《The Accidental Immortal Warrior》 The end is near but is it also the beginning This is the prologue just a heads up for the future readers, The date is unknown since I don¡¯t know which date this memory was from in my mind this memory is connected to my last mission. Now then back to the main reason for this memory it¡¯s about a mission that I was alerted to with my team. Oh ya I forgot to mention my name is Adam Mason or well know with the team aka armored mouse chuckles. well as to say my occupation is being a soldier in the field of special operations. Our captain has informed us in the briefing room that are mission is to hit an insurgents hidden barracks in the countries hilly mountains. So with that info for the mission we head to the armory to load up for the mission we all setup with the standard M-4 Assault Rifle with six magazines plus are side arms mine is my personal one my P-226 with another six magazines. We also put on are body armor and helmet with are radios built in alright everything seems to be in order we are now heading off to catch the C-130. Well no one said we would get inflight service now did they so everyone idea was pretty much the same find a spot lay down and snooze. There was a loud buzz then we got the message from the pilot saying where 5 mins to are drop point oh I forgot to say we also got are parachute bags in the armory it would of been stupid to jump out of eh plane without one. k next intercom message 30 second till we drop where all lined up ready to jump out of a moving plane well over forty thousand feet in the air that really sound like a sane idea right. Well now here we go out the plane here comes the rush got to make sure I hit the estimated landing point because the ground is looking a lot bigger fast. Here comes the landing with a thump and roll I am up and moving grabbing my chute and packing it in as fast as I can plus only be missing the landing mark by 500 yards not too bad. Now I got to hurry up meet with the team and head to the objective is about 20 klicks away oh the joys of are job we got to move to objective fast as we can great. It has taken us a few hours the steady jog made us reach closer to our objective only short of 3 klicks the reason why where stopping is we have to scout are objective first. In are recon we have found that there are 3 teams of roaming guards around the barrack base. The best bet so far is to let are sniper take them out one team at a time are sniper has been given the order to keep over watch throughout the mission while we ghost are way closer to the objective stepping on the balls of your feet to take less time in getting to the objective is a must. Let¡¯s say it took about an hour for all of prepared to be done seeing all the guards going down steadily one by one is good thing it helps us move the mission up the faster they are eliminated. As the last target hits the ground we all sneak are way up to the two buildings first building I guess we can say the chow hall for the bad guys here. Got to make sure no one is up getting food ready for the morning are there out for a late night snack. at this point of the mission we decided to split up we split up two of my teammates head to the chow hall the rest is going to head for are objective the barracks this is a silent elimination mission. Now back to my two teammates entered the chow hall it¡¯s pretty dark and quiet but we make a through look and found no one not even a mouse so we head back to the rest of the team going to the barrack. Now times to what my three other teammates and I can get the job done heading to the barrack the plan we will split up into pairs one pair will go through the front door while the other pair will head to the backdoor of the barracks then we will meet in the middle everything so far is pretty good it¡¯s only the sounds of snoring we hear and a few farts here and there. This is the second pair at the backdoor we crack the door open see no one so we keep going we find the bathroom and shower stalls we heads into the shower area no one is there. So next is the bathroom we hear some sounds some groaning and swearing sounds like the guys in the bathroom stall is complaining about the food come out at the wrong time so sad thing to say is we walked up silently up to the stall door and held are breath with the smell man the guy in there can make a stink good lord I don¡¯t want to know what he ate it smells bad enough. I tap my partner and give the hand signal to kick the door down he gives the hand signals back of k not even 10 seconds late the door is kicked open and the guy sitting on the toilet is what the fuck man but then my teammate shoots the poor guy in the head. Now I got to say can there be any worse way to die then death by shit laugh my ass off sometime doing this job is just worth the effort. Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road. after the gas chamber aka the bathroom we head down the halls sweeping the rooms we passed by and see a few tangos sleeping so well then we work on covering their mouth and cutting their throats one by add up to amount ten guys in this room and we found three other rooms same amount of tangos everyone went to see the reaper the same way. since we have covered are end of the barrack so far now is time to head to the middle. it is time for the my teammate and I to open the front door of the barrack I open the door as quiet as possible I have the right side of the hall while my teammate takes the left side, as we head down the hall I stop because I hear eh noise and look towards a room only ten feet away it looks like an office room slowly walk up to the open door and hear two guys talking so I stop look back at my teammate an signal to pullout the pistols and suppressors pretty much say let¡¯s do this quick and fast. checking to make sure I got the safety off we both get ready to the two tangos down in the room I got the left he¡¯s got the right we stand in front of the door. we see that both of them are looking away from the door so there goes pop and pop then two of the bodies slump in their chairs. since we have taken out the ones that are awake now it¡¯s time to take out the ones that are sleeping so well. we cautiously head down the hall making sure everything is quiet to do some more checking the place out a making sure we got no surprises up ahead of us there are four doors to four different rooms. So now we got to take the rooms one by one as I open the door I see ten tangos sleeping time to use the knives. We step in slowly into the room going up to are targets use are left hand grab their mouth close tight use are right to cut each one of throats one by one we cut their throats while they become death in their sleep. This repeating action happen to the other thirty eight tangos we find in the rooms as we finish up we head to the middle of the barracks to see if the other pair if they had any trouble, Now that we have made sure the place is secure we me are other teammates and find out they had no problems. The objective has been achieved time to get the heck out of here better then to be spotted and find out we are in a lot of trouble Now we have some more jogging to get to are Evac point which is another ten klicks Northwest of are position. Another hour and half now where only five hundred yards from are helicopter ride out of here. I am in the back of the team about two hundred yards behind being the rear guard since the team has made it to the helicopter I make a little speed up jog but find I am surround by a lead flying in from the west of me hundred fifty yards away on a big hill with rocks I find a lot flashes of gunfire from that spot. The only options are to run or fight and suppress them till my teammate can come and help me. I get into a half crouch position bring up my M4 Assault Rifle set it to burst fire started opening fire on any of the tangos I see. this is becoming a run and gun game I start to make a run towards my teammate buy have to turn around every few second to open fire on them. The ammo is going quick I am on my second to last magazine for my M4 only taken down twenty of the tangos so far. I am coughing also have a hard time breathing well. I am rushing to my teammates since I have taken quite a few gunshots to my legs and stomach area I am bleeding out a lot since I still have to move to get them which doesn¡¯t help much with so many internal wounds so far. My teammates finally get to me five minutes later they help carry me by holding up my shoulder to the helicopter as soon as I was on we were off. The medic is doing his best to patch up my wounds when they take off my body armor they see a good amount of rounds made it through the ceramic plate. He takes a look but all there is a blood soaked shirt he cuts it off buy blood is seeping out of my wounds like a leaking carbonator. Even though he does his best to bandage my wounds but six hours into the flight I can feel my heart beat is slowing down as the time goes by it eventually stops then the world goes dark. I have lost the ability to hear anything as well see anything this must be the place considered the limbo in most religions would call it. In front me is a pitch black void have no idea how long I have been here so far the feeling of falling comes to mind. After the thought of falling comes to mind then I hear a loud smacking sound does that add up to all the pain with the blinking lights and stars I see. As the star fad I see the place around me is glowing in dark blue light which in itself is interesting. While this dilemma was going through my mind I hear some movement and turn my head to the left of me I see a desk and chair ?? what the fuck this is the most random thing to see right after your death. Still looking around the room trying to absorb everything around me I hear a deep male voice come from somewhere close by. I think it¡¯s about time I stand up and talk to this random guy in a black Armani suit. There is a plank on the desk says death god what do you know I guess this must be decision time. Chapter 1 Oh shit new world {Death god} here Welcome to the afterlife mist Mason how was your trip so far and sorry for the landing I was aiming for the couch over there but missed it by ten feet. (Adam Mason) ah yes I am dead so my question who are you shouldn¡¯t we just be spirits. DG- yes you are a spirit but how would I be able to do any work if I am not able to talk to my clients if I can''t see them but a puff of air how does that help me know their personality from smoke come on now. AM- k that make sense so can I ask you who are and why am I here since death I should be set to my next life already.

AM- k since I am here to see where the next road that lead to my new life goes then can you tell me where the destination is. DG- I usually would and be done with but for you it¡¯s a bit different the balance in the karma you had in this life was a lot more lop sided. AM- k how lopsided could my karma have been I could say I wasn''t different than any other man in my life it¡¯s not like I did major change that shocked the world. DG- That is true you didn''t but still you did a lot of positive Karma in the sense you did a lot of charity work and donations to this alone put you well on the positive side. AM- how does that really make any major difference I am like any other person give a little helping hand here and there plus some spare cash to share how does that make me in the positive side. DG- well all of that did help you in the next life you can''t choose where you will be reincarnation to but you have a slot machine of choice with hundreds of billions of worlds to choose from if they land on your spins. AM- So that''s my difference from other people is I get to spin for my new reincarnation must of happen to a lot of people. DG- it has happened to a few hundred thousand souls but that is considered it be one in every one hundred billion thousand people that have died get the chance.

AM-to the last spin so goes pulling the lever again this time the three symbols are a sword and book Description says this is world of cultivation where you can be and immortal to a god only if you have the luck and the will to make it. DG- So now that you have finished your three spin which one of the three spin have you chosen as your new place of reincarnation. AM- I have chosen the world with cultivation in it as my choice of world I want to be reincarnated to be in. DG- k you have two choices either be reborn as a baby and start with a clean slate grow into your memory of this lifetime. DG- or you can choose to take a recent departed body and take up their life memory and see what you can do with it and your own memory together and see what you end up with. AM- the choices are between being reborn as a baby or take on someone¡¯s left over body absorb their memory and see where it will go.

DG- this trip took longer than I had guess it wasn''t this far but now I see the body of a child with his throat half torn off by and animal claw slash at least it was quick death but even with all the weapons he had on him he still died his luck must of been bad. DG- the damage doesn''t look to bad to fix will be easy the kid actually has a decent constitution with his 18 meridian where already open is he got to cultivation he could of open the 28 other meridian and have gotten the immortal meridian but he died already. DG- well I can open it all up when I fix the body for the soldier here his good karma was high so this should help him to eh good start when he begins to cultivate the body is not bad neither is the will and determination and enlighten was also pretty good but he died so this soldier got a decent body to take over. AM- so this is the body I will be taking over hmm not bad but sad that it had to be a kids body its always sad when a kid dies in any world. DG- alright I can fix the body no problem just gives me ten minutes and it will be fixed get ready to take over the body when I am done fixing it.

AM- the integration the kid¡¯s memories goes well his name was Souske DE blade so I guess that¡¯s my name now I understand the language and a bunch of other things just don''t know what the value of the money here is just yet maybe I''ll ask the kids grandfather or should I say my grandfather.

DG- alright since you are set then I will take my leave I hope you will have a good life this time as well. DG after I have said my piece I open up another portal back to the office here ends my part of the job. AM- since I have the kids name I will use from now on I will go by Souske DE blade not a bad name if I say so myself hmm still got 20 arrows a skinning knife and hunters knife let¡¯s see if we can find that asshole of a wolf that killed me arc wolf are what they¡¯re called class three spirit monster beast any spirit beast is valuable Chapter 2 Time to go see a wolf about him killing me there are some changes their will be icons for are MC thoughts ( ) Grandpa''s thoughts { } icon for Souske talking * icon for Grandpa talking ^ Now then let¡¯s take a look inside this backpack the Death God left me, hmm, items are some food a canteen of water self-refreshing canteen interest never need to find water that helpful also two storage rings with additional status of having a limiter for you know control your power the rings here that looks like an iron ring cheap and uninviting pretty much hides itself in plain sight not bad gathered a bit of QI and found I got so much space in the ring I could fit a thousand modern day city inside, and still got a lot of spare room, So now I go look for a nice and secluded spot pull out the special mansion and went inside even though it only looks 3 inches¡¯ big but the space inside is huge like the size of football field so I head into the room with door with green light turned on, next to the door I went inside right next to the door said time inside here is one-month vs 1 day outside, it will chime once when the whole day has been used up to tell you a whole day has gone by. Time to find a spot and let take a look at this Soldier cultivation book phase I, the first page say the principle of a strong and flexible body makes the best soldiers and immortals as well. first up its the cultivation of the muscles, got to have strong flexible muscles to do any action you need, Then the cultivation of the veins of the body, if don¡¯t know all your vein then when you get injured where would you know how to fix it with your QI if you have no idea the extent of the damage, there is cultivation of the bones a tough and solid bone will keep you alive less broken bone will keep you from dyeing in eh hard battle, there is also the cultivation of the marrow in your bone you might well have the best and purest marrow then shitty ones that will not help your cultivation much. Here is the final cultivation and the most dangerous the cultivation of the brain strengthen each muscle cell and veins to make you smart mentally tougher and hard to be mined controlled. This can pretty much lead you to blow up your own brain in self elimination if you succeed its different story you will be well heads above the rest. In the whole month I have been here cultivated the muscles speaking of muscles we are not talking about the arms and legs only, That seems to be the only thing in light novels do but my cultivation in muscles means more like down to the cell partial level in this it¡¯s amazing to see it happen in my own body but when you see your muscles tear it self-down over and over especial the groin area, some would say do it a few dozen times and your good to go other say do it one hundred times or a few hundred times then your considered a genius. Well no one was around to tell me that so I went all out so cultivation of the muscles happened around ten thousand times it was absolutely painful as all hell the whole time aim cultivating I was swearing in as many words I can and how colorful my words got the more painful it got considering you¡¯re doing self-cremation over and till now my body is as tough as diamonds and white soft like a baby¡¯s bottom in this point it makes sense aim a six-year-old child so soft skin is a good thing. This all happened within three days¡¯ real time but three months inside the temporal mansion in the end my strength ended up being around 80 thousand jinn worth of strength, I am pretty strong now how many six year olds have that kind of strength, Time to head back out to see if I can find Let¡¯s go track down this wolf, and kill it so now creeping along in the wood have seen three class two mountain deer killed all three placed it in my ring, It¡¯s taken half the day to find the asshole of a wolf found him biting into his fresh kill of a large deer class 3 same as the wolf while he was eating his eyes where showing the ecstasy of eating a tasty fresh never even saw me fire both of my arrows, right through its eyes died right on the spot funny ass way to die for acting so tough. (6-year-old in this body it¡¯s crazy in thoughts it¡¯s a 41-year-old, with that strength would still be awesome since when I died I was only 35 years old, Still all this strength I have to learn how to control so there goes another day but was really month inside the temporal mansion now I got it under control since both of my storage rings have the other additional status of power limiter of 30% of power times two held back of the eighty thousand left me with only 40% of my strength which ended up being thirty-two thousand jinn 6-year-old that still is crazy.) (now that I have finished cultivation of the first steps time to think about heading home my grandfather must be worried about me home was only 6 miles away from where this body died before now I am ten miles away from home after I tracked down the wolf,) I get up dust myself and head in the direction of home four miles into the trip I ran into this giant class three deer it was minding its own business just eating grass I shot him three times behind the heart till the first arrow got through and punctured his heart*, so now I got to carry a deer home heavy faker he is*, (this is going to feel like a long ass trip this buck isn¡¯t light three thousand jinn is definitely not light,) The walk down these animal trail plus all these high hills is starting feel like aim on top of a tortoise or something bump thump bump thump is all I hear when am walking over the hills. They say if you¡¯re not thinking about your burden aye shouldn¡¯t feel it but then again I do its fat and heavy not to miss with every step not even using 10% of my muscles at all you all have to understand being just a six-year-old kid who would even have this strength at my age is crazy as it gets. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.(I know that I am sounding like an eighty-year-old grandfather, but people got to gripe sometime since there is no one to gripe to I might as well gripe to myself right, make sense right or does that make me sound a bit insane,) (the hills are getting smaller I think the roof of the villa is coming into about time I think this was long enough for anyone, I got to live in a villa is there anything wrong with that it¡¯s not a new one but its old and well maintained by my grandfather, There are also twenty hectors of land, that has been made into are planting field, we live about two miles outside of town, so getting fresh vegetables would be a chore if we didn¡¯t grow our own,) Walking up to are old front gate it opens as a middle aged gentleman stand looking at me in his leather armor with his arms crossed and his saber on his belt to the left side of his hip, the saber looks to be around two meters in length I have to say do you really need a weapon that long you have to consider the weight and length plus its durability is a main factor in any weapon. K I seem to have gone a little tangent their but still it pretty crazy you know. Well hello there everyone my name is Markus DE blade the old grandfather of Souske DE blade or should this little scamp more like it he likes to give me grey hairs when he can^, {So I hear my grandson call out grandfather I am home I steadily walk up to the gate and open seeing my grandson walk up was definitely eh interesting experience for this day,} {you would have expected to see a little six-year-old walk up to the gate tired from the hunt dirty a hungry but instead what I see is he¡¯s got a class three mountain deer on his shoulder, walking like it weight nothing, this was a shocker for me because I know myself personally that my grandson has never started cultivation, of any sort before he went out hunting.} {I did the only thing that made sense at the time I gave my grandson the fable old man dead pan look,} saying in flat tone you have been away for only five day I see aye have gotten yourself eh kill but still a class three monster is definitely not what I was expecting^, so I have a feeling this will have eh long story to this right. Now that you¡¯re here why don¡¯t you go take a bath and change I¡¯ll skin your prize so go hurry up now. (While I was walking up to the gate my grandfather was already there with his dead pan look, saying why was I gone so long for five days and that he wasn¡¯t expecting the level of the monster I would bring back,) (while he would deal with skinning and deboning the meat, also the throw away of the gut and other unwanted thing. This was actually a good time to ask if he could just show me how skinning your kill, will be better than lugging it all the way home whole as the deer is still on my shoulder at the moment,) My grandfather gives me thoughtful look, he says maybe it is about time you should know how to skin your kills, since now that you can hunt class three monsters now. He says to go to the back courtyard and put down their deer there, he will be there shortly, after I set down the mountain deer my grandfather walks up with his really sharp skinning knife, he goes into a squat took a look at how the deer died and said not bad there grandson this a hard shot to get the heart shot from behind the heart since the mountain deer was well armor from the back. He pulls out all three arrows two of them are broken and one is still whole the one that pierced the deer¡¯s heart stayed whole. Alright grandson look closely how I skin this deer you will have to do the same thing when you are out hunting again next time^, the first step is to cut from right under the jaw bone all the way down to the groin area^, make sure the knife is not in so deep to damage the organs^, because if you do it will make things messier and twice as stinky^, After you have cut the deer open you will have to grab the skin of the deer move it to the left first and cut the left front foreleg^, then back foreleg you have to cut it from the opening cut to make it match up and less rip in the skin make it more valuable^, the same step will apply to the right side then you will have to start on the waste organs make sure you break none of it if you like the smell of el dee deer shit then by all means break the waste organs laugh my ass off. okay jokes aside the spleen liver and heart is good for soups and stew good to clean and dry out, the intestine the little one and big one can be used as bow string, so can all the tending in the deer all so used as bowstring class three deer have some tough tending makes good bowstring. Now the brain eyeball can be used by alchemist to make potion so can all these bones can extract all the qi from the bone and marrow by using your QI to pull it out or boil it in a soup or stew which makes them both into QI food enriched good for any cultivator. Just putting this down here I will try to get more chapters out during this week but this is a reader interactive story so I ask you the readers if you want your own character in this story give me a brief bio on the life of the character and which will it be the side characters a friend of are MC or an antagonist with the MC up to you the reader to see if you want to add anything in I will still keep the story going along on its course so far. methados world info dumps hope to not make you guys sad its not another chapter. In the world of methados you have mortals, gangs, nonaffiliated armies, Mercenaries, Adventurer, cultivators, there are clans, sects, royal academy¡¯s, these are the main things that run most of the function in the world it¡¯s about let¡¯s say 20 times bigger then old earth so as to say the land is as far as the eye can see till you blind and dead lol. Now then there is about give or take 60 extremely powerful empires¡¯ that are dotted around the explored world so far as to that extends would probably about the size of the earth so far even though the world has been around for over six hundred million years already but then again creatures with enough insight to be able to cultivate has only been around for the last 30 million years or so since most cultivators if you get high enough you can live for a really long time. This is why there are those 60 top empires they started either from the beginning or they are the decedent of other empires before they settle down with regulations and laws. Beside these 60 there are around ten thousand other small kingdoms this isn¡¯t only populated by humans it has beast humans¡¯ elves dwarfs ya know the whole crazy mythical world mix up here. K everyone considers these elves are into 6 different branches they all don¡¯t get along well but there not trying to genocide the other either. First up on the list woodland elves like it said is most book these guys you can guess how they are. Second one up forest elves they are bit different but they have the basic same characteristics of their cousins the woodland elves. Third are the mountain elves they are really take the meaning of the solitary to whole different extent. Fourth are the dark elves they aren¡¯t as evil as most think their god is just a lover of the world under the moonlight if they do anything suspicious just blame it one it¡¯s the dark and most people are already asleep lol. The fifth sand elves the harshest climate areal to live in but probably the most monster rich are of hiders and ambushers around a good play to train your young but make sure you have plenty of water food medicines antidote in large amounts. Now the final elves are the ocean elves rider of the waves battlers of the seas main interest in fighting pirates or some become pirates or they do a lot of escort duties or a lot of trading with a lot of island or costal countries. The dwarf pretty much the name explains it self they are short and strong love the mountains but they have two factions the light dwarfs as most would say be the honorable merchants and craftsman¡¯s will always keep their word and love to drink till there passed out on any other day. Then there are the dark dwarfs they also live in mountain crafting as well but they like to look to precious metals to make and sell but they have a bad habit of being into being thieves and high priced merchants always want more than their products are worth. Pretty much the assholes of the commerce worlds are there game of the day. This story has been unlawfully obtained without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.Now Beastmen can be classed in any predator like cougars, panthers, tigers, lions, wolfs, bears, eagles falcons if not dragons. All of these beastmen have their own separate kingdom for each type or other variation of type but they also have other kingdoms with a mixed population of them. Since everyone like to have a different partner here and there the world population of mix breeds are decent but that doesn¡¯t mean there all respected by others. K now that we have that out of the way lets settle on the currency of this world general set is copper iron silver gold platinum also spiritual coins and QI essence coins. 100 coppers make up 1 iron coin 100 iron coins make up 1 silver coin 100 silver coins make up 1 gold coin compares to platinum coins it¡¯s more like 1000 gold coins to 1 platinum coins 1000 platinum coins equal to one spiritual coin 1000 spiritual coins equal to 1 QI essence coin. There are I think so far four ranks that will be cultivated into first up mortal Rank, earth mortal, sky mortal, Practitioner rank. So from now on when I speak of rank I mean this in the rest of the story so far. Now they weapon¡¯s as you could guess are basically like any world with cultivation swords sabers spears halberds axes bow¡¯s armor is still being armor but can be pretty much made from almost anything the same apply for weapons. If there is anything else it will be added on later or we can have the readers have their input on what goes into this world as well. Chapter 3 time to sell the goods Changes Grandfather to grandpa to make typing less of an issue. there will also be new icon added in to help readers understand whats going on for thoughts in the head of are MC Soukse will be ( ) as this now his icon for talking is * this now Grandpa icon is ^ this so don''t get lost when you read now. (after grandpa showed me how skin to deer, he also showed me how to smoke the meat, to make it a stable food for long hunting trips, also for travel to where ever we would want to go.) I looked at grandpa, saying I had three other deer corps in my storage rind so I pulled out the three other deer¡¯s*, (my grandpa face was the look of dead pan you know I don¡¯t care look, then it turned into the look of straight up shock by seeing the deer come out from no were,) Then he said wait a second when did you ever have a storage ring? I never did own one grandpa I got these two rings from the cave I found while hunting*, Hmm; you know you never told me how you¡¯re this strong to carry the class three mountain deer it weights around three thousand jinn that¡¯s not something a child your size can usually handle^, Also now you show me the three other deer you have two class one deer plus the class three with what looks like an animal mind explaining to me how you got all of them^. I well got the two class two deer when I was looking for a class three Arc wolf*, looking at my grandpa pensively saying that the Arc wolf scared me while I was hunting*, Although I found the cave before I found the wolf, in the cave I found the rings plus a manual*. the tomes told me how to do transform the mortal body into eh cultivators prime body*, there were five different steps in the cultivation tome I only did step one cultivation of the muscles that was the time spent for around three days in the cave*, I finished it but to say it wasn¡¯t a pleasant feeling I¡¯d like to redo again anytime soon probably next millennium would be better*, (My face turned a bit sour at the memory Cultivating for first stage muscles was definitely not pleasant in the least bit,) the new strength I had cultivated encouraged me to look for that wolf that scared me*, So the stalking commenced took me half a day to find it, the dumb Arc wolf was actually busy biting into the neck of the mountain deer*, there it was having a pleasure in eating the deer¡¯s flesh so it never noticed I was around when I shot it in both the eyes it died just like that*, (After making the statement about the Arc Wolf I pulled out of my storage ring placed it on the ground to let grandpa see how it died with two arrows to head via the eyes.) (Grandpa stood there for a time collecting his thoughts on the information I gave him of the prior events,) he said okay let me get this straight while you were out hunting you were spooked by the Ark Wolf am I right so far^, then you found eh cave with storage rings and a tome on cultivation^, (he gives me a smirk the saying goes you never run into meat pies falling from the sky all the time,) he looked at me sternly saying I personally know what the Cultivation of the muscles mean I went through that as a child as well when my father made me do it at the age of ten you on the other hand started way early then me that must have been absolute painful experience^, his face settled back into a calm look alright grandson you take on the class two deer¡¯s and I¡¯ll take one the Mountain deer plus the Arc Wolf^. (I looked to the sky wondering how long this skinning job was going to take us in the end grandpa and I the next two hours to get then all gutted and skinned,) (also had to drained the blood was the first step forgot to put that in last chapter since you don¡¯t want slippery meat to skin better bleed it first right,) The blood from the four deer¡¯s can be purified and ingested to help QI growth or can be used in pill making or potions by Alchemist^, Also the Arc Wolf blood as well all the resources of these QI monsters are useful in a lot of thing they can be sold for a high price^. (I think we have got the job done,) now that we have finished bleed all the of the kills we have skinned them all tanning the skin will be brought to the tanner in town^, the bones blood tooth nail and claw will be heading to the alchemist shop^, The meats we will probably keep a portion of the Arc Wolf good for Cultivation and the two mountain deer¡¯s as well we can sell all of the class two deer¡¯s no problem there all meats organs bones are definitely going to be able to sell for a decent amount of gold^, Grandpa looks at me chuckling I should say the skin of the Arc Wolf is pretty strong so I should ask the leather maker to treat the skin well so we can have it created into armor for my grandson and me hunting out there in the mountains Abyss will be getting more dangerous the farther we head into it^, I guess tomorrow bright and early we will take the horses out and head into town to sell the kills so we can make some money we aren¡¯t poor per say but you can never have enough for eh rainy day think and plan ahead is always the best strategy^. (Ahh the Bath was great after all that hunting and skinning the animals was definitely educational and smelly all as heck,) ah I see my bed or should I say Souske¡¯s bed now that I am him I guess it¡¯s mine now*, I walk up to the bed and sat down then laid out my legs smacked my pillow feels so good in a decent bed I started to snore it was such a pleasant sleep*, then there was a loud smack on my door made me jump out of bed looking for me knifes are we being attacked*, But then I hear grandpa call get up grandson its time get ready to head to town better get things done early then waste the day away^, Grr dangit I was just sleeping so it was a nice dream and all this old fart can really know how to mess up anyone good time if it¡¯s your sleep it¡¯s not your joy around him dammit all*. {I look to the sky the sun is almost what is taking that child so long why is he so slow I woke him up five minutes ago, where is his lazy ass oh here he come I see him still got the look of I should have stayed in bed,} Ah well the horses are already hitch to the cart it¡¯s time to be on are way the town only two miles away this should be quick^, Finally, he makes it to the side seat he really looks like he¡¯d rather be in bed then be here but how are you going to make any money if all you want to do is sleep the day way^, Alright let go Jia snap the whip the horses are on their way fast trotting to town this was a quiet brisk ride to town took no more than an hour to get to town^, oh we are now in town huh I sat their scratching my head I guess am still in dreamland when I get nudged out of my seat that is can you all blame sleep is important to anyone especially for a child my age sleep is crucial*, (but in grandpa options it¡¯s up to him to decide on that,) Ah might as well get everything over with so I can get back to my bed that is calling me*, Also forgot to tell you guys the towns populations around 2000 people so it¡¯s not really big but not really small either*, (The first destination seems to the alchemist shop grandpa heads in first got to sell the teeth claws horns and bones let¡¯s see for all the bones came out to be around four hundred gold coins the class two deer bones was worth fifty gold coins each the class three deer by itself was one hundred gold coins and the Arc Wolf by itself was worth two hundred coins,) You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author. That quite the haul in my opinion *, we made out like bandits ^, so we hurried out of the alchemist shop I looked at grandpa saying we forgot to sell the blood of the deer¡¯s and wolf he said we do that next hunt prizes this time we will purified the blood are selves and consume the blood you need to help your cultivation in the next phase right the cultivation of the vein just as painful as cultivation of the muscles.^. (This time we should head to the butcher and sell off the meat we don¡¯t need since we have at least enough of the two mountain deer to make a whole one and half an Arc wolf high concentration of the QI in the meat is good for cultivation,) (While we head are way to the butcher shop there weren¡¯t many people around so we didn¡¯t have any gawkers which is a good no one needs to know the others business,) This storage bag is heavy alright with all the meat in it making it weight around twelve-thousand-pound worth of QI monster meat^, even though the bag look smaller then it weighted more then it looked so this poor old man¡¯s back am not young anymore ^, but then again that just an inside joke my cultivation level is in the late phase of student rank almost into the first lower level of senior student rank^. My grandson on the other hand is only on the first phase of the mortal class probably around rank three since he cultivated all his muscles^. welcome customers how can I help you today with your needs of any meat which type and how much do you need I am ready to serve you anytime when you¡¯re ready Gabe demson the butcher said, Hmm, this old man and the child from outside of town I wonder what they¡¯re doing here for their not really loved by the town but not hated either I wonder what the business is today from then they usually only come here once a month it¡¯s the middle of the month now weird. I grunt in response to the greeting from Gabe^, hello Gabe how the butcher busy been far this month? a well that¡¯s not important it what I have in my storage bag that¡¯s what important at the moment^, I set the heavy ass storage bag on the counter I can hear it groan from the weight of the bag^, I put my hand in the bag and pull out the wrapped meat of the first class two deer then placed the bag at my feet waiting for Gabe¡¯s response to the meat in from of him the size of the meat is over 2 meters in lengths while being a meter tall that quite the pile of meat I think eh^. Gabe aka the butcher takes a look at the pile of meat in front of him takes five minutes to recognize its class two deer meat Qi Monster, it¡¯s more like I am in shock now rarely do we get more then class one monster meat then they are expensive to the rich family¡¯s in town, this whole pile of meat is worth a thousand gold coins now but can be sold for three times much the rich like high quality meat especial QI concentrated meat. I look towards Gabe saying I know what the value of this meat is so no cheating me Gabe^, also here take a look at these another class two deer just like the first one I brought out of my storage bag^, I also have one Mountain deer meat half of one that is then another half of one I give a little smirk^, {I still have the Arc wolf for last to see what Gabe¡¯s reaction to seeing all this meat is muahaha maniacal laugh am so evil.} Gabe the frack did old Markus there pull out a whole another class two deer in the exact same amount of meat dam I am going to be rich, oh ya what a good start to the day, Then I see him still reaching into his bag he pulls out another wrapped meat it¡¯s about the same size as the class two deer meat but it looks darker and it richer color high in concentration of QI, Okay now my brain has absolutely fried for the day that Mountain deer meat hard to come by meat pretty rare around here doesn¡¯t come in often, He¡¯s still sticking his hand in the bag oh dammit he pulled another mountain deer meat same size as the last am about to faint here too much valuable meat in front of me. I am an old man but you got to enjoy things in life like making your friend almost have a heart attack^, {I was laughing in my mind so evil for an old man you have to wonder about my mind sometimes I have to ahahah Gabe looks like I just bittched slapped him all week the look on his face is priceless,} all worth the effort to be here bright an early laugh out loud I got give the dead pan look poker face for the win^, Gabe¡¯s facial expression is killing me, I guess it¡¯s about time to the final killing move that will be this six-meter-long three meters high Ark wolf meat, when Gabe saw the meat and straight out fainted ahahha maniacal laugh I did it he fainted now^, that¡¯s the stuff what get your heart pumping in the morning^, Now this is definitely not what you see every day to see the tall slightly fat butcher pass out in front of me^. Gabe I feel groggy why did I just pass out, while getting up from the floor I take a look on the counter and now understand why I fainted there was a very large chunk of Arc wolf meat on my counter, holy cow the value of this is crazy I still have to add up the price for all this meat can¡¯t cheat old Markus to much or he will take away all the meat, The value of the mountain deer meat alone over four thousand in gold coins and can be sold at five times the value, The Arc wolf on the other hand is valued at five times the value of the mountain deer, this will add up to around twenty thousand in gold coins this is going to cost me a good amount of money, the total cost all together to purchase the meat from old Markus is twenty-four-thousand in gold my heart bleed over the cost, but the amount I will make from selling all this meat will make the cost to be chump change, in comparison I hand over the bank not to old Markus he steadily counts it looks at me say Gabe doesn¡¯t this look a little light, All I could say I have to make some profit here old Markus plus I don¡¯t have much gold on me right now if you really want the rest come back another time. My grandpa gave him the annoyed plus his voice added in sarcasm of if you didn¡¯t have enough to buy the meat then why did you wanted at all huh, grandpa turned around and looked at me and said alright we made a lot of gold today plenty for us to last a lifetime if we were frugal^, but other expenses will come into the future we never know. Okay now let¡¯s head back home since we got what we came to do now grandson do you have anything you want to buy in town tell me now so we can get it done now then later. Alright everyone Armoredfrost here this chapter was a comedy to type up so do leave comment to say if you like the story so far or not also list down any fixes I need to do well later guys. Chapter 4 its time to get some new clothes there are new icons to help reading easier when I have thoughts for Souske its these icons come around the sentence ( ) Soukse icon when he talks * now Granpa''s icon when he talks ^ (After I hear what my grandpa said to me I turn to look at his face wondering if he is joking around or being serious this time into his thoughts,) Alright grandpa you said we could go to any place in town right?* my grandpa look back me saying yes I said we can go anywhere in town where you even listening to me or were you still in dreamland^, I respond with is we can go anywhere in town then I have an idea for three different places to head to*, looking at my Grandpa I said okay then lets head over to the tanner first and get all are animal skins to be tanned since I was wondering if we can use the leather to make some clothes and armor especial the Arc wolf leather skin*, Grandpa response was I was having a similar idea on the subject of the animal skins so yes we should head over to the tanner in low steady tone^. (I was doing a little sightseeing since this is the first time in this world that I have been to any town so far since I took over this child¡¯s body,) Grandpa looked back at me looking all over town while we were walk towards the tanner¡¯s shop so the kids finally awake huh and he is curious^, (while my Grandpa headed in first I stayed a little back looking at the raw good of tanned skin and the finished good out on the self for sale,) (there is a lot of shirts around well done they look pretty durable to me and the pant look like there soft leather look comfortable if I was wearing them,) hmm, he really does look like eh curious cat doesn¡¯t he^, in his thoughts while looking at his grandson look at all the leather goods. Alright time to get to the real business of coming to the tanning shop^, I walk up to the counter and was greeted by miss Hazel her full name is Emma Hazel^, I said hello to miss Hazel today I have brought some animal skin wondering if you would be interested in buying some^, if you can work on some for us we need a few of them to be tanned^, Miss Hazel¡¯s response to my question with bring out the animals skins and I will see if any of them interest me, Alright then lets me lay down the animal skins evenly so you yourself can see their quality by themselves that¡¯s what Grandpa said to miss Hazel^, I will pull out each animal skin slowly so you can judge on your own weather they are worth your time or not^, the first skin to come out are the 2 class 2 deer skins^, then I proceeded to bring out the 2 mountain deer skins^, at last but not least the Ark wolf skin was the largest and the biggest of all the skins^, In conclusion to placing all five animal skins on the counter has definitely made miss Hazel go a little dumbfounded at the sight of all the skins since rarely did she ever work with animal skins higher then class one monster skin usually. Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. Oh look at all of those animal skin there all class 2 and above what kind of day is this is it a holiday or something did I miss looking at the calendar today looks like any normal midweek day, Miss Hazel said after a time of total silence in the tannery I would be willing to purchase all the animal skins that are on the counter, eh you want to buy all of them I haven¡¯t even said which animal skin I wanted you to work on for me yet will you change your mind if tell you which one I wanted to be tanned and made into armor^, all of this to Miss Hazel, in response to what Grandpa said miss Hazel said alright can you tell me which of these animal skin will be made into armor and clothes, Grandpa said in response to miss Hazel¡¯s reply was, I would like the damaged mountain deer skin made into shirts and pant for myself and my grandson plus for the armor I would like it to be the Arc wolf skin to be made for my grandson also including myself as well any leftover leather from making the armor will be yours miss Hazel. Alright then I will purchase the two class 2 deer skins for 150 gold coins plus the other mountain deer skin that I willing to pay you a hundred gold coins for the skin it is eh well skinned no real damage but the shot to the heart I can work with it no problem, Grandpa replied with I agree with the price we have a deal so how much is it going to cost me for the clothes and armor you will make for us, Let me see the leather is here no cost to that just tanning and creating the clothes not to much there around 10 gold coins for that, Grandpa response was okay I can pay you right now for the agreed amount now how much for the armor will cost me^, miss Hazel¡¯s response was the tanning will be a bit harder but shouldn¡¯t be too hard it just the leather will be harder to cut and sow into the armor you need so in response to all the pain and suffering I will go through the price I will charge you is 40 gold for both sets of armor. alright I can give you all of the cost today and will see in a week to pick up the clothes and the armor is that workable for you miss hazel, that is definitely enough time for me to get this order all done within a week¡¯s time this is agreeable with me so here is the 250 gold for the animal skins and thank you for your order. Chapter 5 I think weapons are fun there are some changes now we have different icon for different reasons such as in the head thoughts will be like this ( ) Souske icon will be * Granpa icon will be ^ so if any sentence has these icon at the end of them you know who is talking. The transaction to place and order for clothes and armor was done, as well the other skins where sold for eh decent price made the trip over worth it. With all of these priority done my Grandpa was walking his way over to me calling me its done so let¡¯s get going to the other places you wanted to go^, I turned around and walk over to my grandpa then I replied alright since we are done here can we head to the weapon shop I want to see if I could find any medium class weapons to buy I think it is time I learn to use a weapon or two*, My grandpa looks at me question with the look of curiosity, to my request for weapons, if you all heave been reading along I have said many time that I am only six so this is definitely not a normal question from the child my age.*. Alright if that is what you really want to go and get then I might as well help you since we have a decent history involved with weapons and armies included^, my eyebrow went up*, how is it we have a history with armies¡¯ grandpa*, this kind of random information is making all the more curious as to the reason we have a history with armies*. (After his little statement my Grandpa headed out of the tanner shops door, with me running to catch up I really hate being short sometimes)* he headed in the direction towards the east section of town near the smithy and armorer*, Alright let¡¯s go look at weapons I cheered out loud to the annoyance of my Grandpa give me a scowl*, so what Old man I am still a kid give me a break you know*, I am only going to be so young for so long ya know*. The trip to the east side of town took about eh half an hour of time, we even stop by a food cart and even got a few skewers of meat cost only 10 copper coins for the three skewers*, Ah hot food on a chilly morning like this wensday*. (As we get closer to the weapon shop we hear the sounds of hammers ringing on anvils it got louder as we got closer,) (all this sound and smoke can really wonder if ya can get hearing loss early in your age around this world of Methados all of these thoughts come mind,) As I thought while walking to the weapon shop*, My Grandpa took the lead as usual he opened the door to the weapon shop^,The interior was filled with weapons of all kinds, from the smallest to the biggest*, to the lightest and the heaviest*, (if anyone else was here this would I would guess a weapon otaku¡¯s wet dream come true.) (When my Grandpa walk through the door he was greeted by a man built like bear but had a medium voice greeting us,) Welcome to manfair weapon shop the only place in town that will satisfy your need for weapons you have needs, we are going to look around a bit no worries you will have sales today we came to get a few weapons^, I looked over at my Grandpa and said help me find some medium class swords and sabers also a spear as well*. (With that statement, we both headed to either side of the weapon shop looking at all the different weapons,) I headed to the left side of the shop*, Grandpa said he would head over to the right side of the shop^, Looking at all these weapons can make an old man like me drool inside^, I never had much when I was young was poor and an my single parent father wasn¡¯t much help to boot^, I think it time I got back to what I was doing before helping my grandson look for some weapons, hmm, I thought he was still too young for weapons but with him already cultivated his muscles I would guess this would be the next course of action for a six-year-old child cultivator^, I looked around saw some cheap weapons then saw some medium rank swords saber and the spears^, While I was thinking to call my grandson over to look at the weapons that he asked me to help look for^, instead I hear my grandson calling out Grandpa I found some weapons I think I want^. The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. (Looking at all these weapons on their rack and shelf placement I looked around up and down side to side,) while I was getting deeper in the aisles of weapons eh pair of swords caught my attention*, they look to be well crafted and not flashy at all with two different animal head shape pommels, they were both around 4 foot long with the handle*, in size measurement of 42 inches in length of the blade adding the handle another 6 inches makes the sword overall length 48 inches long*, with of the sword for being double edged was 3 and half inches*, both of the swords had the same length but different pommels on them one had the facial look of eh shadow panther class senior apprentice spirit monster*, the other pommel had eh facial look of the lighting tiger this is a class 6 or we could say peak senior student rank monster spirit class*. (These two swords were definitely on my list to buy,) while I continued on my way deeper into the rows upon rows of weapon found a pair of sabers almost like the swards design*, they had the same with and length to the swords but was only single edged like a large chopping blade*, their pommels had same heads on them in their design one had the look of eh Demon Wolf the other pommel had the head of eh water dragon*, (now if these pair of saber don¡¯t scream out don¡¯t mess with mother faker if ya want to die just make a move sucker.) Finally, we made it to the spear section and I found eh spear that drew my attention, it was 9 feet long was over 2000 jinn heavy, oh the beauty of it with the spear shaft shaped like a large arrow with the animal head look of eh fire lion with all the red tassels on it.*, I think I found what I wanted to but so I called out to grandpa can you come over here I think everything I wanted was found*, my grandpa headed over to me and asked what I needed I said I found my swords Sabers Spear as well are trip to the weapon store is over*. Grandpa reply to me was you sure you want all of these weapon they are all rare class Iron weapons you know^, I replied back with yes Grandpa these are the weapons I want plus oh also three dozen throw knives and a few throwing axe as well*, he looked at me and said really you want all of this it is not going to be cheap^, my response was a nod my head and said yes I know it will cost us but we have made plenty from the deer and wolf that I killed this will be nothing then a spit in the bucket*. Grandpa said alright let¡¯s go and tell the owner of the shop which weapon we need by number tag and have him tell his helpers to get them, the whole ordering and purchasing of all the weapons took no time at all. The five weapons came in five different cases the throwing knives plus the flying axe were in two separate bags, everything all together cost us around 1500 in gold coins it was expensive alright but it will be used for a long time, might as well buy the best then use the worst to pinch a penny here and there that may one day cost your life in a tough fight. (Grandpa paid the shop owner then he grabbed the cases one by one and shoved them into his storage bag it sure is convenient at times like this,) oh and don¡¯t forget the two other bags as well grandpa*, that earned me a glare, (okay now is not the time to anger the money bags I chuckle in my mind.) Grandpa says let¡¯s get going since we have the weapons that you wanted were else do you want to go before we head home^, I responded with can we head to the bookstore next I need to find a few tomes on basic for Sword Saber and Spear also throwing knives and axes*. sorry guys Sorry everyone I was pulled into eh random trip so I haven''t had a chance to write any chapters at the latest I think I might have a few chapters tommrror. Chapter 6 About bloody time the chores are done When you see the icons such as this ( ) it means I am talk about things in my head. also new Icon to reconize each character talking Souske got this icon * when its his turn in convosation now Grandpa turn icon is ^ so you guys don''t get confused. Alright looks like we got all the weapons you wanted^ (I finally got some decent weapons although the cost was pretty good amount of gold at this point it¡¯s a worthwhile investment) That is what I wanted to come to the weapon store for Grandpa^ now then since we got all of this out of the way where to next do you want to go anywhere else before we head back to the Manor ^ lets head over to the book store I think I need a few tomes on the basics for sword saber spear and throwing weapons* If that is where you want to go then we should head to the center of town were the stored for supplies for making books and purchasing books can be done^ (As the usual way to the next destination Grandpa is going to take the lead he knows where he¡¯s going I am not sure where everything is in this town) all of this round in a circle we go I wonder if we might as well go ride eh and get the cart it would have been faster* nah that wouldn¡¯t of been worth the effort Souske it is better to just walk there it is not like this bag is that heavy or the book store is too far away^ okay you win we will both walk to the bookstore problem solved alright* I don¡¯t know why you even said we should of gotten the cart it is even farther away than the bookstore we are heading towards^. (The walk to the bookstore in itself was not all that eventful) I see the book store coming up ahead* yes I see it too Souske let me open the door then you can head inside and find the tomes you are looking for^ alright Grandpa let¡¯s get in and out we have to get back home its almost halfway towards noon already* (as we both head inside the bookstore it is a medium size store not too big or neither is it too small from the looks of all the books on the shelf and table) it¡¯s a place with a lot of books so Soukse make sure you read every title of the tomes you need just to make sure you don¡¯t pick the wrong one when I go up to pay for them^ give me a few minutes Grandpa and I will find the tomes I need this Shouldn¡¯t take long at all* since he¡¯s going to be looking around for the tomes then I might as well take my time and take a look at anything that catches my interest^. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. The search for the tomes did take more than five minutes but I did find them all one on the basics for the Sword, another basics for the saber, took a little more effort to find the basics on the spear but I found it anyways, the hardest ones to find was the basics for throwing weapons such as the knifes and axes that Grandpa bought for me* hey Grandpa I think I found all the tomes I need can you go and buy these for me* alright is they are the tomes you need then come over here and pass them to me so I can pay for them^ okay heading over to you, walking over to Grandpa took no time at all*, I handed Grandpa the five tomes on the basics of the weapons I needed*, are these all the tomes you wanted?^ yes all five of these tomes are on all the basics for all the weapons we bought earlier*. Mister clerk here are the tomes I would like to purchase how much will they cost me*, the five tomes will round out to be a two gold coins they cost around forty silver coins each shop clerk said. Okay here is the two gold coins^. (The clerk took the gold coins and passed the book back to my Grandpa) okay now that we have got all the tomes you wanted let¡¯s head back to the inn and get are horse cart^, alright let¡¯s head to the horse cart so we can head back home the vegetable fields will not tend themselves*. (The walk back to the west side of town was a lot longer than it was in the beginning so it took around a half hour to walk their dam can this be any more energy consuming) ah there is the horses and the cart Grandpa lets hurry*, I am moving as fast as this old man can you know I am not as young as I am use to^, Well why do I hear an old man gripe so much then you Grandpa makes me wonder sometimes about who should be whining me or you*, when did I ever had such a sarcastic grandson before is just you went into the woods did it change you that much^, no I was always sarcastic but your never around to hear it*. Alright this sarcasm is going to get old let¡¯s get going the horses is already hitched up the ride for this trip is going to not take long only a few hours^. Rank class info dump This will be the ranks in steps of body cultivation these ranks are to tell the steps in forging the body. First rank is Mortal rank 1 up to rank 9 mortals, the next phase would be earth Mortal rank same ranks begin rank 1 to rank 9, the third to last phase rank is sky mortal phase with the same rank setting from rank 1 to rank 9, the second to last rank is Celestial mortal ranks from rank 1 to rank 9, the last and final rank is immortal celestial mortal ranks from rank 1 to rank9. You have to understand these ranks are all developed without any QI at all it is all body cultivation it is created from all the determination to develop your body to its best. Now the ranks that have to do with the Cultivation with QI starts with Spirit gathering or QI gathering since you never before you have been born have you absorbed Qi from heaven and earth at any other time.

Chapter 7 time to get the rest of body cultivation done Grandpa since we are back at the manor I would like to ask you if it possible for me to be able to cultivate in my room in the next steps into body cultivation Souske said, well we are back and you do seem to be already on route to the cultivation of the body is important to any cultivator Grandpa said, then does that mean I can be in secluded cultivation in my room for the next few months is that a yes or no Souske said, okay no need to hound me yes I approve of your own descion so go and cultivate and see what you can get so far Grandpa said. Since you have approved of my need to cultivate then could I have the weapons I can put them in my storage ring also the tomes on the basics of how to use the weapons as well Souske said, so you want to train in your weapons as well I can¡¯t really say that doesn¡¯t make sense so here are the tomes and weapons I hope when you come out you are decent with your weapons when you come out Grandpa said, that idea is in thought with both of us great minds think alike okay Grandpa iam going to head to my room now I will see you in three months hope things come out worth it Souske said. The rest I will be typing is all Souske De Blade all own POV so I hope you guys don¡¯t get confused when you read this chapter. Time to get this show on the road three months in the real world while inside the temporal Manor will be considered 90 months instead since the time dilation is 1 day in the real world is 1 month inside, each month has 30 hour days to 30 days each year is 12 months¡¯ equals to 360 days a year, this all adds up to around seven and half years inside the Temporal mansion with only three months will have passed in the real world. As I have now entered my room and locked the door I place the Temporal mansion in the center of my room and enter it, the mansion might look small on the outside but its huge inside about the size of 10 football fields it¡¯s pretty big I head over to the only door with a green light blinking next to it, going inside the room I sat down in the middle of the room and start doing the next step in body cultivation Vein cultivation considering the human body has around 120 thousand veins, consider this you have to break down every one of your veins and rebuild it over and over rinse and repeat, but the pain associated with it is not pleasant in the least, for this to be done it was repeated ten thousand times each time you tear your veins and rebuild it makes them tougher and wider to help circulate all your blood vessels and Qi later one when you do QI cultivation, this process has taken a year in time to be done most would only do this a few dozen time but idiots like me went far beyond the call of duty. Since the vein cultivation took me a year to get done because of all the pain we now head into the next step in are body cultivation that is bone cultivation and in the human body there are 206 bones so breaking them in to powered form then nothing puffs, this process will go on for ten thousand intervals again just like all the other step you guy who are reading might as well call me the king of masochism since no sane person will be willing to do this to their body in a volunteer way but there is me iam willing to do it to make my body as tough as possible this is not earth we don¡¯t have a few things but there are pill medicine here but no x-ray machines and no surgeons aye know all the basic things in most hospital would have, this is the main way for all who want to cultivate to have the most durable bodies so iam not the only one to be doing things but might be the only one that goes to this extreme, the whole cultivation of the bones took me around six months of constant breaking down and rebuilding the bones in my body it was definitely not eh enjoyable experience. Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road. The parts of the vein and bone are done now to the bone marrow cultivation this cultivation might not be as tough as the other but still your pretty much breaking down all your blood vessels and purifying it, the point on vaporizing all the blood in your marrow and circulating all the fresh purified blood over and over, this would be considered heating and condensing all of the uncleaned parts in the blood, this self-cooking is also not something everyone would volunteer for either, all of these action was done with old time rhythm of ten thousand times rinse and repeat, the bone marrow cultivation has taken around six months to complete. Now for the final step in body cultivation it is time to reprocess your brain, first step to do is form a bead in your brain its call the mind bead you have to keep yourself sane somehow right, when your brain gets reduced to molecular sized particles and rebuilt over and over if you didn¡¯t have a mind bead you would go absolutely insane during the first breakdown and rebuild, in conclusion to all of this in the rinse and repeat habit, the whole event took only six months any longer and no one else might as well ever call themselves human anymore, the brain in the has gotten bigger but all you have more mental toughing so any action of someone to try to read your mind will be pretty hard since now you have built up eh natural barrier to such things, with this final step in the cultivation of the body done, I have achieved the peak rank in peak mortal rank the next time I do these steps again after I start cultivation QI then I will be working on the Earth mortal ranks. In the end all of these steps in cultivation of the body has taken me two and half years to get done which is to say almost a month outside in the real world has passed so far, with two moth left in my closed door training the next step is training in the weapons I still have to get that done as well, in the temporal mansion I should have five years¡¯ time to be able to train in all of my weapons to decent levels Chapter 8 an old mans thoughts of the past From now on the icon for Souske De Blade will be * after he finish his talking, for Grandpa it¡¯s this icon ^ when he¡¯s finished talking. {{{Markus De Blade Aka Grandpa or Grandfather}}} The days seem to go by just so slow with the villa being very quiet as of late after my grandson went into closed door cultivation I have nothing much to occupy myself anymore^ doing all the old chores can only take up so much time and having a whole villa full of servants makes even less work for an old man like me to do even if I wanted to do something^ I wake up at the crack of dawn everyone morning doing my routine in hand to hand combat^ then do exercise such as you know push up sit ups crunches then doing the finisher six mile run this is how I start my morning^ after all the exercise routine are done I head to the large vegetable fields and clear new land if there are need or weed the land around the growing field this is what can keep me busy see all this weed all over a 60 hector of land is something that can make any man want to cry the land is as far as the eye can see^ being a farmer is not so bad, but the commendation from the king all those years ago made me into the rank of count I wonder daily what was the worth of having this rank. anyways since its only one step above eh knight rank^ considering if you had the rank of Knight you would be privileged such things as being allowed to have 2 personal squires, also 50 men at arms included deed to land with 20 hectors of land granted by rank not considering the size of the house that is already granted to you from the beginning^ in conclusion the rank of count only allows me to have a Villa and 60 hectors of land plus knights that are in my area can swear fealty to me this is limited to the maximum of 6 knights with all there dependent and loyal men as well^ now counts own personal men at arms can be limited to around 200 men can be purely infantry, spearmen, archers, cavalry, last but not least heavy Calvary^ this may all seem pretty good with all of these forces you can have but if you didn¡¯t know you have to pay train and equip all of the men that swear their loyalty to you this can be really drain on your own personal funds. Ah my youth all the thing I had done was see a lot of death miracles and hardship that would make any man be will to never go there^ being the poor bastard I was back then if I had money I would of chosen something else then the army but back then it was the only place paying well covering for gear, food, lodging, all the main things in life you need food and money^ starting as a poor infantry soldier at the ripe old age of 16 which is considered a man¡¯s age in this country and in any other country in the world^ being in a villa wasn¡¯t something I imagined for myself, the imagination of a child my age then was a lot smaller because I was from a poor family my father was a merchant escort as his job but he was rarely around Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators!he taught me my skills in the saber also the left me the tomes on cultivation with such things left to me was to become a cultivator but being one wasn¡¯t as easy you need a lot of resources^ back then when I joined the army I was in body cultivation was peak mortal rank, now my QI cultivation rank was mid rank Apprentice it was okay strong but you know not enough to shake the world^ back then I thought I was the shit being this strong and learning the Martial arts and saber kills to mid rank was awesome even though the saber tomes was only in brown rank tomes can be ranked from black, grey, green, brown, red, blue, purple, copper, silver, gold, Platinum, purple platinum would be highest for mortal cultivators not consider the ones for after you reach the rank of fighter it begins a whole different class of skills. I guess I never told you guys where iam in this world of Methados I like in the kingdom of Greystone north, north, east, providence next to the mountains nick named abyss filled with all Qi monsters of all ranks up to peak fighter rank, I live outside the town of diversion with a population of 2000 residents I live outside of town in my villa a few miles away^ now there is a city nearby its name is Thorsten distance from town 45 miles away would take a half a day to ride there with horse cart or about 8 hours if its only on horseback, it is the only biggest commerce hub around the city population is around 300 thousand people, the city is surround by 20 towns other towns nearby, the towns near the mountain are the frontlines if the monsters ever have there once in a decade stamped towards the city. to this issue all the knights on the border of the mount abyss job is to watch out for monster activity, also there is another country to the north, north, west, of are border with mount abyss the distance from are border to the kingdom of Baltis is about 500 miles away they can reach are borders at any time, in the past 40 years or so when I was the young poor infantry man we had a war with the kingdom of Baltis, even six years ago when my grandson was born we still had battle and skirmishes with Baltis my son Gerald De Blade with his wife Madison De Blade when they went to war then they still have not returned in all this time I feel bad for my grandson for never ever seeing or even knowing his parents. times such as this to be sitting here in the backyard drinking good wine and reflecting abut the past what is there else for an old man to do, the first month has gone by already still 2 more months to till my grandson is out of closed door cultivation. Chapter 9 Learning where the pointy end is lmao For new readers there are icons to follow while you read MC thought icon is ( ) Grandpa thought icon is { } icon for MC to talk is * this Grandpa icon to talk is this ^ don¡¯t get confused guys and gals. (((( Souske De Blade))) I guess it¡¯s time to start learning which end of all my weapons are the pointy end might not want to hurt myself like losing body part before I even know how the weapons are use in the first place*, the first weapon up is probably going to be the swords although I was not born ambidextrous, I will slowly teach both of my hands to do the same strike and moves since you never know if you ever will lose eh arm or eh hand this is the world where life and death happen really quick*, the swords have a weight of around 30 jinn¡¯s a piece its extremely heavy since I am not going to use any of my cultivation to help me one bit*, doing yoga, jogging, running, push up, sit up, crunches, squats*, all the basics in making your body more stronger and durable considering this world isn¡¯t earth I don¡¯t have to hold back on being careful on worrying about growth stigma*, working out boot camp style for months between taking time to read the tomes involved with the basics of swordplay*, these are all the basic thrust, stab, slash, parry, block*, these moves are all simple you take them one move at a time going really slow so you don¡¯t cut yourself then slowly speed up the moves till they all change and blend into one solid dance in a way*, Just getting to the point of going with the moves half speed is a lot of work since eventually you have to tell your brain don¡¯t think and just move with the rhythm you feel is best at the time*, the rhythm helps set the stage in way that you never notice it all seems just what it is a dance but eh lethal dance the sword will change hands on and off with this you are not stuck with one style but multiples even if there the same moves and action but they will be done differently with separate hands one slash with your right hand may be easy but the slash with your left hand may not be so each and every style is not the same in the least*, while you have spent all this time learning the swordplay in basic and blended the moves into your own style but as the old saying says you can learn the sword in eh year but will you ever find enlightenment in its grasp of your hand in your lifetime*. The old saying does have a lot of merit but no has ever said that to me they say getting enlightenment with any weapon you first need to learn your swordplay from one sect or another or eh martial clan at best would help you become very skilled*, in a lot of ways that it is very true but for me that was eh different matter I was secluded in this Temporal Mansion I found enlightenment multiple time because originally I was from earth and I studied martial arts as eh hobby so learning a few different styles and form of swordplay went through my head a lot from one slash to one parry to another stab eventually I found my own personal style*, I have taken my experience in European sword play mixed with a bit of Asian spice a little of Chinese here a little bit of Japanese here a pinch of Korean there this almost sound like iam making a dish for food and not some type of skill for swordplay*, the forms started out all about stabbing thrust and parry with some blocking it evolved into more of slash of different form from an opening to quick strikes to slow heavy damage dealing moves to solid defensive move it was almost like being eh tiger tracking my prey and pouncing on it*, this goes into the point of always being fast with a lot of dexterity you have to have the sword moves but also the footwork has to be able to blend into each and every strike and defend*, Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. I considered that with the year I spent in learning the swordplay from the tomes till I fell into the world of constant enlightenment that I have forgotten the need to make my own skill with movement as paramount to any fight since you will live or die with weather you moved at the right time or not*, I guess things started with doing the side to side step like you do on the rope ladder on the football field*, then you incorporate glides into each step left to right turns into jumps side to side then leaps*, this also is add into jogging and running you do flips hops cartwheels basically any motion that you can get into that can apply to any situation you just never know when a weapon will hit you from which angle*, while I was doing this all looking like I am doing cirrus act and all I was actually asked by the mansion that if I would like to do any change to the room like increase or decrease the gravity in the room*, I was actually stomped for a few minutes after I got that information I never thought that the mansion actually had these kind of functions*, after about an hour of thinking it over I thought that increasing the gravity of the room time 2 gravity each time till I can¡¯t breathe well will make me know my limits*, that was what I did for the whole next year of training getting use to the gravity increase till you can¡¯t run anymore not even twitch eh finger would be impossible*, so in conclusion doing this over and over even in my sleep high chances of killing myself you know but it made me stronger without weight at all since your own body weight will be increased to what ten times the weight to one hundred time the weight*. So the sword in the beginning might weight only 30 jinn¡¯s instead in the end of all the gravity increase training weight around thirty thousand jinn¡¯s a piece if I was dual wielding it was around sixty thousand jinn can you imagine how much that would weight just to move into any swings slash stab parry or even defend move might not even be able to even move it*, by some unknown fate I was able to get use to the gravity to the point I could use the swords in all my forms one by one till I was at full speed pretty much call me a monster now huh*, with all of this work and effort I perfected my chosen forms in the style I wanted to use if I traveled the world*, this finally winded down after I hit the two additional year mark in the Temporal mansion so I have been here for four and half years with only three years left to learn the Saber the spear and throwing knifes plus the axes but with the experiment here towards the sword will help my training in the other weapons just as easy to understand*. Chapter 10 is the Saber or the spear more suicidal you decide ((( Souske De Blade))) Ah the next weapon are my Sabers, but I have to meditate on this it¡¯s a weapon that would be consider a feral animal in itself never backs down never retreats always kill what¡¯s in front of it no mercy for its enemy¡¯s, so if you do consider training in the use of the saber the tome says there are only a few basic moves they are slashing left then right chopping left chopping right stabbing left to right last but least barely use parry or deflect an enemy¡¯s weapon, reading the tome and understanding the nature of this weapon pretty much means if it is drawn from the scabbard it has to eliminate all opposition or the wielder might as well just die, its different from eh in one context with a sword you can charge dodge or retreat, with a Saber it¡¯s all about taking all comers and make then either bow in pure surrender or kill them all, this makes it so you have to change your mind set before you were as fast as the wind flexible like the sea , now it¡¯s more in line of eh hurricane or tornado or tsunami pretty much means get the fuck out of the way. The clearing of the mind and thoughts are most important if you are not in the right mind set you can do the stances and forms wrong which means injury for a lot of plain dumb reasons, going with the slashes chop parry guard in slow snail moves each one to be done precisely almost like a mime on the street, this will have to be done with weeks of practice till you can pick up the speed to half perfected then pushing it to full speed were the chances of messing up is absolutely possible, consider that all of these steps have taken over three moths time just to make sure each and every moves has been perfected and it has turned into muscle memory, most would say it should of taken years and it should but were in temporal space room so I guess the laws that apply to reason went out the window a long time ago, Time to make things as interesting like I did with the sword training it¡¯s time to kick on the increase to gravity training, the swords weighted around 30 jinn¡¯s right and had eh 48 inches in length, the sabers on the other hand was also 48 inches in length but weight twice as much at 60 jinn¡¯s in weight in per saber, and added to become eh dual wielded weapon in emergency situations with gravity going from the gradual ten times effect up to the one hundred times effect this is pretty pure suicide training, I never said I was sane when I decided to be reborn in another person¡¯s dead body who in their sane mind would do that right, The switching from left hand to right hand in execution of exact stance is more of an imbalance dance until the stance are mixed in and out of order till you pretty much have a composed waltz in itself the dance of death might as well be beautiful right if you¡¯re going to die you might as well see something that makes your mind to be mesmerized, this whole training in the sabers will be eh length on one whole year with continual increase in gravity while doing basic exercises and saber stances till you can move like the wind in one hundred times gravity or not even twitch eh finger at all the harder it is to move the stronger your stances will be with free movement makes it seem you have trained in over a decade time instead of one year.

That is an another year has passed in this temporal mansion, I still have the spear and throwing knifes and axes to still train in ah time is so short only got two more years left till the three months¡¯ time in the real world is up, here we go again meditation at its finest time to clear your mind and mood since the next weapon you will train in is the spear, between meditation and reading the tomes on the basic moves of the spear you have to consider this time to really contemplate the meaning behind each move while the sword and saber is easy to understand, since in my life on earth I trained in both weapons extensively so getting use to them and making moves from my memory is easier than the spear I have had experience in it on earth but it¡¯s hard to find a really good spear on earth worth its money. The first moves that the tome for the spear said was to thrust the spear steady and try to be as comfortable with the weapon as best you can since it is an extension of your reach to your enemy¡¯s, besides the thrust there are different moves in slashing with the spear tip and multiple styles in which combination of strike makes the best moves to force the enemy to lose their defense or other moves that are made to skip all the fancy stuff and straight up kill, in considering all of these stances you have to consider the weight of the spear itself with the length of nine and half feet with eh ten inch spearhead more consider on lance instead of eh spear, in full measurements of 124 inches in length make this really a weapon of intimidation and reach, the weight is around 2000 jinn¡¯s this is pretty heavy for eh weapon as it is but if the regular training is really hard then consider the training with gravity increase as well now this is absolutely insane to the max. Spending the next two years understanding the spear and training in gravity took up all the time that was left in the temporal mansion, getting every stance down perfectly took time and effort, then we add in all the gravity makes things eh thousand times worse it more in consideration of wielding eh mountain as the gravity pick up little by little till your squashed flat by your own weapon and can even feel half you bone are breaking from it weight increase, you can¡¯t move much less breath half the time so if you consider the other weapons like the sword, saber, the spears wins hands down in the category of purely insane weapons to train under high gravity, with all the last stances and forms being done I hear above me the time in temporal mansion is now seven and half years have passed with the equal of three months in reality in the real world has gone by, I stop in the middle of eh stance and was actually scratching my heard with the bewilderment has the three months has it gone by that fast already. Chapter 11 whats that smell The icon for thought for MC ( ) Grandpa thought icon { } the talking icon for MC is * this for Grandpa is ^ this icon this will show in all the upcoming chapters. {{Markus De Blade}} The days have gone by so slow, I wonder if the day is the day my grandson has come out of his close door training, the routine I have done daily does make your body stay fit but has nothing to do with the mind to kill time, not that we can literally kill time it¡¯s just an old expression older then this nation was ever created, maybe I should take my Saber training more important since if you get to rusty it can cost you your life, in this world life is cheap as the dust in the desert blown by the wind, well I might as well start the stances and forms that go with my trust Saber eh weapon that has been with me for over 40 years of my life I wonder every other day which one was getting to old the wielder or was it the weapon, the sheen the saber still has makes the lethal weapons, it is but there is still eh large amount of scratches and dings all over the Saber sharp end, In a sense the Saber is sort of like me an old man that has a lot of history with old wounds and the old memory that still give him nightmares in some night out of the week, makes me wonder if what I did in my youth was actually of any worth since all I have is the experience the nightmares from every important battle, when you recollect the bodies of your friends and foes alike the blood pools the ground soaking it up like eh sponge so even if you walk around the bodies your feet still sink into the ground from the over soaked ground became a field of blood, my boots were becoming fowl with the cold blood of either my comrades or enemy¡¯s, or was it the smell or that my hands where shaking this was consider the day I lost my soldier cheery I had killed over ten of the enemy troops that charged are left flank in with my column number 15th I was in squad 6 last man in the group the newest rookie at 16 and never been to war you pretty much eh virgin to war, this is why I said this was my cherry popped after this battle made me get over the harsh sight of death of friend and ally alike as well as all the soldiers that aim their swords to my death should I have stood there and leave my neck open to my afterlife. The lesson I had learn from this battle alone harden my mind to the harsh nature of war it all and absolutely unforgiving to everyone is just a part of the cycle of life and death. ((Souske De Blade)) After the echo of the last news from the temporal mansion, I was standing there pretty much blinking for five minutes digesting the news that it was times up and it¡¯s time to get out three months was up, I guess it¡¯s time to gather up all of my things that have been laid around all over the floor I guess this might as well be called my room, it¡¯s not like I was ever a neat freak with ocd but being in this room for seven and half years, this took me a while gathering everything from whetstones to rubbing clothe and oil from cleaning the swords, Saber, and the spear I was training with for the last two years, I guess the time it took to clean up the room was estimated in time to around 15 minutes, as I have I moved all the weapons into my storage ring so walking out empty handed just like how I walked into the room originally, Unauthorized use: this story is on Amazon without permission from the author.

While I was walking out of the temporal mansion I stopped at my door and unlatched the locked op the door, I pulled the left side door back inside my room while I walked out, while looking around at the small garden outside my door with all different colored flowers spread out all over the place makes you wonder if eh painter lost his mind or the gardeners was having a field day back here, while I looked around to look for the path to head up to the front of the villa and to see if my Grandpa was around, while I was walking the wind picked up the breeze picking up the smell of the fields around me was something I have not smelled in seven and half years in the temporal mansion, in reality was only three months in the outside world it wasn¡¯t long but to me it feels like I have been gone for a lifetime instead of only a few months, while I was getting closer to the walkway arch from the resident side of the villa, (I hear my grandpa gruff voice say what is that smell of what is this sent smells like a freaken nest of dead verpro slugs ah the smell my mood for this good wine is starting to lose the mood,) I kept walk but was also sniffing the air to understand what my grandpa was complaining about then I noticed the sent was really close to me I sniff harder then I sniff my arm and armpit then I almost died on the spot, I found the evidence what the smell was it was me oh shit I smell like a bathroom from any of the highway rest stop stall with everyone of having everyone that went inside take the smelliest shit that can come out of anyone, it took me a few minutes to recall that I found where the water sink was and toilet but I never found a shower stall at all in the room I was in at the temporal mansion so for seven and half year I never showered once so I guess I smell from all the different cultivation I had done since I had a mountain full of black filth that came from my body from each and every time I did a step in cultivation, I guess I should have looked for a bath as soon as I can out of the temporal mansion, but I still headed towards the front of the villa and saw my grandpa sitting down with eh cup and a large bottle of wine, I said hello grandpa I am back the cultivation went well, ( he responded that you must be what I smelled before I think it will be a better idea if you go take a bath before we have a in depth conversation about what you were doing for the last three months.)

The roar of the enjoyment of well loosened bones what else is there for an old man to get limber if not crack all your joints like eh twisting pretzel makes your blood rush and your young again you feel like your 30s again^, but then again when I made it the Qi cultivation rank of low Senor student rank my age sort of froze it is a rule that in this world for all cultivators that when you hit the ranks into senior students your body and age will stay that way till you die^, I left the army in my retirement at the QI rank of low rank fighter, that was six years ago right after my only grandson was born and also the time my son and his wife were called to the battlefield again they got no break and we have received no word of them since six years ago^, the sun is just peeking out the stretches and cracking of the joints are done I hear some foots steps coming from my left I turns around an standing there is my Grandson^, my eyes blink a few times before my brain finally kicked in, in response to the sight of my grandson, I opened my mouth and said grandson why are you up so early don¡¯t you usually not wake up till a few hours after the sun has well crested for the morning?. ((Souske De Blade Aka grandson)) This morning seems to be so fresh I opened my eyes and the fresh air breathe into my nostrils and my head and lungs feel so refreshed this morning, pulling the blankets off of me, then I sat up at the edge of the bed making sure I was awake enough to get up without falling down, with that over with I head over to the water basin and grab my toothbrush with a little bit of toothpaste and did the morning routine of brush and gargle, you have to have decent breath to talk to anyone in the morning, if you are all wondering why I have the modern day toothbrush and toothpaste like anyone on earth?, it was created here in Methados over 600 years ago must of be someone from earth that made it here into the past and introduced the brush and paste, well now that morning refreshing up is over with lets head outside and see if the old man is up he should be by my guess like any old fart does if this offends any readers of the ages past middle age sorry but this is just part of life that you all know too well, (alright since all of that is over with lets head over to the training yard,) (walking to the training yard didn¡¯t take so long while I got there in no time I saw Grandpa just finishing his stretches,) as I got within 5 feet of Grandpa he turned around looked at me but I got a blank look from like he don¡¯t know what¡¯s he looking at, then the question came out of his mouth asking why I am up this early when I usually don¡¯t wake up till like 8 am instead of now 4am^, it took me a few seconds to get over the quest and my answer is after being in the closed door training for three month my habit of waking up changed so you will see me more often up at this time every morning from now on*, ah so you found your own early bird habit eh not bad grandson about time you got into eh decent habit good to start young^, okay now that we got the morning greetings over with you said you want to see how far my training in my weapons got for me within the three months close door training right?*, yes that is what I said yesterday, so do you want to do a few stretches first to warm up since going to direct movement is bad for muscles and bones?^, yes that¡¯s sounds like a good idea Grandpa give me a few minutes here*, no problem take your time it¡¯s better to be well warmed up then just do all the moves you were going to do and get hurt^, okay then ah! Oh! muscles stretch the sounds of groans and grunts go on for a while but this didn¡¯t take any time longer than 15 minutes*, Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. now that all the stretches are over with so which weapon do you want me to show you first there are three of them Sword, Saber, Spear, *, hmm let me think for eh sec hmm the swords sound like a good start as any it is the most basic weapon of any person for personal protection^, okay you said the Sword Right Grandpa*, yup that¡¯s what I said let¡¯s start with the sword basics of the basics weapon^, (the sword it is then I pull out one of my swords from my storage ring in my left hand,) (it was the shadow panther sword awesome looking sword if I don¡¯t say so myself right,) (with the sword in my right and I take about 30 steps back from Grandpa and started to do the basic stances and forms with the sword at slow speed showing that I knew the basics very clearly without any problems,) {hmm, his stances and forms are very solid, I don¡¯t really see any mistakes in any of his moves this really, shouldn¡¯t be possible for only rough training for a few months, don¡¯t make you a genius with weapons,} alright grandson that enough it looks like you have the sword down well it¡¯s a bit shocking on how well you can use the sword in such a short amount of time but I am happy for you over this luck^, now let¡¯s see the Saber my favorite weapon left see if you got that down as well? Hmm, ^, so you said the saber right then okay*, (I place my shadow panther sword pack into my left storage ring, then I pulled out my Demon Wolf Saber it was also a nice weapon if I don¡¯t say so myself well worth the purchase,) okay grandpa I have my demon Wolf Saber here do you want me to start doing the basics for you? * let me see if you know your saber as well as your sword since some people are always better in some weapons then others^, okay since you have given me the go ahead then here I go*, (with the Saber in my hand I started flowing into each basic stance right after the other like I was walking through water with a little ripples going all round me*,) {ah he¡¯s got the basics for the Saber down pat it¡¯s almost like he¡¯s a fish in water,} I see you have gotten the basics in the Saber as well down really well, now to the last weapon the Spear right?^ yup I do have the spear that was my last weapon I trained in Grandpa*, ( with that I placed my Demon Wolf Saber back into my left storage ring, then I pulled out my Spear or should I say Flame Dragon spear, from bottom of the sear shaft to the tip of the spearhead it was 10 foot long weight around 2000 jinn this weapon was if not absolutely intimidating, just the sight of the spear say get out of the wat fakers or die a dogs death,) okay grandpa here is my spear the Flame Dragon Spear thud it touches the ground and there is a mini crater on the ground, (oh dam this thing really knows how to make an entrance,)* {the spear in my grandson hand was huge it was intimidating I am still wondering how he¡¯s even holding it then I remembered yesterday he told me after his mortal body cultivation was done he had the strength of 100k jinn, now what a monster my grandson is at only six year of age dam!^} (I started doing the basic stances and forms that are part of the Spear¡¯s skill the spear was heavy but in my hands without using any of my cultivation it only felt like it was a 20 jinn spear not the 2000 jinn it really was the stances and moves flowed like I was in the eye of eh tornado for every stab slash and spin to the left and right if not strikes in the 180 for or the 360 return stab like a tornado always raging iam never going to stop everything will be flattened in my way,) {usually doing spear stances and forms are slow and subtle but my grandson was more like a raging storm of eh tornado raging ^,} alright stop now I have seen enough^, Ah! Huff! That was exhilarating but I stopped the spear in mid stance and form and placed it back into my left storage ring,) okay Grandpa I have placed the Spear back into my storage ring, so how was I? was it any good? * you were really good to the point you almost blew me away into the next providence^, so we are done with me showing you all my training do you have anything else you want me to do? * no there isn¡¯t anything else I wanted you to show me take a rest^, then see me at midday we are going to have eh sparing match^. Armoredfrost here thanks again all my readers for following this writter that doesn''t even know how to write eh decent story, still this story a slow and steady growth story not like all the OP MC story, the MC is OP but he has decided to limit himself he will be a shadow in the world then a nuke but when he does blow up the world will be shaken to the core. So guys keep on handing me ideas also got any thought on what names on some charaters i can use for the towns people and the soldiers and knights that are under Markus De Blade MC Grandfather do keep the idea and suggestion comming it will help alot. Chapter 14 so you want to spar huh? The Icons for thoughts and conversations will be MC thought icon ( ) Grandpa icon { } MC talk icon * Grandpa icon ^ { it is now midday already were is that stinking brat he couldn¡¯t of forgotten that we have a sparring match already he can¡¯t be that lazy right,} { while I wait here and continue to be frustrated, I hear footsteps walking over its my grandson , about time the idiot got here already its nice out today, but serious learn to be punctual at time seriously,} ( I think I maybe a bit late, while walking to the training yard Grandpa sees me walking over, his face look like a sower lemon,) ( come on now I never said I was perfect, still I made it to the training yard around the right time give me a break old man,) ( I walk up to the front of my Grandfather and bow deeply in respect say greeting Grandpa we are to spar right?) Hmm, about time you got here did you want me to wait till next century, before your lazy ass got here, I mean come on now it¡¯s not like the training yard is that far from your room^, um sorry grandpa I was in the restroom nature won vs my correct time to get here since I have no reason to go to the restroom now can we start are sparring match then right*, well since you are here then not here at all then, I guess we can get this thing started^, okay then what weapon will we be doing for this sparring match its either the Sword, Saber, or Spear,* the Saber then since my favorite weapon is the Saber^, okay the Saber right*, yes the Saber^, here is your weapon catch^, (I saw a wooden shaped weapon flying my way I caught it, it was a wooden training Saber,) so we are using training weapons then Grandpa?* yup we are using training weapons since real weapons will be placed with eh high chance of to doing much injury to each other^, That actually makes a lot of logical sense grandpa, let¡¯s get this this sparring session started*, (Grandpa and I got into are stances, I got into the basic stance to begin saber in front of me gripped two handed relaxed ready to strike or defend at any time, grandpa was more aggressive stance with his saber in his right hand out at about the level with his head,) ( he charged me first with the forward straight aiming to slash me from my left shoulder to my right hip,) ( in response I took a controlled step back with my left foot and brought up Saber in my two hands and parry my grandpa strike with eh glance deflective blow of my own,) { hmm he seem to have good instinct¡¯s to split second thought to get his targeted body part away and being prepared with a return strike that blew back my saber it was cleanly executed very nice,} { now for my rebound slash from the blow it was aimed for his stomach it was and undercut slash,} ( I was blown back as well from deflecting that first strike of grandpa, I see the next strike coming as on the lower grip towards and upper cut slash aiming for my middle, you have to counter it right or you will be at eh greater advantage,) ( after I had resettled my unstable footing I brought my right foot forward having my Saber now one handed in my right hand, my saber slash down on my grandpa saber that was coming up, the strength of the upper cut slash was pretty strong, my slash was eh counter for his lower hand strike,) { let¡¯s see if I can catch this brat off balance with this strike it should be an effective trike while he is still off balance, but to my luck wasn¡¯t great for this match he got his balance back pretty quick and he countered me with a direct power slash to my saber coming upwards, has got good response to dealing with tricky situation and fast recovery very good a fighter need to always be ready to counter your enemy,} Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. (these kind of moves go on for the next 6 hours, good lord when will this old man be satisfied with my ability to fight well enough to keep my life if I was out in the world, then again I am only 6 years of age now so that shouldn¡¯t be important right?) {huff, groans, this old body of mine haven¡¯t done anything this tiring in a while this feel more like full day battle then a sparring match with my grandson, man how hard is it to catch this brat off his defense it¡¯s like fighting a scorpion that keeps whipping it stingers at you so that you can¡¯t even injure it,} { this is becoming more and more of exasperated fighters having a full out battle then eh sparring match just because he¡¯s 2 feet shorter then me makes me work a bit a lot of bending to get my strikes in,} ( this old man better bugger off soon or I have to use my vanguard routine I developed in the temporal mansion, ) { let me get this fight over with my hurricane war path slashes the fight should end with these moves man I need a break,} ( my grandpa moves have speed up and me defending them off is getting harder is this his final finishing moves to finish this sparring match with his win, I don¡¯t think so Vanguard strikes clear the path for the warlord is here, my Grandpa slashes were like a horizontal hurricane was hitting me while my Vanguard slashes were a mix of left to right slashes with a few backhand slashes mixed into it to make the enemy perplexed about where the next slash will hit till I hit them in the left kidney,) {my hurricane war path moves seem to be putting my grandson in bind for a while now, then he started doing a routine I have never seen before it was like his hits where every were I couldn¡¯t even tell where half of his strikes would be hitting till I let out a loud grunt that was involuntary, one of his strikes hit my left kidney holy shit that hurt jeered this is a sparring match not the battlefield you know,} ( while all of my moves were made to do a lot of damage they also can distract expert like my Grandpa till he doesn¡¯t even know where the hit will land but from the sound of that loud groan I heard from my Grandpa it seems the match is not a checkmate I won he¡¯s in no shape to keep this going,) {AH! Dam that hurts, this is definitely my time to say you won,} but this is not over next sparring match I will win don¡¯t get to cocky now that you beat an old man like just wait till you meet someone younger then me then you will be sorry,^ eh Grandpa do I hear old spoil sport complaining about losing to a kid like me what happen to your integrity at a warrior, hmm,* alright that not important you won so the next match should be tomorrow but with this bruise you gave me it will be a week from now unless something comes up so far,^ well if you want to take time and heal up for the then it is cool with me I am going to go back out and hunt maybe also start my Qi cultivation as well nature may help me get enlighten to QI cultivation,* okay so your saying you¡¯re going to go back out hunting that fine with me, the cultivation though you need to be really careful, if you do it in a place that is noticed by Qi monsters it might damage your cultivation, so take it seriously to fins a secluded place that is as quiet as possible,^ with that advices you have given me I will take greater be cautions while I am out in the Abyss Mountains, I will set out tomorrow morning probably ad dawn like I was up today,*.
