The Last Primal Chapter 403

"[Orc] Young Master!" Seeing Aiden falling on his knees, Roas worriedly cried out and rushed to his side. His tall and muscular frame cast a wide shadow, towering over the kneeling and heavily heaving youth.
"[Orc] Young Master!" Roas exclaimed worriedly again as he leaned down. "Are you alright?"
"[Goblin] What happened, Young Master? The world… changed!" A second later the ex-goblin chieftain, Glohn arrived at his left and leaned down.
"[Orc] I… I am fine, don't worry guys." Aiden responded, the honest worry and concern he could see in his servant's gazes warmed his heart. Slowly, as he felt the strength return to his body, he pushed himself off from the ground, and with the help of the two giant 'babies', he stood back up.
"[Orc] What happened, Young Master? The area around Gupta… Look! It changed!"
Roas's words finally caused Aiden to relax and to even burst into a light-hearted chuckle, which earned a confused look from the dark-gray-toned giant.
"[Orc] That's just me experimenting with the power I mentioned to you all before. I told you that I can make changes to this world, as I am something like the assigned…" He thought about how best to phrase the term 'administrator', other than using that 'G' word.
In the end, he didn't need to, as Roas, Glohn and even Gob nodded with understanding.
"[Orc] Don't worry Young Master, we understand!"
"[Goblin] Yes, don't forget, we all have it!" Glohn added.
"[Goblin] We can feel your true thoughts through the mental link!" Gob was the one that finally made some sense, making Aiden to be reminded once again, that unless he deliberately acted on it and closed the link down, they would all share this magical or to be more exact, mysterious mental channel.
"[Orc] Ah, that's fine then." Aiden nodded with understanding, the calm, gentle smile slowly returning and replacing his exasperated look as his stamina gradually returned. "Sorry about this… It seems that using these… ehrm, powers, takes more out of me than I expected." He explained, checking his inner energy reserves at the same time. Strangely, despite him feeling rather low on energy, his [Soul Power] haven't changed a bit, it was at top condition. According to the system's status screen, he was in top condition, yet he was feeling tired, rather spent even.

'What is going on? Why am I so… spent…' Noticing the state of his clothing, he frowned as he added. '…and so drenched in sweat?'
Although the question could be also remarked as a rhetorical one, Enya's mature voice rang in his mind not even a moment later.
'[It's because you have just awakened some of your previously dormant Primal Heritage. The divinity obviously is not something a mere mortal constitution could handle with ease, it took every fiber of your body working against it lest the divine light would destroy your body from the inside out.]'
Her words caused some worry to flash through Aiden's mind. Would he be risking his life every time he would want to exercise and train this new skill of his?
As usual, his worry was translated to Enya who came with her reassuring words almost instantly. Also, unlike before, her tone was, once again much more life-like, carrying a variety of emotions, but most important concern and… what seemed to be some sort of closeness, a warmth that made Aiden rather confused. It was similar he felt towards his family, Granny, Lily, and to even Master, Number 3: Familial Love…
'[Don't bother too much about it, Aiden. Just make sure you are ready the next time you wish to use this power. As you continuously train your body with it and bathe in the holy light, your mortal shell will also slowly transform… it will evolve naturally to grow accustomed to it. Also…]' Her voice trailed off at the end, but before her presence was forcefully pulled back, she exclaimed.
'[Remember, your task! The… shrines!]'
Her voice was strangely distant as if she was further and further away. By the end, her voice was barely audible, before her entire presence vanished once again in the depth of his own soul space.
Aiden could only bitterly sigh, and calm himself down. This wasn't anything new, he already realized that there seemed to be certain… boundaries set that seemingly caged the guide to a set of rules she just cannot cross. Whenever she was about to overstep what she was allowed to say or react, she would always be pulled away, and 'fixed up'.

Still, the emotions she has shown made Aiden think about his time once again. The echo of his true father's soul the memories he has gained through the whole ordeal… Could Enya be…?
Thinking about his father's soul, without thinking too much about it, he subconsciously navigated through the system's interface to his Inventory space to take a look at the egg that should also house him as well.
He looked for a couple of brief moments at the golden egg seemingly frozen in time and space, before he sighed one last time and turned to look at his boys with the returning coolness.
"[Orc] As you can see…" He glanced over at the distant lake before slowly his eyes wandered over to the black smoke-covered mountain range at the other side. "…I have made some modifications to the surrounding terrain. Hopefully, these will make sure that some of the problems you listed would be resolved."
"[Goblin] Young Master! You perhaps, made all of these… for the farms?" Glohn being the most worldly of the three, had some vague idea of what might have been the idea. With a wondrous, contemplating gaze he focused on the large body of the lake.
Surprised by Brother Glohn's words, Roas attention also shifted towards the lake. His eyebrows creased as he was deep in thought, trying his absolute best to think of what the reasoning behind such peculiar changes could have been. Still, he wasn't as wisened as the elderly ex-goblin chieftain. Despite his magical knowledge, he was after all leading a hunting/warrior tribe far away from any civilization at the time. He had no hope of coming to the same conclusion as him.
Surprisingly, Gob was the one that, retained his calm disposure as his eyes swiftly swayed between the two new sensations. A few moments later, he voiced his thoughts.
"[Goblin] Young master, did you perhaps… made these so that the farm fields would experience some rains?"
An appreciative, surprised smile appeared over Aiden's face as he turned his attention to the youngest of the three.
"[Goblin] Oh? What makes you say that? Please explain to your elders here so they could also learn."
Suddenly, Gob's expression shifted from one of deep thought to an embarrassed, thin smile. He lowered his shoulders and slouched them down, before taking a hesitant step behind, trying to hide away, but couldn't really do so.
Seeing his reaction, Aiden almost burst into laughter, he could barely contain himself. 'These two… Gob and Galina are so similar it's shocking. Did I perhaps pick up a real brother and sister back then?' He wondered, making sure that he kept his calm smile on the outside.
"[Goblin] Don't be afraid, Gob. What you said is correct, I just want you to explain how you came to this conclusion. Roas and even your elder, Glohn could also learn from it!"

Tales of the Legendary Scholar
They meet in the most unlikely moment and turned their life around. Freidrech newly arrived in his own nation's capital city, which is so foreign to him compared to his village's idyllic and nondiscriminatory atmosphere, after he is forced to come. Now, he is facing a royal prince and tells him to bow. This draws out one of his late father's teachings from the deepest recesses in his mind. "The blood of your great ancestors runs in your veins. Don't easily bow down to anyone, or accept suppression by any being, not even from a monarch, unless you pledge your allegiance to him. Also, giving in to oppression is directly telling the oppressor that you're easy prey and open for manipulation." He is uncertain on how to face this oppression right now. Will he bows or not? What will he do to uphold his father's words while keeping his life safe? As for the prince, Theodrech has nothing to do with Freidrech, so he wishes to let this slip, but the boy opens his mouth and proposes the most ludicrous challenge he ever heard and triggers his curiosity. "I, Freidrech Goederf Gerboud, son of the late Village Chief Louvel Gerboud of Wrilon, will challenge you, Your Highness, to a battle of riddles… If you win, I will not only bow but be your servant for the rest of my life." This amuses the prince. It is the first he met a boy of the same age who is not intimidated by the air of authority he projects. Rather, this boy challenges him. "Why are you so headstrong? In fact, bowing to me is an honor. You saw the King's noble Knights. When they saw me, they bowed," says Theodrech, testing Freidrech. "Allow me to be forward, Your Highness. For me, bowing to a monarch does not guarantee loyalty. If I were you, I rather have men who stand straight in my presence but who got my back, than bowing men who are dreaming of my death," replies Freidrech. The prince’s curiosity increases. A huge smile is seen on his face. Prince Theodrech decides to take Freidrech under his wing. Little did they know, this boy who Prince Theodrech takes in as his confidant and friend in the most ridiculous fashion is someone indispensable in his life and the one who can help him succeed the throne when he almost believes he has lost. Thus, the Tales of the Legendary Scholar begins. ------ o ------ Old Synopsis: A famous ancient adage stated, behind a successful man is a woman BUT… In these lands, the monarchs are seeking not a woman to stand behind them but the man hailed as the Legendary Scholar.

Maitbudi
Fermboi was a man of one ideal: make the weak strong. When his rebellion against the king proved futile, he was given another chance at life. This time, he sought to do nothing after realizing the hopelessness of it all. Aventina wanted to do nothing more than to follow her father’s footsteps. On a retaliation raid against her tribe’s enemies, her brothers perished. Spared by a leader of her enemies, she returned home to find herself the chief of her tribe. Bolahulag, half-civilized and half-barbarian, half-lowborn and half-royal. Raised in his mother’s civilized tent in a sea of barbaric shelters, Bolahulag was hesitant to follow his paternal way of life. After a battle between a civilized king and his father, Bolahulag was sent as hostage to learn the economy and military of the nation his father defeated. Derai knew nothing more than being an orphan, but when a merchant took her in, the world she thought impossible soon became a reality. Monghe, stuck in a school exemplifying strength for most of his life, began to understand what he needed to do in order to be strong instead of weak. Story is mostly about nothing. Fermboi does most of the nothing. Aventina does most of the military things. Bolahulag does a balance of economy and military. Derai focuses on economy. Monghe spitfires what it means to be a typical hero. Hopefully this is enough to give a general idea to people who don’t like going blind aside from the work being purportedly “good.” Who am I kidding, my writing is terrible. I hope it improves though.
