"I am the master of my body." He stopped the force of natural advancent provided by nature and began to control where and how each thing would be improved. The pain of the process was hellish, but he didn't even blink.
His veins were being shaped to withstand more pressure than if the world had just raised his level naturally. Furthermore, he was making them in directions that would allow for better circulation of total mana.
"It's done." Kayden finished the process stinking because of the amount of impurities his body released. The boy was skinny and did not appear to be in good health.
The boy began to pull all the surrounding mana into him. Slowly, his control expanded more and more. What he was doing was similar to entering the last stage of transcendence, only this ti the amount of mana was even greater than when he was at the eighth rank.
His eyes took on a blue glow and his breath was exuding mana in gaseous form. But the boy still hadn't reached the point he wanted. His instincts were guiding him.
He felt that even with his entire body cracking, he still hadn't gotten to where he wanted to be. The man began to beco unstable for a few dozen ters, almost as if he understood that sothing big was happening.
"More, I want more." Kayden went into an absurd trance. Slowly, his control extended to nearly thirty ters around him. At this range, his mastery over mana was absolute.
CRACK!
Kayden felt sothing break inside him. His entire life was separated into before and after this mont in his mind. He finally understood his path. That was decades ago.
Without him realizing it, this process had already begun in his other life and then in limbo, it was further refined. Those re four years in limbo easily amounted to decades.
If you add it, Kayden could easily achieve a century of productivity in this pursuit. The boy's mind beca calm.
"I am a monarch." Kayden finally understood his life's purpose. He was a king, nothing more. The entire man around the boy seed to bow. It sounded like they were shouting in celebration of the birth of a king.
"Kayden?" David's voice ca through the door. And as soon as Kayden's eyes t David's, the scientist almost had a heart attack. The pressure from the boy and the environnt caused an instinctive fear in David.
It felt like he was facing a living god. His mana bowed to him. His very existence felt wrong in space as if he were sothing ancient and dangerous that shouldn't exist.
In all his life, David had never been so afraid of anything as he was now. He felt tiny, like an ant facing an elephant.
Pooft!
Kayden fell to the ground unconscious. And David finally snapped out of the trance he was in and went to check on the boy. He was in shock to see the boy with sothing similar to the core and knew it was the mana heart they developed in the past.
What he didn't know was that it was no longer a mana heart, but a tyrannical mana heart.
***********
"So it's been three and a half years?" Kayden asked as he devoured so pasta and atballs made by David. The boy had just woken up from another seven days of sleep.
"Yes," David confird Kayden's question. The boy didn't know how long he stayed in there, but he was sure it was much longer than here. Ti probably ran differently there.
Kayden was fascinated by this, the ability to manipulate ti itself.
"What happened in that ti, David?" The boy finally asked the question he had been putting off. The scientist gave a big sigh before continuing.
"The nobleman who did this to you was unhard, his family was too strong for us to do anything. The footage and evidence were buried." Kayden didn't even change his expression, he already expected sothing like this. "The army also broke the contract with you, they ca while you were unconscious."
This Kayden didn't expect, but he didn't care either. After discovering his path, he no longer doubted that he would be able to reach the top in a short ti.
"Astolfo entered one of the most reputable elite colleges in the kingdom and Heir continues to do very well and excel in the matrices field." David had done so research on Kayden's friends to stay inford. "They ca to visit you once every few months."
In short, Kayden didn't miss much.
"One year," Kayden muttered to himself.
"What's a year old, Kayden?" David could hear even though he was short.
"I'm 13 years old, I can still enter the Sol Academy." David remained silent for a mont, not knowing what to say. He didn't expect to hear this and didn't believe at all that there was ti, even though he witnessed that scene seven days ago.
The two didn't discuss anything about it, David understood that it was Kayden's secret.
"Please take to the orphanage, David," Kayden asked, he already had a plan to improve his rank, and that involved using the mana stone from the forest.
"Thank you, Heir." Kayden thanked the boy for taking him to the forest. Luckily, Kayden was lucky enough to wake up in December, and during that ti, his brother was on vacation. This was better than him revealing the secret to soone else.
The boy didn't have ti to have a proper conversation with Han, it seed like the old man was avoiding him. Probably out of sha for not being able to protect Kayden and Ryan or for not being able to even take revenge for them.
The boy also had to invent a miraculous excuse for his cure and he... threw all the responsibility on David. He simply said that the scientist had found an exceptional healer and did not go into further detail.
"I'll be back in a week, Kayden." The boy said after Kayden entered the tree. He still hadn't quite accepted the fact that Kayden spent seven whole days there, isolated. This seed impossible, Heir was sure he would go crazy in this place.
As soon as Kayden entered, he packed all his things and instantly began cultivating. The mana density here was much better than outside, and according to Heir, the stone had returned to almost 100%.
His initial focus was on increasing his rank quickly and then training in life-and-death fights endlessly. This was the best way for him to progress quickly with his new style of mana manipulation.
Kayden began to draw mana towards himself. The boy looked like a vortex sitting on the stone, all the mana in the environnt ca to him naturally, and he had no resistance.
