Ritian wore his white robe before using the outer cloth that Wenren gave him. The contrast of white and red made him look... extremely different. He was presentable and he looked lively.

"Wow..." Ritian sighed. Just like the rest, he wanted to use beautiful clothes and be at his best most of the time. Taking care of himself and feeling good at his own appearance is a healthy mental snack. "Damn, boy. You look rich."

Ritian pose for fifteen minutes in front of the yellowed mirror. When his vanity was finally satiated, he discovered another problem.

'Indeed, I look great from up to my ankles.' He look down and lamented quietly, 'But what about my feet? Do I go prance around the village barefooted?'

Ritian rummage through his spoils of war on the other day. He noticed a pair of sandals. It was made of wood and the straps were a type of hard fabric.

It looks like new.

Ritian remembered the foot of the dead body that they found last week. 'No. That foot was huge. This sandals shouldn't be

    The ceremony lasted for two hours. Ritian personally heard both of the bride and groom's vow. Old Felino began to drink large cups of booze before the fun activities started. He even walk past Ritian and give him an encouraging pat.'Indeed.' Wenren's influence can bend the hardest metal.Wenren sat beside him after giving his blessings. He blinked furiously, holding his head. "The participants needs to go home and change clothes for the hunt.""You should go now. I'll wait for you here." Ritian stood, he intended to join the children and help assist the bride's family in setting up the table."Don't go near Cheel. Something's wrong with him." Wenren ruffled his hair before moving forward. Ritian laughed in his heart. 'You worded it wrong. It should be, 'Nothing's right about him.'"You're good with Via now?" Sari's mother bumped against his shoulder. He look sideways. "Yes. They think Wenren and I were dating.""Wenren is a kind guy. He agreed to act as your man."Ritian won't lie an

    "Have you seen Cheel, Ritian?" Sari's mother asked him when she became idle later that day. Ritian breathe heavily behind her, lagging for a moment before jumping with the heavy load on his back. Sure, old people thought he's a magnificent camel. It was a satisfying job. Ritian snorted. "He's a newly wedded guy. It's strange to ask that. He's spending time with his bride for sure!"The aunt eyed him with weirded expression. "I saw him slip out of their backdoor awhile ago. I expected him to be back by this time. Why is he still not here?"Ritian put his hands up. Totally nonchalant about the groom. The reception venue looks especially good. Since it was approaching afternoon, the reception is expected to end in the evening. The women set out lanterns in every corner. They will light it out once it darkens.A commotion occured not too far from them both. Ritian snap his head towards the noise and saw one of the hunters back with a gloomy face."Papa won a big black pig!" A delighted sc

    With a mentality that 'Wenren might need my help!', Ritian run towards the mountain. He didn't stop when a few men guarding the entrance tried to reason with him. The guys thought that he's making a problem and decided to let go.If Ritian was hurt or get bitten by a snake and die, they will tell the village chief that Ritian was too willful and that his unstable mental state relapsed and tried to attack them.Hence, Ritian, with his scared but determined expression, get inside the forest with ease.His sleeves flapped against the wind as he shouted, "Wenren! Wen!" Ritian won't believe that Cheel can fight with the man. Wenren is an expert. But if the guy accidentally killed Cheel in the process of defending himself, how is he going to explain it with everyone? This can instill a lot of problems.Wenren might needed his help in hiding the body. Cheel went on his rampage this time. That matter is hard to explain without the 'dead and dismembered body'. The unknown man was the owner of

    Ritian closed his eyes firmly. He can feel the air sweep his hair as Wenren sped up. Ritian can't see anything but the endless black. 'That vessel. Where is it?'How come he can't hear anything?"Wen, where's that Vessel?" He didn't move even a centimeter, afraid of surprising Wenren that could lead to their fall. He looked like a stiff puppet between Wenren's arms. 'Like a dead weight.'A sigh went past his ears. The breathless voice said, "Here, Ritian."He opened his mouth in shock. "Wen... I hear him talk to me just now. He..."Wenren tightened his grip on his waist. Although blindfolded, his other senses was magnified. Ritian can percept that the guy slowed down a beat. "Don't mind it.""Do you wish to know me more, Ritian?" The vessel's voice sometimes belongs to a man, then a woman. It became distracting how the sentence started with a male voice then ends up with the sultry tone of a teasing lady. "I know you so well. I can understand you, since you, yourself don't come from t

    Ritian woke up amidst choking and violently shaking. He tried to stand but a paw stopped him from moving. It was one little cat's foot, but the strength almost made him hold his head. "Where am I now?"“You're now safe.” A little girl's voice informed him, “A hundred meters from us are a group of old people intending to capture you.”Ritian gasped. He felt like his problems didn't lessen as the days go by. "What did I do now?""They accuse you of killing Cheel. His body was found clasping a ripped fabric from your inner robe." Wenren emerged from behind. His hand reached for his shoulder but Ritian avoided his touch. "Are you okay now?""Now I know that I will get in trouble once again? I'm delighted. Totally unfazed. Definitely fine. Just peachy." Ritian attempted to stand but his knees trembled. "God, where's the kid who spoke? How come she's here?"The cat waved its tail threateningly. "I am that 'kid.' Sorry for my body's age. I have cultivated for thousands of years, but I slept

    Ritian didn't reach that far when he started to freak out. Katya can talk to him in telepathy, and for the second time he's been branded as a murderer. The world won't just quit making fun of him."I should've... brought all my clothes and my things." He stepped on a hole causing him to flail for a moment and fell face planted on the ground. "Damn. Hurts.""I'm sorry." On the crook of his shoulders, the cat hang on for dear life. She didn't even flinch when they crashed. "If I can cultivate again, I will have enough power to help you."Ritian sat and decided to sleep for the day. His head aches on the back. He was too tired to move. Ritian didn't even eat anything this time, the dryness of his throat felt like sandpaper."It will take a lot of time. Would you like me to guard you while you sleep?" Katya's fur was now in an unrecognizable state. The snow-white fluffy creature had turn into a dirty rag. "We've been running for a long time. I think that guy led them on a different direct

    Ritian helped himself to two bowls of white porridge. The food tastes salty and bleak but he didn't complain as he swallowed without a hint of stopping. Gino watched him from the side while Evo had a revering expression on his face as he glance at him for a few times."Did you like it? How does it taste? Very good?" Gino wave the large spoon in front of the fire. His soaked forehead glistening. "You seem to love it. Should I add more?"Ritian wipe his mouth with his sleeves. He smacked his lips together, lamenting internally at how salty did it taste like. "You're... exceptionally talented in cooking.""You mean he cook like he's making salted fish." Evo smiled faintly. "Don't gloss it over. He needs to take harsh words to learn."Gino's grin faltered. His face closed off and Ritian saw the flash of hurt in his eyes. "Oh... I was just asking."He chuckled. "Don't listen to Evo. What does he know about cooking? It's not like he had tasted the dishes sold at a restaurant. He's no judge.

    Ritian woke up early and prepared breakfast for the three of them. Katya remained asleep on his shoulder as he navigated around the kitchen.Evo walked out of the house then washing his face on a tub they had arranged to save up water from the rain. He returned after a while with coconut milk in his hand.Ritian suddenly had an idea in his mind and mashed the sweet potatoes from last night. He brought the coconut milk into a boil before gently putting the sweet potatoes inside the pot.He mixed it 'til it combined perfectly. He waited for the mixture to become a little sticky before serving it like porridge to the two teens.Ritian ate a bowl for himself then set aside another portion in his journey to the commercial street later.With a handmade basket in his hand, he left the house before Gino and Evo.The basket he had had nothing but fabrics inside. Katya knew the direction to the commercial market with her attempt to fish before.After two and a half hour, he reached the place.S

    Ritian walked the small village with a little hesitation. Katya asked for a day to hide and hunt her own food because Evo and Gino's house had no spare food to feed a cat. With no way of calling his cat back, he could only walk aimlessly for an hour, quietly observing the people around.The town's aquatic resources aren't close to their home. In fact, people who wanted to fish had to go in the commercial street because their trading center are situated near the docks for easy access and fresh goods.Their primary source of food is planting corn. Corn can be a substitute to rice and is less expensive. Although the texture and the size of each grains doesn't look the same, the corn is just as filling.The corn milling factories produces two. The corn grains which they eat for every meal and corn flour. With the latter has difficulties exporting it to towns because of the pests eating away the flour on the way with the long journey.Their village is indeed close to the commercial street

    The chicken was not that a lot. But with Evo's expert ways, the dish is enough to last them for two meals.They went home with grimy faces, scratched skin and a basket full of sweet potatoes, wild vegetables and herbs that can cure colds and low fever then a handful of chili.Evo minced the chicken along with its bone into tiny, unrecognisable pieces. When he was done, he went to the house next door and asked for a little bit of their banana stalk.Ritian watched as Evo specifically chose the soft and whitest part of the stalk, peeling it clean and nice then mincing it the same with the chicken.When he was done, he ordered Ritian to open an old coconut. Ritian tried to hack the compact thing with their rusty machete. Evo frowned like he was facing a math problem ‘Ritian-olus’. He didn't ask why Ritian is useless but the contempt in his eyes doesn't really need a verbal explanation.The process was an arduous job. Ritian knew that cooking in modern times was made easier with the ready

    Ritian woke up earlier than both of the youth in the house. He slapped his arms and legs, mildly annoyed with the mosquitoes hanging around him to provide company at four in the morning. If this was the modern age, he would have complained at how early was he cooking breakfast but since it's the ancient time, he woke up early to cook another batch of white porridge.He cooked the rice until it could be swallowed easily. The smooth texture contains just the right amount of salt. This should enlighten Gino on how much to put in next time.At five in the morning, Evo padded in the kitchen, mumbling a soft greeting towards him before cleaning his face in the sink. "You usually wake up this early?"'No. I can't sleep last night.' Maybe it was because of the new surrounding but Ritian find it difficult to get a wink of sleep. 'This is fine. It's good to practice myself into waking up early anyway.'"Let's go to the mountain after breakfast. The school starts at nine. Gino will be there to e
