The Human Giant

Chapter 67 67: Mindless Body



The pressure coming from Yoze's attempt at a breakthrough made Jewel sweat as she retreated to a corner to not get in his way. She was worried that if he accidentally slammed into her she would die in an instant.

Completely focused on breaking his limit Yoze could feel every change in his body. Every muscle twitching, his blood flowing, and even how the tiny tears in his muscles quickly healed before tearing again.

Yoze's insights into his own body were so detailed that he could almost create a perfect image of his internal situation inside his head.

As Yoze pushed his body he noticed that something strange but expected was happening with his legs. Two conflicting situations were occurring simultaneously. One was where Yoze was in control and told his legs to jump to a specific location and another was where his legs tried to move on their own in another direction.

These two actions conflicted with each and resulted in some wasted time and energy just before Yoze's will took control. It was such a big waste of time and energy that Yoze had a feeling fixing this issue could be the key to breaking through Mindless Legs' limits.

Following this feeling, Yoze began to stop giving orders to his body and tried to let Mindless Legs do what it wanted. Yoze used brute force to compel his mind to stop giving orders causing him to stop training Twin Fists.

[Mindless Legs (Stage 5: 101%)]

But Yoze felt that it was worth it as he saw that had made some progress with Mindless Legs. It wasn't enough for a breakthrough but he knew he was on the right path and continued to train in this method.

[Mindless Legs (Stage 5: 120%)]

By the time the sun began to set Yoze had reached 120 percent and had gotten rid of the lost time and wasted energy that was plaguing his legs. Even though this was a good thing Yoze could not help but feel that he was missing something.

Not only is he stuck at 120 percent, but he also didn't see any more room to grow in this direction. Yoze had been allowing his legs to do all the orders allowing his movements to become much more streamlined and flexible.

"What is the issue with my method that is halting his progress?" Yoze grabbed his chin and remembered what he had been doing previously.

"Wait, could it be?"

That was when inspiration struck Yoze as he tried to capture it and used Mindless Legs. Putting a hyper-focus on the movements of his body Yoze noticed that there was a slight lag between his legs moving and the rest of his body.

"My legs move before anything else causing this slight disconnect. Once again causing a lot of unnecessary waste of time and energy."

"I need to make them sync with each other again. But how can I do that when I don't know what my legs are going to do?"

Thinking about how he was going to solve this issue, Yoze suddenly sensed his right leg twitch as he felt that it was like his legs were trying to spread their control to the rest of his body.

"Do I need to give up control of my own body as well? Mindless Legs isn't satisfied with just controlling my legs, but wants to control my whole body. It's like it's getting a mind of its own."

Yoze recalled the description of Mindless Legs being that it allowed for his legs to seem as if they had their own mind. But to Yoze his mindless legs seemed to be really trying to acquire a mind of their own.

"From Mindless Legs to Mindless Body, I wonder what will happen?" Yoze smiled as he felt that he once again found a direction he could chase after.

Just as he was about to start another training session, Yoze remembered that he wasn't alone. Yoze looked around to find that Jewel was curled up in a corner staring at him as if she was a kitten abandoned on the street.

"Hey Jewel you can leave whenever you want. I'm just going to stay here to continue training." Yoze said feeling bad that he had completely forgotten about her.

"It's fine," Jewel quickly replied as if she wasn't going to leave until he did.

Yoze would have felt better about her wanting to stay but when he saw that she still had her eyes staring at him with suspicion. He felt that she felt that he would do something crazy and didn't want to be left out.

"You said that to train the Jade Armor body cultivation requires equipment to train, right?" 

"That's right, what about it? Do you want to start teaching me?" Jewel suddenly perked up hearing Yoze asking her about her body cultivation method.

"Nope, but you can use the equipment to train if you get bored. I will just avoid this area of the yard for you."

"Oh, thanks," Jewel said in a disappointed tone.

Seeing that Jewel didn't seem to be interested in training at the moment, Yoze went back to trying to break through Mindless Legs' limit.

Yoze tried to relax the parts of his body that he felt his Mindless Legs tried to control. At first, it was a slow process and there were many times that even after relaxing Yoze couldn't give up control over those areas. 

But as it went deeper into the night Yoze lost more and more control of his body and handed control over to his mindless legs. Starting from his legs then to his torso, his arms, and finally, to his head Yoze allowed Mindless Legs to expand its control.

To Yoze who wasn't controlling a single fiber of his body. He felt his mind's processing ability and mental capabilities rapidly grow. In Yoze's perception, it was like everything had slowed down and the darkness of the night became as bright as the outside.

He saw that Jewel had walked towards the equipment with spikes and used it to poke her entire body. From the look on her face, he could tell that it was painful. But he saw that even though it looked like the spikes were going to poke holes in her skin, in reality, her skin was hanging on to its dear life but wasn't at risk of breaking.
