Iris released her hug from Ethan and lifted her hand, holding a potion bottle. She unscrewed the cap and ran her finger along Ethan's face, smearing the liquid from the bottle across his skin. Iris tenderly ran her little fingers along Ethan's face, neck, and arms, providing a cooling sensation. His wounds began to heal. Olivia remained beside Ethan with her arms crossed, and she asked, "How much longer is this going to take?" Iris stopped her finger movement, then handed the potion bottle to Ethan and lowered her head as she turned to Olivia. "I'll give you a new one." Ethan spoke up, saying. Iris then turned to him and shook her head in response. Teddy, Baron, and several members of the military, along with representatives from the Sword and Shield Guild, had arrived. Despite their tired and battered appearances, they were all beaming with joy. "Thank you, Ethan," Teddy said gratefully. "None of this would have been possible without you." Ethan modestly shook his head in res
Ethan and Olivia sustained injuries that night, but they weren't too serious. Thanks to the healing potions they bought from the System, they were able to recover quickly. They returned to their respective rooms, cleaned up, changed their clothes, and then reconvened in Olivia's living room. Ethan, feeling exhausted and relieved, sank into the inviting comfort of the sofa. The stress that had been coursing through his body began to dissipate and he found himself gradually enveloped in a peaceful serenity. His eyes slowly shut as his body melted into the plush surface of the couch. "Wow...That's really calming," Ethan said as he felt the exhaustion slowly slipping away from his body. He was hoping that this night would be peaceful and restful, as he had had a particularly long night. He had faced dragon attacks and had even been thrown from the sky. Ethan gulped as he realized that he had made it through everything he had gone through. He had even made a new friend, Iris, who had b
Ethan awoke, his eyes slowly fluttering open to find Olivia sitting at the glass table in front of him. She had changed her clothes and looked neat and cute in a blue dress and white blouse, her legs crossed. She smiled and waved at him. "Hi!" she said."Let's go on a date," She added."Huh?" Ethan was surprised, his eyes widening in surprise as his gaze shifted around the dark room.The only illumination came from a few small windows around the edges, which usually only appeared when Olivia had purposefully turned off all the other lights at night before going to sleep. As if to emphasize her point, her house was usually filled with different kinds of lights that would automatically turn on whenever someone entered a room."The government decided to cut off electricity during the day, except for vital places such as hospitals, shopping centers, and other essential public facilities."It had been a few weeks since the meteorite struck, wreaking major changes in people's lives. The con
Ethan deliberately asked Fang to keep watch outside, knowing that it was futile to attempt to hide their identities any longer.Olivia's devoted followers could easily identify her, as could Ethan's detractors, who could detect her presence even from a distance. The two opposing groups of people constantly attempted to tail them, tracking their movements and voicing their opinions freely.As Ethan and Olivia were enjoying their lunch, a waiter approached and bowed his head respectfully before speaking. "Excuse me, sir," he began, "there is a large wolf standing outside this cafe, blocking other visitors who wish to enter."Ethan kept eating, aware that Olivia was likely to respond to the man more quickly than he would."I'll take care of any losses this cafe incurred," Olivia declared, gesturing with her hand. The maid stepped back, heading to the other waitstaff, who was nervously glancing at Ethan.Several other people in the cafe had been surreptitiously trying to take photos of th
Realizing that there was likely to be an uproar in the cafe, several people scrambled out of the premises. The waitress, who had gathered at one point, looking panicked, watched Ethan and Olivia with bated breath. "We need to get out of here!" one of them exclaimed. “Olivia, if indeed a fight cannot be avoided. It would be better if we lured them to a less populated area.” Olivia turned to Ethan, nodding her head. "I agree. We better get out of here. I'm sure they'll still follow us." Ethan walked towards the wooden door which was wide open after all the cafe's visitors had completely left the place. Ethan approached Fang who was standing facing several people lined up in front of him. Andreas' cynical face stood out the most among those few people. Ethan stroked Fang's head, then walked back, approaching Andreas. "Hello, boy." Andreas smiled, squinting at Ethan, who was walking towards him. The Mjolnir appeared in Ethan's right palm. After that, Fang also turned into black ener
Olivia flew swiftly through the air with her transparent wings flapping around her head. The moonlight was unable to keep up with her speedy silhouette, and her hands were clenched into fists, her nails digging into her palms. The stinging sensation of the wounds she usually inflicted upon herself in battle had become numbed to her. "They really frustrate me," Olivia said, unable to contain her anger any longer. She was referring to the group of people who had ganged up on Ethan the night before, and the uneasy feeling that had been building in her heart all day had finally reached its peak. "I will make sure they experience a pain that they will never forget, not even until their last breath," Olivia thought to herself, recalling the cruel actions of the Beastmaster Guild leader who had attacked her that day. At the same time, some of his minions had restrained her and thrown punches at her stomach and back. ‘It would be beneficial if I could acquire some of their skills.' Olivia
A pair of translucent wings flapped rapidly, propelling Olivia into the air. She gracefully dove down and landed back on the ground, planting her knees firmly into the dirt. Olivia deftly dodged the man's strike with her scaly limb.Olivia rose to her feet, balling her fists and standing in a determined stance. Her gaze was firmly fixed on the trio standing not far away from her."Oppa, please, give me a chance this time to prove myself. Let me complete this task on my own."Olivia spoke to Ethan through the communication device in her ear, her voice determined but her heart racing. She knew the opponent she was facing was stronger than she had anticipated, and this time she was determined to prove herself; she couldn't rely on Ethan forever."Okay," Ethan replied, "what about Fang?" He nodded in agreement to Olivia's words, and seconds later, Fang's figure could be seen racing away in the distance. Despite the distance, Ethan could still make out Fang's movements, his eyesight being
"Again, don't come any closer unless I ask you to!" Olivia shouted, gripping the small device tightly in her hand. His focus shifted back to the two figures who stood not far away.Olivia was overcome with fear at the unfolding events, but she knew she had to keep her wits about her and focus on the two people in front of her."Why do I have to get this power?" Olivia asked, a hint of distress in her voice. She had initially thought cats were cute, but not like this! Fearing what might happen to her if the hair persisted on her body even after the battle was over, she was also concerned that she wouldn't have the courage to fight in front of anyone if she had to do so in her new form."What should I do?" Olivia asked, her face reddening in embarrassment. "Can I still return to my original form?"She glanced at the two men standing at attention in front of them."Would it be better if we waited for the others to come, John?""You can run," John said with a dismissive wave of his hand.
