73 Small talk with Jasvinder (1/2)

After that, I went to a secluded place and wore the Defensive Suit.

'Ahh! That does the job. Soo… comfortable.' I thought as I enjoyed the warm and comfortable feeling of wearing a defensive suit.

It really goes to show how advanced the people who created these defensive suit were, since a suit made for fighting was much more comfortable than the clothes I used to wear on a daily basis.

I packed the clothes and kept them inside the spatial ring.

I took out my sword and realized that it had already been repaired.

'Well. It seems like I can start immediately.' I thought and started to move toward the forest when I heard the sound of someone crying.

Curious, I went to the source and found… Sera crying over what looked like a hastily made cross.

'She's crying over her boyfriend isn't she?'

'She is.' Lily said and I had to stop myself from laughing.

'3 people. 3 people out of 150 died. That 1 in 50 people. And one of them had to be her boyfriend. She's really unlucky. Isn't she.'

'You should not laugh over other's plight Ashok.' Lily reprimanded to which I only chuckled.

'What can I say. I'm a petty person. A really petty person.' I smiled and left.

I had no desire to get involved with any girl for the moment. Specially not someone weak who cannot support herself.

If I ever get into a relationship then it would be with someone who should be at least as strong as me.

'Now then, I could go in the forest and hunt blindly like I did last time. Or I could talk to Jasvinder, and ask him to teach me the basics hunting.'

Learning from him will be a smarter choice in the long term.

He had far more experience in hunting in the wild than any other person I've ever seen.

'If I could learn even a little bit of his skills then it will be far more beneficial for me in the future.'

With that in mind, I changed my direction and went in the direction of the building I had come from instead.

When I came back, he was still sleeping in the same position in which I had last seen him.

I was about to knock on the door when he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at me.

'He had better instincts than anyone I've ever seen. Even Big bro.' I thought and refrained from knocking.

I kept staring at him for few moments and he got the message.

He slowly pried off his hands from his girlfriend's grasp and came out of the door and closed it off slowly in fear of waking her up.

”What is it you want Ashok?” he asked in his cold voice and I could see that his eyes were a bit red. From anger or from sadness, I had no idea.

”How is she?” I asked in as gentle a voice as I could muster.
