Chapter 39 Training #2

Eero appeared in front of his house just as he was about to enter. "Eero, sir, wait." Listening to the familiar sound, he stopped.Turned around, looking at Marcie running in his direction, with her flickering ponytails in the air.

Appeared and halted in front of him.

"Do you need anything?" Eero asked doubtfully.

"No, I am here to just ask about your progress. Also, I want to invite you to a practice session," Marcie replied with a smile.

Eero was surprised, looking at her. "Practice session?"

"It's a friendly fighting challenge. Don't worry, I am very strong," Marcie explained while proudly showing her thin arm and a little bulging biceps.

Eero was speechless, looking at her hopeful expression. He thoughtfully nodded. "Okay."

Marcie responded with a smile and pointed at a building far away. "Let's go. That is the training area."

Eero nodded and appeared inside the training building with her, looking at the open area inside the building and the protection material used in the surrounding walls.

"These walls are made from high-grade materials. You can use full strength here; they won't be damaged," Marcie explained with a smile.

'I have enforced them. No one can destroy them in this universe,' she thought to herself.

Eero nodded and appeared in the middle area, standing in front of Marcie. Looking at her, he nodded and spoke. "Let's do it."

"Get ready," Marcie spoke solemnly.

Instantly, Marcie appeared beside him with a serious expression, and a punch was expanding in Eero's vision; his eyes widened.

Dual Domain x1000

Thud!

Eero slid back a few meters, looking at Marcie confusedly, rubbing away his nose, feeling the warm sensation. He looked at the blood drops on his palm, which flowed out from his nostril. 'Blood? Am I injure'd?

"Are you okay, Mr. Eero? I am sorry I couldn't control my strength," Marcie spoke nervously, looking at him.

'Why did my speed slow down, reaching near his body? Was that a time abilit'y? thought in her heart.

Looking at her innocent face and nervous expression, Eero became solemn. 'I have used a 1000-fold dual domain. It only affected her strength a little. This girl is a monster.'

Looking at Marcie seriously, he replied. "Nothing. It's just I wasn't paying attention. Please go on."

"Okay," Marcie nodded seriously, correcting her battle stance.

Dual Domain x4000

'This time I will attack.' Eero's expression also got solemn as he increased his domain to 4000 and stepped toward Marcie's direction. Instantly, she disappeared again in front of him.

Eero halted alertly, looking around. He expanded his senses fully and instantly flinched. 'Here she comes. I can't believe she is still faster than me in the 4000-fold domain,' he glanced to the left.

Air popped beside his left ear. Eero backed to the right and punched toward her face in return. The next second, Marcie's figure flickered.

'It's Teleport?' Eero felt a crisis.

Marcie appeared beside his right side, aiming at his waist with a wicked smile on her face.

Eero backed away, pushing his limits and instantly increasing his domain fully.

Dual Domain x8192

Looking at Marcie, his speed slowed down a little. Eero sighed in relief and raised his hand at 8000-fold reflexes to grab her punch.

Upon grabbing the punch, his face changed.

"An afterimage?" Eero exclaimed in shock.

His face changed, looking at Marcie, turning into an afterimage as if her body was moving on her own and punching his chest at a faster movement and speed than before.

Eero's face was agonized, feeling unimaginable pain in his chest.

Boom!

The whole building shook; even the land vibrated.

Eero flew and embedded inside the wall behind, bending it to the extreme. 'Why does this girl have such strength in my domain? Also, why did her movement increase so much in that instant?'

Eero fell on the ground thoughtfully, enduring the pain, feeling all his bones broken and scattering inside his body.

Instantly, his body became red, visible to the naked eye. Smoke started emitting from all over his body, bones popped, and chest and other injuries started recovering at a fast speed. The blood outside his body started evaporating, disappearing.

Eero stood up after a while, feeling his strength in surprise. 'It's almost tripled from before, which means my body and soul attributes reached 3 million.'

Marcie, on the other side, was intriguingly looking at Eero standing up again. 'Amazing. Such injury and battle increased his strength. Also, it seems he can control time in a limited range. What a rare ability and interesting morta'l.

A gleam flashed through Marcie's eyes. 'Let's see where your limits are.'

Eero shivered, looking at Marcie's gleaming eyes. A bad premonition spread through his heart.

"I am going to attack again, Mr. Eero," Marcie spoke, instantly disappearing before hearing Eero's response.

Eero became alert instantly, released his domain fully, and dodged her again, avoiding the punch attack. 'Because of my attribute increase, I can feel and avoid her attack.' He looked at the attack's afterimages and sensed Marcie's body movement.


'Here is the chance.' Instantly looking at the opening in Marcie's movement, he punched toward her chest.

Marcie's mouth arced, turning into an afterimage. Eero's punch passed through her body.

Eero's face sank. 'Not again.' Instantly, his eyes darkened, the building shook again, and another wall was dented and cracked.

Eero lay on the floor, bloody, his bones rejoining and his shredded chest regrouping. His body smoked, and the blood around him evaporated.

Marcie raised her hand, looking at the blood drop disappearing slowly. She was surprised. 'This blood is mortal, but it has divine potential.'

Eero stood up again, feeling high consumption. It's not his physical stamina but Qi consumption. Looking at his body repairing at a fast pace, 'It seems my body healing consumes too much Qi, but still, my strength has increased a lot.'

[Attribute: 8 million]

[Time Domain: 16,384 Fold]

Reviewing the attributes and his domain,

"Mr. Eero, should we continue?" Marcie spoke with a smile and a looking-forward expression.

Eero was speechless, looking at her excited eyes. 'This girl is taking fun in abusing me. But with a 16000-fold domain, maybe I can slow her down a little. But I should try to fight back now. It's uncomfortable to get abused, especially in the girl's hand.'

"Well, please go on," Eero replied after taking a deep breath.

The clash started again.

Dual Domain x16000

'Why is this?' Eero was surprised, dodging and attacking while looking at the speedy afterimages and flashes of Marcie. She is dodging every attack; his heart sank.

'It seems she is doubling her speed every time my domain increases,'

Eero thought to himself. The next second, his vision darkened again, and the whole building trembled.
