Hearing Shane, Frer halted her steps because she neither expected to see Shane nor that he would ask her such a question.

"Come with you?" She repeated blankly after him and retreated a step because she didn't feel comfortable being stared at by Shane whose eyes were full of ambition and enthusiasm.

However, even worse were the other Valkyries who had also heard Shane's words and their imagination ran wild

"Do you want to snatch our sister away?"

"Is that a confession??"

"Little sister, run away with him! Aisha can't hold you back!!"

"Take him or we will!"

Suddenly, goosebumps appeared on Shane's skin when he heard the other Valkyries scream out everything they visualized in their head without giving a second thought.

Frer's cheeks turned red in embarrassment and the several dozen pairs of eyes lingering on her made her feel more uncomfortable than under normal circumstances as she grasped his wrist to rush towards a more secluded place.

Upon entering an empty room, Frer's red cheeks seemed to burn even more when Shane felt her glaring eyes pierce straight through him.

"Can you please not create misunderstandings by talking like that?" She said in an annoyed tone, and Shane could only lift his eyebrow, as he spoke in self-defense.

"Why? I want you to come with me, but I don't have any other intention than to learn more about bloodlust and the Slaughterer's Path technique!"

"Then say so, please? My sister's are perverts, and I believe you already know that!!"

Smiling lightly, Shane couldn't help but think that teasing Frer was funny.

However, shaking his head, he thought that he was not here to tease her but to ask her for a favor.

"Okay, sorry. I can clear the misunderstanding if you want, but I guess you only worsened it by dragging me in this room! Let's not mind that for now. Can you guide me on how to create bloodlust, or are you busy with something? Or do you intent to stay on Igra to recuperate from the last trip?"

Hearing that Shane wanted to clear the misunderstanding, she sighed in relief, only to turn around in order to take a look at the room she had entered.

"Oh noo….." She just mumbled desperately as she noticed that she entered her own room where no one except her slept.

Trying to control her emotions and not show how anxious she felt, Frer turned back to Shane, to answer his question after clearing her throat.

"I don't have much to do until Aisha is fully recuperated. As long as you don't want to enter dangerous Basic dimensions or areas with superior peak-awakened beasts residing inside, I can gladly help you.

To be honest, I think each of the Valkyries might help you after they see how many gold coins they earned through you!"

Frer's mind was still full of nasty thoughts she only had because her sisters were perverts trying to manipulate her as she saw Shane's radiant smile, which caused her to gulp.

'Can't he smile less? Otherwise, others might really misunderstand something!' She thought inwardly as her red cheeks began to burn again, after she heard Shane's next words

"I only need you. That will be enough for me! I think three days are enough for both of us to recuperate from the short expedition, or do you need longer?"

Somehow, she didn't want to look into Shane's eyes because she thought that it was way too dangerous as she only shook her head faintly.

"Three days are enough."

Seeing this, Shane nodded his head in satisfaction and bid farewell as he said that he would clear the misunderstanding with the other Valkyries

Once Shane left the room, Frer took a deep breath before she slapped her own forehead.

"What is going on?"

Leaving the room, he was immediately eyed by several Valkyries with a mischievous smile on their face.

Frowning, Shane explained everything clearly for once.

"I only asked Frer to help me out with the bloodlust because she is the only one who learned the Slaughterer's Path technique, please don't interpret too much into it.

This will only make others uncomfortable!"

Upon hearing what Shane said, most Valkyries lost their interest almost immediately, only for a stubborn one to say

"You can say that, but it might still be something else! Just have a nice honeymoon with our sister and bring her back in one piece….hehe."

His eyes turned cold at the Valkyries words but there was nothing else for him to say and instead of bothering about baseless rumors that he had cleared already, it would be much better to recuperate in the next three days and increase his cultivation once again!

Now that he had a world seed to feed, he couldn't really use mana stones to refine his body because the radiating mana particles would be absorbed by it, which would be good and at the same time slightly annoying.

This only told him that he couldn't refine his body under the best circumstances inside a building where only a marginal amount of mana particles would be able to pass through.

However, on the other side, he could refine his body much better in an area with a high mana density, like the tranquil forest, thanks to his world seed's mana absorption which he could control through his title [One with the World(Unique)].

With the abilities [Mana absorption] and [Regulation] he wouldn't even have to purchase mana stones to cultivate or sustain his body refining if the surrounding mana was enough!

The only thing he had to be careful of was that he didn't absorb too much mana which would either obstruct others or even damage the [Tranquil forest] he wanted to visit for the next three days!

'Maybe I can regulate the world seed's mana absorption so that it only absorbs the bare minimum mana in its surroundings to bloom and transfers the remaining amount I need to refine my body?

With this in mind, Shane thought that he might not damage the forest's mana production and others who want to breakthrough.

At the same time, he might even be able to save a few gold coins, once he figured out the perfect regulation inside the Tranquil forest!

However, before he rushed towards the Tranquil forest, Shane wanted to restock his nutrition solutions and also a few mana stones for the worst-case scenarios.

If he didn't have enough mana in his surroundings and his world seed's stored mana was used up, he would have to be able to supply his world seed with enough mana so that it would at least survive without withering.

Opening the system's holographic screen, he went to the Shirai academy's shop and purchased 100 [Tier-1 (Uncommon)] Mana stones which should be enough for the moment.

Additionally, Shane decided to upgrade his nutrition solutions as he purchased 10 [Tier-1 (Common)] and 25 [Tier-1(Uncommon] of them.

This might already be enough for him to attain a flawed Apprentice physique, but to Shane, it was only the tip of the iceberg.

Paying 1470 gold coins still hurt him, but he could at least stay rest assured about his world seed's survival with the large number of mana stones he purchased and at the same time refine his physique.

After he received a notification to go to the warehouse to pick up his stuff, Shane took care of everything before he rushed towards the [Tranquil forest] without another detour.
