*yawns*
Terran, as usual, woke up as soon as the first ray of sunlight touched his body. He was sensitive to sunlight perhaps or was just that sharp in noticing the change in surroundings.
However, even his sharpness couldn't detect Shin leaving – probably he was quite tired.
*blink*
Terran was the first one to wake up, among Shin's familia that is.
The elves woke up much sooner than him since it was their daily routine. In any case, not all were awake.
'Master…?', this was the first thing that Terran asked himself after waking up.
He couldn't find Shin within his range of vision.
'Is master busy doing some work?', this was another question that he asked himself.
Terran knew that Shin wasn't someone who would waste time on needless things.
While Terran considered helping others a needless task, Shin performed it happily and Terran had already realized that bring others to his team wasn't useless at all and it was far from wasting time.
Whatever, he just woke up and his mind was a bit fuzzy. He stood up and stretched his body which was probably in little pain.
He then checked to see if Alira and Kaily were fine and yes, they were still asleep. Probably they were much more tired when compared to Terran.
In any case, he decided to go wait there till Shin returned. He licked his face with his long tongue and then shook his body to take off the dust from his body if any.
He then looked here and there, only finding elves gathering some leaves.
'Uh…'
'How to ask something…?' – Terran wanted to ask a few things to the elves regarding what they were doing.
"What are you doing?", he asked out of curiosity.
'I….'
'I asked!'
He was flustered just by that and felt as if he had done some great job.
Well, he had been isolated for ages and all he could find near him were reptiles or low monsters that were either scared of him or were deemed as his prey.
He would just eat them since they had low intelligence and could hardly converse anything.
That's why it took him some time to think about what he had to ask because he had basically forgotten how to even hold a conversation.
"We are gathering some leaves on which we will provide some fruits and berries to eat…", was what the elves said.
Yes, the elves were actually arranging breakfast for Terran and others.
'Now this is weird…'
'The elves…'
'Do they really wish to feed us with fruits again?', Terran made an awkward face.
Anyone could say, after looking at his face. That he wanted to have some meat.
He was a carnivore after all and while eating fruits was possible, he would prefer meat over anything else.
"But I want meat…" – it ended up slipping his mouth.
The elves heard what he said and started to discuss among themselves to solve the problem.
Basically, for meat, they had to go and hunt a monster which would be quite a deadly task for them.
Shin had advised them not to do that the day prior so they were confused about the situation.
It wasn't exactly chaotic, but their voices started to rise as they were discussing whether to hunt or not. And when this was happening, the Chief of the elves arrived at the scene.
"What's the commotion about?", he asked. And after the situation was explained to him, all he did was sigh.
"So, Sir Terran, you want meat for breakfast…?" – the chief asked.
"Yes.", Terran nodded his head vigorously.
"Then why don't you come with us?", the chief said.
"Go with you?"
"Where?"
"Hunting.", the chief replied calmly.
It was as if he wanted Terran to hunt his own food. There were two reasons because of which he said this, first – he had no idea what kind of monsters Terran would like to eat, and second – he couldn't sacrifice his own members who had many problems just for meat.
Of course, if it was Shin, the case would have been different. He would have agreed regardless of anything because when they accepted Shin as their leader, they accepted his leadership and intellect as well.
Well, they were going to agree to Terran's requests too if it weren't as silly as this.
Terran felt as if he was being mocked. He had high intellect like Shin so he could understand their point of view at the same time.
While he was angered from within because the way the chief told felt like a taunt to him, he maintained a calm composter.
"It's fine…"
"The fruits will do.", he concluded.
The elves then stopped thinking anything else and started to serve the fresh fruits which they had gathered in the morning.
They were brightly colored while giving off a weird tingly scent which felt good.
While the noses of animals and beasts were quite sensitive, the desire to eat something could be second to none.
Terran could hardly control himself from eating the fruits and wanted to dive right in. He was practically drooling over the sight of the fruits because he was hungry.
However, he was trying his best to wait for Shin to return. He thought that Shin was somewhere around but he had no idea that Shin had run off to a very far place in search of Aella.
"Wah…"
p
She was a carnivore too but cared not at the moment.
She just dived in and started eating them while Kaily, who just woke up, and Terran held themselves back because both of them knew that it should be Shin who should be eating first!
They let little Alira start though because she was the youngest out of all of them and probably didn't know many things.
They could teach her whenever they wanted so they deemed it to be fine, for now, that is.
*crunch crunch*
Alira kept munching for a while when she found out that she was the only one eating.
"Why aren't you all eating?", she asked.
"…", no one replied and she just stared at their faces.
"Master…"
"I forgot to wait for him!" – the thought came to her mind automatically.
When she said that, Terran and Kaily sighed and said, "That's why we weren't eating."
"But…"
"Where is master?"
"…"
