21 finished our home

A few days later, our home had finally been completed.

Each room was about an average five meters square, the largest part being the kitchen which was doubled as a dining area totalling seventeen meters square, the bathrooms for the girls fifteen meters, the boy around ten, the front area twelve.

Everything though it is somewhat compact it was cosy each in our colours my rooms were a pale green edged in black, while the boy had a deep purple..the girl a blush pink that was typically a girl colour.

Leaf mats were woven and mattresses were made of skins and stuffed with a scentless type of cotton forming a cushy mattress.

I wished it was sponge, but this will do and making a sturdy bed was kind of useless right now and will only take up room. When I return to society after this I'll just settle for acquiring one to keep in storage.

Not too far sat a small table, on it was a bone vase with a few flowers placed within to make the room look a bit homier.

The tree home was pleasant, and I liked it.

With a smile, I took off my helmet and placed it on the table, locked my door, used a shield just for extra measures and slept.

(shield consumption 0.1% every four hours used)

While I rested for a few days, I woke immediately I pulled out the flask of blood and drank the disgusting thing, downing enough to at least raise my vitality by 2%.

When the system announced it I relaxed by stretching, then stripped and went ahead and showered, slipping from the bath to my room in a robe made from finely knitted spider silk I smiled ah it is nice to be inside once again.

Drying and going through the motions with moisturising my skin and hair, I dressed then pulled my thick hair into a topknot and went outside directly to prepare some food, mostly meat.

When I arrived in the kitchen Cehn was preparing a meal, surprised I caught myself looking at his the sky blue hair.

He was extremely handsome with a heart-shaped face giving his jawline a sharp shape, his chin which had a-

Ffffs, he had a dimple in his chin.

I sighed to myself, quickly looking away. It was good he would not think much of me looking because truthfully my face looked more like it was carved from stone.

Thinking that I should not stare at this boy who was so handsome I wished to jump him, I looked at his hair once more and walked fully into the kitchen.

I had heard that only a selected few had natural sky blue hair, of course, many tried to copy it by using micro colouring, but it was still nothing like the real thing.

The image of those ancient Chinese films immediately came to my mind watching his slightly broad back moving around the kitchen I couldn't help to watch him a little more, soon Wincu walked in distracting me I made a relief sigh, while Wincu with her helmet off as well yawned and took a seat flashing an almost blinding smile at me and greeted.

"Hey Wu Jie," 

"Mmm,"

It a click I to expose my face and took my seat.

"Oh , Wu Jie, you are one of the dark-skinned ones, wow it is so rare to see one like you," 

She walked around me looking at my face and hair; I kept my face neutral, growing annoyed. So this is probably how Cehn Sie would have felt if I had only continued to stare.

" You are so cute, Wu Jie you look even younger than thirty-five, I just want to hug you,'

" If you dare, I will gut you like a chicken,"

" Ah, Wu Jie I am only joking," she blushed smiling, while Cehn turned. He had purple eyes, but they were shaped like peach blossoms, his nose straight, eyebrows almost thin enough straight and somewhat thin.

Did he know women had to get theirs specially plunked to be like that and even add eyebrow liner and concealer to give it a shape exactly like his?

Still, I have to say. The way his brows were shaped, outlined and coloured naturally gave this boy an aloof type look rather than a wuss with those who had such brows and shaped face. My eyes travel to his lips, frowning slightly in disappointment. His lips were small and somewhat thin, but still full enough to give him a slight glimpse of their fullness, similar to a scantily teasing pout. With a heart-shaped face, which gave off the inexact look similar to an elegant beauty, but. I suppose that as he grows older, he will mature to a devastatingly handsome man, Yosh!

I will not use him as a meat shield, I can not waste such perfection.

Not even my four brothers would be able to contest with him.

Frowning slightly at my assessment, I looked at the food on the table, grabbed the chopsticks and took meat placing it in my bowl.

Back home, it was a bit nicer to have all of my food sorted on a large plate with fewer dishes to wash.

Here I had my own bowl and about eight different dishes, though right now we had three.

Some sweet and sour meat, wild stir-fried mushrooms, and sweet buns.

If it was not for the Wu family and mother, I would have suffered so much. I've never left my island back on earth and though I was extremely open-minded with knowledge and such from customers that visited the club and during my time relaxing would converse about many things, I still am clueless somewhat.

As I ate, I thought of the coming storm. We were even down to about three suits now, sigh and our helmets needed to be replaced with scales and bone. That will be hard, but at least our vital areas will be somewhat protected.

"A few days ago; some other combatants died among the grass but a few, made it through. We are down to about six hundred." Wincu said softly.

"Well, perhaps we will be able to survive then and be able to enter the school fully," 

"Mmm," Cehn said, while finishing off his bowl of rice, I sipped the slightly bitter tea and gazed off.
