LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 104: Finally
Shun was walking towards the batter's box while hearing the deafening sound of the crowd in the stadium. Without paying much attention, Shun stepped into the box and looked at the opposing pitcher. The man was tall and strong, but his face was blurry.
Shun then noticed a runner on second base before the pitcher started his wind-up. Quickly, a ball came towards home plate.
"Curveball!" - Shun used his skills to analyze the ball's trajectory and spin, easily identifying the pitch. Without thinking much, the boy swung his bat with force.
WOOSH
DONG
The ball was hit to right field, and Shun easily made it to second base, while the runner also scored without difficulty. The moment the runner stepped on home plate, Shun heard the system notification inside his head.
[DING]
[Congratulations, you have won the bronze tournament!]
[You received a bronze mystery box for winning the bronze tournament.]
Shun didn't even react to this notification. In the past few days, he had been winning every Bronze Tournament he participated in without any difficulty. But the notifications didn't stop there.
[DING]
[Arena Mission Completed! The rewards are now available in the arena missions area!]
"Finally!" - Shun celebrated excitedly when he heard the much-awaited notification. Without wasting any time, the boy quickly entered the arena missions area, heading straight to the legendary missions pillar.

Shun didn't bother selecting another mission at the moment and quickly exited the arena. His consciousness returned to his body, which was lying on his bed, but at the same moment, another system notification rang inside his head.
[DING]
[The Two-way Player (Part 2) mission has been completed!]
[The rewards are now available in the user's inventory.]
"I did it!" - Shun sighed in relief. He had taken until the very last day of the mission's deadline to complete the legendary arena mission, but he had succeeded.

"Inventory!" - Shun said without wasting any time. The boy had just completed two incredibly difficult missions, and because of that, his rewards would be equally incredible.
[Inventory:
1 Basic Recovery Potion
17 Bronze mystery boxes
1 Gold mystery box
1 Legendary mystery box
1 Legendary batter skill
1 Random legendary skill
2 Random grade SS elixirs
1 Potential improvement
1 Special item]
Shun looked at the transparent screen in front of him, almost unable to believe it. He had never seen so many good rewards piled up like this, which left the boy, exhausted both physically and mentally, feeling excited.
Shun looked at all the rewards, and then decided to first check what elixirs he had earned.
[Do you wish to use 2 Random grade SS elixirs?
Yes/No?]
"Yes!" - Shun said without hesitation.
[DING]
[The user has received 1 Coordination grade SS Elixir and 1 Agility grade SS Elixir!]
"Not bad..." - Shun thought as he looked at the two elixirs he had earned. Both stats were very useful.
The boy then faced a difficult decision, whether to take the elixirs now or later, and whether to take both at once or separately.
[Do you wish to use 1 Coordination grade SS Elixir and 1 Agility grade SS Elixir?
Yes/No?]
"Tomorrow is the first game of the Tokyo tournament, so the best option is to use the elixirs today. But as for using both at once..." - Shun began to recall the only time he had used two elixirs at the same time, and that was only because the old man had tricked him.
However, even knowing it would hurt more, Shun was too tired to go through the painful process twice in a row, so he made his decision.
"Yes!" - Shun said, afraid.
"Ahhhhhhhhh" - And it didn't take long for that fear to be justified. The boy felt unbearable pain all over his body, as the system made him incapable of making any noise, only able to scream in pain inside his head.
Shun felt all his muscles and fibers being destroyed and rebuilt in a way he had never felt before. The boy was already regretting the decision he had made, until all the pain disappeared, followed by a wonderful sensation of relief and healing.
"Thank God!" - Shun sighed in relief after enduring the nightmare. At that moment, the boy had no energy left for anything, not even to check his other rewards.
Shun passed out right there, not even needing the system's help to sleep. That showed just how exhausted he was. In the past few days, all Shun did was go to school, train, train, train, and then train even more in the arena. Clearly, even though the boy had a quirk like Divine Recovery, he still needed some rest.
------------
The next morning, Shun woke up refreshed, ready to check the rest of his rewards and also prepared for the first round of the Tokyo tournament.
