Nathan went inside the thatch house and looked at the storage.
It looks a little empty with just the awakener along with a few seeds and so wheat that he harvested before sitting in there.
Another thing that Nathan learned from the space was that anything that was inside the storage won't be affected by ti.
So if he put food in the storage, no matter how much ti passes it won't expire or rot.
With that, he will be able to put anything in the storage without worrying about it.
He doesn't have to keep it in check all the ti!
Nathan picked up the awakener and went outside.
Looking at this big independent space not being used and without any life in it, Nathan crossed his hands as he stood there.
With a thoughtful expression, he said, "... I should probably start managing this place too. Letting it sit here with nothing is such a waste of a wonderful land."
These weeks that passed starting from the system activating to now, Nathan has actually been thinking about a lot of things.
With the way their life is progressing right now, it seems like good things will just keep on coming.
But Nathan felt a little stressed out with how fast things are going.
That's why he thinks that the hiking trip is necessary. To let out his pent up feelings and to relax his mind as well.
Anyway, back to the topic, since before he had things to do, he was not able to take care of this space, to manage it, causing it to look a bit desolate.
"It's ti to put this space to use!"
But first, he should go out now.
He still has to buy the hiking gear that he needs.
Closing his eyes, Nathan ca back to the real world with a thought.
When he opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was a pair of wide eyes intently staring at him.
"Woah!"
Nathan was startled and took a step back.
He almost fell down but was able to hurriedly balance himself.
"Phew~" he heaved a sigh in relief.
Looking back on the pair of eyes looking at him, Nathan realized that it was actually Natalie intently looking at him with a shocked expression.
"Tal, what are you doing!? You almost gave a heart attack!" he complained.
But Natalie just looks at him like she did not hear him.
Waving his hand in front of her face, he said, "Hello, Tal are you there?~"
It was only then that Natalie snapped out a little.
Looking at Nathan with wide eyes, she said, "Y-you, how did you suddenly disappear and appear again!?"
That question surprised Nathan!
That's right, he suddenly appeared without even caring about his surroundings!
And from what Natalie said, it was obvious that she also saw the mont he entered the dinsional space!
Nathan facepalm at his carelessness.
But after thinking of it, he was gonna let Natalie awaken anyway, so there's no problem with her discovering this now.
With that in mind, Nathan let go of his worries.
He shrugged and said, "Well, I was about to tell you anyway. Let's sit down first."
Not waiting for Natalie, Nathan went ahead and sat comfortably on the sofa.
Natalie, still dazed, slowly followed Nathan and also took a seat but kept her distance from him.
She's a little suspicious of life right at this mont.
She is even wondering if the Nathan in front of her is real!
Not knowing the things running on her mind, Nathan also started talking.
The mood suddenly changed as he seriously look at her and solemnly said,
"First of all, I want you to promise that you will keep everything that I'm about to tell you a secret, okay?"
Nathan might seem like he's acting a little too cautious but it is better this way.
If anyone discovers the existence of an awakener, trouble will surely keep coming their way.
In a world 'without' supernatural powers, people will surely do anything just to get their hands on sothing that will give them power!
Especially those people at the top, with power, within the governnt as well as the rich.
He doesn't want to get involved in anything troubleso, that is the reason for his cautiousness.
Natalie nodded her head vigorously like a chicken.
With Natalie's agreent, Nathan proceeds to tell her about soul talents.
He told Natalie his own soul talent, what's a soul talent, the awakener, and other things.
Nathan tried to give Natalie as much detail as she needs for her to better understand everything he is telling her.
After several minutes, Nathan finished.
"Did you understand everything?" he asked,
Natalie seems to still be digesting the information that she got, but after a few seconds, she nodded.
"Yes, brother. I understand!"
At first Natalie was wondering why Nathan told her to keep everything that he's about to tell a secret, but now, she understood.
With Natalie's maturity and brain, it's not a problem for her to imagine what would happen if people learn of soul talents and how much trouble it would bring her brother.
That's why she swears to herself to never spill anything that Nathan wants to keep secret.
…
"That's good!"
Nathan nodded with a gentle smile.
"Next, this is sothing that I want to ask you."
"What is it, brother?"
Taking out the awakener that his been holding and putting it in front of Natalie, with a serious tone, Nathan asked,
"Do you want to awaken your soul talent?"
"? Awakening?"
Surprised, Natalie pointed to herself as she asked Nathan.
"Yes, you. Awakening your soul talent will bring great benefits to us." He paused, then he continued, "Also, it is very dangerous for us if we remain as normal people in this world."
"What happened earlier was just an example of how cruel this world is!"
Hearing Nathan's word's, Natalie rembered that scene where Nathan was bleeding from his shoulder.
And suddenly, she beca certain.
"You're right, brother." Looking directly in Nathan's eyes, she said, "I would like to also awaken my soul talent!"
