2 month after that...
After Yoon Murasaki's departure, I was finally able to focus on my training like before.
"Haak... haak!"
Today I was practicing as usual. Swinging the sword at a height almost as tall as myself.
"Haak!"
After finishing the last swing, I fell to the floor. And let out a long sigh.
"Hehehe, I was finally able to finish this annoying exercise."
Over the past few months I've been doing a lot of training and there's one exercise that I've found particularly difficult to complete, which is swinging the sword 1000 tis.
It might have been easy if I had a normal body, but my illness made several tis weaker than I should have been. Even the portion of training used should be equivalent to an early knight but my strength can't even touch an apprentice knight.
"Even so I didn't expect my growth to be this fast. But that ans I've reached my limit."
Every living thing has a limit to each talent they can grow and I used to stop at rank S on every stat I had.
But if my growth stopped at rank S, then there was no way I could survive until the end of episode 1. During the ti I was stuck at S rank, I found many ways to increase my limits.
Actually, I've been doing it since regression, because this technique is getting younger and more effective and can only be used by people with a deford body condition like mine and an extraordinary pain tolerance.
The thod is muscle compression...
As the na suggests, the thod is to compress the muscles into a very dense state.
It's as simple as exercising as much as possible to produce muscles, but how can a child's body produce as many muscles as teenagers and adults. That's where my disease ca into play, by making my body weaker than normal several tis over, it actually opened up a lot of space for my body to grow.
In essence, my body can be compared to a balloon. When blowing up a balloon, a deflated balloon requires a gust of air to enter the air into the balloon and it can be analogized as an exercise and when the air enters, it makes the balloon expand indefinitely but if it is too much it will also make burst and die.
As for the normal body, it can be analogized to a container that has a clear limit that can be accommodated by the container. So there will be no side effects like .
Although it sounds like my condition is a blessing, it's actually not because I need more hard work to catch up with others plus the more I try to be strong the more pain I receive from training.
In addition, balloons are very sensitive and break easily, aning I'm very vulnerable to destruction and that's my disease, although it's not suitable to be called a disease but more like a different body condition. If I try too hard, not only my body but also my life energy will be drained.
For example like a week ago, I had vomited blood because the sudden developnt process made my body break down, if I hadn't taken my life energy to heal the wounds of my internal organs I would have been dying.
Because of the condition of my body, I experienced many problems in episode 1 such as difficulty adapting, feeling inferior and even despairing at that ti.
After that process, the compression process began by applying compression to the body. After that I created a new container to improve myself again but to get a new container I need to do taboo things first.
At least for now I need to focus on enhancing my body until it's very strong.
I only found out about my body a few years ago, and I couldn't make the most of it.
But I've returned, even back when I was just awakening this body condition.
With this I can beco very strong and even much stronger than before.
(Ah, I haven't seen my stat in a long ti.)
Instantly a blue monitor screen appeared in front of my eyes showing my current stats.

"Woah..."
I was surprised by my stat increasing so high beyond what I expected.
(But this stat is far from what I want to pursue, I need to be even stronger if I want to fight my enemies in the future.)
I need to get stronger, so I'll do whatever it takes to get stronger...
...
After that I went to visit the headquarters of my organization, Umbra Vitae.
I entered a narrow alley and looked around. After feeling that no one was around, I channeled mana into the wall and the basent opened up imdiately.
I then descended the stairs and opened the door.
"Hm? Ah! Good evening, Mr. Ravendor!"
Johan, who was playing chess with soone, imdiately turned around and greeted with a face like a dog that was happy to have its owner ho.
"Hello boss~"
Then the person in front of Johan also greeted .
I approached the person, the shadow covering the person disappeared and revealed a girl with purple hair and pointed ears. A half Dwarf and an Elf. Frum, the third mber of Umbra Vitae and the one who takes care of research and equipnt and research.
As a half year born of two hostile races, Elves and Dwarves, Frum was not accepted by the Elves or Dwarves, even the family mbers who protected him died at the hands of the Empire a while ago and living as a jara rod made Frum live in difficulty plus he was chased by the Empire.
Even so it seed that he managed to escape the pursuit of the Empire but unfortunately it was only after leaving the imperial territory that he was caught with a slave trader.
Fortunately, I had gotten information from Esie about the transaction that was about to happen, so I was able to save this man.
But it's strange that he wanted to beco my mber even before I asked. It seed like he was attracted to the cognitive mask I was wearing. Although I included him out of pity for him who was holess but it seed like it was the right decision, after all he made many useful discoveries for .
So over ti I unknowingly relied on her to make the tools I needed.
I then placed a stack of papers in front of Frum's eyes.
"Boss? What's this stack of papers?"
"Your next assignnt."
"...Isn't the boss getting aner these days?"
"Really?"
"Yes! The boss has been asking to take care of a lot of work lately!"
"But you like making new things, don't you?"
"I-it's..."
"Then there's no problem."
"Kh..."
Frum looked frustrated but he couldn't reply to my words.
"Where's Mikhael by the way?"
"He's at his usual place."
"The bar?"
"Yes, as usual. He's looking for the latest information on his missing sister."
Mikhael, a gray-haired man with brownish skin typical of the desert people. I t him at a bar and for so reason, I promised to help find his sister and in return he would join my organization.
Well, basically he was the fourth mber of Umbra Vitae. Her position is in combat especially ranged combat because her skill is stealthy archery like an assassin.
"What if Mikhail isn't around, but the other mbers are?"
"If the other mbers are there, they are taking care of the children."
"I see, we'll have a eting in three hours. Johan, tell Mikhael to return to headquarters imdiately. My orders."
"Understand, I'll leave!"
With that Johan went outside like a puppy obeying its master.
(What is this strange feeling? Did I ta a Hero?)
Although Johan is my student, it doesn't change the fact that Johan was a Hero in episode 1 and such a great person obeyed my orders.
(If 'She' was here, I would have been berated.)
I then entered the children's room and found that the lights were not off.
(Haa...)
I then opened the door and yelled at everyone there.
"How many tis have I told you, it's past curfew. The kids need to go to bed."
The kids were surprised by my appearance and imdiately got into their blankets and pretended to be asleep.
"And you two don't have to pretend to be asleep either."
I approached the two people hiding in the blanket. I pulled the blanket violently and took out two blue-haired girls who were very indigenous. Yes, they are twins.
The nas of these twins are Erina and Erica.
Just like Frum, both of them I rescued during the slave trade along with Frum. Both of them were victims of the war from the neighboring country. But unlike Frum, both of them have learned to fight since childhood making them very adept at fighting and even overwhelming Johan. And just like Frum I decided to help them by accepting them into my organization.
And just like Frum, they are also very talented in their own way. Both of them are very good at fighting in groups and even their coordination is very good plus both of them can do various things.
"Is that person here?"
When I asked about that person, the two looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Frum said that that person is also here. Well, she doesn't get along with children either. I'll go look for him first, you guys gather in the main room right away. There's sothing I want to talk about."
I then left the room and headed sowhere.
