Well, it has been a few days since I woke up my mana senses, though I have yet to try and get an element to awaken within my blood as I have been rather lazy. Today is a special day too; as mother ties me to her back in a comfortable swaddle, Yehai and Nihlis on her front. Preparing us to walk around the town today, which is something she finds as a grand thing. Well, here on her back and looking over her shoulder, I should be able to see everything nicely… also I get to be cushioned by mother"s fluffy hair; her silver hair a bit lighter than mine. I like the way she smells, as it calms me down and allows me to feel like I am getting some form of mental rest.

Indra checks on her little boy on her back, to make sure that I am not squished, a smile spreading on her face as she gives father a kiss on the cheek and lets him gives his sons a small pets on their heads.

"Alright dearest husband, I am going to go pick up some things to cook with tonight; I"ve been craving something savory, like meat and cheese. Maybe a cheesy stew tonight?" Indra stares at her husband Zekiel with a small smile, knowing what he likes; "I"ll also pick up some peaches for dessert." She kisses his cheek once more… I give a small wah in defiance, we"re supposed to be going out, and not being lovey. Mother gives a chuckle and looks behind her; "Alright, we"ll get out of here. Bye my love, we"ll be back."

Father gives a chuckle as we leave, and the air is nice and cold out here… I can"t help but enjoy the air that is in this world as it is much cleaner than the air back on Earth. Though as we reached the front gate of the manor, Grandfather was there… looked like he was coming with us, as he always went out once a month to gauge the feelings of his people. He was a good leader that way, and was the main reason why his people enjoyed him being on the throne. Still can"t get over how frichen tall this man was though; definitely could not miss him in a crowd.

Seeing as how he is following, I guess mom doesn"t need to worry about anyone coming around to cause trouble for her. Though I suspect that many of her friends would be coming up to poke at the babies again, like they have every weekend for the past few months. There might also be a few other people around the town that would be more than willing to give her discounts for the ingredients, and poke us babies. I won"t be able to do too much today, since I will be poked and proded all day… help me.

It took the two of them around ten minutes to reach the center of town where the market place was; and there was quite a few people selling off some food goods here. The smell of fresh bread and meat was hanging in the air; and salted or dried fish was making my stomach growl. There were roasted meat stalls all around me, and I swear I wanted to grow old enough to eat solid foods already! I had fangs all in my mouth now, and they required meat to eat… also my poor mother, still breast feeding a baby who had sharp fangs for every single tooth.


My grandfather would actually stop and grab some of the roasted meat; looks like it was dripping with some good smelling sauce, made me just want to take a big bite from it. Though the hunk of meat he got was definitely ma.s.sive, so I could probably have a few bites myself from it, but one bite was nearly enough for gramps to finish a third of the meat… the juices falling into his bear and onto the ground; sizzling with his bite…

On the other hand, mother was going around the market while everyone kind of fussed around her carrying babies, buying plenty of wrapped beef, mutton, and veggies to place in her hand basket. She also buys some dried fish, milk, three loaves of bread, and a few peaches. This is quite a lot of food; and I hope that they will let me have a taste of it… as I know that around six months is the time that babies can begin having some other foods.

While everyone is getting all excited over seeing Yehai and Nihlis, I just look around from my vantage point and get to see how the stalls are all set up around here… there are even some jewelry stalls and a few other misc things around. I wonder when I"ll be able to come around here on my own and be able to enjoy some of the roasted meat… G.o.d all these smells are getting to my enhanced nose; leaning my face into my mom"s hair to try and drown them out. This does cause her to look back at me with a smile… her eyes sparkling with happiness over this action… causing me to feel shy and hide beneath her hair more.

"Indra dear, are these your children? My, I knew you were holding many in you, but for you to hold three all together… that is more than surprising." An old woman says while wrapping up some more ingredients for tonight"s dinner, "They look healthy, that"s good… they should be around six months now, you going to try and get them to eat some regular food?"

"I"m going to slowly work them onto other foods; going to mash up some veggies and fruit tonight, and also see if they like the stew…" Mom reaches back and opens my mouth for the lady to see my fangs; "Little Zeri here got his dad"s teeth, so he"s starting to get rough with breast feeding. Yehai has some extra fangs as well, but the front are flat for him and Nihlis… who only has the normal teeth." I knew I was getting a bit rough with her, my teeth having grown in quite early.

"Hoo, yeah, that boy has many sharp teeth on him. Anyone would be impressed with you still breast feeding that monster mouth; those he has some good eyes on him." The old lady gives a light cackle, "The older brother indeed has a good feeling about him, a good feeling indeed." She compliments me, which has me seeking refuge in my mom"s hair, as I am not used to it and I feel shy. Both the lady"s giggle at this… Yehai and Nihlis taking their naps right now.

During all of this, Grandfather is busy talking around the people around the market to try and get a feel for the voices of the people. They were telling him how things were going, and from what is going on there aren"t many complaints that stem from him personally… none at all. There were some bandits going around, and some of the crops weren"t growing on time, but other than that just the "usual" wild beasts in the forest. Also seems that a few Goblins have evolved near the town to make some higher tiers… all of these going to the guild boards of course.

Well, none of this actually has anything to do with me for the time being; though if I see a map I may try to gives some helpful hints to the people… like they"ll listen to me. I just lean into mother, and absentmindedly give her shoulder a fangy nibble… mother giggling as she finishes her shopping;

"Are you hungry my little starshine? We"ll be heading home soon, and I"ll make you something to eat, maybe let you chew on something if you want." She rubs my horn gently, and begins to head back to the manor, grandfather following behind… kids following around mom to look at the new babies that show themselves in town, all giggling at how cute we are… ugh I am getting tired of all these people. This actually brings my mind to what my curse is, makes plenty of sense that I would have a harder time with social skills, if all of this social interaction makes me tired.

Later that night, back in the little hut we have been living in for the pa.s.sed six months, mom made a stew with bread and fish. It had plenty of protein, and so many vegetables within the stew; and fruits for dessert, mostly peaches for dad. It was quite nice to be able to eat something not breast milk for the first time in months; and the meat was so tender and delicious. I was in bliss right now, being able to eat some solid food, and enjoy myself. Mom was also happy that I wasn"t picky with the food, she might be weening me off the milk right now.

Yehai was a bit more picky, but he was happy to each as he saw me eating well… maybe not happy, but having a slight sibling rivalry. It was quite cute how he was working to follow my example, just to prove he was as good as me. Nihlis on the other hand, he drank some of the stew, chewed some soft veggies, but didn"t want to eat the meat or bread right now. He was going to be the last to ween from mom.

Guess that I will try to awaken an element when I can, especially since I now have the ability to eat some better tasting foods… that is enough to get me to become demon lord if I can eat well every day. Baalish agreed with me here, something telling me that he was probably feeling a bit better now that I had some meat in me.
