Chp 7 : The Taste Of Warm Milk

But only the saints of the churches can perform this magic, which is why it costs a lot. There was only 1 saint for every 10 churches.

...

This family barely had enough to buy food to sustain the 3 of them- how in the world are they supposed to afford treatment?

...

But Siun was alright, Elena and Silas were just alarmed of Siun suddenly throwing up on Elena while she was breast feeding him.

[Tex : hahaha!]

[Siun : Hey shut up! it was already embarrassing the first time! you dont have to keep reminding me every time!]

...

...

...

"Hahahaha look at our cute Siun crawling through the grass! isn't he lovely?" Elena shouted out in an endearing voice, she loved everything that Siun did... even when he threw up on her...

The cute little family : Silas, Elena and Siun were having a picnic near the woods. The weather was nice and clear and the bees were buzzing around. It seemed as if nothing could stop the family from having fun.

"Mama, Papa!"

Siun was now 9 months old, and he is able to crawl around pretty fast. he was as fast as a really athletic turtle... there really is no other way to describe it, the speed was pretty fast for a baby yet incredibly slow for everything else!

The family played in the grass and ate snacks together for quite a while.

[Siun : Wow Tex! what is this flavor?! Its so sweet and nostalgic!]

[Tex : I see you have a sweet tooth... im surprised you forgot what caramel was, but I suppose it is a delicacy for your family since that tiny piece of caramel you are eating right now costs almost half of your father's pay]

...

As soon as Siun heard that he silently choked and stopped eating anymore food, afraid that it would cost a lot of money.

[Siun : If only we were rich... I could eat all the caramel I want!]

[Tex : You can have all the caramel in the world if you help the Hero kill the Demon Lord]

What Tex said just lit up Siun's heart with determination! Siun was determined to go back to his own world with a golden spoon and all the caramel he wanted!

[Siun : Is there anything I can do right now? where is the Hero? When am I gonna get those side tasks you talked about? I cant wait!]

[Tex : *tsk* what a simple minded host!]

As Elena, Silas, Siun and Tex were all talking a small light hovered to Siun and it caught his attention.

[Siun : Huh? Tex what is this?]

[Tex : What's what?]

[Siun : There's a little glowing ball of light in front of me...]

[Tex : Are you sure you're not seeing stuff? maybe your high on all that sugar you shoved into you body!]

Siun ignored Tex's usual snarky remarks. As his parents were busy admiring the view and talking to each other, Siun reached his hand out to touch the little glowing ball of light.

When he touched it he could feel the sensation of heat and somehow he could taste warm milk. Siun could also hear the faint sound of playful songbirds. And on top of all that you could smell warm crisp cinnamon.

...

A sensory overload for some, but for Siun, he felt at home and safe from the whole world

...

As Siun stopped touching the little glowing light he started to feel comfortable and drowsy. Elena and Silas noticed this, and quieted down as to not wake up the little Siun. They were actually getting quite worried about him because they noticed that Siun usually dreaded going to sleep, because every time he wakes up Siun would usually throw up.

But this time they had a feeling that he would wake up and feel more refreshed than he has ever been.

...

The family stayed their for a little while until the sun started to set, there was no sign of Siun waking up, so Silas and Elena carried Siun home.

...

...

...

It was a small and yet deep pond, filled with crystal clear water that shone like diamonds. Even though the pond was clear, when you touch it, it felt soft like fresh milk.

Unlike the black void Siun was in before, this void had a euphoric feeling to it... and the small pond right in the middle was illuminating the white void with a soft golden light.

...

[Siun : Where am I?]
