Zick\'s heart started heating up, making him frown. The beating of the heart sped up a little, pumping the blood at a faster rate.

The pain slowly started decreasing along with a warm feeling beginning to travel through Zick\'s mana nerve. This warm energy was later absorbed by the mana nerve quickly.

This process went on for 10 minutes before disappearing. Zick had watched the whole process carefully, not missing a moment.

The result of this process surprised him immensely.

\'I became a mid-high rank knight...\' He tried feeling his black mana within the mana nerves.

They had a little darker glow and were not as transparent as before, its purity has without a doubt increased.

But his potential had only increased by a little, it hadn\'t reached the peak rank that Zick had expected.

The only reason his potential even increased by a little was because of his black heart, which gained a little more vitality than before. There were also some changes in the heart, for some reason it didn\'t increase the strength of the blood and instead only strengthened and increased the potential of the mana nerves.

This made Zick disappointed.

\'This means even if I increase my heart back to its peak state the chances of me getting any dragon innate ability is zero. It had already lost the ability to do such a thing.....\'

But still, the ability to turn the unorthodox method directly into his strength immediately was an amazing thing. He considered the pros and cons of this ability swiftly.

\'Using this ability I can increase my strength faster than I expected, but for that, I would be needing many precious potions or methods that could either increase my strength or potential....\' Zick didn\'t think that he could keep increasing his strength infinitely by using the same method.

To know this, he needed to experiment. He was planning to save some merit points for emergencies, but understanding the versatility of this ability was more important.

Zick immediately brought enough material to perform the unorthodox method three times.

The first time, his strength increased again along with a little potential.

The second time, his strength increased by a little, officially making Zick a peak high-rank knight.

But the third time, there were no changes at all.

\'This is the limit for this unorthodox method I guess. If I want to increase my strength further, I would need a stronger and more potent method.\'

Getting up from the floor, Zick first cleaned the blood using magic and felt his mana.

He had directly gone to the peak of the high rank in a day, surprisingly. Even his potential had increased to the peak rank.

\'I should be able to become a peak rank knight in three to four months.\' Zick estimated feeling a little happy.

But soon, his mood returned to solemnity.

Even if he could increase his strength this way, he would never be a match for the demon lord who was a demigod.

He doubted that he would even be able to rise to the grandmaster realm within the time the demonic race started attacking.

\'In the end, I will still have to somehow make the being who didn\'t participate in the war participate this time. I even need meat shields...Aeiron\'s location is unknown too.\'

In the novel, Aeiron was teleported to the Hevertec kingdom. Directly in front of one of his future harem members.

At that time, the harem member was being assassinated by some black figures. It was a cliche situation through and through so much that Zick had fallen headfirst into the table reading it.

For now, Zick had started laying out the groundwork to get the biological golem. First, he had to increase his rank within the organization, only by doing this could he have enough influence to spread the information about the lab and participate in the raid.

And along with that, Zick wanted to increase his strength now with his newfound ability.

With all this in his mind, he started thinking rapidly.

Standing in the room with a blank face for a minute, suddenly Zick\'s expression changed.

He found a place where he could fulfil all his needs, a meat shield, a method to increase strength and get achievement points in the organization.

"Hahaha....." Zick didn\'t think he would get such a perfect place to solve all his problems.

But before that-

\'I need to get to the mana crystal mine and make money to get Varine....\'

Zick started taking off his clothes and wearing the armor he brought from the city.

It was a blue leather armor with silver color steel plating in the shoulder guards and gauntlets. He also wore a white mask with it.

He still wore a hat making him look like a suspicious being no matter how one saw him. He didn\'t wear his crimson red earring, it was still within his space ring.

After changing, Zick looked at the earring within his space ring.

\'This should be at least a legendary rank item.....\' He could sell it to get the 1000 platinum coins but he didn\'t want to let go of such a treasure. So he chose the mana crystal mine.

He has placed this earring in his space ring, in case a master-level person appeared in front of him and tried to steal them from him.

While moving around, Zick could feel that his body had become lighter than before. Clenching his fist, he could feel that his strength increased to a certain degree too.

\'With mana harmonization and other techniques I know, fighting a peak rank knight shouldn\'t be a problem.\' Zick had been a little unwilling to go to the mountain region but now that worry vanished.

With his current strength, Zick was confident in fighting the monster there. Furthermore, this mountain region is known as a danger zone for its extremely cold weather so this had also originally disturbed him before.

Zick didn\'t bother buying any clothing to help against cold weather, it would hinder his movements, and the leather armor was more than enough for him.

Without wasting a second, Zick started heading toward the teleportation centre. Entering one of the rooms there, the receptionist activated the magic circle by putting a mana crystal on it.

****************

The Jeleat city western side, esteven inn.

Within a dark room, the magic circle drawn on the floor shined. With a flash, Zick\'s figure appears upon it with his eyes closed.

Opening his eyes, Zick was greeted with an ordinary-looking room. He checked himself once and started walking towards the door.

CLICK~

A hall appeared on the other side of the door, with a reception like usual. Without a word, Zick walked out of the inn, to the street and took out his compass. He started heading towards the south where the snowy Mountain range was located.

\'Ah, I left my horse back in the inn, where I met with Ovelon.\'

At that time, Zick had a lot of things in his head, fully forgetting about the horse.

\'A horse would not come in much use in the snowy region anyway.....Instead, I should use the snow wolf just like Aeiron used in the novel.\'

The snow wolf was a rare monster that can only be found in this snowy mountain region called Lectin mountain region. Lectin is also known as eternal snow in the language of this world.

Though the Lectic mountain region is a danger zone, many people traveled using it to reach the city beyond it quickly.

The person who runs this traveling facility of snow wolves was a merchant. He found the usefulness of the snow wolf and bought tons of monster-slaving collars to start a business here.

It took a while to find a safe root, and he also suffered some losses, but in the end, he benefited more than anyone.

Zick headed towards the Lectic mountain region quickly. He didn\'t need to buy the snow wolf from this merchant, he could just use his dragon fear and tame a wild one easily.

Snow wolves are mutated monsters with the strength reaching to the high rank, so it wasn\'t a problem for Zick to control them.

He didn\'t bother remembering the way to the inn With the teleportation circle. He was planning on going to the city on the other side of the mountain region, named Veiyer. He could locate the base of the Everlor organization using the seal on the back of his hand.

Circulating mana within him, Zick jumped upon the house beside him. Controlling his body perfectly, he landed upon it lightly and started heading towards his destination. There was not a single sound of his jumping, he controlled the sound using mana. Unless someone saw him it would be hard to notice his existence.

Few people in the street saw him, but Zick didn\'t care about it as he wore a mask.

Within five minutes, he reached the fortress of the city and performed a big jump, directly landing on the other side of it. He ignored the sound of the guards saying \'stop\' to him and ran at full speed.

Like this, another running spree took place here.
