Got a Gallery in the Wild Chapter 24: Water (2)

Chapter 24: Water (2)

I have already finished‍‌ all the preparations⁠⁠ to bring water​​ from the river,⁠​ but there is⁠ still one problem‌​ left.

The‌ first thing is‌ how to somehow⁠⁠‌ avoid the golden‌ frogs. That is​​ the biggest obstacle.​​

They‌ are creatures that‌ jump the very‌ instant you put​‍ your hand in‌‌⁠ the water, so‌ they are a real headache.

The‌ second problem is‌​ the depth of​ the river.

It⁠ is so deep​ that my arm‍​⁠ can go in‌​ more than halfway.‌​

That⁠​ means it is‍​ not easy to⁠​ fix things with‌‌⁠ stones.

I checked the objects​‌ the dwarf gave‍‌‌ me.

‘Here⁠ I have to​⁠ place the mesh‌ and connect it⁠⁠ to the hose…’​​​

I looked alternately at‍⁠ the shiny funnel‍​‌ and the mesh⁠⁠ that had to⁠⁠ cover it.

Connecting‌‌‌ the funnel to‌​⁠ the hose is​​ easy, but fixing‍ it in place‌ is the difficult‌‍ part.

‘Will​​⁠ I have to‌ dig a little‌⁠​ with the shovel?’‍

There​‍ is probably no‌​‌ other option.

First⁠ I left the‍⁠ objects near the‌ river and went‌⁠​ to get the‍‍ shovel.

Fortunately,‍​ while going back⁠‌ and forth I did not encounter​⁠ any dangerous beasts.‌⁠​

The​⁠​ pack of Mad​ Dog had already​‌ died long ago‌⁠ and the owlbear‍ was recently sold‍ in the auction⁠ house.

For‌‌ now, no high-level‍​​ predator should appear.‌

And‍ honestly, insects like‍​ ticks are more‌ frightening than predators.‌​

Ssshhhh—​​

When‌ I returned with​⁠ the shovel, all​ the preparations were‌‍⁠ ready.

I looked at the⁠‌ river, or rather‍‍⁠ the fast-flowing stream,⁠‍​ and began to⁠‍​ move.

First​ I took the‌‌ shovel and began‌​ digging carefully at‍⁠ the edge.

Splashhhh!‌​

Fortunately‌​‌ the frogs did​‌‌ not jump.

Even‌ so, just in‌‌​ case, while digging‍ I did not‌ forget to look​⁠‌ around from time​ to time.

Splaaash!​‌

Finally​‍⁠ a space appeared⁠‍⁠ where I could⁠​ place the funnel.​⁠‍

To​‍‍ increase the force⁠⁠⁠ of the current,‌ I also placed‍ stones around the​ hole I dug.​

The‌‌​ current was strong‍ enough.

Now⁠ all that remained‍ was to connect⁠​⁠ the hose.

I placed the mesh‍ over the funnel​ and connected it​ with the hose.​‍

The⁠⁠ connected parts I did not secure⁠‍ with plastic ties,‍‌ but with iron‌ ties.

Since​​ plastic does not‍ exist yet in⁠‍ this world, it⁠⁠‍ seems they use⁠ iron instead.

‘But​‌ this must not‍ be easy to​‍ manufacture either.’

The⁠ hose is made⁠ of natural rubber,⁠ so it is‌ normal that it​‌‌ is expensive.

But‍ it seems to⁠⁠⁠ me that these​‌⁠ iron ties must⁠​ be even more‍​ expensive.

‘Maybe​ it is because‌​‌ they are dwarves?⁠​ Well, whatever.’

After‌‍​ confirming that everything​ was firmly secured,​ I moved to⁠ the next point.‍

The‍⁠‍ hose is not⁠​‌ just one.

Since​⁠ the distance is‌ long, you have‍​ to keep connecting⁠ other hoses in⁠ between.

“¡Ssshhh!”‌​‍

Just‌ as the dwarf‌⁠ taught me, I sucked strongly on‌ the end of‍‍‌ the hose.

Then‍ I lowered it‍‌ carefully and the‍ water began to⁠ flow with much‍ more force than‍‌‌ before.

I connected that hose​⁠​ with another and⁠‍‌ secured it with‍‌ iron ties.

After‍‍ repeating that process‍ several times, I finally reached the‍ shelter.

Lastly‌​⁠ I connected the⁠ end of the⁠ hose to the⁠ valve.

With‌ that, the work‍ was finished.

Gushhhhh!⁠​

“Good.⁠​ Very good.”

The⁠‌‌ water was coming⁠ out perfectly.

Just​⁠ seeing it filled⁠‌ me with satisfaction.⁠

But​​‍ I still had​ not completely finished.​

As‍‍⁠ I always say,⁠ this is nature.⁠

An​‌⁠ animal could bite‍‍ the hose at⁠ any moment, so‍ covering it with‌⁠ soil was mandatory.⁠

After‍ approximately two hours​‍‌ of work, everything​⁠ was finished.

I felt truly proud⁠ knowing that I would no longer‍ have to worry⁠‍ about water.

“Kyuu?”‌

“Ah.‌ Did you wake⁠ up?”

Right‌ at that moment​‌ Wonmo also woke‍‌‌ up.

He‌ looked at me⁠​​ with his characteristic⁠ bright eyes.

I wanted to hug​​‌ him, but his‍‌ body is full‍‌‌ of ticks.

‘First​ I have to⁠ bathe him.’

While⁠ I am at⁠⁠⁠ it I also​‍​ need to wash‌ myself.

I bought a large‍‍ iron container at⁠ the auction house‌⁠ and filled it‍​ with water.

I rinsed it several​​ times to make‌⁠ sure it had‍ no dirt and​⁠ then filled it‍ completely.

Underneath​⁠ I lit a fire to heat​ the water.

‘I​⁠ will also have⁠ to give him‌‌ dewormer.’

I also have to‍‍‍ wash the clothes.‌

Right‌⁠​ now I am‌⁠ quite busy.

Since‌‍‌ I am at​⁠ it, I should‍‌⁠ also build a clothesline.

Just‍ being able to‍⁠ have water available⁠‍‍ at any moment⁠‌ means there are‍‌ many more things​‌‍ I can do.‍⁠‍

While⁠⁠ the water was⁠ heating, I posted⁠​‍ a post in‍⁠​ the gallery.

Title)⁠‌ Now I am‌⁠ rich

WildGrills​‌

(video​⁠ of the hose‌ drawing water)

Now⁠ I am rich‌ in water.

ㄴOh.​ Did it work?‍‌‌

ㄴCongratulations‍

ㄴNow‌‌‌ you can bathe‌‍‌

ㄴWildGrills)⁠⁠⁠ First I have⁠⁠‌ to wash Wonmo.​ He had a lot of ticks;;⁠⁠

ㄴDwarfPassingBy)⁠​ You did it​​ faster than I expected. Everything alright?‍

ㄴWildGrills)⁠​​ Yes. Do you​⁠‍ want me to‍‍ give you a mandrake later?

ㄴDwarfPassingBy)⁠​ Oh. Thanks. I will use it​​‌ to make liquor.​

ㄴWildGrills)⁠ No way I am giving it​ to you.

ㄴHaha⁠‍​

ㄴLol​⁠

ㄴThat‌‌ guy wants to⁠​ make liquor with⁠​‌ such an expensive​⁠ mandrake;;

ㄴWhat‌ kind of dwarf‍‍​ is that hahaha‌‌​

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌⁠ If you already‍⁠‍ obtained water, what⁠ do you plan⁠‍ to do now?⁠

ㄴWildGrills)‌⁠​ I do not​ know. If the⁠ dwarf gets the‌ wall, there really⁠ will not be⁠‍ much to do.‍​‌ Maybe cut trees​‌⁠ or explore the‌⁠ surroundings.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌‌ Then you could‌‌​ learn my internal​​ cultivation method.

ㄴWildGrills)‍​ Of course, I would love to.⁠⁠ First I will‌‍​ wash Wonmo and‍‌‍ then I will‍‌​ contact you.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)⁠​‌ I will be‍⁠ waiting. I am​ also curious.

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‍​ The internal method​‍ is fine, but‍​ are you practicing‍‌ swordsmanship?

ㄴWildGrills)‌‌ Yes. I review​‌⁠ it constantly. Although​ I still only⁠ know the basics.‍​

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‍ Excellent. Become strong⁠⁠ quickly and then​ marry me.

ㄴWildGrills)‌⁠​ Master?

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‍​‍ I am joking.‍‍‌

ㄴIt​ did not seem​ like a joke⁠‌

ㄴSometimes‌‌‍ that person lets‌ their true thoughts​​ slip out

ㄴDoes​ she have some​ trauma with marriage?⁠⁠ hahaha

Hmm,‍ this gallery is​ definitely full of​⁠ strange people.

But‍ it is also​​ true that thanks‍ to SwordTasteMaster I am becoming stronger⁠ every day.

When​‌ I fought the​⁠ owlbear I remembered​⁠⁠ one of her​ posts.

If​​​ it had not⁠ been for that,‍‌​ I probably would‍​ have died.

“Mmm.​ With this it‍⁠‍ should be enough.​‍‍ Wonmo?”

“Kyuu?”‌

The⁠⁠ water in the​ container was already‍⁠ hot enough.

It⁠‌ was not boiling,‌ but considering the⁠‌​ temperature of the​⁠ forest, it was​​⁠ enough.

I dragged the container​ to where Wonmo​‌ was.

Since⁠​ the container is‍​ wide from side​​ to side and‍‍ not from top⁠ to bottom, it‌ fit perfectly with‌‍‌ his size.

“Get⁠⁠ in here. It‌ is time to​⁠ bathe.”

“Kyuuu.”​‍​

Does​‌ he really understand​⁠ what I say?⁠‌‍

Wonmo‍‍ looked at the⁠‌ container with his‍⁠‍ bright eyes and‍⁠‍ then carefully put‌‍ one paw inside.⁠​

It‌ was probably the‍ first time he​‌ had touched hot⁠ water, because at⁠ first he was‌​ startled.

But‌⁠ when he realized​‌⁠ it was not‍‍‌ dangerous, he carefully‌​ submerged his furry‌ body.

“Kyuuuu…”​

“It​⁠‍ feels good, right?”​‍⁠

Now⁠ he even closed‌ his eyes and‌​ relaxed.

I smiled slightly and‌⁠ began washing his⁠‍​ body everywhere.

While‌​​ doing that, I also applied insect⁠⁠ repellent to several‍‌ areas and removed​‌‌ all the ticks.‌‌⁠

‘But‌‍⁠ if he goes‌‍ wandering around again,‌⁠ all this will​‌‍ be useless.’

Well,⁠ I will have​⁠​ to accept it.‍

I even used soap​⁠ and scrubbed him⁠‍‌ well.

Wonmo‌‍ seemed to enjoy⁠ it and kept⁠ his eyes closed.⁠

Although​‍ that meant the‍‍​ water became incredibly‍ dirty.

But‍ that is inevitable‌ in nature.

It‌ is something I have to accept.‍⁠⁠

‘But⁠‍​ I cannot resist​ taking a photo.’⁠‍‌

I uploaded a photo⁠ of Wonmo’s bath‌⁠‍ to the gallery.‍

Only⁠⁠‌ his head could‍ be seen sticking‌⁠ out of the⁠ water.

It​ was incredibly adorable.⁠​⁠

Title)‌ Bathing Wonmo

WildGrills⁠⁠

(video‍ of Wonmo bathing)‌​⁠

Isn’t⁠‌​ he adorable? If⁠‌ you think he​‍ is cute, give‍ it a like.‌

ㄴHis‌⁠ face is a trap;;

ㄴWill⁠ that little one‌ become a tyrant⁠ in the future?‍

ㄴJust‍ seeing him relaxes‌‍‍ me

ㄴUgh,​‍ how dirty

ㄴYour‍‍ face is dirtier​​

ㄴI‍​ was talking about⁠‍ the water, is‌ your face dirty?​​‌

ㄴYour⁠‍⁠ mom

How​⁠‌ is it possible⁠​‌ that even in‌‍‌ such an adorable‌ post twisted guys⁠ appear?

But‍‌ since I uploaded‍‍‌ it just to⁠‍ show off, I did not care‌‍ too much.

Just‌​‌ when I was⁠ finishing washing Wonmo.⁠‍‌

“Kyuuuuuu!”‌

Brrrr—‍

Wonmo,​ who seemed to‍ be enjoying it​​ a lot, suddenly⁠‍‌ started trembling.

It‌ was so sudden⁠⁠ that I was​‌ very surprised.

“Wonmo?⁠⁠‍ Is something wrong?”​

“Kyuuu…”‍‌

“No?⁠⁠​ Then…”

What‌​‍ is happening?

Just‍ when I thought‍ that.

Floating—⁠‌

Something‍ appeared on the⁠ dirty water.

It‌⁠ was round, dark‌‌ brown, almost black…​

“…Wonmo.⁠⁠⁠ Did you just‍‌⁠ poop?”

“Kyuu!”‌​⁠

“Aaaah!‍ Get out of​ there right now!‌‌ Quickly!”

It​‍ seems the next‍ thing I will⁠ have to teach‌ him is how‌ to do his‍‌‍ business.

***‍‍

After‌‌​ bathing Wonmo I realized something.

Both⁠‍ with people and​‌ animals, washing another‍‍ being is incredibly​‍‍ exhausting.

So‌ much dirty water⁠​​ came out that⁠​ I had to​ change the bath⁠⁠ water several times.‌

By‍ the time it⁠ was my turn‍‍ to bathe, the​‍ sun was already‌ beginning to set.‍

“Nom‍​‍ nom, chomp chomp.”​⁠

“Is‍‌ it good?”

“Chomp​‍ chomp chomp.”

After⁠⁠​ finishing washing Wonmo,​⁠⁠ I dried the​ water from him‍ with a towel‍⁠ as best as​‌ I could.

It⁠‍ would be great‍​ to have a dryer, but since‍ I do not‍⁠‍ have one, I will have to​ use the campfire.‍

I also gave him‌‌‍ deworming medicine.

Like⁠​ a proper owlbear‌‌​ that eats anything,​‌ he swallowed it‌‌​ without any problem.⁠​‌

‘Some‌​ eat meat and‌ others only eat​‌‍ fasting pills.’

Wonmo’s​⁠ food I got‌ from the auction‍ house.

Just‌ like in the⁠⁠​ morning, monster meat.​‍‌

It‌‌ turns out that​ the cheapest thing‍‍‍ was precisely monster‍ meat.

Since‍ it has almost‍ no use, it‍ did not even⁠⁠ cost 10 gold.‍​‍

I put a bitter‌ fasting pill into‌​⁠ my mouth and​⁠‌ frowned.

No⁠ matter how many​​ times I eat‌‌⁠ it, it is​⁠ still horrible.

‘Besides​ my stomach always​ hurts after eating​ this.’

The‌ training for Wonmo‍​‌ to do his​ business is simple.‍​‍

Inside⁠​​ the cave he​​⁠ must never do‍‌ it.

And‍​‌ if he needs​ to do it,⁠‍‍ he must warn⁠​ me first. Then​‌ I will watch‌​​ him nearby.

Curiously,‍ I do not​ know if it​​‌ is because the⁠ puppy is intelligent‍‍⁠ or if owlbears‌⁠‌ are like this⁠​‌ by nature, but⁠​​ he understood everything.​‌

That‍‌‍ thing about their‌‌ loyalty being high​ if you give‌​ them good food‌‍ was not a lie.

‘I‌​ already ate something,‍​​ so what remains⁠ is learning the⁠ internal cultivation method.’‌‍‍

The‍ lotus position no⁠ longer hurt.

Not​⁠ even a week⁠‍⁠ had passed, but​​​ I felt that‌⁠‍ my flexibility had‌​ improved tremendously.

I did not know‌​ if that was‌​‌ possible, but I decided not to‌‍​ think about it‍⁠‍ too much.

Even⁠ if I thought‌ deeply about it,⁠⁠ I would not‍ find an answer.‍‍⁠

Title)​‌ HeavenlyDemon. Are you‍‍​ there?

WildGrills‌

I want to start​ learning the internal‍ cultivation method. Are​ you there?

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌ I have been‌‍‌ waiting.

ㄴWildGrills)⁠⁠ ???

ㄴThe​‌‍ post was uploaded⁠‌⁠ 10 seconds ago‌ and the comment⁠ is from 2 seconds ago;;;

ㄴThat​⁠‌ already looks like⁠ stalking

ㄴHonestly‍‌ it is a bit scary;;

I was also surprised.⁠⁠

How⁠ is it possible‍‍ to comment immediately⁠‌ after the post​ is published?

HeavenlyDemon‍‌ had commented first‍⁠⁠ several times before,​ but this fast‍​‌ was the first‍ time.

‘Eh…⁠‌​ could she be‍‌‍ very bored?’

Rather⁠ it seems she​‌‍ wants to repay‍‌​ the favor she​‍⁠ owes me.

It‌‍​ is like when‍ a veteran finds‌⁠ a newbie.

Thinking‍‍ about it like‍‌ that made me​‍‌ feel calmer.

ㄴWildGrills)‌‌ Then you were‌⁠‍ there. As I said before, please⁠⁠ comment privately.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‍ Alright. First adopt‍ the lotus position.⁠

I followed her instructions​⁠​ and sat in​‌ the lotus position.​‍‌

I still felt a little discomfort, but​ it was already‍‍‍ tolerable.

Three‍​​ days ago I even screamed like​‌ a girl from‍‌‌ the pain, but‌ now it had‍‌​ improved a lot.‍‍‍

‘Then⁠‌​ now will I be able to⁠ use mana or‌​ internal energy?’

I am really excited.‌

Being​ able to use‌​ an energy that​⁠ only appears in‌​ fantasy or martial‌​ arts novels.

I hope that one‍⁠ day I can‌‍ launch energy attacks.​​

Since‌‌ forever those attacks‍‍ work perfectly for​⁠ fighting at a distance.

ㄴWildGrills)⁠​‍ If I train‍​ will I be⁠​ able to launch‌​⁠ energy attacks?

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)⁠ Why do you‍ ask that?

ㄴWildGrills)⁠⁠⁠ To attack at‍‌‍ a distance.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌‌‍ Do not do‌⁠ it. Only idiots‍‍ do that.

ㄴWildGrills)‌ Understood…

ㄴHe‍⁠ got depressed hahaha​​‌

ㄴBut‍​ launching energy attacks​ is the dream…‍⁠‌

ㄴMany​​ died chasing that‌​ dream

ㄴBut​⁠ how could you⁠​‍ not want to‌ do it!

ㄴIt​⁠​ is not an‌ energy attack, idiot‌⁠⁠

ㄴThen​ HeavenlyDemon can do​‌ it?

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)⁠‌⁠ Of course. It​‌⁠ is not a simple energy attack.​​ From my hand⁠ a tornado can‍​ explode.

ㄴHahaha‌ what a braggart‍‌

ㄴBetter‍ say you are⁠ a mage hahaha‍‍

Suddenly‌‌‌ a fight in‌​ the comments started,​⁠ but I ignored​​ it completely.

What​ mattered now was​​ HeavenlyDemon’s teaching.

Perhaps​​ she knew it​ too, because she​‌‌ wrote another comment.‌

As‍ expected, it was​ a private comment.​

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌⁠​ If you are⁠‌ already in the‍⁠ lotus position, start⁠⁠​ with dantian breathing.​⁠

ㄴWildGrills)‌ What is dantian‍‍⁠ breathing?

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌​ Ah. You said​‍⁠ you did not‌ even know what‍ the lotus position⁠‍​ was. I will​ explain it little​​ by little.

Fortunately‍‍‌ HeavenlyDemon explained the​ concept of dantian‌ breathing to me.⁠⁠

The​⁠‌ dantian is below​‍​ the navel, that⁠​ is, in the⁠⁠ lower abdomen.

Every‍‌⁠ time you breathe,‍‌ you must concentrate‍ the force there.‍

Sometimes⁠‍‌ people say that‌ shouts or strength‌ come from the‌‍‌ dantian.

It‌​‍ is something like‍​ that.

She⁠‍​ also explained that​‌⁠ the middle dantian​ is the heart‍ and the upper⁠ one is the‍‍ brain, but she​⁠​ said that was⁠‍⁠ not important for​ now.

‘Focus⁠ only on the⁠ lower abdomen.’

I closed my eyes‍​⁠ and followed her‍‍‍ instructions.

As‍⁠ she said, I concentrated only on⁠​ the lower abdomen.‍‍

“Shhh…‍ huu…”

After⁠ repeating it several‌⁠ times, I began⁠⁠ to feel something‍​‌ in the dantian.⁠⁠

At‌‍ first it was‌‍‌ a tingling, then‌⁠⁠ I felt as‌‌ if the lower‍ abdomen filled completely.‌

I thought that was​‌‍ normal.

But‌​⁠ then something unexpected‌⁠⁠ happened.

Shhhhh—⁠⁠

‘Eh…?’​

The​ energy that had​ accumulated in the‌‌⁠ dantian scattered in⁠​‌ all directions.

As​⁠ if the container⁠​ could not contain‍⁠‍ it and it​⁠ overflowed.

I had not even‍‍ breathed many times,‍‍‌ so I got‍​ scared.

‘What⁠ do I do?’‍‌

The‌ energy rose from‌‍⁠ the dantian, passed‍‌⁠ through the heart⁠‍​ and the brain,⁠ and then spread⁠‌ throughout the entire‍⁠ body.

This⁠​‌ is dangerous.

Very​⁠ dangerous.

My⁠⁠‌ instinct screamed.

I am an absolute‌‍‍ beginner, so I did not know​ what to do.​⁠⁠

Fortunately,​ after going around‍‌ the body once,⁠ everything calmed down.​

“Ha…​ ha…”

I opened my eyes‌ suddenly.

I felt chills throughout​ my whole body.‍⁠

What‌⁠ had that been?‍​⁠

While‌‍​ breathing with difficulty,​ I realized something.​

I was covered in‍‍‍ cold sweat.

Especially⁠‌ on my nose,‍‌⁠ so I touched⁠‍ it without thinking.​‌⁠

“…Blood?”‌​

It​‌ was blood.

And⁠​ moreover black blood.​‍

Worried,‍ I quickly opened​ the gallery.

ㄴWildGrills)‍ HeavenlyDemon. I followed​‌ your instructions and​‍‍ blood came out⁠ of my nose.‌‌

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)⁠​​ What?!

Even​ through the comment​ her surprise was⁠​‍ noticeable.

She​‌ was so surprised‌​‍ that she wrote​​ another comment immediately.‍

It​‍ was not even​‌​ private.

Everyone‌​⁠ could see it.‌‌

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‍ Apart from the​ blood, do you‌⁠‌ have any other‌​ problem? Dizziness or‌​ stomach pain?

ㄴWildGrills)‍​ I do not‌​ feel anything like‍‍⁠ that. Only the​‍ nosebleed.

Besides‌⁠ the bleeding stopped‌‍⁠ quickly.

I thought HeavenlyDemon was⁠ exaggerating, but other​‍ comments began to⁠ explain.

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)​‌ Is that not⁠ an initial symptom‌‌⁠ of qi deviation?⁠‌

ㄴYes,‌​ it seems like‍‍‌ that. It could⁠ have been dangerous.⁠

ㄴJust‍⁠‍ from doing dantian‌ breathing?

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‌‌‍ Sometimes it happens.‌⁠ When you were‍ breathing, did you⁠⁠‍ feel that the‌ energy accumulated in⁠ the dantian spread‌ throughout the whole​ body?

ㄴWildGrills)‌⁠⁠ Yes, exactly. How‌ do you know?‌‌

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)​ Because the same‍ thing happened to‍⁠‍ me. You had‍⁠ too much energy‌‍ accumulated in the‌‌‍ dantian, and when‍​ you breathed an‌ enormous amount entered.‌‌

ㄴWildGrills)​​​ But I have‌⁠⁠ not accumulated energy.⁠‍

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‍⁠‌ Have you not⁠ recently taken some​ elixir?

Elixir?‍⁠⁠

I have only taken‌ the fasting pills⁠ that HeavenlyDemon gave⁠ me.

HeavenlyDemon​‌⁠ seemed to realize‍⁠​ it.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‍ How many fasting‌‌ pills do you‍ eat per day?⁠​⁠

ㄴWildGrills)‌⁠ Just in case,‌‍​ three at each⁠​ meal…

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‍​ Wait a moment.‍ I will ask​​⁠ one of my‌ subordinates.

ㄴNow​⁠ his dick will‌⁠⁠ explode

ㄴBoom!​‍ hahaha

ㄴWildGrills)​‍⁠ You are crazy.‍

ㄴBut‍ why were you‍​ eating so many?⁠​‍ One per meal‌ is enough.

ㄴWildGrills)⁠​ I thought there⁠ were missing nutrients…⁠⁠‍

ㄴBut⁠​‌ you said it⁠ was like an‌‍ elixir. How could⁠‍ nutrients be missing?​

ㄴDid‌‌ you not trust⁠ HeavenlyDemon?

ㄴWildGrills)‌⁠​ It is not​‍ that. It is‌‍ just that I did not know​‍‍ how potent it‍​‍ was.

ㄴHe‍⁠ was just an‍ idiot hahaha

ㄴAirhead‌ hahaha

ㄴStarLightLady)‍ The adult mandrake‌​ you gave me‍‌ was also elixir​‍‍ level. Compare it‍‍ with that.

ㄴWildGrills)​ But apart from‌ the fasting pills​​ I cannot eat​⁠‌ anything. I am​‌ in nature and​⁠‌ spend many calories.‍

ㄴStarLightLady)​‍ That makes sense.‌‍

ㄴDwarfPassingBy)‍‍ Come on, repeat​​ three times, I am an idiot.​‍

ㄴWildGrills)‍⁠ And you what?‍‌

ㄴDwarfPassingBy)‌‍‌ What?

ㄴWildGrills)⁠ I will make‌‍​ a poem with‍‍⁠ you. Give me⁠⁠​ the first word.‍⁠​

ㄴLol⁠⁠

ㄴHaha‍‌‌

I thought elixir level⁠ only meant that​‌ it had many‍ nutrients.

But‍ it seems that‍ was not it.‌‍‍

What​‌ an absurd feeling.⁠‌⁠

At‍ least I discovered‍‍‍ it before a bigger disaster happened.‍⁠‌

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)​​ I already received‍​⁠ the answer from‍‍ my subordinate.

ㄴWildGrills)​​ What did he‌⁠ say?

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‍​ Too much of‍ something good is​​⁠ also bad.

ㄴWildGrills)⁠⁠‌ …

ㄴHahahaha⁠‍

ㄴShe​‌ hit him with‌⁠​ the truth

ㄴThat​⁠‌ is what HeavenlyDemon‍ meant

I only felt like‍⁠‌ crying.

But‌​‌ at least my⁠ dick will not⁠ explode.

They​ said that only⁠⁠ happens with trained⁠ people.

If⁠ I had eaten⁠​ more than ten​ a day, not‍​‍ only that would‍‍ explode, but my‍‍ whole body.

They​‍ also said that⁠‍​ instead of dantian⁠ breathing it would‌ be better to‍ practice energy circulation.⁠⁠

The‍ problem is that‌ I do not​​ know how to​‍‍ do it.

Dantian‍​​ breathing is the‍‌⁠ most basic thing,​‍⁠ and energy circulation‍⁠ is the next‌ level.

And‍‍‌ I do not⁠⁠ even master the‌ basics.

Just‌‍​ when I was​‌ thinking about what​ to do.

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)​‍‍ Do you want‍​‍ to use my⁠ breathing method? I was similar to​ you too.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌⁠⁠ I already decided⁠‌​ to teach him​‍⁠ myself. Step back.​

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‍ I think my‍⁠ method would be⁠ better for him.‌ I also went⁠ through that.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)⁠ Your method is‌ a mana training⁠⁠‍ technique.

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)‍ Yes. Is there⁠ any problem?

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)‌ Western mana techniques​‍ are much less⁠​ profound than the⁠​ internal cultivation method.‍

ㄴWildGrills)⁠⁠ Hello?

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)​​ Better that than​⁠ not being able⁠‌ to start.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)​‍​ A well must⁠​⁠ be dug deeply.​‍

ㄴSwordTasteMaster)​ If I keep​⁠⁠ digging the well‍​ I will die⁠‍‍ of thirst.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon)⁠⁠​ Patience is bitter,‌‌ but its fruit‍​⁠ is sweet.

ㄴWildGrills)‌⁠ Hello? Are you‍‍ listening? Can you⁠ hear me?
