Chapter 26 - White Phoenix Codex (2/2)

”Reconnect...RECONNECT!”

Simon slammed the disconnected half of his leg back onto the other half, waiting in agony for his regeneration to come into effect.

[Boundless Regeneration Physique level 3]

[Regeneration quotient: 35]

[Capabilities: regenerate heavy wounds, reclaim lost biomass, reconnect lost limb (excluding head), pain nullification 50%]

”Oh my... THIS IS EVIL! no it's not. This might be very good...” Simon chuckled with a devious grin.

'Pain nullification...'

'O such an amazing thing... I won't even feel a pinch of pain if I break my toe... I need to work a bit harder. Commitment is key!'

5 hours later:

[Boundless Regeneration Physique level 15]

[Regeneration quotient: 445]

[Capabilities: regenerate fatal wounds, reclaim lost biomass, reconnect lost limb, pain nullification 100%, disease & poison immunity]

I had finally gotten to the point where Simon could be shot in the head by an armor piercing armament and survived without feeling a twitch. Even having his jaw ripped off couldn't make him sweat, sometimes getting limbs cut off would make him feel a sense of unordinary p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e. But whatever the case, Simon was assured that he had become a much more solid existence in this novel world of his.

CHOP

An axe passed straight through Simon's left arm, but only did just that: pass through. His arm simply reattached itself as the axe moved through it, with basically no physical lag in response.

'Such a thing is unheard of, even in my novel. I better keep this under wraps for now.'

5 hours was enough for him to lose any fear of pain. Simon had already done any physical torture that he could possibly come up with, fear was but a memory right now. Of course Simon still feared dying, but these 5 hours gave him some reassurance that his death won't come anytime soon.

'Tsk. I should probably start preparing my own textbook so my students can study in their dorms. I know for a fact that a lot of students can't memorise half of the stuff I say in my lectures anyways. Compiling a book of my knowledge should help them study correctly in their free time. AAARGHH!!! Why am I even thinking about teaching right now?'

'I am not even a teacher. At most, I am a shitty writer that only got views because of the harem plot. So why do I feel so invested now?'

Simon laid his back firmly on the wall as he slid down into a comfortable sitting position. He looked up to his floating blades with a gentle but reminiscent smile on his face.

'Maybe I do want them to succeed. At the very least they won't turn out like I did, lying alone on their deathbeds, writing up some subpar novels. If they can just learn that work ethic unlike me, maybe they can actually grow.'

'Anyhow, I have work to do, expectations to be met, students to teach. Come forth 'White Phoenix Codex'.' A gentle light encapsulated his right hand as he reached into empty space. Wishing an instance, a white book had appeared in his grasp.

'The shop was able to compile my insights and knowledge perfectly. I just hope that I can actually get some damn rest now. I kinda have a big day tomorrow.'
