By the time his morning training ended, exhaustion weighed down his body, but that didn’t mean he could just collapse from fatigue. First, he needed to ice himself so he could cool off his muscles. This presented him with the perfect moment to shine as a water magician.

Ryo applied membranes of icy water over his body to cool his warm muscles. He left the water against his skin for fifteen minutes—enough time for his blood vessels to contract. Once he finished icing himself, the blood vessels would dilate once more to flush away the metabolic waste that causes fatigue.

Finally, for the cooldown portion of his exercise routine, he finished with more calisthenics. With all of this, he should be able to avoid injuries. Hopefully.

For lunch, he ate his leftovers from breakfast. He always made sure to cook two meals’ worth of food in the morning. Whether one serving or two, the labor remained the same.

And then, it was time to hunt.

Hunting... Lately the activity had become almost mundane to him. Ryo knew facing off against lesser rabbits and lesser boars no longer posed life-threatening challenges to him. He’d even become an old hand at fighting normal rabbits and normal boars.

Of course, none of this meant he acted carelessly. There was always the chance that he could run into an assassin hawk or something worse. In that sense, assassin hawks truly were dangerous enemies for humans.

At the moment, he was still struggling to adapt to his morning training regimen, which affected his afternoons. Once he became more accustomed to the exercise, Ryo wanted to expand his range of activities.

For now, he restricted himself to the eastern and northern parts of the forest. Someday though, he would venture to the southwest where...the sea lay! Yes, indeed, he would someday have to make the trek there for a simple but important reason—to procure salt.

Water and salt, the two things humans absolutely needed for survival. He could produce an endless supply of the former, but not so much the latter. God had turned Lot’s wife into a pillar of salt in the Book of Genesis and Ryo definitely could...not perform such a feat. Shoot, it would be terrifying if he could.

In any case, his safest option to acquire salt would be to look for salt flats near the coast. The supply of salt Fake Michael had prepared for him was plentiful enough to last him more than a year, even at the pace he currently used it, but Ryo had never panned for salt in his life, so he wanted to know how difficult or laborious it would be to get his hands on the mineral. He hated the idea of waiting until his supply ran out to look for a new source.

Plus, he had a hankering for seafood. It had been a long time since his last taste of the sea’s bounties...which may or may not have factored into his decision to trek to the sea. As much as he loved meat, he certainly didn’t dislike seafood either.
