After Breaking Up, I Married the General-Chapter 98 - 97: Exercising to raise His Physique Level

Chapter 98: Chapter 97: Exercising to raise His Physique Level

After visiting the medical center, Ryzel went back to his laboratory and continued reading the research results of Mr. Hanes’ experiments on cleansing potions.

It seems that just like other researchers the results weren’t ideal. It was clearly shown that Mr. Hanes used different materials and even used different dosages, but the result stayed the same.

If the results of his mother’s experiments were also the same, then he could proceed with his idea first before focusing on making a cleansing potion.

When reading countless research results by different research he noticed that some herbs would always have the same function.

When he researched them further when he was still at the academy all the herbs have a calming effect.

Even the research of Mr. Hanes, which also uses different materials, has such herbs in them.

What he wanted to do was to combine some of them to make a strong stabilizing potion that could effectively calm the raging pollutants in a sentinel’s mind especially when they are nearly having their mania or already in their manic phase.

The current stabilizing potions aren’t effective in calming a sentinel that was already having a mania because of how violent the pollutants are at that time.

Just like the case of the mental seas of Layton Lewis and Mervin, a stabilizing potion is no longer effective for them because of how violent the pollutants are raging in their mental seas.

In the academy he tried making such a stabilizing potion but then he found out that even if each of the herbs have strong calming effect they can’t even fuse together.

He also found out that if you mix some of them together what came out was something poisonous.

So, while he was doing other research, he needed to submit for his grades he was also studying different herbs that have calming effects in the cleansing potions of different researchers.

With the addition of the research result from Mr. Hanes he now has at least 70 types of herbs that have such effects.

He still needed to wait for the research results of his mother to see which herbs she used. With the addition of his mother’s research result he could check more herbs.

Afterwards he could start experimenting which herbs are the most compatible with each other.

Ryzel already experimented with some herbs when he was still in the academy, so he already has a list of some of their compatibilities.

He also experimented with a lot of binding herbs that could strongly hold the potions effect together.

He has a lot of lists already, but he hasn’t tried using more expensive herbs with binding effects.

He also needs to try more herbs that have stronger strengthening effects.

If he wanted to maximize the calming effects of all the herbs, he also needed to have herbs that can strengthen their effects.

Especially the herb sent by Mervin, gold braids actually have a very strong biding and strengthening effect.

Gold braids also have a strong adaptability and don’t reject other herb properties.

So, if his research was successful, he wanted to try using gold braids to make the potion he will make more powerful.

Ryzel made a schedule for the remaining days of the month on what he would be experimenting on.

As for the actual research about the cleansing potion he would still be studying about it, but he would be prioritizing his research about a stronger stabilizing potion.

After writing up his schedule he planned to make some more stabilizing potions but then Layton Lewis already knocked on the door.

"Ryzel," Layton Lewis briefly called his name before opening the door.

When Ryzel looked at the time it was already time to go home.

"Ok I know, just wait a bit," Ryzel said, without even waiting for Layton Lewis to say anything.

It is obvious that Layton Lewis came to him because it was already time to go home.

So, after cleaning up and storing all the herbs and potions he used and made, he went home with Layton Lewis.

The next day, Ryzel guided Lieutenant General Lan, one of the ninth army Lieutenant generals that participated in the battle a while ago at the very start.

His mental sea wasn’t as serious as that of Mervin’s mental sea, but the pollutants were extremely active. It shows that they still haven’t calmed down from the stimulation of the battle that he had participated in.

He also became more careful when dealing with Lieutenant General Lan’s mental sea as he was still in high alert.

Ryzel could feel the resistance growing stronger when he just let his mental power move a little bit faster.

And maybe because they haven’t known each other yet, Lieutenant General Lan has a stronger resistance towards him compared to Mervin.

After guiding Lieutenant General Lan, he still has a lot more mental power left so he made more potions before conducting his research on the herbs that he had to use.

One and a half hours before going home, Layton Lewis came to him, and they both went to Layton Lewis’ training room.

"Starting today, you are going to do a set of exercises to raise your physique.

Today, we are only going to do some basic exercises after you get used to it, we are going to increase the amount and difficulty of your exercises until you can at least achieve Level D so that you could use the mecha you wanted to use," Layton Lewis explained.

"So, what do I need to do first?"

"You need to warm up first, afterwards you need to run around the training room."

Within just 20 minutes Ryzel already felt very tired.

"Can I stop now? What about I continue doing it tomorrow?"

"No, you need to finish until I tell you to stop. You can definitely do it," Layton Lewis encouraged.

After just five minutes, Ryzel said again, "What time is it already? I think I already ran for an hour?" Cn I stop already."

"You only run for 15 minutes," Layton Lewis said. After looking at Ryzel who was running out of energy he sighed and said, "Okay you can have a ten-minute break. Afterwards you need to continue running."

"Oh, I can’t do it anymore," Ryzel as soon as he heard what Layton Lewis said and stopped running and sat on the floor.

"Ryzel, you can’t just sit down immediately. Come on, walk around a little more," Layton Lewis said and guided him to walk around the training room.

With just a few minutes of running he was already very tired.

Ryzel can’t imagine himself running or doing other exercises for an hour.

So, he asked, "Layton, are you sure the plan you came up with is appropriate for me?"

"Yes of course, the plan was tailored for you. I already accessed how strong you are so you can definitely do what I’ve written in the plan. You just need to persevere, you still wanted to ride your mecha right?"

"OK, I know," Ryzel said dejectedly.

Ryzel really wanted to improve his physique so persevered but as soon as the time came, he felt as if his body wasn’t his anymore.

He couldn’t even walk so Layton Lewis carried him back home. He could only feel himself again after getting out of the healing cabin.

For the following month Ryzel has been doing almost the same thing every day.

Every morning as soon as he arrived at the military headquarters, he would guide Layton Lewis’ subordinates first.

If the one, he was guiding doesn’t take too much of his mental power he would ask Layton Lewis to call another sentinel to guide.

So, within a month he guided a lot of Layton Lewis’s subordinates.

After guiding Layton Lewis’ subordinates, he would stay in his laboratory doing potions and testing different kinds of herbs.

Of course, he would still forget to pay attention to the time while he was doing something in his laboratory so Layton Lewis would always knock on his door to take him out of laboratory to eat with him.

His also persisted in his daily training with Layton Lewis unlike his first day of training at least after a month of training he could finally walk to where their aircraft is without being carried by Layton Lewis.

However, he still needed to enter the healing cabin to relieve him of his body pains.

Layton Lewis also know that he was very tired so he wouldn’t pester him at night on weekdays but when weekends came Layton Lewis still pestered him.

So, he still couldn’t escape being in the healing cabin even if it’s on weekends.

He routinely went to the military headquarters on weekdays and stayed at home during weekends.

Such days might be boring and tedious to others but for him it is not.

As long as he could still have time to make potions and do his research Ryzel doesn’t think such days are tedious.

And having such days unaffected by Zergs were days to be thankful for especially in the frontlines.
