Rose felt some of her ribs break as she hit the ground. Although the snow cushioned most of the blow, the wyvern's brute strength had dealt a devastating blow.

"Cryo... Cough-Cough... kinesis: Ice Wall!"

Coughing blood, she created an ice wall and quickly took a Mana potion, intending to drink it before the wyvern got to her.

Despite the searing pain in her side, Rose had no regrets about her decision to take on the monster. When she had first encountered the wyvern, her initial instinct had been to flee the dungeon. But when she had seen the creature attacking a lone person, she had acted quickly, hurling a spear at its side and engaging it in a fierce battle.

She recalled that just as she had thought she had the upper hand, a deafening screech reverberated through the mountain range, causing Rose's eyes to tremble with fear.

'Where did the other one come from?'

It was clear from the sound of the screech that the new creature was much larger and more formidable than the one she had been battling. Even her opponent seemed to forget about her completely and hastily abandoned their fight, taking off in search of its kin.

Rose's first instinct was to bolt straight for the exit portal, but she hesitated when she heard no sound coming from the direction of the wyverns. After a few moments of deliberation, she decided to suppress her mana flow and follow the general direction in which the monster had flown.

As she drew closer, she caught sight of the same wyvern she had fought earlier, now feeding on a Yeti. The creature was scanning its surroundings, clearly on the lookout for any signs of its larger kin.

Taking advantage of the moment, Rose summoned another spear and launched it at the wyvern's wing, impaling it and rendering the creature unable to fly.

'Maybe I can kill it before its kin comes...'

But as she engaged the monster in battle once again, she found herself hurtling through the air like a broken kite, struggling to regain her balance.

This all led up to her broken ribs and the Wyvern clawing her Ice wall.

Screech...

The creature screeched in frustration as it tried to destroy the wall and reach Rose, who was slowly healing her injuries.

"Cryokinesis: Icy Blade!"

Summoning her cryokinetic powers, Rose created an ice blade and dashed towards the wall that was about to give out.

Just as the wall crashed down, Rose drove her blade deep into the wyvern's eye, causing it to thrash around wildly.

SCREEEEECHHHH!!!

Despite the deafening screeches that rang in her ears, Rose held firm, driving the blade deeper into the reptile's head as it tried to shake her off.

With a final, desperate push, Rose managed to drive the blade all the way into the wyvern's brain, causing it to freeze and fall lifeless to the ground.

As the adrenaline slowly drained from her body, Rose collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

"I've done it..."

She murmured before collapsing on the ground, depleted of her Mana.

***

"..."

As Rose started to lose consciousness, I rushed to her side and checked her pulse to make sure she was still alive. Once I confirmed that she was stable, I propped her up against a nearby tree.

Turning my attention to the massive wyvern carcass nearby, I muttered under my breath.

"Shitty lizard..."

Kicking its scaly leg I felt pain, but ignored it completely.

As I gazed upon its muscular build and half-red scales, an idea suddenly struck me. I hesitated for a moment, glancing over at Rose.

"She wouldn't mind, would she..."

Taking a deep breath, I drew my Katana and began tearing apart the scales covering the wyvern's chest.

Blood coated my hands as I worked, but I pressed on until an azure sphere caught my eye.

"..."

I grabbed the azure sphere and stashed it in my inventory, feeling pleased with my find. Of course, Rose would be angry if she discovered that someone had stolen the core of the creature she had just killed...

However, how would she ever know it was me?

I grinned to myself as I wiped the blood from my hands and blade with snow. Despite my theft, I had no intention of leaving Rose unconscious in the middle of the dungeon.

I activated my Mana and approached her, taking her soft hand in mine. I sent a pulse of Mana towards her, but at first, none of it seemed to be absorbed. Slowly, however, she began to greedily take it in.

Click...

Normally, giving someone else your Mana was incredibly dangerous.

Why?

Well... If the Mana of two individuals didn't match, the recipient could even explode.

Fortunately, I knew how to reverse this effect!

As long as I supplied the same amount of Mana at the same intervals, Rose would be able to safely absorb it without any risk of harm.

Feeling that she was slowly regaining her senses I quickly stood up and walked away, suppressing my Mana and hiding the traces of me ever being here.

It was my first time being a shadow to one of the protagonists and I have to stay... It is quite rewarding!

Giggling under my breath, I ran away, feeling that my purse has gotten way heavier than I expected.
