Chapter 29 - Misunderstanding

David had almost reached the 4th lap before he started to reach his limit.

His was gasping out loudly while jogging, his legs had mostly turned into jelly since couldn't even feel his legs but,s wear pouring out like rain from his body, almost forming a pool below him. When he was about to reach his absolute limit did he started to notice something was extremely wierd.

'Something isn't right.' David muttered.

Although he couldn't say he was 100 percent familiar with this body, he was at least 50 percent familiar with it.

Which was why it was when he had almost reached his limits did he actually notice that something was wierd with his body. Because he had also almost reached his limits about two laps ago but he had never truly reached it.

This time, he focused his mind completely to observe what was happening to him.

He continued running for a while, when he was just about to fall down due to the weakness of his legs when something caught his attention.

'Eh?' David suddenly exclaimed. That was due to the fact that his heart beat suddenly increased. And although he hadn't had enough time to measure it, he was sure his blood circulation had long since surpassed three revolutions per minute.

Energy surged into his body but it was very miniscule and if he wasn't already monitoring his own situation, he wouldn't even notice anything at all. 'Seems like the instructor was right, the more heart pumping an exercise is, the more stronger one would become.' he concluded.

He looked around to notice that only few of the other students seemed to have also come into the same conclusion has he had since they suddenly picked up speed.

But David was different though, he is lazy at heart and anything relating to work was everything he hated, why would he waste his strength to run when he was clear at his limits to get stronger, what for? He had already long since discarded his dreams of ruling the world and tearing down every single library in the world.

He was about to collapse to the ground just like this one black haired student who had long since collapsed to the ground sue to his weak will power.

But as he was about to give up, a whiff of the fragrance of the mixture between forest and something slightly metallic just like iron blew past his nose. David uncontrollable closed his eyes while taking in a deep breath, it appeared that he was drunk on that scent as he wobbled on his feet like a drunk.

He only opened his eyes when he realised that the whiff was almost gone. He was stunned by what he saw, the black dress, light brown skin, black hair, crystalline drop of sweat ran down her back from her neck. 'It is her!' David almost screamed in his mind.

It was Lyster who had passed right beside David while jogging at a fast pace. She was almost out if his line of sight when energy rushed into his body and without waiting for nobody, he swiftly picked up speed in that moment.

He had already made up his mind to catch up to her and st least say 'Hi'.

He ran, hit tired, filled with energy, picked up speed again, slowed down due to tiredness, felt refreshed, felt sore again, it was a continued cycle. David didn't know how much he ran but all he knew was that he was almost about to catch up to the figure. He was just 10 meters away from her, when she seemed to slow down her pace.

Frenzied, David picked up speed again, he was about two meters away, but, energy seemed to have faded from his body. He was really tired, he tried moving his legs, but he could only move them by inch by inch.

He subconsciously tried to reach the young lady across I'd him but he couldn't even feel them, it only moved a bit before they instantly fell down back to their previous position.

If David had the time to sense the changes in his body, he would be mostly shocked. His heart was reverberating through his chest, attempting to burst out of them, his blood revolved along his blood vessels sounding like that of a flowing tap water.

Meanwhile his viens in his body were worn out and were ready to test through the first amount of friction the bloody revolutions had caused. If he continued, it was highly likely that his blood vessels and veins would end up tearing in different locations due to them being already worn out.

When he was just a few feet from her, a loud and sexy voice immediately reverberated through his head. "Stop!"

David's head buzzed, he suddenly felt dizzy and light headed as he broke out of his infatuation. His eyes met Lysters'' because she had turned her head back but when she saw him, although her stoic face and dull gaze didn't change, her eyebrows still rose up in slight surprise as she saw through the young boy. He has been following her closely for a while now when he was clearly at his limits.

His willpower and resilience is above average. That was her only thought.

David's sight darken soon after as he dropped to the ground, unconscious. But before that, he mumbled out something "Beautiful."

Lyster froze in her tracks and observed him for more than a second this time, but that was all, since all she did after that was to turn back and continued jogging, resuming her assignment.

It was unknown when, but instructor Aella was already crouching beside David as she scanned his vitals to make sure he was alright. When she checked, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

'Such willpower although not that rare, was commendable.' She didn't want to lose such hardworking students since the foreign organ could deteriorate when it was overworked.. but he is clearly okay, the results showed that he was worn out, needed more rest and more importantly, more energy.
