Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 12 Growing Stronger Faster Than Others

In the Melvix estate's lord room.

The current Duke of the Cravion kingdom and the head of the Melvix family, Zevkoras Melvix was pleasantly surprised looking at the report.

He looked to be in his 50s, with blue eyes and ash-grey hair. he also was one of the master swordsmen in the Cravion kingdom .

Zevkoras had ordered all the sword instructors of his sons and daughters to report to him of all the progress made by his heirs a long time ago.

Anyone with a little brain could figure this out very easily. Only a fool would be ignorant of this fact.

'I can't let a fool become the next head of the family can I?'

Zevkoras Is devoted to the Melvix family to no end, for the Melvix family he would sacrifice anything even if it is his own Heir within whom his blood flows.

Right now he had gotten a report from an unexpected person.

The sword instructor of his 6st son, Zick Melvix.

Seeing the name in the paper, Zevkoras remembered a woman's face.

'Anisha.....Anisha velscar....'

Anisha Velscar was the second daughter of the Duke Velscar family in her time.

The Velscar family is the third Duke rank noble in the Cravion kingdom.

Anisha Velscar married into the Melvix family, the one she married was Zevkoras who was fighting at that time to become the next head of the Melvix family.

But she had died one years after giving birth to Zick Melvix because of her weak constitute.

Anisha had helped Zevkoras to become the next head by marrying him. With the support of Duke Velscar, Zevkoras was able to become the head of the Melvix family With ease.

This is the reason he is even giving Zick a chance and letting him live till he has turned 12 year old. He is just repaying the debt he owned to Anisha.

Just keeping Zick around the Melvix family as an heir is a huge problem for him. Zick doesn't have ash-grey hair like the other heirs and even his talent is non-existent....or at least it was.

'I thought of him as a defect.....but he became a lowest rank knight...? and he is still 8 years old...'

The other heirs have also managed to become a lowest rank knight at the age of 8 and 9 but he didn't expect Zick to be one of them.

'I should watch his progress closely then'

Folding the report, he kept it in the drawer.

*************

One week had already passed since the day Zick had become a lowest rank knight.

In the past week, he had been training with his mana in the training ground nonstop which resulted in him being able to strengthen his body with mana now. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

But he is still training on using mana on his sword and body at once. Using them at the same time resulted in depleting his whole mana in not even one minute while sparring with Garrick.

'sigh.....I am still in the lowest rank, what was I even expecting...?'

Thinking of this, Zick was eating his lunch with a fork. His hands were covered in new bandages after sparring with Garrick.

Now he could clash his sword with Garrick for a few time before bleeding again from his palm.

But it is going better than Zick had thought. If he strengthened his palm with mana he wouldn't bleed for a very long time.

,m Well but it leads to him running out of mana in just 1 to 2 minutes.

Not staying in his depressive thoughts for long, he moved on as today is the day he uses the unorthodox method.

Zick had already ordered Butler Von to keep all the things he ordered in his room.

"Phew...."

Breathing out loudly, Zick tried to calm himself down. He could feel his heart beating faster in excitement.

CLUCK~

Opening the door, he entered and looked towards the table where he saw a ring.

'Space ring....'

It seems Butler Von had kept all the items he ordered in the ring. Zick felt that it was natural, there is no way anyone would keep 10 hearths in a box or bag.

Picking up the ring, he sat on the ground instead of the bed as to not stain the bed sheet with blood.

After making sure that there was nothing near him that could get dirty, he wore the ring in his index finger of the right hand.

Sending his mana into the ring, Zick could feel the items he ordered inside it.

There were three poison and 10 hearts in the ring.

Zick thought of the method which was mentioned in the novel 'the hero of velveric fights the demon lord'

This Unorthodox method was not found by the protagonist, instead one of the members of his harem had found it.

It was found in the second continent, Inside a lab of an alchemist who had died a while ago before the protagonist had reached the lab.

At that time the protagonist was looking for an alchemist who would make him a potion from the world tree's leaf. But unluckily the alchemist was already dead so they had to look for someone else.

Before leaving, one of the protagonist's harem members, who was a mage, had collected all the research papers of the dead alchemist.

The alchemist was in the last step of completing his research before dying so the mage was able to complete it with a little hard work.

Later in the novel this method was used upon one of the supportive characters who helped the protagonist.

Looking at his clothes, Zick decided to remove them too as to not stain them.

Now sitting in the lotus position, He took out the fire crystal poison first. Without hesitation he took a bite of it.

Feeling the burning sensation rise from his stomach, he put back the Fire crystal poison in the ring using his mana.

He took out the water crystal poison next and took a sip of it too.

This time a cooling sensation spread in his mouth but when it reached the stomach, both the fire crystal poison and water crystal poison reacted vigorously.

"Ugh!"

'Damn...I am still in the first step and I already feel this much pain'

He felt like His innards were being torn apart forcefully.

Putting the water crystal poison back in the ring, He took out the Mana crystal poison.

With a resolute expression he took a sip of it too and put it back in the ring hastily.

Taking out the red heart which still had some blood dripping from it, he brought it near his mouth and tried to eat it but....

"Ugh!!.....cough!...cough!!"

The mana crystal poison in his stomach enhanced the power of the already existing poison. Which resulted in-

His body was bleeding from his eyes,mouth and nose.

'Damn it! I have to eat the heart fast'

Using all the strength he had in his hand he forced the heart into his mouth. Not bothering to chew it, he directly ate it in one gulp.

When the heart reached his stomach, he felt the pain subsiding and a cool sensation travelling to every part of his body, but he knew that it was not over yet.

Zick's face kept growing darker as he waited for the next step to begin.

CRA-CRACK!!

"Ugh!!...Guhhh!!"

His bone started reforming first, all the bones in his body made a crackling sound as it got strengthened.

Next his muscle tissues started reforming, Feeling another wave of pain running through his body, Zick clenched his teeth harder.

One by one all parts of his body were strengthened.

After one minute.

"huff....huff...huff..."

Zick lay sprawled on the ground breathing roughly. He could feel that his potential had increased by quite a lot, Even his strength had increased.

There was another thing that benefitted along with his body it was mana. The mana nerves in his body grew purer and its structure was little altered to fit my body perfectly. Even the amount of mana he had increased.

'I will have to do that 9 more times...?'

Just thinking of it made him feel helpless.

But it brought a lot of benefits other than just increasing his potential. It gave him a huge boost in becoming stronger and faster even though his potential can only be increased to a peak rank knight.

It is natural that someone who has a master swordsman potential grows stronger faster but Zick was confident in growing stronger faster than them until he becomes a peak rank knight.
