At the very early morning, Peter woke up under the twittering of small birds nearby. The sun hasn’t even come out yet. Due to the absence of sunlight for a long time, the environment is still feeling a little cold.

Although there was no light, it didn’t prevent Peter from seeing the surroundings clearly. After all, his eyesight is no longer normal. Even, he had a feeling that he might be able to entirely sense his environment with just his mind while closing the eyes completely.

Because of limited knowledge, Peter still had no clue about what happened to him. He decided to look for the information as soon as he got back to home.

Peter looked at the small head on his chest and rearranged the blanket with one hand, making sure that little guy would not feel cold.

In fact, Flora didn’t feel cold at all. To her, Peter was like a warm heat stove. As if feeling insecure, she was curling up her little body on Peter’s big upper body for entire night and she was still sleeping soundly. After all, she is still young and felt really tired from the yesterday’s journey.

Not to mention, the road situation has already become different from before and it was a little bumpy.

Peter turned his head to the side and noticed that Ben was still sleeping at the side. They watched the beautiful starry sky all night last night and simply just slept on the truckbed. It was a little cold but very nice to sleep while breathing fresh air and feeling breezes.

Glenn and Mark chose to simply sleep on the truckbed too. Their pickup truck was parked just behind the one which Peter and Ben were staying.

As for the other people, some chose to sleep on the seats of off-road vehicles. Most of them took out their camping tents and slept in them. Allen and Emma got into one tent.

They had a really fun time last night with the bonfire party. Most of basic materials were provided by Peter’s group. After drinking, eating and bragging, the relation between the two parties became closer invisibly.

Peter took out metal identity card and opened light curtain familiarly. He couldn’t fall asleep again so he decided to kill the time by browsing through the forum.

After a while, Peter took out mosquitoes repellent sprayer and sprayed it around as he heard the buzzing sounds. He was not worried about being bitten because mosquitoes couldn’t even pass through his skin.

That might be one of good benefits they got after they successfully condensed the vitality seed. The skin and muscles became very strong and thick so they don’t have to afraid of poisonous insects and annoying mosquitoes anymore.

Of course, if they could bite through their skin, it would be another matter. But don’t worry, they got all around detoxification potions. The cheapest ones are only around ten silver coins and they are very affordable.

But Peter was afraid that Flora would be bitten by mosquitoes. At first, he wanted to make the tent too and sleep inside. However, he denied it when he luckily found out the only can of mosquitoes repellent sprayer in a corner of his space ring.

Anyways, it would be much better for Flora to get fresh air even if her asthma was already much better.

And, he, himself, was a mobile humanoid heat stove. So, why not. Peter simply took out a blanket, placed it over Flora and stayed just like that.

Time passed bit by bit. The sun has already come out from the east and dim rays of sunlight has appeared. A squirrel suddenly came out of his home and looked at the uninvited guests at a spacious camping site interestingly.

At this time, some vitality have already appeared in the silent camping site. In fact, it is not even a particular camping site. It is just a spacious space among some sparse trees in the small roadside wood.

While several figures were busy preparing the breakfast, Peter was helping Flora in washing her face with a bottled water in hand. His other hand was not free either as he held a toothbrush.

Ben was standing nearby with a mug of hot coffee in hand and laughing at Peter. Now, Peter got another nickname given by Ben; Daddy Peter.

Early morning sunlight is not enough to warm the cold environment. Peter was afraid that Flora would get a cold accidentally so he hugged the little guy in his arms all the time.

After a bonfire was lit again, Peter simply occupied one of the nearest place to it. He put a bag of potato chips in Flora’s hands and patiently waited for the breakfast.

Looking at the little guy full of chips, Emma, who came back after solving some personal issues in the wood, pouted. Her rosy face looked really attractive. It seemed that someone had a nice time last night.

After sitting down beside Allen, Emma said, “You should not let the young child eat chips without anything in her stomach. It is unhealthy.”

Peter opened another bag of flavored potatoes chips for Flora and said bluntly, “Thanks for your reminder. But you forgot that we could solve these troubles with potions.”

Emma was speechless and annoyed for forgetting about magic world of her boyfriend. That is a world where mortal concepts don’t work. She quickly adjusted her mind and stopped talking.

Emma watched at the meat chunks on the thin metal rods, which were inserted around the bonfire, and swallowed the saliva quietly. She looked down at the mug with coffee in her hand and glanced at little guy on Peter’s lap enviously.

After all, everyone was waiting and only Flora was having a good time with various snacks. Moreover, she even got bottled juice. Peter was holding it closely in one hand so Flora could lean over and suck the juice through inserted pipe easily when she felt thirsty.

Emma was so jealous that she slapped Allen’s arm a few times. Unfortunately, Allen only got flavored energy bars.

Peter is an exception. Due to long term pollution under the poisonous curse, he unknowingly got a habit of eating snacks and chasing fantasy novels and comics. Even after the curse was accidentally purified, his already special thinking and habit became hard to change.

So, in his big space ring of several basketball courts size storage space, where the time is absent, he has a lot of snacks. Boxes of various snacks alone occupied a big space of nearly a basketball court. Potato chips are the dominant guys at there.

Yesterday, he gave several types of snacks like chips, chocolates and nuts to Flora and he found out that Flora preferred potato chips and coconut milk juice.

Coincidentally, coconut milk juice happened to be his favorite and he got a lot of stocks in his space ring. Since then, Flora was full of food and drink like a small chipmunk.

Peter spoiled her so much that she couldn’t even finish her small portion of dinner last night. Even though it was just a small chunk of roasted meat, she got no free space in her stomach.

Fortunately, Peter gave her a digesting potion before she fell asleep. Otherwise, Flora would really get a healthy problem this morning.

After the meat were fully roasted, the breakfast time started as they chatted warmly. Big men drunk their bitter coffee and looked at coconut milk juice of Flora enviously. But no one asked for it.

If they knew that Peter got tons of them in his space ring, they would have had a different idea.

Emma would be the first one to ask at that time.

When they finished the breakfast, they quickly dissembled the camping tents and put them back in their place neatly.

After a while, the small convoy said goodbye to the small wood, which housed them a night, and got on the dirt road beside the highway road again.

Unlike before, the road is so clean and it is very hard to see travelers and vehicles.

Nevertheless, they didn’t meet anything strange again after driving for entire morning. At noon, they simply solved their meals with another roasted meat meal again. They didn’t get into towns in fear of meeting another trouble.

After driving for entire day just like that, they reached the Mexico city, the state capital, at late night.
