Reborn As Goten - Chapter 38

I don’t know how much time has passed, my training was separate from dad and vegeta’s training. Few days after i started my training dad showed up and with that whis got his hands full, besides my regular training i am still not able to release a single seal.

whis:” so have you completed your task, that was fast. goku is nowhere as gifted as you were”.

‘ thanks whis, but i am still not able to overcome a single seal’.

whis:” That’s because you still have not accepted of what you are”.

i was shocked and asked ‘what do you mean by that’.

whis:” for one to become a true martial artist, one must have control over all the three aspects your soul, body, and mind, when i saw you there is a inconsistency between them, so if you want to open your first seal you need to accept of who and what you are and gain control over yourself”.

I finally understood what he ment, from the very first moment i came into this world. There was feeling inside me that i stole something but when i felt happiness i wanted it, so acted like a person who i never was and i continued it up until know, then suddenly the first seal in my hand started to glow, everything around turned white before me i saw a smaller version of me i knew who he was it was the real goten or what left of his soul. For some reason i felt guilty tears were dropping from my eyes, i closed my eyes because i was unable to face him, a single thought that all this happiness that i got until now was stolen from someone made my heart ache. then i felt a small hand on my head.

soul goten:” it’s fine, you never did anything wrong”.

‘what?”.

soul goten:” you heard me, you didn’t do anything wrong. even though i was not there, i saw and felt everything from you, and i am happy to think my family was in such capable hands.

looking at his bright smile all the worries i had started to dissipate, slowly both of us started talking i opened up all my pent up emotions i had over the time, our conversation went on for hours suddenly he stopped talking, i understood why he did so and said.

soul goten:” yes my time here is over, at first i had some doubts after talking to you everything is gone, now i had no purpose to stay here”.

‘ so that means you will gone now’.

soul goten:”nope, come here i want to show you something”.

suddenly a giant door appeared i looked at him in confusion and asked ‘what is this door’.

soul goten:”when you first came you didn’t just occupied my body, you also devoured my soul with it, but for some some reason my soul didn’t got ȧssimilated with yours, instead this door appeared which acted as barrier between our souls, once this door opens our souls truly become one”.

i went near the door and inspected it and found a small key hole that’s when i finally understood what it was for, i turned towards him and said’ that means you are the key?’.

soul goten:” yes, you are right i am the key, at first i didn’t accept you so i never bothered to appear before you, but now it’s different with this we will truly become one. So are you ready”.

‘yes’ with that his body started to dissipate into light particles and formed into a key in my hands.

i placed the key and turned *CLICK* the giant door finally opened, a massive amount of energy flowed into my body, i slowly opened my eyes everything seems to be moving slow, now i could sense everything around me. This feeling was new to me, i never felt it even after achieving my god form.

i turned around and saw whis, dad, and vegeta, looking at whis i smiled and replied’ yes’.

whis:” so how about we give it a go”.

whis suddenly disappeared from his spot and appeared before me, and his was aimed towards my head, i simply dodged it and punched towards him which was easily deflected by his staff, but a small cut appeared on his face and a drop of blood came from it, for the first time my attack hit him, but the next thing is i found myself in giant crater and everything around me is blur, and with that i lost my consciousness.
