Capítulo 23: Chapter 23: Ash’s Resolve
"Hey Aaron, you got quite taller, let's check your height now" said Max as he carried Ash who was still in the armor over to a wall outside with height markings. Aaron stood at the height measure, "5' 8, nice son, you grew by a whole foot". "Hey dad, what are you and moms height?" asked Ash. "I am 5 '10 while your mom is 5' 4, you know, someone who actually met, or rather saw someone in the B-Rank Realm said that going into that realm makes you much taller" said Max. Ash nodded and Max brought her back to the same spot, Ash was determined after seeing her brother break through. Replanting her hands, Ash continued pushing with all her might, almost all the muscles in her body were activated, as time passed, Ash managed to lift herself off the ground more and more.
While Ash continued, Aaron cleaned himself and told his dad he was going to the village for a bit. After running off, Aaron went to his secret hang out spot, with the intention of practicing his skills more. This gave all of Max's attention to Ash, eventually it was time for lunch. Max took off his armor and Ash's armor, carrying her to the table to eat. Ash's whole body was shaking and not liking the feeling of all the sweat, Ash cleaned herself using her magic. Using the manual to recover her strength, the food was delivered by Marilda who brought a cup of the two potions Saffiyah gave Ash. "Drink this before you start eating" said Marilda as Ash took the cups and drank them, then started eating her food.
'Hey Ash, stop using the manual, I'll practice it and see if it affects your body' said Grim. 'Sure' replied Ash as Grim circulated the ethereal recovery manual, the feeling of the manual enveloped Ash's body, forming a small smile across her face. 'Think you could practice the manual while I train' said Ash. Grim had a smile on her face as she continued her practice. In a couple of minutes with almost half of Ash's plate being eaten, her body made a full recovery. "Hey dad, why does Aaron have a much easier time using the training armor when he only has endurance at the C-Rank Realm" asked Ash. "Like I said earlier, the armor is meant for training to break through to that realm, its special equipment that has been modified so that people at lower realms can use it" replied Max. Ash nodded and continued eating, 'Hey Ash, this manual has four sections to it, so far all we've practiced was the first one that we use the environment's neutral mana to recover. According to this, the second section is where we inhale the neutral mana, this speedens the ethereal recovery manual and with higher mastery you could use the manual passively. I'll take partial control and try to use the second section' said Grim which Ash agreed too.
When Grim tried to enter the subconscious, she was flung back, 'I guess before we do that I should try and fix that problem'. Grim instead practiced syncing hers and Ash's mana, as the mana flowing through their body was completely Ash's. Ash finished eating and rushed outside, taking the armor and putting it on, Ash did the smart thing and layed down before activating it, continuing her strength training. Max took a bit talking to Saffiyah about their son's break through, eventually going outside with two cups of juice. He grabbed a chair and sat down a little bit away from Ash. 'Hey Ash, where is the ethereal recovery manual?' asked Grim. 'It's not in our individual mana pools but it should be floating in the center of our core' said Ash. This explained why Grim was able to use the manual and it worked on their body despite her mana not circulating through the body.
While Ash continued physical training, Grim explored why she couldnt use her mana in the body. She tried fusing their mana, making her mana flow in sync with Ash's, and even tried brute force, the only result was Ash's mana consuming her own. After many attempts, one of her skill orbs caught her attention, it was a skill that allowed Grim to take over the body and use Ash's mana. Going over to it, Grim noticed that the mana going through it was extremely low, it was the only skill orb that had a stream of ash's mana and her own. Grim lowered down her train of thought and tried sensing the bond between her and Ash, once finding it, she tried to restore its past strength. This caused a huge surge of both her own and Ash's mana, as the duo's mana flowed into the core and into the body, the rivaling mana pools stopped fighting and their core continued its peaceful circulation again.
Ash's body had a huge surge of energy, two different types of mana flowed through her meridians, making Ash's close combat skill stronger. Ash finally managed to push herself all the way up, moving her left leg first and planting her foot right under her belly. Shifting her balance, she planted her right foot and after a full minute stood up.
