43. Why is this…?

The drug did not make any difference to my body.

Just in case, I closed my eyes, saved mana, and looked at the situation of my body, but it was a strange feeling.

It is certainly true that the drug gave a special stimulation to the body.

The stimulation that spread evenly from head to toe did not make any changes to my body.

The drug that was said to supplement the ingredients necessary for rapid growth, which I drank together, was also apparently consumed, but it did not make any difference.

My hands are shaking.

I felt like I could reach my goal that seemed almost reachable in front of my eyes, but the sense of loss and futility of not being able to reach it once again circulates through my body.

“Again… Hey…?”

The terrible sense of loss soon turned into anger.

This time, it was an opportunity that happened by chance, but it was a rare opportunity.

“Uh.. Uh uh uh?? It’s strange, why is there no response??”

Professor Prague was very upset when the drug failed.

Of course he seemed to think it would be successful.

Professor Prague, who glanced at me, thought hard about the reason and came to a conclusion.

“What is your family history…? We also need to consider the upper limit of genes…”

“Do you want to keep making me angry? My parents are all taller and my younger brother is taller than me. Where are the genes?”

It was a sound that would make a vein jump out of your forehead.

That’s the cruelest part about my height problem.

Initially, it is impossible to have a genetic shield, the most basic shield in the world.

In my family, there was no gene for such a short height, whether in my parents’ or my mother’s family, so my height becomes a personal problem.

“Then it may be a fundamentally different problem from the growth of other people…”

Embarrassed, the Prague professor hurriedly began to explain.

“General.. Poor growth is due to environmental and social factors or medical disorders. Medical disorders are nutritional imbalances or lack of hormone secretion, resulting in failure to grow.”

“I know that much.”

“But this drug is the first drug to provide all the nutrients needed for rapid growth…

It commands the body to grow rapidly and stimulates each part.

So it is possible to solve what is commonly called a medical disorder.”

“… Just in case. How long have you been making these medicines?”

“Uh… I don’t know because I didn’t count it. Wait a minute. If you look at the label, it will say… Eight… Years?”

“I made it and left it there for 8 years. Is it okay?”

I tried to say it with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw.

“The preservation magic is also applied, so it’ll probably be fine.”

“It’s okay, right?”

“Preservation magic is the greatest magic that changed history. It can be preserved for 10 years without fear of deterioration.”

If you say it’s okay because it’s under a preservation magic, it means that it’s not a drug problem after all.

What the hell is the problem then?

“Then what’s the problem? Don’t talk mentally. I lived a very happy life when I stopped growing.”

“Then maybe a curse…?”

“That was the first thing that came to my mind, so I even went to see the saintess. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

Those who hate the titans are taking revenge in the most terrible way.

When the first thing he could think of was not all, only embarrassment remained on Professor Prague’s face.

“Then… I don’t know… I might find out if I get a closer inspection…

I’ll ask you to the left side of the bottle. It’s my first time doing something like this… So I think I’ll need some proper data.

I will definitely… I will definitely solve the problem…!!”

———————————-

That night I had a nightmare.

To say it was a nightmare wasn’t a big deal.

I’m not afraid of ghosts or monsters.

I’ve killed all of them, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.

In the terrible nightmare, there were things I couldn’t kill and things I couldn’t cut off.

That nightmare was the days of living in the Titan family’s mansion.

From noble mtl dot com

I still remember the day I ran away to the knights without being able to break the bond between my father and mother that I could not sever with my own hands until the end.

“Dream seats are terrible.”

When I woke up in the dormitory, my whole body was drenched in sweat.

Maybe it was because I ate something strange the day before.

When I thought of her family, I thought of her younger sister who is leading the Titans by herself.

Looking at the fact that there are no rumors, it seems that we are still doing well, but there must be problems that are difficult to solve internally.

Titan’s mansion is still uncomfortable because most of it has unpleasant memories, but she vowed to be the first to visit it if it was vacation season.

It’s because the difficult things that she can’t solve as the head of household won’t be a big problem for me.

After taking a light shower, I went out to the vacant lot where we always gather.

I came out first this time too.

… No, I was alone, I must have been distracted by a nightmare.

The two of them haven’t even been discharged yet, so I wonder who they’re waiting for..

Before starting the exercise, take a short dagger out of your pocket and lean against a tree.

After aligning the toes and the head accurately, measure the tip of the head with a dagger and mark it on the tree.

“… What?”

The sensation felt at the fingertips is different.

Originally, it should be drawn exactly in accordance with the traces that have always been drawn, but this time it feels like drawing a place where there are no traces.

I measured it again just in case, but the result was the same.

“….. I’m sure it’s not reduced…?”

If you draw somewhere other than the usual place, it means that you could have drawn above it, but on the contrary, you could have drawn it below.

It is common knowledge that height actually decreases after growth ends.

This is because the space between the vertebrae becomes narrower over time.

However, to avoid that, I made the back muscles that support the spine like that, but I believe it’s not possible.

I build muscle to prevent the narrowing of the spine, but I can’t lift heavy things well.

With a pounding heart, I turned my head and saw the tree that had been cut.

“Huh?”

I doubted my eyes.

I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, so I opened my mouth and stared at the traces.

I’m not sure how long I’ve been watching.

I was looking at the marks drawn on the tree by myself, and before I knew it, someone was standing right behind me.

The two people who always worked out together can’t come now, so who are they?

“Atlas… I heard you’re working out alone right now… Can I join you for a while…?”

I heard the voice and the identity of the person sneaking up on me was Lucia.

Lucia hesitantly brought out her words, and when I didn’t answer, she was strange, so she lowered her head and looked directly at my face, and was surprised.

“Atlas… Are you crying? That… I’m sorry if I was such a nuisance…”

Tears were flowing down my face.

She thought those tears were crying because she had invited her to exercise in the morning, so Lucia felt depressed.

“No.”

There were tears in his eyes, but his voice was very calm.

No, it would be more accurate to say that I was thrilled.

I am witnessing a very historic moment right now.

“It went up..Uh”

“..It went up?”

Not understanding my meaning, Lucia tilted her head.

She doesn’t know what the three strands of incontinence in front of my eyes mean.

Have you ever cared about something like this in your life?

“The scale has gone up by one..”

A new trace has been added to the tree between 150 and 149.5, Which at first glance seem to be stuck together.

The newly recorded figure is 149.6.

It only grew by 0.1.

Some people would say it’s not a big deal, but it meant a lot to me.

It has been almost 10 years since I stopped growing at my height of 149.5.

His height, which remained the same at the moment he crossed the huge barrier between the superlative expert and the master, grew by 0.1.

“What a… 10 Years…!!

For the first time in 10 years… I grew taller… Damn…!!!!!”

It’s 0.1 At best, but I was very moved.

He clenched her fists and swung them into the air over and over again before hugging Lucia, who was standing idly by her side.

“Hot? Atlas??”

She didn’t just hug her, he grabbed her by the waist and lifted her up and spun her around.

As for her build, she was much bigger than me, but I wasn’t underpowered, so she panicked as her feet came off the ground and spun in sync with my movements.

Her puffy breasts went up on her head in a position where her face had been buried before.

I could feel the softness of her breasts in her hair, but the firmness of her hugged waist.

But I don’t really care about that.

I was so happy that I felt like hugging anyone.

“I’m not sure… Are you happy right now?”

“I can’t express how happy I am, damn it!!!”

In terms of objective joy levels, I am happier now than when I became a master.

I’ve been thinking about why I’ve grown taller now, but I wonder if the medicine I took yesterday worked?

It didn’t grow rapidly, but it definitely had an effect.

I feel very good.

Amy was trustworthy.

As expected, Niko Prague was a reliable player.

Let’s give more support.

Aside from being supported by Titan, I will complete it at least with my personal fortune.

—————————————-

Nico Prague is in a very difficult situation.

‘How do I do this…!!’

I thought it was really heartbreaking to come for a midterm inspection from the titan family that supported research funds yesterday.

Titans are a prestigious family known even in the empire.. A fearsome family called the giants of the rugged Blade’s Edge Mountains.

I didn’t even know why such a place was supporting this research, but I didn’t pay much attention to it because so far, I only received interim reports and paid money.

I thought Atlas, who came to check it, looked a bit like the younger brother he left behind in the Daewoo Forest, but he was a grim reaper.

‘Uh… What should I do…? I really don’t have anything to show you…??’

In the beginning, I thought that the research would work out smoothly even until I made the medicine for growing taller, but I couldn’t make progress there.

So I had to bring back the data I showed you the first time, but in reality, it was like paying money and not showing results for several years.

I fell into a panic while searching for data and impulsively went into hiding… But it only made things worse.

Atlas, who drank the only result, the taller drug, saying that he would see the effect himself, did not even see the effect.

I panicked once more.

It turned out there was no progress in the research, but it didn’t even work?

I was in a situation where the support was immediately cut off and I had nothing to say even if I was grabbed by the neck and told to vomit up everything I had received and ate.

Fortunately, I was so grateful when they said they would give me another chance.

And the next day…

“Professor, I believed you. Damn…!!! He was tall!!!”

Atlas came to the lab early in the morning, grabbed his hand and shook it wildly.

“The medicine seems to have worked, but I’ll improve it a little more and make it into a medicine that really increases it to 180 as you said, right?

If you need anything more, please feel free to contact us!! I believe in you!!”

That’s what Atlas said, even saying he could increase the budget if necessary.

Really… I’m really grateful, but at the same time I’m scared.

‘How is that possible?’

What Atlas said was completely out of his control.

Still, he can’t explain anything about what happened after Atlas drank the drug yesterday.

Why didn’t the effect appear as soon as the drug was created with the goal of ‘rapid growth’…

Even if he grew up one beat later the next day… Why did Atlas grow by 0.1 While everyone else grew by 10 or more?

It is impossible to even explain whether his growth was affected by the drug in the first place.

It could be that he just grew up when he was growing up without the influence of drugs.

This and that are all strange things.

‘I don’t even know how it happened… Recreate it? No more than that?’

The most terrible thing is that there is no right to veto.

Anyway, it seems that the support for this research will be decided in his hands.
