It was kinda strange to start my day in the old-new house. I took a shower, grabbed Tam, and shadow walked with him to have breakfast in the cafeteria. To my surprise, I found both Tihana and Ki'rai there.

They were eating the stew with bread. Well... Ki'rai was just picking out meat. I sat in front of them and put Tam on the bench next to me.

- Good morning. How was yesterday?

- Good - said Ki'rai.

- Terrible - said Tihana at the same time.

Then they looked at each other. Ki'rai eyes got narrow, which clearly scared the human, as she quickly turned towards me.

- My whole body is sore! I can't even walk! - she quickly explained, then looked at the Xuzard again.

- You are weak. You are prey, not a hunter - said my little lizard.

- I'm a girl, not some super alien lizard with strange powers. I can't teleport like you two!

- Just like I said, weak - said KI'rai.

I couldn't help but smile.

- It's not funny - said Tihana.

- It is, but let's put that aside. I'll help you with your sore muscles after I'm done eating, and then I'm gonna give you something.

The perspective of gift brought a smile to her face, but she did rather well and quickly fought it off, but I could see how excited she got as she peeked over her bowl at me a lot, during the rest of the breakfast.

After finishing the food I used 'Cleansing' on her, which got rid of the pain.

- Wow... - she said, then laughed. - Wow. You can do stuff like that too?

- Yep - I said, as we were leaving the cafeteria.

I had Tam under one of my arms. Ki'rai followed in silence.

- So, what's the gift you were talking about before?

- Here - I gave her the chicken. - His name is Tam. Use him wisely.

She looked at the animal, then at me, then at the animal again, and finished on me.

- Are you serious? Your gift is a freaking chicken?

- Technically he is a rooster.

- Wow. That changes everything - she said ironically.

I put my hand on her shoulder and looked her deep in the eyes.

- You are too young to understand the true power of this chicken - I said with a completely serious face.

She, on the other hand, snorted, almost spitting on my face.

- I thought you are crazy before, but this now, this confirms it. You are bonkers. Loco. Crazy. Nutjob.

I straightened up, then looked at Ki'rai.

- Do me a favor, and kick her as today - I said to her, and then shadow walked to the giants' territory.

I had to take care of my debts. I ower ten million points to American soldiers, and also wanted to sell some crystals. Maybe I didn't need the money, but my mom definitely could use some. With three dollars a point, I could really make her rich.

This led me to unleash my powers and storm through the whole place in an hour. I just massacred everything on my way, using both magic and my incredible physical power. Quick counting assured me that I earned 20 980 000 which was enough to pay my debt and make me a millionaire.

I brought it all to Hatta, which led to us both going to the gate hall and opening me a bank account there. The whole thing needed a day to be finalized since the paperwork had to be brought to the city, but I officially got one, and my crystals went on the market, which was done in the office next door.

They took 1089 of my crystals, while the rest I delivered myself to the drops, meeting colonel Adam Harris. A forty-something, buff guy, who used to be a member of special forces.

He had short dark hair, with a lot of grey ones. Big, a bit wrinkly face, and a very serious expression. He was very polite, and clearly wanted to talk with me more, but I lied that I'm busy, and left as soon as possible.

With that out of the way, I just needed the weapons delivered, and the voting, but that had to wait for Will's comeback. I hoped that then I'll be able to return to hunting.

Since I had the rest of the day free, I went to check on Tihana and KI'rai. I found them in the pit sparring. Well, it was mostly my little lizard kicking the girl's ass. To my surprise among the few who were watching them was Rishi. He was sitting on the stone bleachers, watching them and petting Tam.

This was such an unusual thing, that I ignored the fighting chicks, and went straight to him.

- Hi Rishi - I said, scaring him a little since he was so engaged in the battle.

- Hi - he replied, smiling. - I've been looking for you, but I couldn't find you, so I decided to stay here, and wait, hoping you will show up. And you did.

- Yep, I did. What do you want?

- I made something for you, just like you wanted me to. The new weapon - he said, and picked up from the ground something long, wrapped in gray cloth.

I didn't notice it beforehand, because the color was so similar to the stone. What I unwrapped was an exact replica of the one he gave me previously, but the very moment I moved my hand, to grab the handle, and my fingers got closer to the weapon itself, I could feel the difference.

I was zapped by an electric current that jumped from the pudao to my hand. It wasn't painful, to tell the truth, I didn't even feel it, but the sheer surprise forced my hand back. It was just a reflex reaction.

The second try allowed me to see the electricity jumping from the handle to y hand. It was crazy. I could feel the magic trapped inside the enchantment.

The little show grabbed the attention of bystanders. Even KI'rai and Tihana stopped to watch.

- You want to try it? - he asked.

- Of course, I want to - I said grabbing it fully, and examining it in my hand. - But this will have to wait until tomorrow. I can try it here.

I looked around and there were too many people. If I went full force here, even without 'Shadow fusion' there was a high chance somebody could even die.

- Thank you, Rishi.

- My pleasure - he replied with a big smile. - I hope we can strike similar deals in the future.

- I'll think about it.

We shook hands, and he went back to the workshop. I was tempted to just shadow walk to Loistavadvaar and go wild there, but I couldn't. I needed to stay and keep an eye on things until everything was resolved.

A bit later the girl's training session came to an end, and they went to get some rest. Tihana tried to get me to let her use my new pudao, but I refused.

Shortly after I returned to my home to just relax. Lay on my bed, and listen to music from the good old disc player.

The day came to an end with 3 541 029 points remaining on my account, and 20 class points.
