Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Status.



"What is the matter?".

Soma held his face and exhaled. His thoughts start to shift toward the entrance exam that should be announced tomorrow after the auction. Still, here he was, being bedridden for about a week without any information and trying to contact the Akabane family. He doesn't know what kind of excuse he should make.

"...Nothing".

"Looking at your expression. It seems quite serious for your face to stiffen like that".

Lawrence, who could grasp Soma's dilemma in sight, approached the bed and then submerged her waist onto the soft bed while looking at Soma's distressed face. Soma, on the other hand, knitted his brows and felt slightly annoyed because she could see his inner thoughts. But he shook his head and let out his thoughts.

"When will the Hero Academy opening ceremony begin?".

"...Tomorrow".

Hearing a lax response from Lawrence, Soma's shrunken gaze bloated, then she clutched the white sheet that covered his lower half. He slid the sheet to get out of the bed. But before he could open the sheet, a soft touch from Lawrence's hands halted Soma's action to remove the sheet.

Like a snake, one of her hands travelled along his skin, caressing it gently, making his spin shudder in delight. Her palm rested on his left chest.

The flower scent that came from her numbed Soma's brain, as his heart began to throb from seeing her beautiful figure up close, locking eyes. He shifted his attention and tried to leave the bed, but Lawrence insisted.

"Please move away. I have something important to do tomorrow".

Lawrence didn't utter a single word. The hands that were placed on his chest began to clutch the cloth. She bit her lips and hesitated to open her mouth.

"... I think it's difficult for your current self".

"What do you mean?".

Soma knitted his brows as he didn't understand what Lawrence was trying to tell him. He keeps his gaze forward, looking at her eyes, probing for an answer. Lawrence, who receives his gaze, sighs, and with trembling hands, she removes the sheet that covers his lower body.

From half of his calves under, his right legs were gone. His missing leg was being wrapped in white cloth. Lawrence, who saw his state, turned her gaze to the side, looking at his side profile, which expressed a dumbfounded state looking at his lost limb.

"...I am sorry I couldn't do anything about your limb".

"So, it was like that".

"Yeah, I am afraid..".

Before Lawrence could finish her words, Soma, who certainly felt his storage was dangling on his neck, connected his thoughts and took out the item he had saved in case something like this happened.

His right hand began to emit a faint light, which invited Lawrence's curiosity. Then from his right palm appeared a vial made from glass, filled with a magical fluid in rainbow color.

"That is?!".

Lawrence saw the item blank momentarily as her eyes followed the vial.

Soma brought his missing leg closed before unwrapping the bandage on his legs. Then, after his leg was exposed, the new skin already covered the wounds, Lawrence probably using potion but its appearance was pretty gruesome with the remain of his thorn flesh and exposed bone making the wound looked unnatural.

He opened the lid, exposing the suppressed scent inside, making it exploded into the atmosphere. A sweet and flowery aroma spread into the room, clearing the fog clouding their minds.

Soma puts the lid on his lips and slowly raises the vial to his mouth until it lets out a drop that enters his mouth and then travels to his throat. A surge of warmth travelled down his throat before it spread to his whole body. His body emitted a rainbow-colored light, which then began to concentrate around his missing legs.

The light that gathered began to reshape itself to the form of legs, and then, with a touch of miracle, his missing leg was restored.

Lawrence, who saw the thing happen with her own eyes, opened her eyes wide, for this was the first time she witnessed the legendary item that had never been found in the market.

"It turned back".

Soma straightened his right leg, gave it a few twists of its ankle and clenched its finger. He found nothing wrong, and he felt no discomfort whatsoever. So he closed the vial lid before storing it back to the storage.

His lips spread as he was satisfied with the performance of the elixir because just one drop could regenerate lost limbs.

Lawrence, beside him, whose mind was still in turbulence, opened her mouth.

"...Soma, what was that?".

He turned his gaze to meet Lawrence, who was still absentmindedly gazing at his right leg.

"Well, it was an elixir".

"...Elixir, I see. So it was that legendary item".

Elixir, as Lawrence implies, was a legendary item which can regrow a missing limb. It also had the effect of restoring a person from fatal injury or in a critical near-death state, and it could even cure any incurable disease or illness.

The item in question had already gone from the market, and it was considered a legend because of its rarity and amazing effect. In fact, Lawrence also tried to seek one in the world, but she couldn't find it.

One of the reasons it was so rare in the market was not because it was hard to find. It could be found inside the deepest part of the dungeon or gate if one who found it was lucky enough to obtain it. The reason it disappeared from the market was because instead of selling it, they might as well keep it for used purposes because of the amazing effect it had.

There is also another reason for that, but Lawrence shook her head to get rid of her scattering thoughts, and she pressed the matter about the item.

"...If I may ask. Where did you get it?".

Soma raised his eyebrows, but he didn't want to exhaust himself, so he told her the truth.

"I found it inside the trial gate in Japan".

"Trial Gate, Japan. Could it be?".

"Yes, I am one of the survivors in that gate".

"...I see".

Lawrence began to stare longingly at Soma's necklace when she tried to open her mouth. A loud grumble escaped Soma's stomach, stiffening the people who heard it.

Soma realized that he was being bedridden for a week. He caressed his stomach and let out a protest. Lawrence, with her open mouth, began to come back to her senses. She shook her head to the side and dismissed the thought she had.

"It seems you are hungry. Let me prepare something for you".

"...Are you sure about that?".

"Don't worry, please don't be restrained. As I said earlier, the reason I brought you here is to thank you. So don't hold back and eat to fill your empty stomach".

"Then, I will take up on your offer".

"Please wait for a bit because I will prepare the food".

Lawrence stood up from the bed. She lifted the corner of her mouth and then turned her back, leaving the room. With a dry thud from the closed door, the room turned eerily quiet.

Soma brought himself to sprawling his legs to the floor. It's been a while since he has checked his status.

Upon witnessing the current status he had. Soma breathed a sigh of relief because the pact that entangled his fate with that woman disappeared from his title, and he could say goodbye to the restraint that binds his soul.
