Chapter: 2

Currently I am with my new caregiver his name is Dorian and he is what this world would call a dwarf.

I didn’t really get why a person can naturally be so short but so rigged with muscles. It’s very weird maybe they had these types of people in my past world.

Also since I have just started walking, I did my best puppy dog eyes and asked him if he would be able to pick me up and carry my until I’m able to walk by myself. Since I get tired very easily. He agrees and swings me across his shoulder.

I have no problems with this position since it benefits me now I don’t have to struggle as much.

We are progressing at a fast pace threw the forest, on the way there I see many different animals roaming about, in particular I see a squirrel but the weird thing is that is flying by flapping its wings and flying from branch to branch. I do not think they have these types of squirrels back home in my past world.

I guess you learn new things every day is really true.

Since he has me on his shoulder facing the same way as him I could see a lot of small building all congregated in the same place.

Outside these buildings of various sizes I can see many small men and woman roaming about, some are fixing and repairing items i have never seen before. But as I am studying the various new scenes I see a shift in view and my face plants right in too the dirt path.

[Dorian]” damn boy, my bad I didn’t mean to drop you I was just a bit tired, I carried you for about five miles straight without breaks. It’s hard on an old man’s body.”

When he finishes talking he starts rubbing his back to alleviate the pain.

Then he says kid follow me were going to my house before we go ahead and meet with the council to let them know a human will be living in the village.

While he was saying that I was already walking, towards this big garden in front of the village. There are many children and adults working pulling weeds and various fruits and vegetables out, but what I didn’t know was that Dorian was yelling something very important and when I turned back around all I could hear was.

[Dorian] “Kid you don’t have any clothes on!!!!!”

It was at that moment I knew I fucked up. I turned back around to see if any of the people working and playing had heard him say that, all I could see was woman blushing and turning around.

The out of the blue a child next to his parent says “ mommy why does that boy have a baby carrot hanging from between his legs.

The mother in question quickly covers the child eyes, and my face begins to flush bright red as I walk faster towards Dorian. Before I could even say anything he throws his shirt at me and tell me to just hurry up so we can go.

A few minutes later we arrived at his home, and he tells me to wait in the living room while he goes to get some clothing for me to wear since I am fully naked.

As he hands me the clothes I try them on they fit really well on the count that my arms and legs are not as long as their supposed to be, I guess I’ll just grow into it. In particular my arms barely make it out of the long sleeves.

After some adjustments such as rolling up the sleeves and the pants legs, Dorian sits down on a chair that was next to a big leather sofa but the weird thing is the sofa looked very modern it was all black leather with metal stools underneath it.

……….

After a few hours of talking into the night I started to get tired, my stamina is still not as good as I would want it to be. Well honestly I didn’t think walking and crawling for a day would help me build stamina regular children build up.

I figured out many things over the past couples of hour what would have taken me years to figure out by myself living in the forest by myself.

I am currently deep within the Dwarf country, a very secluded place that produces some of their nations weapons and tools. It learned there are status screens which let you see your current skills and strength level. That’s mostly it when learned what it exactly is tried to pull up my status screen but it only showed me a few skills my name and my current rank.

Right now I am what they call infant class based on my bodies current abilities can show off right now.

Infant class is given to mostly children the ones that are barely one years old. When I found this out I kind of let out a few Boy Scout tears, to know that your body isn’t even pass what a one year old child or new born can even muster can hurt a little boys heart.

But that won’t put me down I know I will have to train and build up my body it’s not like I’m flaunting a six pack when I knew I never even worked out before. I have a little of what a person would call a baby gut right now.

Well ill lose that once I start slowly gaining more stamina. For now why don’t I go to sleep right now today has been very eventful?

Eventually I nod myself to sleep on the sofa before Dorian offers me one of the beds in the room.

[Dorian]” well the young-in must be very tired he could barely walk for a few meters before tiring out.

……….

Ten hours later I wake up to a loud banging sound coming from outside the house, then I notice that there is water leakage on the bed maybe some of the water from my legs dripped of through the night?

I slowly roll myself out of the bed and before I could even touch the floor I slip and face plant right into the wood floors. It hurt but I didn't pass out from the pain maybe my body is getting stronger, I slowly walk towards the sound I have to navigate myself to the right place since it’s my first time in here.

Once I cross the living room I see across the room there is a big metal door locked completely shut, but I can still hear the loud banging coming from inside the metal door. I slowly wobble across the room I still don’t have that much control when walking so I make a lot of heavy squeak noises.

I soon arrive at the door I try to push it open. But it’s very heavy. Then I notice there is a handle right above my head I reach for it and try to turn it towards me a loud click resounds around the room, and the door swings open and a gust of hot air permeates threw out the room.

All I here is “aww fuck who let in all the cool air, the weapons going to cool off at this rate.”

I haven’t noticed yet but my arms and legs are evaporating from the heat and soon I feel a slight shift in height and I notice there isn’t any water on my arms or legs anymore.

Then suddenly a window pops up in front of me

“There are four elements currently in your zone of influence would you like to configure them onto your arms and legs”

I say yes out loud!

Before I could even see what happens my skin is assaulted by the water in the air, the wind, the heat and the metal on the door. It flows onto me and my arms turn a pale silver with hints of red, blue clear blotches.

Then another ding resounds in my head

[Elemental skin]: the skill has been acquired

[Elemental skin]: (the user is able to control the elements residing inside his arms to a certain extinct currently you are only able to use the lesser qualities of the four elements you absorbed.

• Lesser heat

• Water drops

• Steel liquid flakes

• Wind breeze )

As I am reading the box in front of me I start to feel a bit dizzy, then I notice the sudden heat being emitted in front of me. I start breathing hard to the point where I am starting to black out then I hit the ground and the darkness overcomes me.

A few hours later I wake up on the bed again, it think to myself I wonder what happened I remember reading a window box and I just…. Why is it so blurry my memories feel kind of weird. Wait, How long have I been out? Right as I think this in comes Dorian.

[Dorian]” ah , kid you just woke up I thought you was dead for a second when you open the door to my forge.

What’s a forge?

[Dorian]” a forge is place where people build tools, weapons and make new inventions using various materials.”

Oh I see,

Well can I see you work I would very much like to see how you a person would work in a forge?

[Dorian]” of course you can lad but you will have get use to the heat you passed out before you even took a look at what I was doing.” You also kind of destroyed one of the weapons I was currently working on. Also since its going to take you awhile to get use the heat I might as well train ya before you even go into the forge.

I reply with a yes because right now I am very interested to see how people make weapons.

[Dorian]” youngin my first task for you is to sit by the door while I work on some tools and gradually you move towards where I am working.

………….

Fast forward a couple of days as of right now I can stand being in the forge for about two hours before my body heats up and I get a bit dizzy. But right now im also able to partially roam about in this heat box.

………

A few more weeks passed by and I am able to go up towards the actual forge and look closely at when Dorian is reconstructing and melting ore.

Then it came the day I made my first equipment, it was one of the regular days in the forge and Dorian had got a request to make a versatile weapon out of the fangs and claws of this local feline that was known to have claws that extend two feet from its paws and can retract into back into its paws.

While he was hammering away at the new weapon he finally finished, It was a scythe made with dark steel and the sharpened claws of the feline. It was a very menacing weapon every three centimeters there was a blade extending from the base of the scythe it looked like a birds wing without the feathers.

He called it “last flight”

After he sharpened it some more he put it in a metal case by pushing down on the handle and the pole part of it condense down into one meter form and the blades on the base folded down on each other.

While he was doing this I was messing around with the left over from the order there were many long cat claws and fangs in a corner, but since I couldn’t make any equipment until I learn the basics I wanted to try this new thing out to see if I could make a weapon out of the left overs so I laid down some regular steel and some cat claws and fangs I touched them and said configure into a weapon for me.

A bright light flashed in front of me, Dorian looked over to see what commotion was and before he could say anything to me the various materials floated together and made steel gauntlets and boots with that travel up towards the knee. Then it floated towards me and it phased onto my body and I heard a small click and clunk noise and I could feel my skin change and before I knew it.

Pale grey lines with different color spots on it started to flow continuously on the metal parts and the edges of the fangs.

Then another box pop up in front of me.

“ Would you like to create a name for the new item?” I clicked yes.

And in my mind since this was the name of the creature I named it “ Feline model (1)”

[New armor: Feline Model (1) (panther lily)]

(This suit was made my Rad a curious boy who can configure matter to his will. This partial suit was only made because of the weird mistake of combining these different parts to make a special equipment for Rad.

• Is able to use extend claws in full feline mode.

• Helps the user by giving them perfect balance and the agility of a cat.

• Has good attack power when slicing)
