For a while Violet was just standing there in silence, unsure of what to say. She didn`t fully understand what she should do in such a situation.
After about ten seconds, she came to her senses and said in a flustered voice: "Master...you need to go to the hospital right away!"
Stroph probably would have agreed with her suggestion, but seeing Cristo's present, he decided not to the doctor: "Don't worry, I'll be fine, the wounds are not fatal and I have a way to heal them, I have one request." Stroph's voice was calm and at the same time weary.
"I will do whatever you want!" Violet instantly replied, she wanted to help her master in some way, for Stroph didn`t look well at all.
She thought she was going to be asked to take the medicine, get a doctor, bandage wounds or something like that, but Stroph's next words just stunned her.
"Please wash my clothes, as you can see I'm covered in dust, dirt and blood" Saying this, Stroph began to take off his dirty clothes, he dumped everything on the floor except his coat, which he carefully placed on the couch.
Then he added: "You can just throw everything in the laundry if you don't know how it works there are instructions, but this coat should be hand-washed and be very careful, it's very precious to me, well, I'm off."
Without waiting for Violet`s answer, Stroph headed for the bathroom, taking the syringe from the box.
Seeing her master leave, Violet sighed slightly and threw everything but the coat into the washing machine, after which she began to look at Stroph's quirky, black, long coat with interest.
On the way home, Stroph had already discussed everything with "Snow White Darkness" and they came to the conclusion that the best solution in this situation would be to clean the blood from it by hands, not by some machine.
When Stroph entered the bathroom he didn`t immediately wash himself, he looked at the syringe in his hand, even with his special sight he could not see anything remarkable: an ordinary syringe, ordinary material and some incomprehensible solution.
He was worried about whether it was poison, or something like that, it might sound paranoid, but it was better to test it than to share the living space with worms later.
He pondered how he could test the contents, he could buy some kind of rat, but that would be too much trouble and there was a small chance that the poison in this syringe was highly specialized and only worked on humans.
After a few minutes of deliberation, Stroph had a plan, he had such a great skill as "Evaluation", remembered about it, he immediately used it and to his joy a window with information about the item popped up in front of him.
[Syringe with a special body- strengthening solution]
[Rarity - ordinary]
[Effect - when using the syringe, wounds no more serious than an open fracture will be healed with incredible speed, as well as all your characteristics except Luck and Spirit will be increased by 1]
Seeing the description of the syringe, Stroph sighed with relief and as he read the last phrase a bright smile shone on his face.
He instantly got the answer.
[The second use will increase all your characteristics by 0.1, the third by 0.01, the fourth will do nothing]
Hearing the answer, Stroph was slightly upset, but he quickly came to his senses, because if every use had such an incredible boosting effect, everyone would be doing injections with such syringes.
"Well, I guess it's time to test its effect" After these words Stroph used the syringe without a shadow of doubt and injected the entire contents into himself.
The effect was immediate, it was quite painful, because the bones and tissues began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the pain was not unbearable, clenching his teeth and hands into a fist, Stroph was able to bear it without screaming.
He had to endure for quite a long time, about 10 minutes, and at the end of the healing process, Stroph felt himself so fine, as if he hadn't received any wounds, and the notice, that appeared at the end of the treatment, made him really excited.
[All Characteristics Increased by 1]
[Congratulations! You received common level history - "Doping", the effect - drug`s effectiveness increased by 3%]
[Congratulations! You received level 6! The possibility of increasing characteristics was opened. Current experience - 167/7500 exp]
As always, Stroph was pleased with the history he received, no matter what kind and what is its effect, each history and title makes him stronger or gives him some bonuses at certain points and that is the most important thing.
The new feature was interested him a lot and he immediately started asking Bookmark about it:
Just a moment later, a window with all the information appeared in front of him.
[Name: Stroph White (History Collector)
[Race: Man]
[Level - 6 (167/7500 exp)
[Titles - 3]
[Histories - 10]
[Strength - 14]
[Dexterity - 16]
[Endurance - 13]
[Intellect - 18]
[Luck - 0]
[Spirit - 0]
[Skills - 2]
[Master, now you can choose to buy and increase the characteristic you want, except for Luck and Spirit.]
Stroph was incredibly happy, this new feature, even if the prices are incredible, you can always accumulate enough and become stronger.
[Increasing your strength from 14 points to 15 will cost you 250 total points, the price will be the same if you want to increase from 15 to 16, the same price is the same for all other characteristics, but only until the characteristic becomes 20, after that the price will increase greatly].
Stroph knew that 20 points was the boundary set by the system separating a creature equal in power to the second rank from the third.
If all his characteristics will be 21, he would be considered as a third rank fighter, but a false one, as he hasn`t had no Spirit yet.
.
After these words, Stroph began to examine the healed wounds, there were no marks, bruises or scars left on his body, everything was just perfect. His ribs didn't hurt, and his right arm didn't cause wild pain when he moved, a gift from Cristo that was truly impressive.
Finally, Stroph began washing off all the dirt and blood, the warm shower had a restorative effect, he was able to relax after such a serious fight and the thought that he would soon go to bed made him happy.
After about an hour, Stroph finished his shower, changed his clothes and staggered to his room, which was across the hall from Violet's room.
Once inside, he went straight to the bed, collapsed on it with no energy and fell asleep almost immediately.
