28 Chapter 28 - Matter solved!

I had several skills available, but I was unable to increase any of them, the skills that needed the least points obtained were [Little resistance against magic] and [Little resistance against physical attacks].

However, all of them would still cost me 20 points, I was extremely frustrated, the other skills needed 30 points and the only ones that needed a more significant value was the ability [Aptitude for dark magic] and the one that would let me immune that I said earlier.

Seeing this, I just gave up using my remaining 10 points, saving them would be a good thing to do, when I add a few more points I would use them to get some skills.

For now, I have a good Status, and my spells are at a very acceptable level, I don't need to despair to increase them now, I can hold on.

'But the way things are, I won't succeed to raise my level for a while.' I could only close my eyes and sigh for the frustration I was feeling, it was not a good time to have shown me these skills, because now I am very anxious to get them.

[Don't worry, you'll be able to level up over time. ]

"This is pretty obvious, you know? The problem is how much time is." I thought the voice was already gone, but she reappeared saying something very obvious.

[It won't take long, don't worry. ]

"How can you be sure of that? .... Hey, are you there? ....." I was waiting for the voice to answer again, but I was just ignored.

Well, she could have told me how to level up faster, right? If you want to help me, at least help in a functional way, don't just throw all those skills in my face and disappear like that.

Again I opened my Status, the usual screen. But now next to it was a small "+" symbol that when pressed showed the second screen with the skills, I kept staring at them while imagining how incredible it would be if I put my hand on them.

Some time has passed since my mother contacted the guild.

Just a few days later they came to the forest to do a thorough search. Several adventurers arrived in a carriage driven by an old man, looking at his [Status], I could see that he was just an ordinary person.

Adventurers, on the other hand, were very strong. They all had an average [Status] of 400 points, but two of them had more than 500 strength. Asking my mother, she said that these adventurers were from a group of A-RANK adventurers.

She also ended up saying that they were an A-rank group, but some of the adventurers in the group were just B-rank because the guild evaluated them in two ways. First, it was the individual strength of each, and then the strength of the group as a whole.

She also told me that her group was a B-RANK group, even though the other people who participate in her group are not very strong.

This was really interesting, quite different than in my old world where everything was based on the individual strength of each participant.

During all of her explanation, we were already at home, also with the old man who drove the carriage, he was received by my mother while waiting for the adventurers to return.

This would take a few hours.

As soon as the adventurers arrived, all the residents seemed confused about what was going on, but my mother calmed them down by saying that it was something that didn't involve the village and that they were just passing through, I could see on the faces of the residents that they didn't have accepted that.

Even more, after the adventurers came back from the forest and went straight to my house to talk to my mother, they knew there was something wrong. However, they did not dare to question the adventurers.

When they returned, they seemed confused, they also did not seem to understand why those stones had appeared in that place, since there was not one of those monsters there, they had never seen a similar case.

They said they would report everything they had seen, but that they probably would not need to go back since they found nothing.

These monsters don't normally travel, so they are always in the same place, and if he isn't in the forest, he can't appear in the forest, I confess that I still had my doubts. But I couldn't say anything, just listen to their conversation.

And after talking to my mom some more, and also having a cup of tea, the group of adventurers went out in a carriage.

My mother ended up begging them to stay, as it was starting to get dark and they didn't need to travel now, she would ask some residents to host them at their house until tomorrow, as we didn't have much space.

However, they elegantly declined the offer, the adventurers did not seem concerned about starting the journey overnight, as they had confidence in their strength and would be able to travel without worries.

Well, I can understand that, but it is still a little wrong to do something like that, considering that they are going to force the horses more than they should.

As soon as the adventurers left, many residents appeared at the door asking why they were here, and without being able to hide much more, my mother ended up saying what she had seen and why they were here.

Even though they were a little irritated that she did not have talked with all the residents, something that could have put their lives at risk. They also understood why she did not speak.

My mother seemed happy that they had managed to understand, and she also thanked them all. Of course, she did not fail to warn that tomorrow she would warn everyone, so they would not be worried about it.

And that was what she did, the next morning a small meeting between the residents was scheduled, where she spoke about everything that had happened.

Many residents seemed to have been a little sad or irritated that she had hidden it, but everyone also seemed to understand.

Many of them even admitted that they would panic if they had found out about it earlier and that now that the adventurers saw that there was nothing wrong, they were calmer.

And that was how the whole matter about the possible monster was closed.

And I? I still couldn't go hunting in the forest, my mother again said that she would go with me.
