Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Step 1
{Age 2 years 4 months}
I returned and told Nina all I had discovered. We discussed and afterwards all we realized how desperately we need more power...
As she lay peacefully on my chest, I a gently rub her back as if to caress away my own guilt. She tries to hide it but I can tell she worried, she's scared of me possibly dying , she worries about our uncertain future in this chaotic world. I feel as though I've failed her, isn't she suppose to be enjoying a new life of luxury ? Living just for fun and adventure in this fantasy world ? Doing all she couldn't in our last life even if it's deciding to spent her whole life in the library, I chuckles as i can really imagine her doing that. She should know with me by her side it is the universe that has to fear her wrath but the reality is.... *sigh* how naive my thoughts were before rebirth..... Now look at her!?, so much weight on her tiny sholders, will that tiny back bare it? Even I can't help but worry what will happen to this world if I die! If it disappears how will you live this ruthless world. I shudder as I can know her, either she will suicide to follow me, after losing herself in revenge and trying to bring me to life. With either one what will she have to sacrifice? Her freedom? Her sanity? Her soul? Or her mind and body?. No matter what it is I can never allow it! I need strength to avoid all those posebillities and her to be strong enough to have options in the worst case scenario.
So we formulated a plan, Step 1 pump up our foundation training! Reach completion with body foundation art as it will allow easier training and unseal a bit of our latent potential. The second goal will be reaching consolidation of our first energy, mana , with the meditation technique thus gaining the ability to literally see mana with the first eye power - mage sight.All this by the time I turn 5 and Nina 6.We don't want half complete paths in everything as it will only lead to half results , only being masters of all can we hope to surpus all. Thus we set a 2 year 8 month goal! Our routine had to change.
Firstly I told my mother I would be back be back before I was 5 and she just told me to be careful then let me go.' *sigh* gods and their warped sense of normality, and to think I had prepared a whole speech to convince her! '. We changed waking up to 4am, cut TLC time to 1,5 hours and completely removed free time and reading time.
With this our days of pain started, body training from 4 am to 12 am and boy was it rough. Now we approached it with new eyes, there was increase intensity whether skin tears and sweat flows from forehead to eyes while the sun is baring its fangs on the earth we just kept going. Maybe because of difference in body structure of males I had a particularly bad time, ligament tears occurred everyday and sometime whole muscles could be seen dangling or unnatural stretched and positioned out of place but how could I stop when Nina kept on going. Even when I tried hiding it I know Nina noticed it thus causing her to work harder, motivating me to also push my limits... Like this we would just rest in each other's warmth as we rest during TLC time. Then at 13:30 we meditate until 11:30 with the last 30 minute used to get all the necessary food in our bodies before bed because we were taking less food breaks.
It was literally blood, sweat and tear, like this 2 years 7 months passed. I looked about 14 and Nina looked 11.I lost my baby fat and gained chiseled muscles in my swimmer body... My muscle structure is so much better than my last life I actually have 14 pec abs now! Bulky chest and even my arms and legs have visible muscle striations, I look like a Greek God - well I guess I am one now... As for Nina, her breast, bubbly butt and irresistible hips already so big. Every time she sits on my lap the sensation on my dick almost makes me moan - she is so fucking hot. I have to control myself, even though we are married I wanted to hold a marriage in this life and take her virginity then.
Our status attributes didnt increase much as it was just foundation for future growth.

The foundation training was complete. Our bodies were perfect for almost any weapon, we were the perfect mage with a growing stable magic core due to mediation and our seed of potential was ready to start sprouting.
