C14 Chapter 14

Wait a minute “if I run just thinking about the feeling of exhaustion and healing myself involuntary wouldn’t that just make it easy to run and difficult to feel exhaustion? you mean I have to expend myself so much as to feel unbearable exhaustion to actually feel exhaustion and even surpass that. It’s too complicated to think I would just be exhausting myself cause my healing ability is too strong and the thing is that it is totally a cheat ability and I feel god’s cheap toy because of it. But since it was given to me why not use it.”

System argued “why do you think so much instead of doing you know that you have wasted 30 seconds just wondering and came to a conclusion that you have to give it your all”

Michael agreed and said “true and I don’t want to keep seeing this guy's ass all the time he surpasses me while running”

The ground was much wider than the ground in Olympics cause a normal speed ability user can travel 100 meters in 1 second so that is why the diameter of the ground was 509 meters making the 1st lane as long as a mile

Michael tried his hardest to exhaust himself by running the thing was embarrassing to watch because he started to cry while running and the bad part was no one could tell if it was tears or sweat.

the system replied to him " at this speed it would take you 10 years to beat him the speed ability user. haven’t you eaten anything? remember the pain of being torn apart by Julia, it was greater than this wasn’t it? now why are you crying by only going beyond your limit? why do you want to get stronger? Is it because you want a good-looking girlfriend? If your desire is such a trivial thing you will not be able to do anything if you don’t have a strong enough reason to do it? what if there is no reason to do it are you going to keep quitting and just laze around and die? What if there is no reason to all of this do you think not doing anything is better? Now I think you were not as tough as god thought you would be."

Michael after hearing this felt no anger but disgust towards something, he felt no disgust towards a person or God, he blamed no one not even himself. He lost the reason to do anything at that moment because he could not think of anything that would push him!

" is it my family? is it love? Do I even love myself? who do I love? I feel something that is what I defined it as love, fuck love. my primary reason to run is to run is to actually run. He could actually feel what is it means to run."

From then on Michael only said one thing to himself run and to the system’s surprise Michael started to progress at visible rate.

In just few minutes he could run 100 meters in 3 seconds and after 20 minutes he could run 100 meters in just 2 seconds.

The surrounding people were astounded and could not believe what was happening

This ground was for amateurs to run so nobody above level 1 would use it. System was delighted and said “to think he would awaken his innate ability just by thinking stupidly even people like him could survive, I guess. God isn’t he just like the thing you created for the first time and because you don’t have the heart to destroy your creation you want to let him do it.”

The level 1 ability user was frustrated because it took him more time to surpass Michael every time. And Michael realized that only 20 minutes were left till he could finish his workout the level 1 ability user had already drained his ability and stopped running and sat beside a tree to relax observed Michael and was confused because Michael's speed was increasing at the rate of seconds and now, he started to doubt whether Michael was pretending to be a pig. After 10 minutes the speed ability user realized Michael was already able to complete the 1-mile-long track in just 20 seconds which made the level one speed ability user could not agree, because his ego couldn’t stand it.

He shouted "hey wolf in sheep's clothing I don’t believe you are faster than me! keep watching my ass while running"

since Michael could do nothing and run patiently until his speed could surpass the level 1 user, he reminded himself just a bit more and I can beat him, just a bit more!

System notification sounded 1 minute until mission failure penalty 'get pounded by giant hammer'

Michael said "wtf?"

Even Michael knew he was reaching his current limit, but he had to do it because he knew the pain of being crushed. So while running he tried to visualize the best style to run and came to a conclusion that using long strides was not the only answer but he had to surpass his speed every stride to be faster and as soon as he implemented this principle his body was bending as though he was a rocket his head was as low and reached half his height and now he was not waiting for his legs to touch ground he pierced the ground and used every bit of ground to increase his speed and to his surprise Michael's speed was now not just 100 meters per second it was 100 meters per 0.5 seconds, it doubled with just 1 technique change.
