/Growth!/
With a muffled explosion, Testros’ chest rumbled with energy as a drop of blood fell from his lips…
His expression contorted as ache overtook his physique, however he saved his cool, controlling his energies, feeling their energy, consistency, density, and purity.
Harmonizing them individually, he gathered them, channeling them in the direction of his coronary heart.
Often, as he instructed Dale earlier than, to succeed by this course of, dozens of years of coaching and expertise could be wanted to boost their management, energy, sturdiness, and extra, all for the sake of dwelling by this ugly, unnatural course of, turning what was an impossibility right into a streamlined, considerably clean course of.
However proper now, he had no such time, he wouldn’t undergo all of his previous once more, to succeed, he wanted to utilize the only trait that got here again with him:
His management, the reminiscences of a future him.
He wanted a stage of management in contrast to any earlier than. If he wished to do what his coronary heart instructed him to, success was all.
His preparations had been accomplished, he fought dozens of beasts, feeling his weak and pitiful Mana course by his veins with every strike, his Vitality stirring as blood splashed throughout his face…
This international feeling to his flesh had now been considerably accepted, and amidst the belief of the influence his actions had brought on, he knew it was time to place every thing he gathered into motion.
His physique had by no means dealt with Mana correctly at this age and now, it was being compelled to deal with these chaotic forces…
In reality, amidst every thing that would go mistaken, there was an excellent higher factor standing in his approach…
Did he even have sufficient Mana to complete this course of?
/Growth…/
It did not appear to matter to Testros that the percentages had been in opposition to him as with each minute, his coronary heart rumbled with energy, shaking his environment as waves of Mana poured inside his pores from the air round him.
/Bleed…/
His eyes started to bleed as his vessels ruptured, his pores and skin swelled as his flesh trembled…
However deep down, his coronary heart appeared to be…
/BOOOM!/
One final explosion, blasting the bottom and every thing else round him.
“Arg… Huff… Huff…”
/Shine…/
A faint, nearly unnoticeable mild shone near the middle of his chest, a small seed, the delivery of a brand new physique, a brand new self.
‘… I did it… To suppose it was so easy… Perhaps it is as a result of I am younger.’
The present Testros was however 16 years of age, with such a youthful physique that skilled bodily ever since he was a small little one in a Mana-Wealthy setting, the method of drawing mana onto his vessels was clean and procedural, with little to no resistance.
After all, if little resistance means his vessels bursting by the method, one can think about what excessive resistance entails…
/Shine…/
He raised his sword, taking a deep breath as he felt the Mana round him.
‘It is clean, extremely so. Its measurement… I’ve as a lot Mana as I had twenty years after I opened my very own coronary heart, and it hurts little to make use of it too.’
‘And right here within the Wall, I can really feel an abundance of power… No marvel the troopers not often ever drained whereas strolling on their heavy armor all day… It was due to this.’
‘There was a complete new world hidden earlier than me… And I can now lastly expertise it.’
‘No marvel he grew so quick, when kids are given the means to bitter, the power they take to flap their wings is incomparable to an previous crow like me.’
Testros smiled, fascinated with the previous and finally, the longer term he may’ve lived…
As he started fascinated with it, his expression soured.
‘Had I woke up this prior to now, how robust would I’ve been after… Regardless of.’ He thought as he shook his head, dismissing such ineffective ideas
He shortly moved on to checking himself, feeling his physique and the nice and cozy blood coursing by his nostril.
‘My accidents aren’t too vital, however I am unable to allow them to be. If I can discover a potion, it ought to heal me to a potent sufficient situation.’
‘No time to waste.’
He turned to take a look at the facet, seeing a big tower rise from one of many sides of the Wall.
There, his companions of previous remained. Folks he wished to see and discuss with, however on the identical time, was unwilling to face.
Their faces had been blurry, his reminiscences of them had all vanished, however the smiles he had throughout that point had been nonetheless there, engraved deep inside his skinny reminiscences.
‘The Recruit’s dormitories…’
For a second, his physique moved in the direction of it, nonetheless, with a robust step, he moved to the facet, away from the dormitory.
That wasn’t his vacation spot. He had larger priorities to take care of. He would not be swayed by a mere phantasm… That was what he tried to drive himself to consider.
‘I will come to go to if I’ve a while…’
Though he knew that wasn’t going to occur… He was able to throw his life away, as this time, he would not run away.
His sword was drawn and a portion of his future’s energy woke up, from right here on out…
Earlier than the person may proceed talking, Dale interrupted him.
“No, I am telling you to double down on them.”
/Thud!/
“How?”
The guard hit the steel bars along with his fists, staring intently at Dale as he tried to search out any semblance of weak point in his expression and tone.
He appeared greater than now, he was invested.
Dale had simply discovered one thing new, this guard hated dropping cash, or at the least one thing much like that…
“… My battle is inevitable, no matter who I discuss to or do, and it is clear that after the battle’s theme modifications, everybody will pull off their Bets and throw them elsewhere… If they’ll that’s.”
“This might be an awesome likelihood for the Sovereigns to take cash from all of the fools who guess earlier than as you possibly can’t pull what you already gave them, though you possibly can put it elsewhere…”
“Nevertheless, you can too double it down.”
It was onerous to learn the guard’s expression with the material on his face, however he did not appear upset, simply pensive.
“You might have the balls to name me a idiot… However I am all ears, I do not like dropping cash.”
“… The guards within the armory, they’re holding a betting scheme.” Dale declared out loud with out hesitation
“Ha… So even somebody such as you heard these rumors… Bunch of crooks they’re…”
“However what of it? Does it change something?”
“… They’re altering the distribution of apparatus to the combatants so their particular bets have a better likelihood of occurring. And clearly, this possible contains my inevitable demise as soon as I settle for the Eagle Problem.”
“What could be the toughest Wager of all of them to foretell?” Dale requested as he raised his arms to the guard making an attempt to type gestures to make his arguments extra convincing
“The Hardest one?… It could be you successful.”
“No, that is not it… The toughest one could be me taking down a few of them earlier than falling along with the opposite ones. A complete wipeout. A draw… A ‘Heroic Fall’.”
“A Heroic Fall… Sure, that’s certainly the case. However that is ridiculous to imagine, when was the final time we witnessed one such wipeout?”
“… And what if I instructed you one of many fighters is a ‘Cursed one’?”
“! T-That… Adjustments issues.”
‘If it is a Cursed one… He is possible preventing to clear his identify…’
‘And no matter who wins this time, he’ll die as even when he lives, he’ll take his personal life to clear his identify for the sake of his household.’
‘If the guards arm the fighters and make a cope with the Cursed one… There’s a very excessive likelihood that…’
“Okay… However to this point, you have solely given me causes to guess in opposition to you.”
“Good, now I will provide you with a cause to guess on me.” Dale mentioned as he smiled at nighttime
/Step…/
“Oi! What are you doing there? Taking a piss on them once more?! Get a transfer on!” The opposite guard exclaimed from the tip of the hallway
“He is coming, we do not have a lot time left.” Dale mentioned out loud as he pushed himself a bit additional, making an attempt to carry onto the bars
“I solely want you to do one factor, make it possible for I get an honest spear so I can battle, if you will get me one and once I win, then you definitely’ll possible be the one individual to have put some cash on my victory.”
“Take into consideration everybody and people guards’ plans… You might have a while to verify my phrases, when you do, think about what could be probably the most worthwhile.”
“To observe these bastards and achieve the scraps of their meals, or to go in opposition to the tide and achieve every thing alone.”
“I depart with my life and also you with the cash, that is all there’s to it. However I am unable to assure myself and not using a correct weapon.”
‘Not with out revealing an excessive amount of.’
“…”
The guard remained nonetheless, pondering, however he did not have a lot time to take action as Dale gestured to his left.
Understanding what he meant, he quickly rotated, saying:
“… And the place else am I purported to piss right here?!”
“TSK! You are the one contributing to this place smelling like these whorehouses! Come on, let’s get him out of there earlier than my lungs flip black.”
“…”
Dale returned to his nook within the cell, sitting down as he waited for the person’s selection.
‘This is step one into altering the way forward for these reminiscences… I am glad he did not ask many issues, I did proper by taking the initiative.’
‘However he is not dumb, he’ll possible query these issues and above all, notice that I should not know even half of every thing I mentioned as fight slaves like me solely know the best way to battle and never the small print of every thing else. Although it raises the query how the unique slave discovered of the Eagle Problem…’
‘Nevertheless, that will not change something, what’s going to he achieve by making an attempt to show these? It is a lot better to simply preserve quiet, simply as he and everybody else did to the guards manipulating the outcomes of the matches by the gear distributed to the fighters.’
‘With this physique, it isn’t too onerous to win preventing in opposition to odd folks, however I am unable to take a look at such a slim future when there’s a lot to expertise on this reminiscence.’
‘That is solely the primary day, I nonetheless have a number of left to unfold.’
Within the silence of the darkish cell, Dale closed his eyes. Meditating.
