Meanwhile back with Jesus, He was currently walking around the village to see if anything is new. Jesus could tell that the village is bigger the last time he was here and the walls surrounding the village seemed sturdier than before
While Jesus was exploring and was avoiding all of the villagers, a few kids went up to him and out of curiosity Jesus stared at the kids going towards him
"What do you kids want?" Jesus asked
"Are you by chance Jesus? The person who saved us from the other Tribe" A kid in the group asked
Every adult that was around that area started to listen very closely at the man's answer and of course, Jesus notice this but decided to answer
"Yeah, my name is Jesus. What do you want" The kids' curiosity was now gone and went straight to excitement
"Jesus you're actually here. I thought you ditch us" one kid in the group said
"Yeah I thought you left us and wasn't coming back"
"I'm glad you're back"
"I'm only staying for a few days so don't get attached to me"
"What! you said we were getting married. you lie to me" A girl in the kids' group started crying
'What the hell I never promise you anything' Jesus thought
Without noticing since his full attention was on the kids, many adults and kids alike that knows Jesus were slowly walking towards him
"Welcome back Jesus. It's been almost 2 months" He turned around and saw a face he definitely didn't recognize and thought it was some random villager in the Tribe in which he was right
"Hi, I guess. Also, why are you guys surrounding me like you're going to jump me"
"Oh come on, we haven't seen each other in almost 2 months"
"Yeah that's right"
"Ah besides that, did you got a new pet?"
"What happened to your other one. Did it die?"
Everyone was talking around him and Lucy started to get irritated while Jesus on the other hand didn't seem bothered instead he asked the system a question
'What with them? why are they flocking over me like I'm sort of hero?'
[ They admire strong demons and will show them with kind and respect. No matter what age or gender the demon is, they will admire them ]
'Is that one of the reasons why demons seek to get stronger?'
[ That's sometimes the case but their greed to get stronger is higher than that. Every demon wants to get stronger but without talent, you will die sooner than later ]
'I see, that makes sense on why not everyone here can get stronger because they will die easily'
[ Precisely the case ]
'Master I'm about to attack one of these people so you better tell them to stop talking' Lucy said with an irritated voice making Jesus snapped out of his talk with the system
'Okay, I will since they're loud' Jesus then clapped his hand at full force, that it managed to make the demons around him shut up
"I came here to explore but you are blocking my way. Even Lucy is irritated"
The villagers looked at Jesus first as it didn't have a hint of anger on his face, and then at Lucy who definitely got an angry expression on her face
"Ah, sorry about that. We will try not to bother you"
'What do you mean try? you shouldn't bother me at all'
"Well can you tell me where's Aiden at"
"Oh, he's out hunting right now. One of us will let you know when he's here" one of the villagers said
Jesus nods his head and begins exploring the village again to see how it changed. Of course, when he was exploring, a few villagers decided to go up to him and talk to him so it took him a bit more time to explore the village. After he was done with that, he decided to go back to Alex's house to talk to him about his new house
"Oh you're back," Alex said while he saw Jesus enter his house
"So what do you think? Is it bigger the last time you were here Jesus?"
"Yeah, it's bigger than before. It took me a while to explore the whole village since the villagers keep coming up to me and talking to me"
"Ah, I see. So what's with the new wolf? Did the other one died?"
"No this is the same wolf. She just went through an evolution"
"Oh, I would've thought your wolf died since Dire Wolves are quite weak"
'Why do they think I've died. they're getting on my nerves' Lucy said in anger but Jesus just ignored her whining
" Wolves having pure black fur are extremely rare, so what did it evolve to?"
"That's a secret. I don't trust you enough to tell you"
....
"Ah okay, that make sense, Wolves with fur like that are rare and will fetch a high price"
"Exactly, so don't tell anyone outside the village or else," Jesus said in a threatening voice that manages to scare Alex a little
"O-Ok I promise I won't say anything"
....
A few seconds of silence has passed as the air around them was awkward. No words have been spoken until Alex decides to ask a question
"Anyways, how was the entrance exam for the school? Was it hard?"
"It was mostly easy. The writing exam was harder but I managed to get by. As for the combat exam, I managed to bruise the instructor a little bit"
"WHAT!" Alex yelled in shocked
"YOU MANAGED TO BRUISE THE INSTRUCTOR, THAT'S AMAZING"
"Ah *Ahem* sorry about that, I was just simply amazed you could bruise an instructor even if it's a little one. Almost 2 months ago, you almost lost to the Distruzione Tribe Leader. I can't believe it"
"You're getting worked up for nothing. it was only a small bruise on his cheek"
"But that's the thing, you managed to hurt him even if it was a small bruise. Instructors at the school are equal to or higher than an Orichamlum rank hunter. A Mithril rank hunter can only dream of bruising an Orichamlum rank but you managed to do just that"
"Okay Okay, I get it. Now for a different topic, where's my house at" Jesus bluntly said
"Ah sorry about that I'll lead you the way" Alex then got up from his couch and started to lead Jesus to his house. After a few minutes of walking, they finally arrived and head inside Jesus's house. Jesus explore the house for a few minutes until he went back to Alex
"Hmm, not too big and not too small, looks nice. Thanks for the house"
"You're welcome. Well I'm going to head back to my house"
Jesus nods his head and saw Alex heading out. While Alex was walking back to his house, he had been thinking of many things
'It's impossible to get that powerful in a short amount of time'
'Wait, what if he has the bloodline of the originals. That would make sense, right?'
'But why was someone with the bloodline of the originals living in the wilderness before he visited this village?' Alex question
'This whole thing doesn't make sense. Who are you, Jesus?'
