My Elf System

10. Dinner With Mom And Aunt.

[Update complete.]

[Congratulations to the host for unlocking a new stage of The Elf System.]

[The Second Stage of the Elf System is now activated.]

[Unlocking The Sprout Elf System.]

[This system allows the host to easily explore his surroundings, and to interact easily with your family, thereby increasing your curiosity, creativity, and empathy towards those you care about.]

[With the host evolving from a baby into a young elf, your attributes have been adjusted to suit your needs.]

[Would you like to take a look at what each of your current attributes denotes?]

‘Yes.’

The system acknowledged his response and a new screen appeared in front of him, displaying what each of his attributes meant.]

[Strength:- This attribute increases the host strength, enabling you to easily perform simple activities like running, playing, and lifting small objects other forest elves your age simply can't lift.]

[Vitality:- This allows the host to withstand illnesses and injuries.]

[Agility:- This attribute makes it easier for the host to climb, jump, and run.]

[Charisma:- This attribute denotes your ability to make friends and communicate with them effectively.]

[Intelligence:- This deals with your ability to learn basic skills like reading and writing.]

[Emotional Intelligence:- This attribute allows you to understand, manage emotions, and empathize with those close to you.]

Orion read through what his attributes had improved into since he had grown from a baby into a young elf.

The moment he finished reading it, the words on the screen vanished and a new string of words appeared before him.

[Just like the baby elf system, the host will also be presented with missions divided into three tiers.]

[Would you like to check out your first mission tier?]

‘Yes,’ Orion replied, and his new set of missions were displayed before him.

[Response acknowledged.]

[A list of three Tier-one Mission is now available.]

[First Mission:- The World]

[Obtain a basic knowledge of the world from your mother or aunt.]

[Second Mission:- History.]

[Learn a bit about the world’s history from your mother or aunt.]

[Third Mission:- Understand A Bit About Your Race.]

[It’s scary, isn’t it?!! You suddenly developed the ability to speak fluently overnight. Now, ask your mother how this is even possible before you lose your mind.]

Orion read through the missions he had to do, and once again, he felt more than happy to carry out all the quests listed on the screen, knowing that he would not only be able to complete the quest easily but that he would also be gifted some really good skills and attributes.

‘Let’s get started, I can’t wait to know more about myself and how this system works as well,’ Orion uttered excitedly in his thoughts.

“Mama, can we eat now, I can’t wait to learn more about who we are,” He instantly tugged at his mother and pulled her towards the dining room even though he didn't know exactly where the dining room was.

“Fufufu, Okay baby,” Evelyn quickly carried Orion into her arms and in less than a second, they both arrived at the large majestic dining table which had only the food Orion, Evelyn, and Elena would eat.

The whole castle was as silent as a graveyard, but Orion was surprised to see that someone; either his aunt or mother, had taken the initiative to prepare breakfast without any maids in the castle.

‘I think Auntie should be the one who prepared breakfast.’

‘She was the only one who wasn’t in Mama’s bedroom while Mama and I were talking this morning.’

‘And I doubt mama would want to leave me alone in her room again after what happened yesterday.’

‘Anyway, the food smells really good, I can’t believe Auntie is really a good cook.’

Orion sat beside his mother with his breakfast in front of him.

Looking at the myriad of delicacies in front of him, Orion understood why his mother and Aunt, who were elves, liked eating fruits and food related to vegetables, but he hadn't expected his mother and Aunt to be interested in eating meat as well.

‘Based on the books about elves I’ve read in the past, most elves do not eat meat.’

‘I guess those stories were just based on the author’s ideology.’

Orion decided not to ponder about this but to ask his mother directly.

“Hmm? Meat? Well, sweetie, since we high elves and forest elves live within the forest, we can’t depend on fruits and nuts alone forever, you know,” Evelyn began to explain when Orion asked if every other elf could also eat meat.

“This was why we extended our diet towards hunting and eating meat as well. Of course, whenever we hunt a forest beast or magical beast, we always give thanks to nature for providing us with the food we ate yesterday, the food we are eating today, and the food we’ll eat tomorrow as well. This has been in our culture for centuries now.”

Orion nodded his head in understanding before looking at the porridge in front of him.

Since he was still a young elf, there was a limit to the kind of food his current body could absorb.

Orion grabbed his spoon to take a scoop of his porridge in front of him but his eyes widened in surprise when the porridge slid down his throat and his taste buds screamed with delight while his pointed ears twitched excitedly.

“It’s tasty, right?” Evelyn asked after noticing the excited look on Orion’s face.

“Yes, mama, it’s really good.”

“Really?”

“Yes, Auntie, It tastes delicious,”  Not only did Elena prepare some porridge for Orion, but he also noticed that the porridge had a bit of herbs with rejuvenating effects mixed into the porridge.

He also tasted a bit of mashed nuts and seeds in the porridge, with each of them having an effect on his body that made him feel more healthy.

“I’m glad you liked it sweetie, and there’s extra if you want more as well,” Elena smiled gratefully, thankful that her little nephew loved the porridge.

She pointed to the other foods she arranged for Orion to eat which included a fruit salad in one bowl with elven bread and milk in a separate bowl.

The elven milk was a special milk substitute made mainly from the nectar of a special flower.

The milk was extremely good and it was a good milk substitute for baby elves who had just stopped breastfeeding.

Orion, Elena, and Evelyn ate till they were all satisfied and the moment they were done eating, Evelyn turned to Orion to ask.

“So, baby, are you ready to know about why you suddenly grew so fast overnight?”
