What The Luck!? Chapter 199

"Well, does it have any drawbacks?" Asher saw thaT this could be a huge boon to his training. The vitamin gummies could help his body recover at a faster rate because it would have all the necessary building blocks to do so. However, it sounded too good to be true.
"Eat one a day and np more. I don't recommend that either thought. It's best to eat one pack every other day to recover. They give your body a lot of what it needs and people don't always use all of it. Most will get stored away for later." Hearing this from Jim was a lot more trustworthy. He wasn't going to try and sell them a miracle solution and was going to tell them the warnings.
Jane got a little fidgety and looked at Jim slightly embarrassed, her voice came out in a quieter tone, "Does that mean eating them too much will make someone fast?"
"That's what I mean by telling you your body will store the nutrients away for later. Our bodies will try and use everything and if they can't at the moment they like to store it away. By the way, you are friends with the girl named Laura, right?" Jim was reading from a clip board underneath the counter.
"Yes we are. Why do you ask?" Asher and Jane were both curious how she was fitting in to this conversation.
"We sent a few electronic mails to her family and doctors. Our staff is very concerned about her caloric intake and decided to put them in touch with the maker of these vitamin packs. She is qualified for a program that allows those with unique super powers like her to get these for free. I want you to bring her one and tell her top com,e here again. We have already shipped a case of a hundred to her home. These thighs last for a year without going bad."

"That's amazing! She is always snacking and worrying about her food. She said she is always worried about not eating enough." Jane was ecstatic that Laura would be able to go a few minutes without having to go get a snack. This meant that she would be able to hang out with everyone more.
"Wait, so they can just give them to her for free?" Asher was finding this too hard to believe again. It was like a roller coaster of good and bad things becoming good again.
"Of course. There are many super powers that require things like this. It would be inhumane if hero corp couldn't assist someone they gave an evo shot to. It is part of their non profit groups that pay for these and ships them. The camp always sends troubled youths' information to such groups. It is part of being a decent human being." Jim proudly stated all of this.
"You're right. A real hero doesn't need to have the flashiest super powers, just the will to reach out." Asher said this more to himself but Jim still smiled and nodded. This was an important lesson for any aspiring hero to learn.
"Here, take this one and gove it top her for tomorrow. Have her take note of how long it lasts for her before she needs another. Also, remind her she should still eat normal food as well. There are things this does not provide, it is not a perfect replacement for food." Jim gave out the last warnings.
"Can I have two as well? I should have the points for them." Asher was thinking of one for himself and another for Art, he was still worried his friend wouldn't be recovering well.
"Then I will take one too, even though I will be back to zero points." Jane laughed a little at falling so low but she had the idea that Ashgerr and he could push their training to the max before they went to the obstacle course. The combination could make them end up much more powerful before the end of the camp which seemed closer with every breath.

"Yiu got it. And since I am asking you two to take on this delivery and education mission for me I will be allowing each of you...hmmm...fifteen points." Jim made some notes on the clip board then typed in to his phone.
"Done and done, now it seems like you two are still low on points. You should get going to your rest to start a proper day in a few hours." Jim handed them a small bad with everything they had used their points on and a separate one for Laura when they saw her. "Now take the bags, Asher. This little lady might be able to carry her own, but being a gentleman is an age old tradition."
With Jim pushing the bags in to Asher's hands and Jane giggling Jim made sure they were out of the camp store and heading toward the cabins. "I don't think we even need to bother going to the dining cabin now." Jane was very happy with their haul and saw no reason to go out anywhere else.
"Agreed, we should head back and make sure Art doesn't wake up not realizing where he is. He might still be hurt somewhere if he fell over or something." Jane just rolled her eyes. Asher was like a worried mom. She was impressed though, she had known he was a caring person but not to this degree, it made him all that much better in her eyes.
Their walk was filled with more conversation on how amazing the vitamin pack was and how the camp was able to provide amazing thing after amazing thing. "I wish I knew how the camp was able to do all of this. Our school really found a treasure to be able to send us here." Asgher could not imagine the amount of money the school paid for this.
"You guys know that the school and the camp are funded by the same high ranking member of the hero corp prototype science division, right?" Asher and Jane had just walked in the door to find Art sitting up in the bed with a small smirk on his face.

Leaves of Terranthir
DISCONTINUED - I won't be writing more of this fiction. Check out the latest post for a worlbuilding summary / final thoughts. Leaves of Terranthir is a gamelit blend of ARPG, action, fantasy, and slice of life. It's inspired in part by some of my favourite games, borrowing in themes, sense of exploration, and aesthetics from the Soulsborne and soulslike genre, mixed heavily with arpg itemization from Diablo/PoE style games. While many may remember their Soulslike experiences as nothing more than suffering, I personally loved the sense of progression, to prevail over challenges and monsters that seemed impossible to defeat at first. If any of that seems interesting to you, do check out the first chapter and let me know what you think. Cheers, and thanks for reading. Cover by Baconstrap.
