Trust

While this happened, Alex was grasping the rock in his hand. His muscles tensed, and the veins throbbed as he exerted a lot of strength, trying to crush it.

CRACK! 

A glow came out from the grasp.

His lips then curled into a grin, and with one motion, he ate the rocks.

The moment they reached his tongue, the contents of the rock melted. The taste was beyond his wildest thoughts.

It was soft, silky, and very sweet. If anyone told him this was ambrosia, he would believe it without a second question.

He then felt an incredible amount of energy surging through his body.

Energy exploded outward, followed by excruciating pain. Alex could feel all the veins in his body boiling.

"Arghh!!!" he screamed in pain, but it only lasted for a moment before it was replaced by a grin.

He spit out the leftover rock from his mouth as a notification appeared in his eyes.
