Chapter 7: VII Four Months (1)
On the next day.
Elijah woke before Chloe, while watching her little sleeping face and her cute snores, he put on his clothes. His very short sleeved, animal skin jacket covers him to well below his waist and is tightly tied with string at the bottom right side.
The sleeves of his jacket are a comfortable fit and reach down to his hands, they're decorated with a single thread lining at the sleeve ends and his pants are simple and a little narrow and reach down to his bound cloth boots. The boots are made from a pretty unique cloth made with the help of alchemy, something that could not be wet or burnt and only nobles could afford to buy. "Hey Chloe, you must wake up, I heard your parents are coming today."
She opened her eyes for a second before closing again. "Wait more five minutes before I wake up, and Ell? Could you bring me my breakfast?" Elijah was thinking of something as he suddenly walked beside her with bright eyes. Chloe felt he was going to do something for her. "Wait! I'm going to wake up, you do not have to do anything."
Then he lifted her in his arms and took her away "Wait! I did not even change my clothes."
"You will go like this.
...
"Father. Mother." Elijah arrived in the main hall and immediately stood there and bowed.
"Mm."
His father, Henry, sat in the front chair while his mother was on his father's left, eating from a bowl full of red-purple fruits. His own seat was towards the right, and beside him was Chloe. Seeing her pouting and turning her gaze away from him, Elijah knew she was still a bit angry about what happened in the morning.
In front of him was a black, marble table, with two big bowls and one jar of juice on it. One contained steaming, aromatic meat, another had thick yet soft bread, and in the jar was full of orange juice. This was his breakfast.
"Mm, that's good." Elijah took a piece of meat from the first bowl and ate it. As Chloe took a piece of bread and chewed it before taking the juice in her goblet. Elijah ate very fast; like a wolf that lived ten years without eating. And then, with one second, he drank his juice as well.
"Nom nom nom." Elijah blew through the meat like a monster, and then raised his head up. "Father, mother!"
"What is it Ell?" Henry looked at his son, and Catherine did as well.
Elijah said seriously, "When can we go to the library? I wish to train and become powerful!"
Henry looks into his son's eyes and asked. "Are you sure? Is this what you really want? This world is not a good place even before the Abyss's Eight Families invasion, and the First Divine War. There is no new god in millions of years. Everyone is thirsting for power and they would do anything even if it meant serving a beast or a demon, now there are those damned Fallen Angels who are destroying our kingdom... "
Before he finished, Catherine interrupted him and said unhappily. "They are just kids. Why did you tell them all those things?" Henry realized his mistake. "Oh, sorry, I ended saying more than needed.
Elijah, Chloe I will take you two to chose your cultivation manual, I heard that father is will arrive anytime with brother and a few other from the capital"
...
After arriving at the capital, they saw some carriages approaching. When a middle-aged couple came from the carriage in the front, Chloe was the first to shout, "Father, Mother!" and jumped into the embrace of his parents. Behind them an old man dressed in purple clothes with the mark of a hammer, representing the rank of a duke. Henry and Catherine, who saw the old man bowed and said: "Father!" "Father-in-law!"
Elijah, and Chloe, who was still on her mother's lap, looked at the old man "Grandpa!"
The old man walked to Elijah and observed him. "It seems like you said to me before, Ell really changed even if you compare with other people who are Chosen only their eyes, hair and body can change not their personality, But we have others things to care. First let the children choose their Manuals before we continue to talk."
When everyone entered the library they passed by one of the family elders. A bald man called Owen. Seeing the family patriarch and his two sons, he immediately bowed. "Patriarch" the walked to the entrance of the first floor "Elder Owen, we are here to take these two kid's manual." when Elijah walked in the first floor, Shadow who was inside the dark space let out a great laughter. " Kid are you hearing me? Only a novel's main character could be as lucky as you. Hahaha, we hit jackpot. Follow me kid, I'll take you there."
Everyone was looking at the manuals, magic books, martial arts technique. When Chloe saw Elijah walking to the other side. "Ell, where are you going? We need to stay here."
"Don't worry, I will come back later."
And he runs to the end of the fifth row. "Master, is here you told me to go"
"Yes, now take the third book on the left" Elijah saw a thin book and take it.
"Is this the book that the master wanted? Thought It looks a little old, I don't think this book is that important"
When he opens the book all he saw was empty pages "Master what i do with this?"
"This kid isn't a normal book, just chant this spell and all the knowledge will come to you. " Then shadow transferred the spell to Elijah's head. "Uruz Perht Odin"
While chanting, he entered a miraculous state as the book began to meld with him, and the book's name come to his head. [Thor's Asgardian Thunder Body]
