As soon as the message ended Alex felt a surge of power flow through him followed by a stream of pain unlike any he had ever felt.
"AAAHHH!!!" Alex screamed in agony as he watched the boar charging at him but he felt that the boar was slower than before.
Pushing through the pain Alex called upon the ice element present in around him, instantly feeling that the amount of particles around was a lot more than what it was before not just double. Ignoring this strange increase, he focused his entire being into a single shout,
"DIE!!"
With his shout, ice started forming on the ground turning into spike, the boar unable to understand the sudden increase in the strength ran into the spikes without being able to slow down.
"RAAGHHH!!" The boar roared in pain as spikes pierced it.
"MORE!!" shouted Alex as his eyes turned red.
After the shout spikes formed in thin air and then launched themselves into the boar's body.
"raah.." The mighty boar breathed its last as it was skewered alive.
Immediately Alex was assaulted with a barrage of notifications, but he was unable to see them as the constant pain suddenly disappeared and so Alex who was barely awake within all the pain, felt his eyes grow heavy. He heard a faint sound,
"Quick! take him to the doctor!"
"there.." Alex weakly said as he pointed to where Ceaser had crashed before falling into the embrace of sleep.
.....
Alex slowly opened his eyes but was shocked as his vision was filled with blue notifications.
Alex stood up slowly but almost fell over as he felt there was no strength in his legs. He heard the sound of door opening.
"Oh! You are already awake!" Alex heard a feminine voice.
"Ceaser... is he fine?" he asked in a weak voice
"Your friend will be fine, lay down and rest, you need it!" the girl said as she forcefully made Alex get back on the bed. Feeling not even the strength to go against a single person made him believe that it was indeed better to rest as he didn't have strength to do anything else.
Alex decided to go through the wall of notifications infront of his eyes,

Alex looked at his status and understood his condition better. It seemed due to the Last Stand blessing his fatigue had shot up resulting in his current situation. Alex also felt a qualitative increase in his mana after it went past 20, leading him to believe that stats experienced a change every 10 points. He believed his theory to true untill it was proven wrong.
The Limit Breaker skill seemed to be a weaker version of the Last Stand buff.
He also noticed that his teammates had also reached level 1 after the fight with the Horned boar king. He was curious to see what class had they changed to. While thinking about it, Alex went to sleep it seemed that he underestimated his fatigue.
.....
The next morning,
Alex woke up refreshed, it seemed his regeneration ability was doing its job.
Alex went outside his room to see a girl walk towards his room.
"Oh! You can move already! It's great news lets go tell the doctor!" the girl said cheerfully. Alex realised that this was the girl that care of him yesterday.
"Thank you for taking of me but I believe haven't introduced myself, my name is Alex." He said as he extended his hand for handshake.
" I am Lauren, the village chief's daughter." the girl said as she shook Alex's hand.
" Lauren, do you know where my friends are?" Alex asked
" They are in a meeting with the village chief, lets go there I know the way." the girl said before Alex along to meet his friends and the village chief, who held the key to their way out.
