33 Escaping the city 2 (1/2)

Waking up from sleep, Ramie lifted his head and glanced at the clock hanged on the wall across the room: ”8 Am!!”

Ramie was taken by the indicated time. The five of them had stayed awake throughout the night, not daring to sleep. They were afraid that the tier-2 wicked dog beast might make a move at Reem's summoned while they were sleep.

The entire night was filled with beast cries and battles. So, they only slept the moment the sun shined on the city, when the beasts hides in their territories.

Ramie was the last among them to fall asleep, which was around 7:20. However, he was feeling so invigorated right now that made him feel as though he had slept for an entire day, even though he had dozed off for less than an hour to completely restore to top condition.

'This bloodline is really something…!'

He couldn't deny the massive advantage this bloodline had granted him.

…

Today was the fourth day since this city fell completely to the beasts, and it felt like a vivid nightmare.

Four days ago, he was on the boat, wanting to come here as fast as possible, to get himself checked out by a doctor. He also was worried about the political situation of the country. But now…! He was strategizing ways of using his 'magical spells' and coordinates with another 'magicians' and an actual 'summoned monster' to escape a monster infested city so as not be eaten alive!

This twist of turn was beyond imagination not 4 days ago… now however, it was reality!

Yawning and stretching out his body, he got up from the most comfortable sleep he had gotten during this period of crazy events.

Standing straight, he closed his eyes, and started sensing the magic energy flowing in his body. He moved it about… and it followed his will, moving as easily as him moving his hands.

Unlike Lance's description of his life energy, which was warm and invigorating, this flowing energy inside him felt a bit cold, with no strengthening effects.

After a while, a certain childish thought flashed through his mind, putting an amused smile on his face.

Executing this thought, Ramie assumed a kamehameha energy blast shooting posture. Concentrating this magic energy inside him, he channeled it to his palm, and tried to lunch out an energy blast, hoping to see something extraordinary.

Plop!

However, to his disappointment, and aside from the sound of of water drops falling into the kitchen's sink from the loose faucet, nothing happened… and no physical manifestation of any sort appeared.

Looking at the rest to see if any of them saw him did the moves; he felt a tinge of embarrassment. Luckily however, everyone was snorting, in a deep sleep.

Letting out a sigh of relief, he focused on his body. He could feel that the magic energy inside him had decreased by a quarter, which was the volume he had just channeled it and discharged it out.

To make sure of it, he summoned his stats.

- Name: Ramie

- Lv.2 Magic Artifact (7%)

- Path: Bloodline Magician

- Class: Subterranean Ghost Tree (Special)

- Magic Energy: 21/29

- Innate Spell: Unknown

- Spells: Morphing (permanent), Green Vine (Rare)

- Unused skill points: 0

As if conforming his doubts, his magic energy value had decreased by 8 points.

'I should be careful from now on, and maintain this energy at full value in all times. Otherwise, it wouldn't be funny if we're attacked and I only have a meager magic energy reserve!'

Adding this mental note, he moved to the kitchen.

Taking out a small bottle of milk and similarly small pack of biscuit from the large bile of food that was stacked on the kitchen's floor, he started having his breakfast.

Under the protection of Reem's summon, Jeffry had brought this food in few days ago from a nearby store.

After finishing his breakfast, Ramie patiently waited for Reem and the others to wake up.

…

Walking up the stairs that lead to the building's roof, Ramie could feel the aura of Reem's summon magical beast intensifies with every further step he takes.

Alongside him, were Lance and Neil. They were following Reem and Jeffry as they led them to the building roof to see her summoned magical beast for the first time.

Since Ramie was the only one that can feel the overbearing aura of the beast, only he was feeling tense.
