Amongst the many things I had experienced in my previous life, one of the things that I remembered well were Divine Materials, special materials imbued with divine power that had incredible properties and cost millions of cosmic crystals, the currency of the outer universe.
It has been a few days since the hunting incident, and I was sitting at the table while checking this gold coin… I suppose even the gold of this world is different from the one I know about.
And interestingly so. Using this metal to make weapons would be good, it seems to be able to conduct a lot of mana by itself… I suppose this is why gold is so valuable to make it a currency, huh?
"Dear, the breakfast for your father is ready, can you bring it to him?"
My mother was cooking near the table and had prepared a plate with bread, tea, and fruits for father.
I didn't have any issue by helping my family out, I quickly held the table with the food and moved towards my parent's room, there, my father was looking into the window with a calm smile.
His eyes were mildly closed and rather sleepy. However, he was sitting in a certain position I had caught him, which was by crossing his legs and putting his arms over his thighs.
He was passively moving the Qi around his body to enhance its effectiveness and power, quite literally, this was one of the basics of Qi Cultivation.
The most basic technique that I can automatically do, even now, I am doing it without thinking over it, it is named Qi Breathing Technique.
You breathe in a particular way that makes your Qi flow across your body in a certain way. I had taught this to my father yesterday, actually, and he was already able to do it without paying much attention to it, he was just admiring the scenery outside.
"You've surprised me, you got pretty good at it already, father." I said.
"Ah, Blake! D-Did you bring me breakfast?" asked my father in surprise.
"Yeah, what's wrong with that?" I asked.
"Y-You've never done that before…" he said.
"Well? You're my father, I don't see anything wrong with that." I said.
I put the table over the bed and my father quickly stopped his practice and decided to dig in.
I moved near his body and began using some basic healing magic spell, from the Life Attribute Magic, a Tier 1 Spell named "Life Infusion" around his wound.
The wound itself had closed, but it still was mildly fresh, so it might take over a week if not a month for the wound to recover completely.
I used First Aid to enhance my Life Infusion, this was a small treatment I did to his wound every morning to hasten the recovery.
I had told my father about this newly awakened energy he had within him, which I just called Qi.
He didn't understand at first, but he really didn't have to. I just told him that it was a gift of the Holy Spirits, separate power of Mana, and that he had to cultivate it to surpass his limits, as he had hit a progression wall that he couldn't surpass as he hasn't been able to level up in years.
So the only way for him to grow stronger was through cultivation away from the Talent powers he had already tapped into.
He accepted it fairly easily, after I saved his life, he was very trustful of me, which was for the best.
"S-Son, you don't have to check me every day…" he sighed.
"Don't be , it is my duty. I've awakened healing abilities, so I have to train them too." I said.
Although I was doing this for my father, I was also practicing First Aid and gaining Skill Proficiency out of it, so it was killing two birds with one stone. I actually did the same with all other six people from the hunt, every day, it took some time out of my training time, but it helped me develop my First Aid and Savior Skills.
"You're such a hard worker… I am proud of you but I am worried you'll keep pilling responsibilities on yourself… You know? Kids gotta be kids, you need your free time to enjoy your childhood…" said my father.
My father was being very considerate, I even felt a bit moved, but there was no need for him to be so considerate to be honest, I can very much enjoy these activities and they don't feel like a drag.
But I can guess where he is trying to go with this… For the moment, I finished the First Aid and saw that everything was doing fine with him. He was better than before, that's for sure.
"For now eat up and rest. And you don't have to worry, dad, I got my friends and we'll play around and practice magic together. I am enjoying my childhood… I am just worried because you're my father, is that bad?" I asked.
"N-No… It's not bad… I am just… so surprised to have such an amazing child… Sometimes it feels like a dream..." he sighed.
"I also have an amazing father." I said.
"B-Blake…" my father cried, he was about to begin crying.
What a crybaby old man… I shouldn't had said that out of the blue.
He suddenly hugged me tightly as he began to cry tears of happiness.
"Come on, you've been crying all the time, aren't you going to be the father of two more?" I reprimanded him.
"O-Oh… You're right…" he said.
"So for now rest up, and practice the breathing technique, after you rest and heal back to full, you'll find out that there might be changes in your body." I said.
"I won't spoil it to you, so keep working hard while resting." I said.
"Heh, alright then. I won't disappoint you next time… I will make sure to use this power and grow stronger! Your dad is going to become the strongest hunter!" he said.
I like my childish father's spirit.
