149 Chapter 4. Hermit, She bears New Gifts (1/2)

When Demos wake up in the morning, Allen and Elena were already up. They are clinging on both of his sides staring at his face fixedly. This has become a habit since they first meet; they really liked clinging to him.

”Good Morning,” he said

”... Morning.”

”...Mor… ning…”

'!! They greeted me!! Allen and Elena spoke! What adorable voices!'

Demos thought before he hugged them.

How there morning prayer to the goddess. Demos decides to go into the forest to pick some herd. The two twins follow him closely.

The two usually hunt for meat but rarely ever bring back herbs. He started to teach them what kind of herbs they should pick, what kind they shouldn't as well as what they are used for. And how to gather them if they get a whole bunch.

Their gathering in the forest continued until noon

Demos sung them praise making the two laugh a lot 'So cute~' he thought.

When they returned home, he saw a light glow from his shine. Demos rushed to go pray for whatever message the goddess was trying to send.

The twins trotted over and copied his actions.

When Demos looked up, he saw the statue of the goddess changed it was no longer wooden, but stone and the figures were more visible and real. The Statue was sitting on a throne with a sweet smile on her face. She looked slightly different from her appearance when he first saw her. He then saw a thin stick like an object before him.

Demos picked up the stick and prayed once more.

”Two brats and an old man,” a voice said with cockiness, which brought the twins attention first before Demos looked up.

It was a large bald man with a group of other. Demos felt malicious intent from them, as he suddenly understood the message from the goddess.

”This place is nice; it looked like we found a new home. Come on boys. Kill the old man but leave the children alive they will fetch a nice price.” He said.

Demos picked up the thin smoothly thin shaped stick.

Smack

Before they could move the gentlemen, who yelled face was planted in the ground instantly. His companions stood there in shock as they watch the old man teleport and knock out their boss.

The pressure the old man was giving them was terrifying. Some P*** their pants before they dragged their boss away screaming. Once they saw that Demos when back to the statue o pray.

Demos went back down to pray.

[Be careful]

He heard the whisper of the goddess.
