Chapter 575: Dumpy’s Training (1)
After just one session with the marrow ditation manual, Leo gained significant insight into the technique.
Although it wasn’t as ntally demanding as the mind ditation manual, it was incredibly strenuous in other ways.
The practice of the manual demanded imnse patience, precise mana control, and unwavering consistency and while these factors didn’t actively tax his mind as much, they still posed a considerable challenge to maintain over ti.
After just one session, Leo realized that it was going to take him several years at minimum to fully master the marrow ditation manual, as even if he could generate enough cells to et his body’s replacent rate today, it would still take another year of rigorous practice to perfect the thod.
Moreover, reaching the cellular replacent rate itself was a long and arduous process and for now at least it was a goal way out of his current reach.
“Unless I have so sudden enlightennt which increases the speed of my practice significantly…. The chances of mastering this thod before we land on planet Terra Nova is 0%” Leo muttered to himself as he realized that hoping to master the thod before they landed on planet Terra Nova was not going to be possible.
Secretly, he was hoping to beco a Grandmaster warrior before they reached planet Terra Nova, however, after practicing the marrow ditation manual once, reaching this goal seed easier said than done.
Nonetheless, having an impossible target to work towards was a rewarding experience in its own right, as if it was easy to beco a Grandmaster, there would be many warriors in the universe reaching that threshold, but the fact that Grandmasters were rare ant that reaching that stage was undoubtedly a very difficult endeavor.
“Whatever happens happens…. I’ll just work consistently on this manual, 6 hours everyday from now onwards” Leo decided, as he closed the ditation manual for today and decided to log into the ga, to carry on with his mandatory frog training session.

As Leo logged back into the ga, he found dumpy sitting in the sa spot on his work desk where he left him as if it had not even moved a single inch in his absence.
The only reaction that the frog had to seeing Leo co back was to croak once, after which it went back to staring at him in complete silence.
For a mont Leo blinked looking at the frog, wondering if he was seriously going to tell it stories of his own valor? But then after spending a few monts of awkward silence staring into the frogs eyes, Leo let out a deep sigh and decided to go ahead with the frogs training no matter how ridiculous it seed.
“Alright Dumpy….today is the first day of your training, so let make things crystal clear for you–” Leo began, as he pointed his finger towards the frog, who kept staring at it with no other reaction.
“You have to gain my acknowledgent to take you seriously. Because until you do, you’re nothing to .
You are lucky enough to be born in my house, so I’ll always feed you and put a roof over your head, but for to love you like a pet, you must show potential! Do you understand?” Leo asked, as Dumpy simply kept staring towards him silently.
“You know, my very first day in this world…. As a new adventurer, I walked in alone into a den of wolves.
Everyone else began teaming up together, looking for weapons, looking for ways to increase their stats, but nobody had the balls to fight them wolves.
But not your old man here…. Because I had the balls to face the ferocious wolf pack!” Leo said, as he decided to tell Dumpy the tale of his first day in the ga as his first adventure story.
“I killed a few scouting wolves and rushed into the den, sliding down the dangerous air shaft in pitch black darkness.
It was a very dangerous mission, one where I could have died at any point, but I never let such problems stop .
I created light in the darkness and used all the strength in my body to find a way to kill dozens of wolves.
I must be no older than you. Just a few hours in this world and I was already strong enough to kill dozens of wolves.
Can you kill dozens of wolves, Dumpy? Can you? Can you even kill a fly?” Leo asked aggressively, as he exaggerated his past accomplishnts and portrayed them in a way that was not objectively true, but not completely false either.
He had indeed used all the strength in his body to break rocks and seal the oxygen airway to the main chamber killing dozens of wolves, however, the way he said it made it seems like he had defeated them in a physical fight, which was untrue.
Nonetheless, Leo did not care for such details as he kept boasting in front of Dumpy while also berating it for being useless.
“You’re lucky you were born in my house and not in a wild swamp.
Because I was born with a life threatening condition hanging over my head.
If anyone else proved to be better than , they would have killed on day1, but I never let it happen.
I was always number 1 Dumpy, I was always the strongest.
What are you compared to ?
What can you do?
Co on? Have the balls to say sothing!” Leo demanded, as Dumpy kept blinking as he listened to his story but said nothing.
” ”
“Nothing? You have nothing to say? Well alright, that’s what I thought kid. Better keep your mouth shut before ‘TheBoss’, because he ain’t taking shit from a newborn.
You haven’t earned the right to speak before , and hence you will remain silent, get it?
You will earn the right to speak only after you kill a bunch of wolves for –” Leo said, as he set unrealistic expectations for Dumpy to achieve.
“We will go down now, and I will match you up against a newborn snake.
Don’t disappoint dumpy. Kill that fucking snake.
It’s a dog eat dog world here and you’re the big dog.
You understand? You’re the big dog here you stupid frog” Leo said, as he stared deep into Dumpy’s unblinking eyes with aggression evident in his gaze.
