บท 1975: Thank Your Friends

Alex walked out of the room a few minutes later and handed over a 66% pill to the man who had been waiting for him.

"Huh? This looks like the one I just gave you," the man said absentmindedly. 

"It's the same type of pill after all. It would look the same," Alex explained.

"Huh?" the man said. "I should eat it now then?"

"Yes, eat it."

The man ate the pill and pulled out the rope that was tied around his shoulders where he had lost his arm. His arm slowly returned to him, healing from the base until his fingers appeared.

He moved his fingers around a little and smiled. "Thank you!" 

"It's just what I do," Alex said. "You can lose your arm again if you want now."

The man grimaced a little. "I'll try not to," he said. "I shouldn't have gone into the forest to begin with."

He turned to look at Alex. "Speaking of which, I don't have many spirit stones to pay you. Do you accept other forms of payment by any chance?"
