"Well, no animal is a predator when in front of me, and these things I see of equal trade to what you ask for, especially with what your food reminds me of," I say with some pride before a slight grin spreads as I think of the feeling I had when I ate that steak.
"This is still too much, though. Even if you could easily kill them and find it an equal trade, this is more valuable than anything you could find in the clan." The Na'vi says in awe as she continues to look into the basket rather than look back up at me.
"As I said, the food you made reminded me of something extremely important, so I would give the same things millions of times over as long as I could have that feeling again, so please accept it and give me the food." I insistent looked over the fire behind them with a grill-like thing above it.
"Okay, but give me a moment. This will take a while. How do you plan to carry it all?" The Na'vi asks, realizing that I don't have a visible way to carry all this food. Then, I remembered that I just pulled out a basket filled with items out of nowhere, so I just returned to the grill.
"Don't worry about it; I have a way to carry it all." I intently watch how they grill the food at an increasingly fast rate, with the grill somehow perfectly keeping up as if this was a TV show and following anime logic.
'So it's them just using crushed-up peepers and what looks like the blood and strange sauce of something as a marinade. I guess that can make sense for where I'm at.' I watch intently as they flip the steak with what looks like years of experience and perfectly char the outside of one of the kebabs.
'well, besides just creepily watching them, how about I finally use my telepathy as I wait instead of just waiting.' I open up my mind to receiving thoughts, causing my mind to be hit with a flood of thoughts, causing my mind to quickly start sorting through the thoughts somewhat effortlessly, causing several thought strands to be removed from the stream and others to rush to my head more rapidly as they take more priority.
'so there are a couple of idiots across the clan trying to buy some of the competing stalls. That way, there isn't any competition. It seems like I'm back home; even though I don't remember anything important, I can somehow remember Disney buying all its competition and then suing a child. My memory has a bizarre set of priorities, especially with what it remembered.' I look back at the Na'vi cooking to see that they have somehow already cooked what seems like half the body weight of an elephant.
'How were they able to cook that much food that fast? ' I ask, staring at them cook to see how, in God's name, they did that. I see that they are pretty much channeling the power of anime as they speed-blitz the making of food.
'I wasn't expecting to meet the Na'vi version of Soma Yukihira as this man is defying how cooking works and even the fire is under the grill because how in God's name is the fire blue, and this man is unbothered.' as I continue to wonder how this man is defying laws. I realize that I have jumped through worlds, so I just need to accept the bullshit.
'Maybe I'm just putting too much thought into it.' As I look to my left, I see that the stall next to this one is currently selling instruments made from leather and bones.
'those are some well-made instruments, especially that tribal drum. They made it relatively perfectly with how it looks.' I scan over the drum and then hear the Na'vi cough slightly to get my attention and see that he has finished cooking all the food in his stall.
"I have cooked everything I have within my stall and even tried to make a couple of unique stuff with combinations I saw working well," the Na'vi says with a clear sound of tiredness in their voice. Sweat finally starts to form on their forehead from sitting in front of that fire for so long.
"Well, I will try those then, but thank you for the food. I hope you make something good with the stuff I gave you. Suppose Vey'kam tries to charge you for making anything with it. In that case, I will hit him for you extra hard." The Na'vi then hands me a rope attached to what is pretty much a sled as I drag it forward and teleport it all into my inventory. I finally decide to put my weapons in there as well.
"Where did you put that all?" the Na'vi asks with curiosity, with a small group around me wondering how I did it. "It's simple. I just defied the logic of space." I say with a straight face and watch the group of Na'vi around me, confused about what the word space means as they currently have no basis in physics and its dreadful study.
"Right, you guys don't know what space is yet. just imagine I made it disappear and can make it reappear if I want to." I say in a more simplified term as I question if that was a good enough explanation and then think it really doesn't matter all that much since they probably won't figure out what that means for another four hundred years. By that point, I would already be gone.
"Okay, that makes more sense now, but I'm just not going to question it too much." one of the Na'vi in the crowd says as he walks away. 'Well, that was slightly random, but it's fine. Now it is time to leave and go catch back up to Tiali.' I then wave to the Na'vi behind the stall and walk towards where I remember leaving Tiali.
'She should be right around here.' As I look around to see if I am correct, I see Tiali off at a stall a little bit away. I slowly start walking towards it and quickly see that Tiali is bartering over what looks like an Austrapede claw necklace.
"So this is what you have been doing, Tiali, while I went to get myself more food." I walk next to Tiali and see that she barely spares me a glance as she gives in to the stall keeper and hands them what they want for it.
"Yes, lost child, this is what I have been doing. After all, I got bored of waiting, and this necklace looked enticing." Tiali says with a straight face as we walk away from the stall keeper, who has a giant smile about what they could get for the necklace.
"That is fair, but I believe it is time for me to leave. I enjoyed going through the market and saw some nice things, but nothing truly caught my eyes." I say with a tone of slightly growing boredom as I look at the stalls, which seem to repeat themselves and sell identical items. Only a few of them have different things; even then, there is nothing of interest.
"I understand that lost child. You have already stayed longer than I was expecting, so as I say for my tribe, we thank you for visiting and even trading a couple of things with us, and we will remember your presence here." Tiali says with respect and understanding of my growing boredom. She then turns away and continues to walk through the sea of stalls.
'Well, it's time to leave now, though. I don't know where exactly I want to go next.' as I look around one last time with respect for the clan and teleport into the sky while quickly shifting into a Stormglider.
'Before I go to the next clan, how about I explore my inner world a bit and finally acknowledge one of my mutations.' I then start to dive bomb towards a lone tree in the distance and land on it effortlessly as I then suck myself into my inner world.
'Now, where exactly do I want to start?' I wonder as I let my senses span my entire inner world and morph into my normal form. I feel the heat of my body and the battling cold within it, causing several spouts of steam to come out from my spines as I walk across the beach of the main island of my inner world.
'Do I want to start with my already developed and practically empty Arctic, which I really need to find a way to populate? Or I could explore my forests now that they should be filled with life.' I see several animals fighting each other over food, with some regional Na'vi watching from trees and waiting for one to win before they jump down and kill the winner.
'Lets go with my forest since it should already have some life, though my senses being able to go over my entire inner world kind of gets rid of the fun since I can see everything already in great detail.' as I watch the rapidly growing clan of Na'vi in the middle of the forest as hunters constantly come and go with food and there improvised weapons as I start to contemplate if I eat one of Eywa's Woodsprites that way I can give the Na'vi a tree of souls.
'It's not like they really need one, though they don't seem to have any train of thought, just kind of following the same basis the one I originally ate did, so pretty much just exist, though I can probably give them intelligence in the future.' as my eyes then roam over towards my hallelujah mountains and see another clan of Na'vi flying around on Banshees and doing air tricks with there being a Na'vi on a Great Leonopteryx in the front of them all leading them towards what I assume to be there Hometree.
" It's nice to see that there is already a clan with banshees and even a Great Leonopteryx. Hopefully, with time, there will be one with Thanator's as well." My eyes snap to my volcanic area, and I see what looks eerily similar to the Outcasts, but I remember I didn't eat any of them.
'Why and how are they here?' I stared grimly at the giant clan of Na'vi in underground caverns spanning the entire volcanic region. They seemed to have already set up a colosseum down there, and I watched several of their brethren fight to a gory and bloody death in it.
'How are they down here? I didn't eat any of them, and how could they set up this colosseum? Is it not just what I eat that comes here?' I ask as I teleport above the colosseum and watch the gladiator-like battle unfold.
'if it's more than what I eat with time, this entire place will be filled, though it also seems that this place keeps growing because when Jörmungandr grows, so does this place, and he doesn't seem to stop growing, and he rapidly does whenever I eat something that needs its biome like I did with the Banshee's and how I got my own Hallelujah mountains.' as I realize that my inner world with time truly will be a world and probably a lot more than that in a couple years.
'god, does that mean when I eat something that needs to live in space, I will get an entire star system.' as I look up towards the sky, I see that while there is a sun and two moons, there aren't any actual stars or anything else just that.
'I got distracted again, but I guess I need to keep these guys alive because even if I were to kill them, they would just come back anyway, and besides, in the future, if I can take them out, they would make good cannon fodder.' I look away from the raving Na'vi as they watch one of their brethren get pitted against a Thanator and watch him quickly get eaten alive.
As my eyes wander to my Arctic region, I see several Glow whales and Frostbite leviathans in the water but nothing else. I watch how the Frostbite Leviathans fight each other to death constantly so they can eat something.
'I really need to find something to put in this area. That way, they have something to eat. I should have eaten more stuff in sector zero. That way, they wouldn't be starving like this. The Glow whales seem fine as they have their plankton, but they seem very lonely as I remember them swimming with other schools of fish.' I sadly watch the Frostbite leviathans and Glow whales.
'Watching them just feels depressing. I will need to visit this planet's Arctic to see if I can find them some more food sources and even some friends, hopefully. ' I turn my eyes away from the sad scene that is the Arctic region and teleport above Jörmungandr.
"Okay, big guy, let's see. You seem to have grown another couple hundred miles, so you are still growing pretty steadily, which is good. It seems all of your friends are happy. However, they all seem like ants or plankton compared to your size." I say to the big guy as I look over the hundreds of Ghost Leviathans swimming around Jörmungandr and cleaning him off as one of their food sources.
"Well, that's all I really need to do, so by, Jörmungandr," I say as I leave just as fast as I arrive, teleport to the top of the Hallelujah mountains, and morph into my Na'vi form.
'It's time to do one of the things I actually planned on when I came here. I have to sort through all the memories I have from eating everything, as I have just been pushing them off. I've honestly been scared to look through it all and see what I might find, though thankfully, the description of it says the memories shouldn't affect me emotionally or mentally.' I look over the description one last time, then sigh as I delve through the giant mess of foreign memories.
----------------------
{ A/N Well, this chapter is another more laid-back one, as you guys can see, but from what I'm planning, the next one should be the last before we go clan hopping again and then deal with the RDA, but as you guys have seen, I have been trying to delve more into the clans as well as his inner world and show some new things like how the Outcasts are here even though he never ate any of them.
But that aside, I will be leaving a world vote under this, with the ones under it being a one-chapter stop each and maybe some character dialogue, but possibly not; please leave your votes.
