Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith-Chapter 12 Rigorous Training
After cultivating Gale throughout the night, Lyrian entered the forest once again at the dawn of the following day.
Without wasting any time he began making his training supplies from dawn to dusk.
Cutting vines and weaving them into durable ropes, cutting trees, and foraging rocks.
Just like that, days began to pass, which soon turned into weeks. After a month's hard work, Lyrian finally finished making all the things he needed for his training.
During the weeks he created a makeshift ax to help him, but other than that, a small dagger was his only useful weapon when it came to hunting.
By now he probably killed over 50 rabbits, finding they were much easier to hunt than he first thought.
With his daily training routine quest that he was still doing, he was quicker and stronger than before, having the ability to run down rabbits without the need for an ambush.
On the morning of the 30th day, he left to go back to the forest. Thankfully, his mother was happy to see him leave the house and come back each day looking happy and uninjured.
She assumed that he was having fun out there, making friends, and learning to live. Although it was far from the truth, her heart was at ease from this knowledge nonetheless.
When he arrived at his base camp, it looked completely different from before. The small trees near the mountainside were completely wiped out, along with all of the bushes and other foliage.
The ground was mostly flat, covered with the things that Lyrian built.
First off was a training dummy made of wood. It was a thick and long pole around 6 feet in height that stood straight up, having multiple wooden joints popping out of it that acted as its arms.
Although it wasn't much, Lyrian still wanted to incorporate some sort of experience training into his plan.
It wasn't as if he could already fight predators, far from it in fact.
During his time in the first Lyrian saw his fair share of leopards, crocodiles, and dire wolves and other predatory animals from a distance and knew that their ferocity was enough to easily overcome him as he was right now, especially the wolves.
They hunted in packs, and even alone they looked extremely powerful.
Lyrian predicted that to fight them, he needed to be over twice as strong as he was right now.
Next, Lyrian created a way to train his endurance and overall strength via a way of rigorous pull.
It was a rope that went around Lyrian's forehead while he walked or climbed up the side of the mountain, with a giant rock attached to the bottom of the rope.
The thought process behind it was simple. If he made gravity stronger in training, he would feel much more light and agile in real life.
Along with those, he created a few other pushing and pulling types of machines using levers, making sure to train the entirety of his body.
Chest, back, shoulders, arms, legs. He needed every muscle and tendon in his body to grow more, to become stronger!
After taking a final, prideful glance at his work, Lyrian decided that it was finally time to begin training.
[New Training Routine established]
[Complete Workout Routine subquest has been updated]
Just like that, his training finally began.
Lyrian's daily routine for the next two years was filled with intense training and in-depth cultivation.
He challenged himself to the max, every day pushing himself to become quicker, more agile, and stronger than he was before.
He began his training with a wooden training dummy but later moved on to training with large boulders.
His kicks and punches became more forceful and precise, and he developed far better balance and footwork.
To enhance his endurance, Lyrian took long hikes up and down the mountain, hauling multiple heavy logs and rocks.
He also swam in the nearby river, battling against the current to improve his stamina and strength.
By now he discovered how to construct shelters, ignite fires with sticks, and recognize edible plants.
He experimented with creating traps and hunting small game, gradually becoming more proficient with each attempt.
As time passed, Lyrian's body underwent a significant transformation. His muscles grew larger and more powerful, and his reflexes were much quicker.
Through the opening of the treetops of Eade forest, a young, 8-year-old boy could be seen climbing up the mountainside with a boulder the size of a beach ball attached to his back.
This was Lyrian's final exercise of the day, one more repetition than he did the day before in order to never stop progressing.
He arrived at the tree that stood only feet away from the final destination of his climb, marking where he got to yesterday.
There was no doubt about it, he was at his limit. Veins popped out of his head, making it seem like his red, tomato-like dome was about to burst. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒏𝒆𝒕
His entire body quivered with fatigue and stress, but Lyrian didn't give up. Gritting his teeth together he continued to take more steps.
After getting one step past the tree he lost his fitting due to exhaustion, causing his body to suddenly go limp for a moment, as all strength felt like it escaped his body.
The heavy rock leaned him back, almost causing him to fall backward before he let out a burst of energy and placed his right foot forward.
His eyebrows furrowed as an angry expression overcame him. He was going to get to the top, no matter what!
If he didn't, then he wouldn't qualify for it, the thing he challenged himself to qualify through the two years of training.
At this point his eyes rolled back into his head, his body was at its complete limit, but his soul was not.
Pushing past his limits, he took multiple grueling steps forward before finally reaching the top, firmly planting his foot down as he let go of the boulder and fell to the ground.
As he lay there with his arms and feet out, heavily panting, a grin suddenly appeared on his face.
"Finally! I finally qualify to take on a dire wolf!"
