Nero, who was struggling to sit down, stayed alert. She started thinking about the commotion she caused when she fell. Nero didn't even have time to be happy that she completed the mission.

"Damn it! If only I had completed this mission before..."

Nero, who now has the information in mind, realized the reason behind his mistake in falling.

"Oh, a list of skills?"

Nero didn't have time to look at the window that opened in front of him when he completed the mission. The moment he thought of the skills list, a new window opened.

_____________________________________________

Skills:

• [Cell Regeneration] Level One.

• [Berserk Mode] Level One.

• [Flight Mastery] Level One.

_____________________________________________

Nero was confused by these two skills she didn't even know she had these skills. She was about to click on cell regeneration when she heard a voice echoing.

??: "Hello." Someone came up, "Are you alive?"

A pretty young girl in her sixteen to seventeen years of age asked. She had short hair up to her black shoulder and green eyes.

Although Nero heard this person speak as she approached, she could not understand what they were saying. Nero was even more alert when she saw three more people. Along with the one who had just arrived in front of her, the others followed behind her.

"Urgh!" Nero tried to get up, but her injuries haven't had time to recover yet.

Although he feels that his injuries were recovering quickly, possibly due to his ability to regenerate cells. Nero didn't have enough strength to escape, because he was already surrounded.

She could feel that her injuries were recovering quickly, possibly due to her ability to regenerate cells. Nero didn't have enough strength to escape, because she was already surrounded.

Nero noticed that she now had two women and two men around her, looking at her with curiosity and concern.

The woman who tried to talk to her at first, approached her, trying to feel her pulse. Finding her pulse was normal, she sighed.

"I am Jana." She said, "We don't intend to hurt you."

"..."

They were confused when they noticed that Nero did not pronounce any words, thinking that maybe she was wounded in the throat. 

They were confused to note that Nero did not speak a word, thinking that perhaps she did not know the language of their country.

When they looked, they didn't find any injuries on her. The reality was that Nero couldn't understand what they were saying to her. It wasn't a language she knew, so it was impossible for her to know what she was trying to say.

A young girl with long dark blue hair and purple eyes approached with a little jar of ointment in her left hand. She crouched in front of Nero. 

"Hi, I'm Choko." She said, "I'm gonna put that ointment on your bruises."

She said signaling with the ointment in her hand. She realized Nero's strange and cautious gaze. Choko pulled a dagger from her waist, which surprised Nero, but her next action surprised everyone.

"Choko!" Jana asked, "Why did you do this?"

The two young men beside her, were also anxious to see it. They didn't expect Choko to do that to herself.

"Hrm." Choko answered calmly, "If I don't do this, she won't trust me. Besides, if I apply the ointment where I cut myself, it will heal soon."

"That..."

They did not have words to refute, but still, her action was drastic.

Nero saw this, watched her put the ointment on her own cut. Nero noticed swift healing next. That surprised her a little. Nero was now able to understand that she just wanted to help her.

Choko smiled when she noticed that Nero was not as cautious as before. Still crouching in front of Nero, she began to apply the ointment to the visible wounds on Nero's body.

"Urgh!" Nero felt a slight pain the moment the ointment was applied.

Choko laughed at Nero's reaction, thinking she was cute trying to act strong.

If Nero knew what she was thinking, she would create a hole to bury herself, to hide her embarrassment.

Nero looked at this beautiful girl with long blue hair, surprised by her actions. She could say that they were human because they had no wings and nothing seemed out of the ordinary with their bodies.

"Why can't she understand us?" One of the men asked, "Did she lose her memories?"

"I don't know either," Choko said, "but it must be something like that."

Nero was listening to them talk, but unable to understand. She could only imagine what they were saying in their conversations, since they often looked in her direction to see her reaction.

'Damn system!' Nero shouted in her frustrated mind, 'Give me a translator, or at least put a caption on it so I can understand what exactly they're talking about!'

Of course, her appeals hadn't been heeded. No translator and no subtitles showed up. She kept looking at them talking to each other, without being able to understand 1 word of what they were saying.

"She's an angel?" A young woman with light brown hair and black eyes asked.

"Hard to tell, Breno." Jana said: "She doesn't seem to understand us, and her wings are pink with some black feathers. It's the first time I've seen wings like this."

"Hrm." Choko asked, "What do you think, Jair, is she an angel?"

Choko asked the other man with dark skin and short black hair with dark brown eyes.

"Fine." Jair answered: "Even if the color of her wings are a little strange, they look very much like the wings of an angel."

In the end, they couldn't figure out whether or not Nero was an angel.

Nero, who was recovering very quickly, sighed with relief. 'The important thing was that they didn't look bad, and they don't seem to be prejudiced because of my wings.' Though she has not ruled out the possibility that other people might have a different opinion.

"Can you understand me?" Nero decided to take a chance and try to communicate with them, using her native language.

"..."

"What did she say?" Breno asked confused.

"I don't know either." Jana shook her head.

Choko and Jair also shook their heads in denial.

Nero said in his mind: "Hrm, they don't seem to understand me either, well, I expected that."

Feeling her wounds were all healed, Nero took a deep breath a few times, then stood up and surprised them.

"What's up?" Choko asked worriedly.

Although I don't understand what she said, Nero nodded accordingly. Since she could see the worry on her pretty face.

Nero joined her eyebrows as she saw a new mission window appear. 

Nero looked at them and saw that they were between levels four and five in Rank F. They also wore uniformed armor.

Jair had a sword around his waist, Choko a red gauntlet, Breno a spear and Jana a wand.

'Hrm... even if I want to group with them and learn their language, I cannot communicate with them.' Nero reflected.
