Fate/Inheritance

Chapter 27 - 26: Rest Day

Lifting myself from the bed I waved at the group outside who was peaking and when they asked worriedly if I'm ok I merely waved it off and asked them some few questions. It seems we were quickly teleported here in the capital where the best healers reside in the kingdom and I practically slept for the whole day. They were shocked at how I survived while bleeding an amount where a normal person should had been shocked to death.

It seems today was a rest day that was scheduled to us by the Grand Commander due to being our first campaign. Later I learned that these kind of modern-like practice came from a senior of ours who worked and studied in the medical field that helps us not to have any mental disorder for seeing and experiencing a gruesome sight. Looking at the few people that talked with me it seems the others are either busy relaxing and strolling around or training.

When Veronica arrived with a trolley of food while smiling radiantly she arrived pushing it beside me. It seems they saw her drag the 'corpse' outside as they quickly gave excuses with pale faces and ran away. 'Jerks.' I muttered secretly while looking at the receding tide of people I clicked my tongue in annoyance. Looking at the busy girl beside me arranging the food...

"Thanks…" I murmured softly and it seems she heard that and smiled warmly.

"No, I think I should be the one thanking you. Without you we would either had been kidnapped at that time or killed in that dreary caverns." She said waving off what I said. To be honest that was really a tight situation and I just got lucky that the vampire's last attack did not hit me in the vital spots and he hesitated at the last moment. Thinking about the situation back then made me worried about those girls. It seems the worry surfaced also in my face and she asked me what I was thinking. After I asked her if those girls were ok she said.

"They are fine now, those who have homes or relatives to return to left by now after a quick check up. Those who have nowhere to go where either taken in as nuns in the local temples or recruited as housekeepers and maids by a few nobles and the King. By the way they especially asked a favor in giving you especially a huge amount of thanks when they heard the story and it seems they can remember fragmentary memories in that situation." She said while smiling making me sigh in relief.

I asked her what information was given and it seems she merely said to the guards that she waked up when the battle was over and saw a 'shining being', a pile of ashes and the vampirism of the girl receding due to a weird dagger made out of light. She did not mention any thing about me except me being the last man standing but when I heard the 'shining being' I smirked thinking about Lancer who acted smug in me. It seems the woman called Falna already returned into her family and she wanted to thank me personally but due to my fainted circ.u.mstances she did not get the chance.

When I was going to start to eat Veronica took the chance to take the spoon and after scooping out some food she said.

"Aaaa~" While having a bashful smile. Hearing the sneaky laugh of Lancer makes my eyebrow twitch but remembering the incident in the morning made me surrender to this kind of predicament.

[Oh my~! Oh my~! William-san it seems you keep on complaining but you are actually enjoying this aren't you~.] Ruby said in a small shady voice like how when the devil whisper in your ear making me reel back making the girl in front of me utterly confused. Shaking my head off and said to her it's nothing I ate in silence with only her who kept on feeding me making feel a weird sense of peace… Well except for the two voices inside of me who keeps trying to ruin the atmosphere…

After eating she arranged the empty plates and said to me.

"Well I will leave you a bit~. Rest well you need to have the energy to stand up tomorrow. It seems our personal trainers and delegations from allied kingdoms will arrive the tomorrow so be prepared~." She said while pushing the trolley out of the room. With the familiar silence I feel in the room I looked around a bit and when I felt it was clear I called out for Ruby and Sapphire to come out of my body.

[Kyaaah~ Such a cliché situation I though you would had pushed her down and do *omitted* this and *omitted* that to her with your burning passion~] What the hell is burning passion? I retorted to the floating book who kept on squirming and had already been breaking the laws of physics with how she floats and squeeze her body that is practically a thick book. Sighing at her antics Sapphire merely said.

[William-sama your status has already been updated. Feel free to look at the changes.] She said in her usual cool voice. Sighing I willed for my status to appear and noticed already the various changes.

Ruby's Comment: "First milestone get~! Keep up the good work William-san~ there's no reward though~."

Looking at the various changes I felt giddy and smiled. I already knew I will get the Battle Continuation Skill due to being skewered and that sheer pain. The thing that made me happy more is my level. In the world of Terradesia all jobs or classes tend to follow one single rule that is every ten levels is a stepping point.

Due to the fact that I follow the magic branch I will gain a magic circle inside of me that is located in the heart. Each tenth level it would increase and give me a boost in strength and gain new abilities. So a difference of stage can really change the status quo. I remember Yamada mentioned that the Qi Branch have a Low-Mid-High and Perfection segments but I won't mention it much.

To sum it up these paths tend to copy an end result of a powerful species living in the planet. Like how the magic branch is said to follow the path of dragons where they said in the later stages a literal organ similar to a dragon heart grows inside a magician's body and how the Qi Branch follow the path of Immortals and Devils. So those in these members of these species tend to have a huge advantage at the start. In those 5 days of training when I am not busy I secretly practiced in magecraft but only at the level of infancy with only a basic understanding of Bounded Fields and Reinforcement to boot but due to the high mystery around me and the 'truth' that is already there it quickly grew in rank.

The sword mastery was practically drilled on me when I tried to swing a sword then the Grand Commander suddenly lunged at me and made me a training dummy of sort while fending myself desperately. I somehow managed to survive those attacks in one piece. I asked some advice a bit from the 3 people in me in my training path and when I felt it was already ok it was already night time so I asked Yamada who just returned from the living to get me some grub and after eating I quickly tuck into the bed and slept for tomorrow is the time we will finally meet our personal instructors.

Thinking it through I wished to find a normal instructor tomorrow.
