The third day, Kane Family Estate.
Li Si lay on his bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
God knew how he had endured these past three days.
He had stood there and gotten a faceful of scalding fruit pie from a maid. When he tried to block it with magic, he ran into the one-in-ten-thousand accident of elemental collapse.
Well, that did it. He now had both internal and external injuries.
Even eating was no peaceful affair. One out of every three bites got stuck in his throat. Most absurdly, he could even choke on a sip of water. Li Si was beginning to wonder whether some part of him had mutated.
Fortunately, the bad luck that followed was relatively mild—things like stubbing his little toe while walking or getting lightly burned.
Still, to be safe, Li Si had not conducted any Arcane Research or physical training over the past three days. If anything went wrong at a time like this, it could truly be fatal. He did not want to turn himself into a cripple missing arms or legs.
These past few days, Li Si had simply meditated in bed. He had nothing else to do, and he had already informed Arsen. Cultivating and accumulating more experience points was always a good thing.
Li Si sprang up from his bed and, standing on the floor, cast a lingeringly fearful glance at the leg of the chair beside him.
It had taught Li Si that no matter how well-trained his body was, his little toe remained fragile.
"Right, I think there are still some system notifications I haven't checked."
Li Si summoned the system panel.
