41 What lies beyond? (2/2)
So now that the future of my weaponry is saved. I need to find a way to spend my time. A first step would be to train my digging skills and my body in a whole needs to be strengthened as well. If I want to be able to wield nearly 500 kilos per hand I need to step over my limit. Right now I can handle around 100 kilograms without any problem. But in order to be able to lift the 5x, I need to work out a lot. To prevent me from turning into a monstrosity, I am forced to compress my muscles from time to time under pressure.
Of course, I will improve the rest of my body mutations in the meantime. I do not want to leave every tool my body offers in the dust. I just hope that It does not take too much time until I am able to transverse this lands safely. I want to see what mysteries are in this world. Magic is such an enticing concept that I can hardly wait getting to know more about it. Though I would still prefer not to die too soon. Even after such a short time, I was already as proficient as a mole, but I want to know what the limit of my ability is and what lies beyond that point.
I once again sunk my fingernails deep into the Earth and began digging once more.

” How is he doing, is there any kind of change?”
* No, there is still no sign of activity.*
” He remains useless even in the end, how disappointing. To think I had high hopes in him a long time ago. Yet he turned out to be such a failure.”
* His future does not look very promising if there is no sign of improvement soon then I have to ask you for a final decision.*
” It is not like he can just stand up and run away. So no need to jump to conclusions. We will wait how his situation will develop in the near future.”
* Excuse me, but the odds of him improving and overcoming his current situation are next to impossible.*
” Indeed it is a predicament, but it is not like we lack the necessary resources. So there is no problem with giving him so time.”
*But we have yet to find an explanation how he could end up the way he currently is. We are thoroughly investigating his case.*
” There is no need to put so much effort into this, the explanation is very simple. He was and still is a fool. And like a fool he always thought about whether he could not if he should.”
” His mere presence has caused so much trouble, that we were hardly able to contain it. I can not understand what she likes so much about him, that she let him have that much freedom. All that freedom brought us to the mess we are currently in. I just wish he would have never been born in this world”
