Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Warning

When we arrived at the guild Luna went from a bored face to a horrified face. She ran from the desk and like magic came with a first aid kit. A chair appeared out of nowhere and I was getting treated with first aid. She even used that one medicine that makes a burning feeling.

She worked diligently to patch me up. She did it with a sad look. It must be annoying for her to take care of me. Ow! I hate the chemicals that make my blood feel like it is burning. Like magic in a way I was done getting patched up.

"What happened? I thought you would come back after 5 skeletons." Luna said with a face that has puppy dog eyes. Animal People know how to pull my heartstrings.

"There was one of those big-boned skeletons. And we fell and made a loud noise. This attracted all the skeletons in Sweet Rose. OR at least the ones close by." I said while lying a little bit. I didn't want to throw Bern under the bus.

Not after he carried 4 bags all the way to the guild. He also didn't complain a single time. He might be old and retired but he still knows how to work.

"As your preferred worker, I request you take the rest of the week off. You need time to heal. I better not see you here trying to work." Luna said angrily. I guess I will listen to her. I need to get to reading the books I bought.

I bet she is just worried about me. She doesn't like seeing people getting hurt. I guess I should learn first aid. I don't want her to freak out every time I come back hurt. I mean being an adventurer is tough work. Humans and Animal People die all the time on the Job.

I feel really bad seeing her in a bad mood. I can't tell why I feel upset when she is upset. I just hate seeing her specifically in a bad mood. After I got patched up I gave her the 5 lower jaws and the quest paper to Luna. She stamped it and slid it into a drawer.

"I have bags full of bones to sell to the Adventures Guild". I said with a smile. She asked to see all the bags and quickly went through all the bags full of bones. With the amount of money that was brought out, I was surprised.

"It seems like your group killed 41 Skeletons which includes a higher-ranked skeleton. Your reward is 40 gold, 10 silver, 95 copper, and 900 ingots," Luna said with a small smile. Wow, this is a lot of money. I did work hard for it so I guess this is deserved. I put my hand near the money and activated my skill. The money vanished and a notification appeared in my head.

"I hope you will not get hurt. We have a day to hang out on Friday." Luna said while I was thinking. Oh yeah, we have a date on Friday. I forgot about it after fighting for my life. I am glad she reminded me.

"Oh, I think with all this money I need a break anyways. Also, my muscles have been hurting me for a while." I said while thinking about looking at my status. I proceed to open up my status and was filled with some horror. I have never seen a warning like this. I am sure others haven't talked about it before.

I clicked on the plus to see that I guess the status screen likes to shorten things or simplify things so I don't see a wall of text. I also clicked on my other skills and their description was given to me when I clicked on it.

So yes I guess. It likes to save room when it displays various things. That warning scares me. I basically shouldn't do anything to give me stress. That includes intimacy. I was going to go get more sin points but I guess a break is needed.

With everything wrapped up Bern and I went our separate ways and when I got home I plopped onto my bed. I am just tired after today. I don't even have enough energy to eat. To think I would be passing off the chance to read as well.

I just will take a five-minute nap. I mean power naps are the best. I can definitely wake up from a five-minute nap. Oh gosh! That thinking is bad!
