Chapter 42 Natalie's Mistake

"That's the spirit!" cheered Nathan,

He gave her the awakener and said, "Here's the awakener. To use it, all you have to do is inject it on any part of your body. After that, you just have to wait and the awakening process will begin."

Nathan paused for a second, then continued, "I have to warn you though, the awaken-"

As he was talking, he was suddenly interrupted by Natalie's loud scream that made even Nathan flinch a little.

"AHHHHH!!"

Natalie's scream sounds so tragic, that you can even feel the pain she's feeling through her voice.

"Why did you use it already!?"

When Nathan took a look as to why she suddenly let out a scream like that, he realized that Natalie already injected the awakener in her arm!

"AHHHHHH!"

Natalie's cries echoes inside the house, showing just how much pain she is feeling.

Knowing that there's nothing he can do, Nathan just sits there, looking at Natalie worriedly as he prays that the awakening ends soon.

Soon, 10 minutes passed by.

The pain covering Natalie disappeared and she passed out.

"Sigh… it's finally done."

Nathan wiped his sweat as he heaved a big sigh of relief.

Just watching Natalie go through that painful experience made Nathan nervous for her well-being.

Now, looking at his sister sleeping peacefully, Nathan was finally able to relax his tense muscles.

He let Natalie lay down on the sofa and went to the kitchen to drink water.

After coming back to the living room, Nathan saw the sky outside, it's almost dark now.

"Hais… how am I supposed to go shopping for hiking equipment now?" Turning his eyes to the sleeping Natalie on the sofa, he added, "It's not like I can leave her alone here."

He stood there in silence as he regretted not being able to go out.

But then, he thought of a plan!

"Wait, I know. How about letting her inside the independent space? With that, I will be able to rest while I can still supervise her."

As he thought of that, Nathan's eyes lit up!

"Yes, that will work. Then she can sleep in the thatch house!"

Inside the thatch house, there's basic living necessities like a bed, a small kitchen, as well as a shabby bathroom.

It might not be much, but it's still livable. That will be enough, it won't take that long for him to shop anyway.

From Nathan's experience, Natalie will probably wake up by next day.

That's why, putting her inside the independent space to rest won't be any problem!

But Nathan suddenly frowned, "But I'm not sure if it's possible to bring another person into my space…"

He shrugged, "Well, there's nothing to lose in trying it out."

Then, without delay, Nathan immediately proceeds to do what he planned.

Touching Natalie's hand, he closed his eyes and entered the space.

When he opened it again a second later, he immediately took a look at Natalie.

"Yes! It's possible!"

Confirming that he was able to bring Natalie inside his space, Nathan smiled.

With that, he was able to learn something new about the space.

Taking note of that information, Nathan then proceeds to carry Natalie towards the thatch house.

Inside the thatch house, Nathan carefully lay Natalie's body down, scared of hurting her.

"Slowly~ and… done. Phew~"

He looked at his sleeping sister and muttered, "You just rest here, Tal. I will be going to the mall for now."

After taking one last look at Natalie, making sure that her sleeping posture won't hurt her, Nathan left the space.

Back to the house, Nathan said, "And, with that done, it's time for me to go!"

He did not dally any longer. Leaving the house, he did not forget to lock it and rode on a public transportation vehicle.

Several minutes later, Nathan arrived at the mall with light feet.

"Hmm, what do I have to buy again?"

Nathan took out a piece of paper from his pants pocket and read the list that he wrote.

Earlier, when he was talking with the hiker's club, one of the things that he asked was about the necessary things he needed to have as a beginner hiker.

There's actually not that much on the list, like hiking backpack, hiker's boots, first aid kit, knife or a multi tool, etc.

They also warned him to wear appropriate clothing that he's comfortable with.

Taking note of those things, Nathan made a list of things that he needed to buy.

"Well, first on the list is a hiking backpack so I'll go and buy that first."

Since he did not know where he could buy a hiking backpack, Nathan used the map on the mall to locate it.

After replaceing it, walks in that direction casually while taking a look at the shops that he passes by.

But just as he was walking, he suddenly heard a ring inside his head which caused him to pause.

Taking a look, he saw that the system actually gave a mission after a long time!

"Ooh, finally, a new mission. Let me take a look at it."

[Ding!]

[New Mission: Buy a car worth more than 2 million pesos.

Reward: 5 Gold Points, Skill Upgrade Card]

…

After seeing the mission, Nathan calmly nodded his head, saying, "Since buying a car was also on my plan, this mission can already be considered done."

Closing the system, Nathan did not delay his shopping anymore.

"I'll go buy all the things on the list in no time and go to a car dealer."

Nathan felt quite motivated since he's been wanting to buy a car for a while now but just doesn't have the time.

Now that he's here, he can finally get it done once and for all.

So he stopped loitering and headed to the outdoor equipment store quickly.

After buying what he needed from there, without delay he went to the next shop to buy first aid.

And just like that, Nathan went from store to store and finally got everything on his list within an hour.

Since he did not take any rest after going to one store after another, Nathan right now is a little sweaty.

Finding a bench, he sat down and took a rest.

He sighed while wiping his sweat, "Sigh… shopping really is very tiring, hais…"
