CH 13

The first thing he could see was the new skill.

Passive skill [mental resistance] : immune to negative mental effects

As soon as he read the skill description, he turned to the mask and asked her "wait! hold on! does a negative mental effect include headaches and dizziness?!"

"Of course it does! if I'm not wrong, you should never have to suffer from headaches or dizziness or anything like that in the future, in fact, you probably wouldn't even need to sleep anymore"

Alpha wasn't the only one who got excited by that, the mask who've been silently watching and observing alpha's progress so far, could barely contain her excitement

That kid is improving at a tremendous speed, no one in history has ever achieved what he did in such a young age

At this point, the mask could only fantasize about the future achievements Alpha can make

And if she had a proper face, she would be drooling right now

at the same time, Alpha was hurrying outside the safe Zone. after learning that the side effect of exhausting his mana pool was no more, he couldn't wait to confirm it!

he quickly shot another storm bomb, then immediately went back inside and spent the rest of his mana experimenting with the body strengthening magic

This time, instead of infusing his blood or heart with Mana, he infused his muscles with it! and as expected, the results was great! and his skill improved once again!

Active skill [body strengthening IV] : 10MP/min , STR+40% , DEX+40%

but as soon as his skill got upgraded, his Mana ran out. and this time, he really didn't experience any dizziness or headache! not even little bit! he was still feeling as refreshed as ever, only, he couldn't cast anymore spells

Thus, he could calmly sit down and take his time refilling his Mana pool, and as always, he kept on absorbing more Mana from the air, even after filling his pool

Afterward, when he was done, he once again checked his status screen, nothing was looking different about it. except for his INT, it was higher by 6pt!!

Not having a single clue about how that happened, he could only turn to the great mask, and ask for her wisdom

And she didn't disappoint him. after her explanation, it turns out that whenever someone exhaust his Mana pool then refill it completely, he will gain +0.1% INT

But since Alpha didn't stop when his Mana pool was full, and kept on absorbing more Mana from the air, pushing the limits of his body, he increased the value from 0.1% to 1%!

And since his INT was higher than 100, every time he finished his exercise he gained 1INT

And since he has a +110% INT thanks to his titles, every 1pt increase becomes 2pt

Seeing that he can increase his INT just by doing that, he got really excited and immediately ran outside the safe Zone, shooting another storm bomb, going back in, using body strengthening magic, exhausting all of his Mana, refilling it back up, then pushing his limits even further!

He kept repeating that same process over and over again, until eventually, his INT reached 233

He would have kept on going if he could, but unfortunately the hunger was getting the best of him, and He had to go out and hunt for more slimes
