"Huh?... Where I am?... It is kinda feel soft and fluffy..."

...GROWL!...

"Oh!..."

Right, Herd is giving me a ride back to the old man's house. I probably fall asleep along the way while giving directions.

"Wait... How do you know where to go if I fall asleep and can't give directions, Herd?"

...GROWL!...

Herd raises his nose as he makes a growl to reply to my question.

"I see... So you are following my scent. That is quite impressive of you, Herd."

...GROWL!!!...

"Jeez... That is really impressive, strong, and magnificent Alpha-Wolf, Herd."

...GROWL!...

This arrogant wolf really likes to be showered in praise. Anyway, he quite deserves it for now. After all, if he can get me to the old man's house without me giving direction, then I can go back to sleep now.

.

.

...Thug!...Thug!...Thug!...

"Wake up, Siel... Enough sleeping in the front door."

"Ouch!... Stop kicking me, old man! I'm still recovering from the fight we just had earlier."

...Thug!...

"I said stop!!!... How many times did you kick me already?!"

"Just enough to wake you up. The last is for calling me an old man again."

Damn it!... This old man...

"Don't call me an old man in your head or I will kick you again."

"Then don't read what I'm thinking, Mister! Anyway, how long I have been here, lying on the floor and sleeping? And Where is Herd? Did he drop me here after calling you, Mister?"

That stupid smug wolf. At least wake me up before you go, idiot.

"Ehh?!... That Rank_D Alpha-Wolf is Herd? Jeez... How tough is the fight you all went through that a Rank_E Magical Beast evolve in a single fight? He just got into Rank_E the first time I looked into his System statu."

"It was tough enough for me to almost..."

Ehh?... Did the old man just say something important?

"Maybe your month's worth of training gave him much faster improvement compare to you."

"Wait, old man didn't you just say something important just now?"

"Anyway, even if Herd is now a Rank_C Alpha-Wolf Magical Beast, there is no way he will learn to knock on the door and call somebody inside a house."

Damn it, just forget about that and answer my new question, old man.

"Also, if Herd stands on his hindlimbs now, he would be much taller than you! You have been left behind, SHORT-TEMPERED brat... Pfft!... Hahaha!..."

"Shut it, old man!... Answer my question!... What do you mean by saying..."

"Anyway!!!... Let's get inside!!!... Because if I didn't heal you up sooner or later, you are probably gonna... Well, let's stay positive shall we!!!"

Damn it!... This old man is really determined to change the subject and dodge my question. He is even raising his voice. However, that will only work for a child, old man.

"I said shut it!... Explain what you said about..."

"Now, let me help you stand, Siel."

The old man cut me off again while I'm questioning him. He kneeled down to help me stand, but even before he can lift me up...

"Cough!...Cough!!...Cough!!!..."

The old man loses his balance and falls down with both knees and hands on the ground. He started coughing so hard that even some liquid, probably some digestive liquid, came out from his mouth and spilled on the ground.

Pfft... Serves you... right... old...

"Cough!...Cough!!...Cough!!!..."

Damn it... What I am saying?

Maybe the origin me is not that of a good person even back in the origin World.

"Cough!...Cough!!...Cough!!!..."

"Damn it, Mister!... Are you an idiot?!... Between the two of us, you are the one who is actually dying because of your sickness. Don't go trying to lift someone when you can't barely walk on your own!"

"Cough!... I will be fine, Siel. Just let me rest a bit and I will be back to normal."

"Then let's go rest inside."

I gather my strength and stand up.

I also ignore the tiredness and sluggishness that I'm still feeling in my body and help the old man to stand on his feet and walk towards inside the house or rather the basement.

"I'm able to get the Magic Crystals of the Rank_C Curse Mystic-Wolf."

"I know, I saw that you left it outside along with your other loots..."

"I know, Mister. But I can't support you to walk while carrying those. I will get back to it after I let you rest in bed. Then after you get your strength back, hurry and finish the Cure you are making so you can finally heal yourself."

"You are right... After all, we are almost out of time."

.

.

.

After the old man had rested for half an hour and got back his strength, he told me that he could finish the cure medicine and insisted that I should sleep and rest too.

Well, I'm actually still kinda tired even though I fell asleep on Herd's back while going back to the old man's house.

I agreed to him but before I started to rest, the old man applied some medicinal ointment to the burns all over my body and made me drink some kind of Healing Potion.

After that, I lie on the bed, slowly lose consciousness, and fall asleep...

.

.

.

...You know, I really don't like it when my medicine needs to be injected into me by syringe...

Huh?... Who said that?

...Hmm? What do you mean?...

It is another voice, a female voice.

What is happening? Where exactly is this place? Why does my vision is so blurry?

...Well, it is because no matter what they do, the first injection is always gonna hurt...

Wait!... Did the voice just now come from my side? Am I the one talking? Is this my fragment memories? But why everything is so blurry? At least I want to clearly see the face of the woman talking to me.

...Pfft, of course, its gonna hurt, but it is only for a bit so you just have to endure it. After all, that medicine will cure you...

...I know... .... ....

Huh!... What is happening, why can't I hear my origin body's voice anymore? Also, my vision is getting more blurry... Wait!... Am I about to wake up?

Not yet!... I at least need to see her face! I know and feel that she is very important to me.

Please, Siel. Don't wake up yet...

.

.

.

...Sob!...Sob!...Sob!...

"Huh?... Why am I..."

Before I could finish asking myself why I was crying, the fragment memories that I had just dream came to my mind.

"Damn it, Siel... Sob!... Why do you have to wake up before I can see her face?"

After calming myself for a bit, I got up from the bed and went to look for the old man.

I don't know how long I slept but my body still feels very tired and sluggish. Maybe I didn't sleep that long...

"Mister! What happened to you?!"

I found the old man lying on the floor of his laboratory. He probably collapsed while making the cure medicine. I immediately run towards where he is to help him.

"Are you alright, Mister? Can you hear me?"

"Huh?... Cough!... Siel? I'm fine. I just fell asleep after finishing the cure medicine."

"Damn it, Mister. Don't scare me like that!"

"Anyway, can you help me sit at the chair over there so I can rest before I drink the cure medicine?"

The old man pointed at the chair near the table where all the vials of medicine were. The cure medicine is probably there too so I help him stand and support him walking towards there.

However, when we are already near the chair he is talking to, the old man does something unexpected.

...Thug!...

"Ehh?..."

The old man pushes me making me the one who sits on the chair.

"CHAIN..."

Then restrained me to the chair with his Magic.

"What is the meaning of this, old man?!"

After restraining me, the old man slowly walks towards me with a big syringe in his right hand.

"Don't worry, Siel... This will only hurt for a bit."
