Reincarnated With The Undefeated System-Chapter 13 Nine Months Later.
It's been 9 months since the birth of Aiden into the Tuvalon Kingdom. He wasn't that much of a weak baby anymore, he had already taken his first step as a baby...he was already walking little by little.
He watched himself gain strength little by little, before, he couldn't stand on his own or do other things, he was always lying in his crib or his mum would be carrying him...she didn't even let him crawl. But now, he was already walking to the best of his capability, crawling was the easiest.
He loved the feeling, he loved that things were changing, not being able to do anything wasn't appealing to him. He was watching himself grow. For the past nine months, he had been drinking breast milk, and he gets rewarded for it from the system. His Exp and Skill points were increasing.
But he wasn't dependent on breast milk alone for survival anymore. In his sixth month, he started eating solid food. But they do make sure his solid foods were different. Emma makes sure to soften all his solid foods so they would be easier for him to eat.
And he was enjoying the feeling, that feeling of eating solid food...he wasn't dependent on breast milk alone anymore.
And that stuff that happened to him before never happened again, no one tried to capture him again. For the past nine months, Aiden's crib was always in their room, they never brought it to the living room. Anytime any of the family members wanted to carry him, they'll go to the room, carry him, cuddle him, then go back to the room and drop him in his crib.
Whenever Emma wanted to feed or breastfeed him, she'll go to the room, take him from the crib, and do whatever she wants to do. And when she's done, she'll go to the room and drop him back in his crib.
After the failed attempt to capture, Aiden, and all the assassins he sent were killed, Asher stayed on a low. He never made any attempt to capture Aiden again. But that doesn't mean he doesn't hate Ethan anymore.
The king kept to his promise, every single day, he sends two knights to Ethan's house to protect, Little Aiden, and his mum. Ethan wasn't around most of the time, he was a busy person. Do you know what it means to be a bender? A chief? And a warrior?
But that doesn't mean he doesn't have time for, Aiden, he does protect and look after him. And for the past nine months, Aiden had gotten to love all the Dankworth family, he had gotten really close to them 'cause they showered him with love.
Aiden Dankworth had gotten to love his father, Ethan. He showered him with love and was always ready to protect him. He had gotten to love his sister, Hazel. She showered him with love and was there to keep him company whenever she had the chance. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚
And as for his mum, Emma, he loved and cherished her so much 'cause she showered him with immense love. He didn't get to experience a mother's love for a long time in his previous world, but he was enjoying one currently. For the past nine months, he had been enjoying a mother's love.
It was morning currently, Ethan had eaten and evacuated the house. Hazel wouldn't be going to the academy today 'cause they were on break, she hadn't been going for a week now. She had eaten breakfast, and so as, Little Aiden.
Emma fed him with solid food, she'll breastfeed him in the afternoon. The king wasn't sending knights to come look after them anymore, that had stopped about a month ago. Ethan's rank as chief hadn't increased, he hadn't been promoted, he was still a low-ranked chief.
..But the time for him to be promoted to an average-ranked chief was getting near...it was getting really near.
After feeding, Aiden, Emma kept him on the ground to walk, she was always joyous when Aiden was walking. And Aiden gains joy whenever he was walking also, it makes him glad, he was always eager to do it everyday.
She kept him on the ground and moved back a little. Hazel was also present, she was at her mum's back, she loved it whenever her little brother was walking also. Moving back, Emma glanced at her baby and voiced out,
"Little Aiden, come meet me...come meet mama".
Aiden was always eager to walk, he wanted to start doing things an adult does as fast as possible. Glancing at his mum, he thought to himself,
'Yes, mum, I'll come meet you'.
With that, he stood up from the ground and began walking. Now, taking these steps wasn't easy, he wanted to start walking as fast as an adult already, but it wasn't up to him...it wasn't his decision to make.
He was still a baby, so he'll have to be doing things baby's way. His mum was some meters away from him, and he was walking towards her slowly. Sometimes, when he takes a step, he'll stagger and almost fall to the ground, but he'll just hold himself...he must have to do this.
He sauntered slowly until he finally reached Emma without falling. The moment he reached where she was, she carried him and raised him, and with a smile on her face, she uttered,
"That's my boy".
And she gave him a quick peck on the forehead. Hazel just stood close to her mum with a smile on her face also, her little brother was making her smile.
******
It was mid-afternoon currently, Aiden was just sitting on the ground in his mum and dad's room. Emma does keep him on the ground sometimes for him to crawl and walk...she loved when he was walking.
She gave him breast milk for lunch, no solid food for lunch, he'll eat solid food for dinner. She must always breastfeed him every single day even if he was eating solid food now...it was compulsory. But after drinking breast milk, something he was expecting to happen didn't happen…
..He didn't get any rewards from the system.
He's been drinking breast milk for 9 months now. And for everyday he drinks breast milk, he gets rewarded for it, the daily quests. But the daily quest was gonna be different today, he won't get rewarded for drinking breast milk...he'll get rewarded for accomplishing something else.
He had been completing daily quests and getting rewards, he had been earning Exp and Skill points. So he was currently at level 4, he had leveled up three times now. And what does that mean? He had unlocked the Mind Conversation ability.
The ability that enables him speak to the system from the mind. So though he was a baby and couldn't speak well, he was already conversing with the system from the mind. The feeling was great, he was experiencing a lot of great things currently.
And at this moment, he wanted to ask the system why he didn't get rewarded after his mum breastfed him, or did she forget? Does the system forget things? Just as he was about to ask, the system's interface appeared in front of him while hearing a system's voice,
________
<Ding! Ding!>
<Daily quest>
<Take 20 steps without falling>
<Rewards>
<+10 Exp>
<+10 Skill points>
_________
Aiden just glanced at the interface with a confused baby look, what was this? Then he came to a realization,
'Seems like I'll be completing a different daily quest today, that's why even after drinking my mum's breast milk, I got no rewards'.
This was the first time he had been given such a quest since his nine months in this world, it's been only about drinking breast milk. And he doesn't plan on keeping it to himself, he was gonna ask his system about it from the mind.
'System, I need more explanation regarding this, why this quest today?'.
___
<Host, it wouldn't be about drinking breast milk alone anymore, you'll have to start completing other daily quests to get rewarded. Getting rewarded for drinking breast milk wouldn't be eradicated, but other daily quests would be added. Now, host would have to complete the quest of taking 20 steps without falling to get rewarded today>
___
Little Aiden understood the explanation, he wouldn't have to ask any more questions. So at this moment, he'll have to take twenty steps to complete the quest...it wasn't an easy thing to do. His walking wasn't that strong, so he barely manages to take 10 steps before falling.
Anytime his mum drops him on the ground to walk to her, reaching where she was always takes 8 to 9 steps. But now, the system had given him a quest to take 20 steps? Can he accomplish it? And if he doesn't accomplish it, he won't be rewarded.
