Jean was so exhausted. His mouth spewed out a lot of blood. His stomach, chest, and other limbs were severely injured.
But he's happy. Jean did not complain at all or blame the circumstances. He's even very grateful. Thanks to being thrown into this realm and encountering an extremely terrifying monster, Jean grows stronger.
He had no idea how long he had been in this place. A year? Two years? Or maybe ten years?
Clearly, ever since he had defeated 50 three-eyed monsters with great difficulty, Jean had always been trying to find a way out of this cursed place. He's been going around this whole area. Unfortunately, he must have always met a very powerful monster.
For example, a humanoid monster with a height of five to seven meters with skin and jet-black fur covering its entire body. The eyes of the monster were red with fangs that extended up and down. The nails are so long they touch the ground.
It would be best if he only met one or two, but luck was indeed not on his side. Jean had met a hundred monsters of their own! And all of them were much stronger than the three-eyed monsters!
It took more than seven days to finish them all off. The price itself is no joke. Jean's stomach was so badly injured that the contents were visible. Fortunately, Jean was able to heal his wounds well.
Thanks to these monsters, Jean realized one thing. He realized the path to cultivating his strength.
His mother once said that there were many ways to increase one's strength by cultivation. But despite the many paths, few people could find their own way.
And in this place, Jean found her way. He himself was unconscious, but it had been five years since he was thrown into this realm. In her third year, Jean was able to see the aura of 'Wish'.
These auras are sometimes purple, pitch black, white, or gold. It depends on what desires each creature has.
And Jean could absorb that aura and convert it as pure energy. The stronger one's will, then the aura that Jean absorbed would be even greater and stronger. This was the path of cultivation that made him progressively develop.
And now, Jean was facing off against a large, black dragon that was dying. The animal that he had only seen in the story books was now directly exposed before him. It took me a month to make it like this.
Jean must admit that dragons are powerful creatures. One breath of his could burn an entire forest and pass a mountain. His scales were much harder than steel.
Jean took a deep breath. In this realm he had seen, met, and fought unreasonable living beings. He has also grown stronger. Despite using only bare hands or tree branches as swords, Jean made rapid progress.
He was grateful to whoever had thrown himself into this world. Jean then tried to absorb the aura of intense desire from this dragon. He could feel the desire of this dragon to kill himself, the desire to protect his territory, and various other desires.
Instantly, Jean felt an immense energy flowing within her body. He had to control this energy or else his physical body would be damaged. After desperately trying to control it, the raw energy finally calmed down and began to fuse into Jean's body.
Suddenly Jean felt her head start to weigh. His body felt just as heavy. Slowly, the view around him began to darken and finally, his consciousness completely disappeared completely.

The forest near the normally deserted Saint Georgia City had now become quite crowded. The people living at Uncle Hull's residence are searching for one of his missing men, Jean.
He had not been back all day. From morning to night. Even Charlotte and Selena were so worried. That's why Hull's uncle ordered his men to search for Jean.
"JEANN!!! WHERE'S KAUUU!!"
"OIII!!! JEAN, BACK! MISS AND SELENA ARE CRYING FOR YOU!!"
The forest became very noisy with the voice of Uncle Hull's men. Since it was getting dark, they almost gave up. But they saw a glimmer of hope when they saw a boy in very dirty and torn clothes everywhere approaching them from behind the trees.
"I'm..here."
And the boy, Jean, just fell to the ground.
