Knowing that after 2 weeks I will have my first interactions with new people I tried to fix my grammar as much as I can. I don't want to create awkward situations again especially after my first try when I asked them to play in the garden. So I repated the good mannered words from my past world after translating them to human god tongue.
'No need to screw up too. Rudeus!' I remembered myself especially remembering the bad interaction with mom and dad made them think I will leave the house.
Also Paul cutted my contraction of reading Perigruies's book with the magic book trying to figure out summoning magic with just mentioning it. And for the 100th time since he discovered I have a conscious. he gave me advice about women but this time gave me the advice by different approach than usual.
"You know Rudi, the adventures I have around the world as an adventurer were fun and enjoyable." Said the blonde swordsman trying to gain my attention. (And he got it by a bullseye).
When he saw me leaving the book looking at his side he continued. "And as a swordsman you enjoy the wind swing and in the midst of battle. You feel the wind in your head like you are flying. Like you are free." (That's awesome but he usually talks about women, is he finally realised it is to early for this advice and won't say anything about it, today?).
"There you can find the perfect women and an enjoyable life. My only advice if you ever find your way to the Berrigriet continent, be warned of succubus; they are Greyrat's natural enemy." (And here it's the advice I was waiting for).
'Do I solve things myself or wait for someone to solve it for me. Will he drop the subject himself or finally yield to mom scolding him.' I wandered to solve this problem with Paul. Finally deciding to leave him be anyway.
After that when Paul found me nodding without caring about the last part and continued reading he sighed in resignation and left me alone. Before he left he looked at my side and reminded me that after 14 days he will start training me in Sword because my second year will be then.
Also when I asked them about my birthday they told me it is still 3 years early. They explained to me in this world you get birthday celebrations every five years but they are extravagant compared to normal birthdays. (Well at least they hadn't forgotten my birthday at least, and if course he just said it's the usually the biggest celebration they can offer not saying compared to the normal).
I also failed to gather any information in healing magic other than healing and detoxify. In attack magic I memorised all intermediate spells but I will try them in the garden when I'm 3 at least. Also after some thinking I preferred shooting toward an empty field from above it. With this my chances of hitting someone is almost 0%.
I plan to tell my parents after I finished all intermediate class spells. To ask them for proper teaching in all schools. Now I think about it I'm really turning into one of this world residents by pursuing greater heights in strength. All I wanted when I was young was to be healthy.
Also I'm in between rocks in some of my decisions especially since I want to explore the whole world as soon as possible. And at the same time I don't want to leave my family behind. And I can't imagine myself persuading my family to leave this peaceful place to join me exploring the world. And I can't see myself leave my family behind especially my last family died when when I was young. (Well dad was defective after being semi-paralysed and lost legs too before he died).
I will leave this problem for older Rudeus to solve. And went to have dinner with mom, dad and Lilla where mom as usual tried with me with millis faith especially because I can't stop my habit of praying to god of past life and strangely it's the same as millis religion pray. (Is Millis creator was someone reincarnated as me)
As usual all the members of the house sigh at the same time. (It becomes a normal occasion in the family dinner because of the daily repetitive events).
With 2 weeks of repetitive daily occurrences finally I'm two years-old my family proved it by finding better breakfast prepared on the table. Also my body strangely increased my limit of using mana in one go. Out of nowhere I realised it by now I can both summon 5 molecules of waters one per finger and the gravity magic limit has increased to the ability to lift a small book. 'The three swordsmen and labyrinth' if anything I took it for 2 reasons I know dad is going to explain to me the swordsmanship. I took it to see if he was going to explain anything new when we started sword training.
To my disappointment dad's training today didn't include sword until later parts. He started by making me make 5 laps around the house then, 10 push-ups then, 10 sit-up then, jump and shake till I can no longer continue after that. He started theoretical explanation where he didn't add any new information to my knowledge except he showcased again cutting the large stone with wooden sword called it swordsman institute. And told me to do the same when he said I unintentionally said this.
"Huh?"
"Do swoosh like the one I just did Rudi" said Paul like it's the most natural thing in the world. (Is he for real? He is kidding right?)
"Can you explain more please? Daddy!"
"Take your sword and launch and swoosh like this." Said dad after doing the same move again without explaining. But, this time I focused on his footwork in hopes of being able to copy him.
I stand up and copied his stance first right leg in front the sword next to the waist and use my left foot for push and use the sword I hit the stone as strong as I could to my surprise it did a very small crack on the rock but the sword had been cut into two pieces and my hand vibrated to much that I think I may fractured my arm.
"Not like this Rudi you idiot, don't do swash like that, do swoosh like this." Dad ignored me as usual where I tried to ask for time out and he didn't even see me talking.
After intense training with 0 experience teacher. He finished it with a smile and carried me inside. Because I don't think I can move a single muscle in my body. He told my mom who bathed me and put me on bed to take a nap and promised to wake me up at lunch.
Before sleeping I put my hands on my body and doubled overcharged X-Healing and when my muscles stopped the pain a little with gravity magic I moved my legs to help in healing and after 10 minutes.
My muscles stiffness became tolerable decreasing the amount of pain created. So, finally can fall asleep. And for the first time since figuring mana increasing I slept naturally. After this I wake-up with a gentle push to my back. I found mom waking me up then carried me out. While I was still yawning.
"Wake up Rudi if you want to visit the clinic today I will stay there till dinner and I was thinking of taking you with me."
"Okay, Mommy give me 5 more minutes." I said in a sleepy state missing half of the conversation but when I tried to stretch my body the pain woke me up. I groaned in pain and when mom realised that. She was laughing a light chuckle then healed me with healing.
"Thanks, Mommy I'm better now." (I felt gratitude for removing muscle soreness. She somehow had with her healing magic even though it's weaker by a lot but for some reason it heals better and has some warm effect on my body).
After this she put me on the table and we started eating the lunch and like breakfast it has extra rations but it was finished fully and not a single drop was wasted. (I was very hungry and mom used this and fed me happily since today I didn't refuse her tries to feed me. The opposite happened I agreed my body was hurting very much so I just agreed.
After lunch mom took me to the clinic where she took small weeds she planted last month. And the weeds grew immediately. Apparently this weed helps relieve the fevers by being put on soup made for the sick people.
When we reached I found a one story building about 5 minutes walk from home and it was next to the stream and the other side was the wheat fields. (The view is a masterpiece . I really want to run and play inside of it.)
Mom showed me inside the building which has 3 desks (a normal table for everyday use and a chair next to them). And three chairs in front of the wall next to the door and bed in the adjacent wall to it.
Mom put the weeds on the farthest table. Then, asked me to bring some free jars and boxes to fill them with the weeds she brought. And I helped her where after this she kissed my forehead and told me I can play around till someone comes but I refused. (My body is so sore that I'm barely moving. I can't run around yet).
After what appears to be an hour some woman came carrying a child barely older than me. Who apparently made a cut on her hand with a sickle. And mom healed her with normal healing magic. Then kissed the little girl's hand. And with her cheerful demeanor she made the girl forget the pain and smile while she was playing with mom for sometime. Then mom told the woman that's the fee's 5 normal copper coins. (Also mom called the woman by Ms. Smith)
The woman smiled then gave mom the money. And thanked her by bowing her head and mom told her to raise her head then smiled one of her scary smiles then asked the woman if she is free and if she can leave the girl to play with me.
"It will be an honour to miss Zenith, I'm sure Anna will like to play with your son." As much as I want to make new friendships, I feel that the smiling mom has something behind it. (Ugh. I will leave it be).
"Good afternoon Mrs Smith. I'm Rudeus Greyrat. It will be my pleasure to make your acquaintance." I said the coping mom stance she greeted people with. When I did, she chucked very loudly and couldn't control herself. (Now what?).
"Pfft. Rudi you tried to copy my etiquette. But this greeting is for women." When she finished I felt my face has become red from embarrassment. And when she finished Mrs Smith laughed about it too.
"Hey! It's not funny at all." When I said after being stuttered and frustrated, even Anna laughed and forgot her pain entirely and they didn't stop after 5 minutes where mom had to dry many happy tears. Needless to say I pouted and took a side and almost cried. (They embarrassed me too much).
The first to stop was Anna who tried to break the mood by playing with me and we played until dinner time. (I tried to forget the embarrassment that happened before).
After that mom had a big smile on her face when returned telling dad and Lilla about what happened. I tried to copy her greeting way. Which appears to be how noble women are supposed to greet this way.
When I almost cried again Lilla felt sympathy for me and offered to teach me etiquette when I grew up a little bit at least after my first birthday. But I asked her anyway how the men greet and she showed me how noblemen greet.
I was supposed to make a half arc with my left foot put behind the right one. At the same time put my left hand on my right chest and then bow my head slightly to nobility lower than me and in the same level a little lower and to higher nobility and make halfway bow to royalty.
(I don't like how people bow their heads easily in this world and they tell me the commoner usually makes a full kneel and even lower bows like always).
After finishing with Lilla I felt sleepy and went straight to bed after it for the first time using the new privilege I summoned 25 water molecules from my right hand, 20 from my left and 1 from each foot. (I unintentionally made my right hand stronger than the left hand in magic). After one and half minute I felt like I couldn't stay awake any longer and I fell asleep.
