YM778.TV Chapter 10: Rigorous Training I
"Tron! I saw Kane leave just now, what did he come to do again?!" Sethra rushed in and asked anxiously.
Tron forced a smile. When he saw Kane and the others pass through his door, he had put on an act until they left but his hands and feet were still a bit numb. He wiped off the beads of sweat on his forehead.
"Tron, what happened?" Sethra anxiously asked.
Tron briefly explained what had happened. As Sethra heard this, her face filled with horror. She never imagined that the situation was so dangerous just now. But then she spoke words that nearly angered Tron to death.
"It\'s a good thing you almost died yesterday and have no Arcana Cortex. It\'s already difficult for you to kill a chicken at this state so it\'s impossible for you to be the murderer. If it weren\'t for your condition things would really be troublesome!"
Tron glared and pointed at her, speechless. "Damned Old fogey!"
Sethra giggled at Tron\'s expression. "I caught a wild rabbit this morning. Luckily Kane was too busy to notice the smell when I stewed it. I will bring you half a pot."
Her pony tail swing side to side as she walked to the door, and said, "Oh, that\'s right. I finished your assignments for today so you don\'t need to worry about being punished later."
As Tron watched Sethra leave, his heart warmed. He had a deep understanding of just how difficult it was to survive in the servant\'s manor.
The servants don\'t get paid at all. The academy only gives them a place to stay, food once a day, and hope that they could become a mage after passing the entrance test.
When he ate the last of the soup and put down the bowl, a warm feeling rose up from his stomach, making him feel much better.
Sethra had already left. She was only a 1-star talent which is the lowest talent out there. Their cortex could control mana, but their pull to mana was extremely weak. However, she meditated constantly and for many decades. Yet, she was only able to activate 20% of her Arcane Cortex.
Which showed just how difficult it was to become a mage without talent.
Before she left, she even assisted him in placing the door back on its hinges.
After Tron cleaned up, he sat cross-legged on his bed. He remembered the notification he received when he had been caught off guard and attacked by Jason.
〘Zero mage:■■■■■■□□□□ 60%, +30 Limit points〙
The attack directly increased the bar by 30 percent!
"Two more attacks and I should be able to match a Zero-mage."
However, Tron shook his head. \'It\'s not that simple.\'
Once he got attacked and luckily didn\'t get killed, of course, he would get stronger after healing as his muscles would adapt to the force and evolve his body to the same level of force that injured him...
However, he only possesses incredible adaptation powers, not regenerative power.

...
"My stats have all increased by 3 points again."
Tron\'s eyes glowed with an intense light. He wanted to see the changes his body would undergo once he reached 100% ᴄᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ!
By then, he would be able to kill Kane even more smoothly. But for now, he needed to do more push-ups and sit-ups! With the x2 reward from the daily quest, he would do half the work for twice the result.
Gazing up at the notification, that had appeared at one point.
[Ding! Daily Quest updated!!!]

〘300 Sit Ups (0/300) inComplete〙
〘30 kilometers (0/30) incomplete〙
[Punishment: DEATH!]
...
Of course, the punishment was still death.
Tron didn\'t try to check the crystal out this time but immediately started his daily push up. It was highly likely he had been swept of any suspicion but he didn\'t want to risk it.
"One!"
"Two!"
"Three...!"
He ascended and descended from his slant position 220 times before he reached the limit but then, he continued!
[+ 0.01 strength]
This continued for about 3 hours before Tron decided to take a break.
It was 12 pm, noon.
His arms were currently shaking and spamming and he felt even his adaptive muscle were already reaching their limit.
[+1.1 strength]
Tron was surprised. Without the double x2 stats from the system, he was actually able to gain 1 Stat point!
Tron immediately knew there was hope for him to survive.
His stomach rumbled once more and he knew he was hungry again. It was to be expected, the chicken he had consumed early had been converted to 1 stat points of strength.
Now that his strength had increased, it wouldn\'t be much of a surprise if he possessed the appetite of 3 to 4 men.
Bandaging his entire body, including his face, Tron then proceeded to rub a few smelly herbs on his body.
At this moment, he looked and smelled as though he was one foot into the grave. It was as if a single push would immediately kill him.
