Triiffic-Soul: Can I Be In Control?-Chapter 66 – Healed Enough

Chapter 66 – Healed Enough

Anna spent the rest of the day looking for a home, and eventually, they did find one.

It was a single room in a house near the western edge of the city. There were four other rooms in the house, and two of them were being rented as well. It was far enough from the apothecary and hunting guild for Syrus’ liking.

While they were renting, buying a house outright wasn’t out of the realm of possibilities. Well, they didn’t have the money to do that currently, but after saving for a little while, it would be an achievable goal. The question

[Do you think continually renting different rooms might be better?] (Luna)

They only just made themselves comfortable, but Luna brought up the topic immediately; not that the others had an issue with that.

[Eh, maybe.] (Syrus)

[I see the appeal…] (Eva)

They discussed it earlier and gave ideas, but they never really confidently settled on one idea. Buying a house met more of their requirements, but saving the money for that was a concern for them, as it would be better to send that money to Elly and the children.

[It really depends on how many things we collect.] (Syrus)

[Things?] (Eva)

[Yeah, just things. If we have a lot of shit, then it’s going to be a pain to move constantly, and if someone see a person, even if they look different but they are carrying the same three bags or whatever, it will also draw eyes to us.] (Syrus)

[That’s reasonable, but we could do a mix, especially if we are out in disguise. We can simply rent a room somewhere else instead of returning to our current main residents.] (Luna)

[Yeah, something we should discuss more later when the situation comes up for it.] (Syrus)

They explored the town a little bit more but chose to rest the night away. Tomorrow they were going to pursue the shops for potion supplies and start making trades with Ash.

Eventually, eight days passed, and it took a while longer to get all the ingredients Eva wanted for potion making. Big companies had a lock on the main commercial supplies, so it took more time to find those who were willing to sell them. Posting requests for the local ingredients at the hunter guild was also redundant, as they could do the work themselves later.

Eva did sell a few potions to Ash during the week, all easy-to-craft ones, with promises of some more advanced potions for healing when the funds came in. freewēbnoveℓ.com

“Argh, I think the body is finally healed… enough.” Syrus groaned, happy, but annoyed about the progress of their recovery. She ignored the pain and grabbed a pair of clothes to wear.

[Can we get some statistics for your report?] (Luna)

[40%?] (Syrus)

[That doesn’t sound good…] (Eva)

[‘Cause it’s not.] (Syrus)

[So are you sure we are healed enough?] (Luna)

Even though Luna possessed Moonlight and had extensive knowledge about healing people, she was out of her depth when it came to their body’s current state. Some parts she could tell were injured, others she saw nothing wrong but Syrus could show her the problems with them.

[There are a lot of ups and downs.] Syrus began to explain. [So we are a lot stronger compared to our child body, and we have healed to the point that physically we are as strong as the normal farmer girl in their late teens. But there is still plenty of damage that has to be recovered.]

[40% recovery means average farm girl?] (Eva)

[The complete body rework did a lot, but I still can’t use Blood for any physical enhancements.] (Syrus)

[Question, does the strength you are referring to consider any use of Blood attribute enchantments?]

[No.] (Syrus)

[...I see.] (Luna)

Eva, listening in, asked, [Should I make something for us?]

[...I would rather not pour more mana into the body, so if you know any non-mana-rich healing potions, then sure.] (Syurs)

[I see…] Eva went quiet and thought to herself.

According to Syrus, mana damage was a real danger to their current physical health. So even blasting multiple large attacks could be an issue, not that they would need to do that.

[...Going over all the points, you are making it seem it is not advisable to start doing quests?] (Luna)

Syrus finished getting ready, they were still wearing ordinary clothes, but she had some hard reinforced wooden plates over her vitals and forearms.

[Maybe, and kind of, but looking at it objectively, I do believe we should be fine.] (Syrus)

Syrus didn’t want to go out now, but she didn’t know how long the healing would take for it to reach a point she was happy with. Syrus was fine to fight the injured, but the damage they were currently facing wasn’t something she wanted to worsen. However, objectively, they would be fine, and wasting more time strolling the city was the nudge that pushed Syrus over the edge to make this decision.

[Okay then, I’ll trust you.] (Luna)

[Same here.] (Eva)

Syrus made her way to the farthest hunting guild, it was simply named Brown Oak Guild, and from the chatter gathered from their outings, it seemed to be the calmest. They hoped nothing would go wrong.
