Early the next morning Adan awoke with a start, he was laying in a pool of black sticky goo. He also felt fresh and revitalized as if he had slept a hundred years or more! When he stood up the black goo easily slid off of his skin, however, the same couldn't be said for his clothes which were soaked through with the substance.
"Ah, I see you've used an internal energy pill brat." the geezer system said. "Is that why I feel so fresh? And whats with all this black sludge in my bed?" Adan asked in a quizzical tone. "Yes surely you feel pretty good don't you, and the goo is the impurities of your body being expelled through your pores. Once you gather enough internal energy you'll go through a similar process, again and again until your body finally reaches a state of true purity with nature." the old geezer explained happily to him.
Adan knew it was almost time to complete his daily chores so he arose from the bed and quickly put his robe on. "I'll have to do something about this mess later on." he thought as he opened the door to his room and stepped into the hall. As he entered the hall he ran into Maestro who was shocked to see him out of bed without his nagging.
"Good morning Maestro" he said with kindness and respect in his eyes. "Well good morning Adan, I'm surprised to see you up and about without my beckoning and hammering on your chamber door. Adan tactfully closed the door behind him so Maestro would not see the gooey mess he had deposited in his bed. (I know that sounds dirty, it is what it is.)
After wishing Maestro a good day he made his way to the mess hall. Sitting down he immediately reached for the ladle of beef stew and fished his self out a bowl. Eating greedily he managed to finish three whole bowls of the steaming hot stew in a short time.
When he had his fill, Adan stood up and moved in the direction of the basement utility closet. Upon arriving he went to reach for his usual shortened shovel but quickly stopped. He then turned his minds eye on the versatile tool he had received as a reward. It instantly appeared in his hand, "I don't know how to use this thi..." he thought to himself as the pen shaped object shifted into the form of a shovel in his hand. The length and weight were perfect for him! The shovel also had a more sturdy design that the old ones the academy let him use.
Upon further inspection he noticed runes engraved into the handle and scoop of the shovel. "I wonder what these do?" he thought to himself out loud.
He soon left the room and proceeded to the thick door leading to the sewers. Upon entering the smell didn't hit him quite as hard as usual, he was actually able to breath normally without gagging on his breakfast. "This is an odd turn of events. If this old geezer can make me feel brand new and provide tools all on top of keeping me from getting sick from this smell, well he... he must be Legendary!" "Ha ha ha, this is only the beginning kid, don't call me a Legend just yet!" the old mans laugh cackled in his head.
Adan remained silent after this and instead began to do his normal work. What shocked him was that the work was taking half as long as usual... it seemed with every scoop of shit and rot two scoops were removed. "What the hell, this is awesome! I feel like I won't have to slave in these sewers half the day anymore!" he laughed to himself and began to sing very loudly all the while shoveling and shoveling.
In the upper floors of the academy, the students were afraid to use the restroom which had suddenly started belting out songs that were very off tune and sounded like wailing ghosts in the pipes.
