Chapter 78: Tempered (4)
[Adilun's POV]
"Haaaah... Haaaaah"
Ragged breaths escaped from my lips involuntarily.
It had already been an hour since Physis and I started running in the training grounds. I could truly feel how rigorously the knights were being trained.
I felt tired, and my legs were starting to lose strength, but I didn't stop. Once I joined the subjugation party, I would face even harsher situations, and there might be instances where I needed to conserve mana.
If I relied too much on magic, I could easily find myself unable to cope with unexpected events. Although dragons were said to have unlimited control over mana, as a human with dragon blood running through my veins, I couldn't enjoy infinite mana.
It was true that I possessed an overwhelming amount of mana, but it wasn't infinite, so there would inevitably be moments when my mana ran out.
To prepare for such situations, I had to conserve mana without fail, and eventually, the time would come when I had to push my pitiful body to its limits.
There was still some time before the subjugation party was formed, so I had to build up my stamina until then... at the very least.
But in the end, my legs gave out.
"Adilun, are you alright?"
"Uh... yes."
