Chapter 17 - 17 – How Long Will She Cry?

When I lay down, I opened the window and started to observe all my Status, my strength and agility remained a little low, but my spells were already at an acceptable level.

'What is it that is better to come up here?' I started looking between my skills and the strength, agility, and magic points. I would be able to level up all of them, but I wasn't sure what to do.

I was still not satisfied with my strength, so I seriously thought about injecting some points here, but at the same time, I also thought about focusing all my points on magic ... That was complicated.

"I think I should share it." After thinking for a while, I decided to divide the points between my spells and the Status points.

First, one of my spells would come up, and of course, I chose the fire spell, since it is the spell with the most firepower available. So without thinking twice I clicked on the little arrow that was beside magic.

[3 points will be used, are you sure about that? Yes No ]

A small warning was given, giving me the option to accept or decline.

'Then that's it.' It wouldn't be as simple as I thought, to go up to level 6 I would need three points, I wonder how much I will need when I increase the level of these spells even more.

But even though it is a bit expensive in my opinion, I did select it, and then another warning was given.

[You used 3 skill points to raise your spell to level 6]

After starting to understand how it would work, I decided to raise my other three spells, putting them all at level 6, 12 points were spent for that. So I still had 18 points left.

'I think the spells are good enough, if I level them up so much, I think things will get a little out of control.' I was afraid that I would end up going overboard, even though I didn't think it would happen.

Now that I had finished raising the level of my spells, my eyes focused on that small table that showed my Status points, I wonder how much strength I can get with just those 18 points.

Without thinking twice, I selected the arrow that was next to the strong points.

[You will use 1 point to obtain 10 strength points, are you sure about that? Yes No ]

Again another warning message was given, but this time it was a message that got me excited, seeing that spending just one point would make me get 10 strength points, if I put the 18 points here, I would get 180 strength points.

"That is quite a thing." A smile appeared on my face, but even though I could get 180 strength points, I decided to split between agility so I wouldn't be so unbalanced. I would not focus on my magic now since the value is good, I will leave that for later.

My current Status left me very satisfied.

It had been a few hours since it all happened, it was already night and my father had come home. When he arrived, he brought a doctor along with him who helped to treat everyone.

After hearing what had happened, the doctor offered to help and said he would not charge anything, of course, my father would not deny his help, and when he came to the village.

It was a great help since some injured people needed treatment, but no serious injuries, so he managed to treat them all quickly, leaving my mother very relieved.

Another important thing was that all the bodies had already been collected and were protected with sheets, and the preparation of the bodies for burial would begin, but that would only happen tomorrow morning.

During all that happened, I stayed inside the house with Lari and Lisandra, but my mother told everything that happened as soon as she entered. Lisandra had no idea of ​​the gravity of the situation, so she went pale when she heard the number of people who were dead.

Lari also looked surprised, but she didn't look bothered either. In fact, she seemed even relieved, apparently, her parents would come to the village to be by her side, if they were here at the time of the attack they might be dead.

"Where's father now?" I asked my mother who was inside her room, she was packing some things that had been dropped on the floor during the night, apparently, she got up so desperate that she ended up dropping everything.

"He's taking care of some things around the village, and also taking care of the bodies."

Break ~~

When she remembered everything she had seen, she held the portrait so tightly that she was holding it that the glass broke.

"Your hand is bleeding, wait a second." I went to the kitchen where Lari was preparing dinner and asked her to get me some bandages to help my mother.

She was worried, but I said it was nothing serious. I grabbed the bandages and ran to the room again.

"Mother."

"...Fuck ... Hic .."

"Listen, it's over, all right." I went to the bedroom and hugged her while holding her bleeding hand.

I continued to hug her for a while, and after parting with her, I started taking care of her hand, cleaned the cut, and then put the bandages on, and all this while continuing to watch her crying in front of me.
