Reincarnated Into A Human? Chapter 62 - Basic Tier Crystals

As Gary was screaming with pain, I could start to see blood trickle down his arm. The red velvet ant was only a basic tier beast, so it was strange to see someone as skilful as Gary get bitten.

Ian was the first one to reach Gary and pulled the ant off with his hands, using all his strength. As the ants front teeth left Gary's arm a splutters of blood went threw the air.

"Hold it still for me," Gary said.

Ian held the Ant with two hands by its side. The ant was trying it's best to wiggle free but Ian's grip was too strong. Gary picked up his sword from the ground and sliced the Ant in half.

Slyvia and Kyle came over to Gary to look at his arm. There were two big punctures the size of ping bong b.a.l.l.s. Luckily the wound wasn't too deep.

"Do you think you can fix it," Kyle asked.

Slyvia looked at the wound closely.

"It should be okay, I'm not a mage so there's a limit with what I can do."

"I'll start with first aid you do what you can?" Kyle said.

While Kyle was cleaning and disinfecting the wound, Slyvia seemed to be meditating nearby, focusing on something. Kyle had finished bandaging the areas where Gary was hurt. Then Slyvia quickly placed both hands on top of the bandage.

"What's she doing?" Dan asked.

"She's using her Ki to help Gary heal, I haven't learnt to do it yet but Slyvia is a quick learner. By infusing her Ki into Gary's body she can activate his cells to speed up the healing process. It's not as effective as a mage but still better than nothing."

Monk started tugging on my arm, he then made a motion telling me to come with him. I and monk moved slightly away from the group just so they couldn't hear our conversation.

"Do you think Gary's been acting strange lately? He would never get hurt by something like a Basic tier, and he hasn't been himself during training either. I think you should talk to him." Monk said while looking at Gary.

"Me, why me? I'm not good at this stuff."

"If something is going on he won't listen to us, but he respects you, Ray. You don't have to do much, just ask him if anythings going on and do your best to help."

I took a closer look at Gary, the bags under his eyes were getting bigger and darker. I could hear him talking in his sleep more. Perhaps I did owe Gary this after he looked out for me for all those years.

After Slyvia had finished healing Gary we went on to collect the basic tier Crystals. Our time was nearly up and we started heading back towards the entrance of the forest.

Altogether I had collected Ten crystals, five had been obtained from the system and five I carved out my self. It wouldn't be long before I had enough money to get new equipment.

We had exited the forest and saw Lancy their waiting, there were a few other groups who had finished and returned as well. After waiting a while eventually, everyone had returned with all their members. Some were injured here and there but nothing serious, similar to Gary.

Lancy then took out an empty brown sack.

"Remember, you all need to donate ten per cent of your crystals to the academy as a tax."

A few m.o.a.ns and complaints were made amongst the student's but everyone quickly lined up and put 10 per cent of their crystals in the sack.

When it came to my turn, I put one crystal in the bag.

"Only one Ray," Lancy said.

"Well, I only got five crystals."

"Only five, impossible. If I find any more on you boy, you will be punished."

Lancy then went to check all over my body and could only find five crystals.

Lancy grunted, "I guess you really are that useless."

Five of the crystals were gained from the system so they were put in the system's storage. I had no idea where they went but they would only appear if I wanted them too, so I honestly only had five on me at the time.

"Where did you hide your other crystals?" Monk asked.

"That's a secret."

Monk and the others had seen me slay more than five beasts so they knew I had used some sought of trick.

It had been a tiring day, most of the students either decided to go to their rooms to rest or visit the blacksmith to sell their crystals and make better weapons for next time.

I myself had another idea in mind. I went up to the roof of the building and looked in my systems inventory.

On top of the systems inventory, I had four basic tier crystals and one Intermediate tier crystal. With the five crystals granted by the system, it would now hopefully be enough for me to max out on my basic tier points.

I decided to do it in a safe and secluded area away from everyone. I wasn't sure what would happen after reaching a hundred points. When the wolf maxed out on points he was given an evolution option. It took him nearly a whole year to finally evolve.

Would something similar happen to me? There was one thing I was certain of though, whether it would change my form or return me to a dragon, either way, the crystals would make me stronger.

As I absorbed the crystals one by one notification screens would pop up.

I had one crystal left, the points seemed to be random between 1 and 10. I had one crystal remaining.

I went and absorbed the last crystal.
