Novel Full Chapter 37 Realms
It appears that Heinz was right! His body has already adapted after being tortured by those two potions before.
However, he can’t simply admit it…
‘It must be the sudden increase in my attributes. There was no way I can adapt just by suffering from a couple of potions…’ Kyle organized his thoughts as he tried to not focus on the pain brought by the Anti-Corruption Force Potion.
After quite some time, the pain all over his body is starting to subside. Mr. Heinz seem to be aware of this as he whispered to his ears. “Enter the Phantasm State.”
That whisper felt like a shout in his ears as he realized just now that his hearing sense has been amplified. 𝑖𝑟𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝘮
Without any hesitation, Kyle entered the Phantasm State…
As soon as he did this, the subsiding pain suddenly returned like a gushing river! The intense pain surprised him as his Phantasm State was automatically canceled as a result. However, removing his Phantasm State didn’t mean that the pain would disappear as well!
Heinz’s eyes lit up after seeing this result.
“It’s finally here… It’s the final phase of the potion, Kyle… You can endure it. You won’t just reform your incredible physique but this will also increase your magic zone.”
Kyle wanted to curse his master again but this time, he noticed some changes brought by his system.
He immediately pulled out his character panel while in pain and confirmed that there is indeed something new!
[ Name: Kyle Marshall ]
[ Attributes: Strength 4.38, Agility 4.42, Intelligence 10.28, Vitality 0.85 ]
[ Dark Arts: Spell Dispersion Lv2, Ghost Hand Lv5, Incorruptible Body Lv1 ]
[ Available Energy: 243 ]
For some reason, he learned another Dark Art! Furthermore, his vitality had actually increased by 0.35 points!
At this point, he immediately focused on his 3rd spell light and decided to increase its level! He can feel that by increasing its level, the surging pain in his body would be easily accommodated by his strong body art or technique!
[ Consume 30 energy points to improve Incorruptible Body? ]
“Yes!” Kyle answered without wasting any time. He doesn’t have the time to complain about the expensive consumption!
As soon as he answered, he immediately felt that the pain has weakened a lot so he decided to continue.
[ Consume 60 energy points to improve Incorruptible Body? ]
[ Consume 120 energy points to improve Incorruptible Body? ]
“Yes…”
As expected, the pain has become bearable after leveling it up… Although he can still feel his achings muscles, it feels like his body has become numb already.
He then checked his character panel to see his energy points.
[ Available Energy: 33 ]
Seeing the remaining points, Kyle wryly smiled as he was truly lucky for being able to extract several corpses in this laboratory.
“H-how…”
While Kyle was starting to calm down, he suddenly heard Heinz’s shocked voice.
Mr. Heinz didn’t fail to notice that Kyle had somehow fully absorbed the effects of the potion…
It was incomprehensible even for him!
Although the contents of the potion have enough mystical properties to reach the limit of the Intermediate Realm of the Incorruptible Body, it doesn’t mean that the consumer will really reach this realm!
Heinz is already happy if Kyle has successfully accommodated the Incorruptible Body even at the lowest Elementary Realm since that would be the normal result even with all the requirements he and his master have listed. 𝓪.𝒄
He didn’t expect that Kyle’s physique was so monstrous that it can fully absorb the effects of the potion without wasting any of it.
Kyle suddenly recalled the books about potions he read before and realized why Heinz was so surprised. However, it was already too late so he can only own it…
After calming his breath, he replied with a tired voice. “I think I’m really lucky, Master Heinz… Ahem… I mean, your potions are truly effective. From the Spirit Enhancement, the Idle Mind, and this Anti-Corruption Force… All of them are of the highest quality out there.”
Heinz gulped as he didn’t think that his potions were that impressive. Since he was the one who made it and he also has decades of experience in Dark Alchemy, he obviously knows the limits of his potions.
Nevertheless, before he could express his thoughts, Kyle quickly shifted the topic.
“Master Heinz, I just felt an increase in my life force. Did you not mention that only the Alchemy Arts of another Arcane Path can give such an effect on us?” He asked.
At this question, Heinz didn’t seem surprised as he answered with a mocking tone. “Heh… That increase is negligible… It’s already amazing that you felt that slight increase but do you think that that amount can really increase your lifespan? That might even be a natural vitality increase since you’re still young.”
Kyle was stunned for a moment before gently nodding. Indeed, he’s still young and hasn’t reached his peak vitality yet. Also, the addition of 0.35 points is indeed pretty low…
Nevertheless, this made him aware that some potions or techniques of the Dark Arts can still provide a small increase in his vitality. The rule that says the Dark Alchemy can’t increase the life force of the practitioners of the Dark Arts isn’t absolute.
‘Although the amount is extremely small, it will accumulate if I continue to gather them.’ Kyle thought as he stood up slowly.
Heinz inspected Kyle’s body for a moment before shaking his head.
“It seems that you’ve really reached the Intermediate Realm… Go ahead and return to your room to rest. Don’t enter the Phantasm State for now. Wait for another hour or two. You might be feeling fine but you’re Phantasm State is currently exhausted.”
“Yes, Master Heinz!” Kyle answered as he turned his back to return to his room.
However, before he could even make it out of the laboratory, something unexpected happened.
Boom!
Kyle almost missed his step as an explosion followed by an earthquake disrupted his movement… Based on the sound of the explosion, it occurred not too far from the laboratory!
