Warm…
This was the exact feeling Damien had as the tears entered his throat
"Haa~ this feels amazing"
Letting out a moan of pleasure, his current state was hard to describe.
It was as if his body was being hugged from the inside out.
As if he had returned to his mother's womb, a warm feeling of vitality enveloped his whole being.
Under the rapid influx of life energy, his body began to change.
His once faint aura began to flow under this new stimulus, and his mana began to rise.
His blue eyes, which had previously lost some light, shone brighter than the sky itself.
It had only been a few seconds since he had drunk it, yet Damien felt like he had been reborn many times over.
"Not only that, but as my internal injuries and bones heal, I can feel them getting stronger"
"Constantly strengthening and recovering, it's no wonder the original protagonist got a major boost after consuming it"
"Right now, I feel like I can beat two of my previous selves!"
Clenching his fists, he grew power in between his fingers, which made him feel intoxicated.
His willpower in response to this began to grow, forming a connection with his aura and mana core.
Instantly, the growth rate of some of them tripled under this connection.
And to make things better, just when Damian was lost in his newfound power, his system suddenly sounded, attracting his attention.
[Detecting the host has awakened celestial life physiqe, stealing the original protagonist's opportunity]
[Detecting the host has fully absorbed the Golden dragon breathing method]
[Detecting the host is transforming]
[rewarding 10,000Dp..]
[Consuming 3000 Dp to guide proper energy absorption]
Without waiting for Damien to ask, sensing the oncoming energy, the system began to issue a series of rewards
So much so that seeing these notifications, a realisation suddenly came to his mind.
"So that's what happened! I always wondered why I didn't get a reward after we stole the breathing method"
"At first I thought it was because Italica wasn't there nor the dragon beasts, but it turns out it was because I never fully absorbed it"
"Only after awakening the Celestial life physiqe did I finally claim it for myself!"
Pausing slightly, he turned to the other notification
"Celestial Life physiqe, born from consuming the tears of the goddess of life, in the original story, after being given by the then elf princess, the protagonist awakened it"
"a physique that allowed him to manipulate both aura and mana easily without back clash, gain a strong affinity with nature and life magic, and an extraordinary healing factor that allowed him to recover from most injuries without fail"
"In this world where all kinds of crazy and weird physiques exist, this could easily last in the top thirty"
"Argh!!!!"
Just as he was about to continue analysing his situation, Damien couldn't help but let out a scream in pain.
No longer was it the familiar smooth healing embrace he felt before; rather, his whole body was in pain.
He seemed to feel his bones and muscles being shattered and put back together.
A pain so bad it reminded him of when he got Isabelle's ability in the carriage.
"Arghhh!"
"Damn it! Don't you dare faint, Damien! This is beneath you!"
"If you can't hold back on such little pain, then what reason do you think you can withstand the pain to come in the future!"
"To what reason do you think you can save your parents!"
"To what reason do you think that you can survive the trials to come! The anguish to experience and the loss to bear!"
Talking to himself, Damien bit his teeth, subconsciously mobilising his will.
Under this pressure, the bed and its surroundings began to creak
Unfortunately, he couldn't pay attention as he was currently occupied by the pain.
Right now, he had reached the peak of his transformation; he couldn't afford to falter for any reason, otherwise everything would be for nought.
A situation, Damien was most unwilling to see.
…................…
[Elf empire, Forbidden forest]
Time soon passed, and under the constant pain, a day and night had passed, pushing back his training.
Fortunately, that time was not wasted, as currently, Damien was completely transformed inside and out.
Five foot eight, he had unexpectedly shot up to six foot tall, adorned with muscles from head to toe and waist-length silver hair that sparkled in the night sky.
With his radiant blue eyes and skin without blemishes, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he had turned into a model overnight.
With a physique that surpassed most adults, at only twelve years old, Damien was a through-and-through anomaly.
A situation which he didn't mind, rather looked forward to, as only an anomaly can survive in this world of Gods and demons.
Now sitting cross-legged in an all-green robe surrounded by all kinds of trees and Plants, he was currently faced with Aelinor.
After waiting for so long, it was time for his training to begin.
"My dear nephew, it seems you decided to take your time hehe~"
"Those little girls of yours have been training while you were still busy, and judging from their pace of learning, if you're not careful, they'll soon surpass you"
Chuchkling lightly, Aelinor looked at her nephew with a wry smile.
In fact, she knew that absorbing the tears of the goddess of life would take him some time.
However, what she expected was at least a weak, yet he managed to absorb it in just two days. How could she not be surprised
"Monster!" she muttered inwardly.
A complete opposite of her outward disposition, where she poked fun at him for taking so long, after all, she couldn't afford her cute nephew becoming an arrogant bastard.
Thinking of this, she turned to get a closer look at him.
"Alright, kid, you've already wasted enough time, so let's start"
"What do you understand by mana?" she asked, raising a green orb of energy
