*Null was sitting by a campfire checking his level and stats in the system window.*
Null: (scratching his head) When I defeated that spirit, I went up to level 1, so before that I was level 0! —he sighs as he leans back against the tree trunk—
*The system window disappears and Null looks at the person next to him.*
Null: I guess it's because of the lack of vitality that I can't tell if it's a man or a woman, he said thoughtfully. I'm going to try to transmit my energy to see if it works.
*Null approaches the person and puts his hand on their forehead, and Null's body begins to glow with a white light, and that energy goes to the person*
Null: Thank goodness it worked. It's the first time I've used it on a real person, he said with relief.
*Thanks to Null's energy, the person begins to regain their color and vitality, hair begins to grow on their bald head, and their face begins to take shape.*
Null: It's a woman, I see, he said as he looked at her long hair and face. Yes, it's definitely a woman.
*The woman, now completely revitalized, begins to wake up.*
Null: Are you okay?
*The woman manages to open her eyes and blinks to dispel the remnants of sleep. When she sees Null, she gets scared and throws a rock at him.*
Woman: Get away from me, spirit!
Null: (Catching the stone) Hey, hey, calm down, calm down. I'm not that spirit that caught you.
*The woman still cautiously stares at Null, then after a moment lowers her guard a little.*
Woman: (Sighing) All right, I'll believe you, but where is that spirit?
Null: I executed it, don't worry. (he says calmly)
Woman: Oh, I see. Good. —She grabs Null's shirt and shakes him— HOW DID YOU KILL THAT THING!? THAT THING WAS HUGE! HOW COULD YOU!?
Null: Okay, okay, I'll tell you! (He said, trying to get up.)
*Null tells her about the battle with the spirit and how he killed it.*
Woman: (surprised, her eyes shining) Incredible, you are very powerful.
Null: Okay, he said, somewhat nervous, as he is not used to compliments. Anyway, my name is Null. What's your name?
Lucia: My name is Lucia. It's a pleasure to meet you, Null.
*They shake hands.*
Null: Where is your home? I think you should go back, right?
Lucia: That's right, I forgot! My father must be worried. She looks at Null and begs him, Could you please come with me? I don't want another spirit or something to trap me again!
Null: (sighing) Okay, I'll go with you.
*Null gets up from the tree trunk and follows Lucia, alert to any threats.*
*They talk and tell stories the whole way. Thirty minutes later, they arrive at a village.*
Lucia: (Excited) We're here!
Null: I see, so this is where you live, he says as he continues walking, looking around.
*They continue walking, Lucia showing Null all the places.
Lucia: This is the blacksmith's shop. Here they make weapons and also repair them and things like that. She pulls Null to the side. And this is the food store. Well, as the name says, it's for buying food!
*After walking for a few minutes, Lucia comes across a 74-year-old man with wrinkles on his face but a strong body, as if he hasn't let old age get the better of him.*
Lucia: DAD!
Null: That's your dad? (Sighs) Well, at least I reunited you with him.
*Suddenly, several spears surround Null as if he were a threat.*
Null: (Serious) What does this mean?
Lucia: What are you doing, Dad! He's not bad, he saved me!
Old man: What do you mean he's not bad? Didn't you see what he looks like? He looks like a spirit, no human looks like that, and besides, with that aura...
Null: Huh? Did I hear that you attacked me just because I look like a spirit? —I shake my head— And I thought you would use your heads.
Old man: What did you say? —He raises his hand— Attack!
Lucia: NO!
*All the spears pierce Null's body*.
