The Absolute: Humanity's Second Chance

[ TING!!! ]

[ You have spent 100 Ability Points to max level your Unique Skill "Fatigue Immunity" ]

With that, he felt his body lighten, and the information attached to his Mana Value disappear. He now felt more confident.

He then spent all his points on WIS. In the last few battles, he had fought magic wolves, and had actually, almost, lost a few battles. He even had to retreat from one.

He did not like that feeling.

Now, he was going to he careful. As for magic damage, he would leave that to his wife. He was all about his fists and kicks.

He then spent all his Ability Points to elevate the other Extra Abilities, into Unique Abilities. They had more use, and efficiency this way. "I bet we can now pound those pups, right?"

"I believe so." Esther also did the same, and pushed herself into a Great Master Profession. But her Stats were not as much as those of her husbands.

Unlike David, she already had a Unique Skill that allowed her body to bear great pressure. [G-Force Adaption(5)].

She then evolved it to a max leveled Ability, thus reducing the weight she felt on her shoulders. Nonetheless, her Template was still amazing and, amazing.

Meanwhile as the couple conversed, below them, under the shade of the gigantic hammer, a young red haired woman sat. She was alone, and quite pitiful.

She had her knees tucked in, and her face hidden in between. Her red dress held her figure ever so gently, illustrating her curves and charm. But at this moment, all of that could not shine.

In fact, all her beauty meant jack shit here. Though appearance wise she was more appealing than Esther, in terms of bodies, she paled in comparison.

One could say because she was still growing. But Esther's body was just that. Superior among fit female physiques. Boarding between feminine beauty, and masculine charm.

But her problem was not that. 'Can't you guys just get a room? Like seriously, find some space and give me some god forsaken peace.' She thought in frustration.

Right after dying at the hands of Esther, and coming back to life, she followed this couple. She had no reason to, especially after dying at their hands, but she did.

She was lost from her crew, and though hard to admit, was terrified of being alone. Especially so, for extended periods of time.

Hence she followed.

Along the way, they let her kill her preys, which were wolves, the weaker ones, and let her cook her own food at times. Well, ultimately they did share food with her, since she could not cook.

She thus collected around 10,000 units of Life Essence. They helped her level up all the way to becoming an Advanced Profession. Increasing her battle prowess.

She felt like a day spent with these couple, was like two days spent with her group. Which was amazing. No doubt. She saved a lot of time, and was probably a Rank above them.

Even though they had lower grade Classes, with less stricter Life Essence requirements. She felt like she was leveling way faster. 'Could be because they are a lot, and we are only three.'

'And, they are hunting ordinary beasts, while these two crazy people are hunting wolves. Wolves far stronger, and far larger than them... Well, I'm benefitting.' She thought. 'BUT!!! Please, I can't take this anymore. Get a room you old coots.'

She also cried to herself. She spent days. Days with these two, acting all lovey dovey, and flirting at every given moment, as if she did not exist. As if she was transparent.

'I'm a princess you know!!' She thought, but even when she said that, she was given a death glare for interrupting. And truth be told, she feared Esther deep to the bone.

A week or two, if not three, of spending time with them, felt like six different lifetimes for her. They treated her so much different than she knew how people usually treat her.

Firstly, nobody ever dared to send a normal glare towards her, let alone a death glare. But she experienced quite a few here. So much she felt accustomed to them by now.

Secondly, she has never been cut, or badly wounded before, let alone being killed once before. Even as the <Blazing Phoenix>, she never once died. Except through Esther.

Thirdly, she has never been ignored, let alone treated as if she was transparent. But for weeks, she's been ignored. And they did not seem to care one bit.

Fourth, she was spoiled, and given attention.  Here? Sometimes, she was told to make the meals. She could now fry some meat, and make a makeshift dough bread. In simple terms, she was working her ass off.

Which brought us to fifth. She had never worked since she was born. The hardest chore she ever did was cry for her father when she did not get what she wanted as a child.

And lastly, sixth. She's never been exposed to such gruesome treatment, where she sat and watched people flirt all day. At this point, she felt like the moon on their late night convos.

Sometimes, like the pond they'd stare at, as it reflected the setting sun on an evening date. Or sometimes, like the candle stick that sits in between them during a dinner date.

Basically, she was the embodiment of a third wheel, an unwanted extra, the prop of the play, the unnecessary one.

And all of this happening to someone like her, a young princess that just came of age, was too much. 'Waaaaaaa!! I want to go home!! Daddy, Mommy, I'm sorry!! I want to go hoooommeee...'

"Alright. Let's move out then." Suddenly, at this moment, David's voice rang out, as if to alert her that they were moving out. It interrupted the young princess' bitter cry.

The young princess immediately woke up, and fixed her bearing. Though she was mistreated, she still acted like a princess. As she should.

The gigantic hammer then shrank, and the couple jumped off. David took ahold of it, and rested it over his shoulder. She stared at it in amazement.

At minimum, she believed that this hammer weighed almost a million tons. And this man was handling it like it was nothing? That was impressive.

The young princess, who goes by the name Fiona, felt like the two of them had a difference in their presence and bearing. For a moment, she felt like she was looking at royalty.

"Where are we going?" She asked, and Esther replied with a smile. "We are going on another hunt dear. You should prepare yourself okay? Lest you die."

"O–Okay." She nodded in response, and then kept quiet. Truthfully, Esther was kind. But then there was a twisted side of hers when it came to her time with her man.

Fiona had realized this throughout the journey with them. She had adapted to suit their needs. Mostly Esther's. David was more relaxed, and more outgoing.

"By the way, why didn't you climb up with us? Is something wrong?" Esther pursued the matter, showing a hint of concern. She had previously apologized for her rude behavior(s).

And tried to make up by treating Fiona as a daughter. Fiona had also forgiven her, just that, it seemed like Esther was unaware of the murderous gazes she often had.

Fiona also realized that it was like instinct. And she respected that. 'Only if you don't kill me miss, I'm alright.' She thought, and responded at the same time.

"I am fine, miss Esther. Thank you. I just preferred the shade more. My apologies." She said with reservation in her tone.

Esther covered her mouth and chuckled to herself, "Fufu, would you look at that. Aren't you the cute one." She then smiled at her.

"..."

Fiona blushed in embarrassment and avoided her gaze. But hidden from them, was a silly smile of content. 'Hmph, yeah, that's right. I'm cute. Cute. Not killable.'

She then suddenly thought about it, and wondered where they were going. Last time, they claimed that going into the Wolf Den was suicidal. So where now?

"Uhm, seniors, apologies for my rudeness but, where might we be going?" And she asked again, walking in between the leading David, and Esther behind her.

"Wolf Hunting." David said. Fiona frowned, and wondered to herself if these two were tired of living. Esther than explained, "We'll be attacking the incoming wolves from both the two other Strongholds."
