Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Chapter 79: 79: Arm Recovery

After his training, Caleb went back to others, not before cleaning his body and arm. Speaking of which, his arm 'was almost back to normal. No pain, swelling, or any other negative status except for a little stiffness.

The effects of the medicine that he applied to his arm had exceeded his expectations. 'I didn't expect it would just take one week and more... Perhaps, those herbs probably mutated too?'

It was the only feasible idea that he could think of. After all, if the beasts and trees in this world got mutation. What prevents herbs from doing so? It was a weird world.

There's also a good thing that he gained. He realized that one could actually gain control of the rate of consumption and utilization of physical energy in this world. What is physical energy? It wasn't a magic energy like Qi, Chakra, Mana, or the like. It was the basic energy that exists in the body of every living thing. So... no matter the world or the universe, physical energy exists. It's the basic energy that humans used to do physical activities. Basic isn't it?

It's also the so-called 'Stamina' or at least they are directly connected with each other. By learning how to control the rate of consumption of physical energy. He becomes more efficient and can last longer in battles. It lets him prevent the loss of energy unnecessarily when doing physical things like punching, kicking, and whatnot. Then there's also utilization... It can be said that he can now channel his physical energy into any part of his body to enhance it. For example, if he channels his physical energy into his fist, he could punch stronger. It's essentially like Taboo energy, but it is more natural and compatible with the body. Albeit, the effect was much less.

...

"Done with your training?"

Jin looked at Caleb, who just came back.

"Your arms look much better now. Can you finally use it in battle?"

Caleb was surprised as he saw that Jin was back at himself. His usual demeanor returned from how it was before the deaths of Miles and Athena, matching with a faint smile on his face. Thinking of this, he smiled at Jin and said:

"It's much better now. Though It was still stiff on some parts and the movement wasn't as flexible yet. Probably, I need another two days for my arm to get a perfect recovery?"

Jin nodded. "As long as you use the herbs, it would be fine..."

"We need as much strength as we can. We need to cross one or two mountains." Fushigiro looked at the two, then his gaze landed towards Caleb's bandaged arm and nodded. "I don't want any of us dying again. This time, we need a good strategy and get as much information about the enemy. We were too rash last time. We didn't even know anything about the monster causing such a casualty."

Caleb and Jin became quiet. If they knew that the Apokalips could change its arms to blades and breathe flames... If they knew in advance how fast it was... Perhaps the battle might have turned differently.

"Are we going to continue? I don't want to die..." Fatty looked at the ground.

Fushigiro remained quiet, and the atmosphere turned gloomy. No one wants to die.

"We don't have a choice. If we move forward. The chances of death may be high. But if we somehow get past the Apokalips. Then we would still be alive. Yeah, it's a gamble. I know... But if we move backward, that's a certain death with no hope of survival. We don't need to fight every Apokalips we encounter like the one before."

Hearing this, Clifford and Andre looked at each other. They could feel the lack of uncertainty in Jin's voice, but they decided to keep quiet.

"I know that... I'm just scared. I just want you to know guys. I still want to live. There are still countless beauties waiting for me out there. I haven't touched a girl's hand yet..." A hint of remorse could be felt in Fatty's voice.

'This bastard's mind really wired differently.' Caleb couldn't help but sigh. Still, he knew that Fatty was the type of person that isn't afraid to express his feelings and thoughts.

"Don't be dramatic. It's not over yet. As long as there's a thread of hope, I think we should not let go!" Clifford looked at the others with a determined aura.

Surprisingly, he managed to control himself even after encountering Apokalips. Clifford knew that he wasn't strong enough yet. Only by becoming more powerful than everyone would he have the chance to avenge his parents and eradicate the Apokilips. The only way that he could and the only option in front of him was to move forward and survive! To reach the Last Wall, Wall of Hope, become a Destiny!

Hearing this, Fushigiro and Jin's eyes changed, and they couldn't help but give Clifford a look of surprise.

Caleb, on the other hand, wasn't as surprised as them. After all, he knew the other party's backstory and aspirations. He was an extreme type of guy.

'It seems he managed to put his head all together. Is it a good thing?'

Stay tuned with m,v le,mpyr

He doesn't dislike extremist people as those types of people are often the ones who are crazy enough to do crazy things. Some of them can even change the world in their ways.

After all, extremist people would go to such lengths just to achieve their goal. It was the opposite of his personality. He prefers a slow and stable kind of approach in everything he does. However, he can also become crazy once the circumstances need him to. He was most proud of his flexibility and adaptability.

"Let's go. We can only hope for the best now." Fushigiro sighed, his voice weary.

Caleb, Luna, Andre, Fatty, and Clifford nodded with a hint of resolve.

Just like that, under Jin's guide and rigorous scouting... They continued their journey. They began their ascent on the next mountain while practicing their utmost caution. Even the rustle of a leaf was enough to stimulate their vigilance.
