I smile seeing panda threateningly stand in front of her partner defending her, from the monster action I can see that their bond is very strong.
I didn't take a good look at the cave ever since I entered, it is quite big, its area about four a hundred feet in oval shape
There is a small stream of underground water flowing through the cave and the cave had a natural source of light from the crystal above the cave.
This cave is perfect for one life if one smoothed out the jagged floor of the cave. Seeing she wouldn't wake for at least one hour.
I put my backpack down and laid out the camp after finding a smooth surface.
I have been feeling sweaty since yesterday since the cave had a stream of fresh water, I should enjoy well and take a bath.
There is small, all natural partition of rock by the stream which good for privacy.
As I come out of the stream, feeling fresh I felt the sharp gaze on me, I smiled seeing little monster taking its job seriously.
"Chew chew!" Ashlyn chirped saying she is feeling hungry and make food for quickly.
"Ok! I'll make now." I am also feeling very hungry seeing today we only ate it once and that is at early morning.
I brought out cooking utensils and cooking material out camp and started preparing food.
I enlarge the pan to large size seeing, I am making food for four people.
I only took monster parts of Corporal stage monster and I am really excited to taste the meat of the corporal grade monster but I am taking caution cooking it.
I am only using a few pieces of heart while rest is normal meat of Corporal Grade monster.
I've read many times that people got fatally injured and die by eating High energy food.
I felt the gaze of two monsters staring at the pan hungrily as I am cooking when I looked at the panda monster, I even saw saliva dripping from its mouth.
The food is started to smell really good even I felt ravenous as I see meat in the pan. This will be my first time tasting the meat of Corporal grade monster.
I noticed the movement behind my back when I looked up, I saw she had woken up, some color comes back on her skin as she looked much better than earlier.
''How are you feeling?" I asked while stirring the pan, "Much better, thank you for the potion." she said.
"It's nothing," I replied and we stayed silent for while in a quiet comfortable environment.
"When did you entered this realm? How come you were so injured?" I asked I saw the carcasses of monsters she fought earlier and seeing she is at the peak of Specialist grade, I don't think the monster she fought earlier can injure her this much.
I have seen her fight many times in the training facility and she has easily beaten those at the same level as her.
Those two monster cant injure her this much, despite being stronger than the normal monsters, she must have been injured by some other monster earlier.
She took a big sigh before answering my question, "I had taken the mission of information collection from Adventures guild yesterday morning because the reward was high,"
"I walking toward green hills from near town when I suddenly find myself a completely different place." She said.
"Not even five minutes in this realm, I was attacked by a corporal level monster, if it was normal initial level monster, I would kill it or at least would have fatally injured it but that monster way too strong for me to even injure." she shuddered as said this, I can totally understand her sentiment.
In the back home, I could easily kill peak Private stage monster with one swing but here, it took me more than one hour to kill it and there is no question about specialist stage monster, I have hidden and changed my way many times after seeing the Specialist stage monsters.
"I've come across many Corporal grade monsters on the way here while running from I kept eating injured, I've had many healing potions with but they all used in healing my injuries, I even lost my backpack while running from monsters." She said.
"Did you met any people from westblood or central continent," I asked, her face saddened as she heard my question.
"I did not see any people from westblood but I've seen many bodies on my way, I even recognized one boy, he used to live in our building," she replied.
Not many people were lucky as is, I can consider myself lucky one as I entered the wasteland, not the forest.
As if remembering something, she asked me about me it, "What are people from Central Continent, you just mentioned?" She asked.
I told her what occurred in the morning today, to spotting them and watching them killing Corporal level monsters with ease.
She had shocked expression on her face when heard this, she couldn't come to her senses for a while.
"Are you telling the truth?" she asked in a serious voice, her voice clearly stating that she had a hard time believing this.
''All I said the truth, the meat that I cooking now is from the corporal level monster that they had killed," I said and cut fire as dinner is ready.
"I have an extra battle suit in the back, I can give you if you want?" I said after looking her tattered suit.
I always keep 2 extra battle suit whenever I go to hunting and this time I was out of two to three days and for that I pack extra one making them three.
"Ok," she said after some thinking, I quickly took out a battle suit from my backpack, these battle suits are specially made for outdoor training so take half of the space of normal battle suit.
"I am Rhea by the way!" she introduces herself as I giving her my battle suit.
"Micheal., iIsaid as I gave her my battle suit she walked toward the water stream to bath, she did not go alone, her monster also walks behind to protect her from prying eyes.
Her, the whole body is laced with dried blood, she must have been feeling terrible feeling all blood and sweat dried around her body.
''Chew Chew!" Ashlyn protested as I served her portion smaller than she usually eats.
"It's Corporal Grade monsters meat Ashlyn, you will not able to eat it fully," I said.
"Chew chew!" she chirps in protest again saying she doesn't care, she will eat a regular portion that she eats daily.
''You glutton! first, you finish this plate and if you still feel hungry after eating it, I will give you more." I said exasperatedly.
"Chew chew chew!" she chirped again asking why are they getting bigger portion than her, "Because they are at Specialist Grade when you evolve in Specialist Grade, you will also get more food," I said.
"Chuckle!" I heard a chuckle from behind, it Rhea who came out after taking a bath.
She looked very beautiful with black eyes and hair and had a certain charm about her that attracts people to her.
All her outer injuries mostly healed just marks are remaining, they will be healed by the next morning.
She must have listened to our conversation from behind, I just smiled awkwardly at her seeing getting a laugh out of her banter.
"Come sit! dinner is ready," I said as I gave them their plates, just as I was giving them plates, Rhea's panda monster took the plate with such nimbleness that I hadn't thought possible with such size.
It took a plate from my hand started to eat speedily, its speed is comparable to Ashlyn.
"Hahaha" we both started to laugh seeing it eating like, "Deedee eat slowly, food is not going anywhere," Rhea advises to her monster but it didn't listen.
I got a little surprised knowing this panda is female, I thought it was male all along.
When I looked beside me, I saw Ashlyn already finished eating and laid on her stomach with her eyes close, it is an old habit of her whenever she overeats she did sleep in this position.
After I finished eating, I walk toward my tent pressed a button top of it, it started to grow bigger, it changes in tow size, one is fit to sleep for three people while other for five.
"You can sleep in a tent, there is enough space for two people?" I said she had lost her backpack with it she lost her tent cloths everything.
She nodded without saying anything, they both had finished eating and I am just about to take plates for cleaning.
"At least let me clean the dishes, I feel like useless taking all these favors from you," she said while taking the plates from my had and I nodded and left with dishes.
I started to study the map sitting beside Ashlyn, this realm is bigger than I expected, it has two small forests and one mountain range.
''I am going to sleep!" Rhea said, I nodded toward her, she obviously hadn't slept since yesterday and the past two days had been constant life and death struggle if I had been her place I would have succumbed to sleep already.
As I am studying the map, I started to feel little hot at first, I thought I am just sweating due to little humidity which had in a cave but soon temperature of started to increase and my body started to sweat profusely and my skin started to turn red.
"Fuck!" I said and quickly checked on the Ashlyn, this little glutton looks fine except in sleep with her stomach down.
I heaved a sigh of relief seeing she is fine, I quickly smoothen the cave floor with my sword and started to perform positions I learned in Advanced combat class.
Simultaneously operating my refinement engine at full speed while circulating the tenth move of exercise and trying toward the eleventh circle and I even activated the grade 1 armor I am wearing which I cant kept activated more than two hours.
The reason for my body turning red is the meat of Corporal stage monster that I ate earlier.
I've eaten more than I could handle, now that extra energy is trying to find an outlet to come out.
I have to use this energy quickly or results will be disastrous, seeing my skin is still turning red, I started to perform those weird combat exercise more speedily.
These weird moves have a specialty, they seemed to zap energy from once body and slower you perform the less energy it will take and you will feel less fatigue but currently I am trying to perform it fast as I could.
I am also trying to operate Refinement engine with all my might, to take and purify more mana.
As I am circulating the tenth move of exercise while trying on eleventh, I crashed into the eleventh circulation, although pain is unbearable but dying like cooked meat is more frightening.
I am performing that weird combat exercises fast as I could but all it did recess down burning my body a little if I stopped my body will turn in cooked shrimp within minutes.
Times passes by soon it's been an hour since my skin started to turn red but there are no changes except for I am circulating 12th circle of exercise.
I used turn tired after I performed that weird exercise for an how and I did slowly but here I am performing it very fast but I didn't feel a speck of tiredness, I feel like water tank which filled out of its limit and can burst out any second.
I don't know when Ashlyn woke up but she is sitting top to the tent and looking at me with her mirthful eyes.
This glutton! She ate the same as me, no! She ate little more than me but she looked absolutely fine, nothing seemed wrong with her except for her little bloated stomach, which will turn normal after she digested all the food she ate.
I sometimes really wonder, where did she put all the food that she ate, her body is only a little bigger than my palm.
As time passed by redness of my skin stop spreading but the didn't lessen, if someone would look at me they will find my body red as a tomato.
Not only my supreme combat exercise is advancing but my Refinement engine also purifying mana at a much higher rate.
I broke past 13th and a 14th circle simultaneously and because of that my performing Weird exercise become even faster.
The redness of my skin started to recede when I barge into the 15th cycle supreme combat exercise and I performed Weird exercises even faster.
Within an hour all redness on my skin tone but I suddenly felt very tired and suddenly just wanted to sleep on the floor of the cave.
I control my urge sleep and walk upstream to wash my body of the sweat, I never sweated in my life this much as I sweated earlier when I felt like cooking.
I got a little surprised when I checked the time, It took me more than five hours to let out extra energy from my body as it is midnight now.
I have to be little careful eating Corporal grade monster from on, I got out of the stream, wore my clothes entered the camp to sleep.
Rhea is sleeping soundly with complete guard down if anyone had nefarious intentions, she could nothing than be a pig on butchers blade.
I fell asleep an as soon as I laid on the floor when I woke up it's already morning but Rhea is still sleeping soundlessly.
Her injuries seemed to have healed already, she will wake up soon.
Flexing my sore muscles which became sore after intense physical exertion of last night.
I quickly freshen up and started to cook, the spices which were enough for me to last for the week will be finished in three days as if I continue with rhea.
"How are feeling?" I ask as when I head tents flap opening. "Very good!" She said with a bright smile.
''I am leaving after eating, do you….." I asked her told my plan of finding a rescue team from westblood or group of those whose accidentally entered this realm like us, so we could find the way out of this realm.
"I'll come with you, can you show me the map?" she asked, "I will send it to your Holowatch," I said and send her the map.
We left the cave after planning the route, the cave is safe but we can't stay here, we have to find a chance to return home, no matter how slim the chance is.
