Birds chirped outside the house but inside a room and beside a bed was a baby-free.
He stare outside the window.it has been two months ever since i woke up here. He thought to himself.
I still don't know where am i he thought while trying to move his hands and feet.
Then hina entered the room she notice free staring out the window "free? Do you want to go out" she asked taking him in her arms.
free look at her .maybe i shpuld go .he turn to her *nod* he gave a faint nod.
"well is it then!" hina beamed.
Sometime later.....
Hina came with free in her arm and she goes down the stairs.
"lady hina. Going somehwere" lina asked from the kitchen expression calm.
"i'm gonna give free his first tour~" hina said as she go out .
Hina walk into the market a black smith hammering a metal echoed, hina walk into the village square and buy some breads and vegetables.
Just then...
"hina! What a coincidence" a old lady yelled at her and tap her shoulder.
"ahh! Elder rael as energetic as always" hina said startled by the earlier yelling.
"yeah!cause there is no back pain today" rael said then she look at the baby in hina's back tied sofly
"is this free? The one philip always brag about" she asked watching free with a warm gaze.
"yeah he is, cute isn't he" hina said smiling proudly as she look back at free .
"well. Philip said 'my son will grow into a fine strong man' " rael said as she acts like philip pointing a stick like a sword to the sky.
"philip is always a meathead bragging And overreacting about things " hina said with a sigh her bread basket hitting the ground.
"well being energetic is always good for mental health!" rael said laughing with hands on her hips.
"yeah, it is" hina said as both laugh while free was bored.
Haaaaah. They are having fun while i am tied back like this.free thought to himself .
Times later.....hina turn right to go home when she stopped.
"let's see your papa too free, might as well ask your meathead papa what he want to eat" she said and turn back and walk to the village center.
At the village office philip was leaning on a wooden chair bored "there is nothing to do atlleast let me have a little spar .why did chief hemire even arrange a meeting!?" philip yelled as he sigh a tired sigh.
Just then.... "philip~" a soft voice came outside the meeting hall it was hina philip quickly got out of the hall.
"hina why are ypu here?" he ask as then his gaze landed on free who was looking at him "ohh!. Free looking bored as always!.
He took free off hina's back "wow, free is a getting heavy in just two months" philip said as he scratch free's cheek.
Why does thus man finger hurting me. Free quickly push the finger away with all the strength a 2 month old could muster.
"look my boy just push his father back, i'm so proud of you" he wipe a imaginary tear off.
"don't try to hurt our son, honey" hina said as she grab philip shoulder with a high strong grip.
"ah-yeah yeah! So stop you will dislocate this perfect body of mine!" philip yelled in pain and hina took free back and she put the basket in philips head.
"okay why was i here again.....oh yeah what do you want in dinner" she ask with a smug grin in her face and free in her arms.
"yeah about that? Steak?no i eat boar daily....hmmm..... Maybe a meat soup with some vegetables" philip added whike his mouth drip water.
"ohh...hina it's been a while" a old voice came a man in white beard step out of the meeting hall it was the village chief-hemire- single, wise, and a kindhearted man who gave place to hina, philip and lina.
"chief hemire. How is harvesting going" hina asked.
"well...ohoh!.. Sorry i am abit sick... Wek if you ask about crops they are not too great this year but if nk storm comes the village won't starve" hemire said while covering his mouth with his hand as he cough again.
"yeah it has to be. if the storm comes the village will starve" she said a bit cornvern but trying to maintain her smile.
"well yeah, of the storms come again we had to protect our precious crop" philip said raising his sword proudly with a smug grin.
"...it will if philip attend the meeting seriously and won't blab about body with other elders" hemire added as he gave philip a side eye .
"w-well i-i have been training so i can protect our crops when storm came" philip added while grinning.
"philip, have you been disturbing the village meetings" hina said as her face darken as she stared at philip who was now visibly sweating.
"wait wait dear i did a few time but i also train to pretect the crops" philip quicklu said taking 4 steps back.
"atleast you should try and rause your mana, philip it is much better than you training" hemire said with a tired face .
Mana?. Free thought the words catching his curiosity of the world.
"CHIEF!....CHIEFFFFFF!" a man yelled as he run toward the chief scared and gasping for air .
"what happen! Why are you scared!" philip ask as he help the man regain his posture.
"o-or-o" the man said words unable to come out .
"or what" hina asked gripping free a bit tighter in her arms.
"ORCS THERE ARE ORCS NEAR THE CROPS!" the yelled catching everyone attention.
Slowly crowds form around the man "orcs at this time!" a woman yelled, scared. "if they crush the crops what will we eat then!" a man said "we were worried about storms and the orcs came" a lady said tear falling off.
"wow wow, everyone listen!" philip said silencing them "listen i and the other will subjugate them as quickly as possible. Hey on where did you saw the orcs" philip ask the man.
"on the west of the village at the wooden river bridge"the man said as he regain his breathe.
"that is corncerning, philip quickly inform the guild and take down the orcs before anything is damaged" hemire said coughing softly.
"yes!" philip said as he turn to hina." Dear, take free and go home, outside isn't safe" philip said completely serious
"b-but honey i can fight too, i am a mage " hina said as she grip free tighter.
"look this isn't about being strong, lina is at home too, go if the orcs reach the village it needs it's protector too" philip said with a faint smile as he grip his sword tighter.
"O-okay" hina said as she turn and left. Slowly everyone left to their home caling their children back.
"TIME FOR SHOWDOWN AND A FEAST" philip said grinning widely
"if you want feast go amd report to the guild, i will prepare a fire for cooking meat" hemire said as he left hand behind his back.
"well now let's go" philip said to himself while stretching his hands up
