Two days after Levi started training Lee Hyunjin, Kim Jaehyun woke up. He was pale faced and had lost a quite bit of weight.

Vahriz explained to him a few things to bring him up to speed on everything that had happened and when he understood the situation he finally looked relieved.

Having corrupted spirit pulled out of you wasn't an easy process at all.... ah.... wait

Kim Jaehyun vividly remembered Lee Hyunjin saying he'd take the corrupted spirit from him. What the hell? Someone can do that?

He sat up and was about to leave his room to go find Lee Hyunjin. He needed to know if the other was okay but the moment he stepped onto his feet, he staggered and fell right back onto the bed. His body had close to no strength at all.

"Sir, you've been working hard all this time fending off the erosion that had started inside you but you're drained because of that and also, even if you're awake now, your organs still suffer from erosion, you need to start absorbing Eneri to heal them otherwise I'm afraid you'll rott from the inside out," Vahriz, a silver haired—brown eyed man said. He had a perfectly stoic expression on his face.

Kim Jaehyun clicked his tongue but he did as Vahriz said and sat back underneath the blankets with some help.

Meanwhile, Levi was sparring with Han Shinwoo and on the other side Lee Hyunjin was discussing something with two people from Levi's group.

After the short discussion, the three of them went and sat down at one of the tables that was prepared for them and in the next few minutes Lee Hyunjin and them started arm wrestling.

The first match was Lee Hyunjin against Riven. The reason they were doing this was because Riven wanted to find out how strong Lee Hyunjin was but the other didn't have any fighting techniques or methods so Riven suggested this.

Ten seconds in and the two were at a stale mate.

Lee Hyunjin was surprised whilst Riven was amazed, as an elite knight, to find someone in par with him outside the royal guard was refreshing.

"To think you had this much strength, I'm impressed," Riven said earnestly, there was a grin on his face as he spoke.

Lee Hyunjin also didn't know he had this much strength. "Thank you," he sincerely said, unable to mask the bit of nervousness he felt.

"He's fast on his feet too, what kind of training did you do?" Marcel asked, his voice was extremely quiet but Lee Hyunjin heard it just fine. In truth only Levi knew the some of the details of Lee Hyunjins life in Ifvnar, everyone else in his group didn't know anything apart from the fact that Lee Hyunjin lived in Ifvnar, so it wasn't surprising that Marcel would ask such a question.

"It wasn't like I did some actual training... it's..." Lee Hyunjin wasn't sure how to explain it so he just told them a bit about where and how he'd lived for the past couple of months before he met Levi and his group.

At the end of his story, Marcel had a slight frown and Riven's eyes were tearing up.  Riven sniffled, "it must have been hard man, do you need like a hug or something?"

Lee Hyunjin saw his tear stained face and thought, it looks like you're the one who needs a hug though.... "it's okay thank you, my friends took care of me so I made it."

Marcels expression relaxes and he spoke, "from what you've told us, your excessive running built the muscles in your thighs and calves, it also increased your stamina a lot, hence you're able to run for hours without tiring. You mentioned swimming and swinging on vines—
