"Ahhh…" A guttural cry escaped from Das's clenched teeth, muffled by the wood block firmly lodged between them. The moment the dark serum touched his internals, an intense and searing pain flared through his body.

The corrosive nature of the blood serum sent waves of agony rippling through his veins, an inferno of torment that seemed to consume him from the inside out.

*The serum's effects were amplified by its source—the Taurus family direct lineage.

As the liquid coursed through his bloodstream, its malevolent energy bore down with a relentless force. Every fibre of his being felt like it was under assault, muscles quivering and contracting as if engaged in a battle against an invisible adversary.

Bound to the vertical pole, Das's body was rendered immobile by the tightly wound ropes. He couldn't escape the onslaught of pain; he could only endure it. The constriction of the ropes, meant to keep him steady, became an added layer of torment as they seemed to press against his very nerves.

Time seemed to warp in the haze of agony, each moment feeling like an eternity. His vision blurred as tears pooled at the corners of his eyes, and his gasps were muffled by the block between his teeth. Through the pain, Das's mind clung to the knowledge that this trial was a step towards something greater, a threshold to be crossed.

As the minutes crawled by, the pain that gripped Das intensified incrementally. Each passing moment felt like a new layer of torment added to the last, a relentless crescendo of suffering that he had never experienced before. The anguished cries that tore from his throat echoed across the training grounds, drawing the attention of palace ladies, workers and bystanders alike.

The students of Ruth, Stella, Ruth, Sana, Princess Serena and family members of Abdullah family gather at the edges of the training ground and began watching Das's ordeal unfolded before their own eyes. The atmosphere became thick with tension, a palpable mixture of concern and fascination.

The palace workers exchanged worried glances, unsure of what was transpiring but unable to tear their gazes away.@@novelbin@@

Within Das's body, the spirits that had been dormant were stirred to life by the surge of pain and energy. The once-slumbering entities awakened, their presence becoming vivid and powerful. An intense red energy and a cosmic blue aura manifested around him, swirling and intertwining like flames dancing in a fervent blaze.

The display of energy was both awe-inspiring and alarming, a display of power that seemed to transcend the realm of the ordinary. The onlookers were captivated, their eyes fixed on the mesmerising spectacle that unfolded before them. Some whispered in hushed tones, while others exchanged amazed glances.

Recognising the urgency of the situation, the one-eyed old man sprang into action. He issued quick and sharp orders to his students, urging them to douse Das's body with water. The students rushed to obey, grabbing buckets of water and splashing it over Das's body, hoping to counteract the effects of the potent blood serum.

Even the old man was taken aback by the unexpected potency of the serum from the Taurus family direct lineage. The unleashed energy was far beyond what he had anticipated, and it posed a risk not only to Das but to those around him as well. The water seemed to have a cooling effect, gradually dampening the intensity of the energy emanating from Das's body.

As the water soaked through his clothes and trickled down his skin, Das's agonised cries began to subside. The swirling energies around him gradually diminished, the red and blue hues blending into a soft and ethereal mist. Breathing heavily, Das slumped against the pole, his body exhausted from the ordeal.

The onlookers watched in a mix of relief and amazement as the display of energy faded, leaving behind a sense of wonder and curiosity. The training grounds that had been filled with cries of pain were now hushed, the air heavy with a charged energy. The one-eyed old man approached Das cautiously, his eye studying Das's condition to ensure that the worst was over.

Princess Serena immediately ordered her servants to send everyone away as she is worried that people might recognise the presence of hidden family spirits inside Das body. But thankfully, there is no big figures here who had knowledge about hidden families and their secret family heirlooms.

Even though Ruth know about hidden families, she never saw any heirlooms and their corresponding Spirit animals.

In the aftermath of the intense experience, Das's body bore the marks of the ordeal he had endured. But within the fatigue and pain, he felt a subtle shift—a deeper connection to the energies within him, a glimpse of the power that lay waiting to be harnessed.

As the sun continued its ascent in the sky, the training grounds stood as a witness to the trials and transformations that unfolded on that eventful day.

After dismissing the crowd and ensuring privacy, the one-eyed old man swiftly handed Das a few energy pills. With a knowing look, he instructed Das to consume them before embarking on his next challenge.

The energy pills quickly took effect, infusing Das's body with a surge of vitality and stamina. He could feel the energy coursing through his veins, invigorating his tired muscles and sharpening his focus. With a deep breath, he steeled himself for the task ahead.

Following the old man's guidance, Das positioned himself at the centre of the training ground. As Das began to run, he felt an immediate difference. It was as though every step he took resonated with a newfound strength and speed.

The energy surged within him, propelling him forward with an intensity that he had never experienced before. The training ground blurred around him as he picked up speed, his surroundings becoming a mere backdrop to his focused determination.

With each passing moment, Das's pace increased exponentially. His movements became a blur as he covered the ground in astonishingly swift strides. The wind whipped against his face, and his heart pounded in rhythm with his rapid footsteps. The sensation of speed, power, and exhilaration intertwined, creating an intoxicating mixture that fuelled his drive to push harder.

The Taurus family serum worked its magic rapidly and effectively, pushing Das beyond his previous limits. His body responded to the surge of energy, adapting and evolving to the new level of strength he was experiencing. The agility he displayed was remarkable, as if he had unlocked a hidden potential that had always resided within him.

As he continued to run, Das marvelled at the transformation taking place within him. The serum's effects were astonishing, enhancing not only his physical abilities but also his mental acuity. He felt attuned to every motion, every sensation, as though he had become one with the energy that propelled him forward.

With a final burst of speed, Das brought himself to a gradual stop. He stood in the centre of the training ground, his chest heaving as he caught his breath. Sweat glistened on his forehead, a testament to the exertion he had undergone. Yet, despite the physical strain, his eyes sparkled with a newfound fire—an awareness of the potential he now possessed.

The old man approached Das with a nod of approval, acknowledging the remarkable progress he had witnessed. "You've tapped into a wellspring of power within you," he said, his voice carrying a mix of admiration and guidance. "Remember, this is only the beginning. Your journey to master these abilities has just started."

Usually, these changes will be temporary and gradually disappear as the time passes. But in your case it might be different. I will ask my family to gather these resources from time to time. Si, you just have to committed to bear the pain to enjoy these benefits. The old man said before gesturing his students to prepare the weapon of today's training.

Das's gaze met the old man's, gratitude and determination shining in his eyes. The trials he had undergone, the pain and challenges, had led him to this moment of empowerment.

As the sun continued its ascent, casting a warm glow over the training ground, Das stood at the precipice of his transformation. The Taurus family serum had ignited a spark within him, setting him on a path of discovery and growth. With each step he took, he was one step closer to unlocking the full extent of his potential and becoming the formidable force he was destined to be.

Before Das, a row of spears crafted from various materials stood in an orderly formation. Each spear differed in length and weight, presenting a diverse array of training opportunities. The anticipation of mastering these weapons fuelled Das's determination.

With a knowing nod, he selected a wooden spear from the row—a seemingly simple choice that held the potential for valuable lessons. The spear's blunt end was a clear indication that today's training focused not on offence, but on control, balance, and technique.

As the old man extended the wooden spear to Das, he offered a few words of guidance. "Today, you will learn the essence of wielding a spear. The mastery of this weapon is not solely in its sharpness or destructive power, but in your ability to manipulate it with precision and finesse."

Das accepted the wooden spear with a respectful nod, understanding the significance of the lesson ahead. He could feel the weight of the spear in his hand, its balance a testament to the craftsmanship that had gone into its creation. The wood felt cool against his palm, its texture familiar yet imbued with a new purpose.

The old man's instructions were clear and concise as he guided Das through the fundamental stances and movements associated with spear combat. He emphasised the importance of footwork, the positioning of hands, and the fluidity of motion. With each demonstration, the old man highlighted the synergy between Das's body and the spear, urging him to channel his energy into each precise action.

As the training progressed, Das found himself immersed in the rhythm of the spear's movements. He executed thrusts, sweeps, and parries with a renewed sense of awareness. The wooden spear became an extension of his body, responding to his intent as he honed his control over it. His focus shifted from the blunt end of the weapon to the connection between his body, his energy, and the wooden shaft.

The hours passed swiftly, marked by the sound of wooden spear meeting the air and the old man's occasional words of encouragement and correction. Das's muscles responded to the demands of the training, his movements becoming more fluid and precise with each repetition. The wooden spear became an instrument through which he expressed his newfound understanding of balance and coordination.

As the sun reached its zenith, Das's hands gripped the wooden spear with a newfound confidence. He stood before the old man, the weapon training ingrained in his muscle memory. The old man's gaze held a mixture of satisfaction and expectation, a testament to the progress Das had made within a single day.

"You've shown remarkable aptitude, young man" the old man remarked, his voice carrying a blend of admiration and pride. "Remember, the essence of mastering a weapon lies not only in its form, but in your connection to it. The path to true proficiency is paved with patience and dedication."

Das acknowledged the old man's wisdom with a nod, his eyes reflecting his determination to continue his journey of growth. The wooden spear he held represented more than a mere weapon—it symbolised his evolving skills, his unwavering commitment, and the potential that lay ahead.

As the sun descended in the sky, casting a warm, amber hue over the training grounds, Das's determination burned brighter than ever. With the fundamentals of spear combat firmly ingrained in his muscle memory, he was eager to explore the nuances of different spears and put his newfound skills to the test.

The row of spears before him beckoned like a collection of potential allies, each with its distinct characteristics and challenges. Das's eyes swept over the array, his curiosity piqued by the array of shapes, lengths, and materials. With a thoughtful nod, he selected a spear crafted from polished metal—a gleaming instrument that promised both finesse and power.

The one-eyed old man watched from a distance, his presence a steady anchor as Das approached his chosen opponent—a skilled student who eagerly accepted the challenge. The clashing of spears reverberated through the air as they engaged in a spirited exchange of thrusts, parries, and swift footwork.

Each movement was a testament to the hours of training and dedication Das had poured into mastering this art.

The metal spear responded to Das's intent with a satisfying resonance, its balanced weight translating his energy into every strike. With a focused gaze, he anticipated his opponent's moves and countered with precision, seamlessly transitioning between offence and defence. The dance of combat was a symphony of fluid motion and calculated strategy.

As the duel continued, the other students of the old man gathered around, their expressions a mix of admiration and excitement. The training ground buzzed with energy as they observed Das's adept handling of the spear—a testament to his rapid progression and the guidance of his mentor.

As the day transitioned into evening, Das continued to engage in friendly bouts with different students. Each new opponent brought a unique style and challenge, allowing him to refine his techniques further. The spears he wielded became an extension of his being, a conduit through which he expressed his strength, agility, and strategic acumen.
