Itâs not that Raineâs strength is weak.
With the support of Monster Skills like Thick Hide Level 3 and White Dragon Physique Level 3 (fragmented), Raineâs constitution had already reached an extremely high level.
If converted into the constitution strength of Combat Professionals, it would be at least at Level 6 Classes, possibly even Level 7.
Itâs just that Freddy chose an excellent moment for his sneak attack, while Raine, after facing Master of the Dark Furnace Lokarâs flying hammer and the breath aftermath from the Ancient Molten Earth Dragon Smarag, was truly exhausted.
This gave rise to the current situation.
"Raine!"
Just as Raine fell to the ground, Laisa quickly stepped forward, catching Raine and rapidly adjusting her balance to gently lay him on the ground.
With reddened eyes, Laisa, calling out Raineâs name repeatedly, clumsily retrieved a bottle of pale red potion from her waist pouch, and poured it into Raineâs mouth.
"Mr. Raine!"
The Druid Maiden Sulfur Vine, despite being in immense pain, bravely pulled out the gray iron sword embedded in her shoulder, disregarding the blood flowing from her wound, and quickly rushed to Raineâs side.
As she murmured a spell, she placed her green glowing palm on the wound on Raineâs chest.
Minutes later.
Raine gradually awakened.
"Hiss~"
He was still dizzy from excessive blood loss.
"Mr. Raine, thank goodness! Youâre finally awake."
"Laisa, Sulfur Vine, thank you."
Raine shook his head slightly and immediately looked at the two women to express his gratitude.
With his constitution, even without treatment, he would eventually recover, but it wouldnât be in mere minutes; it would take at least an hour or two to regain consciousness.
"How long was I unconscious? Letâs leave right away!"
"About two or three minutes," Laisa answered.
"Mr. Raine, your wounds just healed, can you...?" Sulfur Vine hesitated.
"Iâm fine, I worry the Dark Furnace Clan might send people after us again."
Unclear about the extent of the conflict between the Ancient Molten Earth Dragon and the Dark Furnace Clan, Raine expressed his concerns.
"Um... Raine, we probably donât need to worry for now," Laisa pointed behind Raine with a peculiar expression.
Hmm?
With Dark Vision assisting him, Raine turned to look and was immediately stunned.
"Blocked?"
Behind him, dozens of meters away, various-sized fallen rocks blocked the fissure passage.
Itâs not entirely impassable, but anything larger than a cat would find it challenging.
With the Gray Dwarvesâ size, they would need to clear the rocks before having any chance of passing through.
"Yes, during your unconsciousness, the area near the molten cave had severe tremors, causing part of the fissures to collapse," Laisa explained.
"I see."
Raine breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the short-term safety, he was able to focus his attention on Freddyâs headless corpse.
Evidently, Sulfur Vine and Laisa must have been occupied with saving him, and hadnât grabbed the spoils.
Stepping forward two steps, he collected the opponentâs waist pouch and silver sword.
"Mr. Raine, hereâs the other sword of the opponent."
Sulfur Vine came over, handing Raine the gray iron sword that Freddy had previously thrown.
"Huh? These shoes seem to be magic equipment."
Laisa examined them closely, looked at the âclown shoesâ that clearly didnât belong to a Combat Professional, and said.
"Laisa, help me, letâs take them off together."
Raine glanced at the somewhat odd-shaped shoes, and felt a surge of joy.
After all, if they werenât magic equipment, the opponent had no reason not to wear War Boots, instead of opting for such a pair of boots.
"Though the cloak is damaged, it should also be magic equipment."
Laisa helped search some more, finding the cloak with several holes and said.
"Take everything, maybe we can fix them."
Even though the passage behind them was blocked by fallen rocks, after collecting the spoils, Raine and the others quickly decided to return to Mill Town the same way they came.
Several hours later.
After passing through the Rust Monster area, they stopped just before the Armor Crawler Monsterâs domain.
Considering the current state of the three of them wasnât great, and encountering Armor Crawler Monsters unexpectedly could be dangerous, a short rest was necessary to adjust.
As the campfire was lit, without time to gather fresh ingredients, Laisa sprinkled some seasoning and quickly stir-fried the jerky she carried.
After the battles and long journey, eating hot meat was already a great comfort.
Raine ate the jerky while quickly regaining his strength.
But as his peripheral vision caught sight of the spoils pouch, he suddenly realized something.
To avoid making the same mistake twice, Raine quickly opened Freddyâs pouch.
Apart from plenty of Gold Coins and two bottles of dark red Healing Potion, two Scrolls with Spell Glow lay at the bottom of the pouch.
"Whatâs this....?"
Raine picked up one Magic Scroll, and slowly opened it.
The words âIdentification Spellâ immediately entered Raineâs vision.
"This is an Identification Spell Scroll!"
This made Raine raise his eyebrows, pleasantly surprised.
Though he had several pieces of equipment in need of identification, like the Dual Swords, boots, and cloak he retrieved from Freddy, all of which were magic equipment.
But undoubtedly, the most intriguing wasnât them, but rather the silver Warhammer in his possession.
Originally, he planned to buy an Identification Spell Scroll at the Adventurerâs Association in Mill Town to identify the silver Warhammer.
Indeed.
Not seeking an Appraiser.
But purchasing an Identification Spell Scroll!
He had already thought it through.
