Chapter 84: The Peak Of Weapon Wielding.

Chapter 84: Chapter 84: The Peak Of Weapon Wielding.

A week slipped by in a blur of intense focus and rigorous training.

Derrick did not waste a single second more than one day. As much as he would love to relax, he knew there was no rest for the wicked.

His sense of urgency from all the hacking attempts that his company had been through.

From all the near-candy-man-level alluring mails, Derrick knew he had to get stronger as fast as possible.

Right the next day after his break, he dove straight into his stockpile of pills.

He would take a handful of pills and shove them down his throat.

So much so that not only was he bored from taking all those pills, but even he felt sick at the sight of a single pill.

It had gotten so much worse that he had to ask the system.

System, can’t you just directly add the system to my body like exp?

Derrick was sitting in front of a table with bottles of pills lying before him. There were stacks and stacks that were still left for him to consume.

I don’t want to spend my life eating all these pills.

This is not a web novel host. You have to manually consume each one so the energy goes directly into your body.

I am already controlling the equal distribution of the energy to make sure no part of your body remains weakened.

Is there no other way? Derrick knew he was being whiny, but he could not help but.

Fortunately, the system offered him a solution.

[There is one way. If the host is willing to spend 10,000 SC, I can merge ten pills into one. It will be just as powerful as ten pills.]

Do it!

Derrick did not even care about it anymore.

He knew if he continued to take one pill at a time, it would take him months before he could finish all the pills.

Like this, at least he did not have to feel his throat being ravaged by the pills.

And just like that.

The 300 pills he had turned to 30 in exchange for 300,000SC.

Since his novel had already made him near half a million social credits during this time, not to mention the money he was getting from his advertisements and social media accounts.

There were already hundreds of demands for the pills he had released.

Among which 400 requests were for the 60% Pill.

Derrick already planned to release the pills at the end of the week.

When he finally returned to the gym, Instructor Keira was waiting for him with a gaze cold enough to freeze water.

Without uttering a single word of warning, she dragged him straight onto the training floor and forced him into a brutal sparring match.

For the first few minutes, she battered him mercilessly, venting all the frustration for cutting her call right when she was about to speak.

But as they fought, the anger behind her strikes faded and her eyes widened in genuine astonishment.

She could feel the massive leap in his physical strength, noticing how effortlessly he deflected her blows and adapted to her pacing.

This was only because she was the old power limiter to judge him.

But even then she had to admit, his fighting style had improved.

Not only that, there was a touch of killing intent in his attacks.

"Did you fight beasts all day?"

Derrick was shocked how easily she connected the dots without even knowing anything, just from their fights.

"How did you know?" He did not hide anything and just told her he decided to train on his own yesterday.

"I slayed... 99 beasts." His voice dimmed as he uttered those numbers.

Keira noticed it, but she did not say anything.

"How is that even possible? That too in one day." It was not that she did not believe him.

She could feel he was telling the truth, but she did not know how that was possible.

"Oh well. I don’t care. Just give me a good fight and I will forgive you for yesterday."

All of her cold anger vanished in an instant, replaced by fierce battle intent. She raised her power to that of a low-level Enhanced Being Stage.

She even told him to draw a weapon and fight her without holding back.

The real shock came when Derrick picked a pair of spinning chakrams with dull edges.

"So you really chose that."

Wielding chakrams was notoriously difficult, requiring an immense amount of spatial awareness, momentum control, and flawless dexterity that most fighters failed to master in years.

Yet Derrick handled them with lethal grace, his movements fluid and precise.

"It looks like you found your trusted weapon."

Recognizing his raw potential, Keira responded in unison and trained him even harder.

She took him back to the warehouse where she tested his weapon affinity before and entered the simulation herself.

"I told you before, I know how to wield every single weapon there is available in this world. From a paper clip to the pin in hoeken in the buckle of your belt."

Inside the simulation, she stretched in the white expanse while lecturing him.

She knew that to truly master the chakrams, more than how to throw and wield that weapon, he needed to know how to control his body.

"I will show you what you can do once you coordinate your body and Chakram in one." Keira flexed her fingers, and a pair of ring-shaped blades appeared in her hands. "For the opponent, shall we go for the same one you fought before?"

HEINHHHHH!!!

A huge mammoth materialized before Keira.

Unlike the one Derrick had faced, this one was ten times the size of that.

In front of it, Keira looked no different than an ant.

Why wouldn’t she? This was a General Level Beast, which was as powerful as her, someone in the Superpower Realm.

But even then, there was a smirk on her face.

"Let me show you." Keira smiled. "The peak of Weapon Wielding."
