Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 101: In-Formal Gathering?

Back in Miless room in Capital,

Coin hovered over Miles and checked the IV attached to Miless arm. It has been more than three days since Miles lost consciousness, and Coin didnt know what to do. He had already checked Miles's body several times, but there was nothing wrong with him. He was just sleeping.

Coin decided to call Evelyn if Miles wouldnt wake up another day. But to his surprise, Miles grunted and straightened up on the bed. My mouth feels like shit. How many days have I slept this time? Miles asked as he grimaced.

Three, Coin asked as he brought a cup of water and an empty bowl while floating. What the hell happened?

I dont know either. I was sleeping, then I found myself in this mysterious room with the girl we met in the Umbra Forest kneeling in front of me. But the body I was in wasnt mine, and I had no control over it. Miles started to recount what he had experienced. It is probably related to the blood orb. I used the Skill Orb to gain Monster Eyes, while the Leader of the Starve Cleric used the monster artifact. There must be some kind of connection between them that allowed me to see through those eyes.

Coins hologram body appeared in the air upside down, and he was holding his chin. It makes sense. After all, what you gained this time was the ability the vampire had. Since you inherited its ability, it is perfectly normal for you to also inherit the connection between the two of them.

Yeah, I thought so too. But there was something strange about the experience. Miles said then washed his mouth with the water Coin brought, it had some medicine in it, cleared Miles throat and nostrils.

What was it? Coin asked curiously.

I should only be able to see through the eyes, but when the Leader of the Starve Cleric used energy, I felt it too. In fact, I felt that he was using it all wrong. Miles said as he looked at the upside-down Coin.

I am useless when it comes to the Energy, but since you are connected to the body through the eyes, you should be able to feel things happening in it. Coin gave his opinion, As for how you felt it was wrong, I cannot comment on it. Maybe it is some sort of instinct, familiarity, or a similar concept you humans have.

Maybe. Miles shrugged it off. There were still many things he didnt know about the energy, and he couldnt guess or predict what that feeling was. Since he couldn't help it, he ignored it. He also gave up on trying to connect to the eyes once again. With such a side effect, it wouldn't be worth it.

I wonder if I can ease the pain if I take the Mind Serum? Miles thought out loud. He felt mind-splitting pain after he came out of the vision. It was probably his brain that couldn't take it anymore, if he were to strengthen his brain, it might help him to watch over the Leader of the Starve Cleric with more ease.

Mind Serum increases the processing power of the brain, makes you have better memory and in higher tiers, it can even allow you to gain some telepathic controls. All great scientists have used Mind Serums to high levels, but unlike Strengthening Serum, Mind Serum has higher requirements. Coin informed him at the side. Miles was eligible to use the serum, Coin was sure of it even before testing it. But even Coin wasnt sure how far Miles could go.

Hmm, I will try to go through the test as soon as possible, but I have to use my real identity for the Mind Serum. Mother gifted me the first one for free anyways. Also, they will do a lot of tests, and those tests can blow my cover. I dont want to risk it. It means I will have to meet people in that building, most of whom I know. Then Mother will also be notified. Miles planned what he should do.

He then shrugged it off. There wasnt much he could do at this junction, and he had to face them. He already used two Strengthening Serums, and in the family meeting, he already told them the truth.

He was famished but he still sat down to see if there were any articles about the phenomenon he experienced.

A day after, Miles still found nothing. He sighed and left the house to have breakfast. He was unconscious for three days and too occupied with the research later. He was famished. He felt lazy to prepare something. He left the building and walked in the street looking for a place to dine.

He crossed the streets looking left and right but there were mostly coffee places. Miles wanted to eat lots of breakfast, not a small piece of croissant. As he was walking he heard someone calling his name. He instinctively looked back and saw Mae standing at the entrance of the coffee shop.

Miles, over here! She yelled and gestured to him to approach. Miles helplessly walked over and greeted her.

Hello, Mae. What a coincidence. He said.

Yeah, my brother and I are having breakfast, and I saw you walking by. Mae smiled really big and invited Miles. Would you like to join us? Are you going somewhere?

I was actually looking for a place to have breakfast, but is this place serving food? Miles looked at the shop, and it just looked like a regular coffee shop.

Oh, this shop is my brothers friend's, so he invited us to have breakfast. There is also a giant restaurant for special customers upstairs. Come! Mae explained and dragged Miles inside. Miles looked at how Mae dressed. She had a formal black dress, while he had a t-shirt with holes and tears. He still had his slippers and worn-out jeans.

Then they arrived on the second floor and Miles noticed everyone dressed formally, his eyes twitched because of his clothes.
