Year 1036 of the Zhang Dynasty - The Northern Forest - Bunker
"Is there something wrong?" Tang
He saw the change in my face.
"No, it is nothing" Linjian
(She leveled up?)
[It seems that way]
(Did she awakened the Book of Appraisal too?)
[No, take a better look at her status]
(...Page of Enlightenment)
[Yes, that is what awakened the system in her]
(How did it happen?)
[I suppose that it was the blood transfusion]
(That was yesterday, does that mean it has a delay of one day?)
[Or maybe it was the organ treatment, we need more info]
If I can repeat this... the future of this world will bend into a direction never seen before. Saving these people was the best choice possible.
(Yue POV)
I open my eyes and find an unknown ceiling.
"What..."
How did I get here...ah!
"It is not here"
The sword slash of Mo Cheng is not there, how...
"Yue!!"
Tang grabs my hands.
"Tang? Tang!!"
I hugged him, he was alive!
"Yue"
"Whaaaa"
We hugged each other while crying for an unknown amount of time.
...
...
"How did I survive?"
After calming myself, I asked him while sitting on the bed.
"A hermit saved us by defeating Mo Cheng" Tang
"A hermit? Do you mean a wandering cultivator?" Yue
It was strange but some of them existed in this world.
"No, I couldn't feel any spirit energy on him"
Eh?...
"Maybe he was hiding his aura?"
Tang denied that by shaking his head.
"He was able to treat your wounds even though you aren't a cultivator"
Cure a non-cultivator? That is impossible.
"Also, he uses strange abilities and seems to hate cultivators"
A commoner capable of defeating a cultivator...maybe I could become his disciple?
"If he saved me I guess that I should thank him someday"
I hope we meet him again.
"You will be able to, after all we are in his house"
"His house?!"
Does that mean that I was using his bed?
"But we should wait until he awakens, it is about midnight right now"
...
After that, he told me in detail what happened when I was out cold until the door open and a man entered into the room.
He was on the borderline of being called old man, his long unkempt hair has some white hair same as his long beard. But even though he looked old, his body looked trained enough to beat any youth man.
The hermit wore a leaf shaped silver pendant that stands out from his tattered clothes and on his face there was a white eye patch covering his right green eye.
"Good morning, I am Linjian"
He seems friendly.
"Good morning, I am Yue. Thank you for saving me"
I will never use the Mo family surname again.
(Linjian POV)
In the morning of the next day I could hear that she awoke and I went to talk to her in my old bedroom.
"Good morning, I am Linjian"
It looks like she was sitting on the bed and talking with Tang until I opened the door.
"Good morning, I am Yue. Thank you for saving me"
"Don't mention it"
[Judging by her smile, she seems fine. But I appraise her just to be sure]

She is almost in perfect shape, or even better because of the Page of Enlightenment.
I give the two of them replicas of their clothes that my transmutation created yesterday.
"Yue, can you walk?" Linjian
"Yes, I am fine" Yue
I need to test what can she do.
"Then wear those clothes and follow me outside" Linjian
"Of course, I lived enough time indoors"
...Tang followed us outside. We were now in the forest, but after my hunts there were not danger of being attacked.
"Yue, I am going to be blunt" Linjian
"About what?" Yue
"While you were sleeping your body changed" Linjian
"Changed?" Yue
"...?" Tang
She looked at her body.
"Yesterday I awakened in you new abilities. Abilities that grants you the power to fight equally with a cultivator if well trained" Linjian
"I have that kind of power..." Yue
She looked at her hands.
[Her face don't seem to hate the idea]
She is smiling right now.
"But honestly, I really don't know to what extent you adopted my system" Linjian
"System..." Yue
"So I will like to test you now" Linjian
"Do it, I am willing to test those abilities" Yue
[She really likes the idea]
"Then lets start by seeing your status, say appraisal while focusing in your body" Linjian
"Appraisal" Yue
"..."Linjian
"..." Yue
"... nothing happened" Tang
"Did some information appear in your head?" Linjian
"information? not really" Yue
(Weird, do you have any ideas?)
[Well, she doesn't have the Book of Appraisal to use appraisal]
(Does that mean she cant see her status?)
[Maybe it doesn't work like that, make her say status]
"Yue, this time say status" Linjian
"Okay, status" Yue
After she said that her face changed. Looks like this time it worked.
[Just like an RPG novel]
"Wow" Yue
"What happened?" Tang
"As he said, information appeared in my head" Yue
I explained the parameters to Yue as Maria explained them to me once.
