“It looks like the potion is very important to you, Ciel.”
Julia's speech awakens Ciel from her daydream. Looking towards his sister, the young man smiled gently.
“You could say that.”
“Don't be too happy.” Julia shook her head. “There are still sentences I haven't said.”
“What is it?” ask Ciel casually.
“This is a warning from Aunt Maria. He said .. If you do not have a firm heart, do not drink it. It will bring pain that can not be borne by ordinary people when drinking it.”
Hearing that made Ciel frown. But his expression died down later. His own teacher did not know his skill was ‘Devour’. According to Ciel himself, the skill made him able to strengthen his physique after consuming something. Besides .... he should not feel much pain when eating something.
“Does Teacher give you another message?”
“Iya.”
“Please say at once, Brother.”
“Aibi Maria's last message is .. when you meet ‘wall’, you should go see your grandfather.”
“...”
Hearing the word ‘wall’, Ciel immediately understood that it was a limitation. From childhood until now, the young man continued to rise smoothly. Even he didn't feel a barrier at level 2 or level 4. However, since his teacher said so .. it seemed that rising to level 7 was not as simple as he thought.
“I understand.” Ciel nodded. “Then, you better rest first, Brother. You must be tired after a long trip.”
“Good.”
Thus, the conversation between them was over.
...***...
Midnight, Ciel's private practice room.
Sitting cross-legged in the middle of the training room alone, Ciel carried a black potion given by his teacher. Shaking his container, the young man saw a pitch-black liquid that emitted a terrifying aura. Surprisingly, it did not scare him. Instead, Ciel felt ..he was hungry.
Without waiting for long, Ciel instantly unscrewed the bottle of potion. When it opened, a pungent and spicy aroma instantly invaded its sense of smell. Even his eyes felt a bit sore.
Ciel was instantly stunned.
“Bau like this .. is the teacher sure this is not a failed product? This ... is safe to consume, right?”
Maria never tried to hurt Ciel, never even had bad thoughts about him. This made the young man have faith in Mary.
Not wanting to mince words and hold back, Ciel immediately poured a bottle of potion into his mouth. He then swallowed the entire potion in one gulp. The expression on the young man's face instantly became complicated.
“It sounds terrible, but ... it doesn't feel too bad?” mumbling Ciel.
The young man then closed his eyes. He was waiting for the change that would happen to him. It's just that, after an hour of sitting cross-legged.
Never mind the pain, Ciel didn't even feel anything.
Ciel still believed in his teacher and decided to wait. An hour passed, but there was no reaction at all. The young man also tried to clench his hands, but his strength was still the same and did not increase.
“Could the teacher fail? Yes ... It is also undeniable. Making high-level potions is indeed very difficult,” muttered Ciel.
After a long sigh, Ciel got up and was about to return to his room. He chose to rest in his room. But just as the young man was stepping up, a terrible pain instantly invaded his body.
Ciel who could usually endure the pain instantly fell to his knees on the floor. His heart raced quickly, pounding with a strange rhythm. Blood started flowing from seven holes in the head. Ciel even felt his brain shake violently.
Trying not to scream, the young man gritted his teeth. His body felt extremely hot as if it was being inserted into a volcanic crater. Hot steam even began to billow from his body.
Ciel's upper clothes were instantly torn apart when six jet-black wings appeared on his back. Feeling that he had reached his limit and wanted to faint, the young man continued to hold him back. He felt ... if he fainted, the effect of the medicine would be less than perfect.
Ciel had no idea how much time had passed. What he knew .. Every second was painful. Painful and almost unbearable. After feeling the entire pain stop, the young man immediately lay on his back on the floor while panting.
Teacher ... You really almost killed this student of yours.
Thinking of what he had previously felt, Ciel could not help but complain. After adjusting his breath, he sat down then used a simple magic to wash his entire body filled with blood and sweat.
After his entire body was clean, Ciel used simple wind magic to dry it. After that he just started to check his body changes.
Ciel didn't get any additional skills or anything like that. Instead, the young man felt that his body had been forged many times, becoming even stronger. Moreover, he also felt an immense amount of physical energy as if it was boundless. Stamina will help him when fighting for a long period of time.
After checking the condition of his body, Ciel then took out a low-level magic sword from his storage room. The sword emitted a cold and sharp glint. Holding with his right hand, he unhesitatingly slashed his left hand with all his might.
KLANG!
The sound of metal clanking was heard. Looking towards his left hand, Ciel smiled in satisfaction. The young man was quite surprised when he saw the broken magic sword. Instead of being disappointed at losing the magic weapon, he was happy instead.
It turned out that his body now had an incredible defense!
Ciel suddenly chuckled with a cold smile on his face. He looks very happy.
From now on .. I'll sleep better!
Yep. Not because it helped him to fight desperately. The incredible defense eliminates a lot of negative thoughts in his head like being stabbed while sleeping and such. With his incredible defensive ability it clearly made Ciel feel safer.
If others would feel proud for having outstanding defensive abilities. Make them stronger in the fight and be able to travel safely. The lazy and worry-free Ciel only considered it an additional ability to make sleep more soundly.
With a happy feeling, Ciel immediately returned to his room and changed clothes to start trying the effects of his body enhancement. Yeah ... she tried to see if her sleep became more sound.
Her morning.
Ciel who opened his eyes looked very satisfied. Somehow, he felt his sleep quality improved even better.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
Hearing the sound of knocking on the door, Ciel immediately said, “Masuk.”
The door of the room opened, Isabella's figure entered the room. Staring at Ciel who looked happy, the woman smiled. Of course, many people knew what Ciel had done the night before. However they had been ordered not to interfere, so could only wait for news from Ciel.
Seeing the happy Ciel, Isabella knew that the young man had benefited greatly.
“Is the harvest good, My Lord?”
“En.” Ciel nodded. “Very good.”
“Then ... how about getting up, taking a shower, then having breakfast together. You can tell it on the dining table.”
“...”
Seeing how Isabella persuaded him to get up, the young man raised the corner of his lips. He only shook his head lightly before waking up. The young man then took a shower and went for breakfast together.
Arriving at the dining room, Ciel's subordinates and lovers looked at the young man with shocked expressions. They felt the pressure emanating from their master's body. Although it has been covered, due to the somewhat lacking control.
To them, the previous Ciel was already extremely strong. As for now, a sentence flashed through their minds.
Not only is it extremely powerful, but it is also extremely dangerous!
