The next day arrived, after taking Reno and Rena to school and visiting Susan who was still in the hospital.
"So, Uncle and Aunt's house is still being renovated?"
"Still, for the time being we may still be living in your apartment, if you don't mind."
"I don't mind at all. I hope you don't mess with all my stuff, especially in my room!"
His threatening words, made me not dare to look at him. Indeed, when me and the Twins again lived in his apartment, I wanted to stay in the boarding house for a few days while our house was renovated, but Susan clean hard wants us to stay in her apartment while she's still in the hospital.
"Don't worry, where might I do such a thing," said I who still did not dare to look at him. "Death me! Yesterday the Twins were playing around there and accidentally dropped some stuff in Susan's room. Where else is her favorite perfume collection again."
I could only sigh heavily at the thought of that, Susan who looked in astonishment and smiled faintly.
"It looks like it's a mess in there, I was expecting it anyway. Given how active the Twins are while playing, at least it's better than having my house empty for a few days while I'm still here" Susan thought as she shook her head slowly. "So you're going to the dungeon again?"
"Hm? For the time being I'm not hunting, the association asked me to pick up some new hunting equipment at PT. Hanjar, he said this is the initial dependency for the S-Rank of the government and association."
"so yeah. All right then, go, anyways your looking time is up."
I could only smile seeing that Susan was well, unlike yesterday - she had to lie down long enough for her recovery. I've heard from Mr. Adrian that he said, Susan is currently experiencing "Corruption Soul" which is usually experienced by Aura/Chi users.
The use of Mana and Aura is very different, where when someone uses his Mana until he can no longer use it or runs out, then automatically appears "Heart Shield" which prevents Mana users to die.
While Aura users do not have any protector in them. Because basically the Aura comes from within the human being itself, and the energy emitted by the Aura comes from the human soul. How much Aura is produced in the human body then how pure his soul is, no wonder why there are many ascetics who first focus more on meditating for the peace of his soul.
There is also energy produced by the human soul to maintain its body, and it has happened since human birth which is commonly called Aura. If any human uses an Aura beyond its normal capacity or limits, then in exchange for losing much of its Aura - then its pay is its soul to be sacrificed as the energy used.
I had already sensed where I could not move at all while using my Aura continuously non-stop, plus entering the imperfect Heredis mode without the help of the system really threatens my life at any time. But I survived thanks to Aran who came to help me directly.
All the knowledge Aran gave me that, there are many ways to prevent your life energy from diminishing or experiencing "Corruption Soul". Aura can be used as a self-recovery if used slowly and can make users long and healthy life always.
In my head there is one martial art that belongs to Aran that focuses on healing, willing it's yourself and others even animals. During the use of his Chi within normal limits and do not force themselves when the user has problems in him.
"But Susan's case was at least not so bad that it had to threaten her life. But, still, he had to accept Aura's recovery step by step, and the one who only did this recovery, only then did Adrian do it to Susan, should I do it too?"
As Phobetor said, a feeling of kindness filled with doubt will only hurt people and so will you. Remembering his words made me even more worried about my own abilities.
Susan noticed my dreamy gaze.
"Hey, don't you have to go?"
Hearing that I was immediately shocked and woke up from my thoughts.
"Sorry, I was daydreaming. How are you doing now?"
Susan realized what I had just daydreamed about and it seemed like she was uncomfortable making those closest to her always worry about her.
"Don't worry, I'm off right now. Mr. Adrian said, for some time I will not be able to use Aura, because it will be very problematic if I use it again."
"Good," I said, looking at Susan closely.
Susan realized being stared at by me kept asking directly :
"From now on you keep thinking about something, let's say it's weighing you down a lot."
I looked up and smiled.
"Actually I want to help you recover."
"Can you?" Ask Susan who doesn't believe.
"It can, but maybe restoring your Aura is not as good as Mr. Adrian when recovering you. But at least I can reduce the bit of burden you're going through."
"Are you able to use Aura?"
"Of course you can, look..."
I immediately showed my Aura and Susan was surprised to see it. He couldn't believe that I could use Aura just like him.
"When did you learn it?"
"At that time Mr. Adrian was again hospitalized and he asked me to come to his room, it turns out he wanted to teach me how to use Aura."
"Oh that time yes, indeed that time I also visited his room and he asked me about your whereabouts, I didn't think he would teach you Aura directly."
"I didn't expect it either. All right, let's get started."
"Originally you know, recovering someone is a lot harder than recovering yourself. Mr. Adrian said, when recovering someone with Aura, then the Aura user focus, otherwise you will receive the back effect of your patient's pain."
"I've tried it several times on injured animals, at that time trying to heal the legs of injured kittens. During the healing process, my focus was interrupted due to a minor thing and therefore I immediately accepted the pain of my leg, exactly what the cat was experiencing."
This Aura healing technique was already like a magnet, all had to be balanced so that both parties could pull a profit to achieve it.
"If you've tried it a few times, then I trust you."
Susan immediately lay on her back on her bed and I advanced towards her head while holding her forehead.
"I did healing on the cat, that time without using Aran's technique. This time I will use the technique, because I already feel the side effects of this healing," thought I who tried to calm down. "Huifu martial art, first move..."
...The spring breeze...
Wussh...!
Aura energy was instantly emitted from my body, Susan was shocked to feel the flow of this energy had entered her body.
"It felt very different when Mr. Adrian put in his Aura. This feeling is like when I'm enjoying my lunch time in the sunshine in the cool breeze."
My aura continued to flow out, the sensation was the same as I felt when Aran drained his Aura to me. I remembered that feeling and knew how to flow this Aura to someone.
After a while, it only takes 2 minutes for this recovery. Unlike what Mr. Adrian did, he could have done this recovery to Susan longer than me.
"*Wush*..."
I exhaled and released my hand from Susan's head.
"How do you feel..., hm?"
When she wanted to ask her how she was, Susan fell asleep. I was astonished to see this, did this technique work or not? But looking at the circumstances it seems to be working.
I could only be relieved to see her doing fine without experiencing the pain for too long.
"Rest." Gently rubbed his head, then looked the other way. "Make sure you're always looking after her."
Sulastri and Sukmawati nodded, I've ordered them to keep Susan always so I can calm down while busy strengthening myself.
After visiting Susan, I went straight to PT. The promised hanjar.
Upon arriving there, I was immediately welcomed by the company's servants. Maybe because I am a pillar of a new country so that services like this are highly recommended for high rank.
"I didn't think you'd come to our place."
"Can I sell my things?"
"Of course it could be Sir, as long as the item you are willing to sell is of very high quality."
"That's it."
I was immediately brought in by the servant, even when everyone was watching me. Since I am a new S-Rank, it is no wonder this news spread so quickly. Not a few people who saw me this came directly to me, there were many kinds of requests ranging from interviews, guild entrance requests, as well as cooperation in conducting Raid in high rank dungeons.
As this was getting troublesome, deftly all the servants in this company appeared and guided myself into the special room.
"Sorry sir, we put you into a room like this. But don't worry, once everything's ready, then we'll take you straight to our storage room."
"It's okay, I don't want to linger here. So, I want to sell everything right here and the rest of you set the price for yourself."
This servant looked confused to see me, the same look as the nurse in the hospital. They're trying to figure out where I'm carrying it.
"I'm sorry if I'm presumptuous, can we see what kind of stuff it is?"
I just sighed and raised my hand while flicking my finger.
The plaques!
Brakes...
"!"
The servant was surprised to see all the loot of this dungeon that suddenly emerged from the ceiling of my hand.
"This is all I want to sell. I don't know what to do with all this junk, maybe a company like yours really needs stuff like this."
The waiter was still shocked to see all this, other than seeing this stuff - he was also surprised at my ability.
"Can you wait a minute. I'll call my team first to make sure of all this stuff."
"Please."
The waiter immediately made a call for his team, while he was busy calling someone. I asked some of The Arcana to lurk around in the PT. Hedge by following some people. It was obvious that upon entering here, all the servants of this company were very attentive to me strictly. As if something was hidden.
"My master..."
"Say."
Belial contacted me directly via telepathy, apparently finding something.
"I feel something strange in this room."
"What's that?"
"I don't know how to describe it, but it feels like this energy is just like yours, my Lord."
Hearing that I was shocked in silence, did Belial feel the presence of "They" here?
"Are you sure you feel that energy?"
"That's right, my lord, I'm now in a room filled with as much energy as you are, it's just very small."
Hearing this information, it seems that "They" are not here yet. Just why is there the same energy as me? Perhaps Belial felt the exact same energy that Agus felt when he saw the "Sacred Artifact".
I asked Belial to scout deeper into the room, maybe he found something important there. Given why I was put here, surely they were all trying to hide something from S-Rank like me.
"Sorry to keep you waiting for a long time. Now our team will come here."
"Well, can I go out now. I want to look around at the stuff you're selling, maybe there's something I need."
"Oh, yes, yes, let me guide you." It seemed that this servant was very excited when it came to the purchase of their items.
"One more thing..."
"?"
"If you're cheating on my stuff, you should already know what's going on!"
I elicited a temporary hostile intent at the servant, and the servant was extremely shocked and dared not look at me who was emitting powerful energy.
"I-it's not.. It won't be Master! We would never do that, let alone someone like you!"
The two of us headed straight for a room of items that we wanted to sell. I saw all there were many quality items with great yany magic energy.
"Let me introduce our stuff. All of these items had been well crafted from the highly qualified materials of the Rank-A dungeon. With Rank-A monster materials and Mana Rank-A Crystals..."
This servant introduced the eel as well as the goodness of their belongings. I noticed all these items with the help of the system, it seems that the system's view of these items is much different from theirs.
[Sliced Glorios
Rate : ☆☆☆
A sword made from a very high quality material.
STR :20 VIT: 10.]
"You seem to have very good eyes. This is one of our best swords and it costs 1 billion RP."
"1 billion!"
I was very surprised to hear the hargany, no wonder the dagger I bought for 1 million at that time had no price at all with this one. But looking at the description of the system does not seem to be wrong, their handmade weapons are indeed very good.
"Is there an Orb for witches?"
"Orb yes, there is, there is. Here come with me."
We walked towards the next room and there seemed to be a lot of magic equipment inside. I noticed all the items and it was great to see.
"Is there an Orb to strengthen a magic element?"
"Strengthen elements?"
"Why, isn't there?"
"No, quite the opposite. The goods are there and they are very expensive considering the production is very long."
The servant led me towards a box and inside were many quality Orbs. I'm just amazed to see it.
"I want two, please get me that type of water and land."
"Sorry, don't you want to know the price first?"
"How many?"
"For each Orb this will be valued at 2.5 billion RP."
"That means I have to pay 5 billion for both," I thought, who still could not believe in the ease of buying the sultan's things that I thought I would never buy. "If the price is like that, are all the items I've sold not enough?"
"For now our team is trying to verify all prices of your goods, given that your loot is very high quality. So the chances of the results you get will exceed what you buy now. But if you still want these two Orbs, then I will put in the list of temporary orders so that no one can take them," said the waiter kindly. "When I serve guests like that again, maybe I'll get promoted for selling a lot of company's expensive stuff."
His smile, the smile of someone who wants to ride a quick promotion. Meaningful friendly waiters are common to any company.
I continued to look through all the items and hope there are items I can take again.
"The rest is all very bad. Compared to the Shop system, none of these items are interesting."
Since the system did not sell the Orb I wanted, then I decided to manually purchase the item here. Because the Soul Points I earned had to be saved, considering the prices of the items the system sold were not much different from the ones here.
"I want to see your potions."
"Oh, here, let me drop off."
I was escorted to a special room potion, when I entered I was wide-eyed to see it. Because there are many witches as well as some other Awakened people here who want to buy potions.
"Hey, look, that's not the guy on TV."
"Yes, that's the guy."
I guess I can't avoid all these gazes, because I've already looked through all the results of their potions.
"Very different..."
"Hm? What's the matter Sir, what potion do you want?"
"Is there a potion that has instant recovery?"
Hearing that, this servant seemed to be very surprised. I guess here has not provided potions that are sold like a system.
"I'm sorry about that, sir, at this time such a potion does not exist. If there is then we will choose it auctioned instead of selling it normally. But, there are potions that can cure everything..."
"And what kind of potion is that?"
"Elixir."
Hearing that name seems like everyone knows the quality of the potion. Given in video games, this kind of potion has a high rarity to get.
"A year ago in Germany, someone managed to conquer a Rank-A dungeon and managed to get two elixir potions. Many countries are trying to get it and sell at prices that are hard to calculate."
It seems that potions are like the eternal life of everyone, considering that the production of potions is now very much and certainly very profitable.
"If you don't mind, can you check out this potion."
I brought up a 20% HP potion that was 5 milliseconds in size and gave the waiter away. This servant looked at the potion carefully and asked my permission to check this potion.
As this potion was poured in a container filled with clear water that contained abundant Mana energy within.
Bing!
"?!"
"What's going on?!"
"I-this is.it's impossible...!"
"Hm?" I only raised both of my eyebrows in surprise at their reaction.
Crangs!
Suddenly the container broke, he said this container was made of Rank-A water-type monster leather material that was very skilled in Mana sensors.
"Master! Where did you get this potion?"
"I got it upon entering the Hidden dungeon a few years ago."
"If you don't mind, do you still have that potion again?"
"On that. I still have some..."
I instantly brought up four 20% HP Potions and gave them to them.
"Don't you mind selling it to us. No, we'll auction it to you."
I was still confused by their reaction and asked about this potion.
"What happened to this potion?"
"Don't you know this potion?"
I just shook my head.
"This is elixir," the waiter replied and left everyone in the room very surprised. "The instant healing potion you're looking for is elixir."
"Therefore I look for potions that have an effect like this potion because I have drunk it several times, but who would if only elixir alone had such an effect," I said. "This is the cheapest potion I buy in the Shop."
Since Agus asked me not to draw too much attention, I decided to auction off the four potions. When else could a lot of money quickly and the waiter was so happy to receive it and asked his team to come here immediately, to pick up this gift item.
Since this tense atmosphere was making me tired, I asked this servant to take me out of this place. But before getting out of here, this waiter took me to their VIP room and asked me to wait because my money would be coming soon, along with the two Orbs as well.
"So calm at last."
While resting in this luxurious room, Belial contacted me again.
"What's wrong?"
"My master, I made it in and this energy is getting more and more pronounced and again they're there's so much."
"What do you mean?"
"I saw there were many naked humans filled with great energy, but they all seemed to be dead. Strange, when it looks dead but why do I feel the existence of life there?"
I was confused to hear Belial's explanation and asked him to describe everything clearly.
"So they're in a state between life and death?"
"You could say so, sir."
It reminds me of Aran's words about someone caught between life and death.
"And again, I saw a strange image on their bodies, some kind of tattoo."
"Tattoo..."
Belial continued to describe the situation there and after getting a clear picture, it turned out that this was an experiment using humans. An inhumane act that made me angry to know.
"Is there anything else there?"
"For now that's all I can tell you. Oh yes, they just mentioned a name from earlier."
"And what's her name?"
"They said 'Stigma'."
The deg!
Hearing that made me very shocked, did not expect if a project called "Stigma" turned out to do this cruel thing. And again...
"Mother.so all this time."
Unbelieving the fact that I heard this, my tears were dripping from not expecting my parents to do something like this.
"Belial, come back."
"Good."
I'm still drowning in this fact and trying to figure out why you're doing this.
"If you recall that time, Father and Mother looked very scared of something and after leaving, they immediately had an accident and their bodies were not found at all."
Quiet and silent, for thinking about what action to do now.
Bush...!
The dark energy from my body was emanating strongly in this room, because a guess I didn't want to think of happened to them.
"If his body is not found, then there is a possibility that the bodies of my parents are already in their experimental section!"
My energy was getting out and inexplicably it felt very calm, like a cold wind that pierced through the skin slowly but deathly.
"Must I destroy this place now?"
