Chapter 9 - 09 (1/2)
Finished admiring the beauty of this place, Shin walked into the cave while inspecting it from left to right to be sure that there is no problem or danger.
Shin arrived towards the small pond fed by the waterfall and then crouched down in front of it.
Crouching in front of the pond, Shin leaned forward and saw his silhouette through his reflection.
”Always the same face” He was not surprised, he had seen it before at the lake.
But he was always reassured to see that he still looked the same, if his appearance had changed it would have been hard to get used to it.
He would no longer feel like himself. That was the thing he often didn't understand in the novels, why people always wanted to change their appearance, but Shin knew that he had been spoiled by nature in his previous world so that's why he didn't understand, he already had a heavenly beauty long before he died.
He then took some water in his joined hands and sprayed it on his face to refresh his head before going to rest.
”It's really good, not too cold and not too hot.”
He also took the water in his hands to drink.
”It's the best water I've ever drunk!” He widened his eyes when he tasted this water, it was super good!
Even while drinking a lot of water, Shin didn't feel heavy or bloated like with normal water. In addition, the water gave a sweet aftertaste that his palate did not fail to appreciate, the water gently glided through his body giving him a relaxing and pleasant flow.
Shin hydrated himself until he couldn't anymore but when he finished, he noticed a mark on his forehead.
He pulled his hair apart to get a better look at the mark on his forehead.
By spreading his hair apart he was able to see the mark in more detail.
It was a green Phoenix with the wings pointing upwards.

”System, what's that symbol on my forehead?” Shin asked because he really had no idea.
This symbol on your forehead represents your divinity and your identity as the God of Life, for now it can be considered a simple tattoo with some functionality. When you have formed your divinity, it will welcome it and can materialize into a jewel of the same shape and color].
”I see” Shin didn't complain because the symbol wasn't ugly and he thought it suited him rather well, it added a mysterious, celestial side to him.
”And what are those extra features that you mentioned?” He was curious about them, maybe it would be useful.
[Actually, it's more of a feature, your brand will alert you when someone with your lineage or your blessing is in danger].
”It's really helpful.”
He was telling the truth because thanks to this function, he will be able to be warned if his future children or his family is in danger.
”If I have a wife, will I also be warned” He wondered because the system said for those who have his blessing and his golden lineage to have his lineage, you have to be his child.
[Yes you will be after you make love].
”Ok” Shin didn't say any more because even though he was handsome and over 18, he was still a vɨrġɨn.
In less, he will save himself for his wife and that's beautiful.
”On the other hand, what do you mean by blessing? Isn't it reserved for God?” In spite of his race, he had understood that he was not yet a God, either because he was not a deity or because he did not have the power to be one.
When I say blessing, you will bless someone with increased vitality, an affinity with nature and animals gaining an aura similar to yours but much less powerful and a few other little things that are not noticeable. As for the fact that it's reserved for God, well you can still do it because the blessing doesn't need divinity, it just gives a small amount of Life energy to the blessed person].
”Okay, I note” If he ever found someone who deserved it then why not?
Finished with his questions, Shin got up from his crouching position in front of the lake and walked towards the only tree in the cave.
”I'll do my training tomorrow, so for now, I need to rest.”
He really needed to rest, his brain and mind was overeating and he felt like he was going to implode if he didn't rest.
Mental rest only because he was physically well, an insolent health for someone who had just been reborn.
”How am I going to sleep?”
He didn't have a bed or sleeping bag to sleep in, there was only grass.
The place under the tree was the best because it gave him shade because despite the fact that he was in a cave, with the crystals illuminating the cave you could think you were outside.
Thinking about wanting a bed, a surprising thing happened.
