Primordial Dimensions

There were two sources where the messages Shane received came from.

One was his family's group chat, where even his father was invited to when Shane didn't look at it, while the other were notifications telling him that the crystal packaged arrived at the Elus-merchant.

The notifications about the elemental crystal packages were useless to him because he could also look at his finances in order to figure out how much he earned and Shane was more interested in the group chat.

He estimated that Uncle Lars would share some information about the RadiantRing beast tide, once he received the report.

Additionally, it was likely that Uncle Lars would start to brag about Aisha because he raised her up after her parents died and he thought of himself like her real father, even if he wasn't.

Unsurprisingly, the chat group was filled with many questions about his well-being causing him to smile, as he slowly scrolled through the chat in order to miss nothing.

The messages caused a rollercoaster of emotion within Shane, as good and bad messages mainly written by Lars flooded him one after another.

<Fortunately we send out more reinforcement than we initially wanted, Aisha and her Valkyrie unit barely chased away the bloodlust thunder wolf. She all told me that if her last attack missed her target, that everyone within the shelter would be most likely dead..She underestimated the opponent.. Unfortunately, they couldn't kill the bloodlust thunder wolf>

<Thanks to Shane's intel, the Valkyries were prepared to face an extremely intelligent opponent but even then, 6 Valkyries died, which is a hard punch towards Aisha and her unit.>

<Meanwhile, the northern shelter wall almost collapsed but fortunately, the close combat unit interrupted the scaled lizards to complete their task by defending the wall with their live.

In the end, more than 5.000 soldiers and citizens died within the shelter, which is less than initially expected and by a large margin at that.>

<The main problem with the most casualties was however created with the first reinforcement's main force that left the shelter in order to eradicate the Wolf den.

Even if the Wolf den is destroyed, the main culprit is still alive while the main force is left with less than 10% of their soldiers. They were surrounded by thunder wolves, high-stage scaled lizards, and crystals feathered eagles with high-grade evolutions.

If my intel is not completely wrong, the main force is left with roughly 800 soldiers, while more than half of them are either traumatized or seriously injured.>

<Another bad....>

<..>

<.>

Even if Shane wanted to read everything, digesting the information was much worse than he initially expected and he couldn't help but feel a heavy weight falling on his shoulders, as he saw a particular message within the group chat.

[John Stella]<Good Job>

Seeing this message, Shane felt conflicted without knowing what exactly to think, as he saw Uncle Lars answered below the message.

<Shane may have done a good job, but he just left after the beast tide was over, without caring about the injured soldiers or giving us any information about his well-being!?!

If that wasn't enough, he left the shelter once again while knowing that a highly intelligent beast roams around the shelter.

Shane!! Do you not care about your life?!>

'Is he trying to lecture me?' Shane thought while reading the message that sounded somewhat childish..'Is he more than 150 years old or am I?!' he began to wonder as he replied annoyed.

<Uncle!!! How can you say something like that? I'm not even a Soldier and did everything I could as a citizen! But don't even try to drag me into your subordinates bulls**t! It's not my job and instead of standing in their way, I went to the place I came from before I cleared their mistakes.

Lecture them instead of me if you want to release your anger somewhere…

Furthermore, I want to live but that doesn't imply that I can stay within the shelter like a pampered youth while others throw cultivation resources at me. What is even the use of that?!!>

His temper was nothing someone should provoke and his family was more than acquaintances with such a characteristic, because of their friend, John Stella.

After venting his anger, Shane left his keyboard warrior mode and decided to calmly answer his other Uncle's and Aunt's messages within the group-chat, by sparsely telling them that he was completely fine.

His father didn't ask about his health or what he was up to, while his two words <Good Job> seemed to shake Shane more than he ever expected.

'What is wrong with me?!' he asked himself, as he felt extremely uncomfortable.

'Why can't I handle my dad?' was another thought squirming in his mind, before he closed the system messenger in order to look at his finances.

He couldn't waste too much time messaging and earning more gold coins was much more important and with the unknown amount of time he could remain within the cave, time seemed to run out even faster!

Taking a good look at his finances Shane wasn't sure how to feel, but it was definitely pleasant.

[Finances: 955 gold coins 69 silver coins]

By mining for 7 hours straight, he obtained almost 956 gold coins which was an extremely pleasant sight and if he could maintain the same routine for a few days, his fortune would increase even more.

Smiling brightly, Shane took out the contact details of the merchant he already purchased the [Mortal-(Extraordinary)] nutrition solution from, as he wrote him a short message.

<Hello sir, my name is Orus and I want to purchase 50 Tier-1 (Trash) mana stones, 4 Mortal-(extraordinary), and 6xTier-1(Trash) nutrition solutions. The required gold coins will be sent to the system's barter function to hold them until I receive my goods.>

Sending the message, It almost felt like he purchased something online as he did on earth, while the only difference was the existence of magic, monsters, and the system.

In the end, he paid the price of 346 gold coins with 14 gold coins as extra. If he were to purchase the same goods within the system he would have to pay 346 gold coins with a 10% transfer fee which would end up with him having to pay 20 gold coins more.

As such, his current situation was quite favorable.

Tier-1 (Trash) nutrition solutions were barely 2 gold coins more expensive and Shane was expecting how high their efficiency would be, because he felt that his perfect body might demand lots of nutrition and a high mana supply.

In the end, nobody except him had to pay such a heavy price within the Mortal stage and he already despised the fact that he still had to reach a perfect apprentice and expert physique, which would increase his expenses even further.

With the 360 gold coins, he paid to increase his mana purity and finally complete a perfect mortal body, most normal cultivators would already enter the Expert rank, as long as they possessed the required mana purifying manual.

Thinking about that, Shane searched through the system shop in order to look for better mana purifying, mana gathering, and body refining manual to see how much funds he had to gather in order to reach the peak of the apprentice stage.

'Huh? Why is everything so...cheap?!'
