I lose 200 health in total after the bleeding stopped thanks to the bleeding resistance skill stopping it in time.
Aurora lays me near a tree and consumes the soul stones she carried with her, after looking around in case anybody could be hiding.

"Iris, wake up," she shakes my body softly, in order to not cause me pain.
I let out a moaning sound as I wake up, and then open my eyes remembering we're still in the woods.
"Trouble?" I ask softly gazing slowly around us while some drool falls from my mouth which I clean with my clothing.
"No, but we should leave and go rest at home it'll be safer than here."

"You're looking stronger Iris," my sister says after carefully examining it which makes me smile faintly upon hearing her words even though deep down I know I'm extremely weak.
She helps me get up and then grabs the bag, we head home without encountering any problem, after some time, we arrive home and we head inside the room, I lay down on the bed resting while looking at Aurora.
"What're you going to do now sister?"
"I think I'll see how far I can awaken with all the soul power I've got," she transforms into a grimoire.
"Alright, I'll be here," I reassure my sister with kind words, and as soon as I finish talking, a dark aura surrounds her for a while, and then she speaks after returning to human form.
"How'd it go? I've exhausted my soul power completely."
"Let's see, status," I focus on the bottom of the screen to find the counter for the next awakening rank.

"134 out of 200, it's not that far," I say while smiling at her as she's bound to become stronger upon going for higher phases.
"Another 10 skeletons," she laughs while looking at me noticing my body in a not-so-good shape.
"Ugh, as long as they're not as strong as that last one," I frown while turning my eyes to look at the window, causing them to turn into a lighter green tone than they already are.
"Weren't you the one that wanted to become strong Iris?" She teases me watching the skin of my body recovering slowly.
I roll my eyes and turn my body to the window side then reply to her softly. "I will do my best to become stronger, by the way, sister if you feel like walking would you like to deliver the quest? It's the two small bags I left at the room door."
"Sure you can heal up while I do that, you need anything else?" She looks around in search of the bags that contain the items.
"No, but thank you for asking Aurora," she gets both adventurer cards and heads to the guild with the two black bags.
A while later she arrives at the receptionist," hello Aurora, how can I help you today?"
"Hello, I've come to deliver this quest," she gives him the quest, the cards, and the bags.
"Let's see what we have here," he reads it to know how to handle the reward.
Quest
Rank: F
Collect sephy herbs from the west forest.
You'll be rewarded 5 points and 40 copper per herb.
"Very well, the herbs are in these bags I assume?"
"Yes."
He spends a while counting them.
"Exactly 38 Sephy herbs which equal to 190 points and 1520 copper, I'll update your cards and get the money."
He then returns with a bag of money and two cards which the man delivers to the girl and voices out loudly getting the attention of the closest row of the adventurers.
"Congratulations to you and Iris, you're now both rank E adventurers! Currently with 348 points, to further rank up you'll need 400."
"I'd like a new quest in preference in the west forest as we know the woods well enough."
"Very well, in that case, we do have a client that works for the church, he wants some horns from beasts called horned rabbits, you should be familiar with them due to this herb quest, yes?"
"Yes, I've slain some of them already."
"Perfect, in that case, I just ask that you kill them without damaging the horns, the better the horns quality the better the reward."
"I'll keep that in mind," I take the quest, the cards, and the bag.
"Have a good day Aurora, and send Iris a hug, from Hugo."
"Will do, thank you."
'People sure like sister,' she thought while picking the bag up with a smile.
"Oh if it isn't Arara," Aurora then turns around finding some familiar faces.
"Eliass?" With an innocent expression she teases the cute girl in front of her, the party members of Elise hearing that nickname started laughing at their companion.
"Ah, don't call me with such a name you meanie."
"You started this time around," Aurora smiled coldly yet playfully.
"I've reached rank E with 250 points today! How are you and Iris progressing?" She asked happily remembering Aurora's sister.
"We're almost at rank D."
"What!? No way," she snatched the cards from Aurora's hand and read them."
"Oh my goddess, how did you two got this high so fast?"
"I think it was mostly the 40 Sephy herbs sister gathered at the west forest each was worth 5 points."
"Ah, these guys only take slaying quests which generally gives fewer points, since we're fighting F ranked monsters but in exchange, I should be higher level than you!" She looks at me high and mighty.
"What level are you?" Aurora snatches back the cards while noticing the faces of the young adults behind her.
"I'm level 7! You can now praise me, peasant!" She smiled from cheek to cheek feeling superior even though they're both in the same social rank.
Aurora smiled and then said," you're still 2 levels behind," she walked past her to the exit leaving the group dumbfounded as they've partied together before.
She then turned around and shouted at Aurora, "I'll surpass you soon enough! Say hi to Iris for me!"
Upon hearing those words Aurora waved by raising her hand the one holdings the cards without turning back.
