Transmigrate to another world

Chapter 127 The Trials [ 14 ]

That is getting a bit ahead of myself though, there is still a lot of hard work I need to put in to learn and master these forms. My main problem now is boredom, just practicing the sword all day every day is going to drive me mad. But if I do other things then it will take longer to get out of here.

If I completely focus I think I can get out of here in a year, the question is will I still be sane by the end of the year. But if I do other things so I'm not as bored it could take as long as two years. Also the more bored I am the more loneliness will be an issue.

In my past life I would go days or weeks without talking to anyone but that was when I had manga to read. Also I was very lazy and never really exercised, this is the complete opposite. Doing nothing but exercise and being bored the whole time, I don't think I can do it.

Krenocia and Seronia said they would try to show up if I open the soulscape. That would help with the loneliness, and I do have questions I still want to ask. Like why the drake didn't have a mana core, I spent hours searching for one. Does that mean it isn't a mana beast, if so then what is it?

Yet it has only been a few hours outside, I can't bother them again yet. I should wait at least a month before I open another soulscape. That way enough time will have passed outside for Leyla to have received the message and medallion.

It would probably be better for my training if I just temporarily forget about everything in the outside world. The more I can focus the faster I can escape and rejoin my friends. Yeah, for now I should focus completely on mastering pierce, when I can't stand it anymore I will carve bones.

Two weeks later...

'Well, that is awesome. Too bad it's all defensive, but still pretty awesome. It doesn't really help me with my current situation, but it will make me much harder to kill once I get out of here.'

Then I try working on my core again, except nothing happens. I completely deplete my demonic power but my core progress remains at zero. I will keep trying after I rest, but maybe rank two is as high as meditation can take me.

I was so sure I would be able to go further and build up my power this way. If I can't progress to the next rank at least then I am going to have to count on swordsmanship. That means spending at least ten years in here to master the sword, which means months at least will pass outside.

If I am not around will everyone be able to survive for months? Will they even be able to escape the soldiers? Can they make it to the rebels in the forest without me?

No way! I can't let them be hurt! I have to figure out a way to raise my rank at least one more time!
