Chapter 59
It was quite a heavy fight and not because it was difficult, for it was not difficult at all, but because there were too many of them and they kept coming from every possible direction.
"It's over, he boy is it over?"
First, speaking in a tired voice, he asked Andrey who was resting on the ground and seeing that he didn't answer me I speak to him again.
"You're back to calling me boy... You know I don't care, and if it looks like it's over."
Starting hard and then Letting out a sigh Andrey answered me, followed by that he gets up from the ground showing a better physical state than mine and starts to place some stones with magic auras around the place.
"Just saying, but I'm a mage, so I can't recover as fast as you, so what are those stones?"
Letting out a little lie that isn't a lie, since my physical state sucks, I ask Andrey about his actions.
"Sure all mages say the same thing, now these stones are to create a boundary field in case more monsters come from the depths."
While he was explaining things to me he had already placed the stones, followed by that he took out two tents from his storage ring and placed them in the shape of a tent/ leaving room in the middle of these two for a bonfire.
"I forgot about the wood, do you have any?"
"Sure."
I guess he's not so infallible, putting that out of my mind I make wood appear that has been left over from our trip, namely Sif's and mine.
"This is wood?"
What a question that is, of course it is without paying attention to that, I go about my business until I realize what kind of wood I have given him.
"It's just a little... tanned."
Oh come on, don't roll your eyes, the important thing is that it's wood.
"What a tan, this is burnt."
"racist"
"You know what... You don't look a gift horse in the teeth."
Leaving a saying hanging in the air he walked to the center of the two tents and started a simple campfire, sure, simple until he pulled out cooking utensils, pots, pans, vegetables, meats and started cooking.
"You know how to cook! Finally no more cooked meat!"
At this instant Andrey gained a new light under my eyes, you'll think it's exaggeration, but Sif didn't know how to cook and I least of all one of the life experiences I could never master, cof cof whatever the thing is that our whole trip we ate cooked wolf meat on a campfire.
"What the hell wasn't it you were tired!"
Damn I was overcome with emotion and jumped towards the campfire.
"My body is tired, but my magic isn't."
Blurting out those words that I thought were epic, I watch as Andrey makes the art of cooking literally, as he wastes nothing, cuts vegetables flush, moves with incredible timing and all.
"System, this wouldn't have to be categorized as a skill."
"affirmative, but due to the large amount of useless information it would be to show these skills in a conflict, only the offensive type(for fights) are presented."
While I was talking to the system, Andrey finished placing everything in the pot and that thing is already starting to give off smell... what can I tell you magic.
"Yeah, you're done putting me to bed, you can waste your time for half an hour until this is done."
With those words he moved to the far side and started washing everything he used for cooking.
"If I didn't know you, I'd think you were assaulting me, but if I'm going to recharge my mana in this half hour."
Hearing a grunt from Andrey, I activate the <digestion> skill, though things were difficult, as there isn't much dark or moon type mana, I guess it must be because it's a fake darkness created by those clouds.
"Now system show my status"
"Yes, user."

Finishing that I was going to explore the skill upgrades, but this was not possible, as I felt Andrey shaking me from the shoulder.
"There's the food already, if you want I can take the first watch and you can continue with your recovery."
After opening my eyes and coming out of the depths of my mind managed to see that Andrey even brought a table, which is already served by the way.
"No, I have recovered enough, besides you have cooked, set the camp and the table, then I take the first watch."
Responding and getting up from the floor we started moving towards the already served table.
"Bon appetit" ×2
Saying thank you for the food we get into action.
