38 Two birds with one stone (2)

Three days passed, yet nothing stood out that took place in the little span passed. Clover also hasn't made progress on what he was doing since God's Record didn't notify him of anything, even though he suffered in constant training that passed the limit of his physical body.

Although his bone tempered, and so his muscles and nerves; but, what he was trying to achieve was still impossible for his body to support it.

Huff Huff Huff

The rapier sword clang to the ground as its body contacts some rocks. While Clover greedily gasped for breath, feeling the strains on his leg – the right leg precisely. He wanted to use all the force on his right calf, which acted as a sprint for his body to dash immediately, which was good at surprising the enemy.

Although he didn't want to do this, he had no choice. Since he needed a scabbard to have the rapier word a resting place. Furthermore, he didn't know that the rapier sword could control the blood yet, but he assumed that it had power similar to that. Since what he knew was that the Rapier sword was greedy for blood.

He needed the scabbard badly, for he was afraid that the rapier sword would be his kitchen tools or even cutting something that wasn't for the enemy. He feared he would use the rapier sword aside from slashing or piercing the enemy.

However, who knows if that was his real reason for why he needed the scabbard using wood as a material - so badly. Maybe he wanted to create an impression that his weapon was nothing special, and he too - was nothing special. Acting like a lamb while as ferocious as the werewolf inside was his specialty.

"This is why I hate to rely on this. Although the benefit I received is enormous, I don't have much time! Eleanor needs me, and Rose needs me!" He roared at the top of his lungs before standing once more while he relied on his strained legs in agony, yet his expression showed he didn't mind the pain.

He looked upward, and his gaze landed on the thin branch, which wasn't that quite off on the distance between them. However, he couldn't still reach it despite using all of his force on his right calf; that's why he wanted to use the technique as an external source to unlock his potential, which means the probability of reaching the branch lessened considerably.

He then crouched and launched towards the thin branch of a tree, yet he still failed. In the distance, he fell was quite high, and fortunately, Clover had already thought of a decision in case this happened, causing him to fall safely to the ground.

"I still failed, huh."

***

Four hours passed, yet Clover hasn't had thought about giving up, since he had already reached this path. He might as well continue to reach the end before he walked towards the next destination, wasn't he?

It would be a waste to turn back now and find another way. Furthermore, he could feel that the tree before him was special, since it was the only tree that stood out the most, and moreover, despite the Tree's Crown visible in the distance. He didn't see any fruit or its type that grew towards the tree. In conclusion, Clover's curiosity about the tree only grows enormously whenever he spends his time with it.

"I think I have finally grasped it! One last push to break the wall then! I'm pretty sure that after I perform it this time, the silence God's Record will finally open her mouth!" He exclaimed; while his eyes turned wide, as he was fully confident that he could now have received another secret technique.

He stood before the tree's trunk ten meters away. His right leg extended to the south while his left leg crouched. Just with the physical appearance of his right calf, anyone would agree with the fact that it could store an immense strength before releasing it like he was a car discharging its turbo.

His right hand clutching the rapier sword's hilt rested towards the left part of his waist, and the rapier sword's "point" pointing towards south downward before he lowered his upper torso a little and closed his eyes.

Darkness enveloped his vision; while he was putting all of his senses into his feeling. He felt his surrounding like he was using his spirit sense, while he felt his right leg still suffering in soreness, while he felt his pair of eggs feeling the cold touch of the breezing wind.

It was not long before a spark candle of light appeared in his vision before his body finally exploded with power, and he suddenly disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Not even a second passed, before Clover's silhouette finally appeared before the tree's trunk, yet it suddenly turned blurry and disappeared!

If anyone could witness what he did, they would mistake him for using the power of blink skill in some MMORPG games. Blink before the tree while blinking in another direction. However, anyone failed to understand that what he achieved was only because of his speed alone!

Before anyone failed to understand what transpired, a thin branch of the biggest tree, yet in diameter could compare to some trunk of the tree, fell from a great height. In its previous position, Clover's physical body was floating in mid-air waiting for gravity to take its effect.

He opened his eyes and looked below, and he couldn't help but admire how beautiful nature was. Trees after trees almost covered the entire forest, yet there was still water, and even a lake was visible in the far distance.

It was not long before his gaze landed on the edges of the horizon, and he noticed the shimmering surface as if covered with millions of diamonds with its color oceanic blue. As he was admiring its scene, he suddenly exclaimed as his eyes turned wide with mouth agape, "Sea!"
