After the man fainted, Eren and I lifted him onto the bed in the room. This time, I tied him to the bed in anticipation of the effects. When everything was safe, we left the glass room. But before we left, I looked at the wound on his neck. It wasn't completely gone, but I was sure it was drying up."Are you sure this will work?" Eren asked once we were out of the glass room.I was silent for a moment until I finally nodded firmly. "I'm sure." I took a step, lifting my arms to stretch my body. "I think I should rest for a while.""Is this a subtle eviction?" quipped Eren as he raised an eyebrow. He looked annoyed that he still seemed to want to talk to me."If you want, you can sleep in one of the rooms here," I offered. Ignoring him, I walked out and went up to my room. It was such a relief to have my wand back and to be able to make healing potions.Being too tired and sleepy, I fell asleep as soon as I lay down on my bed. I didn't even care if Eren was home or not.I woke up when i
For several days Eren and I searched for infected people and gathered them in a castle in the middle of the forest. It turned out that there were many infected people wandering around outside the cordoned-off area.We had brought more than 10 people we found in the forest. The quiet atmosphere worked in our favour, so no one saw what we were doing. We deliberately did not tell the other hunters because, according to Eren, the situation would be more dangerous if many people knew about my abilities.The skills I have will make many people jealous. Especially my ability to make potions, which few people have.When we brought in the infected, we tied their legs and hands to the bed because they kept rebelling. We were also afraid that if we didn't tie them up, they would fight and eat each other.We set up small beds in a fairly large room and put the people on them. They were all facing the same direction and there was a huge screen on the wall.The energy had turned them into complete
I gaped as I was invited into one of the rooms in Eren's house. This wasn't just a room for making potions like mine, but a laboratory.He threw a white coat at me, who was still stunned when he entered the room. "What are you doing here?" The question came out of my mouth. I'd seen places like this in science films before."I used to be a researcher in a laboratory. But because of someone's malice, I was fired and couldn't work anywhere else. When I was really down, the system came to me and made me a hunter. But I was a scientist, I couldn't just leave my world. I ended up building my own lab in my house."I nodded at Eren's explanation. His path was not much different from mine. We were both ostracised from the world and eventually became the chosen ones to become hunters.I followed Eren as he carried the bottle with the sample to a table. There was a microscope on the table. Eren took a small sample of blood from infected 01 and placed it on a small glass, which was then placed u
I hold my cheek, which had just received a gift from Olivia. The person was gone, but the feeling was still there.I let out a long sigh as I realised I deserved it. Olivia's gift was not a kiss on the cheek, but a hard slap for daring to kiss her without permission.I don't know why I dared. It just happened, and I have no regrets, even though I got a slap at the end.I went back to my room to clean up. Then I took out my wand to open the gates of Smoky Hollow. I needed to gather sneezeweed clover to make a healing potion.I was hopeful that the infected could be saved, though not all of them. Not wanting to waste any time, I picked up the sneezeweed as soon as I arrived in Smoky Hollow. With my skills, I could always land wherever I wanted.Once I had what I wanted, I went straight to the waterfall. There, I could practice in peace. There was a lot of natural energy to absorb.I went back to practicing energy-drawing magic to improve my skills. The incident of losing the wand was al
"This is so beautiful." That was the first thing I said when I saw what was at the top of the waterfall. It was a flower garden with all sorts of colourful flowers. From above, it looked like a rainbow.The bird continued to fly upwards until it finally approached a tall and large tree. I looked up to see how tall it was. But until we flew very high, the top of the tree was not visible. I was reminded of the bird whose nest was also at the top of a tall tree.Finally, after the bird had flown so high that I couldn't even see the ground clearly, I saw a branch with a huge bird's nest at the end.The bird slowed down, and when it reached the nest, it stopped flapping its wings and put its feet on the edge of the nest. I climbed down from its back and surveyed the place.The nest was made of smaller branches and twigs, neatly and firmly arranged. The nest was also very large, perhaps as big as a simple house."Do you live alone?" I didn't see anyone in the nest. The bird nodded. Then it
I was relieved that, even though my arrow missed, it didn't hit Ruby. Ruby was screaming because the ocelots were attacking her eyes, and she was probably in pain. These ocelots, although small, were quite a nuisance. Especially when they attacked in groups."I should be more careful." I focused on Ruby again, looking for an opening to attack the ocelots.Ruby, looking angry, flapped her wings so hard that some of the ocelots released their bites. The little animals swarmed around Ruby again, this time making a very annoying noise.I jumped as my ears buzzed from the sound. It wasn't painful, but it was annoying. It felt like a lot of mosquitoes were buzzing around my head.Ruby screamed as if she were in pain. She even stopped attacking and covered her body with both wings.I tried to ignore the animal's voice and raised my bow again. I tried to concentrate after drawing my bow. Another ocelot was wiped out. I repeated this until all the ocelots were gone.Ruby returned to the nest,
Ruby looked sad as she was about to return to her nest. She had just taken me back to where we had met. She was crying and shedding tears again.I patted her head gently to calm her down. She really did look like a girl who did not want to be separated from her lover.Wait! That doesn't mean she thinks of me as her lover, does it?I shook my head, dismissing my absurd thoughts. Maybe she's acting like this because she thinks I'm her mother."Come and see me when I'm here."She took a few steps back and bowed, just like the first time we said goodbye. Then she flew away and didn't look back.As soon as Ruby left, I opened the gates to Smoky Hollow and returned to my world. I rested for a while before returning to the potion room. I took out all the sneezeweed clover I had brought with me.I spent the whole day in the room and made about 23 bottles of potions. This time, I didn't make many mistakes. The more you practice, the fewer mistakes you make. I even got used to measuring, althou
"I am sorry, Leon. I had to bring Jovian because he knows what we're doing. I didn't want him to get the wrong idea if we didn't bring him," Eren said quietly as I approached him in the kitchen. He was getting us some drinks and snacks."How did he know?" I whispered as I took some of the snacks Eren had brought."Jovian saw us searching the streets for infected people and followed us. At first, he was angry that we didn't involve him. But after I explained it to him, he finally understood."I looked at Jovian, who was busy with his device. No wonder his demeanour was colder than usual. He must be angry with me.Jovian and I followed Eren from behind. Although we walked hand in hand, he didn't speak to me at all, as if he thought I didn't exist. But I didn't really care.I put the snacks on the table near the entrance. There were already some drinks that Eren had brought.Eren gave us the white coats we had to wear in the lab.Eren sat down on the chair in front of the microscope. "I
