wake up.

after 3 days and returning to the town of Drekkison in Frozland Svínakjöt had a pale face, as he walked from one side to the other waiting for the answer of the master who was in town and now was attending Haikko in the Great Chief House.

in front of him he had a woman of about 40 years of robust complexion with broad hips and arms, only to see the wooden roller in her hand, he started to tremble, even worse when he heard the voice with anger from her.

'' Do you know what your error is Svínakjöt? ''

'' ... this, I should not have told him ... about those stories, no? ''

'' snort, just that? Who do you think he learned all his bad manners? you know well that the Great Chief tries to educate him so that he is a successful trader and merchant, so he does not have to go out to sea to fight for a couple of gold coins like the ancestors! "

'' ... ''

Svínakjöt could not answer to the logic of the woman, Heikko was the second son of the Great Chief so he could not inherit the lands, and with it, Heikko would have to go out and seek life in the foreign lands beyond the island where they lived when he was an adult.

even so, Ivenka seemed not to give him time to think about an answer, as she continued to give him a chat with a more severe tone.

''Look at you! You can not even take a bath for weeks, walking around on the high seas! If it were not for the Great Chief being soft on you, he would not even let you come back here to trade for food and weapons, do you like being dirty like southerners without bathing for months? and the worst of all is that now you involve Heikko in all of it! "

'' ... ''

Svínakjöt could not find where to put his head even when assaulting villages of defenseless civilians was a beast, in front of this middle-aged woman, he was totally subdued.

'' snort, now you remain silent! So it should be before your mouth gets you into these problems! "

'' but it's not my fault that Heikko got on my boat ... besides, I also lost 2 men for rescue him..., Ivenka you can not blame me for everything ... ''

Svínakjöt tried to give an answer but every time his voice was weaker since he knew Ivenka he had been very afraid of her, not only because she was his eldest but she was in charge of the house of the Great Chief and besides that, because she was a warrior of Black Iron Perfect!

'' How many times have I told you not to distract him from his studies with the Master?! always with your stories of exploits on the high seas, the chronicles of your thousands of ancestors!, the era in which men went out and got what they wanted from the continent for a long time that has passed! Everything you say now is nothing more than dreams do you hear me!? ''

Ivenka was already screaming and squeezing the roller that she had in her hand with great force, he could hear how the wood crunches on the roller.

in that a man came out of the room where Heikko rested, this was a man with light hair with some gray hairs and about 50 years old, wearing a gray tunic but looked pretty clean, seeing him leave both silents waiting for his diagnosis.

This man was the Maestre Jordian who was the counselor and educator that the Great Chief had hired on the northern lands of the Central Continent in the kingdom of Norge, at age 50 he was recognized in the small circles of scholar's and had a good general knowledge of medicine, sometimes he has to work as a therapist.

when seeing that both people in front of him waited for his diagnosis this began to speak with a light tone.

'' The boy is fine, just a little light fever on the body, it's lucky he did not have a bad spirit that made his stomach sick if so he would not open the whole trip back to home ''

Diseases used to be attributed to bad spirits even if they knew the causes of these and some remedies, one could say that medical knowledge was more than just a little backward.

When Ivenka heard this she sighed in relief, although the fact that Heikko still did not wake up had her something worried, the master had not yet said any method for it, so she went ahead to ask the master Jordian.

'' Master Jordian, but how much longer will he remain in that state? Is it that he did not wake up? ... "

Svínakjöt on hearing Ivenka say this he could only sweat cold, even when Heikko was a second child it was well known that he was the most beloved of the Great Chief children, mostly because of his great resemblance to his mother, light blond hair almost silver and his gray-green eyes were the living image of her, while the eldest son had inherited his father's strong physique and lustrous black hair and even the youngest sister had black hair and had only inherited the eyes of her mother.

"As I say, the boy is fine and could wake up at any time, according to the words of Svínakjöt the boy woke up by episodes during the trip back is not it?"

Svínakjöt upon hearing his name nod quickly.

''so is! he woke up something strange, babbled incoherencies and barely ate and shit and went back to sleep, I even thought he was possessed but ... ''

''possessed? enough with your blunders! To say that the son of the Great Chief is possessed is not a joke, if he is sick is because of you! "

Ivenka interrupted Svínakjöt who made his own conclusions, besides accusing someone of possession was a serious crime, perhaps not here but in the south, those who were possessed or who doubted that they were possessed were burned in a pyre!.

When Ivenka and Svínakjöt could not stop fighting, Master Jurdien interrupted them so he continue with his diagnosis.

'' As I was saying, he can return at any time, I know him well enough to say that if he is possessed or not, so what I will judge later, I have been teaching him for 4 years since he was 8 years old, I know that even though he has a rogue behavior, he is not a bad boy, the looting of the village on that island must have affected him, and he even took a man's life, making the problems worse. "

'' a man must ... ''

Svínakjöt was just going to say a few words about a man from the north having to deal with taking lives from an early age, but the penetrating gaze of the two people in front of him stopped him in his tracks.

'' Let's leave this for today and let's hope the boy is well before the Great Chief returns ... but I'm afraid Svínakjöt will have to go to the green lands of the east if the boy continues sick after his return... ''

'' Haha for me it would not be bad for this shitty boy to learn a lesson in the green lands! ''

when listening to the words of the Master Jordian, Ivenka gloat of the bad luck of Svínakjöt, Svínakjöt felt the legs falter for a moment because inside the legends the only place that was totally true and within reach of their hands was the green lands of East , but unlike his name, it was a white hell that you could lose your limbs little by little and you would not notice and that was the happiest end in that place.

the lands known as Greenland were the nightmare of any sailor or outlanders that existed in the north.

With slow pace Svínakjöt left the main building of the town after he goes out the Master Jordian also goes out and only Ivenka stayed, she who was the one in charge of the duties in the place os the residence, although the main residence was inside the walls of the Fortress, the liberties in the town were quite loose and had free access to the area of residence within the walls for the central personal of the Great Chief.

You could not say that the place was a castle rather it was a walled community center because the population was just over 5,000 people.

...

Bai Long did not know much about what happened, during these 3 days he had processed the 12 years of life Heikko had experienced, he could not deny that this was not his original world, his ethnicity was different and that was more than enough to check it.

although this was already a big shock for him, there was still the fact that he had killed a man with his own hands, previously the bloodiest thing he had ever seen in his life was as a peddler in Beijing twisted the neck of a chicken to immediately prepare it for him.

there was simply no point of comparison, and with all this one could say that he himself refused to accept the reality that he had in front of him and that was rubbing his face.

When he opened his eyes with some difficulty, his first impression was of how weak his body was and the softness of the sheepskins that covered him.

They still had a bit of animal scent but even so, the smell of lavender almost completely disappeared the animal scent.

'' Ugh, where I am ... ''

resting Heikko looked around, there was not much light but on the roof, there was an open window which let in a bit of sunlight although it seemed that there was not too much sunlight in this place.

'' True! ..., sigh, so everything is true, occupy the body of this child, not only that but now I have all his memories and besides that ... now I am Heikko ... ''

Even though he was a 12-year-old boy who was just beginning to mature, and who had physical traits that could be considered feminine, the look of bewilderment and abandonment was not something that someone of his age could give.

he recognized himself as Heikko, it was the only way he could accept his current situation and try to fit in with this strange world that even though it was similar to his own it seemed that it was completely different at the same time, some creatures that were believed to be Only a question of folklore on earth here really existed.

'' Now that ... what's next? hehe, as far as I can remember this place is still in the feudal era, maybe even in the tribal era, my knowledge in production engineering did not play an immediate fundamental role that helps me... even less being 12 years old! ''

Heikko could only throw himself back to bed and not want to do anything for a while, even so he had to get up and adapt as soon as possible to this place, since he knew well that the father of this body would return from the Congress in a few days with his sister, aunt and who was even worse with her older brother!

each of them was a challenge in itself and if he did not convince them that he was still the same person things would end badly.

'' ugh just thinking about having to fool the boy's family ... although technically I'm still me, right? Did I become a bad spirit? hehe, that's too complicated for me ... ''

'' Growl ''

just when he was talking to himself with some sarcasm and laziness, a noise coming from his stomach.

'' agh, I could not stand more dry meat from the boat! just to remember that dried meat and black rye bread ... ''

'' grorrrw ''

his stomach again recriminated him to feed him, so he had to get up to find something to take to the stomach.

He got up a little loose of the bed, his body was something shabby, thin and delicate, he could remember the original boy was a very poor appetite so he did not have much meat in his bones.

with 1.52 m of height, one could say that he as someone tall for his age and more in the middle age that height could vary tremendously, at least in the south there used to be civilians who did not even reach 1.60m in adulthood.

Heikko could only touch his stomach and walk to the only door there was, the room had a solid rock wall so it could see that the family was quite wealthy.

'At least I do not have to be reborn in the body of a slave if so I would be better dead, my situation is actually surprisingly good!'

Heikko had to admit that of all the tragedies at least this seemed to be more of a blessing.

coming to the door, finally he opened it, when doing this the light from the other side assaulted him because this had windows that gave a better illumination, the difference of light made him squint his eyes, but he could quickly differentiate a plump shape that was sitting in front of his door a couple of steps away, from the memories of the boy he could recognize her, she was the attendant of the house.

'' Ivenka... ''

'' ... ''

With a weak tone but with total naturalness, the woman's name escaped from his lips without him even noticing.

the woman barely heard her name, she opened her eyes and when she saw the young man with clear blond hair almost let out a shout of joy.

'' Young master! You do not know how worried I was! "

'' ah ... ah !! ''

Ivenka pounced on him and hugged him tightly pressing him against her huge and robust chest that covered the entire face of Heikko, you could certainly say that she was a beauty in her youth but... well, the modern aesthetic senses would not fit with her robustness and healthy body.
