After the battle on the first day, Sam was assigned to a squad that has lightning element users, and Arman who couldn't get as lucky was assigned to a different squad at random.

Then, their days went leisurely, every day they have to train for themselves and can ask for instructions from their superiors. There would be occasional duels to determine the rankings within the company and then there would be team battles between the squads to determine rankings between the squads in the company.

Apart from that, they do get some leisure time, in which Sam mostly read something or played his flute.

It has been a while since he got such leisure time, in which he doesn't have to brainstorm or plan to kill some people of superior strength.

He can just relax for a change and have a regular life. The only problem is that he has to suppress his cultivation at Level-5 forcefully, which is proving to be a far difficult challenge than he anticipated. At this rate, it is almost impossible for him to maintain this for one year.

Because he also noticed that this is the maximum body reformation and spiritual sea expansion he could obtain in the current condition and the spiritual sea is impossible to make denser and the body is impossible to temper anymore.

The only choice is to expand by breaking through the sixth-Level.

But he is unwilling to. It has been barely four to five months since his last breakthrough and he wanted to stay at this level for a year. Even half-time hasn't passed and he was being forced by his body to listen.

That is why Sam is so engrossed in flute these few days, he even made the flute with meteorite sand with the most exquisite of styles.

He has spent a lot of time on making it. For a change, he didn't use any form of inscriptions or formations on the flute. Even though he has used this in the past before coming to the Naga realm, that is only for training. This is the only time, he is using it for relief.

While Sam is having the most leisure since his rebirth, the other people who have also experienced rebirth on the same day as him, are not exactly having the greatest time.

Arman who adapted to the new environment eventually was also having not so bad, at least he has some problem blending into this structural lifestyle of the military.

Apart from that, he is all good.

But Arkiv who is far away from them is having the hardest time of his life.

When Arkiv arrived in this place, he was glad that he was able to get information from Sam. Because, just like Arman, he could breathe properly and his lungs almost felt like they would burst open.

His whole respiratory system was hurting. Even his eyes are getting affected by miasma in the air.

After some struggle, while sprawling on the ground, he was finally able to take out the breathing device and sat down meditating.

He didn't even dare to open his eyes immediately as he feared they would sting.

He thanked Sam several times in his heart, but before he knew it, some people already observed some sort of anomaly in this place due to the energy released during the burst of pain.

From Arkiv's perspective, they looked like humans, but they have red skin and scales all over. He doesn't if they are Nagas or not, but he knew that he shouldn't be here.

So, he started running from that place like crazy. Luckily he didn't meet someone who is so much stronger than himself like Sam, whose opponent could stop him with a wave of the hand.

After that, Arkiv was on the chase constantly. He realized the breathing device couldn't provide endless oxygen for him, after all, it is not a gas mask that will filter the air, and it is a mask mostly used for underwater purposes.

So, he realized that he can only slowly adapt to the environment. He could see that his skin is also turning a faint green color due to the surroundings.

With that point in mind, Arkiv started taking breaks and trying his best to breathe normally without the mask. He felt extreme pain in the initial stages, but he learned to control the pain through his spiritual energy and slowly started to adapt.

Almost three months later, he is barely able to breathe without a mask, but he was still stuck in the woods. To his dismay, even the food has become a problem.

Even though he wouldn't get hungry that easily, this is not the normal environment, he is using too much energy through his body to avoid the miasma affecting him.

In this aspect, he is far less capable than Arman who was able to force his body to adapt to the surroundings in just a few hours, even though his breathing was a problem initially, he was able to use his body normally.

Arkiv didn't have enough supplies with him regarding the energy intake, he was so confident about getting his hands on the resources, but now only beasts in the forest are his source. He has a decent amount of pills on his hand, but it would be a problem if he doesn't store them for emergencies and instead used them just for energy intake.

So, he started hunting. There was no problem for him to hunt, but there are some other problems though, for example, which type of beast's meat is toxic? He doesn't know.

For that reason, he has suffered many times after eating toxic meat. Only a few beasts are able to gain immunity to the environment without too great of a mutation that would make even their meat toxic.

But Arkiv doesn't know how to identify those beasts, so all he could do is an experiment for a bit and every failed experiment has brought him many side-effects. The most frequent thing he has to endure is stomach pain and diarrhea.

After taking such meat, all he could do is puke his guts out and roll on the ground before trying his best to take a pill that could detoxify his body by emitting out every foreign particle. He became a patient all of a sudden.

One has to wonder, that Sam who can identify the beasts in this realm in a mere glance didn't dare to enter the realm without any food and even prepared a supply for one year and Arkiv is so confident that he would be able to obtain the food from surroundings.

After all, not even humans of this realm who are born here can take in the food of all the beasts, only Nagas gave the immunity to the most poisons and almost all kinds of beasts can be consumed by them. Even the meals given in the arena are made with specific meat.

Even if they want to eat some meat, they have to go through a special detox method.

Of course, Arkiv couldn't find out about that.

All he can do is endure and only after these three months did he finally found a suitable food source, there is a small rodent type species roaming around the area, which he felt like a good choice to eat and he turned out to be correct for the first time.

So, for a few days, he went left and right, high and low to hunt for this beast and collected a ton of meat in his spatial ring.

Only, then was he able to relax a bit.

Now that his breathing and eating are solved, there is another problem he doesn't know how to face, thankfully the thirst is not too big of a problem yet as he had some wine and juice on him, but it will soon be one.

Apart from that the main issue regarding his visit to his realm, he needs to find a place where he can stay and has sufficient information traffic that he should know about the appearance of the next Palace of inheritance.

All this while, Arkiv did find some humans and nagas here and there within this forest as they came for hunting and picking herbs.

But he didn't dare to meet them or follow them, because of his condition. On this day, though he decided that he should follow them back and see if he can reach a habitat.

So, Arkiv waited for a human group and after he found one, he sneakily followed them for three days, before reached the vicinities of a town.

He saw that there are humans, Nagas, and some people who seemed to be a blend between two of them walking in and out of the town.

There are no guards for the town gates anyone can freely come and go. After much thought, he took a deep breath and walked in as confidently as possible.

Only after entering the town successfully and checking inside an Inn did he relax. From what heard from the conversations all the way, he learned one thing, this town is a place where fugitives gather and are full of danger. But to him, this is a safe house.

Because here the race doesn't matter. Sam explicitly said not to trust those of Nagas and not to trust the humans that are living well off in a city, but if it is a fugitive town, he can eliminate these possibilities.
