Chapter 61: Setting out 1

61- Setting out 1

hmm?

As I opened my eyes, I felt pain all over my body. As I was trying to sit properly, two hands supported my back and helped me sit. I turned my head and saw that it was Armelia, who helped me. For this I simply thanked her and asked

What happened to me? Did I faint?

To this Armelia replied,

Yes, you were screaming with pain, but suddenly you lost consciousness. How are you feeling now?

I nodded my head and again asked,

Yes, although there is still is some after effects of the pain and burning sensations, I feel ok. How long was I unconscious for?

Hmm... I think you were asleep for almost one day. Actually, I did not go out of the hidden cave as I was afraid that some monsters will find us or you might have another problem. And from what I feel, you were asleep at least for the whole day.

Replied Armelia.

Hearing this, my eyebrows got raised subconsciously, which means that it might be night time now. But, suddenly I remembered something and opened the Status window.

When I saw that the HP decreased to 504 and the Resistance stat reduced to 11 points, I felt like my body will explode with anger. The reason I was angry was because the system did not tell me that I will be losing so much HP and Resistant stat points.

Although, I remember that when I experiencing extreme pain after consuming the purple dome mushroom; system told me that, I lost HP and Resistant stat points because the poison of the Purple dome mushroom is damaging me internally and after some time it will try to suppress the previous poison present in my body, and the limits of Resistance stat which was locked at 39, will increase. But all of this was not told to me by the system before I consumed the Purple dome mushroom.

If the system had informed me about all this beforehand, then I would have at least prepared myself for this pain and loss. And I know that even if I questioned the system that Why did you not warn me beforehand. It will either say

-> The (Observation skill) level of the host is low; hence the system was unable to provide more information

OR

-> Host please note that this kind of miscalculations are rare but they happen sometimes. Its difficult to calculate the probability of any error...or something like this kind of shitty reason.

Hence, I did not bother to ask the system about this.

Quickly, I took out few HP potions and drank them until my HP was full.

After that as I was about to put Free stat points into Resistance stat, I saw that Armelia was looking at me with worry and curiosity.

I asked her

Why are you staring at me like this, is there something on my face?

Armelia shaked her head left and right, then said

No, I saw that your face changing from anger to fear then to pain, so I was just worried about you. Are you feeling ok?

Hearing this a smile appeared on my face and I replied

Yes, I am fine. I am feeling hungry, do you want to eat something?

Armelia nodded and so, I started fire. And took out the snake bodies that I killed earlier. I took out knifes and as I was about to cut the snakes. I heard Armelia,

Umm Orochi, are you going to roast snakes?

I looked at her and nodded. But I saw that she was a little uncomfortable

Please can you roast something else? I am not comfortable with eating snakes. Please..?

I looked at Armelia who was looking at me and the snake bodies with uncomfortable expression, I got confused and asked her,

What happened Armelia? is there something wrong?

Hesitating Armelia replied

It's just that I am disgusted with eating snakes, so I request you not to cook these snake bodies and instead throw them away.

When I heard that she was not happy with eating snakes, I simply shrugged and said,

Alright, since you dont want me to roast them, I will not do it. I will take out the previously killed wild boars body and we will roast it and eat.

Hearing this Armelia vigorously nodded her head.

I put back all the snake bodies back in the Storage box and took out the wild boars body that I killed yesterday.

I did not dwell or think much about Armelias disagreement on roasting snakes as everyone has certain likes and dislikes. And there are people who are picky about the food, so it's common for people like Armelia to exist.

It's not just her, even in my previous life I rarely used to meat. Because my family was not financially stable and meat items were brought once in a week. So, eating other kinds of meat was out of the question. Only when I got reincarnated in this world, did I start eating all kinds of meat and delicacies, but there still certain things that I am picky about.

After I cut few pieces of meat, I started roasting them and after they were roasted well, we both ate until out stomach were full. This time I was not in the mood to cook the Buff food, so it was simple roast.

========================================

Let's make a few goals.

Mass Release on Monday:

100 Power stones = 2 Chapters

120 Power stones = 3 Chapters

140 Power stones = 4 Chapters

(Only if I reach this goal, will I be Mass releasing the chapters. Because I have started working in a company, and am tired when I return home. So, If I could see your support through this, I can reassure myself that Yeah, I can still work on this novel and can also start new works for my readers.)
