Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 1026: Exhausting

A few hours into teaching the two siblings how to fight, Ning stopped their training and sent them out of the virtual world.

They were disoriented when they came out of that world and took a moment to remember to unplug the headgear they were wearing.

The gear went up into its space on top of them, and the two siblings walked out.

"You will have to train physically too," Ning said. "It's good to give you instinct virtually, but if that won't translate to muscle memory, it won't be as good as we hope it will be."

"So… do we train again?" Jung-Hee asked.

"No, not today," Ning said. "It's already 4 in the morning, and while your body has been sleeping for the past 6 hours, your mind has not. So, you will have to go rest your mind too."

"Once you have a bit of cultivation and your mental state is improved, we can use full nights to train," he said.

The two siblings nodded as there wasn't anything else they could even think to do. Ning was going to teach them how to get better then they were going to accept it full-heartedly.

Ning showed the two of them to the guest rooms on the 3rd floor where they went to sleep.

After they were gone, Ning went to the living room and opened the TV there. He watched as he waited and just an hour later, Ely returned, this time with her brother.

Ning sighed. He had been waiting for this, but for some reason doing so much at once felt pretty exhausting.

He had always done many things back to back but somehow the difference in the tasks was making him feel burnt out. He needed to rest a bit to reset, but rest didn't seem like a luxury he could afford just yet.

Should he open up a portal and leave for some distant planet where he could live 5 years and come back in 5 days?

No, that was way too drastic of a move. He needed to do something simpler.

Just then, someone called him. Since the call was in the system, he easily saw the name of the caller. He was a little surprised and accepted the call.

"Director Sung? Why are you calling me at such an unus—"

"Oh thank god you're awake!" the director's voice came from the other side. "Ning, we need your help. Can you come right now?"

Ning's eyes narrowed. "Is this an emergency?" he asked.

"Sort of," the director said. "I just got a call from the prime minister saying that his wife has gone into a coma due to mana poisoning. He's freaking out right now and is asking for anyone that can help. I have a report saying that you can cure these sorts of illnesses, so I was hoping you could help."

"I can't really heal them, but I can get rid of them for a year or two," Ning said. "Tell the prime minister I will be there right now."

"I will," the director said. "Do you need the address?"

"No need," Ning said and ended the call. Once the call was over, he stood there for a moment as he was reminded of some other things he had to do.

He massaged his head as he remembered about the hundreds of thousands of people that were waiting for him to heal their Mana poisoning.

Fortunately, he was reminded of it so directly. If not, he would have spent weeks doing his own thing before getting to that problem.

'I can't go heal them right now though,' he thought. 'I still need a bit more before I can reach SSS-rank, and then go to the tier above it.'

That was the tier he needed to be to use the mass healing spell that cured the mana poisoning.

Ely walked into the living room with her brother who was in a daze looking around. He still couldn't figure out just how they were in a new house all of a sudden. After all, just a minute ago he was inside his closet with his apparently reborn sister.

"I need to go somewhere. I will be back in… well, I don't know," Ning said. "It might take a few minutes."

"Sure," Ely said. "I will give him some food and then have Blue or Night help me with the rest."

Ning nodded. "Alright, see you in a bit."

He teleported out of the room, surprising Chase once again. He quickly looked down at Ning's feet and didn't see any sort of drawings there. If there was nothing there then how was he teleporting?

Why did none of this make sense at all?

"Come on, brother. I've kept you from eating long enough," Ely said and dragged her brother to the kitchen.

Ning appeared outside a very high-security mansion while the world was still in shadows but the sky was getting brighter. The moment he appeared, the guards outside the gates immediately pointed their guns at him.

However, Ning wasn't scared at all. He simply pointed his fingers and the guns pointed away from him, out of the guard's control.

"I'm here to see the prime minister about his wife's illness," Ning said and waited at the gate for the guards to do something.

Someone picked up a small communicating device and called the house where they were quickly told to affirm that it was Ning and then let him in.

The guards squinted their eyes and pointed flashlights at him and finally realized who they were looking at.

"My apologies, sir. We didn't recognize you," they said, bowing at the waist multiple times. Ning chuckled a bit and waved his hands.

"No need to apologize, you were just doing your job."

One of the guards showed him the way into the mansion and very soon Ning arrived in front of a nervous man who Ning didn't recognize from his face, but from his importance in the hallway.

"Sir prime minister?" he asked. "I am here to help."
