Chapter 213 Visi
[One time use Dark Dominance card] was the other one Souta received. [Dark Dominance] was a tier 3 spell that six-circle officer Frels used in the battle. It was a huge black ball that shoots beams towards the target.
This will help him when he's in danger.
Despite the fact that he couldn't use his mana, Souta was satisfied with the increase in his overall abilities. Most of his skills level up after fighting the six-circle officers of the Deadly Sins.
Souta decided that he wouldn't use the [Skill-level up card]s for the time being. He will use it after he became a Battlemage. He only needed 2 skill points and he will promote his class to Battlemage.
Now, it's time to prepare himself for the expedition in the Forest of Eternal Light, one of the largest forest on the whole continent. The forest that housed several powerful monster lord.
He knew that those monster lords wouldn't make a move unless he openly provokes them. He knew the limits of his strength so even if he rampaged there. The monster lords wouldn't even care about him. The power he possessed wouldn't even bother those powerful creatures.
In front of them, Souta was just a weak goblin.
He closed his eyes and felt the [Vajra Sword Saya] at the corner of his room. He was connected to this sword so he could feel it even if it was far away. He also could control it using his energy but right now, he doesn't have a shred of energy in his body.
It seems that Saya was still sleeping. It hasn't been a month since the incident in the Fersch dukedom. But it feels that a lot of time had passed because of the things that happened in the past weeks.
Souta stretched his body and he opened his wardrobe. He wore a normal black shirt and Lumilia enter the room with food in her arms.
"Here, I prepare this. I hope it suits your taste." Lumilia said as she placed the food on the small table at the corner.
"Thanks..." Souta said as he sat down and began to eat the food that she prepared.
Lumilia just watched him eat the food with a gentle expression on her face. Then, something flashed in her mind.
"Oh...?"
Souta turned his head and asked, "What's wrong, Lumilia?"
"I forgot that Cluster is sleeping downstairs." Lumilia stood up and hurriedly went down. "I'll wake her up. It's time for lunch so she should eat too."
"Cluster is here...? Hmm... She must be bored in Lumilia's apartment." Souta muttered before he shook his head and went back to eating his food.
It's been a few months since he met Cluster in the Desolate Woods. He still had no idea why those people were pursuing her and what's her connection with the future event of this world.
There were many unknown variables in this world that he didn't know yet.
After a few moments, he heard Cluster's loud voice.
"BROTHER SOUTAAA!!" Cluster shouted as she ran towards Souta's room.
"Don't run, Cluster!" Lumilia said to Cluster.
Cluster arrived in Souta's room and she looked around. When she saw Souta at the corner, she quickly jumped towards him saying, "BROTHER SOUTAAA!!"
Souta quickly moved his body to the side and he caught her. His meal would fell if Souta didn't move his body.
"Mnnnn..." Cluster rubbed her cheeks in his chest.
Souta looked at her with a smile on his face while rubbing her back. It's hard to imagine that Cluster would hug him when he met her at that time. At that time, she was wary about him and doesn't want to talk to him but now... The difference was wide.
She grew closer to him to the point that she thought of him as her real brother.
"Cluster, Souta isn't fully healed so don't do that..." Lumilia said as soon as she saw Cluster tightly hugging Souta.
"It's okay," Souta said while looking at Lumilia with a wry smile on his face.
Cluster turned her head and looked at Lumilia. "See! Even brother Souta said that it is okay so why are you stopping me, sister Mila?"
"..." Lumilia was speechless when she heard Cluster's words.
...
Bryan, Lynn, Alice, Yujin, and Brando arrived at Souta's house after class. They were surprised when they found that Souta was awake. The experts said that Souta would wake up after a month or two but he still woke up.
No one knew that Souta's recovery ability would increase by five times when he was resting or sleeping.
"I'm glad that you're fine, Souta," Lynn said with a sigh of relief. She was worried about him when she heard from teacher Bargan that Souta was in grave condition. She couldn't even sleep well when she thought about his condition. That's why she always came to his house to take care of him.
Lynn and Lumilia were the ones who took care of him while he was out. Bryan, Alice, Yujin, and Brando would only visit him every day to check his condition. Bryan even wanted to help the two but he didn't know what to do. That's why Lumilia and Lynn rejected him when he offered to help Souta.
"Oh? You're awake Souta! Do you feel anything in your body?" Bryan asked Souta without minding the people around him.
"Yeah, I'm fine now." Souta nodded at Bryan as he sat down in his bed.
Yuko who was at his side placed her head on his lap. She looked up at Souta asking him to pet her head.
Souta gently smiled as he caressed her head.
"Mu~" A satisfied tiny voice escaped from Yuko's mouth as Souta pet her head. She closed her eyes and enjoyed him petting her. She didn't care about the other people in this room. All she knew was that Souta would only pet her. She alone has this rights, no other creatures except her could do this.
Lynn looked at Yuko's comfortable looked before turning to Souta's hand. She wanted Souta to do that to her too but she didn't have the courage to say it.
"Me too, I want brother Souta to pet me too!" Cluster opened her mouth as she raised her left hand. Without waiting for Souta's reply, she jumped towards him but Bryan stretched out his hand and caught her in the air.
"Don't bother Souta, I have something to say to him. I'll pet you if you want." Bryan said to Cluster before he focused his attention on Souta.
Lumilia, Alice, and Brando turned to Bryan wondering what he wanted to say. From Bryan's looked, they could guess that it was something important. But they were talking about Bryan. His thinking was different from them.
Souta also looked at Bryan with question marks in his head.
"You said you're fine so let's fight. I wanted to test my improvement against yours." Bryan said in a loud voice.
Everyone didn't expect him to say something useless but this... what could they expect from Bryan. They have nothing to say about this as they looked at him with a blank expression.
"Not at the moment... I have a lot of things to do so we'll postpone it." Souta shook his head and declined Bryan's request.
"Why?!" Bryan looked at him with a grieved expression.
"I said that I have something to do," Souta said. He actually wanted to test his current combat prowess without using mana but he needed to manage his things and the people in Lanny corp.
"Bryan! Stop it! Souta just woke up so he's not in a condition to fight!" Lumilia said to Bryan with anger in her voice.
"Lumilia is right, Bryan? You shouldn't try to fight him at his weakest. I'm sure you want to fight him in his full strength but now is not the time." Brando followed up Lumilia's words as he placed his hand on Bryan's shoulder.
"Oh...? I don't want to fight Souta when he's weak. Okay! I will wait till you recover Souta!" Bryan exclaimed with a big smile on his face.
Yujin who was watching from the side finally opened his mouth. "Bryan become the top 2 ranker of the first year four days ago so it's understandable that he wanted to fight you. He already solidified his position as he defeated the other top rankers several times."
"Hmm?!" Souta was surprised when he heard Yujin's words. He looked at Bryan with widely opened eyes.
"Hehe! It's not bad. Souta, you're the only opponent I have." Bryan said with a laugh.
He didn't expect that Bryan's strength would already surpass the top ranker before him. The improvement of Bryan's strength was terrifying. This was pure talent, completely different from Souta who depends on the system.
"Good. Good." Souta laughed lightly and he looked at Lynn, Alice, and Yujin. "You register as adventurers in the Ibish village right? If you want to continue being adventurers why don't you join my party?"
