15 Poison and medicine master

"Aghh... Aggggggaaaaahhh"

Pain!

No matter how many times it was this pain was unbearable.

Physical pain may be bearable but bearing pain in the soul is next to impossible!

"Haa, where is the potion?"

I searched like a madman but due to my haste, I was not able to find it quickly.

It took a few minutes, but, " Finally there it is!"

I picked up the test tube containing a shining green liquid.

Without wasting more time, I downed the content in the test tube.

A cool sensation spread over my body, alleviating the pain somewhat.

Although it was still Paining, it was bearable now.

Oh, wait. You don't know what happened to me?

Well... I'm sorry I forgot to tell you.

To describe my situation we need to go a few hours back.

...

3 hours before.

"The food tasted great. Fantasy World's food really tastes better than my previous earth's food."

No kidding. Just now I tasted some kind of luxury food, maybe better than a 5-star restaurant in my previous life- not that I ever went to one.

But, you know what?

It was just an average snack in this world.

Honestly even I was baffled by this revelation.

Something like food and entertainment was not mentioned by the author in his novel.

So, I was surprised.

Anyways, after I was done eating, I went to the training area and used a personal training room.

Personal training rooms are the rooms in the training area where no teachers or anyone can spy on your training or other secrets. It also has multiple advanced tools for training.

To be honest, I was caught off guard by how advanced this room was.

There were cameras to analyze your training, strength, and mistakes and it also takes into account our body shapes, the mass of muscles and bones, skeleton structure and other things and creates a perfect training regime to push ourselves to our limit, without breaking us down that is.

And there were personal bots allocated to us as our sparing partners where they would put us on edge by analysing and countering our fighting style. And I liked this setting the most, as it would help me recognise the weakness in my fighting style and improve it for the better.

Then next there was a VR helmet, where I could go to a virtual world with any kind of different environment I so desire. Maybe the Lava area, Iceland, Greenland, desert, etc.

It was truly baffling.

But it was not free. You had to register for a personal training room before a week and pay the price for it.

And the cost was also 7000R which means 70 credits in the celesta academy.

By the way, credits are used in the celesta academy as a currency.

1 credit costs 100R.

And 7000 was for a week.

This means 1000 per day, which the poor students would not be able to afford.

But well I don't object to this.

Why?

Because the rooms were limited. There were only 1000 or so such rooms in the whole academy which hosts not 1st-year students but also 2nd and 3rd years.

So if at let be chaos would be ensued among the students in this kind of advanced room.

And for me right now paying 7000R was not a big deal.

Why?

Because my investments paid off and now I had a huge sum of money, enough to use this training room for all 3 years.

And I also told Raccoon to invest in other businesses. Although I won't immediately get the money from these, in a long term it would be another huge sum of money.

I entered the room and started with yoga.

Then with some light exercise, I started to train vigorously.

I practised my art and battled with bots.

Then I went train in a different environment, etc.

After an hour, I exited the training room, with my body drenched in sweat.

...

After coming to my room, I took a shower.

After that, I sat on the bed waiting. As for what I'm waiting for...

<<Ding>>

<<One month time reached>>

<<Master can use download again>>

'Download'

One of the features of the system.

System search for poison master memories and medicine master memories.

I commanded the system.

As for why I needed those memories... It is to survive the first arc which will commence in a few days.

<<Searching completely. Do you want to download it? >>

"Yes"

<<Affirmed>>

<<Download started. 2 slots occupied. Time for downloading 3 hours. >>

I nodded my head seeing the notifications.

Then seeing one slot remaining, I thought of what to download.

Then after some time, I said." The system, search and download body control knowledge."

<< Affirmed>>

<<Downloading body control knowledge. >>

As for why I needed this, it was because I reached a bottleneck in ice-fire divine body art.

So I hoped that this would solve my problems and I would also get knowledge of every inch of the human body, which would be beneficial for me.

And it would also help me in learning 'that' technique that I would obtain in the future.

Now I wait. But before that, I prepared much low and mid-healing potions. There were also many pain relieving potions.

...

Finally, the time came...

<<Master, download completed, do you want to install all 3 of them? >>

"Yes"

I said in a dignified tone.

Knowing the hellish pain I would go through again.

...

At present,

Ha ha ha

I couldn't even move an inch of my body.

The bed which I slept upon was overflowing with my sweat.

I inhaled and exhaled my breath continuously without stopping.

'phew, finally it was over... '

I thought.

Thinking of the pain, my body shuddered.

But it was worth it.

Thinking again, I could see three new pieces of knowledge in my mind.

One was about poison, another was about medicine and the last one was about body control.

These three were invaluable for the current me and my survival here.

Then I thought about the starting of the first arc in a few days.

Thinking of what I would gain in the first arc, I grinned.

'This would be fun.'

I thought.
