'Well, that's pretty simple interface' Hira muttered in his head as his eyes fell on the level section.
'Mortal… system what is the number written here?'
[Replying to host, the number represents the strength of mortals that host can gather.]
'…'
'Wait, I know what that means. So… so you are saying that I am as strong as about 500 mortal men?'
This sudden enlightenment bought endless joy to Hira, knowing that there was a way for him to level up as well, was the best thing he had realized in the past few days. Even though he just enjoys his time with his wives and behaves as if he would love to have them protect him all the time, it still pricks his heart whenever he thinks about how his wives will become all strong and powerful, while he will just remain a mortal all his life. The sudden challenge from the 'creator' of system did not help much either.
But now it was different, now he has found a way to increase his powers as well.
'So, I assume, that number is the number of 'friends' I have made. In that case will I continue to increase my powers if I just flow some of my blood every day?'
[Affirmative]
Rose, Misty and Robert had confused expressions on their faces as Hira jumped up in joy.
"Alright"
"Hahahaha… Misty, Rose guess what, your husband is strong as well." He bragged to his wives, completely forgetting about his poor brother-in-law who still could not get up from his chair because of the pain.
"Really, that's great." Rose jumped up and hugged him again.
"Haha… see you can hug me as tight as you want." Hira also hugged her back.
Robert who got hurt when he tried to hug his sister suddenly felt as if these two were mocking him knowingly.
"Knock… knock… Boss, I have bought the potion." thankfully the employee who had gone earlier was a kind lady and she bought the potion to relieve some of his pain.
Hira and Rose who realized that Robert was still hurt hurriedly let go in embarrassment, and asked the employee to come in.
"Boss I have already sent someone to bring Miss Daisy, she will be arriving here soon." The employee said as she gave the potion to Robert.
"Thank you." Robert felt really grateful.
At least someone was kind enough to remember that he had broke his neck.
He immediately drank the healing potion and felt a soothing feeling all over his body, although broken back was still hurting, he could at least cope with the pain.
'What kind of monster has my sister become?' Robert asked in his mind.
You need to understand that Robert is a trained assassin, as such he has often found himself fighting with people on the brink of death, not to mention has faced serious injuries, yet his back was brutally broken from just a simple hug from his sister.
The healing potion, which was able to heal broken bones easily, could not even fix his back, meaning his spines might as well have broken into pieces by now.
For a moment Robert felt a little envious for his brother-in-law and sister.
'No no no… I must not think about it. My sister has become so strong now, and my brother-in-law is strong as well. It's a good thing.' He cleared his thoughts.
…
After a few minutes
"Big sis I am back…" A young lady ran in the office and jumped at Misty, hugging her tightly.
"Daisy… thank goodness you are here, can you take a look at brother Robert, he has hurt his spine." Misty shook her head at this mischievous little physician.
Yes, Daisy is the same young lady who always bickers with Hira, and yes, she is a physician.
She is new in the town and has recently started her clinic, which is running pretty well for a new shop.
She often comes to Misty's shop to buy various potions and materials, and has become good friends with the three.
"Oh, let me take a look."
Daisy who realized that she is not here to meet her sister, but to treat a patient, embarrassingly moved towards Robert.
"Oh god, uncle, how did you hurt your back so much?" She asked Robert.
"Bam."
Robert felt as if is heart was hit by a hammer.
'Un… uncle, how do I look like an uncle, I clearly look very young, I am only 30 you know!'
"Eh… I uh… I fell from the stairs." Hiding his embarrassment, Robert lied.
He could not tell her that he broke his back because his sister ended up hugging him too tightly, right? What would happen to his carrier as a top-grade assassin. No, that can absolutely not happen.
He looked at Hira and Rose with pleading eyes, whose muffled laughter was definitely not very hidden.
Daisy raised an eyebrow, but looking at how Robert's eyes that were literally begging her not to question about it more, she decided to forget about it and got to the job.
…
After about half an hour.
"There, this should do, uncle make sure not to move around too much for a few days."
After taking care of Robert's injury Daisy gave him some small instruction before she was done.
"Okay, thank you doctor." Robert, who has now become numb by the number of times she had called him uncle in the past half an hour, just thanked her properly, although his voice sounded full of sadness.
'Hah, I guess I should retire now.' He thought to himself.
"Thank you, Daisy" Rose also thanked Daisy as well.
"No big deal sister Rose" Daisy said before looking at Hira
Her face changed from all happy and cheerful to a very serious doctor.
"Mr. Hira, this was a very serious operation that I had undertaken, normally I would charge 100 silvers for such dangerous projects, but since you are very dear to my sisters, I shall give you a discount, please send 99 silvers and 100 bronze coins to my clinic. Although it was tough, it was great to have helped you."
Then she nodded her head, understanding at how grateful Hira might be for her kindness.
"Bah… who are you kidding, that was clearly just a spinal injury, there are many physicians who can treat that injury, 100 silvers for that! I might as well give him a body strengthening potion." Hira retorted at how unscrupulous she was.
"Hmph, what do you know? Do you think a body strengthening potion will allow any uncle to be treated by such a gorgeous young lady."
Daisy retorted.
Robert suddenly felt as if the nerves in his brain had suddenly gone dark from poison.
"Gorgeous, where? Who? All I saw was an old woman treating my handsome brother-in-law, I think it's you should be charged for hugging someone else beautiful wife."
Hira jibed back while hugging both his wives in both his arms.
An innocent happy smile suddenly crept up on Robert's face.
'God, thank you so much, you gave me such a good brother-in-law.'
"You… you… what do you even know, just hiding behind your wives, if you dare, then don't hug them and face me yourself." Daisy punched back.
And the bickering continued for another hour.
