Chapter 391: Wrestling Arms (2/2) [Available for Free on Patreon!] |
Everyone looked toward the stairs when they heard footsteps.
Soon, Jay appeared and walked down calmly. Those standing near the stairs stepped aside as he made his way to the center of the common room.
Jay stopped beside Pompa and patted his back.
"Good job, Pompa. At this rate, you might comprehend Strength Energy even before reaching Tier-7."
Pompa's eyes lit up. He nodded eagerly. Praise from Jay felt completely different from hearing it from anyone else.
A daring glint appeared in Pompa's eyes as a thought crossed his mind. He hesitated for a moment before finally speaking.
"Boss… can I have an arm wrestling match with you?" he asked in a hopeful voice.
As soon as the words left his mouth, the room fell into complete silence for a moment. Everyone stared as if wondering whether Pompa had lost his mind.
After a brief moment of pin-drop silence, Jay answered casually.
Under the surprised and curious gazes of everyone, Jay and Pompa took their seats across from each other. Akor quickly dragged a fresh table between them.
Pompa stretched his arm slightly. His first Exclusive skill,║SELF-IMMOLATION║, was still on cooldown.
But that did not mean he was out of options. He still had his fourth Exclusive skill to rely on.

║VITAL ELEVATION║ ⧼Passive⧽
The Host's Strength and Endurance increase in proportion to their current Health. The higher the remaining Health, the greater the amplification.
⧼At 100% Health, the user gains the maximum boost of +100% Strength and Endurance.⧽
⧼This skill becomes temporarily inactive if any other stat-boosting skill is activated.⧽
╰── ⋅ ⋅ ── ✩ ── ⋅ ⋅ ──╯
It was a useful passive skill that increased Strength and Endurance based on his current Health. For someone like Pompa, whose Health regeneration speed was forty-five times his base value, any lost Health would recover quickly.
The only drawback was that it could not be used together with other stat-boosting skills.
Pompa activated the skill and also used his Pseudo-Strength Energy right from the start. He feared he might lose before he even had the chance to show what he could do, especially when facing the strongest Alpha Chosen.
Looking at Pompa, who was full of excitement and anticipation, Jay simply shook his head. He wondered how Pompa thought he even had a chance to win.
After all, anything Pompa could use, Jay could also do. In fact, Jay had already synchronised with the Sigil assigned to Pompa. That meant he could freely use Pseudo-Strength Energy as well.
But Jay didn't activate it nor did he even need to.
Pompa's body expanded from four feet to around six feet, matching Jay's height. He placed his arm on the table, gripping Jay's hand and prepared to begin.
This time, instead of Vral, Akor stepped forward to give the signal.
"Start!"

IMPORTANT AUTHOR NOTICE:
Hey Folks, sorry for the inconvenience. I wanted to give a small update regarding Volume 4 and future chapter releases.
To be honest, because of piracy concerns, I considered not releasing the remaining chapters of Volume 4 publicly anymore. But at the same time, I don't want the current readers who have been supporting and following the story consistently to miss out either.
So from Chapter 401 onwards, I'll continue doing weekly releases here, but only around the first one-fourth of each chapter will be posted publicly.
To read the full chapter, you can simply join my Patreon's free tier. The complete chapters will be available there, and it doesn't cost anything to access them.
You can give it a try if you'd like. And honestly, more people joining the Patreon, even through the free tier, would really encourage and support me to keep going consistently.
Thank you for all the support so far. I truly appreciate everyone who's been reading the journey until now.
