A few days after reaching his new resolution...
Ren sat on his bed, every muscle protesting after his night training with Lin. The mushrooms in his hair barely pulsed, exhausted from another day's work in the mines.
Correct Maturation: 10/100
Incorrect Maturation: 82/1000
The amount of crystals he'd collected and his mana resistance had taught him something important.
No matter how much he trained or how hard he pushed himself, his limits were painfully clear.
He couldn't venture beyond 200 meters to work, could only stay for a few hours, and accumulated 4 days of incorrect maturation... Plus, the monsters wouldn't let him stay in one place for long.
Even 150 meters sometimes yielded better results.
