" Guu ...gu gu ... " Donovan says while seeing the interface as suddenly a voice tells him.
" Intelligence increased ... good ... "
" Wisdom increased ... great ... "
" No item for now ... it's okay ... "
" At least I am not a stupid idiot in this very world .... " the voice says in his head, those unknown voices from a very unknown origin, a voice that always comes before and after he does things.
After the voice says that, Donovan then tries to stand as he walks toward his sleepy parents that are sleeping on the living room sofa.
" Gu gu ... " Donovan tries to wake Irina as her hand is on the floor.
" Gu gu .... "
" Gu gu ..... " Donovan calls her but still she was only half-awake even after he wakes her.
" Uh uh ... wha.... "
" Gu !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Donovan shouts as it shocks her which makes Irina had to fall onto the floor.
" Oh ... what ... Donovan ... " Irina says as he sees Donovan on the floor with her.
" Gu heeee ... " Donovan smirks as he pranks her.
" Really now, Donnie? "
" Mommy is sleepy, you know ... "
" Mommy hasn't had enough rest after we deal with those things on that villa hmm... " Irina says as he holds him, but ...
" Wait this ... "
" Donnie ... "
" Are you !!!?? " Irina asks in her shock as she realizes the wet.
" Gu !!!! "
" Donnie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Irina says as it seems that she changes Donovan's call name from just Don to Donnie thanks to her sister Alicia.
..
( Minutes later. )
" Ooohh Donnie .... " Irina says as she deals with Donnie who still definitely doesn't know how to do his toilet things as she taught him how which Donny watches with his big white eyes.
" Gu ..... " Donnie looks at it.
< Lesson 13: How to clean things in Bathroom Part I, learned. >
< EXP +300 >
< Achievement: >
< Basic Bathroom Intelligence I >
.....
As he learned that, Donovan immediately picks the water sprayer from Irina as he tries to flush himself which shocks her as she never thought that Donovan will learn it so quickly.
" Oh my ... Duncan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
" Duncan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Irina calls the still sleeping Duncan.
As Duncan was sleeping, he then hears Irina's voice as he then slowly awakened.
" Oh my... is it Afternoon already? " he says as he proceeds to see his watch.
" Hmmph, it's still 09.00 a.m. " Duncan says as he goes to the Bathroom when he finally manages to hear Irina's voice.
" Ooohh, Duncan .. daddy ... look !!!!! " Irina says as she tells Duncan of what just Donovan did recently which also shocks Duncan as he never thought a probably 1-year-old child could do such a thing.
As he says that, the two praise Donovan while Donovan there just say his basic words.
" Guuuu!!!! " he says as his parents then tell him that after this, seeing his quick learning, they say that they are probably going to teach him how to speak since both of their schedules are empty this day.
....
( Somewhere. )
Hector goes to the Elysium Haven Grand Archives as he was accompanied by some of his knight guards.
" Sir Hector had arrived .. "
" Open this very door !!! " Hector's new Knight Guard Captain says as he tells the Archive Knights to open the Royal Door, a door that is for the Royals who had their rights to see some specific Lores in the Grand Archives.
As the door was opened, Hector orders his knight guards to guard the front as only the royal house members can enter these very doors.
" All of you, stay here .. "
" Inside is the place where only the likes of me could enter in order to maintain some secrets of the previous era. "
" So I order to stay and guard this very area, do you understand? "
" Understood sir ... " the knight captain says as Hector enters the archives.
The door is closed and Hector is walking alone along the aisle of Lores where he sees many books and holographic papers from the past as he then goes to the Archive Manager.
" Welcome, Sir Hector. "
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" How can I serve you today? " the Archive Manager asks.
" Hmm .. yes Charles, I think there's an ancient book that I need to see ... " Hector says as he then offers Charles a photo of the Giant Black Hand Tree that Duncan gave him at the Villa back then as he shows the Manager that.
" Sir what is ...? "
" Exactly, what is that right? " Hector says as he then asks Charles about the Ancient Book that has the subject of things like Black Magic, Darkness Magic, Shadow Magic, and those things that he deems to be related to this very picture.
Hearing that, Charles then begins to order his drone as he tells Hector to wait on the seat in that place as the drone picks up the ordered books.
( Minutes later .. )
Hector is seen to be focused on reading the gathered books that the drone brings to him.
As he delves into the books, he begins to search for everything that relates to the tree as he still hadn't found some proof that can help him fill his thoughts of the very curious tree that his now grandson Donovan was found.
" I never thought that it would be this difficult. " Hector says as he then realizes that the Grand Archives that said to contain all pieces of knowledge from the Previous Era is still not enough as it doesn't seem to contain any information regarding the black hand tree.
As he reads, he then wonders if his grandson is some kind of an ancient entity that survives into this day since he is found in the Dungeon, or if he was just a recent unnatural phenomenon that needs to be investigated by capable hands.
" This is getting nowhere .. "
" It seems I need to assign someone to help my daughter and Duncan to monitor Donovan at their home. "
" Especially after our villa's incident, it seems that I need to raise my daughter's family security ... "
" But ... " Hector says as Charles then asks him what's wrong which Hector replies that he is just wondering if he can raise the security to Irina's house but he thinks that the guards should protect her from afar since she doesn't want her to suspect him fro being too protective again.
" Also, I think I need to apply someone to do a constant physical check on my newfound Grandson. "
" Any ideas, Charles? " Hector asks Charles as the man then tells that he maybe know someone on that someone that can do the physical check as he then sees his known people list which he could ask for help.
" I'm sorry sir Hector, I only know someone capable to do physical checks on some unique individuals .. not some shadow bodyguards ... "
" Does this not anger you? " Charles says while being nervous.
" That is enough ... "
" For the security part, that is all on me ... "
" Please tell me regarding the person you recommend after I finished reading more books while I'm here. " Hector says as he knows that even as a royal, he was only allowed to enter the Grand Archive once per month he then decides to waste his all day there.
