"First Depression Period " °•○●
Ren was asleep for a long time. When he awoke, he was not feeling well. He went back to sleep. Then, in a short time, he woke up once again and felt that he had had a strange dream. But he did not remember the dream.
He opened his eyes for a few seconds, thinking about his room and his filthy body.
Ren had already realized that he couldn't forget what happened last night just by sleeping. He got out of his cozy bed and went into the bathroom. He washed his body with hot water, which he did not know how, yet.
He meticulously soaped every part of his body, including her face, feet, legs, and bottom. When she finally felt clean, she did her dirty laundry for a few minutes. She was still thinking of the dead wolf's body as she hung it on a wooden stick in the middle of the room to dry.
Sleeping and doing chores couldn't keep Ren's mind busy enough. Ren desperately climbed onto his bed and sat in a comfortable position.
He cleared his mind and began to breathe without thinking. As he relaxed more and more with each breath, he lifted his right hand and popped one of the energy pills from the ring into his mouth.
Knowing that one of them wouldn't be enough to level up anyway, he just wanted to pass the time. Even though the pill had its usual nasty taste, this time Ren didn't care. He eagerly awaited the sudden melting sensation the pill created in his stomach. When the whole pill finally dissolved, leaving the pure energy behind, Ren was only focused on his stomach.
He took a deep breath and stopped thinking, without interrupting the meditation this time. He kept himself busy, concentrating only on cultivation. Meanwhile , as a bonus , the whirlpool in her belly filled her dantian with all the energy .
Ren was stunned when an entire energy pill filled a tiny spot in his dantian.
He thought that with the pills in his ring, he could get to at least level six! But even if he went from three to four now, it was impossible for him to reach the next levels.
As a mage, the amount of energy his dantian required to evolve increased severalfold at each level.
After drawing all the energy in his belly into the dantian, he took the energy crystal he had obtained from the wolf. The size of the crystal was the size of a small olive. It was an interesting thing, although the outside was covered with a stone-like surface, it had crystalline parts in places. Its color was a gray close to black, just like the color of the wolf.
Ren didn't want to treat the piece of the first creature he had killed as an item to be sold. Without letting the greedy side in him interfere, he popped the pill in his mouth and swallowed several times to let it slide down his stomach. And he moaned with pleasure.
The outside of the crystal was like sugar, and it felt different right in his throat. Losing himself in the pleasant taste of crystal, Ren could hardly keep from smiling. It was very difficult to concentrate in that moment.
The taste of all the best things he had ever eaten disappeared. In an instant, this crystal had risen to the top of Ren's taste chain.
As the crystal descended into his stomach, Ren continued to meditate in earnest. Basically, this crystal containing pure energy was no different from an energy pill. Even though Ren didn't know, energy pills could also be obtained from nature like this. Spirit Stones and Creature Crystals had different advantages, and it was the school's job to make them weak enough for students to use.
In other words, the original in nature was crystal or spirit stone, while the fake and less effective was the energy pill.
The crystal melted in a few seconds. And it all turned into energy, similar to a steam. Ren had thought that energy could not be seen and felt so clearly. But the wolf's energy crystal had a very pure energy. It had such pure and powerful energy that it was dense enough to create a vapor.
Ren watched as the enormous energy began to spin. Immediately after, the energy, which is no different from energy pills, started to enter the dantian by spinning faster and faster. But the amount and ferocity of the energy was causing Ren to hurt. A pain he didn't feel while taking the pills began to grow in his stomach. The energy that was pouring into Dantian accelerated faster and faster. And Ren began to see images before his eyes!
Yes..all of a sudden he saw a little baby wolf looking at the sun for the first time. It must have been one of the most impressive moments in the wolf's life that it was awe-inspiring even now. Then a happy young cub appeared, eating its first prey. And right after that, a young wolf mating for the first time...
It was relatively slow as the images were displayed, but also very abrupt as it moved on to the next scene. Ren continued to watch the footage, unable to concentrate on the tense pains in his stomach and his growing dantian.
More and more clear images were showing memories at longer intervals of recent times when the wolf's memory was strong. By the time Ren had reached the wolf's final time, his strong eyes, which could see clearly in the dark, had begun to look at a child.
Reliving the animal's last moments through the wolf's eyes, Ren was now staring at himself. He watched a small person who was clearly confused and weak. Slow-moving, hesitant even to stand up, and enveloped in the scent of fear!
Ren took a step forward with a growl coming out of his mouth as a hunting wolf. As the scene changed, he didn't want the weak man with his prey to escape. He ran near the heat, although there was a strong fire burning nearby.
And he felt something. Looking at the object in the air that fell next to the burning tree, he realized that he was going to die.
A great pain came to his heart when he realized that the moment the wolf's death was approaching, it somehow sensed it.
Wolf somehow knew it!
He did n't even care about the pain in his stomach when he saw the last few painful moans and the eyes of the boy who had killed himself with his knife. If he had anything left in his stomach at that moment, he would have vomited them too!
Finally, the images are finished. But Ren was finished too.
He was on the verge of psychological collapse. He wouldn't have felt so bad if he'd just kept sleeping and given himself a few days off. But on top of the incident that happened just yesterday, these images were too much. He was only nine years old. He is at an age where he should be playing on the street with his peers. No child could mentally handle so much in a row.
Ren regretfully checked his dantian. He saw that his dantian was filled with a gigantic and vibrant energy. He realized that he was almost at the end of the third level. An energy pill only filled 5% of the dantian. But if a wolf's energy crystal filled up to 90% of dantian, then these crystals must have been really valuable.
Probably the wolf he killed might not even have been a normal wolf. But since he had no way of knowing this, he tried to forget everything in order to discard the images he saw in his head. Maybe he should have continued to sleep.
Aching both body and mind, Ren went back to his bed and fell asleep.
...
Awoken suddenly from his sleep, Ren felt constantly uncomfortable for several days. He was not sick. But he exactly good either.
Sometimes his head and feet hurt, sometimes he had a slight fever. He had stomachaches and constipation problems a few times. Since he was a small child and had no family, he did not know how to deal with these problems.
Trying to stay in his bed all the time, he consumed the food from his ring. Sometimes he ate hard and dry rusks and sometimes dried meat. After a few days, the side effects caused by the wolf's crystal disappeared. The pain that had plagued his head was now gone.
But when the physical problems ended, Ren was left alone with psychological problems!
He was all by himself in this terrible world.
Ren constantly thought of blood and death. He was thinking of his mot - fake mother and crying after his imaginary father.
"If my father were real, he wouldn't let me suffer like this. I loved my father more than my mother anyway."
No matter how much Ren tried to lie to himself, in those days, fake or not, he badly needed a mother.
..
Ren didn't know that the wolf he killed was the Alpha of the mountain it lived in. Or that it was a Rank 4 Creature.
