Ignoring Fyr, Ben left the medical tent with a weary face, leaving Lilith staring at Shenelle in shock."How the h.e.l.l did he do that!?" Lilith asked, stunned. She felt no holy energy or healing element from him but he healed Shenelle"s injury so effortlessly.
"Hmph! What a meany!" Fyr pouted, watching Ben walking away.
Ben left Ava, Takon and Duke to watch the enemy while he went to rest. He had been up for almost two days straight and although Nature Energy restored his body, his mind was exhausted.
Ben found a place to sleep near the wall in case of an emergency, and collapsed into the bed with sounds of thunder rumbling in the sky.
…
Shenelle was changing clothes and looked at her naked body in the mirror, gently touching the place where her wound was. A light blush creeped over her face as she quickly got dressed. Fyr was sleeping in her soul, undergoing changes from the energy that Ben had placed in her body.
Coming out wearing a tight green robe that gave a light glow, showing off her devilish body.
Lilith looked at Shenelle with strange eyes. "You know we are in the middle of a war, not a dinner party." she said, slight mocking in her voice.
"This robe enhances my nature magic." Shenelle shot back with a glare.
"I know but I know you are able to adjust the size of the robe. So i"m curious on why yours is so tight." Lilith asked with a sly smile.
"Because I want it to be." Shenelle said icily before taking a seat. A plate a food was soon brought out to her and she started eating.
Lilith joined her, taking a seat across from her and asking for a plate of food.
Wiping her mouth, Shenelle asked, "How is the situation on the battlefield?"
"Good. Thanks to Ben"s soul beasts the casualties are lower than they should be. The zombies have continued attacking throughout the night though and but the mages and rangers have been able to handle them so far." Lilith said slowly, taking a sip of tea.
"Those beasts are powerful…" Shenelle nodded her head, remembering Takon and Ava.
"Ben"s strength though… as soon as I think I understand him he surprises me." Lilith said, remembering him healing Shenelle.
Shenelle nodded but didn"t answer. She slowly sipped her tea and pursed her lips.
Lilith gave a knowing smirk before getting up. "I"m going to heal some soldiers."
…
Morning came but the sun was hidden behind dark clouds that continued to rumble with thunder.
A light drizzle started to fall from the sky, causing the soldiers mood to sour. The few water mages were able to use the rain to strengthen their attacks but the fire mages power was weakened.
The zombies continued to send low level zombies at the wall, trying to wear out the city"s forces. Ava and Takon repelled majority of the zombies with their flames.
Ben woke up after a fews hours of rest, feeling rested and refueled. What surprised him was that Cloey was curled up in his chest. A gentle smile appeared on his face as he pulled her deeper into his chest, giving her a kiss on her forehead.
Her eyes fluttered open, blushing slightly after realizing where she was. Trying to wiggle out of Ben"s arm, he pulled her closely, not allowing her to escape. Seeing her actions were futile, she gave up and leaned into him, closing her eyes with a light smile on her face.
After a few minutes of peace, a frown appeared on Cloey"s face. She felt something pressing against her thigh that was burning hot.
It took a moment before she figured it out but when she did, "You pervert! s.e.xfiend!" she screamed, punching his chest.
"You crawled into bed with me! That is hardly fair!" Ben protested as the girl squirmed in his arms, trying to escape again.
"Such a pervert! h.o.r.n.y b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" she continued to curse him and call him names.
Sighing in defeat Ben released her from his arms.
Scrambling out of bed, Cloey glared at him with her hair and clothes messed up. Ben"s eyes were focused on her chest, which were partially shown because of her messy clothes.
Shooting him a deathly glare, Cloey straightened up her clothes and fixed her hair before telling him to get up.
Grumbling, Ben swung his legs over the edge of the bed and got dressed, donning his armour and equipping his swords. He stepped out of the room and saw that every man and women seemed to be busy doing different tasks.
Heading towards the top of the wall, Ben saw Ava perched on the edge looking down at Takon fighting with mutant zombies.
"They started sending out mutants a little under an hour ago. Takon has been fighting them giving your army time to prepare themselves." Ava said quietly.
Ben nodded his head before opening his stats.

He added 100 points into his VIT to be able to fight longer in this war. The familiar heat flowed across his body as he clenched his fist, feeling the new strength he gained.
Ava looked at her master, feeling waves of strength from him.
"I"ll go help Takon out." Ben said with a wide grin, beautiful black wings sprouted out of his back and he jumped off the wall.
Ben dived at the zombies with his swords out, slashing zombies down as he flew by. Takon saw him and let out a loud roar, and attacked with a new gusto of energy.
Hearing the loud roar, the soldiers ran to the wall to see what had happened. Seeing Ben slaughtering his way through the zombies, the soldiers were filled with energy and loud out yells of support.
Pushing the zombies back, Ben and Takon retreated back to the wall. Ben was smiling, his breathing was even thanks to his new high VIT stat.
Feeling high from the battle, Ben went to look for his generals but a message flashed across his eyes, dowsing him in cold water.
