Chapter 7: Grow (Part 1)

... ...

Although it is really just a tiny bit, specifically, it is probably only a small part of the little finger on the left hand. However, this is clearly a good sign; if things continue like this, it shouldn't be long before a complete recovery is achieved

When Youxis opened his eyes once more, he was greeted by the beautiful scenery of the icy world. However, unlike the last time, the large bird with ice-blue wings was nowhere to be seen; instead, he was gently embraced by a beautiful older sister.

However, it is evident that, compared to this ancient tale that could rival the magic of hypnosis, the soft and warm bosom of the Ice Phoenix captured his attention even more. As the Ice Phoenix was a subject of knowledge from his studies, he leaned his head closer to her heart. Thus, his cheek could distinctly feel the soft bosom, which carried a faint fragrance, and he could clearly hear the steady and powerful rhythm of her heartbeat

Such warm and sweet moments pass by unknowingly. As a super patient lady of the Warcraft realm, the Ice Phoenix has no thoughts of fatigue, wanting to give up or rest. Therefore, even as the sun sets below the horizon and night falls, she tirelessly recounts those ancient and classic fables from the continent, time and again

"Good child, are you hungry again?" Binghuang lowered her head and once again sealed Euxis's lips with her own, performing the second feeding. This act was a daily necessity until her child was capable of finding food on their own

That is, regardless of how it changes or what it becomes, the pure and steadfast dream remains unchanged, the most precious thing to him

Raising his hand, a task that is exceedingly simple, so simple that even a newborn baby could easily accomplish it, has become an immensely exciting event for Ulysses at this moment. It is worth noting that it took him nearly five hours just to control the bending of the fingers on his left hand and to open his palm

"Eus... ...is... ..." In the empty room, the young boy repeated this name over and over; it should belong to him.

Finally, when the Ice Phoenix recounted the one hundredth ancient story, one of his hands finally regained its ability to move

Moreover, this older sister is truly very gentle. That kind of kiss, filled with tenderness and affection, seems to carry no other elements; it is simply a pure expression of gentle love towards him

"Good child, let me tell you a story..." After approximately fifteen minutes of "feeding" in her own family's way, the Ice Phoenix embraced Youxis, resting his head against her chest, allowing him to quietly listen to the sound of her heartbeat. (In the comprehensive guide to raising human infants—newborns will automatically calm down upon hearing their mother's heartbeat, so mothers with the means are encouraged to hold their children more often)

Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and on that mountain stood a temple. In the temple, there was an old priest and an apprentice priest. One day, the old priest told the apprentice a story, the content of which was... While Yousis was sleeping, the Ice Phoenix was not merely singing a lullaby. As a diligent and ambitious magical beast, Shuhe, the librarian, had memorized over a thousand fairy tales, waiting for her child to wake up so that she could provide him with enlightenment.

However, she seems unlikely to be his mother... Because her true form appears to be a majestic bird with ice-blue wings. No matter how one thinks about it, he cannot possibly be her child.

The icy, sweet liquid, imbued with an incredible power, spread throughout his entire body, providing a slight relief to his otherwise completely uncontrollable form. As that chilling sensation coursed through him, he could distinctly feel that his body's awareness seemed to have returned a little.

Memory ends here, and no further fragments will appear. However, relying on these fragments, he has already understood what his ideals and desires are. Although there are still many things that are not very clear, the most important things have become very clear.

Unable to move his entire body and unable to speak, Eucis could only obediently lie in the embrace of the Ice Phoenix, listening to the ancient stories that had been passed down through countless generations on the continent and would undoubtedly continue to be passed down for many more generations to come

"Ah, are you awake, child?" Noticing Yulisis had woken up, the Ice Phoenix happily rubbed its face against his, then shook his body. Although the size difference between them was not significant, for the Ice Phoenix, which was the embodiment of a level 9 magical beast, Yulisis's weight was hardly more than that of a feather.

He is striving to become a priest, which is why he is studying so diligently. This place is where he studies and also resides.

Ah, what a lively child from https://www.hetushu.com. The Ice Phoenix certainly noticed her child's actions, but when he placed his hand on her chest, it still caused her to pause for a moment. Of course, the slight tingling sensation coming from her chest was also a reason for her bewilderment. After all, she had never experienced anything like this before.

Those who have never experienced the fear of losing their ability to act will never know the sheer joy of completing a simple action. To accomplish this task, which even a baby can easily perform, Yuxis dedicated an entire afternoon, focusing all his energy on controlling his left hand. Each bend of his fingers required his full concentration, to the extent that he completely missed what Binghuang was saying in her story.

Great, we can finally take action

Gah..." Ulysses instinctively opened his mouth, wanting to speak. However, he soon became frustrated to discover that this action was an impossible task. His body, just like before, was almost completely beyond his control. Not to mention the complex action of speaking, even the extremely simple action of moving his fingers was as difficult as climbing to the sky.

You ... ... West ... ...

That feeling is just like that of a mother

He began to feel it... While listening to the story of the Ice Phoenix and sensing the condition of his own body, Eusias discovered that, as time passed, his ability to control this body seemed to strengthen. Initially, it was just a faint sensation, but as time went on, that feeling became clearer and more pronounced.

Although doing so would cause her to lose some power, compared to the growth of her own child, this is entirely a trivial cost. If it were not for considering the child's capacity to bear it, she could give much more. For her, as a level 9 magical beast, the little bit of power lost is completely negligible

On that simple desk, the softly glowing magical crystal lamp has been lit continuously, even for several days and nights without extinguishing. In one corner of the desk, there are always a few pieces of bread and a large cup of clear water, sustaining his all-night study.

Dong! Dong! Once, then again, it is a sound that captivates, representing life and vitality. Unbeknownst to him, the sound of Ulysses' heartbeat coincides with this sound.

From curling his fingers, to spreading his palm, to finally moving his arm, these actions that anyone can easily accomplish represent a significant breakthrough for Yuxis at this moment. When he trembled as he pressed his hand against the body of the Ice Phoenix, the sense of joy and satisfaction made his entire body shudder. For him, this was truly exhilarating!

It is truly wonderful to be able to remember... (For the time being, let Ulysses be referred to as Ulyssus.)

Come! Come! Good child, you can do anything, but please do not hurt your mother...

He remembered that in this room, he had sat beside that desk more than once, studying late into the night. It was not until the morning sunlight streamed through the window onto the book he was reading that he realized the passage of time

Oh! Just like last time, Youxis was unable to resist and could only passively accept the kiss from the Ice Phoenix. Accompanied by this passionate kiss, the cool liquid that had already been tasted once flowed from the Ice Phoenix's mouth.

It seems that I have seen similar accounts. Newborns instinctively seek out things that provide them warmth and are curious about things that are flexible. In this sense, is it correct to say that the thing her child likes is her breast? Well, it does make some sense. Her breast is indeed quite beautiful.

He has carefully and earnestly read every book here. Although he cannot memorize everything like those geniuses, each page of the books bears his fingerprints, a testament to his tireless efforts and repeated readings.

He is familiar with everything here, to the extent that he can easily recognize it even with his eyes closed. For him, this place is "home," a "home" that brings him a sense of security, undisturbed by anyone.

Eusis! With each repetition, fragments of new memories return to his body, albeit incomplete. However, without a doubt, they all belong to him, the most precious things.

Since he likes it, then let him do as he wishes. With this thought in mind, the Ice Phoenix unhesitatingly placed her child's hands on her own resilient chest. For the sake of her child, this small sacrifice is nothing.

What is the weakest thing in this world? Even so, it exists to protect us. Even though the stars in the sky are so beautiful, they cannot divert my gaze from you, so this is love... The lullaby still echoes around Yuxis. It seems that during the time he just fell asleep, that big sister has been holding him like this, singing this song.
