Dream and the others walked over to the East gate to exit the city.Once they had exited, they found a place around a mile away where nobody was watching and Dream summoned out his jeep.It was a Jeep Wrangler and it also had a bit of trunk space. Perfect for four people and getting through rough terrain.Once he summoned it out, he got in the driver's seat and told everyone else to hop in. Although that may have been expecting too much.Iris looked at him in confusion."Uhh. How do we get in?" (Iris)"Right. Forgot you guys are cavemen." (Dream)Dream got back out and showed them how to open and close doors as well as the seats they needed to sit it."It's a carriage basically. Just open the door and sit in it like the helicopter." (Dream)"Cool." (Iris)"There's two seats in the back and two in the front. Riddick you get shotgun." (Dream)"Shotgun?" (Riddick)"Just come here." (Dream)Dream put Riddick in the passenger and the girls in the back. He didn't bother buckling them in.On
"So Scarlet, what're your skills?" (Dream)Dream looked towards Iris so she could give her answer. Besides [Devour] and some fire magic, he didn't know anything else."I have [Fire Manipulation], [Devour], and [Basic Air Magic]. I also have [Close Combat Mastery] and [Expanded Stomach], which goes with my devour skill.""...So that's why you eat so much. And Fire manipulation? So you have control over fire and can create it?""Ya pretty much. Though more fire and precise control costs more mana.""...Then why did you say you have no ranged abilities?! You can throw fire lances like Luna, or spew out fire like a flammenwerfer!""I-I have no idea what that is. But I don't have any ranged because fire is hard to control! Luna's water is easy! I barely know how to create a blade of it by my hand! That's why I said I was melee. It's just easier for me to slash and burn..."Iris turned her head away in embarrassment from Dream's scrutinizing gaze. Meanwhile, Dream could already figure out th
Dream didn't have to go very far before he started sensing enemies.At first, he came across groups of 10 -20 crawlers. But as he kept exploring, more and more started showing up.This wasn't too much of a problem as he had [Erase Presence] which kept him hidden. But when he began the fight, he always had to start running as they chased him.The crawlers had surprisingly good senses. They could pick up on any movement within 100 meters of them. So whenever Dream fired a round, his stealth was dampened which alerted the crawlers to him. He also couldn't hide the effects his body had on the grass and leaves when he touched it while moving.Not only that, but running away was very tiring. He knew he couldn't keep it up so he started using hit and run tactics.First he would toss out a flashbang, which worked very well, and then shot as many as possible. He would keep throwing them out until the crawlers scattered. By that time though, many would be dead and he just had to chase down any r
When Dream woke up, it was already daylight out.*yawwnnn*A yawn graced the room as Dream sat up while rubbing his eyes. He was feeling...surprisingly good?"Everything is so clear...Like my senses are better. What happened?"[Since you worked your brain so hard, it recovered and became stronger. Like a muscle.]"Nice! I do indeed feel fresh. It's already daytime, I imagine that I overslept a little."[If a little means for a whole day and night then yes, I guess you did too.]"That long?!"[It has been 33 hours since you fell asleep.]"....Damn. Alright, you know where everyone is?"[The connection with Luna points to a nearby restaurant. They're probably eating breakfast since you couldn't make it.]"Ok. I guess I'll go join them"Dream hopped out of bed and cleaned himself up before leaving the hotel.After walking down a street, Dream saw the restaurant they were in. He walked up to the door and entered. When he did, he saw many people looking towards a specific table. Dream knew
"Did you guys level up?" (Dream)"No." x2Neither of the girls leveled up. Though they got most of the experience, it was also split."If we can kill several more of these, we should be good." (Dream)"Ya. But they're pretty far apart. We only found these two after so long." (Iris)Dream nodded at that. Going at this rate, they might barely be able to get their classes before night falls."Oh well. Luna, take this knife and if you could skin the bears, please. We still need the hide." (Dream)"No problem." (Luna)Luna took the knife Dream gave her and went to work on the bears. Iris also helped her.As they were doing that, Dream walked over to the bear he shot. He wanted to check something.When he shot the bear, he actually noticed that there was no brain splatter. This could only mean one thing.Dream bent down and inspected the bear's head."Sure enough. I only see an entry wound. No exit. So even this railgun couldn't punch through the skull entirely. Though...This side of the sk
*Thud**Cough*Dream hit the floor on his back with a heavy thud. This only served to intensify the pain from his wounds as well as vomit some blood that was in his stomach.'Fuck! It hurts... Breathing Hurts! I can't move my arm... Sophia? How bad is it?'[...The wounds are lethal. Multiple arteries have been cut inside your abdomen. The axillary artery in your collar has been totally severed. You need immediate attention from either Riddick or Luna. 18% of total blood volume has been lost and rising by the second.]Sophia gave it to him straight. In fact, she was already working to stop the flow of blood in his body. Every little thing she could do to prolong his survival.Unfortunately, the ones he needed help from couldn't act so quickly."D-Dream? Dream?! W-What happened?!" (Luna)Luna stuttered as she was still shocked by what happened. Dream had hardly left her for several seconds before he was tossed on the ground in a bloody mess. Did he just walk up to the bear and get stabb
It took 10 days before Dream could finally get on his feet.Such a fast recovery would be unheard of on Earth, but he isn't on earth. To give a reference, people who donate blood give about 10% of their blood volume, which takes several weeks to recover from before you can donate again.Dream had lost over 60% of his blood volume, but with Sophia, good food, and his high vitality, he was able to get the majority back in 10 days. He wasn't totally 100%, but he could live normally. Which he gladly did.Dream hated the fact that he needed to be taken care of. But this also let him know just how good the girls were to him.They were by his side every day. They didn't even go hunting. He had told them that they should get their classes already, but they refused. They would just stay on his bed, sometimes in their fox form, and cuddle. It would have been heavenly if he wasn't paralyzed.They didn't want to leave him. He really felt fuzzy at that thought.But the morning when he recovered, h
While the girls were thinking about their choices, Dream spoke to Riddick."There's only one problem I can see right now. They haven't used any weapons yet. Wouldn't it be good for them to do that? The difference a weapon can make is big. Though I don't doubt their magical abilities, it would still be good for them." (Dream)"That is true. But at the same time, in Iris' case, it could be worse instead to choose something like swordsman instead of fire mage. It was the same problem I had with you wanting to take on multiple specialties. If they divide their abilities and class, it can greatly hinder them, as a class can greatly amplify your abilities, if chosen correctly." (Riddick)"Very true." (Dream)Dream nodded at that reasoning. They could always learn to use a weapon as a supplement to their core abilities as well. So they wouldn't need to choose a class for it. Not that they had a choice right now either way.The two men sat there for several minutes in silence. Though they wer
