A Journey Through the Universes

Chapter 181: Gosha



Day. Gloomy clouds covered the sky. The icy howling wind was habitually blowing over the bodies of two hardened children with blue hair.

A four–year-old girl, looking at a younger boy, said with a smile - Come on, Ryuu. All the children of our clan go through this training. I also went through this at one time and I can say for sure, it made me stronger.

– Esdes, don't you feel sorry for him at all? Ryuu sighed, stroking the ears of the pet hare he had been raising for two months

Now he was going through another training session. Its essence was that upon reaching the age of two, the child should raise a small hare, and then personally, with his own hands, kill him. Preferably with bare hands without the use of third-party tools like a knife or an axe.

Esdes shook her head and looked sweetly at Ryuu, as if he was too young and didn't understand anything yet – Pity is a sign of weakness, brother. If you feel pity, then your spirit is weak, and your heart is too sensitive and tender. And as you know, the weak can only expect death from the stronger.

Ryuu did not give up, he used every chance to sow seeds of doubt in his sister's way of thinking. "But don't you think he's very cute and funny?" Look how fluffy he is! What big beady eyes! What ears! Look how good he is...

Esdes interrupted him with a gentle smile–And how delicious... Especially if you cook it...

– "B*ya, you can't argue here..." – Ryuu swore to himself – You don't like him at all?

– Of course I like it. she nodded

– Just because it's delicious and nutritious? he tilted his head slightly

– Not only, as you say, he's a pretty funny animal. But we are stronger, which means he is in our power. If we want him to die, it is our right as strong. – suddenly, Esdes' innocent gentle smile began to border on a grin – And I want to see fear and despair in those small eyes, I want to hear the crunch of his thin, fragile neck, and I also want to eat him. That's it, Ryuu. Do what you have to do. I can advise you to do it slower, so that the creature gets enough of despair, its helplessness and weakness...

*Crunch*

Suddenly Esdes was interrupted by the sound of a hare's neck breaking.

Ryuu had no intention of torturing the animal and did it as quickly as possible. He didn't even have time to be scared and just realize that he was in danger at all – "Yes, it's hard to convince Esdes to become at least a little compassionate when you almost don't feel sorry for the animal yourself... It seems like a girl is a girl, but sometimes she gets stuck and her inner monster comes out."

Unlike other children, this ordeal was not unexpected for him. He knew in advance what was waiting for the hare and perceived him as an ordinary domestic animal that would be hacked to jelly. He did not consider the bunny his friend or favorite animal. Although even if he did, the situation would not have changed dramatically.

– Well done. I knew you could handle it, there were more conversations. Esdes nodded, patting Ryuu's hair, "Your body is strong, brother. Your spirit is also very strong, but your heart is not yet hardened enough. I think it will improve with age, but for now, let's cook it.

Ryuu sighed – "Even with the bonus from the skill, her thinking is too difficult to shake, not to mention sadistic tendencies." – he took out his knife that was given to him by his father for two years and went to his favorite place with his sister – Let's go, let Gosha serve us the last service.

Esdes was delighted and catching up with her brother, she said – I love it when you cook. By the way, why did you give him a name at all and with such a strange one?

– A normal name, why didn't Gosha please you? It suited him very well... until I broke his head.

She smiled and noticing the deep traces of her brother, said – I don't understand why you are so heavy. I'm older, but you weigh twice as much as me.

– It's just that my bone is wide. – Ryuu replied and noted – "Yes, I weigh five times more now, because of the skeleton, than I should in theory."

A minute later they reached a clearing where several logs stood comfortably between which there was an old ash.

There Ryuu butchered the hare and with the help of seasonings that were hidden in that place, he began to cook.

Not much has changed in the past two years.

He continued to search for various skills and trained those already discovered.

As soon as he started walking, he immediately began to train, hiding all this under the usual children's games. In general, it's a little funny, adults, thinking that they were manipulating him, trained him under the guise of games, and Ryuu not only supported this, but also became the main engine of this process. All the actors of this theater were happy, but most of all, of course, Ryuu.

Nevertheless, he did not overdo it. He did not show even thirty percent of his strength, because he did not want to be seriously interested in him and to engage in his upbringing with training. He himself knew how to develop better and others could only interfere, but not help in any way.

Therefore, Ryuu showed only his remarkable intelligent mind, and then only because he wanted to be left in the care of himself early. It was because of his conscious behavior that adults trusted him, and Esdes spoke on equal terms, even if she believed that her brother was much weaker.

Although in fact Ryuu was already a little physically stronger than Esdes, not to mention the overall strength of his body. In fact, it's amazing, but now, at two years old, he is physically stronger than a four-year-old in the world of Naruto. Of course, his accumulated experience and the new system affected this, but the food of this universe, or rather the meat of Dangerous Animals, is mainly to blame. This meat is much more nutritious and healthier than any food from the world of Naruto, and besides, it literally spurs your physical development.

The stronger and more powerful the dangerous beast, the better its meat, which is more than logical. However, it is better for weak people not to eat the meat of too strong animals, as this can easily kill them...

As for his relationship with his father and stepmother, they were... interesting.

The father, who by the way was called Masa, paid all his attention to his daughter, who was already recognized as a genius.

Masa did not treat Ryu coldly, no, he just received almost no attention, and to be honest, he was on the contrary more than happy about this. For obvious reasons.

And in general, how can you be angry with your father because of such a trifle, when you satisfy the carnal needs of his wife, your stepmother every day.

Yes, Yuko did not stop breastfeeding him, although it was time to stop this business a long time ago. But the woman resisted this decision with all her might, saying that this is how she shows her maternal love, compensates for the cool attitude of the father to the son, and so on. And in general, her lactation does not stop, and it is too difficult and dreary to drain milk, let it be better for Ryuu to continue squeezing it.

Now it has also turned out that she is pregnant, so lactation will definitely not stop in the near future. In general, Ryuu was still kneading his tits every day and was more than satisfied.

When the first few pieces of the hare were ready, he handed them to his sister.

The girl gladly accepted the treat and took a bite, affectionately put her palm to her cheek – Mm ~ m, how delicious. I envy your future wife, Ryuu.

Ryuu chuckled, "Considering how quickly you get attached to me and your character, you definitely won't give me up to anyone without a fight. And I'm a loving person, so I'm enough for everyone. However, without a fight, the harem will not pass with you either. If we have anything going at all in the future..."

"Hmm, here's my reward for a few months of effort. It's a pity I can't cook more often, then it would take a maximum of a month."

After roasting the hare, Ryuu handed over all the meat to Esdes – What are you doing? – she was surprised, not understanding anything

– I'm going hunting. Ryuu waved his hand

– Aren't you going to eat? – the girl waved a fried hare leg

— no. I'm not hungry. – he answered and did not lie

"Okay, just don't come back too late and don't go too far into the woods. The animals that are in the depths of the forest are still too strong for you.

– I know. – finally, Ryuu replied: "Probably, this is the only place in this whole universe where a two–year-old boy can be sent to a forest filled with dangerous animals to hunt and tell him not to stay long... Status"

Meanwhile, Ryuu had already managed to go quite deep into the forest. Today he wanted to hunt something bigger than hares. They just seem to have stopped giving him at least some experience to raise the level.
