Days came and went as Leo rested. Even with his exceptional healing factor from being a part lion, it took him days to regrow most of his skin. On one day as he was barely awake, a Scavenger came by and warned Shia that the man must start earning his keep or they'd kill him. Shia became furious and chased the hoodlum out of her home.
A few more days went by, and Leo could finally sit up and move a bit. He learned from Shia how he was found and how the collar came to be on his neck. With his natural strength, he tried to rip it off, but the collar went off and shocked him until he was incapacitated. Since then, Leo hadn't desired to touch it.
"Shia, that man must earn his keep!" Shouted a Scavenger. The others with him shouted similar things.
Leo turned to Shia. "You don't need to cover for me. I'll go out there."
"Leo, don't go. The mine is dangerous." Shia pleaded. She lost her arm down there at a young age.
Leo flexed a bit for her and said, "Don't worry, this old body of mine pretty tough." Leo walked out the door and stared at the mere mortals before him. If he had mana or the collar off, he could wipe out this entire fort.
One of the scavengers spit at him. "How dare a miner stare at us like that!"
Leo stomped towards the stupid man causing the metal platform they were standing on to shake tremendously. The head Scavenger activated a controller causing Leo's collar to go off.
Electricity jolted through Leo's neck, making him fall on one knee. He never broke eye contact with the scavengers. This stare told them that they were pissing off a dangerous animal.
The head Scavenger let go of the controller's button and said, "Just go to the mine, and there won't be any trouble."

Leo stood and walked past the Scavengers. Almost all of them pissed themselves as he walked by them. Just a single no-mana punch would kill any of these men. Shia told Leo that the foreman of the miners is at the base of the pit.
Making his way through the fort, Leo realized many of the people here were ill or wounded. Even the scavengers he saw had some scars or body parts missing. Leo sighed that mortals do live a rough life. The ones here would never be able ever to cultivate.
Spotting an older man with a white beard to his gut, he turned to Leo and said, "You must be that fellow Shia has been nursing. You look pretty able to me." Looking at Leo's large frame, he was amazed that muscles could be that big.
Leo nodded in agreement. "Give me a guide and your heaviest ax," he said to the foreman.
The foreman waved over a small boy with a rucksack and a lamp tied to a pole. "This here fellow is Mule. He will show you the right spots to mine."
"I'm on the job, foreman." the boy said proudly. "Follow me, mister."
Mule led Leo to the tool shed. Leo looked around inside until he found an old two-handed Duat iron pickaxe. He threw up the massive tool upon his shoulder with one hand. Mule was in awe of how strong Leo looked at that very moment.
"Let's get this over with."
"Alright, I will take you to an easy spot."
"Just take me to an empty spot. So, no one will get in my way."
The boy looked at Leo and just nodded. He didn't dare piss off this massive guy. Taking an elevator down, walking down several winding paths, and passing the last miners, Mule brought Leo to a dead-end tunnel with ore covering the walls.
Leo walked up to the wall and got to work. Using his massive strength and knowledge of earth and metals, he made quick work of the area. By the end of the day, the tunnel was two feet wider, and the dead-end extended by over twelve feet.
Mule had to make several trips to haul off all the ore while Leo worked. Other miners became curious when they saw Mule hauling so much back and forth and wondered what team he was assigned to today. They followed him to find a machine of a man hacking his way through the earth like a human-drill.
"Mister, the sun is going down. The day is has ended."
Leo put his ax down and turned around to see many eyes on him. He looked over to Mule and said, "Meet me here in nine hours." With that said, Leo headed back up to Shia's place.
A broad and sturdy man walked through the door covered from head to toe in dirt.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Screamed Shia.
Leo puzzling didn't know what was wrong. He looked down and saw all the dirt on himself.
Shia came over and smacked him with a broom. "Get out of this house covered in fifth. Where you raised in a barn?"
Leo snickered at this lady, shooing him out of the house with a broom. "Fine, Shia. Stop hitting me. I will go outside and get most of the dirt off."
Seeing the young man run out the door, Shia felt like she just triumphed over a beast in an arena.
Shia brought over a bin of used water and a piece of worn cloth. Leo, sitting down on a makeshift stool, began to clean off the dirt. Leo looked at Shia, walking away, and a warm feeling comes over him. "Is this a mother's love?" Leo wondered to himself.
After cleaning up, Leo went inside and enjoyed a small meal with Shia. With the little rations they get per week, she couldn't make anything tremendous, but Leo loved the soup she made.
The days went by quickly. Leo had almost dug an utterly new tunnel all by himself. For a new guy to work so hard and efficiently made the foreman curious. Most miners complain throughout the day, but not Leo.
The scavengers paid visits daily to try and catch Leo slacking off. Little to their displeasure, he was always working and giving them no reason to toy with him.
The thing that the scavengers didn't know was they had caged a tiger. At the first moment of carelessness, it would strike and strike hard.
