Chapter 006 - A way to stop?

Cyan tried searching for more hidden features of Willy, he even tried by asking directly but it seems that was cheating ergo it was not allowed as Willy made his common remainder.

[Willy]: “Cyan is advised to return training as soon as possible”

Wasting more time of his buff wasn’t a good an idea either, so far it has been one and a half hours since Cyan entered the [Rest Area], so he only has two and half hours remaining to keep enjoying of the buff area, and even though just being standing also did wonders for his body the best way to take advantage of this buff was actually to keep training his body to his limits.

However, Cyan efforts were not in vain as he found out something interesting that Willy could do and that could be very helpful in the future.

[Cyan]: “Willy can you also create a link with my inventory?”

[Willy]: “Affirmative but if only to see its contents, accessing a Player inventory to take out or putting items in, it is not possible for the AR series 2”

[Cyan]: “So you can see it but not touch it then?”

[Willy]: “That is correct, do you wish to proceed?”

[Cyan]: “Yeah I think it would be helpful in the future with all those reminders of yours”

[Willy]: “Inventory Linked…Completed”

It seems this wasn’t a hidden feature or maybe it was already part of the feature [Coach] because Cyan didn’t receive any new notification to his phone, even though getting more Credits would have been good for him Cyan could not be more happy of just having Willy with him helping him out.

Cyan went back to his training but this time doing it in a series of 10 pushes while Willy was the one that handled all the counting and everything else.

[Willy]: “98, 99, 100…”

[Willy]: “[Start your training] [2] 100/100, Cleared”

[Willy]: “[Start your training] [3] 0/200, Unlocked”

[Willy]: “1, 2, 3…”

The [Rest Area] was doing its wonders for Cyan, trying to do so many pushes in one day would have been impossible in the past but now he could feel that after every push his body was being restored and healed by the buffs allowing him to keep going.

Truthfully doing exercises in the [Rest Area] was like cheating, after all this was an area designed for recovering, improving and healing a Player’s body but he entered in the area already in good condition even though he would get the benefices of improving his body, recovering and healing were pretty much being wasted on him, but when he started doing exercises as per recommendation of his future self, to train like if his life deepened on it, now he was taking advantage of those buffs thanks to that, and thanks to his trusty partner Willy that was doing a great job of guiding him due his feature [Coach] being unlocked he could shut off his brain and let Willy do his thing.

In short, Cyan was now utilizing the [Rest Area] buffs to the fullest for the current him.

[Willy]: “198, 199, 200”

[Willy]: “[Start your training] [3] 200/200, Cleared”

[Willy]: “[Start your training] [4] 0/300, Unlocked”

[Willy]: “1, 2, 3…”

Even though Cyan had been doing exercises on the ground with his School Uniform all of his clothes were neat and clean and also he was also free of sweat, because his body temperature was being regulated by the [Rest Area] that it has to be in full control of his body metabolism system since he entered it, meaning he would not overheat no matter how much he moved around because his body heat was being reverted back into energy and put back to use again by the muscles, allowing a near perfect conversion from energy to motion, now neither fatigue nor heat would prevent him from keep doing pushes on the ground and even though he was just moving his in a repetitive motion all of his muscles were being put to use due some other hidden feature that was inside Cyan body that he hasn't been made aware of yet.

In the end the fact was that the [Rest Area] was an amazing area for training your body, being in the fourth floor and with a free entrance most Players laze around inside it for 4 hours and then left it without being made aware that you could actually increment your stay duration by doing a Quest inside it.

Even when Cyan gave it all of his being to do each series after ~1 minute of resting he would be back to a peak condition and again ready for doing more series, not to mention that the pauses he would do become even shorter later on after Cyan adjusted his body to a more comfortable position as the awkwardness of doing pushes on the ground disappeared completely while doing the Quest.

Cyan took notice that no other Player was taking full advantage of this godly area and they were just lazing around, taking a nap or playing cards, telling jokes or doing things a couple would do on a date, this bothered him a little because those people weren’t showing any hint of worry about being kidnaped from their homes without any explanation and they were treating this like a small vacation hotel or something like that, however, Willy didn’t let his mind waver even for a second as he pressed him to continue training without thinking about anything else.

When Willy entered his serious [Coach] mode Cyan felt very sorry for making fun of Willy height at the beginning, because this little mean robot was now unleashing his vengeance upon him making him work like a machine nonstop, always on time and always efficient, Willy would take no complains coming from his mouth, in the end Cyan give up complaining any more and followed Willy orders in his computer like voice, when to take a rest and when to continue or when to take the energy drink or the energy food, all up to Willy, because Willy in [Coach] mode was that amazing when training Cyan up.

Very soon Cyan felt that his mind was not in control of his body anymore as he forgot about time or fatigue, and even though the [Rest Area] was not designed to remove the sense of pain because pain was a real necessity for a Player to know when to stop doing something, in Cyan mind the sense of pain was also cut off of his brain while he felt like if he was inside a dream and someone else had taken control over his body and his mind was just floating like in space making him forget about everything else even his own self.

Willy is an amazing robot but in fact he was just a child that was created just a few hours ago and which knowledge came from [Midas] database itself with no knowledge to call his own, at its core its only purpose was to guide and help humans to start training and then to keep them training until they reached their maximum potential, and for that to happen he needs first to break the body of a Cyan into bits then remold it as a whole and then do that over and over again until he has reached the thing he wants to achieve, and like a machine he is Willy would keep working towards his goal and without a pause to complete its core program, however humans… are not machines and their maximum potentials was actually an unknown variable, meaning…

It has no end.

[Willy]: “[Start your training] [END] 5500/5500, Quest Completed”

[Willy]: “No new Quest detected Cyan can rest until next Quest starts or you can enter free training mode, do you wish to proceed?”

When to rest, when to move or even when to think, Willy told Cyan the best way to optimize his time, but he never told Cyan when to stop, at least not until the Quest was cleared and he entered in standby mode until his next order was issued.

During this time Cyan phone had vibrated a few times but he didn’t take notice of this because his mind was actually in autopilot, even while Willy prompted him to drink the [Energy Drink] or eat the [Energy Food], one after the other, and it wasn’t after 5 empty bottles and 5 empty dishes later and the fact that Cyan had finally completed the quest that adds up to at least 5 days’ worth of training in just a few hours, was that at this moment that Cyan mind has come back to his senses.

Feeling like he was in a dream Cyan wake up could only be described in one word painful…, he was made ignorant of this fact as he couldn’t feel a thing so far, and even though there was nothing to prove it, he probably has sweated more than all of his life combined in the short ten hours that he took to finish the Quest, it could be a blessing or a curse that his initial 4 hours in this round were extended because he was doing a Quest, whatever it was the case his body was now full of unbearable pain.

Cyan plumed to the ground after doing one last push to end the Quest, the buff of the area had ended together with the feeling that he could still go on forever, as he was never made aware that his sense of pain was cut off from his mind until now.

Now that his mind has returned back to his senses he could start to feel pain again, this only made him faint on the spot, but not before feeling that all the muscles in his body started to contort and scream in an of a painful symphony from top to bottom.

Even though he was doing just simple pushes against the floor all of his body felt an equal amount and grade of pain as the orchestra played its tune and while it played he was being thrown into a blender together with a sack of salt as his partner, this grade of pain was something he had never felt before as if all the burden he had put through his body for ten hours came rushing back to his brain in just a single second, and the fact was that he had fainted after just a few seconds of agonizing pain could only be called good news for him because it did not give him any chance to scream his lungs out.

Willy took notice that Cyan had fainted so he ran an analysis that shown Cyan was not in any danger and he only needs to take a rest known as sleep for at least 5 to 6 hours after that his body will recover, however during this time Cyan could not continue with his training which it was a shame in Willy mind. After carrying Cyan to his own room and letting him sleep in a soft bed Willy entered in sleep mode himself but not before settings a few reminders on his own to wake up Cyan in 6 hours, together with other things he had to remind Cyan of.

Cyan slept like a baby for 6 hours with his mind shut down blocking any pain signal coming from his body until his body healed itself thanks to human body amazing regeneration capabilities.

However, Cyan sleep was disturbed because of Willy timely remainders.

[Willy]: “Reminders: Cyan body has recovered to peak condition, Cyan is advice to intake food in the [Food Area] to replenish all the resources a human body needs to keep up with his training, after that Cyan is advice to keep training in the [Rest Area], Cyan is advice to check his unread messages… Cyan is advice…”

Cyan opened his eyes and listened to those reminders however his eyes were dead and unfocused and his face was frozen and without any expression, even while Willy keep saying his reminders Cyan didn’t answer back at all.

[Willy]: “Cyan is advised to returning training as soon as possible”

Willy tried to prompt Cyan to stand up however Cyan was still was unmoving while his eyes didn’t reflect any light what so ever, the pain he felt before fainting should be gone and his body healed back to its peak however after he opened his eyes and tried to move his hand he felt like he was trying to move a rusty gear that refused to budge no matter how hard he tried, but not only his hand could not be move, but all of his body refused to move, and even his brain refused to work properly it was like if he could still feel the pain that he shouldn’t be feeling.

It wasn’t long until Willy sensors detected something wrong.

[Willy]: “Warning: Abnormality Detected, Initializing Deep Scan…”

A bluish light line started to scan Cyan whole body and even when light passed throughout his eyes he didn’t show any reactions to it.
