Alakai suddenly heard a familiar sound behind him. The sound of someone leveling up. Well, it was about time too as these enemies should give her plenty of exp. And as a huge bonus, her mana would fully recover as well, even though her hp woudln't. But hp wasn't aproblem for her of course. Moments later the man could feel his body become lighter and less painful again. He would have most likely made it if she hadn't healed him, but it would have been incredibly close. And he felt a lot better now, even if still very tired.

With the bit of renewed energy he had gotten he charged the last spider. This time he didn't think of defence at all, and just went all-out to get the spider down as fast as possible. It dropped soon enough. Then a second later, Alakai almost did the same. He stumbled to the small side cave with an open door, then let himself fall on the ground once he had entered. The place was actually kind of cosy. Several stones you could sit on, surrounding a small fireplace with even a cooking pot on a tripod. These places were explained as lunch or resting area's for the people that used to work in the caves or mines before the monsters came. So now it probably wasn't any different. "I'm *pant* dead tired... *pant*" Alakai murmured as he laid there, deciding that he could eat laying down almost as well as sitting upright. "I *pant* have some food. Inventory." He spoke, the window opening in front of him instantly. He tried to click the lunchbuxes, but as soon as he would have touched the window, instead his hand automatically grabbed something out of the display in front of him. Like it was a portal to a small other dimension or something. "Interesting..." He mused, tossing one of the lunches towards Kali. They were properly packed, so no worries about the food getting dirty if she didn't manage to catch it.

He opened his own, checking to see what was inside. He had never really paid attention to what was in these regeneration items when it was a game. Two sandwiches, an apple, and a small leather pouch with some nut-looking things. He then took out the sandwich and took a bite. Immediately his face contorted. "Ugh...the hell? This food tastes like digestive biscuits..." He muttered, looking at what was in his hands. It had lettuce, cucumber, egg...the usual for a healthy sandwich really. Yet it barely had any taste, and the taste was all wrong as well! Even so, as soon as he had swallowed the bite his hp and mana started to regenerate more quickly. So it still had game effects.

(The idea for now is that, while ingredients themselves taste like normal, though maybe with different names. But when you use the cooking skill to make something out of it, it tastes like digestive bisquits/water. There's more to it, but that's something for later. ;) It has to do with why my character has cooking as sub class.)
