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

Chapter 219 - Returning To Brooklyn



After 4 hours of sitting in the lotus position and using the Ethereal Recovery Skill, Adam felt that he was mostly recovered from the backlash and was amazed by how quick he was able to do so.

It was all thanks to his incredible body and the incredible Ethereal Recovery Skill. 

​​

Although he had recovered his HP back to its peak within less than an hour of cultivating the Ethereal Recovery Skill, Adam's energy storages and body were still in shambles and needed more time to recover.

The entire time he could feel two pairs of eyes glued onto him and Angela and Wayde were amazed by what they were witnessing as they saw Adam's wounds heal within a few hours.

They didn't want to distract or disturb him and continued to watch him as hours passed without them even realising, since they were more focused on watching Adam.

"Thanks for the assistance and protection while I was recovering" thanked Adam as he jumped up and began stretching his body that was still sore all over and aching, but was much less painful than it was before.

"Have you recovered already?" asked Angela as she checked his body to see if there were any wounds.

To her surprise, there weren't even any scars left on his body and he seemed as good as new.

If his clothes weren't ripped and his hair wasn't messed up, she would have never imagined that he just took part in an incredible battle between cultivators.

"No I haven't recovered and still have some internal injuries and pain all around my body, but I have regained my energy and will recover slowly over the next few days" answered Adam, who didn't want to shock them too much with his recovery speed.

In reality, he was mostly recovered and although his entire body was in slight pain, it would diminish slowly over time and the backlash he suffered from the Bloodlust Characteristic would slowly disappear as he trained and got stronger.

His body had returned to its previous muscular state and Angela couldn't help but stare shortly at his body that looked perfect, but soon turned away realising that she was staring.

Adam noticed it but ignored her as he took off the hoodie and shirt that he was wearing, which were torn apart and no longer wearable, then sat down at the table that Angela and Wayde had eaten at.

Even after all the sugar water he drank and all the jerky that he ate, Adam still felt hungry and most of what he had eaten had been used to help recover his body, which still needed more food and rest to recover completely.

Before sitting down, Adam asked, "Do you mind?"

There was still lots of food that Angela and Wayde had left and hadn't been able to finish, but for the two of them who had never had to ever worry or think about money, they would never eat their own leftovers, let alone that of others.

Both of them shrugged and didn't care if he ate what they left, which was a lot of food, but they thought that it was beneath Adam to eat leftovers, especially since it wasn't even high-quality food.

"If you want money or want us to order you food, we can do that. Or we can take you to a nice place to eat" offered Angela.

"Why? There is food here and I am sure it is enough for me" asked Adam.

"Well, the food has been sitting there for a while and I just wanted to let you know that money isn't a problem" answered Angela.

Adam smiled and thanked her for her kindness, but reassured her that he was fine with the food that was there.

Remembering when he had to skip meals and eat canned food just so that he could pay his aunt's medical bills, Adam wouldn't complain about most things and could live with very minimal things.

Adam also thought about all the others that were still in the situation he was in or worse, and all the famine around the world, so even if he had money and the means to do as he pleased, he still felt that wasting food was pointless and immoral.

The food despite being low-quality in Angela and Wayde's eyes, was tasty as Adam began wolfing it down without stopping, still feeling hungry.

Adam ate everything that hadn't been touched by Wayde and Angela, as even if he didn't want to waste, he didn't want to eat what they had touched and left behind.

After that, he let out a loud burp and had a satisfied expression as he held his belly that was filled with food.

"Thanks for the food" thanked Adam as he quickly cleaned the table and threw what was left in the trash.

"Should we leave?" suggested Adam after giving the room they were staying in a quick clean.

"Why did you clean up? That's the cleaner's job" asked Angela, who was confused by Adam's actions.

She couldn't tell whether he was a good or bad person and whether he cared about others or not, but what she did know was that he helped her and she was planning on returning the favour.

"Leaving less mess behind for the cleaner. I am sure whoever the cleaner is will appreciate it and already has a lot on their plate" answered Adam.

Angela and Wayde were surprised, confused and pleased by his answer, but decided not to say anything about it.

They couldn't completely relate to his reasoning and actions, but could see where he was coming from and knew that there was kindness in his heart.

"Are you planning on returning to Brooklyn?" asked Wayde.

"Yup, I have no reason to stay here. What I came here to do has been completed" answered Adam.

"But before then, we need to get you a shirt," said Angela who was blushing slightly, seeing Adam shirtless.
