Chapter 1107 Dona??t trip again
1107 Don't trip again
"Alright, stand up, it has been 5 minutes,"
Vyriana spoke with an emotionless look on her face.
"..."
Nux didn't move.
Or rather, he was in no condition to move.
His [Regeneration] and Vampire Blood's Regeneration had already kicked in and he was in perfect condition.
However, that was only true for his physical condition.
His mind was exhausted beyond limits. So much so that rather than coming up with a playful way to converse with Vyriana and buy more time, he just stared at the dark purplish sky with a completely blank look on his face.
Of course, he couldn't be blamed either.
5 years...
He has continuously been beaten up by Vyriana for 5 long years.
When everything started, Nux was in high spirits, even though he knew that no matter what he did, Vyriana would still be able to parry and counter all his attacks, he still rushed towards her and attacked, aiming to get just one punch in only to fail again, then again, then again, and again... For 5 long years.
And now, Nux had no strength to continue.
"You will be taking a 2-day break a month later, so stop wasting more time and wake up." Seeing him acting like that, Vyriana narrowed her eyes.
Again, Nux didn't react.
In the end, Vyriana just sighed. Seeing that he was in no condition to continue, she turned around, wanting to check up on those women but as soon as she turned around,
Clank
Nux appeared before her and attacked with all his mind.
"You seriously thought it would work?"
Without even turning around, Vyriana blocked his sword with just the scale on her index finger.
"It was worth a try," Nux replied.
In these 5 years, he had lost his playful tone, his words sounded... dry.
"You broke down faster than I thought you would." Vyriana, who noticed the change in Nux commented.
"I wouldn't be attacking you if I was 'broken down.' I am stronger than you think." Nux replied as he continued to attack but again, all his attacks were parried, and soon, Nux's arm was chopped off.
Slash
Thud
As his arm fell on the floor, another sword appeared in his left hand, taking this chance, he attacked from an angle that made it impossible for Vyriana to dodge.
Was he numb to pain? Did the pain not matter to him anymore?
Even though his pain tolerance had increased to an absurd limit, he still hadn't reached that step yet. He was in extreme pain, it was just that while his brain was registering the pain, his body was moving on its own.
However, as soon as Vyriana dodged the attack that 'couldn't be avoided', Nux stepped on his own foot and fell.
"Hmm. You still need at least a year before you reach the Novice Stage." Vyriana commented as she passed his slashed arm to him.
Nux's arm could regrow from scratch as well, however, it took more energy and time, reattaching the slashed arm was a much better option.
Nux stood up as he reattached his arm.
"Still a year...?" He spoke.
Yes, even after 5 years, he still hadn't stepped into Novice Stage. Let alone talking about Mastering his new Battle Skill, he hadn't even learned it properly.
This was another reason Nux looked like he did, he had been getting beaten up for 5 years and in return, he had gotten nothing.
"You need to be patient, Nux. What you are learning is not a normal technique, neither it is complete yet.
Do not compare your progress with when you learn an already complete technique, the two are completely different things."
Hearing Vyriana's words, a surprised look appeared on Nux's face.
"The Battle Skill... isn't complete yet?"
"Of course, you have barely managed to merge the five skills you learned into it, once you manage to master it, you would be able to fight without thinking. However, that would only give you a sword technique as a result.
I am not here wasting my technique for a mere sword technique, as I said, I will help you create a new Battle Skill.
We will be adding those purple-black Spikes you create, your ability to use the strength of other races, Disappear and appear in the middle of the battle, your spells, and any other thing you use in a battle. In conclusion, we will be slowly adding your abilities to this Skill, finally creating a single Skill.
An Ultimate Skill that you can use in all your battles."
Vyriana spoke, her eyes shining brightly, showing how excited she actually was.
It was quite rare for someone like Vyriana to show such expression, let alone Nux who had barely known her for a few decades, even beings who had known her for thousands of years hadn't seen this expression very often.
Nux would have enjoyed such a rare sight if he was in the right state of mind, he, however, was currently thinking about a completely different thing.
"So... you will be 'ingraining' all those abilities into my body as well...?" Nux questioned and as he did,
A big smile appeared on Vyriana's face and, "Aren't I helpful?"
"..." Nux turned silent.
"Anyways, enough with the talk.
Let's continue, this time, I will be the one attacking, let's see how much your body has gotten used to the new Skill.
Don't trip again."
Saying those words, Vyriana disappeared.
Another round of one-sided beating started and Nux realized that it wasn't going to end in just one year either.
The torture had just started.
And it had already surpassed the time Nux trained under the Vampire Duke and his wife.
The sword moved and again, Nux's arm was chopped off.
"Ugghhh! Fuck!"
This time, Nux's body didn't move on its own and he groaned in pain.
"Your Body is not yet used to it, extreme pain or any other simulation pulls you out of the Zenith Mental State." Vyriana analyzed, then, like an emotionless demon who secretly enjoyed torturing its target, "My previous assessment was wrong, it would take around 18 months before you step into the Novice Stage." She spoke, casually increasing the torture time by 6 more months, and Nux...
"Fuck..."
He cursed again
