Chapter 505 Battle Conclusion
Despite being attacked to the point of having a hard time moving, the bunny girl persevered. She abused the innate trait that would allow her to immediately heal her wounds in a few minutes after obtaining them but it wasn\'t fast enough to heal all her wounds since, by the time the old wounds will be healed, new ones appear.
Lina sighed as she looked at the bunny girl with her semi-torn outfit and bloody mess body.
"Isn\'t this enough? It is clear you won\'t be able to fight anymore. Why are you pushing yourself?" Lina stood in front of the bunny girl who is still trying to get up after being beaten by her. Every trick that the bunny girl tried is either not effective or perhaps used against her instead of damaging the enemy she was facing.
"Not...yet... I still haven\'t lost yet!"
She pulled out her dagger for one last attempt but Lina easily flick it off that it flew into a tree and stuck into the trunk. Immediately after Lina did that, she quickly punches the abdomen of the Bunny girl, and she pukes out more blood before she loses consciousness.
Lina immediately catches the bunny girl in her arms before she falls to the ground.
"Master, I know you have a bet with her to leave her there if she was defeated by me but I can see the potential in her. She just didn\'t have the best training but the spark is there. I think I want to make her my apprentice."
I was surprised when Lina proposed that to me. I was indeed planning to leave her behind since having someone who wants to kill you around is just similar to having a timed bomb close to your body. I didn\'t expect to have Lina take an interest in her, especially since even in the past, she didn\'t show any kind of interest in other people. This is the first time I have seen her do this and plead for me to bring her along for her to become her own disciple.
"Are you sure about that? Having like her would be difficult and she might cause us trouble in the future if she wasn\'t properly trained."
"Don\'t worry about it, Master. I am confident about it that she will be a fine follower. She will not be a nuisance, I promise."
Since Lina pleaded to me for her to accept the bunny girl, I have to at least fulfill the duty of a master. And since Lina has seen potential in her, then why not? If she is indeed someone who can be good and we can assign tasks for her, then it wouldn\'t be bad to get another follower.
I pulled out a bottle of splash potion and emptied the whole bottle on the bunny girl, healing all the remaining wounds she have in her body. I know that she has fast regeneration in her body but I decided to just use a potion to finish the job. That way, she will wake up much sooner.
"Bring her in. We will form a contract once she wakes up."
Lina nodded and brought the bunny girl into the Summon\'s Area. Since I agreed for her to stay in just like the angry boy before, she can remain there without getting a contract from me just yet.
Now that my job is done and every single loose thread is now loose, it\'s time to head back to my initial job.

When I returned to the site where the soldiers are dismantling the Mist Turtle of the Damned, I was shocked to see that the turtle\'s carcass is nowhere to be seen now. The only things that prove that the carcass of the turtle was present there before are the amount of blood and some residual flesh that was left behind due to the dismantling process.
Also, Almira and the others are discussing things outside already which means Almira is done with the weapon that she was trying to make from the materials that were salvaged from the Mist turtle of the damned.
"Ey, Bladeheart? Where have you been? One day passed by and you did not even log out. What did you do for you to stay behind?" Hagane asked as he noticed me approaching them.
"I got a quest to reforge the first relic that I retrieved underground. I mean, it is necessary for me to reforge it in case we will need it in the future."
"Looks like the queens drove you into an errand huh? So does the Carnwennan back to its former form?" Almira asked.
"Not just back from its former form, it is even improved," I pulled out the Carnwennan and throw it to Almira who immediately caught the blade and examined the weapon. When she read the description and stats, I can see in her eyes the surprise that she felt after seeing the new weapon\'s form.
"Are you sure that you reforged this on your own? I don\'t remember you having weapons with this much quality in them, it seems like the work of an artisan! I don\'t think your work results in forging can net you to have that made by your own hands and I don\'t believe you are capable of that stunt. Not only that, you are dealing with the Carnwennan and not just another weapon you can throw away and leave it at that!"
I laughed at Almira\'s reaction as she thought that my skills have grown so much that I was already capable of doing stuff like that."
"Ha, if only that would be possible, I won\'t be making crappy armors and weapons until now. I would be making legendary tier weapons already. So no. I am not the one who returned that to its former features but for someone else. Also, they said that they wanted to send regards to you since you have not visited there for so long."
Almira is sharp enough to understand who I was talking about or that she really didn\'t have anyone else that can be considered her close acquaintances. She continues to hold the Carnwennan in her hands, still lost in thought.
I then turned to everyone.
"What happened when I was gone in one day? I am quite sure that the carcass of the turtle was still too big for us to finish?"
"Ah... that... Something happened when you were gone. A beam of some sort broke out on the ground and the carcass along with some unfortunate NPC soldiers were reduced to nothingness after."
