Chapter 377: Rapidly Growing Youths (1/2)
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Ayrin continuously punched and kicked as if he had pent up too much energy. This continued until the piles of trash were beaten until nothing was recognizable and they were strewn all over the warehouse. Only then did Ayrin’s slightly sweaty body finally stop.
“What is going on?”
Ayrin himself was completely befuddled.
For some reason, a feeling of ecstasy had welled up within him as he demolished everything around him. It was strangely addictive. And now that everything was destroyed, his body felt unusually satisfied.
But why had randomly destroying things caused him to feel such satisfaction? It was something he could not understand.
At this moment, Ayrin felt a throbbing pain shoot from his hands and feet. They were all rather swollen.
“Did I really do this?” Ayrin wondered to himself as he looked around and saw numerous deep, fist-like imprints atop a few large metal cylinders.
Before, he would have merely been able to deform such a thick layer of metal without using arcane skills. His punches would never have been able to make such deep and defined dents which seemed to be on the verge of penetrating through the container.
Still dazed, Ayrin subconsciously threw another punch.
“Pop!”
The air before his fist erupted as strength abruptly surged through his body.
It was a level of strength beyond when he used Fist of the War God.
But the strangest thing was that as he struck out, the desire for destruction emerged in his mind once more.
He suspected that if there had been a wall or something next to him at this moment, he would have unconsciously destroyed it already.
“Teacher Liszt, just what is going on? Why do I feel such an immense urge to destroy things?” Ayrin shouted towards Liszt, who was the only spectator remaining in the warehouse.
“Hahaha!” Liszt chuckled.
What a naïve and simple hot-blooded youth… but perhaps senior didn’t explain it to you to prevent you from feeling such heavy burden before you matured? Perhaps he wished for you to grow unfettered without any pressure?
After all, it is only an urge to destroy. As long as it remains constrained to objects and does not expand to humans, it should not be too big of an issue. Especially since it has merged with a human bloodline to begin with.
Considering this, I guess I will not tell him the truth. I should allow him to continue growing freely..
Liszt’s laughter slowly subsided.
“Do you feel the increase in strength?” Liszt stretched his waist and then put his hands behind his head as he looked at Ayrin and said, “Don’t worry too much about these urges, you probably just ate too much and have too much energy pent up as a result… you know, some people can also feel the urge to go streaking after eating too much.”
“Eh?” A look of distress appeared on Ayrin’s face as he worriedly said, “Teacher Liszt, I really don’t wish to go streaking.”
“In that case, just keep destroying things when you get the urge. It’s better than streaking,” Liszt said as he started chuckling once more.
“Alright,” Ayrin replied as he looked helplessly at the mess around him.
He was just senselessly destroying things… yet it felt so good…
……
A deeply focused Rinloran stood motionlessly in the seventh training room.
Carved into the rough black stone floor before him was “Peerless Sword: Second Style.”
A brilliant sword light abruptly erupted forth from Rinloran’s hand.
The figure of light standing before him moved simultaneously.
“Crack!”
A nearly indescribable sword light erupted and immediately cleaved apart Rinloran’s Materialized sword as a line of blood appeared from Rinloran’s right shoulder to his abdomen.
“I saw it!” Rinloran shouted joyfully.
The first style of the Peerless Sword used particles to condense sword energy and pierce through the air before completing the Materialization, paving the way for the materialized sword to strike out without facing any resistances. This was why the strike was so fast compared to a normal strike.
However, it required immense skill and precision as the two actions had to flow in succession like water.
