Compared to Samuel, it was almost 100 times more.
So the process itself was actually very difficult.
Yet, Riya did it in such a short period of time.
"You're really…" Samuel didn't know what to say when he thought about this. He knew very well that the main reason why people were able to endure the terrifying pain from the mana compression had to do with their willpower.
Without strong willpower and determination, how could it be possible for them to endure the pain that could possibly shatter their soul during the mana heart compression?
All returnees knew very well the impact of not doing mana heart compression correctly.
They would never be able to reach rank 9.
So they had to do it carefully, even if they have to endure that kind of pain once again.
"Hmm?" Riya made a voice and tilted her head.
Samuel saw this look and fell into silence before shaking his head. "It's nothing. I have just found out that your willpower is stronger than expected."
"We're all people who have died once… isn't it more painful when you have your entire soul and body ripped apart during your death?" Riya asked in a low voice.
The pain of the mana heart compression was really nothing compared to her own death in that world.
She didn't know how she managed to come back when she should have died in that place. The pain when her entire body and soul were broken apart could never be forgotten and Riya knew very well that it might haunt her for her entire life.
She didn't want to die again.
But she also knew that it was an impossible request.
There will come the time for her to leave this world.
And before that time arrived, Riya hoped that she could achieve her dream of reaching the peak.
"Ah…" Samuel scratched the back of his head uncomfortably.
He also remembered that the pain of his death back then was really something that he didn't want to remember. Having his body broken apart by the magic beasts under their barrage of attack, he couldn't even imagine what would happen to his body.
Perhaps it would be trampled to death under the rage of those magic beasts.
Samuel didn't know.
"Hmm?"
Riya looked up and noticed the runes outside that was previously distorted had slowly return to normal. At the same time, something flew towards her and before she could stop it, the small light entered her forehead.
"Riya!" Samuel was stunned when he saw it and almost instinctively walked in.
But he remembered that Riya set up a formation there and if he walked in rashly, he might not be able to come out alive.
"I'm fine." Riya raised her hand.
There was a message entering her mind and her pupil dilated slightly.
She looked around for a moment before forcing herself to calm down.
"What's that? Did someone attack you…?"
"No. It's not an attack." It's a message.
