Chapter 13 Training Part 2

If it wasn't for Sam giving me encouragement I wouldn't have gotten back on that machine. I spent the next three hours running, jumping, and essentially improving my moving abilities.After that I was pretty much dead. I just laid on the ground away from the machine coated in flames to show Sam I'd had enough. At the very least she fed me to keep my energy up. It was a strange meat substance that reminded me of spam except it was a deep green. I was very suspicious of it at first. I looked around to see that every creature in the room had something they were eating. That dragon from before was actually eating the same thing I was. It actually seemed to enjoy it. I turned to it and brought me head close. It had no smell. None. Nothing to go my. I took a little nibble. It tasted like nothing I'd ever eaten before. Like pork and beef and chicken but it was different in the fact I felt energy crackle through me as I ate that small piece. It filled me. It felt like energy was pouring through my tired muscles as my mind became more awake. (This is good!) I chowed down.

Since I had no hands or utensils and considering I hadn't eaten anything since coming to this world I was starving. I shoved my head in and did what I had to. In the back of my mind I heard the system going off.

/ Host has consumed combination meat. Host has consumed orc, drake, compatable salamander material. Host has learned passive skill ; Physical Reinforcement: passive ability which enhances physical abilities and stamina. The higher the lvl the stronger and faster the bearer will become. currently level 1. Able to lightly jog without breaking a sweat. Grows through use.

drake materials used to reinforce scales and claws. Salamander materials used to improve digestion of insects.... system informs host that it had no choice in this matter as the salamander didn't have any sufficient skills or abilities besides this./

I kept eating but didn't get any more skills. I felt myself get a little heavier considering I was given a metal plate with meat that matched half my size. After I was finished I felt my body at work. My bulging stomache warmed and the materials began to be put into place. My scales got a little more luster to them and became a little thicker. My muscles started to become thicker. I felt like a whole new being. I looked at the treadmill and thought maybe I'll give it a try again. I started to go towards it.

Sam quickly reached down and picked me up. " Oof! If I didn't know better I would say you got heavier." She walked toward a bunch of wood beams that were hung horizontally. " Sorry buddy but we need to work on your jumping power. We've built up a little speed but we need to give you more of an advantage. I want you to start on the lower beams and jump your way to the higher ones. we'llbe doing this for a while." I looked at her with the biggest eyes I could muster. I only made myself look foolish. She just looked at me and laughed. " You have no say. I can't go to school hauling around a Fat Salamander now can I?"

So for the next 2 weeks this is what I've been doing. Constantly butting heads with Bryant and his boar. Then doing this trading. Hopping up onto the higher posts. When I first tried, I fell. Luckily the sand broke my fall. After a while I figure out if I used my middle and back legs to jump I would go farther. This helped more than I thought. My middle legs are no longer useless! And so I worked hard. Using the tread mill I got myself faster. Using the beams I got stronger. I quickly grew to a little over a foot in length which makes me a little sad to be this small. But my legs have become thicker and stronger.

That afternoon we returned. I went and laid on my sand bed that Sam had made for me. It has a water dish in it and is actually more comfortable than it sounds. I can't burn the house down because the bed is next to the fire place and away from anything burnable. I've actually gotten used to this style of living over the past couple weeks. It was then that Sam spoke up. " That dumb Bryant has given us a letter of challenge that father signed. He left a note stating he wants to see what's better. A stupid Salamander or his magnificent boar!" I raised my head and huffed. " His words not mine" she said.She sighed.

"Well... you've been after that Boar since you saw it. Shall we see if you can handle it?" she said with a mischievous glint to her eye. I breathed fire into the hearth to make it hotter and nodded. ( Show time)
