God Succession System 37 Recovery

When Koneko left the training area she found Rias and Asia waiting for her. Rias stepped forward and hugged her saying,

"Welcome back, I'm glad you seem to have been able to accept yourself more." Due to Koneko's ears and tail still being visible. Asia also stepped forward and said,

"Welcome back Koneko, I'm glad you're all right." She had noticed that Koneko seemed depressed and was glad she got better while training. The two girls then noticed that Alex didn't seem to be combing and asked Koneko,

"Where's Alex? I thought the two of you would be arriving together." Koneko looked concerned for. Moment, and said,

"He's stayed to try something, he asked me to go ahead and check on him if he doesn't come back in an hour." Hearing her words both of the girls became worried, and decided to wait for him, or go and get him in an hour. As the minutes ticked by they became increasingly worried. As they waited the last few minutes, they suddenly felt a surge of power. They couldn't identify where it was coming from, but it felt oppressive and overbearing. Only a second later the power disappeared. There were still a couple minutes, but Rias was too anxious to wait and they went to the training area.

What awaited them was a scene of destruction. There was a crater in the ground along with several large cracks, the equipment was destroyed and the furniture ruined. They didn't worry about any of this though, as the thing that seized their attention was Alex laying down in a growing puddle of his own blood.

When Alex awoke, he didn't know what happened immediately and focused instead on the several women surrounding his bed.

"Don't do that to me again!" Rias cried as she pulled him into her arms.

"Don't make me a widow before we even marry!" Ravel cried out with tears running down her face. The rest of the girls made similar comments about now how reckless and irresponsible he was. Alex couldn't help but agree.

Ddraig said in his head. Lauren seemed to feel the same thing as he didn't listen to their warnings. Alex didn't say anything to the two, promising to speak to them later before turning back to the girls. According to them Rias, Asia, and Koneko found him in a puddle of his own blood with several lacerations all over his body. The lacerations appeared to have gone from inside the body out, and he had blood flowing from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. Alex knew what happened, he tried to combine the boosted gear and super Saiyan and his body simply couldn't handle the power.

"I don't know what you were doing, but if I didn't have Asia with me you probably wouldn't even have made it. I'm won't ask you to reveal everything you're training to us, but at least take us into consideration." Rias said with tears falling from her face. Alex held her face and brought her closer and kissed her.

"I'm sorry, that was why I told Koneko to get me if I didn't return in an hour, in case something happened." Even with his words they didn't seem convinced. It appeared that Alex had only slept for a day, thanks to the healing that Asia provided. He also felt more power in his body, thanks to his Saiyan blood making him stronger after being in a near death state. It took the girls several hours to calm down, and when they finally left he started his conversation with Ddraig and Lauren.

Ddraig said immediately.

'Agreed' Lauren also immediately agree with him. He only smiled bitterly at their words. But he also felt a sense of accomplishment as he now knew his limits. He had made it to three boosts, before his body almost exploded on the third boost. According to Lauren, the super Saiyan power up multiplied his strength by fifty, the super Saiyan 2 was double that at a hundred, then the super Saiyan 3 was double that at two hundred times his base power. His first boost doubled his multiplied power, and put him at the same level if he had gone to super Saiyan 2, he then felt a serious feeling of discomfort due to his body not handling the extra power well. The second boost put him at a super Saiyan three level, and he had stared bleeding from his tear ducts, nose, and ears. The third one had doubled the power of a super Saiyan three, and put him at four hundred times his original power. He didn't even hold this for a second before his body started breaking down and exploding outward from the excess power, and he instantly dispelled it before blacking out.

Alex was disappointed that he wasn't able to increase his strength even further, but he was also excited that he now knew he could use a boost, or even a second one if need be for future battles. Seeing Alex wasn't willing to put aside combining the two powers, Ddraig and Lauren just sighed. After they discussed the details Alex then laid back down, and closed his eyes to sleep, already thinking of ways around the power limits.
