Adam wondered if he should go and ent without telling Taygak. He recalled how stern the girl was, being the oldest of the children she was their de facto leader, and held a strong sense of justibsp;

  ‘It was difficult to have her speak to me, I ’t just betray her…’ Adam sighed.

  He went to find the children, who were where they always were in the m, in the courtyard pying with each other.

  Adam walked up to Taygak, who noticed him approach, and quickly marched her way to him.

  “Adam, e,” she said, reag up to grab his hand.

  Adam stared down at the girl, letting her lead him away. ‘This is new.’

  Taygak led him to the other children, where she poiak. “Raygak, bad,” she said.

  “What?”

  “Raygak, bad,” she repeated, looking up at the Half Elf with a disapproving look.

  “Raygak is bad?”

  “Bad bak.” She firmed with a nod of her head.

  “Nak replied, staring up at them both in surprise. “I am good.”

  “Raygak no help dishes,” Taygak said.

  Raygak frowned, g his fists together. He looked away, as though ign the accusation.

  Adam stared at the pair of them, blinking. ‘What the hell is going on?’

  “Bad Raygak!” Taygak decred.

  The other children had stopped with their pying and were watg the situatiak turned redder, gritting his teeth.

  Adam cleared his throat, quickly interrupting so that the situation dide. “Raygak, Taygak, e with me,” he said, motioning with his head as he stepped aside.

  Taygak followed, but Raygak stayed still for a moment. He he other children staring at him, so he quickly followed Adam as they stepped aside.

  “You guys tinue pying,” Adam said, looking to the twins and Katool, raising his brows expetly.

  They did as he asked, returning back to pying with one another.

  “Now, tell me what happened,” Adam said, looking to Taygak.

  Taygak sighed, looking up at Adam disappointedly.

  ‘What did I do?’ Adam wondered.

  “Raygak no help dishes,” she said, shaking her head up at Adam, crossing her arms.

  “So, you didn’t help with washing the dishes?” Adam asked, looking tak.

  Raygak looked away, ign Adam, pretending as though he couldn’t hear.

  “That’s not like the nid intelligent Raygak I know,” Adam said, dropping down to a knee. “Raygak certainly isn’t ign me when I’m speaking with him.”

  “I did not want to wash the dishes,” he said.

  “Why not?”

  “It is b.”

  “That’s true,” Adam said, shrugging his shoulders. “Who washed your dishes?”

  “Father.”

  “Uhuh,” Adam said, nodding his head. “Does he feed you too?”

  “Nak said. “I feed myself. I am a big boy.”

  “Right, you are a big boy, and big boys wash their own dishes,” Adam said, staring at the boy.

  “I do not like it.”

  “I know, but it’s what we have to dht? It’s our responsibility.”

  Raygak frowned.

  “Look, sometimes we have to do things we don’t like,” Adam said. “That includes eating etables.” Adam turo face Taygak, raising his brows.

  Taygak’s brows raised up in surprise. She hadn’t expected Adam to flip the script onto her. “No…”

  “Taygak, you are older than Raygak. If you do yetables, how you expect Raygak to be a good boy if you don’t be a good girl?”

  Taygak furrowed her brows angrily at Adam. “Taygak good.”

  “Aunt Citool spent a long time cookierday,” Adam said. “She made that food for you to eat, so you o eat it. And Raygak, you’re a big boy now, so you o help your father wash dishes too, even if you don’t like it.”

  Taygak stood ak, half hugging him, patting his back gently. “Adam bad. No listen.”

  Adam shook his head. “The Raygak and Taygak I know were a good boy and good girl. I’m going to go and ent my axe, and I hope that when I return, I’ll see my good boy and good girl, okay? Otherwise, I’ll have to let other people py with that magical axe, like Katool who has been good, and Damokan and Kalokan, who are always very oo. I don’t have to hear about them being good or bad. Is it because Jaygak’s always a troublemaker?”

  “Jaygak good,” Taygak said, angrily. She waved her fist at Adam and then pulled Raygak away.

  ‘Damn,’ Adam thought. ‘I should have pcated them. It was so hard to get Taygak on my side.’

  The baby ushed up towards the sky as the dusk sun’s rays fell across his body. He stared up at the sky, bored out of his mind. The cult members ted as they allowed the baby to bask in the falling sun.

  There came screaming from the distance as heavily armoured Soldiers came across the small vilge, ravaging through it. The baby sighed, w if today was going to be the day it died. As a bde fell across him, it missed him by nearly an inbsp;

  The baby looked west, smiling.

  As the Soldier missed, the Priest nearby grabbed at them, their hand bck. The soldier screamed as their skin fked and he fell, dead.

  Adam panted as he stared at the axe.

  He waited.

  And waited.

  “Where’s the firmation prompt?” he whispered to himself, staring at the axe, fused.

  “Are you finished?” the Iyrman nearby asked.

  “No?” Adam replied, unsure. “I should be finished, but…”

  “Aren’t you making a great entment?”

  “Yes?”

  “Did you expeake it in three days?” the Iyrman asked, staring down at Adam.

  Adam remained silent for a long while. “Right,” he said, eventually. ‘It makes sehat it’d take much lohan this to create a det entment.’

  He was guided back to the estate.

  ‘Did he really think he could make a great entment in three days?’ the Iyrman thought. ‘I was warned he was… iing.’

  Adam eventually returned back to the estate, seeing them all ready and eager to eat. He gowards Raygak and Taygak, who were avoiding his gaze.

  “How did your enting go?” Sonarot asked, him some mixed vegetables. She pced a hand on his forehead, cheg his temperature.

  “Well,” Adam replied. “I didn’t realise that I’d need more than three days.”

  Sonarot stared at him, and he could feel the gaze of the other Iyrmen.

  “It would be surprising if even you could create such a powerful on so quickly,” Sonarot said.

  “How long does it normally take to make great entments?” Adam asked.

  “A simple great entment? If you are one of the greatest enters, a month? If it is beyond a simple great entment, three? Typically it takes twice as long.”

  “So I hat many natural 20’s, huh?” Adam said, rubbing his head. “Well, that sucks.”

  [No.]

  Adam raised his brows. ‘What?’

  [You have fihe inal enting process. Now you must tio expend Mana in order to finish the entment, but there is no more focus required.]

  Adam smiled. “Apparently, it doesn’t matter if I feel lucky or not from now on.”

  Sonarot had he way he had stopped. It was as though someone had spoken to him in his mind. Sonarot wondered if perhaps that was the secret to Adam. She pat his head and brought it to her chest, proteg him from the gres of the other Iyrmen, who had noted what she had noted.

  Adam didn’t notice their gazes on him, but he did notice that Taygak was slowly chewing on the vegetable she did not like, her face almost angry as she ate.

  He smiled.

  He spent the week expending his Mana into the axe, but otherwise required ra enting on his part. He didn’t o focus on the bde as his Mana was sucked out of his hand and into the on.

  It was halfway through the month when it happened.

  [Would you like to spend XP to empower the on?]

  Adam shook his head as he quickly stood, causing the Iyrman nearby to gnce his way.

  ‘Yeah. What’s the maximum for this on?’

  [1000.]

  ‘1000 it is then.’
