Chapter 87: Special Bath
Finally, the brutal training day for Leo ended with a nice warm supper and a special medicinal bath prepared by Ben with secret ingredients.
As Leo approached the barrel that Ben had prepared for him, he couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows in surprise and a hint of apprehension.
By now, he had reached his threshold for pain tolerance, his body was winded, bruised, punctured and ached like hell which made him less enthusiastic about turning into human stew.
The barrel prepared by Ben for him was filled to the brim with a liquid that was a dirty green in color, its surface emitting a faint mist in the cool evening air.
The odor that wafted from it was complex, a mixture of earth, a hint of sulfur, and an array of scents from the myriad of secret herbs Ben had collected.
The consistency of the liquid seemed thick, almost viscous, as if the water itself had been transformed into a healing potion.
With a nod from Ben, Leo slowly disrobed, still eyeing the concoction warily. Stepping into the barrel, he felt the peculiar mixture envelop his legs, the consistency more akin to a gel than water. As he lowered himself completely, the initial shock of the temperature—surprisingly warm and not at all unpleasant—gave way to a series of sensations that were difficult to describe.
The thick liquid seemed to cling to his skin, seeping into the myriad cuts and bruises with a sweet, tingling pain that was both soothing and invigorating.
” Agh yes…. Yes! This feels gooooodd” Leo said with a sigh as he felt like he was in euphoria.
Inside the bath, Leo felt as if the weight of the day’s training was being lifted from his shoulders, the pain from his wounds diminishing with every passing second.
The thick, dirty green liquid worked its magic, penetrating deep into his muscles, easing the tension and fatigue that had built up over the day.
It was an odd feeling, being submerged in something that felt alive, as if the bath itself was assessing and healing his injuries with an intelligence of its own.

Leo was stunned to see his body getting direct stat benefits that were achieved without him improving a level!
This was unheard of in the world of Terra Nova, with no one on the global server talking about this phenomenon.
It was a truly difficult thing to achieve as usually to see such a direct improvement, one either needed to drink a high quality potion, or repeatedly undergo strenuous training so that gradually their muscles and body saw improvement.
What the medicinal bath made by Ben did however was that all the micro-tears, all the strain that Leo’s body had accumulated over the day, that would impede him the next day and would take several days to heal naturally were healing instantly as Leo gained the benefits of training for a week in a single day.
The improvements to his body were almost immediate. The aches from the day’s exertions began to fade, replaced by a growing sense of strength and vitality.
Leo could almost feel his body absorbing the benefits of the bath, his skin tingling with renewed energy as it almost made Leo forget about all the suffering he had been through.
The stat benefits were also a much welcomed bonus as Leo felt stronger, quicker, and more resilient, as if the bath was imbuing him with qualities that went beyond mere physical healing.
An hour later, as Leo emerged from the bath, his skin was tinged with a faint green hue, a temporary mark of the potent herbs and minerals that had worked to repair and fortify his body.
The cuts and bruises that had marred his skin were now significantly healed, some of the smaller ones completely vanishing as if they had never been and his muscles feeling supple and powerful, ready for whatever challenges lay ahead.
Ben watched with a satisfied nod, knowing well the effects of his concoction and the effects it would have on a young boy like Leo.
“This bath, will I get to enjoy it everyday?” Leo asked as Ben chuckled and nodded his head.
“You should thank my master, without him, you would not be enjoying this bath.
And yes, you will get to enjoy it for at least a year, however, the effects won’t be as potent as time passes by” Ben said as he reminisced about the time when he used to enjoy this bath after training.

The secret herbs needed for this bath were collected from the hidden corners of Mt.Faulkner and were unique only to this mountain, where plantations were made several decades ago by his father for the time when Ben eventually took in a disciple.
Each herb used in the bath added a unique property to the bath, enhancing Leo’s physical qualities beyond the ordinary and if sold in the open market could fetch several dozen gold coins for each individual herb sold, with Ben using several dozen herbs for concocting each bath for Leo.
It was a well-guarded secret, one that Ben’s family had perfected over generations of experimentation and study and was the core secret of his clan as Leo was lucky to enjoy something so precious free of charge.
Finally, with his workout for day one coming to an end, Leo finally received the notification to get out of Terra Nova as he was supposed to be briefed about his new job today.
It was a hard day in the game, undoubtedly, however, for Leo it was soon going to become the new normal.
