Chapter 439: Best Bros!
"... Someone is stressed, but she has a point," Rain rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "We should start working on the projects that will force the enemies to not think about fighting us… it is also time to do some business with the nearby cities and towns."
"Seadir looked like they were going to make a big move soon. Shouldn\'t we join them?" Jori asked. "They helped us a lot, after all."
"I will talk with him eventually about what he has in mind, but we can\'t do anything that will risk the whole kingdom or innocent people," Rain explained. "First of all, let\'s weaken those who support Joanis that stayed behind and then… see what will happen."
Truth be told, Rain was tired, too… even though he didn\'t let that be obvious by others who could see his expression. Only someone like Terra could since she knew her healing powers and had healed plenty of people trying to look tough when they were about to die.
In the end, Rain slept for a full day before he finally woke up starving… when he went to have breakfast, he found everyone eating outside. The houses were too small for so many people, and it was better and more refreshing to eat out with a lot of people…
"Hey, kid, it has been a while," Lotto said when Rain arrived.
"Uhhmm… sorry for the trouble I had caused," Rain forced a smile.
"It was bound to happen. Besides, I arrived at a good time, right?" Lotto said while pointing to the leather and scales of the ice dragon. "I can make a lot of master pieces with that… materials of ice dragons have never been used in the human kingdom… probably."
"I guess I need you to apologize for making you lose your home and shop, and what better way than to make you work for us?" Rain shrugged. "We don\'t have enough people that can fight, so you can totally focus on quality over quantity."
"Those were the words I wanted to hear," Lotto grinned.
On the next day, Lotto began to work on the items for the group… Rain\'s new forearm guards and shin guards were the first ones to be forged since his oldest ones were about to break… all thanks to numerous suicidal attacks of the special soldiers.
While Rain waited for those, he just relaxed at home… at least as much as he could do, he also kept using his healing magic to increase his recovery speed. There were a lot of things that he needed to be done, so recovering w single day faster was worth the hassle.

"I survived against the ice dragon while keeping a lot of free points unused… perhaps I wouldn\'t have ended up like this if I had used them," Rain thought. "Wisdom and my mana are getting too high, so I should focus on the parameters…"
Maybe Rain\'s low luck was the problem, but he wasn\'t sure about that since he still always managed to survive..
More strength wasn\'t the problem, Rain could always buff himself with his skills and techniques, it seemed that the real problem was his defense…. Increasing his endurance and Vitality seemed like the right thing. Still, even if he chooses one of them and issues all his free points, Rain will only increase them by twenty percent at best.
"I guess I need to equip all the skills that increase my health and level the hell out of them," Rain tonight. "Once I recover, I should train my body to become even tougher."
After one week, Rain\'s body had been completely healed and he felt alive like never before. It was like getting over a cold the next morning. He immediately equipped his weights and proceeded to resume his training.
"You have been saving my skin a lot, I need to repay the debt instead of taking your help for granted," Rain said.
As Rain mentioned the need to repay his debt to Terra in front of the group, a sense of curiosity and anticipation seemed to spread among those who were listening. It was clear that they were all eager to hear what Terra might request in return for her invaluable assistance and unwavering support.
"It would be helpful if you stopped getting beaten up that much," Terra replied. "Don\'t worry about that. We are friends, right?"
"Of course we are!" Rain said and then gave a side hug to Terra before their fists bumped. "Best bros, forever."
Terra laughed a little before accepting the fist bump, and everyone else facepalmed… it was her golden chance to ask anything, and she did that… in any case, Rain immediately Increased the weight on his limbs to the point that his steps could be sensed by everyone around. Then he left the house and started to do some handstands… that was the perfect way to increase his vitality.
When that training was over, Rain was covered in sweat, and his body was emitting a lot of steam. Still, he quickly cleaned himself to have a meeting with the others, but then Seadir appeared.
