*Next Day*(Early Morning)
After that little flustering situation and realizing that everything was alright Nancy started to notice something off, the slight pain that she was feeling in her ankle was completely gone.
Then she looked at Navir's body and notice through the holes in his clothes that his wounds were completely healed up."Is my saliva that good?."She murmured as she touched her lips.
.""What was that?"".
.""Nothing!"".
Nancy sighed, she then twirled her ankle.'But I didn't put any on myself though, whatever this is good, we have to leave this forest.'She thought.
."Rude bunny girl, protecting me?."Navir asked curiously, though he already knew he wanted to hear it from her mouth and see what she said.
Nancy hearing that blushed shyly, she twirled a strand of her hair in her hand as she avoid eye contact with him."Um well, of course, you saved me after all, plus..."She said as a warm smile appeared on her face."You came back for me, didn't you...."
."...I guess...I did."Navir said seeing her expression, he looked up through the trees thinking back to Whitney's warning, she told him not to do anything dangerous."..I did it again."
She stared down at his face becoming lost in his eyes but quickly snapped out of it as he noticed her gaze, she looked away."Um, I think we should leave now before a dangerous demon appears again, my town's just out of here."She said as she pat his head gently.
."Mm, a town, ok then we will go to this town."Navir said sitting up from off of her, in doing so he also noticed that even though his clothes were torn to shreds, his body completely lacked both pain and injury.
Infact his body felt even stronger now, curious he decided to throw a glance at his status....

Navir stared at his updated status as his eyes widened just a bit, he gained an extra 9 stat points in his vitality, he didn't even have to level up, was that a thing, he could probably gain stats just from training.
But now this has thrown his calculations off again, that means that a person's level wouldn't be the only factor in their strength, much like the Demons, special abilities, race and whatnot could play a big role.
Training could play a role, knowledge and mastery could also play a role, like a child born at Level 50 put up against a level 30 master of martial arts or a sage, the child would still be crushed like an ant.
.""Sir, are you ok?"".
Navir was broken out of his thoughts by a concerned bunny, she touched his face."You were just staring off into space blankly, I thought something had happened to you."Nancy said with a sigh of relief.
."I'm fine rude bunny girl."Navir said calmly as he reached to pat her head but somehow his hand fazed through her and she jumped back with a yelp like he stepped on her tail.
Nancy breathed hurriedly like she was in a panic, her face beet red as she held her steaming bunny ears."N-no we can't do that yet, I-I-I'm not ready, at-at least not in the bushes."She said with twirling eyes looking dizzy and hot.
."Hm???."Navir tilt his head in confusion at how she managed to avoid him but shrugged afterward not minding it, they first had to get out of this forest."Ok, let us find a way out, do you know the way?."
Nancy seeing him not flustered felt a bit disappointed but she shook her head deciding to get serious also."*Ahem* Yes, I am a hunter after all, as I said before I was looking for herbs in the forest but I accidentally went too deep and stumbled into Ogre territory."She said sighing, she looked at the sun then her ears twitched a bit.
Nancy closed her eyes and coped her hands over her ears.""Diverse Sound""."She muttered as she started to glow in a sparkly white sheen like confetti, with her body as the center soundless invisible waves stretched out.
Navir frowned as he felt a tickle across his sensitive skin, instinctively he knew it was magic waves and now that he thought about it he haven't look at Nancy's status once since he'd known her.

Navir's jaws couldn't help but drop at this shocking revelation, picking up his mouth he glanced between the concentrating Nancy and the status screen, was he seeing things.
.'...Hm.'Navir was mildly surprised but he then noticed something else, even though majority of her stats are up in the hundreds and is the most he'd seen so far, she actually possessed almost no combat ability in the grand scheme.
From her strength she was just at the peak of a human from earth as far as he saw meaning a level 1 human from 9Ether, her agility on the other hand was above Bors and just below Commander Duel who's is at 60.
Which would explain a lot seeing that she managed to evade and escape Bors for so long but because of her weak body and strength she can't run forever so she was eventually caught being saved by him.
Then her 5 dexterity, meaning she has the control of an ordinary human, it might seem alright but with her speed being so high that's like a hindrance cause she can't control it, it's just a waste since she could probably only move fast in one direction.
It only gets sadder from there, her Int was 100, which is monumental, at least if you are a Mage and has some magic spells, as the higher your Int the more control of magic and the higher your proficiency in magic skills.
But with her possessing no combat oriented magic skills it was totally wasted on her as even her Racial Skills of being some kind of divine bunny was sealed along with her unique skills.
But it just continues to be more pitiful, her Wis was 100 as well which every 1 wisdom for her gives 10 Mp like the demons and along with her 100 Int she should be a beast to be reckoned with but once again her lack of attack magic was her downfall.
And it proceeds to be worse, Navir even started to feel bad for her, her luck was probably a mistake and was supposed to be -100, or maybe the fact that she survived so long is because of her high luck.
Cause she did have some good luck with the fact that it would be extremely hard to kill her with a vitality of 400, which basically gives her 4,000 hp, even Bors would find it hard to kill her.
That attack that he was hit with by Bors was dripping in magic power, he could feel it overflowing so Bors definitely used an ability but instead of making it lethal he incorporated more of the kinetic force and knocked him away.
So even though he used a great deal of power he made it non lethal and only shaved off a thousand hp, Bors is a smart Demon, he probably knew how much hp he had.
In that aspect then Nancy is quite powerful, but going back to bad luck not just for her but probably for everyone in this world that didn't come from earth, they lacked a way to distribute their stats, an Items storage and a quest function so it seemed.
So with the automated stat distribution it probably distributes it based on race, fighting style, class and training, like an assassin class is more likely to get stats placed into agility and dexterity, while a Mage would be wisdom and intelligence.
The quest function though in Navir's view probably just had something to do with his increasingly reliable computer thingy with the pixel element and all that other crap, so it governed him as a player in a game, while to the natives of this world, this is just life.
While he was in thought Nancy was just about done with her reconnaissance, she opened her eyes looking in a direction."Sir, I found the way, over there is the area with the most diverse noises."She said with surety.
."Huh, why choose the direction with more demons, I don't understand."Navir was in a state of confusion at her logic, it would be more logical to go in the opposite direction wouldn't it.
Nancy looked at him for a little then she realized."Oh, sir you are not from around here are you, this Demon Forest is the territory of powerful intelligent demons and weaker less intelligent ones."She said explaining."The weaker ones usually avoid the stronger ones territories, that's partly why we haven't encountered a demon yet."
."Hm, more variety of demons in one place means weaker and lack territory, I see."Navir said now understanding her stupidity, it wasn't as stupid as he first thought.
Nancy nodded proudly."Yes, we are currently in the Demon wolf territory, so we will soon reach the outer forest, but we'll have to run cause those demons are starved."She said doing a little jog on the spot to warm up.
Navir calmly breathed a sigh, he now knew another thing, people of this world can't see their own status and people of his world can't see others people's status either.
."Alright let's go Sir, if we are fast we should make it out in half hour or so."Nancy said with excitement jogging on the spot almost defying gravity as it took longer than usual for her to touch the ground.
*Shhhh*!!!
Just like that Nancy was gone at top speeds leaving Navir in the dust, Navir had a deadpan on his face as he took off running at a considerably slower pace, his agility was only 10 after all.
He probably should've put some stat points into agility, but it's too late to dwell on it, he continued along with Nancy purposely slowing down to keep up with him.
~~
~4 Hours Later~
After four hours of continuous running, being attacked by serious demons from young Demon wolf's, Sickle Spiders, Family Ants and many more the two finally made it out the forest.
Navir and Nancy were now on an endless grass plain enjoying the fresh breeze and safety, or at least Nancy was, Navir was on the ground hyperventilating, he'd never been so tired.
."Haa haa haa phew."Navir released an exhausted breath, he suddenly opened his mouth and drew in a large amount of air, then he held his breath for 6 seconds before breathing out.
He repeated this process for 10 times, this was a technique of the military, it is used to decrease adrenaline, stop panic attacks, send more oxygen to the brain and slow down the heart beat even to a state of false death.
Soon Navir's heart rate had returned to normal and he could at least sit up comfortably, he gave a glance to Nancy who was still completely fine.'I take back my words, she's not useless.'He thought to himself rising to his feet.
."Sir are you ok now, you're so pale, was the centipede that stung you on your hand poisonous or something?."Nancy asked worried seeing his terrible expression, she reached up and touched his forehead.
.""Recovery Magic:Restoration"".
*Fhs*!!!
Nancy performed another spell, Navir gazed down at her calmly as his body glowed green, he tilt his head."If you had this magic before, why not heal your leg."."He asked allowing her to feel up his body.
."I wish I could, unfortunately it's not that simple, this is not healing magic, it's just a restoration spell used to remove foreign substances from the body, plus it uses alot of magic, I can only use this 8 more times."Nancy said squinting as she concentrated on maintaining the magic and massaging his body.
Navir hummed in acknowledgment."I see, so about 100 mp, probably 9 more times if you didn't use that other magic."He said calculating, but still wasn't that too much for such a basic spell.
."Huh 100 mp, what's that, um but well yeah you're right, with full magic I can use it 10 times."Nancy said just about done, she smiled brightly."You're as good as new."
Flexing his arm Navir nodded in appreciation."Thank you, but that magic, how do normal people manage it with requirements so high?."He asked her curious, that would be inconvenient for demons let alone humans or demi-human who were more physically oriented.
."Well, I'm kinda..special you see."Nancy said with a shy expression, she was embarrassed praising herself, she twirled her hair."Other than me, the only person I've seen use Restoration is the church's Pope when he did a public healing in my town."
Navir raised an eyebrow at."The Pope, so it's rare for someone to possess Restoration Magic is it?."He asked in thought as he tapped his chin.
Nancy nodded, a sheepish smile on her face."Yes, it's incredibly rare, most people don't have access to such magic, it requires a natural affinity, that's why it's so uncommon."She said
."Why is it that only certain people have this affinity and you just happen to be one of them?."Navir questioned, genuinely intrigued by the topic, since coming to this world he had many questions that he would like to be answered.
Nancy pondered for a moment, before answering."From what I've heard, it's a combination of factors, race, for one."She said thinking of some more things to say and not let the conversation fall flat.
."..There's also the element of Classes, the Pope possesses a Divine class said to have been granted to him by the Gods."Nancy said thinking back to the Pope, he was just so powerful."It's name is Divine Hierarchy, allows him to borrow power from God."
Nancy then glanced down at her feet."And me, I guess I'm just lucky, I somehow managed to be able to use it, none of my race can."She said uncertainty.'I'm really not anything special.'
Navir in his own deep thought didn't notice her self doubt."So, it's not something that can be learned or acquired through practice?."He asked inquiring deeper not bothering to mention her race.
Nancy shook her head a bit flustered."N-not exactly, while it's true that not anyone can learn these type of magic, some classes at higher levels have sub classes and whatnot, maybe you might get lucky."She said hurriedly trying not to hurt his feelings.
Navir rubbed his chin, he understood that Nancy probably thinks of him as a warrior but only he knew he was also a Mage."I guess that means I won't be healing myself anytime soon."He said, Mages were still offensive type not really support.
Nancy smiled reassuringly."Don't worry, there are other ways, potions and herbs."She said then twirled her hair again shyly."Plus you have me, I may not be able to use true healing magic, yet but I can still assist you in other ways...."
Navir's expression didn't change at this."That's true, I can indeed use you for now."He said nodding, his words remaining innocent.
Nancy on the other hand had a whole other thing going on, she blushed her cheeks turning a shade of pink."I-I'm glad I could help sir."She said fiddling her toes together.
As they stood there in silence enjoying the peacefulness of the grassy plains Navir looked over to Nancy suddenly locking eyes with her making her feel butterflies in her stomach.
Navir gazed into her eyes gently, Nancy's heart was beating so loudly in her chest that she could hear it in her own ears."Nancy, thank you for protecting me before."He said sincerely, after fighting a war all for nothing it still felt good.
."Huh oh y-yeah no problem, you also saved me before I couldn't just leave you there."Nancy said with a smoking head becoming even more flustered and avoiding eye contact.
Navir smiled grateful."Thank you, but I still want to do something for you, right now, do you want a ride?."He asked staring into her soul.
."Huh..Huh..HUH..ri-right here, right now *blush* Ahh I don't thi-think I'm prepared for t-that, I haven't bath or brush my teeth or floss my ears or or kya!."Nancy went into a panic as her eyes swirled with dizziness as she sway from side to side almost passing out.
Navir turned around kneeling down."Come hop on, I'll give you a ride to the town, even if you aren't tired it might be fun, just like before."He said to her calmly.
With an audible shattering of a fragile glass heart Nancy stood becoming like stone, her eyes dry and deadpan."..ah...I um see, a ride..on..your back..that's what you meant...ok... I um..guess.."She said feeling like a bottle of cold milk has been thrown on her head.
."Hmm, what's wrong rude bunny girl?."Navir asked glancing back at her."Don't you want to ride me anymore, you did it before.?."
Nancy felt a bit irked."Could you please stop saying it like that, you're giving gold candy coins to the poor."She said shaking her head with a sigh but soon enough a small smile appeared on her face.
."I might as well, just don't bump my head into anything this time."Nancy said jokingly as she climbed onto his back hugging his neck gently.
Navir stood up with her casually."No promises, but sure, hold on tight."He said looking into the distance.
."Hahaha ok."Nancy chuckled nestling her head into his neck with one of her hands down to his chest, but smiled looking into the distance and her her eyes shifted to discomfort."...now onto my town, Cattlin town...great."
And just like that, with hopes destroyed and newly made dreams crushed for a certain bunny the two resumed their journey, ready to face whatever challenges awaited them ahead.
