BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102 Argument
As my mother slumbered peacefully, I nestled into a cosy spot on her bare breasts, with Reena and Gina snoozing on the other side. Little did I know, my assumptions were about to be shattered as I turned my head towards them and caught Reena hastily closing her eyes, attempting to conceal her prior gaze in our direction.
With a grin spreading across my face, I resolved to carve out some time tomorrow to finally make her my partner. However, I couldn\'t help but observe as she drifted off to sleep after only a few minutes, likely due to the exhausting day she had on the farm. Consequently, I closed my own eyes and allowed myself to drift off, knowing that I needed every ounce of energy in order to try and see if I could awaken my gift tomorrow.
\'Damn, these breasts are so comfortable\' I couldn\'t help but think one last thought.
.......
After waking up the next morning, I stretched up my bones and body only to discover that I was the only one still laying down on the mat.
"You\'re awake," Gina\'s voice reverberated behind me, causing me to pivot swiftly. Before I could utter a word, the syllable "Catch" slipped from her lips, and my hand instinctively extended to grasp the object hurtling towards me. My fingers closed tightly around the fruit, identifying it as a Lipry - its soft exterior giving way as I sank my teeth into its juicy flesh.
As I savoured the delectable flavour, Gina\'s voice resumed its narrative. "Reena has already gone to the farm, and Mom set out early this morning to fetch water, so I…".
Suddenly, the creaking sound of the wooden door being forced open interrupted her mid-sentence, causing us both to turn towards it with curiosity. "Oh, she\'s back," said Gina before hastily munching on another piece of fruit and returning her gaze back to the bowl in front of her.
In the meantime, I promptly got up from the floor and reached out to assist our mother in carrying the clay pot that she had balanced on her head. Once we had successfully taken it down, I called out to Gina who reluctantly stood up to lend me a hand in pouring the pot\'s contents into the tank.
As we walked back into the hutI couldn\'t help but notice my mother munching on one of the fruits that I had picked up earlier. She glanced at me before quizzically asking, "Aren\'t you supposed to be heading to the farm today?" Her raised brow gave away her confusion about my lack of urgency.
I gently shook my head and proceeded to clear up her misunderstanding, "No, not today. It\'s actually a free day for me. And to be honest, I don\'t think I\'ll be working on the farm anytime soon." My words seemed to take her by surprise and confused.
Her eyes scrunched up even further with confusion as she asked, "Why?" Clearly, she was trying to understand my words.
IAnd so, I explained to her "Apart from not having awakened my gift yet, I\'ve recently discovered that I possess a six-star potential for my inner strength, as evaluated by the village chief." It was only after I had finished speaking that I realized I had failed to mention my intentions of becoming a warrior to my mother.
I couldn\'t help but let out a sudden sigh as I observed my mother\'s expression shifting from nonchalance to utter confusion, and then disbelief. I thought to myself, \'Thank goodness I didn\'t mention my plans of becoming a warrior, or it would have completely spoiled the mood.\'
As she stared at me in shock, the fruit that was in her hand slipped from her grasp and tumbled to the ground. "You\'re going to become what?" she asked incredulously, clearly taken aback by my unexpected revelation.
Undeterred by my mother\'s sudden outburst, I repeated myself firmly, "A warrior. I awakened a six-star potential for my inner strength, and..."
However, before I could say another word, she sharply interjected, "No, you won\'t!" Her voice tore through my words and left me feeling a little stunned by her vehement reaction.
Suddenly, a frown etches itself on my face as I quickly responded, "Why?" Although I wasn\'t entirely sure about how warriors were paid, I couldn\'t help but think that their labour was at least ten times harder and more dangerous than that of the average villager. Moreover, not everyone possessed the necessary potential to become a warrior, making them an invaluable necessity for the village. Surely, all of these factors combined must mean that warriors were among the wealthiest members of the village.
Which also means that if I wanted to amass wealth rapidly, choosing to become a warrior would be my best option.
From the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Gina picking up her fruits before moving to a nearby spot to observe the scene. Our mother finally responded after attempting to quell her anger. "Why?" she exclaimed. "Why?... Becuase If you still had your memories, you would understand that being a warrior is one of the most dangerous works to do. You could lose your life during a battle, and if I\'m fortunate enough to retrieve your body, only a mere fraction will remain for Naka\'s blessing."
Even though I comprehended the potential dangers, nothing was going to stop me from becoming a warrior. So I replied, "If it means defending the village with you, Gina, and Reena within it, then I will gladly become a warrior to ensure your safety. Moreover, I can use the wealth accumulated from becoming a warrior to build a new hut for us and...\' Abruptly, she interrupted with a piercing scream. "ARE TOU DEAF?" Her chest rose and fell rapidly as her expression transformed into a fierce scowl.
I approached her, hoping to calm her down and find a peaceful resolution, becuase I needed a calm day and time to focus on awakening my gift today, but before I knew it, she sprang up from her seat and lunged at me. I stumbled backwards as she crashed into me, pinning me to the ground with force. As she straddled me, she turned to Gina and screamed, "GINA LOCKED THE DOORS!" I watched in disbelief as Gina sprinted to the front door and secured the wooden locks to the wall, then did the same with the backyard door.
