He marveled at their craftsmanship and tested their weight, noting how surprisingly light they were. These boots were clearly chanted, promising hanced speed and agility. With these his dexterity would increase by 5, passing the threshold of 40 mark.
With a grin, Noah wasted no time in equipping the Wind Boots. The momt they touched his feet, a surge of wind ergy veloped him, causing his body to feel lighter and more flexible. The tiredness that had be weighing him down a momt ago melted away, replaced by a newfound vigor.
Noah wasted no time in testing out his new boots. He sprinted forward, his footsteps barely making a sound as he effortlessly glided across the forest floor. The wind whistled past his ears, his mind fully focused on the exhilaration of his newfound speed.
After playing with his new boots, Noah stopped satisfied.
''Let's go take a bath before eating and th I'll start grinding some exp.''
Noah's decision to take a bath before eating and focusing on grinding for experice points was a welcome break after his exhilarating run with the Wind Boots. As he walked in the direction of the lake, he could feel the gtle breeze carrying the sct of water and fresh vegetation towards him. The promise of a refreshing dip in the cool waters filled him with anticipation.
Arriving at the edge of the lake, Noah took a momt to appreciate the sere beauty of the natural setting. The water shimmered in the soft light of the setting sun, inviting him to immerse himself in its calming embrace. With a sse of tranquility washing over him, he quickly undressed and waded into the clear, cool water.
As Noah submerged himself, the water veloped him in a soothing embrace, washing away the sweat and fatigue of his advtures. He closed his eyes and let himself float, feeling weightless and free in the gtle currts.
''I love this feeling. I can never get tired of this.'' Noah mumbled, recalling the numerous training he did with his father in various vironmt. He gtly shook his head and continued to joy the momt.
The sound of the wind rustling through the trees and the distant calls of birds created a symphony of nature that sured him in peace.
After a relaxing soak in the lake, Noah emerged feeling rejuvated and ready to tackle his next challge. With a rewed sse of ergy and purpose, he made his way back to shore, his mind already focused on the upcoming grind for experice points.
The wind continued to whisper a him, a constant reminder of the power and beauty of the natural world that he now felt more connected to than ever before.
After the refreshing bath in the lake, Noah's stomach rumbled with hunger, reminding him that it was time for breakfast. He reached into his bag and pulled out the remaining sandwich he left from their survival ratio, he added a slice of the wild boar meat. The aroma of the sandwich filled the air, making his mouth water with anticipation.
Without hesitation, Noah devoured the sandwich, savoring every bite of the simple yet satisfying meal. The combination of flavors – the fresh bread, the savory fillings, and the hint of herbs and spices – was a delightful treat after his advtures in the forest and the rejuvating bath in the lake.
As he ate, Noah reflected on the evts of the day so far – the fight with Lilith, the rewards gott, the thrill of running with the Wind Boots, added the peaceful momts by the lake, and now the comforting satisfaction of a good breakfast. Each experice had added a layer of richness to his day, reminding him of the joys that could be found in the simplest of momts.
With his hunger satisfied and his ergy replished, Noah felt ready to tackle whatever challges lay ahead. As he cleaned up the remnants of his meal and prepared to continue his journey. He must start grinding for some experice points to increase his level. He had to keep pushing ahead, he may have a head start but if he doesn't continue working hard, the others would catch up and surpass him.
Well, in terms of level he believes he was ahead of the others, as for points he was well aware that Lilith had surpassed him by a large margin. Therefore he had to work hard.
One must know that every studt is awarded 5 points before the survival test, each day of survival will see an increase in point. Meaning, plus five points if you survive one day. Having survived the first day, Noah had now 0 points, his original 5pts plus the points (double points) earned by beating Aid.
0pts can be considered a lot only if there wasn't a abnormality known as Lilith. Currtly, she had 50pts, a differce of 30pts, it wouldn't be easy for Noah to catch up and surpass her.
