After seeing that the leaf was split in middle so well, Alex asked,
"But how? It is just a wooden sword?"
"Wooden sword or not as long as you master a step, you can cut anything even without any weapon, just with a bare hand, desu."
Helena said. She gestured to the doppelganger and continued,
"Look at the move he did, it was just a simple step, however, the power that backing behind it was eye soothing. A Wiseman said that a skilled warrior does not fear a person who practices thousands of moves once, they fear someone who practices one move thousands of times."
Alex nodded. He liked what she said.
"I see."
Alex positioned his sword with two hands and started to slash at the front, which look the same in the eyes, however in the eyes of Helena, every slash was different.
However, there is something that was making Alex surprised that he was getting [+1] after slashing 10 times in the air.
It looks like he got a new way to gain exp.
"Well, do that 1000 times, for today. You can't master a slash in just one day. So, give your mind just rest to think about what you did in this constant one move practice, desu."
Alex nodded while slashing. And stop just after doing it for 1000, he saw his required exp decrease by 990.
"Now then, let me tell you, desu."
Helena ahem'ed at him and said,
"In your thousands slash only two slashed were similar while both of them were not at consecutive times. So, it means you have still a long way to go."
"What? All of those slashes were the same, so how can those be different?"
Alex exclaimed.
"It looks the same for you. But for the eyes in experience person like me, it's different, desu."
Helena said.
"Now, then do whatever for now. By the way, you can take that wooden sword to practice outside, desu. But remember that, this wooden sword isn't a normal wooden stick. It was made from a branch of World Tree, a tree god that our Pixie Race as well as elven race worship. When you are strong enough you can use the fool potential of this sword, desu."
Helena said. Alex looked at the sword and was thinking about what she said. He nodded and said,
"Ok, I will remember it."
Saying that he existed outside of the whiteroom.
[Congratulations, you have acquired the wooden sword of the world tree.]
[Name: Yggdrasil V1986]
[Rarity: ?]
'So, this wooden sword even has a name. But what's with its rarity? It's not showing."
He stored it in his storage. And took out gluttony.
He looked at the Bull, Goats, and Monster rabbits.
"Time for hunt."
...
[Congratulations! You have leveled up to 27. All primary stats increase by +12. You have got 510 unlocated stat points and 25 reserve stat points.]
...
[Gluttony is very happy with the blood. It's level up to 4. +300 ATK power.]
...
Looks like in this run, not only did he level up but also the Gluttony got a level up.
He left the Asgard and went back to Eden to see the progress of his restaurant building.
"Almost 60% of work has been done. We will complete this by tomorrow noon."
Luke said. Alex smiled and said,
"Good work, everyone. Anyway, now let's get ready for dinner."
Saying that he started to cook dinner meals.
An hour later he finished cooking, everyone ate while chatting with themselves merrily.
Seeing that Alex assured about their mental condition as the event happened in the morning when they couldn't enter Rona city. Even he got emotional after hearing that.
He stood up after eating because he eats like a monster, he eats in his tent. It would be odd if a fit boy eats this much where he didn't gain any fat whatsoever.
After finishing he stood up and looked outside. This place is less cold than the usual famine zone. That's because the coldness started to dim here.
He took out his wooden sword. He performed the same move he had done in the whiteroom.
After 10 slashes he started to gain [+1 exp] for each slash. After doing another 1000 slashes he stopped. When he turned around saw that Puja was there.
"Even though you are so strong and a prodigy in cultivation you are still practicing."
She asked him. He felt ashamed because this was the first time he was practicing something. However, not that he can admit it now. He said to her,
"Well, everyone needs to practice if they want to climb up the ladder. Success doesn't come to you with its feet, your feet are the one who needs to walk in front of the success."
When he said that, he felt more ashamed than before because the system was giving him the success that seems too easy to gain.
"I see. I never thought about becoming strong in cultivation. Because I don't have the talent for it in the first place. Now, then I think about I think I also should practice cultivating."
She was of 5th-level origin which is not too bad for her age. She is 2 years older than her, so it shouldn't be that bad. No normal person can not be compared with him considering he has the system.
"Of course, you should practice. You will get stronger than you think. My father once said to me, that hard working also a talent. So, you need to forge a talent by hardworking."
Alex said these words from bottom of his heart. Once he said that he has no talent to his father, and in exchange, he said that to him.
"Is that so? Your father must be a person with a great personality. Okay, I will keep words in my mind. Thank you."
Puja thanked him.
"You are welcome, you should go to sleep then. Good night."
Saying that he entered the tent. Of course, he teleported to Asgard.
