My Muscles Adapt 10,000 Times Faster

〘+0.01 strength〙

As he reached his limits, glowing numbers floated above him like ghostly figures, however, Tron couldn't afford to be distracted and he focused on his exercise.

In under ten minutes, he went from fifty-nine reps to 100 reps before reaching his limit.

〘+0.01 strength〙

Sweat soaked his entire body and his bandaged chest, back and arm stung. However, the pain had reduced drastically as his body adapted to it.

Within 20 minutes, Tron growled lowly like a vicious beast.

"Two-hundred and twenty!"

"Bam!"

He collapsed to the ground as he gasped for massive columns of air, a smile of satisfaction on his lips.

In the first set, he could only perform 59 push-ups. In the second set, he did 80, in the third set he went directly to 100 the fourth set 150 and in the fifth set, directly from 150 to 220!

〘+0.32 strength〙

That was the total number of points he had earned during the exercise.

Checking his daily quest once more.

〘Punishment: DEATH!〙

"Finally!"

Tron sighed in relief. It was good the system wasn't that broken.

"Grrrr! "

Tron felt his belly growl as an overwhelming feeling of hunger enveloped him. He felt as though he hadn't eaten in over three days!

Looking at the pot of leftover porridge, Tron was reluctant. The porridge was meant to serve him for today and tomorrow. However, it could barely satisfy him.

Without hesitation, he dug in and in under a minute, he finished the entire porridge, scraping the bottom pot so as not to miss a single food. Wasting food is really bad.

Using the energy, he started the sit-ups and his expression changed slightly.

He couldn't perform up to thirty Sit up! But he wasn't disappointed.

Tron sighed as he waited for his body to adapt completely which happened in under a minute. This time, was able to perform up to thirty situps after struggling and breathing as though he was about to go into labor.

Glowing numbers floated in from of him, representing he had reached his limit.

However, Tron persevered but he eventually wasn't able to move his upper body all the way to his knees as he collapsed to the ground, wincing from the pain in his back.

"This is going to take a while," Tron mumbled.

...

〘+0.47 physique 〙

An hour later, Tron collapsed into his own puddle of sweat. His room stunk so bad it overwhelmed the smell of the rat hiding in his room.

However, Tron was too exhausted to care about that right now.

"Huff!" "Huff!" "Huff!"

He focused his gaze on the daily quest.

❰Daily quest:❱

〘200 Push Ups (20)/200) Completed〙

〘200 Sit Ups (200/200) Completed〙

〘Run 20 kilometers (0/20) incomplete〙

...

Within twenty seconds his heavy breathing subsided, in thirty seconds, his rapidly pounding heart rate went from 90 beats per minute to 40 bpm and in forty seconds, the fatigue in his muscles completely vanished, replaced by newfound strength.

"I recovered even faster this time."

Tron muttered slowly as he clenched his fist.

However, this exercise took him about an hour to complete.

All that was left now was the running part. It was going to be the hardest since it was outdoors and Agility was the lowest stats. However, Tron wasn't discouraged.

After drinking three full bottles of water, Tron opened the door to his shed.

But paused as he stepped outside. He suddenly remembered where he was.

This was Darkbane Magical Academy, everywhere including the academy is soaked with dangers and unknown horrors. Especially when it's past 7 pm, servants lose their lives at night every day to the unknown terrors and no one dared step foot outside when it's past curfew time.

It was unknown if there were creatures roaming about in the academy or the acolyte kidnapping the servants to use for arcane experiments.

But right now, the time was precisely 8:44 pm!

...

Tron hesitated. The unknown dangers out there are unknown for a reason. No one who encountered them survived to tell the stories.

But what was more scary than a looming blade hanging over one's head, ready to reap one's life at midnight? He didn't want to risk his life to test whether the system's punishment was real or simply a plain threat.

However, the only trail Tron could follow for the exercise was the one that led to the forest. The others either lead back to the city or to other parts of the academy.

The trail back to the city was guarded by Rune knights. He would be killed without mercy if he was ever found out moving around without permission. And the paths to the academy were off-limits to servants. So the only other option was the dangerous path to the forest.

Tron gritted his teeth and decided. "As long as I don't deviate from the path, I should be fine. I can even check on my trap."

Although he said this, he was still skeptical. Right now, he was still the weakest even amongst the Servants. The increase in his stats did little to protect him.

As insurance, Tron went back to his room and took the rusty knife in his hands for safety measures.

He also placed a small lamp on his neck for extra protection from monsters.

After a deep breath, he started his run and headed deep into the forest.

At this time, the night wind was chilling cold and he could hear faint ripples of whispers echoing along it.

A few minutes later, Tron leaned violently against a large tree.

His breathing heavily as he felt as though his chest was about to collapse after running a single 1.2km according to the counter in the daily quest.

He couldn't believe he wasn't even able to cover a kilometer radius.

However, it didn't matter right now. With his ability, it was only a matter of time before his body got stronger.

After a minute, his breathing and heart rate went back to normal as his sore leg muscles healed and his body returned to normal temperature.

Tron repeated this cycle again and again. Once he reached his limit, he would persevere, utilizing his entire willpower to push himself even further until he couldn't move his muscles before stopping.

The more he persists, the faster he will become in the next set.

Only by doing this would he be able to take full advantage of his 10,000 times adaptability and gain more strength.

This cycle continued for more than 2 hours before Tron was finally able to get close to a 20km run.

...

At this moment, Tron whizzed through the forest, his speed getting faster and faster as the surrounding branches constantly whipped against his body, causing tears on his skin.

But in his focused state, Tron barely registered such a low level of pain.

As he rushed through the forest, he covered even more ground.

[Ding! Daily Quest completed]

However, Tron ignored the notification. Feeling the burning sensation in his legs, the adrenaline pumping through his veins as his heart pounded as though it was about to jump out of his chest.

A feeling of euphoria enveloped Tron as he reached his limit. However, he continued running. He couldn't even feel his legs anymore as his muscles burned and his temperature soared.

However, even with his insane ability to adapt, there was still a limit to his body where his muscles temporarily shut down.
