Chapter 6 °•○● First Night Under the Stars

Eren heard the feminine voice in his head announcing the completion of a quest.

[Ding! Trivial Quest 3 / 9999: Basic Resource Control completed.

Eren and Yana walked into the stone house together and headed towards the cabinet that Eren had previously took his cloths. In front of Yana's astonished eyes, he called out a part of the reward, which was two large sheet of papers, one knife and two pieces of logs.

Before taking out the remaining rewards, he called out Anais and Matyev.

Matyev was out of breath from running a little. Anais, on the other hand, was looking down at the ground for a reason that even Eren misunderstood. Her hands were constantly tugging at her long dress. She didn't seem very comfortable. Seeing the actions of Anais, he thought that she was ashamed and punished well.

"I don't think she'll ever make the mistake of not following my orders again. Or she will. Huhuhu. It actually works for me either way."

But Yana was the worst. Having difficulty speaking, the girl looked at Eren and then at the stone house behind her. She couldn't understand the magic her master showed just a minute ago.

When Eren looked at them he remembered once again. He was stuck with three of the strangest elves that hadn't even been seen in the Hollybood movies.

Eren raised both of his hands as if he was doing something very important and sacred.

"I should show them what you I'm capable of without revealing everything. If their loyalty to me is not 100%, it would be good for them to feel admiration and fear towards me in this way."

After what happened with Anais, he knew there were other things that could increase their loyalty. For example he could pumper Anais's loyalty with an erotic master-slave relationship or other r18 approaches. But he also needed to secure the obedience of Yana and Matyev in the future. This action would be beneficial for all.

Although he was going to make moves that normally would make him cringe, it was necessary for the future to do so. If Nilu's mission was as he expected, he would bring others here as well.

He opened his mouth and said whatever came to his mind at that moment.

"The God of Brave Warriors and the sacred Night, HEY LILU! BLESS YOUR BELIEVERS WITH YOUR GIFTS!"

Eren briefly gave the impression that these quest rewards were sent by a god using a few words. This way, he could attribute all the information he had from Earth or all the weird stuff related to system to a mystical god in the future.

Same as happened in the stone house, a small vibration mixed with light appeared in the air about two meters above the grass.

It contained all the colors of the rainbow and more. But it appeared and disappeared so quickly that no one could understand if it was a kind of portal or something else.

Rewards didn't drop with gravity but floated in a slow motion.

"Liquid Summoning Claims" were in the shape of papers. But unlike big blank papers from before, these were tiny and really thick. Papers were both blue. There was nothing on them except a droplet symbol. They looked like thick and dirty parchment. The other two "Animal Summoning Claims had two bone symbols on each.

"Bones...an odd way of thinking, system. I have to give you credit. You are quite creative."

As the small pieces of paper and logs that appeared out of nowhere descended slowly to the ground, Eren was extremely excited.

His testosterone level increased from spending intimate moments with a sexy elf, as well as the seeing the power of the system that capable of giving something out of nothing. Even one of both was enough to accelerate his heart rate.

All the hesitation and ethical considerations from his old world vanished as soon as he took hold of the parchments. His eyes were now truly hard, filled with ferocity. The dreams of what he wanted to do in his new life began to take shape inside his head.

For the first time, he wasn't thinking about what he should do, but what he definitely wanted to do. Eren had already made a plan for the rewards. He could ask for big animals with more flesh and wool. But it would create too much hassle or labor.

"I want two wild rabbits and two liters of clean drinking water." Before he even finished his sentence, his command caused four parchments to burst into flames and vanish instantly, leaving no trace behind.

In the spot where the papers vanished, a small vibration occurred in the air and two rabbits and two jugs of water materialized from the light. The rabbits weren't chubby, they were long and lean with big ears and brown fur, not looking so cute. The water was in two ugly clay jugs.

"Holy Jack the Samurai! Stingy system, if you gave me plastic containers, things would be so much easier! But still, I love ya!"

Eren smiled slightly as he spoke sentences that he would never have thought in his previous life on Earth. Being happy was an incredible luxury and blessing.

But when he noticed that the rabbits on the ground were moving away, he shouted.

"Jumpin' Dinosaurs! Catch those rabbits right now!"

Three elves still stared at him in disbelief and didn't move, causing Eren's smile to disappear.

"Our dinner is quickly running away. If y'all can't catch them, we'll have no dinner tomorrow!"

In the next few minutes, Eren watched as three elves tried to catch two rabbits. Occasionally, he shook his head and sighed.

His eyes would sometimes wander over to Anais, and unintentionally, he looked at Yana a couple of times. Yana's breasts were even bigger than her sister's, and they were quite noticeable as they bounced around.

After a few minutes, when the two girls almost caught a rabbit each, Matyev, who was chasing after them, fell to the ground.

Eren went over to the young and frail-looking Matyev, who seemed younger than even Yana, and nudged him with his foot a couple of times. When he realized that Matyev was not dead, just unconscious, he sat down beside the innocent elf. Despite being 28-29 years old, Matvey looked younger than Yana, with similar facial features to his siblings.

"He's either sick or has some other problems."

Finally, when the rabbits were caught, and Matyev woke up, the sun was about to set. Although Eren looked at the elves with high expectations, he learned that none of them knew how to kill animals or cook a wild meal.

"I'll try it myself, and you guys will help me. And in the future, everyone must get their hands dirty to be able to do what I do!"

Eren's orders were clear. If they were going to survive here and build a better life in the future, everyone had to learn to do something.

Although he had some reservations, he had already lived for 80 years. Killing two rabbits wasn't too difficult for him. He knew he had to drain the rabbits' blood completely by slitting their throats.

He took a deep breath before making the first blow with the knife. Then, without waiting, he abruptly slit the throats of the rabbits. Thinking too much would cause trouble in this kind of work. Acting quickly reduced the uncomfortable feelings.

Eren widened the cuts on their necks and gave one bunny to each of the girls. Matyev didn't look well. Since he looked like he might faint again at any moment, Eren didn't give him a bloody task for now.

While the rabbits' blood was flowing, he poured one of the water jugs into a wooden barrel for cleaning the meat and kept the other for drinking.

Using the twigs they found around and one log that came as a task reward, they lit a little fire.

Finally, when all the blood had drained, and the skins were removed, it was already dark. The slightly cool air made them all move closer to the fire and sit in front of the stone house. The warmth of the fire was so sweet that the smell of smoke didn't bother them at all.

Eren made a simple kebab with the sticks he found and by tearing apart the rabbits in tiny pieces. While three elves watched him with fascination, he was trying his best not to give up.

Hunger and excitement of his new life made him finish this bloody job.

When everything was finally over, the smell of the cooked meat was wonderful. But despite the efforts of Eren's efforts, it was difficult to eat the strange-smelling rabbit meat. None of them, including Eren, were satisfied no matter how hungry they were.

When the first rabbit was completely finished, the burning fire from had already shrunk and were close to disappearing.

Despite being hungry, the food didn't taste good. Despite being sleepy, they weren't ready to sleep. Although they were afraid of the darkness of the night and the dwindling fire, no one had the courage to confess their feelings. It was a strange moment.

With the exception of Eren they were just sitting close to each other, suppressing their fears.

Eren threw the next reward log into the dying fire. He straightened the coals with his stick and put the meat of the second rabbit on top of the fire.

One rabbit was not big enough to feed four people, and the second rabbit would only satisfy them for a moment. They needed something spicy, vegetable or bread-like food to completely satisfy their hunger. Meat alone was not a suitable type of food for such a living space.

"Shall I tell you a story?" Finally, Eren got the attention of the three elves. While dealing with the fire and food, he showed them the sky.

"Do you know what those things you see every night?"

Matyev replied hesitantly. "Other worlds..."

Eren shook his head and sighed.

"Each beam of light you see actually represents a star. And each star..." Eren spent the next hour giving the three elf slaves a basic astronomy and space lesson. These were simple and cliché knowledge from his old life. But for creatures like elves who were distant from science and had limited memory, what he told them was fascinating!

Apart from talking Eren was meditating from time to time and wondering where he was, using what he knew scientifically. There was no moon in the sky. But some of the stars, which would normally be tiny points of light, were very large. These stars all together radiated even more light than the moon did for Earth.

Also, many more star clusters were visible than usual. Some stars were so close to each other that they were literally painting a small picture.

In short, Eren was sure that he was in a completely different place, unrelated to Earth.

Meanwhile elves calmed down and were satisfied, not because of the food they ate, but because of Eren's story. Like a father, brother or a husband they never remembered, he fascinated them with his calm voice.

When the second rabbit was finished and the fire was about to go out, they went inside the house. Outside wasn't bone freezing or something but it was still chilly without a bonfire.

Stone house was almost warm.

Eren and the four elves lay sideways on top of the bed. Matyev was at the end of the bed, Yana was at the top. Other two in between them. Just minutes later, everyone was asleep and Anais' hand involuntarily grabbed Eren's arm.

The bed was cramped with four elf but they had a great sleep together.
