Bionic Elements

Under the faint glow of the cave's entrance, the group huddled together, their voices low yet earnest as they contemplated their next moves. The night had slipped away, leaving them with the weight of these new encounters hanging in the air.

Ayra's grateful eyes found refuge in the flickering flames of the bonfire. "I can't express how grateful I am, Sister," she said, her voice trembling with emotion. "If you and your son hadn't arrived when you did, I dread to think what might have happened."

Gundo, the mother of Garnt, offered a faint smile, her face illuminated by the dancing firelight. "We couldn't just leave you there," she replied softly. "We're all in this together now."

Ayra's eyes glistened with unshed tears. "You've always been the brave one," she murmured, her gaze shifting to the young girl nestled behind her, her eyes wide with fear.

Little Kara, her trembling hands clutching at Ayra's chiselled abdomen, looked up with a mixture of gratitude and fear. Her voice quivered as she questioned, "Mother, who are they?"

"She is my sister, just like your brother," Ayra pointed at the baby and explained things to her daughter. Garnt was easily able to tell that she was a shy girl seeing her behaviour, but he didn't expect this little girl to fully ignore him.

"Gundo, I don't want to bother you with our kids. If you want we can move to another cave, it will be hard for all of us to stay in the same cave with my son crying in the middle of the night." Ayra said unwillingly knowing that Gundo or Garnt wouldn't agree with her and just like she expected both fo them looked at her with angry looks.

"I already told you, aunt. We are a family now, there's no reason for us to consider you or your son as a burden, stay here with us or do you want to leave since you don't want to do that?" Garnt questioned, but Ayra quickly shook her head showing that wasn't the case.

"Then, don't act like we are strangers. From now on, we are going to work together and make a better place for all of us, I need your help to do that,"

Ayra looked at her sister as soon as she heard Garnt's words. She only had one question in her mind, that she wanted answers from.

"Sister, I have to see your son is not normal at all. He acts nothing like his age, and he saved me so many times today. I don't even know how he does all of this despite being ten years old,"

Gundo couldn't help but laugh hearing those words. Kara, who was supposed to be hiding also looked at her big brother clearly and she felt he was special just by looking at his behaviour.

"These wood vessels, bone daggers, this fire, Garnt created all of this. I'm blessed to have a child so intelligent and smart, it's almost like he had been blessed by our mother nature,"

Garnt was blushing to hear their compliments, so he decided to quickly change the topic. "Aunt, how old is she? And how old are you? What about my mother?"

It was a simple question, but none of them had answers. Garnt quickly realized they were not supposed to be counting the numbers unlike in Eva's world and realized he was being influenced by her memory. He didn't dislike all this new information, but at the same time, he felt superior to everyone in the cave simply because of this same knowledge.

"Eva, do you have a way to count their ages like what you showed me? I want to know how old these girls are,"

[Just in time. I was about to tell you about the first bionic element. Since you killed two wolves you got so many points as well as some new upgrades.]

Bionic Elements:

>Analyser (2000)- Show the parameters and suitable skills, Able to guess the age

>Locked

>Locked

>Locked

>Locked

A new screen popped out in front of Garnt, which showed some new items called bionic elements. He had no idea what it meant, but still seeing the item he wanted, he didn't even bother to ask about the details.

"How many points do I have? After killing two wolves, I should have a great amount of points right?"

[Yes. To be honest, I didn't expect you to kill wolves this early. Since they are tertiary consumers, you got 5000 points each, so in total you have more than 10000 now.]

"That's so good, I can use my points without worrying about many things then," Garnt said excited about the development.

[No. You should carefully use them. Since you killed wolves now, you will get fewer points when you kill them again. Someday you might reach a stage where you won't be able to get points by killing them. So you should collect points now for the Bionic Elements. Honestly, they are the most important items for you, more than blueprints.]

[Also buy these new blueprints, you're going to work on them for the rest of your time until you build the basics for a settlement.]

Blueprints:

Remaining points: 12100

>Wheels (1000)

>Clothes made with animals (400)

>Ropes & Fibrous Twines (300)

"Fine, It is going to be busy from now on, but before that-" He said and used his analyser skill that Eva activated on his orders and looked at his mother and the rest of the girls, so he could have a vague idea about their age.

"What about me? My points are also low compared to these," Garnt asked confused, but he knew he was stronger than what the system told.

[That's exactly why I said, sometimes numbers are not accurate. You have my help and also you started improving your body recently, so of course, your parameters would increase. Don't worry, let's do some training and you will surpass your aunt easily.]

Garnt was happy to see everyone having somewhat better numbers than him but he knew from now on, it would only increase under his leadership, so he decided to end the day and go to sleep after washing his body.
