Tree-House

Violet's POV

We gather everything we have and start walking back to the village. Everyone watches us in excitement as they see what we are bringing over. Once of the kids run next to us to see what's in the basket.

"Jee what is that you're carrying?" he asks

"Fish." he says back to him

"Fish!" he says shocked

"Yes, we were able to catch some and cook them. Maybe later you can bring your brothers and try some." he says back to them

He must be good with kids. He naturally has a great communication skill with kids.

"I'll get them all and bring them now. Where will you be? he asks

Jee looks at me and I nod.

"Our house." he says proudly

I see the child look at me and he double takes

"Wow! You are so purty. I was so excited about what Jee was doing I missed you next to him. My name is Jan. I'm a peacock." He says to me and shows his feathers

He is so cute. His feathers are not too big but they are beautiful. He has green feathers that expand all around his body with a yellow owl-like eye pattern on him. Just like Jee, he has feet and claws, wings and arms. He has a human body but his wings are still showing so it looks like he does not know how to put them away yet. Maybe when he gets older.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Violet." I say back to him

I see Jee blush again and just realized he hasn't asked for my name yet. He must be that shy, poor guy.

"That's a pretty name. So you live with Jee now?" he asks

"We do but we are moving to one of the tree-houses today. Are you going to come by later?" I ask him

"Yes! Which one?" he asks me and I look at Jee curious

"The one by the open field." Jee says back to me

"Oh that's not too far from us. I will get my brothers and head over there." he says and runs away

"He's pretty energetic." I say back to him laughingly

"That one, yes. He is very curious and loves to explore. He will enjoy all of this when he brings his brothers." he says back to me and we start walking

It's about a 15 minute walk from where we were to the tree-house. It's not bad. I can definitely climb up there but I can't bring anything up with me.

"They made a ladder for you. So you can be able to climb up so it's easier." Jee says to me

"Thank you. I will need to figure out how to get stuff up here if I need to bring anything up here on my own." I say back to him

"If you end up bringing anything up I can help you. Actually I will bring everything up in the future." he says back confidently.

"Okay sounds good to me. But we should have something to haul things up in the future." I say to him

"If you want we can then." he says to me and waits for me to go up the ladder

It's a pretty spacious spot. A little hut on a branch. We walk in and there's a small room and somewhat of a kitchen. I look for a bathroom and don't see any. How am I supposed to take showers and use the bathroom? We walk more into the house and there's a little room. It's not big but it's enough. Just enough room to sleep. Maybe later I can get a bigger house but for now this is perfect.

I look outside and the view is breathtaking. I can see the fruit field that we were at and the stream. Maybe he picked this spot so that it's easier for us to just leave and go there. Regardless this is my house now and I have someone that will be with me and keep me company. For now I will need to get through this and figure out how to survive here.

System Notification: "Congrats on your new home! Maintaining your own house in the Beast World is a plus! Learn to upgrade it and you get more bonus points. Here's a gift!"

Oh my book! It's a receipt on how to make soap, shampoo and conditioner! Phew! I will need this too! I can't wait to try this. A lot of these I am not too familiar with but maybe Jee will know what they are.

"Jee, where do we go to bathe and use the bathroom?" I ask him

"Oh we usually go to the stream to bathe and for the bathroom we would walk to a secluded area and do our business there. Do you have to use the bathroom? And do you want to go to the stream to bathe?" he asks shyly

"Not now but soon before it gets dark. And clothes, do you have more?" I ask him

"Clothes? What is that?" he asks me

"You know how to cover your body?" I ask curiously

"I have never seen the clothes you wear before. I don't know how to make that but I can find things to try to make something similar to that." he says to me and leaves

That guy is too impulsive. He set everything from today down by the door so I will place them where we should have them. There are no tables or chairs or beds. Nothing here besides a nest. I need to start changing things up here.

System Notification: "Upgrade your house with new furnishes. This will improve your relationship with your potential husband and add your prestige level to the tribe."

Great! I can receive bonus items again. I place the basket outside and take the coconuts and fish inside the house. These can also be dried. That way we can preserve the fish and eat it later on. Now we have bowls and a knife. Later I can make more utensils, plates and pots. The more the easier it is to cook. I wonder if we can add a fire in here. I checked an area close to the door and we could be able to crack a window in this area. There are no windows here and no light. It's getting darker so we will need something for light. Are all of them nocturnal birds? I look outside and see no light fixtures. So we need something for light, clothes, utensils, bathroom and shower.

"Knock knock pretty lady are you here?" I hear Jan ask

I walk out and see Jan and 3 others with him.

"Are these your brothers?" I ask him

"Yes. Carl, Luke and Peter." He says pointing at his brothers

"Jan was right, you are purty!" Luke says to me blushing

"Awe thank you. You guys are pretty handsome too!" I say to them and they all start blushing

"My mom says I am fast enough as a hunter that all the females will love me!" Peter says

"Well mom said that I sing so well all the females will fall for me for sure!" Carl says next

"You can sing and hunt but I can do it all and I am the most good looking!" Jan says out loud and puffs out his chest

The other boys all start laughing.

"I believe everything that your mom says." I chime in and tell them

"We like her!" All the boys say in unison

"Backup backup she's already taken by Jee." Jan says to them

"Awe! Well one day we hope we can have someone purty like you Violet!" they all say to me with sad faces

"One day I know you will." I say to them and pat them all on their head
