Chapitre 6: Chapter 6: Strange encounters.
Every day Anne the cold-faced maid brought Prometheus his lunch and dinner. Each time Prometheus swallowed his meal, which day after day became bigger and bigger.
Then Prometheus would take a nap and then use the Rank 0 spell he had created to heal his mana brain.
Sometimes Prometheus would get out of bed to stretch his legs but he didn't walk much and he never left his room.
So three weeks passed and Prometheus healed day after day. His mana brain had almost returned to 50% of its capacity and his body was in much better condition than when he had returned to life.
Prometheus was even starting to do some exercise. But nothing too physical, because his bones were still weak.
In addition, his little and the calm reassuring atmosphere of his room was very pleasant for Prometheus whose life was a real chao.
His mind was finally clear and he had managed to calm the anger he had felt after the revelation of Bob.
Prometeus was now focused on healing his mana brain and his physical condition which was disabling.
At first Prometheus was afraid that his benefactor would be unkind. But three weeks had passed and the only person Prometheus had met so far was Anne.
Prometheus was beginning to ask questions. Who saved me? Why doesn't he show himself? More importantly, why did he save me?
And unfortunately for him, Anne wasn't very chatty, she only said three things. Her name, the ingredients of the meal, and "When you get better you will meet the master. Now eat".
But today Prometheus stood up determined, he had never felt so well in a long time. Prometheus got out of his bed and began to stretch. He worked on his flexibility by touching his feet with his arms or doing other similar exercises.
Prometheus was resolved today he was going to ask Anne to meet his benefactor, Prometheus had no hidden attention, he was simply curious to know who had saved him and why he had not helped him in his previous life.
After finishing his stretch Prometheus tried to do some push-ups, but his arms began to hurt badly.
Prometheus ceased doing push-ups early because he was afraid of hurting himself. He stood up and looked at his reflection in the glass in front of him. His body was thin, he must have been about five feet tall, his whole body had taken a lot of weight, but he was still rather thin. In 3 weeks Prometheus had gained 5 centimeters thanks to his diet.
Prometheus was starting to get hungry when the bell indicating noon started ringing. He turned by reflex to the door which opened as soon as it did. Anne entered and was not surprised to see Prometheus standing.
For a week Prometheus had been in the habit of staying standing as soon as he was awake to strengthen his muscles, and the rest of the time he spent sleeping to regain his strength.
Anne brought the meal to Prometheus, who caught it. Then she made her way back to the door. But before she left the room Prometheus grabbed her by the shoulder. "I'm ready to meet your master."
Anne turned around and looked up and down at Prometheus, who was bare-chested. Then she said glibly.
"I think it too. After eating, go into the garden, the master should be there," and she turned around again to leave.
Prometheus, who was confused, asked her, "How will I recognize him? Without turning around, Anne replied, "You will know it when you see him, our master is a charismatic man. "
Prometheus knew very well that questioning Anne was useless, she was only saying the minimum.
He went to sit down on the bed and began to eat, at the same time he thought about what Anne had said.
"Our master is a charismatic man," what did she mean? Prometheus knew that Anne had given him a clue, but he did not yet know how to serve.
Prometheus searched during the meal, but he did not understand what the clue meant.
After he had finished eating, he put the plate on the bedside table before getting up. He put on the clean clothes that Anne had brought him a few days ago, then he opened the door. A fresh wind brushed against his face.
"Finally some wind that isn't the wind of this room." Prometheus looked around him, he was in an empty corridor. According to his observations he must have been in a castle or a mansion.
All around him the walls and the floor were made of smooth stones. The corridor must have been 10 meters long and there were 4 doors along the corridor. The rooms in the corridor had to be just like his own 5 meters long and wide.
Prometheus scratched his head and looked for a way out. There was a staircase going down, but none going up, it must have been on the top floor.
Prometheus set off and crossed the corridor, once he arrived in front of the staircase he found that the staircase was made of marble.
"The master of the house must be rich, if he can afford to pay for the stairs." Prometheus went down the stairs and when he reached the floor below he saw a group of people.
They all had a sword and were about 5'10" to 6'10" tall, all of them must have been in their twenties and thirties. The tallest of the group, a man with blond hair and a smile of naivety, turned to Prometheus. "The sleeper is finally awake."
his acolytes also turned to Prometheus and looked at him with interest.
Prometheus didn't move, he was checking the mana core of the group of people. Prometheus said to himself with surprise, 'strange i didn't know there were so many mana heart fighters in this city'
The blonde-haired man who thought that Prometheus was scared began to smile widely. "I don't eat. "
Prometheus understood that these men weren't harmful walked towards them. "I'm looking for your master. Anne the servant told me to meet him in the garden."
The man approached Prometheus and remained in front of him for a few seconds, Prometheus did not move and looked him in the eyes. 'This man is trying to test me.'
The man send an intimidating aura, but Prometheus did not move a muscle.
Suddenly the man started smiling again, "I like you, kid, you've got balls." He reached out his left hand to Prometheus. Then he turned to his comrades
"They're people are part of my team, I'll introduce you later, because if the master called you, you'd better not keep him waiting".
Brutus wave to the members of his team who left. Then Brutus turned to Prometheus with the same stupid smile. "Follow me, I'll lead you into the garden."
On the way Prometheus asked to Brutus some questions. Like where am I? Who is your master? Why am I here ? But as with Anne, he got no clear answer. On the contrary, everything Brutus explained to him was rather vague and incoherent.
After two minutes, Prometheus came to a conclusion. 'Brutus is a perfect idiot, I thought he was an intellectual at first sight'
Brutus, who had no idea what Prometheus was thinking, was rather proud of his conversation with Prometheus: 'That kid must think that I'm a super cool genius'
Brutus smiled more and more foolishly. Suddenly while Brutus explained to Prometheus that the earth was flat, a cold and grave voice called out to them.
"Where are you going, Brutus? Weren't you supposed to be training your team today? Don't tell me you forgot again? And who's this kid? »
Brutus turned to where the voice come from. Instead of answering the questions he laughed, "Nicholas my friend, how are you?
A man with black hair coming out of the shadow of a wall. His hair was black, his skin was pale, he was six feet tall and he was holding a bow in his right hand. He looked at Brutus with anger "I am not your friend and answer my questions. »
Prometheus was curious about who was Nicholas, so he sent out mana waves to observe Nicholas mana core.
Surprisingly Nicholas was also a mana heart fighter
'He too is a warrior with a heart of mana, I wonder who their leader is for having such powerful subordinates.
Brutus who did not want to make Nicholas angry repeated what Prometheus had told him mechanically
"I am looking for your master... uh our master, Anne the servant told me... uh told us to meet him in the garden".
Nicholas turned to Prometheus and looked at him with suspicion, then he started to walk to the closest stairs "Follow me, with a fool like Brutus you are sure to get lost".
Brutus, who had not understood Nicholas' remark, replied, "It is true the red mansion is very big"
Nicholas and Prometheus sighed and thought at the same time 'what a happy fool'.
On the way Prometheus tried his luck and asked the same questions that he had asked Anne and Brutus to Nicholas. But unfortunately he didn't get any answer.
Either Nicolas' answers contained too many unnecessary details, too many old-fashioned puns and in the end did not answer the question.
Or instead Nicolas became suspicious and asked Prometheus questions instead of answering his question. After 5 minutes of conversation Prometheus came to a conclusion.
'Nicholas thinks too much, either his answers are too long and he gets lost between useless details and bad puns, or instead he gets suspicious and asks questions instead of answering.
I have to behave more like a child in front of Nicholas, this man can be dangerous'.
Prometheus dropped the idea of getting answers to his questions and continued his conversation with Brutus and Nicholas, which was giving him a tour of the building called the red mansion.
After about 20 minutes he finally arrived in the garden after making countless detours. Because of Brutus wanted to show him something funny or because Nicholas wanted to show him some essential mansion pieces.
Prometheus was getting tired of his guides when suddenly a vaguely familiar voice resounded behind him.
"What are you doing in the garden with that young man?"
Suddenly Brutus and Nicholas jumped, Anne was behind them.
Brutus and Nicholas started stuttering, "Uhhh... he... he wanted me to show him some funny stuff"
"Yes... yes Brutus is right, he wanted a visit to the red mansion"
Anne, who had a cold and inexpressive face, answered quietly.
"Brutus, aren't you supposed to be training your team?"
Nicholas cut it off, "That's what I told him".
Anne turned to Nicholas. " And you, Nicholas, aren't you supposed to be on guard on the sixth floor? Nicholas, I remind you that you are the chief's right-hand men, if you don't do your job, who will?... Me?"
Strangely enough, Anne began to smile in a corner. Brutus and Nicholas shivered before leaving, walking as fast as they could.
Prometheus looked at the scene in incredulity 'Who is this woman, I spent three weeks seeing only her, yet I could never have imagined she would frighten two warriors with mana heart'
Prometheus tried to observe Anne's mana core, but what he saw made him jump. 'Holy shit, that's impossible'.
Anne was in fact a mana blood fighter which was the rank above the mana heart fighter
(PS: in comparison a mana heart fighter is equal to a wizard, and a mana blood fighter is equal to a mage.... yes she is very strong)
Anne approached Prometheus who instinctively backed away. Her smile had disappeared but her eyes were still as cold as ever.
"Follow me, I will lead you to the master. "
Prometheus did not ask the slightest question on the way and remained quiet.
