Chapter 6: Do your best to become stronger.
When he talked about some lofty theories, people around him looked confused, which made Li De feel very unfulfilled.

But there is no other way, after all this is not the world of pirates, and besides, Li De has no way to tell everyone the true source of the swordsman's standard.

"Can this kind of thing really be done?" Finn couldn't help but ask.

"Do you know what the symbol of a swordsman is? Slash! Well, I guess you don't understand what slash means. To put it more intuitively, it means that Aisi swings a sword with her condensed strength, and a crack will appear on the wall opposite her. This is called slash."

As soon as Li Decai finished speaking, Bert on the side started to argue as usual: "Is this true? The slashing blow was not something you imagined, was it?"

"Just because you haven't seen it, Bert, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Of course, you probably won't believe it if no one has done it. This is just a direction I give Ess to work towards. Whether she can do it depends on herself." Li De had no intention of continuing.

"I'll try my best." Ai Si answered sincerely.

For her, who has nowhere to go at the moment, having a direction to work towards is much better than wasting time and energy aimlessly.

"Okay, let's not talk about this topic anymore. The Monster Festival will be here in a few days. More and more people are coming to Orario, so I'm afraid we need to send more staff to the porcelain workshop." With the pillar industry now in place, Finn had to focus on this cash cow. After all, with a turnover of several hundred million faris a year, even Loki's followers, who were mainly engaged in exploration, dared not ignore it.

As the new day began, Li De began his introductory training with Ai Si.

Although Reed's ring-handled sword is different from the [Sword of Despair] used by Ai Si, at least it is not a dagger like Bell's weapon with a very different length. Naturally, the teaching method cannot be used in actual combat training. After all, Reed's current strength is at least ten days' improvement away from Bell's during actual combat training.

After starting training, Li De finally realized how happy it was to train with a backer and resources.

Compared to Bell who has to go to the dungeon to kill monsters and make money after training every day with a bruised face, Li De doesn't have to worry about anything. He just needs to focus on training and spend every minute seriously and hard.

Of course, these are not all. The real gap lies in logistics.

If you feel tired, there are physical strength potions. The first training will inevitably cause muscle soreness, but that’s okay. There are targeted drugs that can greatly relieve and restore the soreness, allowing Li De to train for more than 10 hours a day.

In other words, except for the time for eating and resting, Li De basically devoted himself to the special training.

Three days later, Loki updated Reed's [Ability Value] for the first time after the special training began. After seeing the data on Reed's back, his originally squinted eyes suddenly opened with a large amplitude.

Li De: Lv1
Strength: I 32-G 212
Durability: I 54-E 487
Technique: I 28-F 302
Agility: I 12-E 432
Magic: I 0-H 108

"So this is what [Wholehearted Longing] means. The effect of this skill is truly terrifying. In just three days, it has achieved results that others may not be able to achieve in at least three months." Seeing the leap-forward changes on Li De's back, Loki immediately understood the true function of the skill [Wholehearted Longing].

I originally thought it was a pity that Li De was too old, but now it seems that it is not too late.

But then he shook his head. He was too old after all. Even if he could delay aging after upgrading, it was too late to start. However, at this rate, he would probably be able to upgrade in less than two months. The record held by Ai Si would be broken. He should consider the title for him in advance.

A rare skill, a rare magic, should have a special title.

Well, at this moment, Loki's mind had already flown to who knows where.

After getting his updated ability value, Li De also showed a satisfied smile.

Just as the Lolita God said in the novel, as long as one trains seriously and hard, it can also be transformed into growth nutrients within the range of divine power extraction. He just needs to work harder.

As for the Monster Festival, I had gotten tired of it in the past three years. It was the same every year. Ganesha's followers were purely perfunctory in their attitude, and I didn't know whether it was intentional or out of numbness.

Compared to watching the unoriginal monster festival, Li De would rather spend his time on practicing, seizing every minute to make himself stronger.

There is not much time left before leaving. After that thing is done, my journey to the wrong world will end.

As night fell, when Ai Si returned to the base with the [Sword of Despair] she had repaired and a sad face, Li De knew that the time for her to upgrade was just around the corner.

Calculating the time, he should start his monster-killing journey in a week at most. It’s not that he wants to compete with Bell Crany to see who can level up faster, but mainly because that matter cannot wait. Reed hopes that he can improve his strength as much as possible before leaving this world, so as to have enough self-protection ability in the next world.

A week passed quickly. When the last two people of the team who went to the dungeon returned and Loki screamed out the news of Ais's upgrade, Reed stepped into the dungeon again.

Bert was still accompanying Reed this time, but Reed was not the same Reed he was ten days ago.

Before setting off, Li De found Loki and updated his [Ability Value] again, and the data was as follows.

Li De: Lv1
Power: G 212-C 659
Durability: E 487-B 764
Technique: F 302-D 553
Agility: E 432-B 724
Magic: H 108-E 456

The increase in the numerical value was very exaggerated, but Loki, who had already experienced a shock, seemed much calmer the second time. Moreover, Loki was very clear about one thing, that is, the skill [Devoted Wholeheartedly] had no effect on upgrading.

No matter how fast the basic stats increase, you cannot upgrade without enough great deeds.

But even so, this skill is very exaggerated. The value that ordinary adventurers need ten months or even longer to reach, Li De only took ten days. The gap is so exaggerated that it makes people feel scary just thinking about it.

With his strength improved, Li De, accompanied by Bert, killed monsters one level at a time.
