After hairdressing Shen Yue and his bunch Zako was touring around the market.
"Demonic Spirit Silver Rank with the price of 100.000 Demon spirit coin "
"Special Demonic apple Cow meat, 100 Demon spirit coins "
"A small worthless weapon for 60.000 DSC "
Walking around the Market with an empty pocket would make you feel So Poor especially when you see the price of the Good Items.
*Grrr*
His Stomach was making starving sounds.
"Zako" Suddenly he felt a hand grabbing him from behind.
"Yes..." He turned to see a black-haired girl in her 18th age, for some reason he know her, his host is adopted by a Fighter, this girl should be his foster cousin who is a silver rank fighter, she supposed to be in adventure team to ruins in Ancestral mountain.
"Why I'm seeing out and not attending your classes," Chan Yu said as she pulled his tear.
'It would be suspicious if I don't say her name correctly, But I'm hungry and I need some food '
Zako's eyes lifted as he saw his sponsor, he put her hand down saying: "Big sister, The teacher was sick so the class for today was canceled "
"Big sister!? " Yu's made a weird expression since when he was calling her big sis, he used to use her first name directly.
"Seems the Institue taught you some speaking manners," Chan Yu said smiling to see him after two years, but feeling his hand she said, " You reached bronze Rank 1st star and in the middle way of the second star, that is great "
"I remember, You were in an adventure outside, I want to hear about it "Zako was talking while trying to suppress the voices in his stomach.
"Ah, It is long a bit "
"It's okay, you can tell me inside " Zako pointed to a restaurant owned by a Noble family, he didn't care about adventure, he just wants a meal, a family member in front of him, so yes.
"Well I made a Good profit outside the City, So why not " Yu's smiled bitterly, She is a Silver Rank expert and made some wealth in her adventure out, even a Bronze rank fighter would be able to make 6000 spirit coins if he joined the Army. Chan Yu even though she making a good amount of money she actually need it to buy armors weapons of Silver rank and not forgetting the training resources which are not cheap, also she has to contribute to the Clan, but still, she would have some left to spare it for food and other things.
.
Inside the restaurant, Yu has Ordered some fruits, Cakes and a little bit of meat, Zako Ordered a bit of everything, and a plate of meat.
.
And they were talking while Zako was pretending to be listening.
"...and that Ape jumped on me while holding a Huge rock, luckily I was hiding a sword."
"Ape, That is scary, what you did next ".
.
'That's delicious, I swear I'll repay you one-day' Zako swear in his heart, he had a good impression on her, she was bragging lifting her head and he was ordering more meat.
"I'll later Join the Army, that way I can keep eye on you "
"Mm, Thanks for the meal, I'll go now"
"Where"
"To the training ground, I have to hunt some beasts"
"Oh, but I suggest that you stick to the safe area and hunt some Horned sheep if you can capture five to six a day that would still be good "
"See you later " Zako then left.
"Here the bill " a servant in the restaurant came and handed the Bill.
You Held the Bill and start reading the number: "200 demon spirit coins, that's a hole common clan earning for a month "
"Your food cost 14 DSC while the young master there 186 DSC" t, he servant said politely.
'No wonder he called me Big Sister, Ho Ho, seems his character didn't change that much, very well, I will take all of your earning next month's made an evil smile ' he trolled her, whenever was raising her head in pride then lower it she always see the Plate still not empty, No wonder, he just ordered more when he praised her , yet she paid.
...
Now, after eating almost 30 plates of good meat, Zako's muscle was full of nutritions and recuperate full, if he trained with a body full of energy and using the healing magic he would raise his strength and speed quickly.
Then he made his way in the Training Grounds, in the training grounds, each year experts would catch low Demonic Beasts and put them in for the Students to train, some commoners came here to hunt and help their families, but only those who are under Silver Rank are allowed to enter the training Grounds.
Since Zako only a Student in Fighter Apprentice class he hasn't been stopped by the guards so he entered smoothly.
.
In his way, he would always start with the safest area.
Suddenly a Huge sheep with a Couple Of hornes appeared next to him.
The Horned Sheeps are Demonic Beasts that claim their territory and would fight for it.
Zako in front of The Horned Sheep is a target that just got rid of.
The Horned Sheep aimed its horns at Zako And Dashed with a Great speed, this Demonic beast is a one-star bronze rank, yet in force it equal to two stars fighters.
Zako is only one Star bronze rank fighter yet he is a martial artist.
In battle attacking blindly with brute force isn't effective, as the power with no prowess is like a Bird with no wings.
As the Horned Sheep was going to Stab him, Zako jumped in the air passing above the Sheep's back while making a small wave from his hand.
*Cut* As Zako landed, A Cut with 10 Cm appears on the Neck's back, which means that the Viens and nerves were cut.
"Prr" the sheep fell Down and Zako went to pick it, in his right hand a Knife made of Magic materialization appeared on his hand and he took the buyable parts so he can sell them.
Next, he saw the Horned Sheep body and thought of something.
Coal, Salt, and small long sharp sticks appeared on the ground.
He starts waving his hand around the Body of the Sheep and it was turned to small equal pieces, after that he lit up the Coal, put the Meat on the Sticks then he put them up the Coal letting them cook slowly.
"I'll stay until the late-night so I have to charge my self, And the clothes on me became light, I need to increase if " After that he used The Magic to Creat another set of clothes, A 50 Kg Shirt, 60 Kg pants, and 30 Kg shoes.
At first, when he started moving he was slow, then he starts jumping and running a bit around so he can get used to the weights, after that he started doing a set of push-ups before stopping as he was covered with sweat all over.
Normally other people would need to rest one to three days before starting exercise, Zako doesn't need to, he can use healing magic on himself and his body would rest and he can train again.
After about five minutes he was healed, and he could move a faster than he was, but still slow.
Again, he trained for another 30 minutes while wearing 170 Kg heavy clothes, then after getting tired he healed himself, and each time he was improving.
Healing himself and training again for more two times.
"Time to eat " Then he took the meat of the horned sheep that was cooked on the coal and some of it, After that he sat cross-legged and used a technique that accelerate the blood Circling in his body so the Food would be used faster, then he would eat and recycle the blood again.
however, he started to see some ghosts from his previous life
"I See you still have a quite large stomach as always" He turned his head to see two people came to the scene, one was a woman and the other was a woman, he knew them.
"After all, he is out to party leader "
"Ah, reminding me of the Old day like when we were sitting around the fire before the mission"
Zako at first was Dazed, those two were his followers, but they lost their lives when facing the 10 heads snake, he didn't arrive at the time so they died "Sin, Yara!!".
" Ghosts " in the past, the Ghosts of his friends and lovers were chasing him as most of them died, he got used to this thing but he didn't expect to see them after rebirth.
"Why are you here, Did you forget about our date " a RedHead girl came to the scene as sat next him smiling.
"Jasmine" This was his first woman, she died in the Aliens invention Saga.
"So you were dating her behind my back, Tsk, If I knew this I wouldn't take a blow for you " another green-haired one appeared.
Many people were appearing around him, all of them were close to him, yet he lost them all because of the fates schemes.
"Tsk, I went back at the time, why are they appearing "
"Your mind still unclear, what I told you about controlling your feelings. " another Old man came and scolded him.
"Sensei" One day, a powerful Demon Got out the Hell, in order to protect Humanity his master sacrificed his life, back then he was lacking speed and power So he could only watch him dying between his arms.
"Controlling my feelings, Huh, but they always get me " Zako face turned sad looking at the Ghosts.
"As I told you, Death and our Job is two faces for one coin, you will always have to find your way in order to deal with that burden, " the ghost od Sai said.
" Burden, after losing almost everyone I ever cared or loved, I keep messing, fooling and playing around, still kind useful but I still see those ghosts from time to time. " even though he knew he is talking to an illusionary ghost he kept talking.
"I see, that Day when you fought the Demon Frost Tenano, You could Dodge his attack and win yet you chose to take it and Die" That Day in his last battle, he could get out alive yet he chose to Die, that Day when he lost the Remaining Girl he loved and the rest of his rivals, he couldn't tolerate the Death cycle So he decided to take the Blow head to head and Die.
"In My first Life I found Emptiness, the Second one I found Pain, So I thought what there in death, It wasn't a hard choice to make as there was nothing to live for "
"But I found a Chance, what happened to you, I'll change it " Then a smile appeared on his face.
"We just came here just to say goodbye" The Ghost of Jasmine came closer and kissed his cheek: "but don't dare to cheat on me "
The ghosts start fading.
"Wait, we still didn't date officially, So It can't be considered cheating " Zako smiled and the Cheerful expression went back to his face, he went back in time, No one Died yet, and those experiences from before would be his motivation and strength.
One hour later, all the Nutrition was used and the mass of his muscles increased a bit.
He got up and stretched himself: "I can move better now, but I'm not that fast"
meanwhile, there were around twenty Demonic beasts looking at him behind the Trees
