Chapter 88: Restoration Potion
Chapter 88: Restoration Potion
The twinstars blazing up in the sky toned down the heat and watched over Utopia with a tilt. The sky had a few nimbus clouds here and there. The lack of rain for a long time is visible from the dried bushes.
Lee sat cross-legged, leaning on the tree, and Fero had his head on his master's lap. Fero would glance at Lee oftenly, only to see that Lee was sleeping. In reality, Lee was having conversations with the Dimension Sovereign. The hourly reminder popped up, but Lee did not open his eyes. He instead asked D to dictate.
[It's 1 P.M. and you harvested 15560 Essence.]
*internal nod*
[As I was saying, your Essence reserve can be used to increase other's attributes. But the ratio is 2000 Essence for 1 point of attribute. Don't forget the ratio.]
Lee opened his eyes with a relieved smile. He had two reasons to be delighted. One, D imparted all of his knowledge to Lee and that includes very detailed and extensive facts and figures regarding the Intellus continent. This was because D has his adopted father's grave there. It was he who introduced him to the world of cultivation. D could not be near him when he died, so he created an independent space and stored his palace, his collection and his father's grave there. The only entrance to that space was in Intellus, and does a cyclic rotation around the continent regularly. The key to open the space, which is D's soul print was already one with that of Lee's.
Two, Fero was staring at him while standing on all four. If looked closely, you can see a faint smile on Fero's face. Lee rubbed and caressed Fero's short mane and his skin. Glancing at An, he found that Ruella and the girl had not woken up.
*gasp*
With a gasp, the girl in the samurai kimono jolted up with wide gone eyes. Her eyes reflected fear and shock, as her heart drummed in her chest. An was surprised to see her waking in the most unexpected way. But profusely sweating Mia gave a hint of a bad dream.
"Are you okay?"
For An's doubt, the girl nodded frantically as she turned her head in all directions and surveyed the surroundings. She could only calm her mind after confirming that these people are not going to kill or exploit her.
Swear drops fell on her cloth and Mia wiped them off her face. Ruella regained her consciousness as she began to wipe her face.
An had an instinct inside her telling that she is at a weakened state, and reached to support her. Before she could grab onto Ruella's hands, the druid had gone falling back. At the right moment, the antelope appeared behind her and cushioned her descend. An sprang up and moved forward to support her and lie down.
"Lee!"
An called out Lee in a manner that made him vigilant. His whole being shot towards her like a pre-recorded reflex.
"She needs a healing potion!"
The comment sprang up as he observed Ruella. Weariness took over the druid's face and showed signs of discomfort. Sweat drops gave a warning of rise in body temperature.
[She needs a Restoration potion!]
'Then but it!'
In the open palm of Lee appeared an exquisite glass bottle that rivalled the beauty of gemstones. A few drops of deep pink coloured liquid moved inside the 12 centimetres long bottle. Under D's command, Lee opened the bottle and emptied it out into Ruella's mouth. The pink drops vanished and Ruella twitched for a second before going into deep sleep.
"What was that liquid?"
An frowned as she questioned the liquid. The difference in the bottle's shape and quality made her wish that his choice better be right!
[Repeat after me.]
D gave a hand to counter An's question as Lee had no idea what that was except it's name.
"That was the Restoration potion. Used to treat Mana deviation."
Lee repeated the concise definition and glanced at Mia who was flustered by the events. To lighten her visible fear and confusion, he decided to initiate a friendly talk. He introduced himself as a wanderer. An got her cue to act and gave her part of description.
"I am Kawahara Mia, daughter of Kawahara Hisoka, of the Wind Samurai clan."
Mia was still cautious of both. All the actions she had witnessed till now could not be related. The calm demeanor of the longsword bearer and the playful predator face of Fero invoked a sense of guard in her. But, An and Lee decided to open up more as they found a girl belonging to a famous samurai clan situated in Festa, in a savannah far away from the city. Not to mention her tattered clothes and broken sword, the duo felt something was amiss and uninformed to them.
After a series of exchanges, Mia lowered her vigilance as she learnt more about them. A smile crept up her face at some point of the conversation and remained there since. Her initial fear to even look at Fero was slowly overcome by firm assurance from Lee and support of An. Goosebumps stood up on her hands as she finally mustered all of her courage and touched Fero's mane. Under Lee's command, hyena took Mia as an accomplice. This decision came from the unwavering evaluation of D.
=====
3 P.M.
15560 Essence harvested.
=====
Somewhere in the conversation, Lee had missed an hourly notification. The time and atmosphere conveyed a pleasant sensation. While Lee was basking in this moment, Mia's stomach growled out, loud enough for the others to hear. Fero and the antelope moved away from her, as she suppressed the hunger with hands pressed to her tummy. As she closed her eyes in throbbing embarrassment, a sweet fragrant smell offered its help.
Mia opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was an open bottle of milk. It was stretched in front of her face as a gesture to drink it up. Mia doubtfully glanced at An who was holding the bottle. When her heartwarming countenance was sighted, Mia quickly took the bottle and emptied it up into her dry throat.
*hah*
A relieved sigh rose from Mia as she placed the bottle on the ground. Wiping her lips, she noticed that not even a single drop of milk had been spilled. She felt proud for not spilling even a drop of the precious milk which was given to her. As Mia sat on her knees, An gave 2 loaves of Honey Bread and another bottle of milk.
