Son Of Chaos 47 Rewards

Now that he had decided to leave there was no use procrastinating so he didn't hesitate to clean up the cave he had stayed in and getting ready to leave.

Once again he had to traverse the dark forest before reaching the gra.s.sland. Even though he hurried it was only three days later that he arrived at the gates to the safe zone around the capital.

* I'm finally back. *, he couldn't help but think while being filled with happiness. Even though his stay in the valley and the mountains around it wasn't all that bad it was the way back that had really stressed his mind. He silently swore to himself to never again cross the gra.s.sland without a mount that could drastically reduce the time needed.

As soon as he stepped through the thin magical membrane he was back in civilization and the system informed him that certain options were once again unlocked like the shop and teleport option which wouldn't work in the wilderness.

He then hurriedly teleported back to his room at the campus and without wasting even a second ran into the bathroom.

He couldn't wait to get rid of his clothes that he had now worn for nearly two weeks. And even though they were still clean because of the enchantments on them it didn't stop him from feeling disgusted by them. It wasn't a rational feeling but it still existed.

After throwing the clothes aside he then stepped into the shower and turned on the water. The feeling of it was.h.i.+ng over his skin was heavenly and not comparable to that of was.h.i.+ng in a waterfall.

Grabbing a bar of soap he then thoroughly cleaned himself until his skin was red.

"Finally I am feeling clean again."

He then left the shower and put on some other clothes consisting of a simple jeans and t-s.h.i.+rt. Since they were wider than his uniform it gave him the feeling of being free and unrestrained.

Taking one look at his uniform he had thrown into a corner he couldn't be bothered to care about it and as such just left it lying there for now.

After cleaning himself up he now once again felt like a human being and he proceeded to call his mentor.

"h.e.l.lo mentor."

"Hey, Ivan. You are back?"

"Yes. I just got back.", he didn't mention the hour he had spend under the shower as he thought that it would better not to tell him that.

"Haha, let me guess you just came out of the shower."

A flash of surprise appeared in Ivans eyes but it soon vanished. He had slowly gotten used to his mentor seemingly being able to guess his actions.

"Yes.", he could only admit.

"That's normal. Everyone does that after they come back from the wilderness.", his mentor seemed to guess his feelings and appeased him, " So now that you are back come meet me at the Beluga so you can get your missions rewards."

After saying that he ended the call.

Ivan once again stood before the door of the Beluga. This time when he pushed open a waitress greeted him and offered to lead him to the room his mentor was located in. He wondered why the waitress didn't ask for his members.h.i.+p card like last time. To satisfy his curiosity he asked the waitress the question.

"You members.h.i.+p card is from this cafe and after you entered it connected with our system and informed us about your status and in your case your mentor. And since your mentor made the request to directly bring you to him in case you enter the cafe we know what to do.", the woman patiently explained.

"Oh, then this only works for the cafe the card is from?"

"Yes, because of security reasons the card will only connect with the system of the home cafe."

"Then if I enter another cafe I have to show my card?"

"Yes, and that is the only thing you have to do. So at another cafe you only have to inform the staff of your status. Anything else is unnecessary."

It seemed like it was easy to stay anonym in other cafes than the home cafe but he wondered how they checked if the owner of the card was really the one holding it. But after thinking about it a bit he realized that there should be some kind of enchantment on the card that ensured it.

Before he could ask the waitress another question they arrived at the door to the room which she opened, leading him inside.

"You are here.", his mentor greeted him and let his gaze rove over his body. He then nodded in satisfaction. "Seems like the adventure did you good."

Ivan didn't know how he arrived at this conclusion since he thought that he looked like always.

His bewilderment must have shown on his face since his mentor laughed and the waitress to let out a small giggle which she had tried to suppress unsuccessful.

Van Bergen looked at the waitress and asked, "Do you want to tell him or should I?"

Seeing the way his mentor spoke to the waitress prompted him to take another look at her and he realized that she was the one that had brought them their drinks last time. He wasn't sure of her name but it seemed to be Julia or something like this.

"Then I will Sir.", the waitress nodded at his mentor while smiling gently. When he saw that Ivan thought that there was something going on between them.

"It is your aura, Sir. When you came here before you didn't have any but now you do.", seeing the lost look on his face she then continued to explain.

"Aura is what we call the subconscious effect we have on our surroundings. For example people that have killed will acc.u.mulate killing intent which then seeps into their surrounding creating the feeling of danger in others around them. But of course there are other things that make up your aura it is just that in most cases a persons aura contains at least killing intend as well a feeling of power."
