"Am I okay, did everyone survive?" Xin asked, since he couldn't tell how the others were as soon as his magic exploded.
As Xin recovered, he did not know how deeply he was connected to the Xenos and how his actions had impacted everyone at the base. Marie, with her caring presence and words spoke. "Everyone survived, thanks to you, they all talked about how you saved their lives!"
"Where are they, let's talk to them." Xin said getting up.
"Are you okay to get up?" Marie asked a bit worried.
"Yes, I used healing magic on myself, I'm improving quickly." He said as he stood up with some difficulty.
He and a Marie floating in the air beside him followed the corridor out of that room and walked slowly through the Xenos base on the 23rd floor, supported by Marie who offered a friendly shoulder.
"The human woke up!" He heard a xenos shout in the corridor and run out to warn the others as Xin approached.
Xin reached a larger area with all the xenos waiting for him to arrive. The sight of everyone looking at him instead of being cautious, looking with gratitude was quite a contrast to the first time he met the group with Lyd and Marie, he could have helped Marie and have Lyd's trust, but he was still a stranger, which didn't seem to be the case at that moment.
Along the way, he met several members who had fought bravely by his side against the Juggernaut. They were also bandaged, recovering from the fight and despite their own injuries and exhaustion, there was a sense of camaraderie and mutual respect that filled the air.
Xin saw the relief and gratitude in the eyes of Marie and the other Xenos filled the atmosphere. He had fought not only for himself but for those he now considered friends and allies.
Lyd, with a visible bandage on his arm, was one of the first to approach Xin.
"You really surprised us, Xin," He said with a crooked smile, admiration evident in his voice. "Your magic and courage... You saved many of us. It was amazing!"
Xin nodded humbly.
"I did what needed to be done," He replied, "but it wouldn't have been possible without all of you fighting by my side."
Other Xenos gathered around, each expressing their gratitude and admiration in their own way, even those who did not witness the battle, rubbed their heads against parts of Xin's body as a form of thanks.
Gross, the robust Xenos who had been saved by one of Xin's magic spheres, pounded his chest in a gesture of respect. "Xin, I may not have liked you and always treated you as a threat, but I can't deny that you saved my life along with the others. Your fight will not be forgotten."
"Even in danger, you helped us!" Ray spoke, flapping his wings as a gesture of gratitude.
"In the end, we managed to win the fight, that's all that matters, and we didn't suffer any fatal loss despite the danger." Erebus commented nearby; he had regeneration, so he was the least injured-looking among those who fought.
"Where is Asterius?" Xin asked, not seeing the iconic Minotaur with his large sword.
"He went to train, said that this fight showed how weak he was." Lyd spoke, and Xin nodded.
"It was incredible, I thought I was going to die!" Let appeared with the other 2 weaker companions who fought in the battle.
"Yes, I can't believe we won!" The spider woman spoke beside him.
