Chapter 16: Training

I dedicate myself to an intense training program of 4 hours per day, following the exercises indicated by the academy professors to improve my mana, strength, speed, and intelligence.

At the academy, we always receive tasks and exercises to perform, and some of them also increase our stat points. The professors have said that if we do these exercises every day, we can reach 100 stat points for strength, speed, intelligence, and mana in 3 years. Since then, I have created a training program. Initially, I trained every day, but it became impossible to keep up with the pace, so I started training for only 2 hours a day—focusing on strength and intelligence one day, and mana and speed the other day. Now that I no longer have to attend the academy, I can resume training every day.

To increase my mana, I focus on the Mana Circle exercise. Sitting in a meditative position, I try to connect with my inner energy, visualizing the flow of mana circulating throughout my body. This helps strengthen my connection with mana, enhancing my magic and making my spells more powerful and effective.

For developing physical strength, I engage in weightlifting exercises. I lift weights of varying resistance, engaging all the muscles in my body. This type of training is essential for increasing my power and physical endurance, making me stronger in battles and challenges against the dangerous creatures of the abyss.

To improve my speed and agility, I train with running. I do high-intensity running sessions, alternating between sprints and recovery moments. This helps me develop greater reaction speed and the ability to move quickly, both during combat and in situations of escape or exploration.

Finally, to enhance my magical intelligence, I dedicate myself to mathematical calculations related to magic formulas. I solve complex mathematical calculations concerning spells and magic formulas. This type of training helps me understand the workings of magic more profoundly, refining my strategic intelligence and adaptability to complex magical situations.

Following this daily training program is demanding, but I know it is essential for improving my skills as an adventurer and becoming better prepared for the challenges that await me at the academy and in the world of adventurers. With dedication and perseverance, I hope to become an extraordinary adventurer and honor the training received from the academy professors.

Additionally, the professors have advised us not to use stat points for now. They warned that if we use the system to increase our abilities at this stage, it may become more difficult to grow naturally once we reach level 100. This especially applies to high-ranking adventurers.

Apart from training myself, I also dedicate time and energy to train Argenius, my loyal familiar, in the art of the sword. Sharing this skill with him is crucial as it enhances our synergy during battles and allows us to face even more dangerous situations together.

We begin the training gradually. Argenius, a skeletal familiar, has physical characteristics different from mine, but he demonstrates remarkable agility and speed in his movements. I use this to our advantage, and we start with exercises in movement and coordination, allowing him to become familiar with the sword and its grip.

As Argenius becomes more comfortable with the sword, we progress to combat exercises with simulations of imaginary opponents. I strive to teach him attack and defense techniques, focusing on the precision of his movements and coordination with my own attacks.

Argenius' statistics have grown incredibly thanks to all the cores he has consumed. It has been truly worth it, but I have yet to have the opportunity to see his ability in action.

As the days passed, Damien and Argenius continued their rigorous training, pushing their limits and strengthening their bond as a team. The repetitive practice of swordplay and combat simulations honed Argenius' skills, and he began to exhibit a newfound confidence in his movements.

Damien's own progress was equally impressive. His mana control improved, allowing him to cast more powerful spells and manipulate magical energy with greater precision. The arduous weightlifting routines contributed to his increased physical strength, making him more adept at wielding his weapon in battle.

Throughout their training, Damien and Argenius encountered various challenges, but they faced each obstacle with determination and perseverance. The trust between the two grew stronger, and they learned to anticipate each other's moves, seamlessly coordinating their attacks and defenses during their sparring sessions.

One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, i noticed a change in Argenius. During the training session, the familiar displayed a new level of focus and control, incorporating his Moon Dance ability into their practice with precision and grace. It was a mesmerizing sight, and i couldn't help but feel immense pride in myfaithful companion's growth.
