Chapter 54:Dormant state (1/2)
Yman pushed his body to get up. Weirdly, he felt like his stamina had fully recovered already.
He clenched his hands repeatedly and figured out that his stamina had fully regained truly. He was about to stand when his eyes landed on an empty vial laying on the ground. He picked and smelled it.
”This is...!” He muttered with wide eyes and he frowned in puzzlement. The smell on it was familiar to him.
|What is a stamina potion doing here? And who was that person who just left now?| Yman had some questions in his mind. He could also taste the smell of potion at the tip of his lips and tongue.
He then glanced around and noticed that he was inside a medical tent. Looks like he was carried here after he passed out again.
He believed that it was Keremi and Bob that carried him here. Like always.
He could not return to the training grounds. Although his stamina went back fully, the accumulated fatigue still exhausted him.
And he needed more rest. He felt hungry also. All the food he ate yesterday was donated to the toilet last night. And now his stomach started to rebel.
Yman took a mobile device and contacted Sistela to give him permission to access the Cyber Storage. Magicians who were not with their deity could access their Cyber Screen after getting their deity's permission.
Although Yman had his own Cyber Screen, he needed to used his Black Mana first. And it's not easy to activate it.
After getting permission, he quickly took his lunch box from inside the Cyber Storage and gnawed his lunch ahead of time.
Someone entered the room right after he finished eating his lunch.
”Miss Pai?” Yman was surprised to see Ms. Pai enter the tent.
Ms. Pai also had a surprised face, ”Oh, I thought you passed out, but seeing you now with a grin of food on your face, I bet you faked out losing your consciousness. So that you can have your time eating your lunch in advance. Hehe,” Ms. Pai giggled.
Yman suddenly wiped his face with his hand, ”No it wasn't like that, regardless, did you see someone came out from here?” Yman denied shyly and asked when he remembered the leaving figures of a girl and a deity a while ago.
”No, I didn't, why? Did someone come here?” Miss Pai asked curiously.
”Hmm... yeah, but I only saw their leaving back. I could not tell who it was since my vision was blurred at that time.” Yman explained.
Ms. Pai narrowed her eyes, ”Hm, did that person do something to you? Did you feel something unusual right now?” Ms. Pai fired consecutive questions.
”No, it's not like that. Here...” Yman denied and handed the empty vial to her.
Ms. Pai took it and smelled it.
”A potion?!” She muttered.
”Stamina Potion to be specific,” Yman replied.
”This type of potion is expensive.” Ms. Pai thought that that person who just came here might have fed this to the resting Yman without him knowing.
”It's weird that someone had the heart to feed such an expensive potion to you. You must feel gratified.”
Ms. Pai said while handing back the empty bottle. But Yman declined it and said, ”Can you check if there are some foreign substances mixed on it?”
”Ok, but you must come with me.” Ms. Pai replied and urged him to come with her.
”Eh, is something wrong?” He asked.
”There's someone that I want you to meet.” Miss Pai replied.
”Hmm...” Yman didn't answer right away and checked the time first inside his Cyber Screen.
Seven hours and twenty minutes in the morning was shown on it, ”Okay!” He nodded.
He followed Ms. Pai. The two of them walked in the hallway and stopped in front of the door of one of the rooms inside the outer layer building.
When they stepped inside, Yman's eyes were greeted by a row of apparatuses. Monitor screens of different sizes could be seen around. And he noticed a door, towards a room where he could see through a glass window. And inside that room was a stale bed. A woman of about 20 years old and in white clothing was sitting in a swivel chair in front of a big monitor screen.
Yman suddenly felt a bad premonition after seeing the inside. He froze where he stood and wore a sour face.
Ms. Pai felt Yman's change in the face. She was taken aback when she saw his grim expression on the face.
”Y-Yman, c-calm down.” She did not expect him to have such a reaction after seeing the room.
”Ms. Pai, what is the meaning of this?!” Yman bellowed.
