Alex felt an impact.

It was like he had been hit by a speeding car.

Alex couldn't even discern all the different sounds that reverberated throughout his body.

He heard and felt several cracking noises, quickly followed by the sounds of rupturing flesh.

Alex couldn't breathe!

"Urgh- Hurgh!"

Alex puked and coughed violently as he spat blood out of his mouth.

'I can't breathe!'

Alex coughed violently as more and more blood came out of his body.

It felt like there was water in his lungs, and he desperately wanted to get some air, but only a disgusting gurgling sound came out of his mouth.

CRK! CRK!

Alex turned over to his side as he curled up like a shrimp. The sounds of cracking bone rang throughout his body as they quickly snapped back to their original place.

30 seconds of absolute agony and panic passed.

"Hurgh!"

Alex puked up a huge mass of blood, and he took a deep breath.

The panic slowly subsided as Alex gulped in a ton of air.

Then, he simply sat down.

This was way worse than he had imagined!

How was anyone supposed to do that multiple times?!

Alex only lay on the ground, trying to hold back his tears.

This was torture!

However, the burning of the Mana intensified again.

Alex had eaten an entire fruit, and one jump wasn't enough.

Alex's mind fell into disarray as he couldn't make a decision.

"I don't want to anymore!" he shouted to himself.

However, as he felt the Mana become even more intense, he stood up and climbed the tree again with shaking and fidgety limbs.

Alex didn't want to, but he jumped again.

This time, he landed on his back.

CRACK!

Alex had protected his head, but his spine broke apart.

Another 30 breathless seconds of panic and pain passed.
