87 Part 3
He had completely recovered from the sciatica that once plagued him.
It couldnt have been sothing like that.
Could it be that he had been affected by one of Karens lighting bolts?
Haruki shook his head.
In that case, his body should have sustained so kind of damage as well.
But there was no damage. That wasnt the pain caused by a lightning strike.
It was as if his head wasnt attached to his newly leveled-up body.
He was sure sothing was wrong.
Convinced of that, he began taking the dead Werewolf apart.
Then he looked for his next target.
Once again, Rare threw another potato stone to lure a Werewolf, and a new battle started.
This ti hed be more careful.
Conscious of the situation with his body, Haruki played it safe so as to not overdo it.
He parried the Werewolfs attack, then cut its arm lightly.
Since he wasnt at his strongest, he only managed to make a small cut.
I feel no pain now, though
Haruki was able to attack with his usual moves, probably because he moved his body carefully.
After making sure his body was okay, Haruki put his strength into his limbs and approached the werewolf.
The next attack would be done at full strength
Gahh!!
Once again, severe pain ran over Harukis body like a truck.
The werewolfs claw approached Harukis neck, which was stiff in pain.
Ugh
He tried to dodge it, but the pain wouldnt let him.
During that ti, the claws continued to get closer and closer.
Just before its claws pierced into Harukis neck
Esta jumped.
Spinning in mid-air, Esta repelled the Werewolfs claws.
Using the montum from blocking the attack, Esta bounced back to Harukis waist.
At the sa ti, Haruki stepped back.
*Vrrooooom!!*
*Ratatatat!!*
Matching Harukis actions, Karen and Rhea attack the Werewolf at the sa ti.
The Werewolf, who was shattered by the onslaught unleashed by those two, let out a sad cry as it died.
Is sothing wrong, Karaboshi?
She seed to have realized sothing was off.
After the battle was over, Karen hurriedly sprinted towards Haruki.
Frustrated that he couldnt move well, Haruki shook his head while looking down.
Are you okay?
Ah
Your movents seed a bit strange, are you not feeling well?
I dont know.
Did she think Haruki was injured?
Karen seed worried as she held her staff close to her chest.
Behind Harukis back, Rhea tapped his shoulder lightly.
Her gentle tapping seed to be her trying to say Dont overdo it.
Nothing happens if I move lightly, but whenever I put all my strength into it, it hurts a lot.
Are you sick? We need to find a doctor!
Karen went pale and was taken aback.
*pat pat pat pat*
Rhea seed to be putting a bit more strength into her patting.
But I dont feel any pain if I do anything else. Even if I went to see a doctor, I wouldnt be able to explain whats wrong with .
Going to see a doctor was hard.
Whenever soone had a cold or sothing like that, they could get rid of it with a town doctor, but otherwise they would have to go to a big city.
And even when they did go to a big city, hospitals there wouldnt have as much equipnt as they did before the Stampede.
Hospitals in Tokyo may be able to get the sa level of examination as before.
But just barely.
Unlike Tokyo, Sapporo was a suburban city.
There was no way he could get a proper examination done there.
To make things worse, Harukis symptoms were too unclear.
He didnt know what the source of the pain was, and light movents would cause no pain at all.
The only thing he knew was that whenever he tried to do sothing with all his strength, the pain would appear and it would hit him like a jolt of electricity.
Haruki couldnt tell if there had been any other changes in his body.
dical care wasnt that perfect that it would be able to tell what kind of condition he had just with nothing more than a sohow my body hurts sotis.
It was easy for Haruki to imagine a future in which he would not understand anything even if he took an appointnt, had a dical examination, and took the ti needed for tests and getting diagnosed.
With that in mind, it would be faster and more effective to simply rely on the dicine used by adventurers to improve or alleviate Harukis symptoms.
Though he was worried about unwanted side effects
Having defeated a total of two Werewolves, Haruki decided to play it safe (or rather, Karen and Rhea made him do so), and left the dungeon.
Since Akane had been present in many adventures, she would probably have so idea about Harukis illness.
Expecting that, Haruki went to Akanes shop.
Haruki told her symptoms to Akane, who was lting in the heat of the sun.
Do you know of any dicine that can relieve these symptoms? If possible, Id like sothing that improves my condition. But I dont care if I have to take the worst painkillers.
When Haruki started inquiring about dicine, Akane, who had been leaning sloppily against the counter listening, suddenly changed her complexion and stood up straight.
Contrary to the prefabs heat, Akanes expression was cold and sowhat serious.
Would you be willing to retire as an adventurer?
