My Cell Prison

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Compromise

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The time rolled back to one day ago.

The day before Han Dong went to the Knight Academy for registration.

Most of the relocation work from the Samay Civilian Area to the dormitory area was completed with the help of local security personnel.

Regarding furniture, his younger sister Nina, and their mother were responsible for selecting some from the large market in the civilian area, and once they paid, there would be staff delivering it to their home. That day, Han Dong didn’t have to worry about anything and could rest.

However, he had no intention of relaxing.

He chose to stay at the completely vacant old house in the civilian area for private studies.

First, he spent about five hours reading related books about Ghouls, gaining an in-depth understanding of this peculiar species. After that, he began training on how to use the “Ghoul Arm”.

Linking this new arm, not to mention becoming proficient, he at least needed to ensure smooth use.

The first thing that Han Dong realized was the ‘weight issue’.

This arm, taken from a mature Ghoul and installed on Nicholas, who barely reached 170cm tall and had a skinny body due to long-term malnutrition, was not coordinated at all.

Taking into account the length of the fingernails, this arm, when left hanging down, could touch the ground, its strong muscle tissue reaching almost the same width as the body…it was completely out of proportion.

“The weight of this arm is estimated to be around 20 to 30 kg, my body can’t withstand it… once it starts to swing, my body’s center of gravity will be thrown off balance and I won’t be able to fight.”

After exercising for less than ten minutes, Han Dong was already exhausted.

He was dripping with sweat and panting.

The special traits of the Ghoul Arm, which are “Huge Power, “Agile Movement” , “Fungal Trait” and “Certain Regernation” are limited to this arm alone.

Han Dong’s physical condition was still too weak.

“This won’t do. Nicholas’s body isn’t to be simply trained well…l must think of a solution.

I can’t explain the existence of “Possessed” Chen Li, so I can’t let Chen Li appear in front of others.

If I encountered danger on the road to registration, I would have to handle it myself… A short sword alone wouldn’t be enough, I have to master this arm and make it a part of my abilities.”

“Isn’t there a compromising solution…as to how to unleash the power of the “Ghoul Arm” , without the need to bear such weight.”

Han Dong stared at the gigantic arm.

The only thing he could do was to use the “Imitating” ability given to him by the Faceless Skull. Apart from being able to disguise his face, he could also disguise his arm as a common arm.

Is there a compromise method?

Han Dong spent four hours switching between the raw form and the disguise mode.

Slowly.

As the number of switches increased, they became more proficient. So much so that Han Dong gradually felt a strange sensation when switching between the two… he had to latch onto that sensation, then stop halfway through the switch.

Unknowingly, it was already dark.

The kerosene lamp in the room was removed during the relocation, so it was pitch black.

However, after a while, a faint green light began to appear in the room, scaring some passing neighbors into quickly retreating back into their houses.

The green light came from the “Graveyard Fungus” attribute within Han Dong’s right arm.

A number of green fluorescent-looking blood vessels covered his arm and even bulged out.

In addition, there were sharp claws about ten centimeters long at the front of the arm.

They were short and thin… but sharper.

In such a state, although the arm remained as per the normal human size, its weight did not change.

The green light that emanated from his arm illuminated Han Dong’s grim smile.

“Haha…success! This is the compromise method. The weight and size of the arm remain the same, but I can activate the ‘Graveyard Fungus’ and ‘claws’ attributes.

Although there is a significant decrease in power, I can control it freely.” Han Dong swung his right arm with ease.

Wherever his claws passed, there would be strong corrosive fungal spores left behind in the air.

After a full half-day, Han Dong finally managed to use the new arm freely…but his training didn’t end there.

He took out a few white candles from his bag and lit up the old house in the dark.

Miss Chen Li….”

With Han Dong’s call.

The candlelight flickered.

A red dress floated out.

The woman was standing with her head down in the darkest corner of the room.

Such a scene was indeed somewhat horrifying. Han Dong was almost terrified, breathing a little fast.

“Don’t… don’t scare me, alright.”

“…It wasn’t intentional.” Chen Li immediately tied up her hair with a rubber band, “It’s just a ‘habit’… this image makes me feel more comfortable.” “Habit? So scaring people is not what ghosts intend to do?”

This was the first time Han Dong had heard such an explanation.

Once Chen Li tied her hair into a ponytail, the horror disappeared instantly.

Maybe due to the’ Refining Evil Evolution’, Chen Li had also shed much of the rustic feel she brought from the mountain village.

The rich evil aura made her look colder, while also making her skin delicate and cold.

“What do you need me for?”

“Train with me…since you can’t appear in public at the moment, and there may be a series of tests or examinations on my way to the Knight Academy.

I have to have a certain amount of strength, otherwise, I won’t be able to raise my head in the academy, which will affect my subsequent development.” “You want me to train with you? I’m afraid…l might hurt you.”

When Chen Li’s eyes met with Han Dong, she would be slightly dodge. “It’s okay, just stop in time, right? A few superficial injuries don’t matter.” “Then let me try… full strength?”

“Try your full strength first. If I can’t keep up, we can slowly decrease it.” As soon as he finished his sentence.

Without giving Han Dong any time to react…a gust of wind brushed across his body, and the kitchen knife was already resting on his neck.

Chen Li was no longer the mild being possessed in the Fate Space.

After drinking the liquid in the Holy Grail and evolving… Chen Li’s temperament, amount of evil, and overall attributes have made significant progress.

You could say she’s far beyond human limits.

“Um….slow down a bit, please.”

In the end, when Chen Li lowered her power to 30 percent, she finally reached the training intensity that Han Dong needed.

Just like that…Han Dong did not return home to rest until late at night.

The time returned to now, Dark Moon Forest.

Thanks to this kind of intensive training.

Han Dong then chose to formulate a battle plan centered on himself, facing the ‘Scissors Suture Monster’ alone.

The pressure produced by the monster’s tongue swinging the scissors to attack was definitely not as intense as Miss Chen Li.

“The speed, the sense of fear and overall spirit are not comparable to Chen Li, in that case…”

Right before the Stitched Monster approached.

A beam of plague energy shot from the tip of the short blade.

It accurately entered the monster’s mouth and corroded the critical tongue…

the long tongue and scissors fell on the ground together.

Han Dong’s right arm was already transformed into an averagely sized one which he could control freely.

Green veins bulge from the surface of the skin, and the sharp claw was ready.

Whoosh!

Taking advantage of the moment when the stitched creature’s tongue was chopped off, Han Dong took the initiative to attack.

His claw cut into and vigorously tore open the body of the stitched creature.

A dark core was sticking to the stomach wall..
