[Chapter 06] - Eggs - Part 3

The boy reduces everyone's weight, but the wind blows hard at all times, simultaneously expelling the four from the mountain, making them fly together — less than two meters away — including the eggs. Kahyu in desperation grabs his brother's hand, who is also desperate.

— We're going to die! — Screams Whiger .

— Help! — Kahyu exclaims .

— Boy, do something!

Before Roldi even said, Kalui was already in action. He moves his arms up and down in a circular motion. At the same time, a vortex of wind starts around everyone, grouping them together as they spin wildly. Whiger vomits everything in his stomach and slightly hits his sister's arm and leg. With all of them together, the child undoes the air vortex and keeps his friends afloat, just as he does with himself, increasing and decreasing the wind force used depending on the wind that blows against them. Each one holds an egg and in a few minutes, all land safely in a small opening in the dense forest.

Whiger looks at the mountains, which even though surrounded by tall trees, were still visible.

— Wow ... In a few seconds we came to a distance. I thought you were going to take us flying!

— I can't guarantee that nobody will fly. Landing is easier. — He raises his eyebrow and smiles wickedly — Or would you rather take a chance?

— Fearful like that, he'll run away! — Kahyu says , with a disdainful smile. — He even threw up on me ...

Everyone looks at her, amazed at the tranquility that she said that. Incredulous, Roldi asks:

— Kahyu ... What did your brother do?

— That scared man threw up on — She looks at his arms and legs. Then the blood begins to rise to the head. — You threw up on me! Try cleaning it up right now!

Whiger, knowing what would happen, does not undo his transformation and starts running with the eggs in his hand.

— We live together! You can't get away from me! — She says as she punches her hands.

Kalui takes the girl's shoulder and says:

— Kahyu , leave him alone! Clean up soon and let's go home. The mother must be coming!

— Get out of that tree soon, Whiger . Let's run home. As Kalui is making us and the eggs light, it won't be a problem. Right!?

Whiger puts his face out of the tree.

— Yes sir!

Halfway home, Whiger interrupts the race by shouting:

— Are you forty years old !?

Year 952, day 226, Elfen territory , Forest of the border town with Mercy , 16h.

Later in the day, Roldi cooks those giant eggs while Kalui salivates in hopes of getting ready. At the same time, at the Nevin family home , Whiger and Kahyu's father calls out to them at their home window. A house made entirely of smooth stone, painted in a very light purple color, with round wooden windows and wooden doors. It is the first house in the village, if it comes from the Forest.

— The soup will get cold!

— I'm coming, dad!

— Oops! Food!

The parents waited for their children to have lunch, as they knew they were on a mission with their mentor Roldi, who is respected and loved by everyone in the family.

His parents are tall, thin and slim. The mother, named Laruel , has short dark blond hair, at the height of her neck; wearing a brown and beige peasant dress. His father is called Bend, his hair is black and very close; he wears a red jumpsuit and a beige blouse. They both work hard, living off their own crops and the eggs of their six hens, both selling and eating them. Even in this arduous life, they manage to provide a pleasant, peaceful and happy life for their skilled children.

With everyone sitting at the table and eating, Bend begins the lunch conversation:

— So, kids, how was today's adventure? They didn't — Whiger cuts his father excitedly.

— Daddy!

The mother smiles seeing her son's euphoria.

— Say! — Bend answers, just as excited.

— I thought of a way to maybe win a good amount of coins! Hehehe ...

Parents look at each other with laughter. This time his mother replies:

— Our son, how amazing! You can tell your idea.

Kahyu looks at his brother suspiciously.

— Do you know the two eggs we brought? I think they can be worth many, many, many coins!

When saying this, Kahyu kicks his brother's leg under the table with all his strength, the fright, makes him spill the soup from his plate all over the table.

— Ah! Whiger ! Look what you did ... As you must be tired today, I'll clean it for you.

Head down, he replies:

— Sorry, mom ...

— But he is a really big baby ... Do you want me to clean, Mother?

Taking the cloth off the wooden table, Laruel replies:

— Stay calm, daughter. You are also tired. Relax and eat, I already removed the cloth.

— I help you dear!

Parents leave the house to get a clean cloth from the clothesline. As soon as they pass through the door, Kahyu begins to argue with his brother.

— Whiger ! Roldi said not to sell the eggs under any circumstances! The way they are hungry, they must be devouring the eggs right now!

— I know, but they don't care about coins! They live in the middle of the forest, eat what they hunt and are happy. We can sell and help Dad and Mom!

The girl walks away a little, thoughtfully.

— And who guarantees that someone will give some money for that?

— You do not remember? He said how rare it was to find these animals ... — He gets up from his chair, slapping his hands on the table. — Think how expensive an egg must be! Will someone buy to shock or just to eat like Mr. Roldi? Don't you think it's worth a try?

She walks further away, arms crossed.

— I ... I think it might be a good idea. They have been working a lot here. I saw mom and dad trying to convince the uncle of the seeds to give some of them away for free ... I'm with you on this one.

The boy celebrates:

— This! We are going to surprise them. I just hope these eggs don't hatch until tomorrow. Let's sell them early!

— Mom's coming, sit down!
