章節 58: Discovering a new element
Before Hermann could open his eyes he already received a message from the world will.
<Dear new inhabitant of this world>
As I have said before this world doesn't have magic and because of that the strength of humanity is much lower compared to where you came from. Because of that the boost you would receive at the age of ten has been canceled in this world but not lost. In exchange I decided to invest your favor in something you will most likely come to enjoy. Have fun!
Annoyed, Hermann began to grid his teeth. [How can she do this without my consent?! Why?]
Contrary to him the system didn't seem to be surprised about the situation.
<What did you expect? Letting a ten year old run around with more power than even the strongest people on this planet would be truly ridiculous. But it says that you at least got some compensation. At least the world will was more or less fair.>
Still displeased Hermann began to open his eyes, wanting to know about the situation on the outside. When he tried to raise his head he noticed that he was too weak to even lift his head for a long period of time. With great difficulty he tried to look around and call out to someone but all that came out of his dry throat was an unidentifiable grunt.
From somewhere outside the room he heard the sound of something crashing followed by the sounds of hurried footsteps. Shortly after, somewhere behind him the sound of a door opening was heard and the footsteps came closer. Before he could even attempt to turn his his head around he was enveloped in a crushing hug while a young, dark skinned, long black-haired woman was sobbing above his head, slowly wetting his hair and the shirt he wore. Even if he had wanted to free himself he wouldn't have the strength to do it. Then the beautiful women between her sobbing cries began to talk to him in a shaky voice.
"I'm so glad you are alive my dear son. I don't know what I would have done should you have died." Then she began to laugh though the tears still steamed down cheeks, dropping on her old and faded dress where still beautiful light yellow patterns were visible. "Just wait 'till the rest of the family hears about this. I'm sure that all will be very excited". After that she carefully placed his head back into the pillow behind his head and once more covered him with a woolen blanket before carefully siling beside him, holding his hand while caressing the back of it lovingly with her thumb. Her tears had now dried and only a radiant smile remained like a meadow in spring after a night of rain which made her look even more beautiful.
At this moment after encountering this unexpected scenario he felt deep within himself a slight change in the fog which still covered his emotions. As he closer his eyes to focus better he tried to mentally charge at this wall of apathy which always stopped him from truly feeling with others, automatically forced into a role of an observer, silently watching the joy and pain of others without the ability to understand them. Because of that he wanted nothing more that finally be like the others.
So as he charged and expected resistance like always he simply fazed through it. Confused he looked around until his system announced what he had achieved.
<Congratulations! You have unlocked the emotion of surprise! Are you surprised?>
[Yes?]
Now that Hermann had done everything he had wanted to do he noticed just how weak, tired and malnourished his body truly was. Even his passive ability would need a long time to fix everything. Because of that he decided to go to sleep which he hadn't done in a few years to allow his body to be repaired. The beautiful woman stayed at his side for a few minutes until some more clattering from outside the room caused the woman to hurry back outside. Not long after, just before Hermann fully drifted to sleep, he could hear the young woman shouting at a certain Theodore that shouldn't play with pots or knifes and go back to playing with the wooden toys on the floor or play outside.

Beggar_Genesis Hello there Ladies and Gentleman!
Sadly this chapter is a bit shorter than normal but I think that the length of the one I posted previously should make up for it but I just thought that writing more in this chapter would have ruined the atmosphere.
