Chapter 100: Celebration Time (2) – Hatching, E book of Incarnation
Consumer: Han Kain (Knowledge)
Date: Day 16
Present Location: Flooring 1, Room 105 (Room of Relaxation)
Sage’s Recommendation: 3
— QUAAAAAKK!
“Uaahkkk!”
“Carry one thing! Something!”
“What do you imply something! Does anybody know what it eats?”
“Songee! Have you learnt something? Can we give it milk?”
“I’ve by no means raised a child fowl both.”
Chaos!
I awoke from a brief nap in my room when it was time for supper, and realized the utter chaos that the room was in.
An animal that resembled a child parrot had popped out of the egg.
We didn’t know something about find out how to elevate child animals, so what the heck had been we speculated to do?
The parrot continued quacking like loopy, including much more to the confusion.
Nonetheless, this was a fowl that hatched from the golden egg supplied by the Lodge! It will in no way be a standard fowl.
We couldn’t let it die simply due to our ignorance of find out how to elevate child birds!
Sage’s Recommendation 3 → 2
Please inform me every part about find out how to elevate child birds!
I used to be skeptical even when asking that query. What if we bought a response that went one thing like, “Increase it with all of your coronary heart?” That may be the worst-case situation.
Thankfully, the response I obtained was unexpectedly form and detailed.
Feed a small quantity of crushed egg yolk combined with water. Make a mattress with comfortable garments. The infancy doesn’t final lengthy, so watch out only for the subsequent few days.
…What? It was very “kind-hearted recommendation” which was fairly totally different from the way it usually was.
Is the owl being good as a result of the fowl was of its personal form?
Regardless, I shortly informed everybody the content material of the recommendation.
A few of us shortly retrieved a boiled egg from the eating desk to create the infant meals, whereas the others took off their outer clothes to wrap the fowl and do every part they may.
“Songee!”
“Sure?”
“How lengthy does it take for a fowl to develop up? We’ve got to enter a Cursed Room in only a few days.”
“I don’t know both, however based on what Kain-oppa heard, the infancy shouldn’t final lengthy, proper? It’s in all probability totally different from regular birds. I’m certain the Lodge wouldn’t make us take care of a child fowl for an entire month.”
She had a degree. I may solely hope that she was proper.
Solely after one other hour or so of chaos did every part lastly quiet down.
“We have to elevate a child fowl now? What in the event that they make us elevate a human child subsequent time?” Jinchul-hyung mumbled with a clean look on his face.
Ignoring his comment, Eunsol-noona, who nonetheless appeared rational and logical regardless of every part that occurred, stated to me.
“Use the recommendation once more as quickly as one thing goes flawed. It’s a unprecedented animal born from the golden egg. We will’t have it die on us for a silly purpose.”
“I assume it must be a unprecedented animal, however I ponder what it’s able to doing?”
“Who is aware of, we in all probability want to attend till the infancy is over on the very least.”
Even after the entire chaotic mess, the infant fowl continued crying each 10 minutes for meals, and we needed to repeat the exhausting technique of soothing it with extra meals.
Maybe because of “Affinity”, the infant fowl appeared hooked up to Songee, and Songee turned the one tasked with feeding it.
We had been solely in a position to loosen up ourselves when the fowl was asleep.
“It’s actually exhausting.”
“…”
“Yeah…”
We had been blankly staring off into nothing when Ahri opened her mouth.
“Use the recommendation once more. See if there’s something we must be cautious about.”
“Isn’t that what we requested? Feeding it meals and conserving it heat.”
“That was simply on find out how to elevate regular birds. There isn’t any method this fowl is regular, so ask a extra particular query like, ‘Is there something we must be particularly cautious about?’ or one thing.”
I used to be a bit skeptical once more. Identical to final time, it was asking for recommendation on “one thing we had no prior details about”.
How doubtless was it that we’d get a correct reply? I wasn’t certain, however there was no different method round it.
Sage’s Recommendation: 2 → 1
Please inform me the precise precautions we have to take for this fowl!
You will need to not depart the Grotesque Parrot alone by itself at night time.
***
I used to be instantly struck speechless.
What the hell is that identify? A “Grotesque Parrot”?
What sort of horrifying identify is that?
And what’s going to occur if it’s left alone at night time?
I conveyed what I obtained, to which Songee replied as if it wasn’t a giant deal.
“I can sleep with it.”
I gained everlasting life!
Everlasting life, which even the Emperor of a complete continent had desperately yearned for – I acquired it one month after arriving on the Lodge.
Nonetheless, what I used to be feeling was in no way a refreshing sense of enlightenment, nor pleasure at the truth that I had transcended the realm of people.
My whole physique felt like stuffy garments, and I instinctively knew that I may “take it off”.
It was extraordinarily uncomfortable, and I needed to take it off.
A disgustingly highly effective sense of dissonance was filling my head.
In all probability attributable to listening to the sound of me vomiting, somebody got here out of Room 105.
“Kain? Are you okay?”
“Eunsol-noona…”
The second I seemed into her eyes, I spotted one thing – it was the truth that I may steal “these garments” for myself.
Gritting my tooth, I pulled my eyes away.
I needed to maintain it in. There was no level in stealing the physique of a teammate.
After saying sorry, I headed to the tea desk on the entrance reception to spend time on my own.
It appeared that I must spend a little bit of time alone for in the present day.
Even everlasting life was simply an additional “little bit of service” included with the Energy of Possession, so what precisely was the Energy of Incarnation, which even exceeded that?
For some purpose, I nonetheless couldn’t perceive something in regards to the Energy of Incarnation.
I made a decision to make use of my final piece of recommendation for the day on understanding the grimoire a bit extra.

– Yu Songee
Kain-oppa all of the sudden began retching exterior.
Eunsol-noona got here again in after checking on him however had a puzzled look on her face.
“Was oppa alright?” I requested.
“Unsure. I don’t suppose there was something flawed however he was a bit sharper than common. He stated he wants a while by himself.”
“Is it due to the grimoire?”
“Possibly.”
I ponder what was flawed swiftly?
Ought to I verify in on him too?
— QUAAAAK!
Ah, sadly, I couldn’t. This little fowl was going at it once more.
After taking a brief nap, the fowl bought up and was crying once more, similar to the way it was 10 minutes in the past.
This helped me perceive what they meant when the Lodge stated that the “infancy wouldn’t final lengthy”.
Though this was my first time elevating a fowl, I had raised kittens and puppies earlier than, and one thing apparent was that this fowl was consuming an absurd quantity of meals.
It devoured a considerable amount of meals persistently regardless of its small dimension, which might make anybody query the bodily chance of such a factor taking place.
This was in all probability the one child fowl on the earth that would eat 30 egg yolks in a single hour.
Despite the fact that it had solely been just a few hours because it hatched, there have been already some seen indicators of development.
To be fully sincere, it seemed a bit disgusting firstly however now that it was barely larger with some feathers, it was beginning to resemble a cute parrot.
I ponder what his skills are going to be?
On the very least, it was sure that he wouldn’t be an odd animal!
At first, everybody was devoted to creating child meals, cushions, and every part however… in only a few hours, they had been beginning to take a relaxation right here and there, with nothing however syringes filled with child meals mendacity round subsequent to me.
What is that this? Why does it seem like I’m the one one elevating him!?
Am I a single father or mother now? They’re not even working!
Kain-oppa I may perceive from the grimoire however… it felt a bit unfair.
However… I remembered what Eunsol-noona stated. It was true that I tended to zone out with out contributing a lot in conferences.
Like how the conferences had been zealously carried out by the individuals who had been good at it, I made a decision to consider this as me doing what I excelled on the most as my contribution.
In the midst of feeding the infant fowl, I recalled the earlier dialog we had.
It was about pondering our blessings throughout this Celebration Time, proper?
Listening to that jogged my memory of the time I met my sponsor when enhancing my blessing. Others appeared to have had some deep conversations with their sponsors, however I didn’t have any of that.
A big elephant tall sufficient to succeed in the clouds simply got here up and tapped me as soon as with its nostril.
That was it, and the ability I acquired by way of the blessing enhancement was “Tacit Communication”.
…Wait, did it deliberately not say something as a result of the ability was about “understanding one another with out saying something”?
It was onerous to come back throughout “beings of chaos” that my Affinity labored on, so it was onerous to place it to make use of, however I used to be beginning to construct expertise by taking care of this child fowl.
Identical to what its identify steered, I used to be in a position to really feel the fowl’s feelings and impulses, and I too may ship it my very own ideas.
Infinite starvation, worry, curiosity… and love.
I may really feel that this child sincerely believed and relied on me.
That alone was sufficient to fill my coronary heart with affection, which was additionally why I may take care of it with out getting upset, regardless that everybody sneaked away within the center.
I used to be the one virtually elevating it, so I made a decision on his identify on my own.
Neglect in regards to the horrible identify of “Grotesque Parrot”! Your identify any further is Perro!
I sorted Perro until nighttime and took him to the cushion subsequent to my mattress when it was time to sleep.
That night time, I discovered what Perro’s horrifying capability /genesisforsaken
