Chapter 26 Making Breakthrough
Chapter 26 Making Breakthrough
?"...This... This isn't making sense... How can a person who doesn't have a single trace of man in his body move so fast that no eyes can catch him moving and not mention the inhuman strength you've mentioned, this is nonsense; who would believe such proclamations...?" How can the Viscount believe the culprit's story? A person who has never heard of or read about a man with inhuman strength in any historical records. He believes the witnesses are just a bunch of goons who don't know the difference between a knight and a mage, and that the culprit is almost certainly a high-ranking knight.
"Oh, my Lord! I believe the guilty party to be a powerful knight that the common people could not possibly see. Or perhaps he was utilizing a concealing treasure, possibly a pretty high-ranking treasure, to conceal his mana." Butler As he sought to please the Lord, Josh expressed his opinion on the subject. He was fearful that if his viewpoint wasn't accepted, Viscountess Elizabeth would punish him, and the thought of that made him shiver uncontrollably.
The Viscount pondered and pondered and then spoke after a brief silence. "...I agree with you completely, Josh... I was just curious as to where they could have come from. What is the story behind them? ... What are your thoughts on this, Josh?" Viscount Lewis inquired, his gaze narrowed at him.
Gulp! Butler Josh swallowed his saliva as he felt threatened by his gaze.
"Dear Lord, After questioning all of the eyewitnesses in town, we still got the same answer: they had never seen them before and had only seen them that day. They also said that their clothes were very normal and similar to what commoners wore. So, in my opinion, they are attempting to conceal their identities..." Butler stated Josh could only think of this possibility after reading the report he received from the spies in Clover town. The question is if they truly want to conceal their identities, why didn't they conceal their appearance? He couldn't solve the mystery at the time.
Even though Elizabeth wanted to complain, she couldn't because complaining won't change anything. On the outside, she appears to be as calm as water, but on the inside, she is boiling with rage.
She can't imagine how her poor Jayden would react if his father failed to find the culprit.
'My poor darling would be heartbroken to learn of his father's failure... It appears that I will have to do things my way; if I rely on them, my son will not receive justice!' Elizabeth thought to herself as she listened to their conversation.
Viscount Lewis sighed after a brief moment of reflection. "...You can go... Butler Josh!"
"As you please, My Lord and Lady..." Josh walks out of the living room after bowing to both of them.
'Will justice ever be served to our son? No! I cannot allow it to occur! In addition to seeking retribution, our Noble name's honor is at stake in this. How can I let him go unpunished when he has the arrogance to make our honorable reputation a laughing stock in public? I'll demonstrate to him what happens when a commoner dares to defame a noble family in public: every single one of his family members will be put to death in a public execution!' Indignantly, Viscount Lewis thought. Never in his life had he imagined that someone would come along and publicly disgrace his Noble name... It's a real tragedy, and Viscount Lewis intended to put an end to it with his hot blood since, otherwise, his family name would continue to be made fun of by other noble families.

Yuan eventually ascended to the Seventh Level of the Spirit Warrior realm after spending four or even more hours cultivating. After achieving a breakthrough, he felt so renewed that it appeared he had never experienced fatigue in the first place. His body began to feel cool and refreshing, seemingly miraculously eliminating all of his tiredness in the process.
He immediately rose to his feet after feeling a surprising sense of lightness, as though a significant amount of his weight had been removed. He attempted to test it by jumping into the air, but as a result of the height of his jump, which would undoubtedly make him the sole holder of the world record for the highest high jump if it were on the ground, he immediately became startled by what had just occurred. He continued to jump a few more times before stopping, like a child who had just received his much-desired favorite toy.
[Host, Congratulations! For entering the realm of spirit warriors' seventh level... As would be expected of the host, a genius!!] As he was having so much fun, Nora held back from saying it right away because she didn't want to interfere with his good times.
"I appreciate it. But quit complimenting me in this manner! I'm blushing from it! "He said, his face a little flushed.
"There is simply too much strength between even the lowest levels. Whoa, what strength! I do, in fact, have a few body-strengthening pills in the system storage, now that I think about it "He muttered as he pulled out a white clay pill container that was built specifically to hold pills.
He removed just one tablet from the bottle, held the body-strengthening pill in his hands, and the system instantly performed an analysis on it.
—
[Body-Strengthening pills] [Tier: 2] [Purity: 85%]
[Effect: Permanently increase physical strength by 500]
[Limit: 3]
—
"It has the potential to permanently boost my physical strength! And by 500!" Yuan exclaimed, looking at the pill in her hand, "...It's a shame I can only consume three of them..."
Nora then stated, [Most pills have a limit on how many you can consume before they no longer benefit your body; these body-strengthening pills can only be consumed three times before they no longer benefit your body. You can give the rest to your mothers or Emma because they are now in the warrior realm; for Lilly, you can buy it from the system store once she enters the warrior realm.]
"I see..." Yuan nodded his head, clearly understanding.
Yuan then put the pill in his mouth and swallowed it.
Gulp!
<You have consumed a body-strengthening pill>
< Physical Strength and defense have been increased by 500 permanently>
He felt as though his insides were burning after taking the tablet, and his clothing was now saturated in sweat. Nevertheless, it was abruptly replaced by a chilly sensation, making him feel even more powerful than before and giving his body a radiant glow of energy.
"Ugh, my body stinks so bad." He murmured as the foul scent of perspiration filled his nostrils; all the perspiration on his body had been soaked by his clothing, and it has since dried up.
"I'll go take a bath now... I can't stay like this while having lunch, Can I?" Yuan entered the home while mumbling those things as he left the yard.
After entering the bathroom, he removed all of his sweat-soaked clothes and placed them in the laundry bucket for Emma to wash later, and then he entered the bathtub.
"It's a shame there is no soap in this world... I'll try to find some material to make soap for myself later.. mumbling these words, he begins properly cleaning himself, making sure no foul odor remains.
[Why don't you purchase Alchemy skills from the store if you are trying to manufacture soap, host? Alchemically produced soap has a much-enhanced impact.] What Nora just said made sense, as alchemy burns impurities to release the essence of any substance known to be employed in alchemy, such as herbs while releasing the substance's natural flavor.
I see... I'll check those techniques later..." Yuan remarked.
After getting out of the bath, he used Qi to evaporate the moisture from his body before opening the closet and pulling out fresh clothing, which he promptly put on.
He stood in front of the mirror after changing into a fresh set of clothes and smiled softly as he observed his own handsome face. He noted that, in comparison to his previous life, there was a vast difference between heaven and Earth.
A mournful expression quickly replaced the faint smile that had been on his face earlier.
"How is Lulu doing right now, I wonder? She's either sobbing or smiling. ... " His expression betrays intense need.
[Host, I think you'll undoubtedly meet her again someday... Only you need to increase your strength for the time being. You can do anything with strength, Host!] Yuan receives both consolation and encouragement from Nora.
Yuan said, "Thank you, Nora, your word really helped me.
