After a series of warm discussions, Yuto finally gets comfortable, tired but happy to have found his family. His mother, brothers and Ju Won said goodbye to him and closed the door to allow him to rest.
Shortly after, an alarm rang in his mind.
The system announced:
- Quest for the Host: The mission consists of running 10 km every day, performing 100 push-ups and 200 squats, without interruption for three months. Reward: 3 restoration pills.
Yuto felt a peak of excitement.
- **This challenge would allow him to regain his much desired physical strength and prove his determination! ** Without hesitation, he accepted the quest.
The next morning, the young master got up at the first light of day, ready to train. Ju Won, worried about his health, rushed towards him.
-Young master, you need to rest more. Your body has just come out of a coma,
He pleaded. But Yuto, full of passion and determined to regain his strength, remained stubborn. Ju Won, seeing that he could not convince Yuto, resigned himself and left to warn the mother and brothers.
When Ju Won told them the news, the family was worried about Yuto's condition. They tried to convince him to reduce his training.
-Brother, you just woke up. Being almost at the same level as us can wait, Yong-sun said with a protective older attitude. But Yuto answered unwaveringly, determined to make up for lost time.
Time passes. Every day, Yuto trained, running, doing push-ups and squats until exhaustion while drinking tea and soup recommended by the physicist. His family often came to see him, and with each visit, he felt their love. Even his father made a surprise, comforting but brief appearance. Physical challenges became almost second nature to him, strengthening not only his body, but also his determination and mind.
Finally, the end of the three months arrived, and the system congratulated him:
-Congratulations, Host Yuto, you have not given up in the last three months. You have finally completed your quest and received the restoration pills in your inventory.
Without hesitation, he took one of the pills, convinced that it would boost his recovery. As soon as he swallowed it, an intense heat invaded his body.
Suddenly, Yuto's body turned all red. The restoration pill acts quickly, and he feels a surge of energy explode inside him. The properties of the pill poured into his body, and he felt an intense heat intensify around his abdomen, where the acupuncture point **Juque-CV14** was located.
This point, known to strengthen the absorption of nutrients, was activated by the pill. Its energy circulation oscillated through its six meridians, carrying the power of the pill throughout its channels.
Yuto closed his eyes, focusing on what he was feeling. The meridians opening and closing in a harmonious ballet, he could perceive the divine power of the pill strengthening his body from the inside. His breathing was getting deeper, his heart was beating at a regular but powerful pace. After a few moments of intense concentration, the heat in his body began to stabilize. He began to sweat, his visible body regenerating. The red color then began to disappear slowly, giving way to a feeling of extraordinary well-being. Yuto feels an incredible lightness. Every cell of his body seemed to vibrate with renewed energy. The tensions accumulated for months of sleep and inaction dissipated, and soon he felt cheerful, ready to face any challenge. Getting up confidently, he noticed that his physical strength was considerably amplified. Yuto did not feel stronger: he felt that he had overcome a major obstacle in his personal development. He knew that his body had absorbed the properties of the pill in a way he had never imagined.
While he was recovering from this immediate transformation, the system called his attention with a new notification
- By taking the restoration pill, you gain +1 in physical strength and +0.5 in agility. You have also unlocked the potential of the system: Hints
Hints? What is it? Yuto wondered, his mind stung with curiosity.
Hints will allow you to know information that is not easy to see or understand, but it will also allow you to meet new challenges in cultivation, explained the system.
Now, Yuto realized how lucky he was to have a system by his side. The sting of energy deep inside him pulsates, putting his mind and body in harmony.
