章節 74: Results earned through hard work... and a cheat (part 1)

Third week of training. 

Sheyla stopped talking to Aito again. Not surprising, considering the outcome of their fight. Still, she would show up on the third floor every day for her daily quest or simply for training. 

Not that Aito cared much about it. But somehow, he felt he wasn't nearly done yet with her. 

After his duel with Sheyla, Aito resumed his training as per usual. Broken bones, bruises, exhaustion.

After three weeks, he started to get used to the pain. Added to that, the daily injuries he had suffered on the island, Aito was progressively developing resistance to physical pain. 

Not a skill, just a mental state where one would be used to injuries to the point of being capable of keeping a clear head, even with broken bones. Much like Sheyla and her broken fist. 

The pain was still there, but instead of impeding Aito's thought process, it would be more akin to a companion staying by his side. An annoying companion.
