"Jin, are you okay?" Milk and the rest finally caught up with Jin who was sitting at a bench being attended by the Zoo's Medic. "His arm has been rendered useless by the previous fight, he needs attention at the hospital. He was initially low on chi but for some reason, his chi production is higher than the usual standards. Though it is not that surprising given since being a Grade 4 cultivator despite still being this young is an achievement. Other than that, I have treated most of his wounds." The female field medic gave her assessment to Jin's friends.
"Its okay, I can fix that arm for him. He does not need to go to the hospital." Milk took the female medic's place and assessed Jin's arm all by herself. "Slight nerve necrosis due to a lack of chi and blood, some of the bones are impacted but they are not much of an issue, I can fix that." Milk gently touch Jin and managed to figure out his problems. "Oh, some internal bleeding due to the tearing of the muscles."
"If that's the case, should we not rush him to the hospital?" The field medic did not know that the injuries problem were this bad. "Relax." The entire group said in unison, which scared the field medic for a moment. Within the next minute, the field medic then realised that she had really worried for nothing when Milk once again wrote some magical symbols in the air as a healing spell materialised to help heal Jin.
"You are a western magic arts practitioner?" It was not rare to see western magic in this modern world but western healing magic was one of the hardest styles magic to master in the world. Some said that the western healing magic was harder because they copy…erm… incorporated Eastern Healing techniques into the magic to make it have more of an effect and work more efficiently.
Hence, Western Healing Magic was considered as the highest standard of healing magic even though the eastern counterparts did not wish to admit it. Milk nodded her head but the field medic who had seen a variety of western magic could not comprehend the magic she just saw.
"Ah, it's a variant healing magic, it's easier on her mana." Jin decided to help Milk answer when he somehow understood that some lying was necessary to keep Milk's existence consistent to this world's standard.
"I see, even so, this is literally a miracle. I would like to know more about this if possible." The field medic continued her small talk and eventually she realised that Jin was a Dungeon Supplier. "I will go and take a look if I ever have the time, till then take care of yourself, Mr Xie." The field medic took her leave and the entire group felt a sense of relief.
"Thanks for covering for me back there, Master." Milk pinched Jin's cheeks for fun.
"Ahhhhh, no. Thank You for your help back then as well as right now. I can't imagine what I would have done otherwise." Jin smiled back at Milk, which caused Milk to irresistibly hug him.
"You are so cute, Jin!" Jin was a little embarrassed as a few bystanders were around and saw Milk hugging Jin so openly in the public. He quickly pushed her away and asked her to calm down. It was then that Jin noticed that Peppers had been hiding behind Yun this whole time. "Come here, Peppers."
Peppers quietly came forward with her head down. "What exactly happened?" Jin asked and Peppers looked at Milk, who gave her the nod of approval to go ahead. "I was exiled from my country because of my terrifying magical powers. They were…too scared of me." Peppers gave him the short version but Jin believed that it took a massive amount courage to even say that much.
"Do not worry, I am not scared of you a single bit. Neither is Milk, Yun or Zeru. If anyone is afraid of you, come to us. We will protect you with all our might!" Jin looked Peppers in the eye and gave her his assurance.
"But…there are times that I can't control myself, and the magic in me feels like it's about to explode. I am afraid I might burn you…and you will be scared of m-" That was when Jin and the others laughed.
"What a joke! Have you forgotten the times you have already burnt me? Was I scared of you? Was I afraid? Did I really scold you?" Peppers shook her head in answer to every question that Jin had asked and Jin smiled at her too.
"Then? What are you afraid of? Be yourse-" Jin stopped when he realised he almost said the wrong thing to Peppers, which caused Peppers to laugh. "Hahaha, I will control myself, but master. Be there to stop me if I cannot." Peppers stepped backwards and graciously did a curtsy bow like a princess with her denim dress.
"Alright, let's go to the Panda Enclosure again and take the picture with the baby panda." Jin began to walk back to see the pandas once more when he noticed the field medics were pushing Ku Wai into the Zoo's ambulance. Jin unconsciously checked for the storage watch on his hand and Boo to make sure that they were with him before he walked away.
Jin figured Ku Wai would probably end up going to the field hospital first for some monitoring and care before heading to the main hospital. "Did he say…he was getting a panda picture for princess?" Jin thought to himself and walked back with the entire group.
"Ah! You managed to win the seal to take a picture with the Baby Panda?" The same annoying zoo attendant who was shouting to promote the fight arena spoke to Jin once again. "Here you go." Jin passed the seal to him and the attendant scanned it with his phone to make sure it was authentic.
"Sure scared me back there with that fire blast thing. Anyways, follow me. Are you taking the photo as a group or alone?" The zoo attendant asked as he gestured for them to follow him to the back of the Panda Enclosure.
"You are okay with such a big group?" Jin was pleasantly surprised.
"Yeah, sure. I believe you painstakingly earn it fighting the grandmaster. Besides, that was some fine ass kicking you performed back with those triad members. Been a long time since someone openly disobeyed them in this zoo. I will close one eye this time round just for you buddy. Heck, you can pass me one of your phones so that I can help you guys take the group photo." The annoying zoo attendant became so generous that Jin just had to forgive his annoyance..for now.
"Give me a moment! I will bring the baby panda into the office for the whole group shot, then we will do the official one in the panda enclosure." The zoo attendant took some time but he managed to bring the baby panda into the Panda Enclosure office.
"Alright, hold this Hero." The zoo attendant passed Jin the baby panda and the group quickly took a photo with the zoo attendant's help.
"Not a bad picture." Yun saw the picture and praised the zoo attendant.
"Hahaha, it's one of my hobbies and it was my idea to do this photo taking thing to make my zoo job a little more interesting." The Zoo attendant took the baby panda back from Jin and that was when he noticed that something was off.
The Baby Panda who was usually against visitors was actually very comfortable around Jin.
