16 Chapter 16

Lienor realized that everyone's still watching so he immediately stopped being dramatic and introduced the little child to them .

" This is Kryst , the child i met in the forest while picking up woods.  "  

Kryst was pushed by Lienor to face the crowd and suddenly felt aversion to the attention he's getting .

Kryst pulled down his hood and just politely bowed slightly . The whole atmosphere turned awkward because of that . The tribesmen awkwardly waved hello back . Kryst on the other hand regretted visiting Lienor .

Kryst interrupted Lienor's enthusiastic introduction and said . " Since you're out of danger now , I'll go back. "

Lienor immediately pulled Kryst. " Wait wait! Please stay for a while . Please? "

" ... " Kryst

" Why would i stay? What would i even do here?"

Lienor smiled sheepishly and said. " To become my mascot . "

Mascot? What's that ?

" Stay here to keep me away from depression. "

" ... "

A few seconds later , the small eagle nodded it's head along with its beak. " Ok "

The red haired young man's eyes immediately sparkled . He excitedly hugged the little boy and pulled him to his embrace . " You know Crispy? You're my happy pill hahaha . "

- happy pill ... That's a weird term . -

The scene of a young man hugging a child with a stoic expression looked comical to the eyes of the tribesmen . They felt like Lienor was taking advantage of the child .

One thought then flashed across their minds . - this must be Lienor's child bride. . Let's avoid getting in a scandal with this beautiful child , or else , this Lienor will slit their throat for sure . -

Liena watched as her brother laughed heartily while hugging the young boy . It seemed that , her brother's smile right now is more genuine than the smile she had seen before .

Liena's eyes landed on the boy . The boy also stared back calmly at her .

Suddenly , Liena noticed a snow white dog beside her .

" Aaaah!!!! "

Simultaneously , all the tribesmen's eyes landed on Liena's body who is currently screaming and pointed at a certain place with a look of horror . The tribesmen's eyes then followed and saw a small wolf like dog .

" A white wolf!!!! "

" A wolf followed us here!!! "

The whole tribe suddenly started panicking and all spears pointed at the dog . One spear flew and was about to stab at Pitzy when the silent kid being hugged by Lienor suddenly moved and immediately mobilized his ability to create a defensive barrier around Pitzy and blocked the upcoming deadly weapons .

" Pitzy "

The scared spitz dog whinned pitifully and barked softly at Kryst . Kryst looked at the panicking people and slowly said . " Calm down . That dog isn't a shapeshifter . It's a beast . "

Kryst walked forward and removed the cobweb like barrier and carried up the trembling puppy .

Liena who got scared earlier restrained her fear and asked the little boy . " Is it really a real beast? Not one of the blood warriors in the White Wolf Tribe ? "

Kryst nodded to her .

Lienor on the other hand suddenly realized something . " Wait Crispy , you know how to speak their language? "

Cr-- Kryst glared at Lienor for changing his name without his permission then was suddenly averted to another topic . " .... " How should he answer that?

" I ... I never said i couldn't speak your language . "

When Lienor heard what Kryst said . Only then did he realized that he quickly fell into a conclusion without the other party telling him something.

Kryst also was inwardly shocked , he thought his ability could only enable him to feel the thoughts of some low spiritual beasts , but it seems that his ability isn't just limited to that .

He really couldn't understand why he had such ability though . He rarely communicates with humans , what use is his second ability?

Lienor then faced his fellow tribesmen while still leaning awkwardly on a tree . " Crispy and i met this dog nearby the waterfalls . Animals like Crispy and met Pitzy . This snow white dog may look like a wolf , but don't you see that it somehow also resembled a fox? "

Kryst immediately noticed that Lienor uttered Pitzy's name . Then watched as the tribesmen's eyes turned confused .

Kryst extended his hand to let the whole tribesmen take a careful look to the snow white dog .

Then their eyes changed into shock and surprise , then to excitement . " A fox!!! "

" Pitzy must be some kind of a breed from a two different kinds of beasts . This dog ... Really looks beautiful . "

" Yes yes , and cute too . "

And so , Kryst watched as the whole tribesmen surrounded Pitzy while Kryst slowly backed away and hid the sneer in his lips .

Can you feel what the feeling is when you're always followed by an annoying creature? Feel it Pitzy , the tribesmen is just as annoying as you are .

But it seems that this two faced stupid dog likes the attention he's getting . Kryst didn't feel disappointed that Pitzy didn't meet his expectation and just went back to the sidelines , Pitzy will eventually get annoyed by the attention once it gets full .

Kryst faced Lienor then crouch down beside him . He put down the basket behind him then asked Lienor . " Let me check your body . "

Lienor took off his jacket and revealed his wounds . Kryst didn't even flinch when saw such terrifying wounds . He was already used to it . Lienor pouted , he wanted to make the little guy feel worry for him but look at his reaction .

" You already cleaned this wounds? " Kryst touched it lightly .

Then suddenly , a small thread pierced through Lienor's skin and started sewing Lienor's skin carefully . Kryst's control over his ability wasn't as dexterous as before in his past life but at least it's better than being incapable of controlling it .

Lienor excitedly watched the little guy sewing his wounds and couldn't help thinking. He must be really a protagonist!!! Look at his ability! So useful! But still ... Having these kinds of wounds , Lienor gritted his teeth and almost cried out .

Kryst was about to retract his ability but he suddenly widened his eyes when he felt his thread that is in his control sucking the blood that is leaking out of Lienor's wounds .

Kryst immediately retracted his thread and stopped the thread from sucking more blood .

Lienor got confused by the rapid movements of Kryst as he pull out the thread . " What's wrong? "

The eagle head slightly moved up then shook . " Nothing "

Kryst then looked at the ground ...

- when did my thread gained life? -

Kryst could feel the fleeting excitement the thread had when it came into contact with the blood that was from Lienor's chest .

Lienor has a lot of wounds , especially cuts and scratched from the claws of the wolf and although Lienor has the least amount of wounds compared to the almost comatose people lying at the side .

Lienor has the most fatigued warrior and Kryst could feel the exhaustion in Lienor's muscles .

" You sleep ... "

Lienor blinked then shook his head . " I still have to supervise my stupid tribesmen . "

Kryst coldly glared at the stupid man . " What? You're not even their saint . Why worry about them? Worry at yourself first . It's not a sin to be a little selfish sometimes . You're wounded yourself

If you helped them , when will they grow? Let them experience the hardships of the life in the wildlands and learn how to survive without the Chief's priest . Think stupid man , this is the flaw of your tribe . "

" If you want your tribe to grow up and become stronger , let them become more organized and mature , only then would they no longer feel fear once their leader is absent . " Kryst couldn't understand why he spoke such a long speech for a stupid man .

Lienor however was shocked when he heard such a mature words coming out of the mouth of the small child .

He was also reminded that he really is not a holy saint as Kryst said .

He's just an ordinary warrior , why would he take the responsibility when he is wounded himself .

- then ... Let me be a little bit more selfish for now . -

Lienor obediently lied down and covered himself with the animal hide . " Please guard me from danger , Crispy . "

Kryst looked at the pale man then slowly nodded . " Stupid , of course i would take good care of you . This is the only thing i can do for you , for also taking good care of me when i was sick . "

Kryst patted the stupid man's forehead and covered the man's stubborn eyes " close your eyes , and take a rest . "

When Lienor heard the gentle , yet soft voice of the kid . Lienor couldn't help trembling .

He is scared ...

He is really scared .... He almost died from the battle .

When he felt the time going back while he's in the middle of slaughtering . He could feel the terrible fear looming over his whole being ... And felt the grim reaper laughing just behind his back readying the scythe to behead him .

He was just an ordinary man in the modern world ...

Experiencing such near death experience ... Lienor wouldn't believe if he didn't even feel any scant of fear .

" Kryst "

Kryst hummed in question .

" Thank you . "

Kryst clicked his tongue . " Stupid . "
