When Kryst changed direction towards the north east , something suddenly flashed in front of him and pounced . Kryst subconsciously mobilized his ability and released a neat to capture the white figure .
A few seconds later , a cute whining resonated silently in the silent forest . Kryst crouched down and looked at the creature he captured , only then did he saw that it was actually just the spitz dog that he saw last week .
" The stupid white dog . " He muttered .
Kryst retracted the string of cobweb like net and lifted up the dog . The Spitz silently stared back at the toddler with its paws dangling in the air . It suddenly whinned pitifully and slowly wag its tail . Kryst's eyes was drawn to the snow tail then looked back at its spiritual eyes .
" Stupid dog ... What are you? "
The spitz dog answered with a soft whimper . The coquettish look somehow made Kryst feel like he's facing a spoiled kid wanting to be petted .
" Where's your dad? "
The pointy muzzle of the Spitz leaned over and rubbed Kryst's cheeks . The toddler subconsciously closed one of his eyes . " Stupid dog! Stop licking my cheeks . "
The snow white dog whinned and put its paws on both of Kryst's shoulders . Kryst sighed and put the dog to the ground and proceeded to walk forward .
The Spitz barked and followed the little elf but the elf always avoided it . It wants to rub its body to the elf but the elf threathened it if he continues on doing it . Throughout the little elf's journey all he heard was the Spitz' coy whimpers and soft barks .
Kryst's stoic face began cracking as an annoyed expression started surfacing . The toddler looked back , the Spitz walking on the path arrogantly suddenly turned conquettish and wag its tail happily . Kryst had long since observed that this Spitz dog is a two faced b** .
This dog must have want something from Kryst , it always wants to be close to him that he started getting suspicious .
There's also an odd feeling within him that he could somehow understand the feelings or intentions of the dog .
" You can now enter the space , Kryst . " Yggdrasil's voice suddenly rang .
The little elf subconsciously paused and blinked before slowly nodding . He was about to enter but the Spitz dog suddenly bark in restlessness .
' don't leave me! Bring me with you! '
Kryst paused a doubtful look surfaced upon his countenance . The little elf stared at the pitiful look on the dog's face . He sneered then slowly mobilized his ability and wrapped the dog with cobwebs ... A few seconds later , they suddenly disappeared like a bubble .
An owl watching the scenario suddenly hoot in confusion .
- hoot! The little beautiful two legged monster disappeared like a wind! -
" Welcome back , Kryst ." Greeted Yggdrasil once the figure of the toddler appeared inside the space.
Yggdrasil's branches shook and waved to them . The Spitz suddenly felt a wave of consciousness staring at him . It suddenly barked at the tree and jumped around playfully .
Kryst calmly watched the dog then pointed at it . " Why does this stupid dog keeps on following me? I don't stink something they like do i? "
Yggdrasil chuckled and softly rubbed his branches on the little elf's soft cheeks ." You're an elf, favored by mother nature . Of course , animals will like you because of your scent . "
Kryst raised his right arm and sniffed his armpit. " I don't smell . "
" Well , it's not your physical smell ... Uhmm how should i say this ... Hmm , you have an aura that every animals or plants like . Just like how cats like catnips . "
" For dogs ... You are just like their anise. "
Kryst felt like he was being mocked or humiliated . The little elf sneered and climbed to his little hammock .
While the hammock swayed , Kryst stared at Yggdrasil's canopy and asked out loud ." When will you bear the second elf fruit . "
Yggdrasil shook its branches and answered . " Soon ... "
" When is the soon you're talking about ? "
Yggdrasil chuckled and rubbed the little elf's head . " It seems that my little elf is excited to welcome his fellow elves . "
Kryst didn't react but he spat out another weird question. " Since you accepted my parents' gene and became yggdrasil . That means , were half brothers right? "
Yggdrasil . " ... " He suddenly felt like this child's going to ask a more outrageous question later . " W-well ... Yeah?"
" I got reborn as the first elf you bore . Does that mean , you're my father/mother? "
If Yggdrasil is a human , he would have probably coughed out blood long ago .
" If you bore another elf fruit ... And another elf fruit ... If two elves mate ... Is it incest? "
" ... " Yggdrasil
" ... " The spiritual beast Spitz dog .
- woff? The child makes sense . -

Lienor stared dazed at the fire in front of him. In his hands there's a stick with a sweet potato . Crisp gave it to him earlier but somehow , he suddenly felt lonely . He was probably used to the little child's presence that he felt a bit at lost when the child went back to his own tribe again.
A small figure suddenly sat beside the young man . She also has red hair but was darker than the young man . " Brother Lie , what's that?"
Lienor woke up from his stupor and looked beside him . " Oh , Liena. "
" You want some? "
The teenager nodded and looked curiously at the thing stuck in the stick . Lienor blowed the heat and divided the sweet potato , he could see the yellowish part inside . Lienor subconsciously licked his dry lips and gave the other part to Liena .
Liena is his sibling . When he first saw this girl , she was really thin and dirty . Liena is a pretty teenager , and because of the small ratio of women in the tribe . All girls were highly coveted , sometimes they even shared their women with other men for pleasure .
When he first saw Liena , she was about to be forced upon by the ordinary warriors in the tribe . Lienor was enraged and fought with those men to save the girl , only to end up hearing that they were actually siblings .
His heart stirred at that time when he thought that what if he turned a blind eye to it . If he turned a blind eye , Liena will be successfully raped by those warriors .
Since then , Lienor often times checked this girl's well being in the tribe .
The teenager recieved the sweet potato and blew on it since it was still scaldingly hot. Liena then took a careful bite and slowly chewed , savoring the sweet taste of the sweet potato .
" Umai desu ne? " Lienor subconsciously spoke out loud .
( It's good , isn't it? ... Umai = Delicious )
" Hmmm? " Liena
Lienor immediately shook his head. " Forget it , i was asking if it's delicious . "
Liena's eyes sparkled and nodded while chewing . Lienor gave a thumbs up , Liena imitated it and showed her thumb . " It tastes good . "
Suddenly , the sound of a horn loudly resonated . All the tribesmen simultaneously looked up at the simple watchtower and saw the raised red flag .
Liena's mouth gaped open as her fingers turned cold . " B-brother ... The White Wolf Tribe ... They are besieging us . "
Lienor's eyes turned complicated ...
White Wolf Tribe ... They are now probably stronger than before . The Red Fox Tribe only has two blood warriors ... What should they do? To counter-attack or to escape?
