章節 20: The Reality
''Sure, No problem'' Stefan replied.
Aouli was curious about Arwen's chest which was full of bandages, exactly like him, to observe more closely, he struggled to get down from Stefan's arms.
Stefan bent down so that Aouli could easily step on the ground. Aouli quickly crouched down, blinked his big golden eyes, and observed Arwen's wounds wrapped in bandages with a little blood visible to the naked eyes. He asked Stefan, '' Is he also injured like Aouli?'' while looking at him, waiting for his answer.
''Hm. He is also injured, just like Aouli. Aouli was in pain when he got hurt right?, So Brother Arwen is also in pain. He was bitten by a monster. Aouli should comfort Big Brother Arwen, isn't that right?'', asked Stefan.
''Yes!'', replied Aouli after tilting his head and thinking seriously for some time.
''Brother Arwen, don't worry! Aouli will help you blow on your wounds, and it won't be painful anymore. But!, How should Aouli help brother Arwen blow?'', he looked at Arwen's chest which was wrapped in bandages, and asked confusingly.
''You have to think that on your own, Little One!'' Arwen said teasingly.
Stefan was watching their interaction amusingly and let out a happy smile from time to time.
'He was glad that he won't be all alone anymore. In his previous life, his parents only cared about the money he earned. But he never told anyone about them. When asked, he would just reply that they were busy with their jobs and had no time to take care of him and that despite their busy schedule they still loved him very much. But only he knew, that they never had a word with him and inquired about his health. Even Lucas didn't know it'.
'Strange.... Who is Lucas?' Stefan paused in his thoughts abruptly, his head felt a sharp pain when he tried to remember him.
''Uhhh.....'' Stefan held his throbbing head and bent down.
'Huh! Host what happened to you!', Heli realized something was wrong with Stefan and called out anxiously.
''Ahhh!'', he shouted in pain, which quickly attracted Aouli and Arwen's attention.
''Brother, what happened to you?'', Aouli asked in a panic, and quickly tried to help Stefan, but couldn't help him due to his small stature.
...
At this moment, Stefan could not hear anything and his consciousness was getting tormented in pain.
He could see himself talking to a vague silhouette, feeling amused and happy.
Suddenly the perspective changed and he saw himself dead. It looked like it was his face, but someone else was trying to enter his body forcefully. It was all blurry, no matter how he tried to concentrate, he couldn't see who was trying to possess his body. There was also that shadow that was somehow moving closer to him, which gave him a dangerous feeling.
...
''NO! DON'T COME CLOSE TO ME!!!!!!!'', he woke up with a start, but, soon realized that he was lying on the ground and was surrounded by a group of people. Some worrying for him and some looking over in curiosity.
''Brother! You are awake!'', Aouli was looking at him with tearful eyes, his eyes were puffed red, indicating that he has been crying for a while.
Stefan looked at Arwen and asked, ''How long has it been since l passed out?''
''It's been one hour already'', Arwen said and asked hesitantly, ''What happened to you? Why did you pass out suddenly?''
'One hour! It's been an hour since l passed out. But, obviously, it wasn't that long in my dream', Stefan thought.
''SOB..sob...sob...'', he heard someone crying and looked up to see that it was Aouli. He quickly took him in his arms and tried to comfort him, ''It's okay....It's okay, my cute little brother. See! Brother is fine now. Brother was just too tired, and fell asleep while standing'', he said and tried to cheer Aouli up.
''Really?'', he said and looked at Stefan with puffy eyes.
''Yes! You see, Brother woke up, and now we will be going home soon!'',
''We are really going home?'' Aouli said excitedly and quickly forgot the previous depressed state.
''Hm'', said Stefan, wiping Aouli's tears from his cheeks.
He got from the ground and realized that, at some point in time, the crowd gathered here has dispersed and only Arwen was there waiting for him.
He said goodbye to Arwen, ''l will be going home if there is nothing else, Brother Arwen''.
''Sure! l will contact you if there is any news about this little one and, don't forget, that you promised me you will give my child a beautiful name!'', he said playfully.
''Of course, I won't forget it, Brother Arwen!'', he laughed and strode out of the place carrying Aouli in his arms.
...
When Stefan came out, he realized that everything is back to normal and everyone has opened their shop again. He decided to purchase items for daily use as they had a new member in their two-person family.
Aouli was amazed, seeing the bustling crowd and the items that were displayed in the stalls. He was so excited that his eyes were shining brightly, and his little head was moving here and there. He was drooling looking at the food stalls selling delicious food.
'Hm? What is that here for?' Stefan thought, looking at the tower, almost reaching the height of a thirteen-floor building. He moved his eyes away, after observing it for some time, and, finding nothing interesting in it.
Anyway, he arrived in this new world today only, and he has plenty of time to explore this town. First, he needed to purchase some things for his little brother. He felt very delightful thinking of taking care of his little brother.
But, 'Why does it feel he is forgetting something?'
........
.....He remembered!! 'He is broke now!'
'Heli, do you have money in your system backpack?', he asked hesitantly after some time.
'Host, you got five gold coins in your Newbie Package, but, l thought, it was not worth telling you, so l threw it into the system backpack', Heli replied, feeling guilty.
Heli really thought that five gold coins were not worth mentioning. It was so pitiful that he did not even pay much attention to it and threw it into the backpack casually.
