After taking a shower, I walked into the kitchen and started making dinner myself and Ashlyn. With me now having twenty recipes in my rooster, there is now a great choice in front of me instead of repeating the same things every few days.

An hour later, dinner finished, Ashlyn and I ate in silence before I went to the training room to do some sword practice.

I have come to Miasmic Paradice as a healer, and according to rules, healers have to spend six days in the hospital, but in my case, I will have to spend only four days plus some hours in three days if possible.

It is a deal teacher had negotiated with the Pyramid; they were quite adamant, but when the teacher threatened to not sent me here, they relented with some conditions; which means now I can spend three days out and just got into hospital these three days for an hour or two if I have time and energy.

It may not look much, but it is quite a sweet deal for a healer like me, three days out would be more than enough for me, and in four days, I could heal and continue with my practice.

With my healing speed, I would have to spend hours in the morning and a few hours in the evening for healing while in rest, I could do anything I want, which is very good for me.

This way, I could slowly build up my strength and continue work in Inheritance Space and Tome while having three days for the blood burning fights.

I practiced for a few hours before I went into Tomb, cleared the test, and tried the 21st recipe level, which was a level above the other twenty recipes. I spend an hour in the Tome before I walked to my new bedroom and slept.

Four days passed by as such, and I did what I had thought. I would go to the hospital in the morning and return in the evening.

I would work for only three hours in three one hour shifts and deal with only emergency patients. I could heal many more, but both Mark and I disagreed with that.

Other healers also had to learn and work under pressure, so there were only emergency patients for me. 

I would spend some time with other healers between my shifts, answering all the questions they have before returning to my cabin, where I could do whatever I want.

"Good Luck," The guard said as I passed through the last layer of protection of the city. "Thank You," I said before stepped into the mist. 

It is the fifth day, my free day, and I am going out; I have been waiting for this day for the last four days, and it is time than I now venture out.

"Wow!" I said as I stepped out of the gate, the scenery in front of me is too beautiful.

The pink mist is everywhere, and when it combines with verdant trees that are brimming with vitality, it became otherworldly. It is nothing; Mira said one could really see enthralling scenery from standing on top of the mountain; from there, one can enjoy the real paradise.

The Pink mist is everywhere, and one theory said that the organism that comes from space all these years ago is still alive. This mist it is releasing is conscious as even after all these years, this mist always stayed confined in the forest, never venturing out.

Which breaks the common sense and cosmic energy from the Space Cracks would try to spread as far as possible.

Not to forget, even after thousands of years, nobody was able to reach the center of this forest where this mist is releasing from. Sorry, two people have gone inside; three thousand years ago, Ramona Hawthorn and Roosevelt went to the core.

From what the teacher said, they both did not much say about it, except for we don't worry the Miasmic Paradice. Still, hundreds of people have tried to reach the core, but not one had been successful; the miasma is too dangerous in the deep.

I would not have believed this organism being alive theory, seriously who can stay alive for more than ten thousand years, but my experience in Hez forest taught me that my definition of being alive is too narrow.

The beast I had fought was seemed to alive in every category, it was alive, but it was also dead. As the hidden being inside me said, I have insufficient knowledge to distinguish between the alive, dead, and in-between.

Until I have that, It is better I should not make any judgment, but there is someone who could make it and could provide me accurate info on what this thing is.

'Do you think that space organism is alive and mist it is releasing is part of it?' I asked and waited and waited some more, but I got no response from the hidden being.

Seeing that I couldn't help but smile, that being will only talk when it wants to, no matter how many times I tried to contact him, he would not answer me.

Chew Chew…

I was just in my thoughts when Ashlyn came out of me, and a look of horror appeared in my mind. Walking in the mist with n.a.k.e.d bodies is no less than suicide. This mist will drill inside you and dry your body like tree bark before turning into the dust.

Before coming here, I have taken the pill, which she refused to take, and had covered my body with my Armor, which has very tight protection that not a single speck of mist could come inside me.

"Ashlyn came back," I shouted just as she came out but to my utter surprise, Ashlyn just handed on her shoulder, her usual place.

Chew Chew Chew

She chirped furiously before I could pick her and shove it into the sealed box I had taken out. 

Her chirp said that this puny miasma could not do anything to her and would not even dare to dare to touch her body; when she said it, her tone was quite condescending as if she looked down on the miasma very much and it is beneath her to even talk about it.
