When Alros woke up, it is to the sight of his two lovers hugging one another. They are seated on a couch, likely waiting for him to wake up. He wonder whether he should wake them up when his body does it for him.
"Rggghh," a light grunt escaped his lips as the pain and soreness remained. It was enough to wake the two women, whose eyes lighten up at the sight of him being awake.
"Master!" "Ryker!" They ran towards him but refrained from touching him, likely worrying they might made thing worst if his injury is not fully healed.
"H-how bad is it?" Alros asked, his voice hoarse. Mina quickly took a waterskin and gave it to him. The demon drink the liquid greedily, feeling his throat getting better already.
He then looked at Laili, his previous question remembered by the two women,
"Well, your injuries are bad, very bad," understatement of the century, "In fact, if not for the Healing Magic Circle, you could, well, you probably don't die because you are a demon but your comatose state would have been way longer. In fact, you fainted for an entire week,"
Alros' eyes widen after hearing that. He had expected to be in a light coma, but to be out for a week, despite being an Archdemon, the injuries are more severe than he thought.
"Well, I'm still not fully healed," his legs are torn to shred from the Treewraith, or was it the archer, he could barely remember as his head was filled with adrenaline, trying to survive the onslaught of five monsters.
It is a good thing they are not used to working together or he would have died. He then turned towards his legs. Considering how they are small chunks of meat still not there, it must meant the injuries a lot worse. Likely, his legs, at least the back of his thigh, have a chunk of it taken out.
"Are there any Mana Potions and Healing Potions?" he asked. He will not leave the Healing Magic Circle before he is fully healed. While he is a geneticist, he did took an internship in a hospital, and knew the importance of a full recovery.
However, that does not mean he will not do anything to speed up his recovery. And he wanted to replenish the Mana he used. While his Mana reserves slowly being filled, having it full likely help his recovery, or so he hope.

< Archdemon Tail II - A stronger tail than that of a regular Archdemon. The tail of a demon has many use, from hanging upside down to a third hand, able to grab weapon with it and can be used as one with sufficient training. The tip of the tail can also be turned into weapon, able to pierce through armor with some magic on it.

Thankfully, his earlier investment in the form of buying all the upgrade of Greater Demon paid off. At least he get to skip a level, going to straight to level 2 for all the body parts that can be upgraded. That move had saved him about more than 300 000 SP.
"Hhmm, if I want to kill them, or at least subdue them I need to be way stronger. But I cannot come outside or they might have find me. It's a good thing that don't know the ability of the crystal or the system space, or they might have found him already.
"In that case, the only way I can roam inside the Lunos Forest would be," an idea soon came to mind. Since he could not roam the Lunos Forest, then sending his monsters to do his bidding would be the next best thing.
In fact, he had done so beforehand. However, due to him being faster and more efficient in hunting down the monster's tribes, he did most of the hardwork, though his team was no slouch either.
"Grimoire of Darkness would also be ideal," he muttered. Using it would allow him to used the shadow of the forest to hide. With it, he can easily escape the monsters when needed.
"So, I will need around 1 300 000 SP," thinking of that number is bad enough, but saying it out loud, Alros shivered as he knew he will need to kill a lot of monsters. Thankfully, there are multiple strong monsters in his arsenal, from Demon Goblin to Demon Orc Warchief.
Speaking of it, a sudden thought made it into his head.
"Maybe, it's time to give Gobruk an overdue evolution," in his hand, an Evolution Jewel.
