YM778.TV Chapter 82: Strengthening the Body
"Huh, is the medicine prescribed wrong?"
Boom!
A golden light flashed in his body, engulfing him entirely.
Aur\'s expression turned strange as he looked at his mental space.
In his dimly lit mental space, the colorless mana was slowly draining away, and the mana level fell.
Seeing this, Aur\'s eyes brightened as he hurriedly sat cross-legged and took out two middle-grade mana crystals, which appeared in his hands from thin air.
Aur gradually fell into meditation as he used his vital spell, Wizard\'s Hand, to rotate, using it to absorb the abundant and pure mana inside the middle-grade mana stone.
However, the mana he sucked into his mental spell rapidly drained as well, disappearing into thin air.
His skin color flashed with a golden light that flickered from time to time.
The mana that was disappearing from his mental space was actually being used to strengthen his body.
As the mana flowed throughout his body, making an infinity circle, it gradually started to resonate with him, causing his internal organs to be gradually strengthened. His bone density increased, along with his muscle mass.
The blue panel materialized in front of the meditating Aur as the muscle mass attribute started to increase rapidly at a terrifying degree.

It had already increased by a point in a span of a minute and it continued to rise simultaneously without any limits to it while the mana rapidly drained from his body.
Finally, after a long time, Aur\'s body stopped flashing with a golden color as he slowly opened his crimson eyes.
Looking at his simple room, a small sigh of content filled him with power coursing through his body.
Aur closed his eyes with a sense of bliss, feeling like he was an immortal and that nobody was his opponent now.
Suppressing his sense of blessing, Aur carefully assessed his body. He tightened his fist.
"Hmm, I seem to have become both stronger and faster, with even my stamina increasing by a large margin." Aur nodded his head with satisfaction, thinking of this.

"Hmm?" Aur frowned, looking at his stats. "Although my muscle mass has increased, and I can feel my strength increasing rapidly, my strength is definitely not at the tier two wizard realm."
Thinking of this, he shook his head with a sigh. While he had reached one point in the attribute for the muscle, he had quite easily reached the strength of a tier one mage.
But now, with the increase in his body\'s strength again, he couldn\'t reach the tier two wizard realm at all.
In fact, when Aur had felt the pressure from the elders, who were all at the tier two wizard realm, he was sure of this fact: he wasn\'t even close to reaching it.
"Then what is my strength?" Aur frowned.
He looked at himself in the mirror with a narrowed gaze. His already bulky frame had become even bigger, with his height increasing by a head taller.
His white hair had also grown by a hand length.
Previously, Aur wasn\'t sure, but now he was sure of one thing: the more his muscle mass increased, the more his physique and height increased with it.
It wasn\'t apparent previously, but now it was as crystal clear as it could get.
"At this rate, I will become a giant," Aur shook his head helplessly.
He spent the entire day cultivating the middle-grade mana crystal. After all, he was rich from the mana crystals he got from Nina.
Even if he could somehow finish these middle-grade mana crystals, more were coming towards him from the deal with the shopkeeper as well, making Aur\'s journey quite smooth for now.
...
Aur readied himself by fixing his silver hair, which reached about his shoulder length, while combing it before washing his entire face.
Although ever since the cleansing, he didn\'t need to clean himself up, as the soft, almost newborn-like skin of his also had an additional feature of protecting him from dust. It was just a small feature after Aur had achieved the cleansing of his body.
After he washed his face with cold water, Aur felt refreshed as he walked out of the room. "I wonder what surprise Leo would give me. Don\'t disappoint me, Leo...." Aur mused to himself.
Aur walked through the paved road inside the academy, where he could occasionally see some people walking here and there. The moon had already risen from the horizon, its dim silvery light falling on the city.
"I should walk faster." Aur\'s pace increased.
Before long, he finally arrived at the place which Anne had told him about. However, Aur\'s expression turned strange as he looked at the building in front of him.
"Is this really the place?"
The smell of booze and wine wafted, making him twitch.
"Hey bastard... who the duck... hiccups... are you?" A man with his cheeks flushed red asked while pointing at him with uneven steps.
Aur looked at the man with his crimson gaze.
"Hiccup! You dare to look... at me. I will ducking kill you," the man said with anger, without a flinch.
The man\'s punch came right at Aur with no hesitation.
"Hmm." Aur looked at the fist that was traveling towards him at an extremely slow pace.
However, before his fist could even reach Aur, he fell down to the floor face first, fainting.
"This..." Aur looked at the fainted man with stunned speechlessness. "Booze can make you really fearless. However, if it isn\'t backed by strength, it just becomes foolishness." He snickered.
Aur entered the bar, and immediately his vision was filled with people who were drinking their booze while watching a woman who was dancing at the center of the stage.
The woman wore very thin clothes that barely blocked her sensitive parts, showing her bare, tender body as she seductively pole danced.
She would seductively tease the people from time to time. Whenever she did, the people cheered as they showered her with money.
The people who were sitting at the table also weren\'t ordinary people, as they wore good-quality clothing that emitted an aura of luxury.
Looking at all these, Aur\'s expression turned even stranger. "This is a bar through and through."
And the people here weren\'t ordinary people as well. After all, those who could stay at the academy definitely needed to have status.
However, they were spending the night rotting away at a bar, which usually meant they had enough status but didn\'t have enough talent to gain power. They were usually the spoiled second generation.
