10 Chapter 10

Lienor immediately went out to fetch a clam shell . When he woke up as Lienor , before the Trading Team was about to trade with the other tribes again , he asked the trading team leader to search for some clam shell . He drew the appearance of the clam shell on a light brown mud , the next month , The Trading Team returned with the clam shell . Lienor was so happy that time and immediately used the clam shell as a cooking pot .

Because of that , almost all of his fellow Red Foxes tribesmen used clam shells as pots and also because of his contribution to the tribesmen , he recieved a fair share of salt .

But still , salt is still rare . The sea was so far away from the tribe place so he couldn't make his own salt.  

Lienor cut the meat of a hunted wildboar and chopped it down to a rectangular slices . He also washed the vegetables he recieved from Kryst . There's an obvious bright smile on the surface of his countenance and this is the scenario that Lucas saw when he passed by .

" Oh?! Where did you get that vegetables ah? Ainor . " Spoke Lucas and crouched down in front of the stone stove . The clam shell was laid on top of the three stones , and a hot fire burned below with dry woods .

" I got it from my daddy . " Lienor sarcastically remarked .

Lucas' face froze and stared at Lienor with unbelievable face . " You're dad's already dead . "

" Then i got it from the dead . "

Lucas just chose to remain silent . There's no benefits when you speak to Lienor , he always have a lot of ways to make you dumbfounded.

" You want some? " Asked Lienor , the soup is already boiling hot . It can be eaten already , Lienor slowly crawled to the tent's entrance and entered his hands inside to get the wooden bowl . He tried his best not to let Lucas peek inside .

Unfortunately , Lucas noticed Lienor's peculiarity instantly . " What are you hiding in there? You look so suspicious . "

Lucas stood up to move the tent's entrance. Lienor's eyes widened and shouted . " Don't! "

Lucas' body froze when he saw a living angel sleeping on the brow fur carpet . Kryst's sleeping body seems to be sparkling with glittering flower petals and in his vision , Lucas rubbed his eyes and felt that he saw bright yellow flowers floating pass his eyes. 

Is he hallucinating?

He's indeed hallucinating , it's just that Kryst's was just too beautiful that he started seeing animated effects when seeing Kryst .

Lienor angrily pushed Lucas away and closed the curtain . " I told you to not intrude my private space without my permission . Why are you so stubborn . "

Lienor angrily took a deep breathe and carefully peeked inside , fortunately , the little guy was not awakened by Lucas' intrusion .

Lucas absentmindedly spoke . " Ainor , who's that little angel . "

Lienor angrily slapped the dazed Lucas and pushed him away . " Go away! Go back to your patrol."

Lucas immediately woke up from his trance and was about to head back to the tent but Lienor blocked him .

" Hey dude , let me see the angel again. "

" No! "

Lucas pouted.  " Just where did you get such beautiful angel , Lienor? Point it out to me , I'll also get one . "

Lienor gave Lucas a death stare . His eyes were so cold that Lucas subconsciously shivered . Lienor looks so scary!

" I know , i know , I'll keep it a secret . "

Only then did Lienor relaxed but he's still vigilant. Lucas silently watched Lienor's shoulder relaxing . Lucas reluctantly gave up , such cute creature , he still wants to behold it a little bit more .

Lucas pouted and lifted up his wooden spear before waving a farewell to Lienor. " Don't worry Ainor ... I will not mention it to anyone.  "

Lienor mouthed a thank you and sighed in relief before killing the fire off the stove . The left behind bowl was finally used as Lienor filled it with soup , vegetables and meat . The rich fragrant of the stew diffuse to the air , making the nearby tribesmen sigh in jealousy . Some even peeked from inside their tent and watched as the young man entered the tent with the clamshell .

When Lienor entered the tent , he almost loosened his grip on the clamshell and bowl when he saw Kryst's current situation. 

Lienor carefully put the steaming soup at the low table and crawled to Kryst's side . Kryst's body heat has risen , and it is particularly obvious just base on the color of his skin .

Lienor touched his forehead and flinched from the scalding heat of his skin .

The toddler seems to have noticed his presence and quietly groaned . " I feel weak ... Water. "

Lienor immediately flew to fetch a water and entered the tent back with a bamboo cup full of water . He then carefully helped the toddler to sit up despite the scalding heat coming off from the toddler's body .

Such high fever ... In his tribe's case , the toddler would have long since died! Unbelievably , the toddler still survived .

" What's wrong with you boy? What happened? "

Kryst's hoarsely answered.  " I don't know either.  "

A crystal tear suddenly drip off the toddler's eyes . The toddler gives off a kind of weak appearance , and Lienor felt pity for him . Kryst however could remember this kind of incident before in his past life , this happened to him when he was injected with a serum by a scientist . That's when he failed to awaken miserably , he began to go berserk at that time and killed a lot of monsters that was sent by the scientists inside the cell .

And because of that , he gained quite a lot of injuries back then . No one aided his injuries and Kryst could only steal some first aid kit from the lab and heal himself in the bathroom where no one monitors him. 

He was at the age of 12 at that time and he already developed Schizoid Personality Disorder ( as for how he knew it , he heard it from some scientists who examined his body and mental health .) . He's emotionally detached and often shy away from socializing and he really lacks close friends .

He's a loner , and sometimes feel both inferior and superior . After he failed awakening , his mental disorder got worsened and avoided talking to other people .

Whenever someone tries to talk to him , he avoided them . Whenever someone praises his looks , he didn't even feel bashful or react. He lacks motivations and goals , and doesn't even have any interest on blending with his co- test subjects .

The only thing that made him feel an interest to training his own body was when he secretly found out that his ability got finally awakened and assimilated with his body .

Yggdrasil told him before that his corpse was put inside the elf fruit together with his soul to be reborn . That means , his ability could be reawakened in his elf body.

No wonder he suddenly got a fever without any warning . It is probably because he is about to reawaken his ability . He doesn't know why it got stimulated , it is probably because of his healthy body that his ability woke up .

Kryst suddenly felt a cold sensation on his cheeks . Kryst slowly opened his eyes , his sight was a bit blurry , he subconsciously closed his eyes and opened it again .

The young man's magnified face appeared upon his sight , because of the Elves' good eyesight , Kryst could even see the pores on the young man's face .

This young man is surprisingly good looking , although he's not as good looking as him . At least he's also attractive . " Stupid man , why are you staring at me so close . "

Kryst then saw the young man's face relaxing . Kryst didn't react them slowly licked his dry lips . " How long has the time passed since i was asleep? "

Lienor answered and patted the toddler's cheeks . " You've been asleep for a whole week . I was so worried that you'll die so i took the liberty to wash your body , feed you with soup , feed you water and so on . I thought you got infected by some bacteria so i asked the priest how to cure a fever , but the priest was useless . I could only watch you there lying with a scalding body . Just what's going on? Why did you suddenly got a fever? "

Lienor spoke so fast but Kryst could still understand every single words he said. Kryst sneered and slowly sat up .

Lienor's suddenly clapped his hands drawing Kryst's attention back to him . " What? "

Lienor scanned Kryst's body up and down and spoke . " You grew up ... How come . "

" I did? "

Lienor nodded . " Before , you look like a 3 years old baby . Now , you look like a 5 years old baby . "

" Cut that baby off your mouth . " Kryst dully spoke and touched his feet and head .

He seemed to have really grown up . Maybe because he's not an elf . Do elves grow up really fast? He saw from the book before that elves was supposed to mature at the age of 200 in myths.

The elves have a very long lifespan , but they matured really slow .

How come he grew up really fast , if this goes on he might grow to become a 1'9 tall person in just 12 years .

He was about to talk with the red haired young man again but Yggdrasil's voice suddenly resonated within his head .

" Baby K ... You successfully awakened two abilities . Congratulations . "

Huh? Two?
