Luca stared at the two Spiritual Power Recovery Pills. The temptation to just swallow one was stronger than ever, especially after he experienced the effects of the Stamina Pill.
But he knew it wouldn't be the same. Being feeble and weak wasn't the same as being barren. And he's already cheated his way out of that when he transmigrated into this body. He was lucky this body's meridians opened ever so slightly with the resident change.
Even now, he's been working on it by increasing his spiritual water dosage, but he wasn't sure about his tolerance for a whole-ass pill.
For some reason, Luca felt he would go into cardiac arrest if he attempted to lick one. So, he planned to start by ingesting the water first.
He stared intently at his cup, that had about a spoonful of water. One might assume he was overthinking things, but that was because they hadn't experienced the sensation of their bodies burning.
To think all he did was try to wade in the water.
Luca shivered at the memory. He felt like a cat deathly afraid of taking a bath.
And for a moment, he actually had that trauma when he tried taking a regular shower. Thankfully, the desire to be hygienic trumped his fear of liquids.
With prayers as his only crutch, Luca decided to swallow the rationed spiritual water.
"Here goes nothing," Luca muttered to himself.
*Cough! Cough!*
He may have been over-eager as he swallowed the entire thing hastily. Thankfully, he only got that choking bit when he swallowed too fast.
But considering how he drank it this time, he wanted to ensure he could circulate the energy first. By doing this, he would essentially be widening the passageways.
Though, in all honesty, Luca was probably doing this because, underneath his pain concerns, there was an even bigger worry.
The pills he had were recovery pills. That would assume he had something to recover. But what if his original spiritual powers didn't transmigrate with him?
See, this is what fruits should taste like! He thought as he continued to munch on his plump apple.
Hmm...What if he could do something related to that?
