[Reward has been granted]
[The next Side Quest will be revealed once ready]
.
All of a sudden, a thick leathery book appeared in my hands, and as I walked behind Aisa and Cy, I took a quick peek inside.
"Orion?! ORION!" A voice suddenly called out to , and when I looked up, I was in a completely different part of the labyrinth, but this ti with Bella joining the group.
I had realized just entranced I really was by the thin pages of the skill book, only allowed to tear my eyes away upon finishing it.
"What's up with you, dude? Are you sick or sothing?" Bella asked as she unendingly helped sit down.
"Uh, yeah… I just… Hey, Cy, use the skill book from before. I want to confirm sothing,"
"For what reason?" He asked, a bit skeptical as he already knew I was up to sothing.
In fact, whenever I ask one of my friends to do sothing, it normally ends in sothing not quite what you expect… and they all hate that side of .
"Just do it. You're going to use it anyway," I responded, and I could see Cy let out a visible Cy before taking the book out of his storage ring, a few loaves of bread hitching a ride on the way out.
"This is gonna take a while, so replenish your energy. Hey, hey-"
"What?" Aisa asked, brushing off Cy's hand from her shoulder.
"Especially you. You need to eat. You are as pale as a ghost right now and if you need to sleep, just sleep. We can't have you dying on us due to exhaustion… do you know how embarrassing that would be?"
"Geez, okay," Aisa muttered before sitting next to Bella and resting her head on her shoulder.
As soon as she closed her eyes, light snores ca from her nose, causing all of us to chuckle lightly before proceeding with our next step.
Bella and I both replenished our energy with the loaves of bread, while Cy imdiately got trapped in the skill book.
He blinked, but it wasn't a reset to the eye, but more like a moistening factor as the pupil dried out.
He seemingly continued to stare through the blink, reading and absorbing the information on each page without much trouble.
"Now, look at this," I muttered to Bella before ripping off a piece of my loaf and slowly moving the piece next to Cy, allowing him to grab it slowly and shove it in his mouth.
"Isn't that interesting," Bella muttered before tearing off a piece of her loaf and chucking it at Cy… who, without looking at it, caught it mid-air.
We both had our fun throwing pieces of bread at Cy, but soon it got boring, so I checked out my new skill.
"[Egg of the Progenitor],"
First of all, I know it's a prince of blood skill, aning it is most likely related to blood, but what it does is way out of my area of thought.
The na gave new clues as to how I was supposed to use it, so the only thing I could do was shrug my shoulders and activate it without a second thought.
All of a sudden, the splattered green goblin blood which Bella had been taking care of gathered in my palm and began to form a green shell spotted with purple blotches.
"Can we uhhhh… can we fry that up?" Aisa asked, her stomach audibly agreeing with her own mouth.
"Absolutely not!" I protested before shuffling away from the starving Bella, who stupidly didn't pack anything but magic items and weapons.
"Oh, co on, just a taste. I even brought so salt and pepper,"
She was slobbering all over the place like a starving dog hoping to get just a scrap of at by begging at a nearby restaurant.
"You brought salt and pepper but no food?" I asked, completely in disbelief at how sobody could be so smart yet so stupid at the sa ti.
"Y-Yeah… maybe… well, I an, I thought you guys were going to bring food, and I wanted to save so space for my items that keep my skin so flawless… so you can't bla , right?" Bella smirked a bit.
"This would work on anybody but Luna and … Tch,"
I clicked my tongue before taking out a hot plate of curry and rice from my spatial storage, making sure not to spill any of it.
Bella was truly panting like a rabid dog, seeing its very first al for the first ti in what seed to be forever.
"*sigh*... There, eat up," I muttered before taking a closer look at the fully ford egg, but Bella was right… cracking it open seed intriguing.
Well, Bella wanted to know the flavor of it despite knowing it ca from goblin blood, while I wanted to see if an actual living thing was being ford inside of it.
After contemplating the decisions I could make, I finally decided to just crack it open.
If sothing terrible ca out, I would kill it and recycle the blood to make another egg, but if nothing ca out, I could just make another egg again.
"I'm not gonna raise a monster," I muttered before tapping it along the hard, stone brick floor, allowing it to crack slightly.
It was surprisingly much more fragile than I expected, and I was easily able to crack the contents from the inside out onto the floor… but there was nothing.
Just a few sparkles of magical blue dust ca out that dissipated into the air despite there being no draft in this musty and slly place.
"Tch… So I actually have to raise what is developing inside… how boring," I muttered to myself before shifting my eyes along the hallway.
"Where are you going?" Bella asked, her cheeks stuffed full with rice and curry.
"So place. I'll be back in about an hour or so,"
