Chapter 21- Special Senses And Body Cultivation

-Week 5, Day 30/Monday, Mayort City-

-Time: 7:38 A.M.-

Waking up in his room, Nivril once again had been out of commission for a long stretch of time, and it was becoming a habit he was not all too fond of, after all, who would want to experience getting comatose twice and maybe even more, but then again it was not like the path to cultivation would have no setbacks.

His luck was that his female teachers and the principal were already infatuated with him, so even if he skipped school it wouldn't affect him much.

Even so, he would rather not pass out at all, however right now there was a more pressing matter at hand.

Looking around himself, Nivril could see the world in a completely new light, it was as if he could sense, feel, see, hear, taste, and smell, the flow of energy in the world. Even people in different rooms as everything within a 5-meter radius was revealed to him. Though it was not very clear as what he saw were a bunch of colors swirling around and crushing with one another, though every individual was a slightly different color and form, there was some overlap.

"So this is energy sense…" Nivril concluded as he had the information in his mind, but experiencing it was not exactly what he expected and this wasn't even the only extrasensory sense he had, as he also had access to something called the essence sense, which could apparently tell him about someone's intention, nature, and the things related to their yin/yang, like arousal and such.

Having an energy sense was also very good in general because it would allow him to see how other cultivators are controlling the flow of their energy. Unlike normal people who had very messy and all-over-the-place energy, Cultivators had a proper flow and control as if the energy was going through their bloodstream rather than going all over the place.

Finally focusing on what was in front of him, he looked at the notifications he had ignored earlier.

Continuing just like before, Nivril focused his AP on charisma and luck, using all 16 points on it.

From here on he had 3 more to go, and the first of those was body cultivation.

Unlike the others before, it was not one fully dependent on meditation, and instead, it required extreme conditions, and or the consumption of beasts, monsters, or demons. Though at Nivril's current level, even animals will do.

Then he would have to mediate as he absorbed the life energy from the creatures he consumes or extreme environments he visits. According to the technique, by putting himself in situations where he was closer to dying, it would be easier to intake life energy and become stronger.

Getting up from his bed, he once again began his training routine and completed all the exercises without a time requirement, before proceeding to take a bath.

Once that was done, he dressed up but he didn't take his quarterstaff as a weapon like that would be inconspicuous. It was Monday again and he was feeling quite good despite what he had just experienced.

Thinking about how he would solve the body cultivation problem, Nivril thought it would be nice to go hunt for something himself since the life energy, would weaken on creatures the longer they were dead. So, just buying stuff from a shop and eating that would be inefficient.

Though it could work for someone who's just a mortal like him, so, he decided to instead buy animal meat and try it out. If it doesn't work, he'll go out to hunt.

"Better make the order online now… maybe I can get it here by the time I'm back from school." Nivril pulled out his phone and went online to select a lot of animal meats due to later today.

Just to be safe he got 50kg of meat, which he was probably not going to fully consume. It totaled around 231.56 E-credits on the same-day delivery.

"I have a lot of money… I didn't even stop to think about that yet..." Only now did it dawn on him just how much he got from robbing one guy, and if it wasn't for his want of the <Hentai Logic> skill, he would still be a millionaire.

Instead after this purchase, he had 399,768.44 E-credits in his account. This left Nivril thinking.

"My life is moving pretty fast right now… I'm almost lost in all this... But now's not the time for that, I have to focus. I have to cultivate so I can deal with this Marissa girl, then I'll start my revenge against the Ruffians, and later I'll have to look for the woman who ruined my first life… she'll pay too…

"Once I'm done with that I can go back to focusing on cultivation and the harem… I also need to find a cultivation technique for Dramil… Don't even get me started on how I'm going to take over the Sapphire Eyes Lion clan using that b*tch, Marissa…Oh well, one thing at a time." Nivril reorganized his thoughts after noticing things had changed a lot during this first month since his third life and fourth chance began.

At that time, he sat down and began meditating to heal from the effects of the poison.

(At this point the poison is barely a threat to me, so I don't think it would be in my best interest to bother buying a skill just to get rid of it… so I'll be able to do it regardless… Yeah, let's do it that way.) He thought to himself as he meditated until he was fully functional.

Anyway, moving on with his day Nivril went to school for another basic day of studying.

Passing through the halls, he still got a lot of attention still, and as usual, ignored it.

In his classroom, the young man seated there calmly drawing to pass time during a break.

"So you finally decided to come out of your hole, and here I thought you hid for good. What happened to the whole prove me wrong? I guess that was all big talk from a little ant." Marissa like that one annoying fly once again came back despite being unprompted and began her trash talk with an air of righteousness as usual.

"I'm a little curious. Why do you keep coming back? I haven't even tried to talk to you once and yet, you're here every time I come to school." Nivril questioned out of pure curiosity and the willingness to test her temper.

"Shut up! You're not here to ask questions! Know your place! Ant!" She frowned at his words, before retorting in a hurried manner.

"It seems like you're lonely. Is that why you're talking to me? You don't have any friends, do you? Well, if that attitude… even if you're rich most would just get tired of being put down for existing." Nivril pointed out as he looked her straight in the eyes, not a spec of fear, anger, or hate, just indifference.

"I… I… That's none of your business… A poor shmuck who just got lucky on inheritance has no right to say anything to me!" Marissa was not just mad, she was also embarrassed and there was even a hint of sadness in her voice and expression.

"Who taught you to be so aggressive and belligerent towards others?" Nivril continued with his questions not minding her words too much and maintaining the same indifference.

"… I'm who I am! Why would I learn anything from anyone? Keep speaking and I'll punch you! You annoying ant!" Marissa seemed to have a weak smile before getting even more frustrated and continuing to act her way.

"I see, since you don't have friends and aren't answering, I'll assume it's a family member." Nivril said.

"Shut up! Shut up! You idiot ant! You don't know what you're talking about! Anyone from my family is clearly superior… well, except that bastard b*tch but she's not even a real part of the family as my mother says." Marissa responded with her arms crossed.

"I see, so it's your mother. I'll take that into account when I punish you for your misdemeanors." Nivril expressed with a small smile full of hidden maliciousness.

"What? Don't speak of my mother with that dirty shmuck mouth of yours! Ant! I'll actually kill you! She's the absolute perfect being and the greatest person to ever exist!" Marissa retorted with real anger in her face mixed with a tinge of indignation and a slab of disappointment.

"Hum… that's fair, I guess no one who loves their mother would like them criticized by someone they don't like… However, I thought you came here cause you thought the opposite, correct?" Nivril moved on.

"Hmph! Who would ever like a lesser tier 1st layer ant like you?! Never! I'm just allowing you to be around me out of pity and because I want to see you fail at the stupid bet you made as much as possible!" Marissa replied with a smug her arms crossed and her flat chest puffed.

"OK, if that's what allows you to sleep at night, then let's go with that. I almost thought that you had to be all big and superior because you were Mama's little girl who couldn't act on her own ideas. Then again, it's hard not to be influenced by your parents, I guess." Nivril expressed before pondering as he had no such experience and didn't remember his second-life parents so that wouldn't help either.

"Shut up! What do you think you are to talk to me like that?! My mother has made no mistakes, and told no lies! She's perfect!" She walked up to him once again pissed with her flip-flopping temper.

"Your future master, now tell me. Was your mother as narcissistic as she sounds or are you distorting your vision of her because she beats you?" Nivril asked in a blunt manner with no care to smooth it.

"Shut up! You ANT!" Finally snapping, Marissa punched Nivril straight in the face, and he didn't try to dodge in part because it was a little too fast, and another because he got what he wanted.

*Bam!* *Crack!*

The wall behind him was broken and all the students nearby panicked since unlike last time when a rich girl damaged some property she could pay to fix, this time she punched a human and could have very well killed him, so people were screaming and running out of the classroom, some even jumped out of the window afraid they might become her next victim, while others paralyzed in fear all looking at the angry Marissa with anticipation of what she'll do next.

However contrary to their expectations, she just ran away avoiding all the people in her path.

Coming out of the hole in the wall stretching his body, was Nivril who had a smile on his face as his theory was correct.

Today when he saw Marissa he noticed a few things, using his energy sense he could see her energy was controlled and organized as expected of a cultivator, but that wasn't what caught his attention. What caught his attention was the fact that she had a decently higher than him energy level, but not my too much. Meaning they were probably close in power. Aside from that, with his essence sense he knew that her yin flared up in his presence so, he decided to test some things and it went better than he expected.

"This wound will heal quickly… if this keeps up, I'll be more powerful than her after cultivating my body… though I'll do the other ones just to be safe, after all, she's not the only cultivator in her family…" Nivril mumbled to himself as he touched his heavily bruised face.

After that, a bunch of people came to him, to ask if he was ok and eventually, they brought school personnel and all that to check on him, and even though he insisted he was fine, they took him to Estellve. They had a small conversation and he went back to his day.

The school day ended and he went back to his dorm room soon after he got in, the order he made in the morning arrived and he got 50kg of meat.

Unfortunately for Nivril, cooking the meat would cause it to lose more life energy, which wouldn't be a problem if it was a beast, monster, or demon meat, but that was expensive, and he wasn't used to spending that much money for anything much less food. If he had ordered 50kg of those meats, even if it was of the lowest rank, it would have cost at least E-5,346.54 and that's the lowest ranking one, the higher ranks are even more absurdly priced.

Moving on from that, he got ahold of the meat and began eating it without too much thought to it. The texture was rough and a bit slimy, but he managed to maw it down. Consuming it bit by bit sensing the life energy particles coming in and concentrating on them then guiding those to his heart.

Once he becomes a body cultivator even just exercising and physical training will be enough to gather some life energy from around him to his heart, though in the end, consuming beasts, monsters, demons, and other things rich in life energy will still be a faster way to rise in power.

The moment Nivril had enough life energy in his heart, he would be able to pump it to the rest of the body and use it to destroy the body before reconstructing it, better than before. Something he had already experienced before, so in this way, he was already a body cultivator.

Having eaten all the 50kg of meat, he finally felt he had enough life energy to begin with the process, which basically relied on self-mutilation before going for self-revitalization.

Getting up and going to the bathroom, Nivril took his clothes off and then sat down on the floor, before focusing on beginning.

"Hahahahaha!…" Involuntarily laughter escaped his laugh as soon as he began and pain assaulted the body he himself was breaking down thoroughly.

That same laughter filled the room with the continuation and intensification of the pain as the process advanced and spread from his heart to the rest of his body.

Crackling could be heard under the sound of laughter as blood escaped the wounds opening and closing throughout his body, leaving together with some of the impurity black slug, but very little of it.

Eventually, his skin, bones, teeth, nails, hair, eyes, muscles, ears, nose, internal organs, and anything in between had bits and pieces of it on the ground with the blood and black slug, having been in a way peeled off for an improved version of themselves with a bit of sharper and more symmetrical features.

Overall, Nivril had not changed too much, as he simply looked like a more refined and better-tuned version of his 18-year-old-looking self. His muscles were more compact and denser, together with his other organs which also got slight improvements of their own.

Once again he put his AP into Charm and Luck.

Just as he was done, Nivril got up and cleaned himself and the bathroom.

Once he was done, he intended to open his status screen to check out the changes, but he started to instead walk around the room before…

"Urrghh! Let go of me!" A man fully dressed in black demanded as Nivril caught him by the neck with his left hand.

"…" Meanwhile the one on his right hand was one with the figure of a woman, saying nothing and only focusing on getting free.

The newly acquired Life Sense, told him about the signatures of their life energy, even though his essence sense and his energy sense could not pick up on these two whatsoever.

"It seems you two have been spying on me… how nice, allow me to payback the favor in a more physical way. I hope you two won't mind." Nivril was expectedly mad at finding out they were watching him in such a blunt manner and he never knew… he could have died without having a single chance to defend himself if they wanted to kill him.

(It seems, I'll have to torture the information out of them… I hope they don't kill themselves before I get what I want... I'll have the be careful about this.) Nivril decided as he held onto the two with little effort.
