Apocalypse Monster
Chapter 039: Continuing the Journey
It didn't take long for Ayumi to build a resting place on the roof of the building. Natan had also already brought in a powerless monster with twice the number of Skeleton Knights, with a level of sixties.
The monster that the Skeleton Knight had brought was the Mountain Wolf, which should not have appeared in the city, yet somehow could be here.
"Sister, kill this monster." Natan handed Vely a sharp military knife. He could have lent him a gun, but it was too easy, not being able to feel the sensation of hurting with his hands.
Vely received the knife that was in Natan's hand, then looked at the monsters lying on the roof. Killing small chickens for food has never been, but not with sharp-fanged monsters.
Vely calmed his breathing, then crouched down while stabbing the head of the Mountain Wolf.
Blood splashed onto his face and hands while killing monsters. He almost cried but he held on, trying to stay in front of Ayumi and Erina.
Natan smiled faintly looking at Vely who killed the gray-colored Mountain Wolf. "I will continue to bring monsters until your level reaches one hundred."
Vely was stunned with his mouth wide open, then nodded slowly. A faint smile was seen on his face, but his heart was screaming and crying from having to constantly kill the monsters he was carrying.
Once every three minutes, the Skeleton Knight would come carrying monsters that lost limbs to escape and attack.
Natan is eager to resurrect the two Skeletons again, but he has not yet gotten what he wants. At least he was looking for Skeleton Archer and Mage, to add to the current attack power of the Armonia Guild.
A dozen minutes had passed since Vely killed the monster. Finally he asked to rest because he could no longer kill more. He was completely exhausted and wanted to rest, because while at the Military Base, he could not rest in peace.
One of the reasons he could not calm down, was because he did not want to become a human being who was killed and used as a foodstuff.
"Alright, Brother can rest. We will continue on again, then, I will invite Big Brother to join the Armonia Guild." Natan helps Vely to stand up, then opens the interface screen to invite Velg into the Guild.
"Hem?" Natan raised next to his eyebrows upon seeing the incremental change in the stats of Vely, not because of Status Points, but rather because of joining the Armonia Guild.
Natan herself was already able to see the information of Vely more fully than before. Maybe this is because of trust, but after reaching the maximum level, there is no need for trust, he will be able to see all the information.
But Natan chose to have Vely show it straight away, as there were some things that could not be seen, such as the number of Skill Points needed to level up the skill.

The White Mage? The raise?
Ayumi and Erina came over, looking at the interface screen of Vely's.
"Good." Vely gave a small nod and distributed the Point Skill to raise the Raise Skill to the mid level, and left the Point Skill for the abilities he gained later.
Vely also distributes his Status Points to improve stats, after getting further explanations and memories of the game he once played.
Ayumi turned her attention from Vely's interface screen towards Natan while tugging at the cloak cloth. "Sister, Ayu has built a hot spring, and has separated it into two rooms."
Natan looked back to the left and looked at Ayumi. "Thank you." He smiled warmly and gently rubbed the top of Ayumi's head.
Ayumi closed her eyes as she chuckled lightly enjoying the gentle swipe from Natan's hand.
"Mandi!?" Vely shouted in surprise when he heard the hot pool. He hadn't had a bath in a long time, and had forgotten the last time he cleaned himself.
Natan smiled faintly and entered a different room to soak in the hot water. He didn't have to worry about guarding, as it had Kuro and the 14 Skeleton Knights.

Next Day
Natan woke up from her sleep and opened her eyes slowly. With both hands touching the mattress, he supported his body to sit while stretching his hands wide.
His sleep was extremely deep, although Mapping caught hundreds of monsters besieging the house where they were resting at the moment.
Natan stood up from her bed and stored it into the Inventory Guild, then walked out of the minimalist house. He saw a lot of monsters under the house, which was a Zombie Soldier.
"Skeleton, disconnect their legs and hands, and remove the irritating tongue. Then take them up."
The Skeleton Knight went back to his knees before doing his job.
Vely who woke up late because he slept very well, was surprised when he came out to see that there were already many monsters lying down. Moreover, that monster was an extremely terrifying and disgusting Zombie.
Although it was very disgusting and Vely did not like it, he still had to kill to not be a burden. Moreover, he was the lowest-leveled Player in the Armonia Guild, he had also been told not to tell the level to others, so as not to be hunted by the Player Killer.
"Sister, the monsters here are not too many. We fought a dozen thousand monsters before." Nathan approached the weakly seated Vely and his hands hung helplessly. "Congratulations, for having already made it to level ninety." He gently rubbed the top of Vely's head.
Vely looked up at Natan. "Don't treat your Teacher and Brother like a child" he said irritatedly with bulging cheeks.
Natan chuckled as she looked at the irritated Vely, and did not stop the movement of her hand that was playing Vely's hair.
After being satisfied enough, Natan changed by playing the top of Ayumi and Erina's head. Both of his sisters were very happy when their heads were rubbed, especially when they were asleep.
Vely tidied up her messy hair while looking at Ayumi and Erina who were sleeping on Natan's thigh. "I've been thinking about it since yesterday, are those two the younger sisters you told me about first? Which have been separated for a long time?"
"Yes, I raised the level as high as possible because of the two of them. I want to protect both of them, because they are among the reasons why I struggle," replied Natan smiling warmly at Ayumi and Erina.
Natan started telling me about her reunion with Ayumi and Erina a month ago, where they were both very sad. Almost killed with an attacking disease.
When Vely heard it, he began to shed tears. As a psychologist, of course, he understood very well about the pain that both little girls lived. After all, he who had grown up was almost insane due to his torment at the Military Base.
"Three more hours we will continue the journey, and at six in the afternoon, we will rest. Because at night, monsters will be more sensitive and strong. It is not recommended to fight it, even though our level is quite high," said Natan who still gives Ayumi and Erina sleep on her thighs.
Vely nodded his head, and opened the interface screen to distribute the Status Points he could, as well as the Skill Points to improve the abilities he had just purchased from the NPC Shop.
Time continued to run and sunlight was right on them, indicating that it had entered mid-day.
Natan lightly patted the backs of her sisters to wake them both up. "Both of you, get up, we're leaving now."
"Fue?" Ayumi opened her eyes slowly and saw water flowing from the corner of her lips, which splashed Natan's pants.
"Let's go." Natan took out two clean handkerchiefs and cleaned both of their faces.
Natan stood up and destroyed the building used as a resting place, after cleaning the faces of Ayumi and Erina. The reason why he destroyed the residence was to eliminate any traces, they did not want this to be known, let alone the fact about them having an enormous supply of food.
"The three of you went up on Kuro's back."
Kuro's body is now able to carry four adults, but Natan chooses to walk. At least when Kuro gets bigger again, then he will join there.
Fortunately, Kuro's bone structure is perfect for riding, unlike elephants which are not suitable and very dangerous for the elephant itself.
