Yesterday Akasha suffered many defeats while sparring with Erina. Akasha got beat up, got up and got beat up again, the cycle continued until the sun went down.
"A roof I don't recognize."
Akasha woke up from his sleep and was confused by the unfamiliar roof. Currently Akasha was in the cabin where they had come from earlier. Yesterday when a physically and mentally exhausted Akasha decided to sleep in the cabin.
Akasha looked around the cabin and nodded in satisfaction at the cleanliness and decent facilities in this cabin.
"Right, I was exhausted and decided to sleep here. The bed is nice and the facilities are no less comfortable than at home."
When compared to the test on the island, the facilities here were already perfect for Akasha.
"Argh!"
After finishing enjoying the luxurious facilities, Akasha tried to get out of bed but immediately cried out in surprise from the strong pain throughout her body.
Akasha immediately realized that this was muscle pain, the first time Akasha's body had experienced strong muscle pain.
Normally when it comes to muscle soreness though, it doesn't really hurt and thanks to Akasha's abnormal body that keeps regenerating damaged cells, the pain won't be felt but yesterday exercise had a much harder difficulty level than usual due to Akasha regeneration speed.
Yesterday Akasha managed to experience Limit Break again. Although it was difficult, but Holo managed to experience 3 Limit Break conditions, even with her body full of wounds.
Akasha tried to move her legs slightly and immediately there was a strong pain that was immediately transferred to Akasha's brain, although it was not as painful as before but still gave strong pain.
For Akasha who has a very low sensitivity to pain, it does not mean that it eliminates her pain completely.
Even with a low pain sensitivity, Akasha was able to feel extreme pain meaning that the pain Akasha was experiencing was really very painful.
"Ugh."
'T-my body can't be moved properly, every time I use even a little, pain appears.'
Akasha found it difficult to move so she decided to lie down thinking it might get a little better if she rested a bit more.
*Knock on Door*
"Akash, are you awake? Can I come in?"
There was a knock on the door and before Holo let her in, Erina had already entered before Akasha did.
"If Master's going to come in without even asking permission, why would you knock?"
"I'm just asking for confirmation if I'm behind the door. By the way, why are you still lying down?"
Although Erina asked like that but actually Erina already knew the reason after all yesterday's training must have broken Akasha's body.
Erina actually wanted to give Akasha a break but Erina felt like being ignorant of this very stubborn student.
"Aren't you getting up for practice? Looks like you're being lazy huh?"
When Erina teased and wanted to see Akasha's compassion pleading reaction. A different answer emerged from Akasha's mouth.
"It's nothing master, just wait outside for a moment. I'll get ready for training soon."
But what Erina had not thought of and forgotten was how stubborn and persistent Akasha was.
"Huh?...No no no, aren't you exhausted?"
"What is the master talking about? I'm perfectly healthy."
As if to prove her words, Akasha performed a very agile movement, hitting the air very quickly with her hands and feet.
Akasha's movements were impossible for an injured person to perform, even Akasha's expression showed no signs of pain and remained expressionless.
Erina was confused by what she saw, from Erina's observations Akasha's body should still not have healed because many wounds and muscles were damaged from yesterday's sparring plus Akasha experienced another Limit Break. But Akasha's movements and actions showed absolutely no signs of being injured at all and even looked healthy and too healthy.
Erina decided to approach Akasha while Akasha retreated slightly, as Erina's hand was about to touch the most injured part of Akasha's body, Akasha avoided Erina's hand.
But then Erina's other hand managed to deceive Akasha and touched the supposedly most painful part from yesterday's training.
"...!"
Although it was not visible but Akasha's flat expression showed a slight expression of pain just now.
Erina did not miss that then realized that Akasha was now lying about her condition.
"Akasha..."
Akasha quickly got up to stop Erina from saying anything further then Akasha ran out of the cabin.
"I'm ready master, let's train right away."
(This kid, is he going to keep practicing under such conditions?! Alright, for now I will observe first.)
Erina was surprised by Akasha's strong decision and Erina would let Akasha train for a while but would immediately stop her if it was dangerous even if it had to make Akasha faint.
Akasha started training again, physical training. Akasha was now doing push-ups.

Despite the excruciating pain that came with every movement, Akasha continued. After finishing the push ups, Akasha prepared for the next exercise.
"Wait a minute, aren't you feeling any pain?"
Erina prevented Akasha from continuing.
Akahsa's condition was pitiful for anyone, but Akasha continued to do the exercises without shouting out his pain to deceive Erina that he was fine.
"I told you I don't feel any pain."
"..."
Erina could only remain silent at Akasha's answer, even now Akasha still did not want to admit and would continue her training.
Akasha passed by Erina and continued the next portion of the exercise.

Akasha continued with every bit of her training, even though it was starting to feel extremely painful but there was no sign of stopping.
Then an amazing thing happened, Akasha's body that began to sense the danger in her condition began to adapt faster and began to increase regeneration to withstand the injuries that continued to grow every second.

The extraordinary happened again this time in the 7th physical exercise.

(Why did the pain suddenly start to decrease?)
As Akasha counted, Akasha was confused by his current condition. The pain should have been excruciatingly painful but suddenly his body started to feel like it was losing strength a little but then the pain in his body suddenly decreased.
Not only did Akasha's regeneration ability increase, but his body also began to adapt Akasha's pain tolerance.
Akasha began to develop a tolerance to pain, Akasha's body adapted to the pain received to the brain and began to reduce the pain received to the brain.
While at this time Erina who continued to observe Akahsa's condition was more surprised by Akasha's condition.
(What the hell is that?)
Currently what Erina saw was Akasha's regeneration speed increasing continuously without stopping as if Akasha's regeneration was also experiencing a Limit Break condition.
If Akasha's regeneration speed is 10, currently Akasha's regeneration speed continues to increase by 0.001 every second.
Although small but if it continues to happen every second it will increase to a lot especially if a normal human's regeneration is 25 and the highest ranked knight is 75, while Akasha's regeneration is 90.
Erina could only be surprised by Akasha's regeneration which began to far surpass any living being Erina knew. Meanwhile on the other hand, Akasha was only surprised by her pain tolerance without knowing her fast regeneration ability.
Unlike Akasha's fast-growing regeneration, her pain tolerance was slower as Akasha's pain continued to decrease thanks to Akasha's regeneration. Even so the more Akasha continued, the more the pain continued to increase and regeneration continued to occur.
Cell regeneration and destruction occurred many times over and the cycle repeated itself like it would go on forever. Without realizing it, the entire exercise was completed perfectly.
