The Human Giant



Noticing Yoze looking through the weapon techniques manuals, River and Timothy awkwardly smiled knowing full well that there weren't any sword techniques in there.

After trying to collect more talents related to swords and sword arts, Yoze was able to get two of them and even was able to speed up his Armored Swordsman training even further. At the moment he was a few weeks away from reaching level 3 of the Armored Swordsman and being able to produce Armored Swordsman inner vigor.

Yoze was looking forward to this progress since it would be his third type of inner vigor. How many martial artists could claim to have the title of having three types of inner vigor? 

But he wasn't satisfied with only having three types of spiritual energy, Yoze wanted to have experience having many types of inner vigor. Inner Vigor was the first type of special form of energy that he had come in contact with and the one he had trained the most. 

Yoze could use his Big Golem inner vigor to make himself heavier and even allowed him to become ridiculously heavy. Being over 2 thousand pounds should have been impossible, never mind being 2000 pounds of pure muscle. 

With that much weight and with how much muscle mass Yoze had he could kill nearly first-rate martial artists with ease and even Blood Masters if he could manage to hit them. That was when he didn't use his martial arts skills to take his battle prowess to another level, once he started using his martial arts Yoze could handle Martial Grandmasters.

There was also Iron Skin inner vigor that floated inside his skin at all times giving his skin a permanent boost in defense. However, when he activated his Iron Skin inner vigor gained extra defense and made it difficult for even iron swords to cut him.

Just these two types of inner vigor were critically important assets to his strength, this went double from his Big Golem inner vigor. Since he had the chance to get more body cultivation methods Yoze decided to welcome all types of inner vigor.

He wasn't picky about what kinds of inner vigor he would train in so when he saw the body cultivation methods that were provided to him Yoze didn't flinch seeing that they didn't have crazy effects.

"The Boneless Man body cultivation method would allow me to move my body like I was a piece of string."

"Sinking Swamp body cultivation makes my body sticky that a single touch of my skin would be as harder to escape from than quicksand."

"And the Turtle Shell body cultivation method at its peak would allow me to make my back harder than a diamond. These two aren't too shabby, I'll take them." Yoze felt a bit better seeing that the City had given him another defensive body cultivation method instead of Iron Muscle.

"That's good that you are fine with these," River and Timothy breathed a sigh of relief seeing that he was satisfied with the books that the City had given him.

After taking a glance at the descriptions of the martial art techniques that he received and seeing that they weren't too outstanding, Yoze put them away to take a better look at them when he got home.

"Do you need help cutting up the Leopard demon?" Once Yoze packed away the books and money, he asked whether River and Timothy needed his help cutting the Leopard demon.

Even though what he got wasn't the best in the world or the best the City could provide Yoze was satisfied and wanted to head home as soon as possible to start training. With an additional 20,000 silver in his pocket, Yoze planned to buy a lot of crystals to speed up his and Tiki's immortal cultivation as well as his and Deryer's witchcraft.

"We would be grateful if you could help us." 

Even when dead, demons had tough defenses that couldn't be cut with normal weapons. If Yoze had brought his sword along with him to fight the Leopard demon it would have split itself in half before it could cut the Leopard demon's skin.

However, for others, this was a serious problem but for Yoze he could easily cut through their defenses. As long as he used his spiritual claws he could act as if he was a thousand-degree knife cutting through a marshmallow.

"We should get a few wagons to help carry the meat and bones." Realizing that there was no way for them to carry all the flesh and bones, Timothy ran back to town and grabbed giant bags made to specifically store meat along with five wagons.

With everything prepared Yoze began to dissect the Leopard demon and handed the meat and bones to River and Timothy to pack up. Once everything was stored in bags and on the five wagons, Yoze and Jewel took the smallest wagon that had 10 tons of demon meat.

"Timothy, River, do you want to travel together or are you staying here?" Yoze noticed that while Jewel got on the wagon to drive it back to the city, Timothy and River didn't seem to be preparing to leave.

"Since this cargo is so valuable the City wants to have other soldiers help escort it to the city," Timothy explained.

"In that case, the next time we meet I'll have broken through into the Blood Master realm." Waving goodbye to Timothy and River, Jewel drove the wagon that was under an immense amount of stress toward New Swampscott City.

A week later Yoze and Jewel made it back to New Swampscott City. Even though it had taken them a week to make it back with 8 tons of demon meat. Yoze and Jewel were glowing since they didn't have to suppress their appetites and simply ate as much demon meat as they could stomach. 

After a week Jewel had managed to eat a whopping 150 pounds of demon meat and was very impressed with herself. However, when she turned to look at Yoze who was walking beside her she felt that she needed to pick up a body cultivation method that increased her stomach size.
