Chapter 11 - The core

Leornars got up and walked towards the depth of the woods,he peeked in and saw a live deer, he smirked.

He summoned his undead's and they rushed surrounding the deer as Leornars jumped high fataly killing the deer, he had one of the knights carry the game to camp where stacian sat still. 

He took a stick and began roasting the meat,after a while of silence he asked " tell me how far is the next nation?" 

" About 3000 miles north is Lurtra kingdom and 3500 is The holy nation of Zeldris " she replied calmly 

He handed her a piece of the meat ,

" I guess we'll go to Lurtra then" he said 

"We?"she asked 

" Huh? I thought you begged me not to abandon you, are you backing down now? Oh well " Leornars said

" No, don't leave me,I'll just get enslaved again" she said sobly

He sighed 

" Basically you are not to be left alone , huh? In another world and I'm a babysitter, not what I had in mind " he said calmly almost sarcastic,

" Another world?, you are a visitor!?'" she asked 

" That's what I was told, originally where I was from there was no such thing as magic or mana, there was magic crystals tho" he replied, when he finished his head instantly ached and a drop of blood fell on the ground, Stacian rushed to him and touched his forehead as a white light eminated and surrounded Leornars,he was breathing deeply then slowly his breathing slowly rejuvenated to normal.

" What ..did you just do to me? " He asked 

" It's healing magic, unlike crystals healing magic is instant and free as long as you can use healing magic" she replied . He got up and summoned Bellian ,he collapsed on the ground as Bellian vanished,he breathed deeply ,coughed twice.

" What's happening to me?" He asked noone in particular 

"What you are undergoing is mana depletion, you have overused the mana you possess, and you began to use your life mana or as it's originally called 'life ki' , it's even a surprise you used it all along without dying" Stacian explained.

"Mana overuse? Depletion? I see" Leornars stuttered trying to get up,he fell down hard

" You need only to rest and not use mana for a while till it replenishes" Stacian added as Leornars drifted to sleep,it felt like hours ,he woke up seeing daylight and stacian's hand on his head 

"Huh?, you have three seconds to explain why you are touching me" he said coldly as he rose, glaring at her with bloodlusted eyes, a red glow eminated from his left eye.

"You...you were in pain sleeping,I had to keep on healing your mind each two hours...I'm sorry if I overstepped my bounds"she said calmly and trembling.

Leornars walked to her and patted her head 

"Hmmmm...you need no permission to ask, do whatever you want" he said as he began to walk towards the river.

"What in the actual hell!!" He said as he left 

" No wonder I had a good sleep, I'd normally sleep only two hours and wake up due to my mental pain, my head would normally hurt to a point bashing my head to the wall for it to calm down,I guess she's not useless afterall" he thought as he cleaned his face.

He heard a growl from nearby he walked over to look down seeing a black wolf with red mane killing a deer, a grin appeared on his face and he leapt down.

He summoned Bellian and a few knights and surrounded the wolf, the knights charged on and a few were ripped apart, Bellian delivered a deadly blow cutting it clean, it moved back and targeted Leornars it leapt up , Leornars took out his dagger, and instantly he heard a scream from his campsite.

" Demon girl!" He said, he looked up and the beast was already on him, gnashing it's teeth, he coughed out

" Your mouth stinks" he mocked it as Bellian rushed grabbing it and smashing it to the wall, Leornars dashed stabbing it in the guts ,he rushed over to the campsite to see a few men tugging stacian away, a dark memory recalled his mother being dragged by the hair,he let out a blood curdling scream and fell on his knees.

The hunters looked back to see him

" Who's the brat?" One asked approachin, Leornars's both eyes glowed crimson red and he mutilated the man by instantly ripping his throat with his hands ,he got up.

" System detecting critical overload, System overload, activating skill, heartless" a female voice said in his head,he began to hit his own head then turned to the other hunters as a red blood dropped from his nose to his palm.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" He screamed as he rushed grabbing the first man bashing his head to the tree as a branch fell,he quickly picked it up and stabbed the man on his neck multiple times, and turned to the last one,a white steam eminated from his mouth, he grabbed the other man smashed him to the tree then kicked him with his knees on the jaw, the man fell . Leornars began to step on his head maniacally till only a pulp remained, he turned to Stacian and leapt on her,she instantly used a holy barrier and shielded herself. He began to try to rip it,she took a step back.

"Divine magic, pure salvation" she said as a white blast hit Leornars to a tree knocking him unconscious,she rushed to him and began to heal him
