Heikko could barely breathe and being in his poor physical condition there was no way that he could resist to Ivenka"s embrace, she was a Black Iron Perfect Order warrior and not an ordinary female human.

Heikko had a superficial understanding of what magic was, the events that would be treated as fantasy in his world, in this world some of these are real, and one of the most outstanding was the existence of people with physical abilities beyond what is humanly possible.

Ivenka was one of those belonging to this human elite, it was a shame that the previous he, did not pay much attention to this type of information, for what he himself knew was only what the boy had heard from others.

"ke, the strength of a warrior is no joke ... if Ivenka had an iron plate instead of the chest, now I would have a bunch of ribs broken! "

Heikko could only think this while trying to endure before he was unconscious, luckily Ivenka realized what she was doing and proceeded to let him go!

"" haha, I"m sorry Heikko is just that I"m glad to see you"re fine, I do not understand how you came up with something like getting on that guy"s boat! ""

"" cough cough ... I almost suffocate Ivenka ... ""

Ivenka thought to reprimand him but seeing him so fragile and the face of suffering from Heikko she could not do it, with that her face softened a little, even so, she could not avoid speaking to him in a severe way, what he had done was not a joke.

"" Come on I was your wet nurse almost since you were born! You grew up on my chest and now you complain?! Do you think I do not know how you the last month has gone to spy on the girls in the thermal bath? ""

"" ah? I...""

Heikko had to remember after all in just 3 days he only had the most basic information, for him it was like a dream that was difficult to remember and he had to explore his memory to be able to find more accurate information.

in just a couple of seconds, he remembered as if following one of the guys who were his friends of mischief in that day 2 months ago, they had climbed into some wooden barrels to spy on the girls in the thermal bath ...

He could still remember the screams when one of his friends almost fell into the bathroom through one of the windows, as well as the girls warned one of the women who guarded the entrance, and they had to run out of the place before the girls. .h.i.t them with the wooden cubes for water.

"" ... ""

""You see it! and now this, really that you only know how to make us worry, what do you think I would say to your father if a worse accident had occurred in that place? I simply would not have an excuse, sigh...""

Ivenka seemed more tired than usual because during that week she had barely been able to sleep, it could see the fatigue at a glance, Heikko could only take a gulp of saliva that sat badly in his stomach.

Ivenka"s concern was sincere and he could hardly say that he knew her, so far the memories of Young Heikko were something far to him as if it was like a movie, but seeing the middle-aged woman worried about him, he had a feeling he could not explain in words.


"" It"s okay, I"m not to scold you... Heikko you must understand that you"re not a child anymore, you"re responsible for the things you do, in the future you can not depend on your father or me to deal with situations that arise, on the contrary, your father expects you to be someone who can be trusted and depended on when you are needed ... even if you are not strong, he wants the best for you ... "

Ivenka looked quite affected by Heikko"s latest misdeed and he could only nod and remain silent, when he was on earth he was always a filial child.

the only thing that he lacked was leaving his seed to his parents, now he could see that having the life of this young Heikko was not only a benefit but also a responsibility, so he took more seriously the words of Ivenka.

"" Ivenka! ... I apologize for the inconvenience that I have given you, I may not be someone remarkable but from now on I will try to do my best to grow up as a respectable adult ... ""

Ivenka who was still lamenting was surprised by Heikko"s words, she could not help but look at him and scold him for speaking lightly, but seeing the firm eyes on Heikko"s delicate, she face felt a slight chill because the determination and sincerity in his eyes were different from before.

before Heikko would try to escape from the master cla.s.ses and from the scolding of others, he rarely promised to do something like he did now.

"" I hope and so be it, your father would be happy to see you progress in a good direction and do not have to go being a Viking as our ancestors, that is why your father focuses on maintaining the autonomy of our land, outside this island, the situation is tumultuous and chaotic, even though here we have monsters that prey over the peoples, there is no worse enemy for a human than another human. "

at the end of her words, one could clearly see Ivenka"s change of tone, it seemed that her story was not as simple as the before Heikko had perceived it, even so, he did not ask now, because it was not the time for it, the doubts that he had only acc.u.mulated more and more.

Just when the atmosphere seemed to become more and more serious Heikko stomach do not hesitate to retaliate.

GROWwlll

"" ... ""

Heikko blushed a little for that, for which Ivenka could not help laughing.

""Haha! It seems you need something to eat huh? You should have said it before! If you faint again because of hunger, it would be even worse, and with that body, you will probably disappear if you lose weight! "

"" Ivenka! ""

"" Come on, it"s a joke! ""

Ivenka knew well that Heikko did not like to be told that he was thin, the older boys in the village used to compare him with the girls, it also made him a rogue, trying to prove that he was a man was his goal, even though his actions only they will take as pranks of a boy.

Ivenka no longer followed the game, and down to the first floor of the building, Heikko remembered the place for what followed her.

"" After lunch, you should go to see the master, he is not happy that you skipped his cla.s.ses for a week! ""

""true...""

Heikko remember Master Jordian, he could only feel a little uncomfortable about it, as a normal modern person thought that anything he could learn from someone from the middle ages would be nonsense, but by remembering, he could remember that in reality, the themes of The master"s teaching were more than interesting!

Not only that, but his father, being a seasoned warrior, he did not underestimate the scholars and had a large collection of writings that existed in the 39 ancient Goðar, one could even say that he had spent half of his fortune and half of his favors in obtaining the copies of the Frozland cla.s.sics.

"" It seems that my father is not as simple as it seems ... that collection besides inviting a master ... ""

Heikko"s murmur was barely audible even though in front of the hearing ability of a warrior Black Iron Perfect order was a children"s game listening to him.

Ivenka while the kitchen door would be answered with some air of superiority.

"" So far do you realize Heikko?, Obviously your father is someone amazing! Not for nothing is a Grand Chief and one of the main goðar of the administration, but he is also the patriarch of the Drekkison family!, even when the same name attracts him trouble with The Bright Church House this is still one of the top 10 families in Frozland! ""

Ivenka seemed even more knowledgeable of the glory of Heikko"s family than himself, he could only sigh for the little interest that the previous Heikko had for the things that surrounded him.

"Ugh, after all, I was a darling kid, no? I guess it did not matter what the new generations were. They do not pay much attention to the glory of their ancestors when it"s necessary."

Heikko could only shake his head internally while the scent of freshly prepared food arrived at his noise.

It was a food that despite the scarce transport conditions could be considered quite rich in variety.

a few slices of meat, steamed fresh vegetables, a drink that gave off a milky smell plus fresh rye bread with goat b.u.t.ter and cheese.

he could only salivate when he saw the food that would soon be ready and in front of him, his stomach was even noisier.

just when Ivenka served him and he began to eat, she stopped him and she looked at him in a bad way.

"" Heikko do not forget to thank for the food! ""

"" ah? thank? ... ah! I"m sorry !, thank you very much for your effort Ivenka, with how well you prepared it I almost forgot to thank you for it ... "

"" ... ""

Ivenka gave him a strange look, then pointed to the top of the door, there was a crucifix but unlike the Christian cross, it was somewhat different.

This had the horizontal line right in the middle and the proportions were the same, not only that but it had a symbol of an 8 on it.

Heikko had doubts about what it meant, but thinking it was too obvious of a question and could raise suspicions so he does not ask about it.

So he gave thanks in silence and Ivenka nodded a little to go back to the kitchen.

Heikko had to admit that he had underestimated the medieval kitchen or at least his hunger was such that the food was 200% more delicious, although the reality was that someone accustomed to the type of modern cuisine appreciated more the traditional food and someone who only eats traditional food, you want to eat fast food, it is a difficult phenomenon to explain.

Without engaging more in it, Heikko ate slowly so as not to get sick from eating too much, after enjoying the food and emptying the plate he got up from the table, Ivenka seemed to not take his eyes off at least until his father returned.

"" Do you look a bit bored Heikko, what do you think about going to take a bath before going to study with the master? besides it would be pretty good if I fix your hair, while you were sleeping I could not clean your hair properly ""

"" ... well, it would not be bad ... ""

with some doubt Heikko followed Ivenka to the personal bathroom that had the house in the underground part, the house was quite large by local standards, although it was said that it was relatively small to be one of the 10 large families in the island of Frozland, there was nothing to do because after all his family was not one that would have always been the most important.

the bathroom had separate parts for men and women and also had a special one for the lord of the territory, where his father used to spend the time to relax after training so everyone else was forbidden to use it.

when entering the bathroom room he was surprised a bit because the place was quite pleasant even had a type of plant that he did not know that illuminated the place.

"" It"s really a magical place ... I should not use my common sense to judge this world ""

Heikko reprimands his feeling of superiority to come from a technological world again because magic was a factor that made the world totally unknown to him.

he took half an hour to bathe and rinse himself because his hair was longer than when he was on Earth, being an employee of a reputable company used to cut his hair in a formal manner and with a short haircut that was neat at first glance.

now his hair reached at least to the shoulders so it was difficult to deal with for Heikko.

"" If I cut it would be too drastic, in addition to what I see is a Nordic culture or something similar, as I remember in the movies the hair was important not? ""

Heikko was not someone who had time to pay attention to many things, the modern era was bombarded with information so he had a general idea of other cultures, but he was not an expert in the field.

after exit Ivenka was already waiting for him.

"" I"ll take care of your hair, Heikko ""

""all right...""

somewhat bewildered Heikko accepted the help of Ivenka who already had a brush of bristles of some animal in hand and some laces to tie it in the other hand, he could only accept and hope that Ivenka had an idea of what she was doing.
