Monster Devourer: System - 15 Mind Dimension
The sun was about to go on its slumber, when Neo finally saw the fortress from a distance. he also noticed that people has already gone inside, and the cold metal gates are already tightly close.
a long sigh of relief escape from Neo’s mouth, as he continued to move his legs, that are shaking from tiredness. he twisted his head towards his shoulders, to wipe the beads of sweat that are flowing out from his forehead.
the injury he took from the iron horn boar’s attack, was still painful but it wasn’t enough to hinder him from walking normally.
Liana was still in Neo’s embrace, when she pass out from crying her heart out. resulting for Neo to hold her the entire time.
And for the reason that night dwelling monsters, often comes out in the middle of the nigth to find some prey in this thick jungle . plus the fact that Liana was injured, and has lost her means to defend herself. camping on the woods was not a good idea.
With no other choice, but to continue holding the unconscious Liana, Neo, decided to travel in the fortress as fast as he could.
If others saw him holding Liana in his arms, they will like envy how, lucky he was for having a chance to embrace such a beauty girl.
But for Neo, he can’t wait to just drop her down on the ground, to rest his arm that were burning from pain.
And In spite of the fact, that Neo was alot stronger than before, holding a grown girl for 4 hours straight, was still a grueling task for him.
*ding*” [1 minute] training, results u003c+0.003 STRu003eu003c +0.002 VITu003e ”
*ding* “total training result [4 hours] u003c+0.72 STRu003e u003c+0.48u003e”
Seeing the notifications, from the corner of his eyes, Neo didn’t know if to laugh or cry,
“well the least, i’m still getting stat points ot of this” Neo thought to console himself.
Reaching the gates of the fortress, Neo slowly let Liana lean on the wall nearby. before stretching his sore arms.
After resting his hands for a bit, Neo pulled his smart device to be scanned by the control panel that was attached to the metal wall.
*crank….crank*
with a mechanical sound, the metal door slowly open by itself.
after walking inside the fortress, he was the by a guardian that happened to be walking nearby.
“you look awful, fellow revolutioner! should we i call some medical assistance for you and that little miss?” a stout man in his 40’s asked Neo, after seeing him go inside the fortress.
“yes, thank you” Neo said towards the guardian, as he slowly let Liana lay down on top of a bench near him.
the guardian took his smart device and started fidgeting with it for a short while. before putting it back to his belt.
“you should have send, a distress signal in the headquarters, life is much important than pride after all” the man said with a serious expression.
hearing this Neo could only stare at the man in disbelief,
“can, i really do that?” Neo asked
“erm…of course….could it be that your a new recruit?” man asked raising is eyebrows.
“yes”Neo.
“that explains everything, so let me explain how this works, using your smart device you can send the distress signal to our headquarter, but make sure to write your situation so that the rescue team act accordingly. but every time you call for help, your rank will likely decrease.”
“…. ” Neo could only facepalm. if he know it sooner, he could have just call some revolutionary to bring them back. and he didn’t have to suffer 4 hours and walking while holding *weights*
“well…. atleast you came back in one piece, and if im not mistaken, she must be your mentor, what happen?”
“she fought an Iron horn boar, she manage to wound it greatly causing the boar to go on a rampage, injuring us in the process, but then a huge white wolf killed the injured boar for us, before white wolf drag the boar with it away from us, and thankfully, my mentor injuries are not that life threatening, so i decided to return with her back to the fortress before it nigth time.” Neo explained.
“its a little strange for a monster, to not attack a human after seeing it , but i guess both of you got lucky” the man smiled to cheer up Neo.
“i guess”Neo.
shortly after a group 4 of people, riding a jeep arrive, they are wearing sets of white clothes with the printed word medic, on there back.
they put on Liana a stretcher before putting her inside the jeep, Neo also followed them, to get his back injury treated. after he bid the guardian his farewell.
arriving on the hospital, a plump Nurse with black short hair, named Diana applied some ointment on his back, before bandage it.
Diana also advised him stop moving around so much until his injury was healed. *he nods his head to that*
before walking out Neo heared that his Liana would need few days to recover from her ligth internal injury, and…..mana depletion?
“mana whats that?”the tried asking the goddess subordinate.
*ding* “mana is a supernatural force or power that may be ascribed to persons, spirits, or inanimate objects”
“i dont understand” Neo said in his mind.
*Ding* “you don’t have to, you only need to feel it”
“you only made it more harder to understand!” Neo thougth angrily.
*Ding*”that is why you only have 0.2 mana, so shut up, and just get stronger.”
“…” Neo.
Ignoring the Goddess subordinate harsh response , Neo returned home, but surprisingly didn’t saw his sister anywhere,
“she must have been playing outside” he thought.
He was not very worried Alice was a very smart girl for her age. and the second layer is small and heavely guarded. so chance that she was lost, was slim.
With that in mind, he hurriedly walk inside his room. untie his boots, put his spear and bag near the wall before taking off his SRCU and put it above a table.
Going inside the bathroom he used a wet cloth to clean his body, so that the bandaged on his back will not get wet, before changing his sweat drench clothes into a clean one.
After that, he steam some rice and cook a meat dish for her sister..before walking to the sofa to lay down and rest his tired body.
Few minutes later his little sister Alice returned home with skipping steps. Upon seeing his brother Alice, happily run towards him.
“brother I’ve returned !”she yell in joy.
Neo smiled weakly, “well it looks like your in a good mood. loving this place already?”
“yes! , Alice, made lot of friends!” Alice said cheerfully.
“thats great…so did you eat dinner?” Neo asked
“urm…..No” Alice answered shyly.
“that fine….theres a food in table” Neo said before standing up, to go to bed.
“brother, is the best!”Alice cheered.
“eat as much as you can, I’ll go sleep first” Neo said in a low voice.
“now for my well deserve sleep”. Neo thought as he let his body fall to the bed, and go to a deep slumber.
