DEATH… AND ME

Frandin was lucky that Roan could use the Light Element like Rean.
That being said, he healed Frandin ’s injuries when they reached an unbearable point.
Though that wouldn ’t stop Roan ’s training.
Frandin wasn ’t even given time to recover his Spiritual Energy and Soul Power.
After the first battle against the demon bulls, Frandin had been battling at 50% or less of his energy reserves.
Roan simply never let him completely rest up.

Frandin couldn ’t help but remember Roan ’s words. 

”What will happen to you if you ’re pursued by someone much stronger and have no time to recover? Would you just give up your life like that? ” said Roan back as he snorted.
”I ’m doing it for you to understand that you wouldn ’t always be able to battle at your peak condition.
Besides, forcing yourself in this situation will definitely bring even more of your latent potential out. ”

That ’s why although Malaka seemed to be the worst one out of them at the moment, Frandin had been in her state or worse at least three times.
He thanked the heavens that he had also asked Rean for chain mail.

Roan narrowed his eyes, seeing that Frandin didn ’t answer.

*Ouch!*

Roan immediately slapped Frandin ’s backhead, which brought the guy back to reality.

”Ah! Sorry, I was lost in my thoughts, ” said something that sounded like Frandin ’s voice from that spiritless body.
”The demon cores, right? I ’ll sell them once we ’re back since I ’ll also have to go to the Formations Guild. ” After hearing that, Rean and the others couldn ’t help but feel some pity for him.

Roan then sent the Demon Cores into the Dimensional Realm before continuing, ”Alright, time to test everyone ’s Soul Power Points. ” 

As Roan said that, the Soul Measurement Crystal appeared in the middle of the snowfield while saying, ”I hope all of you followed the training schedule to the boot.
If you did so, all of you should have surpassed the 40 points I required. ”

Frandin and everyone else couldn ’t help but swallow a bit of saliva after hearing that.
As much as they followed Roan ’s training schedule (Mostly because they were afraid Roan would find out if they didn ’t), they weren ’t sure if they reached it.
Sure, each one of them passed through a few dangerous situations, especially Malaka.
But after looking at that zombie who was once called Frandin, they wondered if it was enough.

As soon as Rean finished healing Malaka ’s injuries, Roan called her first.
”First, Malaka.
Your Soul Power Measurement before was 28 points.
In other words, you must have attained at least 12 points during these last three days. ”

Malaka nervously nodded as her trembling hand touched the crystal.
She truly didn ’t want to think what Roan would do if she failed.
Malaka ’s Soul Mark lit up before she sent her Soul Power into the crystal.
A few minutes later, her result appeared at the top as two numbers far greater than what Malaka expected had appeared.

-Soul Power, 59-

”That much? ”

Sure enough, Roan was right.
The improvement of a new driver during a specific time would be much greater than an experienced one.
Malaka ’s Soul Power was a testament to this fact.
