Chapter 83 - Breakthrough



David stood there blankly, as though he had lost his soul. He wasn’t even aware if Freta’s glare. He close his eyes as he felt and observe his body.

The blood in his body flowed more naturally in his veins as if there wasn’t anything forcefully pumping them to begin with. Everything flowed quite smoothly, and he felt that lock which had been preventing him from progressing also lossened it’s hold.

His mind also felt cleared up, but it was in that moment he remembered his situation.

As he was about to burst out with more power, he noticed that the situation had changed, the vines which had tied him up quite nicely was also gone.

He cast a confused glance at Freta who was currently glaring at him. A light bulb suddenly went off his head, although he still didn’t know what was going on, he could guess and in the next moment, he tilted his head downwards as he said “Thank you for your teachings. I’m incredibly sorry that I misunderstood you from the beginning.”

Upon hearing this freighter calm down a bit and she nodded ‘At least this guy knows how to show his appreciation.’

“Hmm, do not worry about it, the plan wouldn’t have worked if you noticed anyway. That was my thanks to you for not letting me get into a tough situation.” she cast a glance at the three men who were still angrily bickering with each other.

They couldn’t see her, because of the camouflage effect of the barrier but she could see them very clearly but she didn’t state at them intently, just in case they noticed.

Glancing back toward David, she explained “Heartlocks are common to Spryhers. It usually only occurs a few weeks after you begin to practicing the Exercising Manuals. Yours just came a bit later than the others, is all. Unless you have been slacking off in your practice.” her voice deepened as she tried to sound intimidating but it just made her cute.

Shaking his head “Of course not.” he didn’t think there would be a single student who would dare to slack off in the institute. ๐“ท๐—ˆ๐’ฑ๐žฎ๐“›๐’ฉ๐„xt.๐” ๐”ฌ๐“‚

“Well, I also think I should apologize for that.” she sounded a bit guilty as she didn’t dare look into his eyes. Her eyes shifted, she suddenly said. “The best way to clear an Heartlock is to place one self amidst danger to naturally break past the Heartlock orโ€ฆ ”

David nodded his head as he pondered. He had experienced it first and he could say with certainty that it works quite well and fine but it would be very difficult if he wanted to that once again. He had almost cracked his veins and there were small amounts of hidden wear and tears in his muscles, veins and flesh. But they were slowly healing. It wouldn’t take quite long to heal them fully.

He then suddenly though of something, he looked towards her signalling for her to continue but she just averted her gaze from him. Refusing to look straight at him.

David’s eyes twitched as he pressed on “Or!”

Sighing, “O_ or you could just purchase a Low level Heart breaking Serum from the institute.” she finally revealed in a low voice with her head lowered.

David’s lips quivered and his expression twisted. So he had suffered all this for naught. His lips opened up naturally to release the curse at the tip of his tongue, but he immediately stop.

He then turned around and left. He needed to heal his injuries and also, if he stayed a moment longer, he didn’t know just what his mouth would spill out.

Freta watched with a worried face as David left without saying a word.

“Come back again.” David almost stumbled. ‘Like hell i would’

But she didn’t stop him and only mumbled “I think i got too carried away. It was my first time being a consultant so i was pretty excited. Well, it worked anyways, that is all that matters.” her pretty smile returned to her face.

If David heard her words, he would surely spit out a mouthful blood from anger.

What David didn’t know was that. Breaking the Heartlock by ones self was the most perfect way to advance. Using the serum would only expend ones talents and if one were to become reliant on the serum each time they encountered a bottleneck, it would have an adverse effect instead.

Although breaking the Heartlock with a serum was normal it was a known fact in the Institute that those who broke the lock by themselves amidst danger would surely grow more in power and mindset than those who had open the lock with serums.

There was a sudden ding sound.

David stopped in his tracks, he turned on his holographic image as he checked his inbox for the message. The small smile on his lips disappeared and his eyes turned expressionless.

“Another student dead.” he gazed at the shimmering ray if light that had emerged from his wrist with coldness in his eyes.

It as the 24th death since they had been in the institute. At first, David felt that been here was heaven itself, but, he didn’t think so anymore.

Every student in the Institute receive a message about the death of another student so as to remind them that they need to work hard and practice diligently to survive.

Waving off the ray of light, David decisively headed towards the direction to the energy room. He had died once already, he swore to himself never to experience the process ever again. His main purpose of growing stronger was to eliminate the process. Never having to pass through it once more.

His first priority was to heal himself from his injuries first before beginning to practice he had been delayed for a few days because of the Heartlock. He wasn’t sure the other students might have likely surpassed him in strength but he was a little doubtful about it. As the numbers of time he the practices his exercising techniques is almost double that of his mates, he doubt if any of he new students could match up to him In strength.

Pedro had a pained expression on his face. His punishment had been decided by Jean and Sanjay already. Which had put a stop to their argument.

He wouldn’t invited into the room at night. He was extremely distressed, it would be quite painful too him. He stared hatefully at both Jean and Sanjay and his heart burn with jealousy.

Ignoring the both of them, he turned his head away, trying to distract himself.

His eyes widened. “Uhm, guys.” Of course they ignored him as they began to discuss their methods.

“Guys!” They both turned around at the same time and simultaneously shouted “What!?”

Pointing towards Freta “Where is the kid?”
