Lucius (later called Lucius) spent the entire afternoon to completely accept the memories in his mind. He had planned to walk around, but he was hungry…
" Looks like…I have to go back for dinner…" Scratching his head in embarrassment, Lucius patted the dust off his body and looked at the beautiful scenery here longingly before setting foot on the road home.
Along the way, Lucius curiously looked at the buildings and people around him.
Most of the buildings here were made of stone, with a European style. Most of the women wore long skirts and scarves, while the men wore ancient European outfits. There was a wooden shed by the roadside, which was a place to sell things. It looked rather peaceful.
But Lucius flipped through the original memories and knew that there was darkness behind the silence.
Let's not talk about this for now. The main goal now is to fill my stomach!
After walking for a while, Lucius turned a corner and finally arrived at his house.
This was a relatively old but tidy house. Compared to the houses next to it, there was nothing broken. This was the biggest inheritance left by Lucius 'parents. The rest had been sold.
Sighing, Lucius slowly pushed open the door. The room was very dusty. When he pushed open the door, the air was filled with dust. It was obvious that it had not been cleaned for a long time.
That was true. How could a child who was thinking about how to fill his stomach all day have the mood to clean the room?
"Let's look for food first!”Looking at the dust in the room, Lucius was ready to clean up after filling his stomach.
But soon, Lucius was stunned. Other than a long loaf of bread that had hardened, there was only a box of expired milk…Other than that, there was no food…
" No way." Lucius sighed and shook his head helplessly. Was he going to starve tonight?
Just as Lucius was fretting, a voice came from outside.
"Lucius, why didn't you come to eat? You even asked me to bring it to you personally!”
"Uncle Ackerman." Lucius blurted out subconsciously. Memories of this man flashed through his mind.
It turned out that Lucius had been eating at his father's friend, the blacksmith Ackerman's house. No wonder there was no food at home...
Lucius turned around to see Ackerman open the door and walk in.
Looking at this brown-haired, capable, and gentle man, Lucius felt a surge of warmth in his heart. If Ackerman hadn't been taking care of him, he would have starved to death.
Seeing Lucius staring at him blankly, Ackerman stepped forward and rubbed his head.""You miss your parents again?"
" Uh... Um..." Lucius responded casually. But soon, he was attracted by the food in Ackerman's hand.
"Haha, kid, you must be hungry. Hurry up and eat!”Ackerman said with a smile as he placed the dishes on the table.
Ackerman's house was very close, and the food was still warm. Lucius was really hungry, so he ate quickly, causing Ackerman to laugh and scold him.
After dinner, Ackerman restrained himself and said to Lucius,""Lucius, you have grown up. Your father is an excellent blacksmith. I hope you can follow me and become a blacksmith apprentice. I believe you will definitely surpass me and your father to become an outstanding blacksmith!”
Ackerman patted Lucius on the shoulder and looked at him expectantly.
Lucius thought for a moment and nodded seriously.""Uncle Ackerman, I want to be a blacksmith apprentice. Tomorrow, I will follow you to learn the blacksmith's memory!”
"Good boy, as expected of the Elliot family. Come to my house tomorrow to find me.”Ackerman patted Lucius on the shoulder again and left with the empty lunch box in satisfaction.
"Blacksmith apprentice…"
Although he had the inheritance of the Desert Death God, Lucius was only ten years old. He had to think about how to support himself first. He couldn't always rely on Ackerman's help. Ackerman had a family too. As a blacksmith apprentice, he could at least earn a living, right?
Moreover, Lucius considered that being a blacksmith could also train one's strength and physical fitness. In this dangerous world, physical fitness was very important. Otherwise, if the giant slapped you, you wouldn't even be able to dodge it.
Lucius agreed to Ackerman's request.
After finally filling his stomach, Lucius looked around. He couldn't bear to look anymore, so he picked up the broom and started cleaning.
After all, it was his future home. He couldn't be so messy. Although Lucius wasn't obsessed with cleanliness, he didn't have the habit of sleeping in the dust. Every corner had been searched by Lucius, and all the dust and trash had been cleaned up. If he couldn't even clean the room, how could he torture the giant?
Lucius was exhausted after cleaning the room with great difficulty. After all, he was only ten years old and did not have much physical strength. In addition, he had been nervous and excited all afternoon, so fatigue was inevitable.
Lying on the bed, Lucius looked at the dark roof. The moonlight shone through the window and onto his face. This was his first night in the world of giants. Perhaps he would live here forever…
In his sleep, Lucius seemed to hear a sigh, distant and ancient.
