Saito continued to live a normal life for a couple of days before trouble eventually found him once again. He had made a cottage for himself with the help of Iris, he simply needed to provide the materials and leave it to Iris to change it to make a cottage with two rooms, some place for the wolves to rest as well.It has been a week since he had settled down in the middle of the forest. It was a quiet day for him until he heard the shout of a woman, "Please save us."
He heard the sound of a Ferocious Wild Boar as well; it didn"t take him long to figure out what was going on. He loudly shouted out, "Joergen, come out!"
Joergen rushed out of its residence and Saito jumped over it, started to rush towards the location from where he heard the scream. It took him a minute to reach that location.
He raised an eyebrow when he saw a young 16-year-old woman trying to protect a 13-year-old boy from this wild Boar. The Boar rushed at the woman and the boy at its full speed, the woman covered her brother to protect him.
"Protecting your brother by shielding him with your own body. Admirable!" The young woman was surprised when she heard this voice.

The next thing she knew was when she opened her eyes, she witnessed a huge Fire Blast which enveloped the whole Ferocious Wild Boar, roasting it instantly.
After killing the wild boar, Saito stared at the young woman with a gentle gaze. The woman stared back with caution. She seemed to be worried that Saito would do something bad to them.
"You were protecting your brother, it"s good. But take a good rest now, you must be very tired after running so much." The young woman nodded her head.
She looked into his emerald eyes and said, "I-I am Lyra. And this is my little brother Reus." She could only speak this before she fell down, clearly very tired.
"Iris, what"s their condition? Are they safe?" Saito asked Iris in his mind. He quickly received a response from Iris.
[They aren"t in any particular danger. Just that their magic seems to have exhausted and they need rest to recover it naturally. And master, they seem to be in tune with Nature magic.]
Saito nodded his head as he noticed their long-pointed ears. The girl had an impressive pair of b.r.e.a.s.t.s for her age, Saito was fascinated by her thin yet voluptuous body. He desired to touch her all over but he controlled him by thinking "No, this wouldn"t be appropriate. We are strangers and she is still very young."
He picked her up, careful in taking control over his perverted desires. He also picked up the kid named Reus and brought them together to his house.
Returning back to his cottage, he placed them both on the bed of the other room. Saito returned back to his own room thinking "Looks like I would need to get involved with the people of this world. I can"t live like this forever; the trouble will be bound to find me."
He further thought "All the demon kings and the heroes must have their own influence. Or maybe I should just stay here and start building my reputation. After talking to them, I should be able to plan what to do next. I need to gain more information about this world, and Joergen doesn"t seem to know that much."
He waited for them to wake up from their sleep. Now that they had recovered, Saito actually felt a strange pressure from the 13-year-old Reus. Saito pats his head and orders Iris "a.n.a.lyze this child"s mana reserve."
[Commencing a.n.a.lysis. The mana reserves of the child named Reus are just a tiny bit lower than that of masters.] Saito"s eyes widened when he heard Iris "What did you say!? His mana reserves are as much as mine? This is just crazy, a 13-year-old kid has double the amount of mana as compared to a normal hero!"
[The amount of mana inside his body is so much that his body would not be able to hold for more than 3 more days.] Saito"s face was back to normal "Only 3 more days huh… So, he has such a huge amount of magic that his body cannot contain it and is now breaking down."
He continues to pat Reus and looks at Lyra, "Your brother seems to have a lot of magic for his age."
The horror on Lyra"s face told him most of the story that he was going to hear. He further continued in order to explain her the gravity of this matter, "If this goes on like this, your brother won"t live past three days. Tell me what happened, I may be able to help you."
He mentally spoke "I will be counting on your Iris. Try and find the solutions to save the kid." Iris replied back almost immediately [Yes master!]
Lyra was really nervous and horrified when she heard that her brother Reus won"t survive more than 3 days. She stared into Saito"s emerald colored eyes and felt that she could trust him.
She started to talk about the condition, "I am the princess of the Elven Kingdom and the first daughter of the Queen of the Elves. My little brother is the young prince of the Elven Kingdom."
"Once in a thousand years, when someone among the Royal Family awakens their magic, they awaken all their dormant magic lying within them at the same time. It allows them to quickly learn and master any nature magic taught in the kingdom but if the body of the user is not strong enough to hold the magic in his body, he will die."
"My brother"s condition is very common within the Elf Race. My mother has tried hard to save him by giving him all kinds of strengthening potions but they do not appear to help at all."
She started to sob uncontrollably, Saito pats her head and whispers, "Continue please…" Lyra nods her head and continues speaking, "My mother has already given up on my brother now. She even asked everyone to stay away from him because Reus would explode due to the extra magic inside of himself."
Saito stared at Reus once again and had a grim expression, "So, basically, you ran away with your brother to find a solution towards this extra magic problem. You have no particular destination in mind and happened to encounter some beasts who exhausted your magic as well."
Lyra continued to make sobbing sounds and nodded her head, "Yes." Saito continued to stare at her and asked her with a curious face, "If he has so much magic, can"t he just use lots of magic every day? Maybe that would help?"
Lyra shook her head, "No, my mother thought the same. She tried to make Reus use as much magic as he could muster in one go but it didn"t help at all. Instead, she felt that his magic was slowly rising."
Saito internally frowned when he heard her "This is strange. Why would his magic continue to rise so much? Iris, did you find any solutions yet?"
[No master. For now, there is no particular solution for this.] Iris sounded a bit dejected that it couldn"t find the solution.
Saito though tried to cheer her up, "Now, come outside and eat something. Crying and being dejected won"t solve this problem, I will think of something, don"t worry. This case isn"t entirely hopeless, just give me some time, all right?"
Saito went out of the room after he finished speaking. Lyra seemed to have cheered up a little, she wanted to believe in Saito that there was some hope of treating Reus.
Reus though had lost all hope at this point, he tear-fully glanced at Lyra and said, "Leave me big sis. I will explode in 3 days as that big brother said. I don"t want to hurt you. Go far away from me."
Outside the room, Saito was listening to their conversation. He wasn"t a very kind man but even his heart bled a little at the words of Reus.
