Frank was asleep on the floor for a long while, the spectators could not approach him and the officials did not know what to do so they decided to move the arena and continue the duels.
The duels quickly ended after Frank's fight with the huge skeleton and the other Maru Servants were able to get second positions without losing any skeletons in their group.
After the fight ended and everybody decided to return to their activities, Frank was collected from the stage and transported to a building where a dozen or more skeleton lichs were packed.
The lichs observed him for a while, while noting any irregularities around him and they ultimately decided to place him in a large capsule to contain him and observe him further.
A chart was displayed showing the information gotten from their observations.
[Readings
Race: Half Soul Being / Half Human
Health: Very Low
Growth: Underdeveloped.
Note: This body has not reached a full state of enlightenment and is being damaged rapidly.]
The information was vague but highly beneficial to the highly knowledgeable skeleton and they started fixing the body of Frank little by little.
***
A few hours passed before Frank finally woke up in a soft cushion, he was surprised for a moment when he discovered his health bar was full.
He then discovered that the place he was staying was not the arena's floor but a treatment center.
Frank thanked the skeletons for preserving his life while proceeding to go out the treatment center. A skeleton with dark blue robes approached him before he stepped out of the door and directed Frank to his office where he explained what happened to him and what was happening to him. After the skeleton stopped talking, Frank remembered a system information he received the first day he came into New Darkovia.
[ Your skin is not used to this state, changes will occur in 7 days.
It is advised to take care of your skin before then or else a penalty will occur.]
Frank shuddered when he discovered there was no cure to this condition and when he also heard that the only way he could regain his health was to absorb a large amount of natural energy.
The ordinary skeletons could absorb different types of energy to heal their body but Frank was limited to only natural energy because of his class.
Frank sighed before leaving the treatment center and returning to returning to his room in the "Servants Quarters", but before he approached his room a few skeletons were waiting for him at the front of the room, showing him respect and cheering for him. Frank had a light smile when he discovered Berry was okay and then decided to approach Berry.
Berry had shock in his spine when he discovered Frank was coming to him he quickly took a step back, Frank didn't notice this reaction and hastened his steps nearing Berry after a few steps.
Berry tried swallowing his expression and asked respectfully:
[What do you want champ?]
Frank told some parts of the informations he received from the skeleton lich in the treatment center and told Berry his problems.
Berry listened and told Frank carefully that he had no idea how he could be of help but he should meet him in his room at exactly 7:00 AM a few hours later.
Frank accepted and approached his room. Frank replayed the fights he had with the skeletons and could only marvel in awe about the way he participated in the last battle with the huge skeleton.
He also tried thinking about how he absorbed a few experiences after the fight, he thought about it some more and could only come to the conclusion that it was because he won the fight against the skeleton that he got some experience.
While thinking about these, he noticed he had a notification he hadn't viewed.
[Status
Your skill Idleness(S+) has ranked up.
Idleness(SS)]
Hurrying to check what had changed in the skill, he checked the skill description but could not see any notable difference.
Skill Description: Idleness(SS) (Passive Skill)
Due to the way you live your life you feel insecure around other people or beings.
Sometimes this is a good thing other times this is a curse.
Benefits: You own your mind.
*This skill is activated when you are extremely tired, you can use one beneficial skill without meeting the conditions in this state*
Since this skill is highly beneficial to the curse of Idleness a curse penalty has been removed while others has been reduced
When using this skill, 50% of curse will not activate.]
After looking at the status window, he realized that the skill could be used anytime he was extremely tired and that only one skill could be used in that state.
Frank was extremely glad he finally had a skill he could rely on, he looked at the digital clock at the block of his room and saw that the time was exactly 7:00AM.
Frank opened his room door carefully and sneaked all the way to Berry's room door, there he knocked on the door for a while before Berry finally answered and ushered him in.
Berry told Frank he was afraid of him being a zombie and related a little about the history of the zombies. He said:
[Zombies are terrible soul beings who do not respect one another and only exist to war against other races and absorb power from other beings.]
Berry explained that Frank had the same power as them.
Berry said he was thinking that Frank was a zombie for a while, until Frank returned from the treatment center and explained the treatments he was given.
Berry then told Frank:
[Although you are not a zombie, not knowing what you are is equally worse.]
Frank had a downcast expression on his face while trying to tell Berry he was human.
Berry didn't believe him but he still decided to help Frank by telling him that he knew a High class soul being that was conducting energy research that could be beneficial for Frank's skin condition.
