As soon as I entered the building of Red Tail, I was greeted by Daniel who was just about to go to bed.
"Daniel! I'm back!"
"Roy!"
The small boy run toward with his small steps and hugged tightly. He's the one who loves the most among everyone I have t both in this life and my previous life. I could never understand why his mother would abandon him.
"Have you been a good boy?"
"I am! Aunt Ruby taught how to count and I already able to count to ten!"
"That's great! What about writing?"
"Wait!"
Daniel run toward the counter and took a paper. Then he returns to and shows what he write on the paper.
"Here!"
I looked at his writing and read my na. There's many scribbling as well. Looks like he tried so hard just to write my na instead of his own na.
There's many ti he wrote it wrong, like 'ROI', ' roI', 'LOI', 'Roo', and many other wrong writings until he finally got it right. Well, I'm glad he didn't write 'Loo'.
Seems like he was only taught his ABCs and Ruby told him to practice it himself without telling him how to spell my na. I guess it works.
"You did great!"
"I'm wrong so many tis but I finally got it right!"
"You really smart, Daniel. Next ti, try to write your own na. Then Ruby's, Sophie's, Hannah's, and everyone's na. They will be happy if they received their own na written by you."
"I will do my best!"
I looked at Ruby who keep smiling seeing our interaction.
"Ruby, where are the others?"
"They are already sleeping. Today, all of them went training in the forest together with your two friends Angela and Kayla. They must be exhausted after training the whole day. They haven't even eat dinner yet and already went to their own rooms… well, other than Sophie who choose to sleep in your room… Hannah's mother, Penny, also train hard and she's already asleep with Hannah."
"I see. They worked hard. Once they woke up, please give them these. These are souvenirs for them."
I put several jewelries on the counter. They are not the one I have shown Sam. They are specially picked as souvenir for the girls. There are bracelets, earrings, necklaces and rings.
"What about ?"
"Of course you will get one. Here, I'll give you this ring. But since you're still small, you can wear it as necklace like this. Don't show it off in public, okay?"
"Okay! Thanks Roy!"
The girls are free to take whatever they wanted. But for the children, Daniel and Hannah, I gave them rings since they're still too young for jewelries. I used a string to turn the rings into a necklace. But maybe I shouldn't have given the kids rings since they are still too young. I should have bring them toys but I forgot to buy so.
"Ruby. Those are for everyone except Sophie. Since she's sleeping in my room, I'll give her myself."
"Okay. Daniel, tonight you will sleep with Aunty again."
"Um!"
Daniel nodded while holding the ring hanging on his neck happily.
"Oh! And do you have so food left? I'm starving."
"Wait a bit. I'll cook so food for you."
After finishing my dinner, I went to my room to rest.
I opened the door and seems like Sophie got awake because of the sound of the door creaking.
"Hmm…"
"I'm back. You can go back to sleep."
"…Rooooyyy."
"You're sleep talking. I heard you worked hard today. Go get so rest. I have a souvenir for you. I'll give it tomorrow when you have rested well.
"Unnn…"
Just as I told her to go back to sleep, she's already asleep. Looks like the training today is to tiring.
And she's taking so much space on the bed. I can't even lay there anymore. Got no choice. I'll sleep on Blobby bed tonight.
The next morning, sohow Sophie ended up hugging in her sleep. And my movent as I awake woke her up.
"Hnnn… morning, Roy."
"Morning. Did you have a good dream?"
"Yeah. You were so dreamy in my dream."
"But not in real life. Wake up and let's get so breakfast. I heard that you haven't eaten yet since you returned yesterday. And before I forget, this is a souvenir for you."
"What is it?"
"So kind of magic equipnt. This necklace if you put your magic in it, it will make a barrier around you. It can protect your life just once so I hope you won't ever use it."
"Roy… Thank you. But this is too much for . What about your girlfriends Kayla and Angela?"
"I have sothing else for them. And my girlfriend at the mont is just Kayla. I'll give it to them at school so let's have breakfast first."
The necklace I gave Sophie is one of the treasure I found underwater. I saw it a few tis in my previous life. It's called Necklace of Protection. It will build a barrier surrounding the user once it used. Then it will break as soon as the barrier vanished.
For Kayla and Angela, I also will give them magic equipnt I found. I hope they will like it.
"Roy… about your girlfriend… she says that she allow you to build a harem. I want to be part of it. But I'm not prepared for it yet. Will you wait until I sort my thoughts?"
"I'll wait as long as you want. But for soone who is not prepared to be my lover to sleep in my bed… I think it won't take long for you to reach an answer."
"Haha… You may be right."
We had a noisy breakfast this morning with all of the girls choosing what kind of jewelry they want. It was peaceful.
After breakfast before going to school, I told Ruby that I have sothing to tell everyone so I want everyone to gather after school. I also told her that I will bring Angela and Kayla as well. It's about moving to Cassau. I want them all to move to Cassau before the monsters stampede.
I went to school normally and et Angela and Kayla walking together to school. So I greet them and told them to co to Red Tail after school.
There's sothing different about school, though. The students who almost never went to school suddenly choose to attend. I asked Kayla what's going on.
"Oh, there's a new teacher coming a few days ago. From how there are more male students than female, you should be able to guess why they choose to attend."
"I see. So Ms. Wendy already co, huh?"
"You know her? Wait. Since it's your second life, of course you knew her. What do you think about her?"
"She's very beautiful and can be trusted."
I rember it well. She's a mber of the king's secret agents. During the war, it was her and her agency that find the most information about the cult. In the future, one of the agent betrayed the country and spread false accusation to Wendy and so of her friends in the agency. She was then hunted and died soon after.
But this ti, I won't let her die. After all, in my previous life, I am one of her admirers! In fact, I should be among the male here and would shalessly sat in the front seat even though I couldn't understand the lesson whenever it was her class.
Although I don't have the sa admiration feeling I have at that ti, I still don't want her to repeat the sa fate. This ti, I will try to save her.
I will try make contact with her later. But not today. Today I have sothing to tell everyone at the Red Tail. I also has to prepare a letter to the king to give her. I will tell the king about the cult's plan in the near future so he will be prepared when the cult attack. I need to write a good story first so I'll make contact with Wendy later.
"I have souvenir for you two. For Angela, it's a red robe that increase your magic resistance."
I gave the first souvenir to Angela.
"Thanks! Is this what you got from 'fishing'?"
"Yes. I got a lot of treasures. That's why I decided to give you so. What I gave you and the others is at least common equipnt or jewel. I can't have you bring attention with super rare magic equipnt after all. I left so at Sam's to sell. I'm gonna be rich!
Then Kayla will have this wand. It help improve the efficiency of healing magic. The tip is pretty sharp and the material is quite durable, so you might be able to use this as a makeshift rapier as well."
"Cool! Thanks! I feel like my healing elent has improved a lot and soon I will reach Interdiate level in healing elent. This wand might be able to help improve more on it."
"Really? That's aweso. Tell when you want to cultivate to improve your level. I have a few tricks I know about levelling up and be stronger than a normal level up."
"I will."
"And after school, I want you two to co with to Red Tail. I have an announcent to tell you and all the girls."
"About what?"
"Future plan, I guess?"
Then we went to school together ignoring the noise made by the new teacher's admirer while telling the girls about what I did during my ti in Cassau. They seems to be interested in diving as well. I will try to improve my air elent so I can make other people breathe anywhere as well. That way, we can grab more treasures.
