"Hmm... That was painful. Oof!" Janette's body started trashing the bed she was put on by Eric while Nana was keeping close attention to her in case she woke up.

"How do you feel, honey? Are you ok? you fell unconscious for a while..." Nana's voice seemed unconcerned but her body language told another story. Her arms closed to her body as she closed in slowly.

"Thank you, Nana. I'm fine. I was trying a few new things during training, I just didn't expect it to go this way haha." Janette told Nana this but her attention was on another thing at the current moment.

Right in front of her, she started seeing a light blue square pulsating floating in front of her...

The moment her attention focused on it, it opened up a small text window.

Janette furrowed her eyebrows and pushed the window to the side momentarily she still had Nana right in front of her so she couldn't pay attention to it at the moment.

"Are you sure sweety? It's fine, I'm here if you need me. You are still young there's no need to rush things ok, be careful." Nana said as she touched Janette's hand softly, Janette's hands were still red and a few blisters were starting to appear due to the burnt marks...

Although Janette felt that Nana was lecturing her she could also understand that Nana only did it out of a place of care so she could only smile a bit in response.

"I'm really fine Nana. I just need to rest for a little more. And I will be ready to climb mountains with my hands again!" Janette said while pushing her closed fist into the air... "Auch..."

"Hmhmhm. Okay dear, I will leave you be." Nana laughed a little bit and left after kissing Janette's forehead.

Janette recoiled a little but allowed Nana to kiss her at the end, she still had difficulty with displays of affection because of Marcus' previous life...

[Now, what is this...]

[It looks like a login site... Weird things have been happening since I kind of electrocuted myself... Again...]

[Firstly that weird space and now this... Let's see where this goes...]

[My User Name is Janette.]

[The hell? What's this Ultimate Fantastic?] Janette looked around but everywhere she looked the display followed...

After a small sight, Janette had no option but to toy around with this screen.

[Open Stats]

[This feels like some kind of joke. Let me see if I understood correctly. This thing compares my physical fitness to the average Adult Human... I guess those numbers are percentages then? So if I'm right then I'm 20% as strong as the average adult... That's not good...]

[I half guess it's because I'm not an adult yet and maybe the Average adult is stronger than I thought.]

[Well at least I have a direct way to understand how pitiful I am.]

[What about the other tabs? Open Virtual Space.]

A small window with a picture of a grassland appeared in front of her. And a few subtitles could be seen below.

[So, this is Jail? It's the place I was trapped in a few hours ago... I guess this weird thing wasn't working correctly back then so that may be the reason why I couldn't get out?]

[The time dilation thing may mean that time runs faster inside but I will have to check later]

*GRRR* Janette's stomach started rumbling loudly.

So she decided to check the rest later because hunger doesn't wait...

Leaving her room she could see Nana and Eric talking about something outside so she decided to eavesdrop like usual.

"Prepare everything, we will need to move soon," Eric said with seriousness.

"They are closing on us way too quickly recently, in the past, we didn't need to move so frequently" Nana replied as she started to tidy up the kitchen.

"Are we moving again?" Janette came out of her room looking at Eric. Her burnt marks and bruises looked a little better.

"Yes, and I know you were hearing us, be careful with that habit of yours..."

Janette flinched.

"Umm... ok, hopefully, they will leave us alone already, it's getting tiresome."

"Yeah, kiddo I think so too. but I don't think they will stop anytime soon..."

*BAAAM*

A loud crash could be heard outside and the noise started rising.

The whole village started gathering in the middle of the town following the noise.

Eric went out to look at the commotion and he saw a group of people and one of them had an old woman by the neck...

These people were all dressed similarly in white and blue robes, they were two men and a woman, and the weapons at their waist showed that they were dangerous.

"Nana, grab Janette. They are here." Eric said as he went back inside with one of his hands on the hilt of his sword just in case.

"They had never been this violent but maybe their patience has run out, pick Janette up and run south, I will buy you time. thankfully they shouldn't know that she exists yet..."

~~~~~~~~~

*BANGGG*

The old woman was thrown to the ground with force and she rolled a few times, scraping her skin on the ground.

"Tell us, Where is he!" The woman in the group shouted angrily.

"We know he's here, where is he!" A paper with a portrait of Eric when he was a bit younger could be seen on the woman's hand

"Sword Demon Eric! We know you are here, If you don't show yourself these people will suffer because of your cowardice!"

The woman shouted as one of her men approached the same old lady again and picked her up with one hand.

But suddenly his hand separated from his body and fell to the ground.

*Splat*

"You called?"
