Ben and Vincent both regularly came to play with Joe, through these interactions he was able to grasp more and more words in this world. Through these interactions, he also found out that his name in this world is Aesir. He was now able to communicate by babbling some words, such as he often called Vincent ' Big Brother' in his baby tongue, Vincent was a handsome boy with blue hair while Ben was a normal black hair boy. Both of them were around 15 years old. In their eyes, Aesir was a cute and clever child who does not cry like other kids always do so they often were rough while playing him, they would toss him in the air and catch him like a toy. Joe was a little annoyed but he is used to this kind of treatment now, after all these two were the only ones he has got here to interact and learn to speak from.
One day Vincent thought of bringing Joe outside the room, but Ben agreed with him. This was the first time he would have gone out of this room when they passed through the door with Joe in their hand, Joe became extremely happy. It was a great day for him to see more of this world, he started giggling which made the two boys proud of their decision. He realized there were not many people living in the building. This place was some kind of educational institute, he had Mark follow them. Soon they got out of the building in a garden where many people were sitting enjoying the warm and comfortable sunlight. It was a good day outside which is why Ben and Vincent decided to bring Joe outside of his room for a little walk. It was a refreshing experience for him. Ben started to show Joe the surrounding area. First, he showed him a big fountain and flowers around it. The garden had other things such as a small pond, trees and various statues. Joe was looking towards the building where he came out from, it was a tower-like structure the size was too big, there were many handmade decorations on the tower and different kinds of symbols. Suddenly some people started gathering around the three of them,
" Senior Vincent, who is this child with you?" It was a girl who asked him.
" Cara, this is Aesir, he is my teacher's adopted son or you can say grandson considering his age," Vincent lightly laughed at his joke.
" Senior, give me I want to hold him as well" other people were also looking at him.
" No, the teacher told us to take care of him." Ben refused to hand the child to anyone else.
" But senior Ben, I will just play with him a little."
" He is not a toy, stop I won't give him to you"
" Ben, Don't be like that, let her play with Aesir. Nothing will happen".
Ben hesitated but agreed, Cara was now holding Aesir. Honestly, it felt more comfortable to joe for some reason, Cara was not an uncaring person like the boys. She was gently holding him while supporting his whole body, and Joe felt more comfortable.
" Haha, he is such a cute and easy-going child. Isn't he senior? He looks happy with me."
" You know what it's much happier when I play with him." Ben pouted when he saw Aesir looking happier with Cara while Vincent commented " Typical of men".
That day Joe met with many people in the garden. It was his first time being doted on like this, everyone was feeling happy as well while playing with him but soon they went back to his room.
Slowly time passed and now he was able to grasp many words and even started speaking complete sentences. Soon the day, when he was adopted, was about to come, so it was like his birthday. The old man and the two boys planned a celebration for him.
But half a month before this celebration something strange happened during the night, he had a dream similar to what he used to have. But this dream was much more straining for him, countless information started to flow through Joe's brain and when the dream ended he realized that he can understand the language that is spoken in this world. He started recalling his memories of this world after his rebirth and now he could understand all of those conversations completely. It was surprising and confusing for him but he was drained out of energy completely, he could not help but sleep.
Ben and Vincent, when they came to visit Aesir in the morning they too noticed that he was not looking good. They soon reported this to the old man, it was the first time Aesir looked so ill, he had a very high fever. When the old man came inside and checked on Aesir he too became worried about him, no healing spell was working on him. They couldn't leave this as it was, for the first time they were facing something like this.
Meanwhile, Aesir was still unconscious, the toll was too much. It was like his brain was overloaded, he was in an unconscious state for several days. Many doctors checked the condition and didn't find anything, Ben, Vincent and the old man got more worried about the situation.
" Ben, Vincent, you two stay here, I will go bring something that could help him," he said and went in a rush.
" Hey Ben, do you not know any other doctors that can help? It's been two days and I am not feeling good. What if something happens to Aesir?" Vincent was weeping while saying this.
" Don't cry like this, he will get through this. I know the teacher will do something."
The old man returned one hour later, " Ben, open his mouth for me". The old man poured a red liquid into Aesir's mouth. However, nothing seemed to happen besides Aesir's body glowing.
" What was this master? Why is he glowing?"
Suddenly Aesir began to breathe faster but slowly the breathing became normal. He was looking healthy now but he was still asleep.
" This is an elixir, I traded with Elves. It can heal any kind of injury and remove curses from the body. I think Aesir might have got some kind of curse from somewhere" The old man made an assumption.
" What? Really, who would do that? I will roast them dead." Ben and Vincent became furious after hearing that.
" I don't think he was cursed here, it may be even before I found him and the curse might have activated today. Look he has gotten healthy again" The old man comforted both of them. He strongly believed that his tower can not be infiltrated and why would someone infiltrate it to harm a child.
The night was again not too good for anyone, everyone was worried when Aesir would wake up. Meanwhile, Aesir was having a nightmare. It was just like the time when he died, feeling a similar pain and trauma once again but when he was fed the elixir he felt a little calm and the pain began to ease up once again. Slowly he regained consciousness but as soon as he woke he started crying loudly, this was the first time that anyone has seen him cry this much as a baby in this world. Aesir was a cute child in the eyes, Ben and Vincent who never saw Aesir cry like this, they also felt their eyes filled with tears seeing Aesir cry. While the old man was reminiscing about the time when he first met Aesir, he was crying like this on that day as well, however, he was also thankful that he finally woke up and everything will be alright again.
