Bab 5: Recovery
Ryker looked at the forest. It had been 50 weeks since the day they had seen their parents for the last time. From the teleportation formation, they had been sent to the middle of a forest in the middle of nowhere.
Thankfully, his parents had made some preparations, giving him a spatial artifact called Hidden Ancient Mansion. The artifact is usually in the form of a bead, though it can transformed into a full-blown mansion while being used.
In fact, the most impressive thing regarding the artifact is that the inside is more spacious than it looks. It is probably enough to fit several mountains inside if he believes Esran's estimation.
Still, the weakness of the artifact is that it can turn into a bead or a mansion, though it is mostly because he is currently weak. Previously, at his peak, he could enter the artifact while it was in a bead form.
He let out a sigh, it probably took some time for him to achieve his previous strength, though he accepted the price of being back to the bottom if it meant his strength could rise to a higher level. No sacrifice is heavy if it means his siblings' safety.
He woke up from his thought by a figure hugging him from behind.
"Big brother, let's go inside and eat. Everyone waiting for you," Ayani, one of the quintuplets, said.
Nodding, he followed the smaller girl, ruffling her black lock while at it. The girl hummed happily. She always likes having her hair ruffled like that.
They soon arrived at the dining room, the others awaiting him. Food already served, courtesy of Ilina and Sheena.
"Big brother's here. Can we eat now?" Fenrir, a 5-year-old with white hair, asked impatiently.
"Yes, we can eat now," Ryker replied, everyone soon taking their seat, the youngest of the siblings naturally found their natural perching, on his lap.
Feeding the now almost two-year-old girl, he looked at all of his siblings, one he promised to his parents that he would protect them with all his life.
The eldest, after him of course, is Ilina, a black-haired girl with a calm temperament. She's the most responsible, making sure everything going smoothly in their family.
The second is Ezekiel, a white-haired boy with reckless behaviour, thankfully curbed though he does revert sometimes. He's the bravest of his younger siblings, though that leads to him being reckless.
The third is Esran, a glass-wearing black-haired boy, the smart one in the family. He possesses great intellect, though lacks filter and he often speaks in an emotionless tone.
The fourth and last one of the quartet is Sheena, a girl with a white lock. She's the most adventure-savvy of the family, possessing great curiosity with some restraint if danger is present.
While he often refers to them as a quartet, they are not quadruplets. All of them were born on different dates, 45 weeks being the age difference of the eldest to the second eldest and so on.
Still, with a group of 4 capable 10-year-olds, he was able to focus on recovering while they watched over their younger siblings. He is truly blessed in that department.
For the quintuplet, they were a true quintuplet, being born on the same day. All of them currently are 5 years old.
The oldest is Kay, a boy with white hair and the calm one of the quintuplet. He often acts as the mediator between his siblings, making sure they don't argue too much.
The second oldest is Ayani, a cheerful black-haired girl, being the fun-raiser, as she called herself, of the family.
The third is Amari, a gloomy black-haired girl who speaks little and has a weird aura around her. Despite her gloomy presence, she is a sweetheart despite her attempt to tell him he is wrong.
The fourth is Fenrir, a somewhat wild boy with white hair. He can be described with one word, feral. Still, he loves his family even more than he loves food, and that is saying something.
The fifth is Fiora, a timid white-haired girl, always hiding near the garden in the mansion. Still, she is one of the most kind-hearted of his siblings, someone who was loved dearly by all of them.
The sixth is Atavi, a loud but caring boy with black hair. He is somewhat brash though he makes up for being helpful, in his way.
The seventh is Darius, a black-haired boy with a prideful attitude. He thankfully listens to his older siblings, but he can speak in a pompous way.
The last of the quintuplet is Elesa, a white-haired girl with an elegant temperament. She can be described as graceful though not all the time.
Of course, one could not forget the last of his siblings, the cute and adorable Ariana. With sheer cuteness, she could put down even him, and he had some resistance to it, being exposed to 12 others before her.
Still, the silver-haired girl could force you to surrender with one pitiful look. Truly, the greatest of his siblings.
Looking at his siblings with a caring gaze, he decided to tell them his plans.
"Alright, after we finish eating, I'm going to tell you our plan for the future," he announced.
A bit taken, his siblings began to eat quicker, Ariana looking at her older siblings in confusion before going back to focus on the more important stuff, namely the food his brother feeding her.
After they were done, they looked at him with some expectation.
"I'm going to fully heal in the next week. Then I'm going to focus on my cultivation. When I reach the Genesis Gathering realm, we will begin our journey,"
