honestly, and I really kind of understood a bit more how to use that power… I kind of feel something weird inside of me since I woke up too… Is this…?” “Yeah, Hope is already blooming within your heart,” she nodded. “The moment you drank the tea imbued with Hope, you already started to assimilate it. However, I had thought it would take a very long time because you had already chosen the elements of darkness and light and even had a Martial Core already… But I was wrong. Your Spiritual Body is incredible, capable of assimilating all kinds of Martial Arts and Spiritual Arts with ease. Hope is a combination of both of them, yet your heart is already absorbing it, slowly gathering more of it.” “I-It already started? Holy sh*t, it was much nicer than the cursed seals…” I sighed in relief. “Hmm, what did that barbarian do to you?” she sighed. “I hope he didn’t beat you or something…” “W-Well, he drugged me and forced me to remember horrible memories to trigger my negative emotions…” I said. “Hah, of course he did!” She sighed, facepalming. “I’m very sorry if that happened to you and you were somewhat… Well, traumatized by his ways.
