Fourth Penalty

( Day 45 )

Day 45 was the halfway point for Rocky's journey within the ancestral chamber and he had already gone through the worst.

On day 40, once he realized that he could never control certain aspects of his life, the delusion washed away and clarity returned to his mind.

Instead of obsessing over why he had lost the right to holding a sword or why he was going through this, he began focusing on why he needed to complete this challenge and what awaited him afterwards.

By the time he would get out of this chamber, he would become a completely new version of himself.

A new race, a new mindset, a different mana capacity-

He would hit the ground running and could build on-top of these advantages at the academy to clinch the top spot.
