However, the stink from Tron\'s made them unable to ask. They quickly sold the items to him and collected his coins.

Tron then proceeded back to his room, slowly limping as though he was about to collapse on the road.

Reaching his room, he tied the live chicken to the door and proceeded to stew the frozen chickens with the last bit of rice he had.

In under an hour and a half, everything was ready but in just a few minutes, two whole chickens had been consumed, and even the bones weren\'t spared, leaving just the live chicken left and just a single grain of rice in his pot.

"Burb."

Tron belched in satisfaction. Although not thoroughly full, it was more than enough to satisfy him.

But then, Tron frowned. He had spent all of his savings to buy this food which would usually last him a week but he had consumed it in just ten minutes.

Now, he was broke. Although Jason\'s Silver coins were still with him, he couldn\'t afford to spend silver coins in this Servant\'s manor as the news would spread and bring him endless trouble.

The only thing he could do was hunt in the forest and eat there no matter how dangerous it was.

The more he thought about it, the more good of an idea it sounded.

Looking at his watch, it was almost 2 at noon.

Immediately, Tron continued his pushups without hesitation.

Two hours passed, and he stopped his push-up.

[+ 0.82 strength]

Quickly dressing himself up to be sickly once more he then headed deep into the forest.

When he saw he was far away and no one was staring, Tron picked up the pace. With his speed, he moved like a cheetah as branches whipped around him with speed. Even his surroundings were turning to blur.

Seeing that it was far enough, he settled near a stream and set down his pot, the live chicken, and other items on the ground.

It was 4:20 pm, and he had wasted time to get here.

Without hesitation, he hooked his feet against the bottom of a boulder and started his sit-up exercise.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

He couldn\'t afford to waste any time. Time is valuable stat points!

This time he immediately stopped once he saw the notification for completed sit-ups.

[+1.1 stat points]

Another two hours had passed. And now, it was 6:20 pm.

Tron knew he had gotten carried away with his strength exercise which was why had was late for his agility exercise.

He was about to start his agility training when his stomach rumbled again.

Tyrion smiled bitterly and he glanced at the live chicken. He wanted to use the chicken to test one of his theories about the crystal.

Tron grab the crystal. However, the Crystal\'s color had dimmed and right now, it looked like an ordinary purplish crystal.

Tron glanced at it with confusion before he figured it out. "Seems like it only works at night." Tyrion tilted his head upwards and saw it was almost nighttime.

Although he was too hungry, he decided to wait a bit.

He hadn\'t seen any rabbit on his way. Hence, he couldn\'t afford to lose the only live beast with him.

As nighttime came, they started to glow as a purplish light reflected off Tron\'s face.

He cast a glance at the unconscious chicken and lifted his hand to grab it over.

After squeezing its beak to ensure it couldn\'t make any sound, he then took out the dagger on his waist and directly sliced open a wound on the bird\'s body.

As the bird struggled, Tron stuffed the purple crystal inside it.

After that, he observed it with meticulous attention.

He saw that at the start, the bird was still struggling. But very soon, undercurrents surged from all directions and the entire forest started to sway as though a Strom was coming.

In an instant, Tron felt pure mana being attracted from all over. In fact, the amount of mana was even more in comparison to what an Acolyte gathered when they meditated.

The arcane energy then gushed into the bird\'s body.

And right now, the intensity of the chicken struggle grew stronger by many times. Despite Tron using his full strength, he felt that he actually could no longer control the chicken so easily.

This scene caused the light in Tron\'s eyes to intensify.

In the past, he could easily snap the neck with a gentle squeeze. But at this moment, he had to use more than half his strength to squeeze it several times before he managed to snap its neck.

He then swiftly took the purple crystal out and wiped it before his brightened eyes glowed as he contemplated.

"The chicken actually didn\'t die. On the contrary, magical energy flooded its body and its strength suddenly became extremely great..."

"Does this mean this thing could act as an Arcana Cortex!?"

Tron\'s mind almost exploded as his heart thumped rapidly. He then closed his eyes and calmed himself.

A moment later, Tron opened his eyes. His eyes now gleamed with determination, and he directly inserted the purple crystal into his chest wound that had yet to recover fully.

The process of stuffing it inside was somewhat painful, but Tron endured the pain by gritting his teeth.

There was no place safer to hide the crystal than within himself.

Also, he did a simple test and it seemed that this item would have better effects by placing it within his body.

As the purple crystal fused into his body, the wound suddenly started closing up rapidly though his skin was being zipped.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound echoed from within his body before Tron could react.

An even greater amount of energy wave swirled around Tron as a cyclone swirled through the entire forest!

It was even more massive compared to what the chicken had created.

Massive amounts of mana gathered from every direction, absorbed by the cyclone, and then seeped through Tron\'s pores and into the skin.

Even the ground wasn\'t spared.

The massive magical energy was just too shocking. Hence, Tron\'s body instantly glowed with a faint purplish color as an indescribable chill coursed through his entire body.

The shocking amount of energy invaded Tron\'s body like a dam, spreading through every single part of his body and even his skull as though searching for something.

However, it seemed like it wasn\'t able to find what it was looking for and eventually settled down in his body.

Immediately, Tron\'s cells became saturated with immense energy.

His muscles, cells, blood, and bones began to expand rapidly like a balloon, as arcane energy saturated his entire body to the brim!

He felt like if this went on for long, his body would eventually burst apart!
