Boy Decoded Secrets of Ancient "Manuscript" & Evolved his Village to Modern Tech...

this story is about a boy named Ash whose life changes for his interest on books Yes you heard it right books throughout history many tyrants tried to wipe out books there is specific term for it called bibloc cost which refers only to the burning of books however they all had failed books had been burned turned into ashes and dispersed into winds but it never fully disappeared there always had been some person who always saved the books from the Flames the books got buried in the garden to escape the eyes of the tant and after the

Flames were extinguished someone dug up their vague memories and recreated them the merciless and hardworking Tyrant who was constantly watching them and persistently trying to destroy these books is actually time itself books always faced a danger from the Tyrant of the time Ash was a 8-year-old boy living in a small village he one day rushes to Father folk to let him read some books folk was looking bothered by him and recognizes that he was Ash David's son Ash confirms that he was then he tells her that he wanted to read his books his whole library

was coved in dust and spiderweb he asks Ash what was the point of reading books living in a remote Village like that Ash replies that he had not thought about that and just wanted to have some fun time reading books fol asks him if he was really serious Ash asks him the same question and tells him that the point of reading a book was to enjoy in the first place what he had been doing Ash lectures folk that if one fails to entertain himself in that cold and cruel world then and he cannot survive in

that cruel world he tells folk at the previous day when the village Chief's wife was reading them a story he realized something that if he immerses himself in the world of books then his mind will be healed The Village they were living in had nothing that was why they needed books more than anything folk tells him that he knows he loves books but was not sure if he could read even a letter Ash replies at once that he cannot folk was pissed to hear that he wanted to read books but did not know how to

read then Ash asks him to teach him how to read as it was his job as a priest to teach people how to read like that he would also become the first student of father folu who had been assigned to that Village from the Royal capita folk replies that he has no interest in teaching a young brat like him how to read Ash sees that he had no other option and asks him for a book that was a bit easy to read folk asks him if he has any idea on how valuable those books were

it was risky to give them to anyone Ash promises that he won't ruin it he tells folk that the books were supposed to wear out naturally over time and get damaged folk replies that it was totally true Ash asks him how many times he thinks the books in his Library will be read before it gets damaged Ash tries to convince him that rather than rotting there it would be better if he reads them first folky knew very well what he was trying to do Ash tells him that he wants to lend a simple book from

him so that he could study the letters by himself folk again tells him that it was not that easy to learn Ash replies that he never thought that it would be easy he just wanted to borrow a book with scripture passages that he often recite during service then after looking how confident Ash was fol could decides to give him a copy of the manuscript that he wrote himself and the best thing was that it would not be a problem even if it gets damaged Ash was very happy to hear that and takes it he tells

folk that he will take good care of the manuscript then he asks folk how to read the first sentence folk was not happy to hear that as Ash had promised that he would not ask any other question once he gets a book Ash insists that he would learn the Rest by himself if he knows just that one sentence then foli tells the meaning on that sentence it was like a prayer to the mighty Gods then foli tells Ash to get out of there now that he has taught him one sentence Ash happily leave that place

he was thinking that as the first step to the joys of Life his village nosca also known as the farming Village was without a doubt a hick toown in the middle of nowhere what was special about Ash was that he could remember his apparent p life memories even though the memories were fragmentary and vague he did not know what kind of person he was he knew one thing for sure that his current life was hopelessly inconvenient and poor as compared to his previous life there was no such thing such as engines horses and chemical fertilizers

in that rural farming Village they had to work so hard each and every day until they get dizzy Ash was only 8 years old but still was an excellent farmer there and he also had back pain due to that reason he could only Envy his previous life it was so much better than the one he was currently living he was craving for the delicious foods that he saw in his memories but in his current life if he does not work then he will starve to death there was barely any entertainment in that life it was

just too hard for him to pass his days there and in such boring world he had finally found some ways to find some entertainment in order to enjoy the contents of the book he needed to First learn the language he gets back to his father father and mother and they were shocked to see his with a manuscript in his hand he immediately gets to work and starts deciphering the verses from the knowledge he had of the first sentence he spends days figuring out the rest phrases his mother tells his father that he was really passionate

to read but they believe that books were useless and they will have to teach him that his father thought that men should not be reading books and should take care of the farm instead his mother was not fully in support of his father she believed that farming should be the priority but learning to read books might also be helpful and also she was just happy to see him enjoying the books the next day Ash goes to folk and asks him if he could now borrow another book foli asks him if he was already bored of

that one Ash replies that it took him one month to understand it folky tells him to stop kidding as it was impossible to learn all the letters in just one month but Ash still tells him that he had learned all the letters in that book and asks for another one folk laughs at him and tells him to make it a bit more believable if he wants to lie Ash gets pissed off off and asks him what would he do for him if he proves him wrong folk again tells him that it was impossible Ash asks

him to lend him any book he wants under his supervision if he proves him wrong folk Grins and agrees to his condition then Ash thinks and tells him that he has come up with a great way to prove it and asks him for a pen and paper folk asks him what he was trying to do Ash replies that he will write down a contract stating that he would lend him any books as a punishment for calling him a liar with that he could prove him wrong at the same time then folk asks him how they

were going to proceed in that case Ash replies that he does not need to do anything but still it would be good if he apologizes for calling a liar to a pure child like him and make him cry folk was pissed to see his acting then he tells Ash to Simply start writing the contract and prove him wrong Ash lifts the feather and the ink to write and starts writing letters he tells folk that he was not used to writing or using a quill pen he also accepts that his handwriting was terrible but somehow he

writes something and asks folk if could read it folky seized the paper and was absolutely stunned to see that he could actually write as he had claimed in just one month he learned to write and from scratch and could write a contract he asks him how did he do it then Ash tells him that he just applied the letter he remembered to other sentences he taught him then he had to guess the letters he did not know from Context folk was still finding it hard to believe that it was just a guess Ash asks him

if it was not enough proof for him he tells folk that the contract was already set up now and now he would like to read another religious book or a similar book with simple vocabulary thus like that Ash gets unlimited pass to borrow any book he wanted from folk he starts spending a lot of time with the books and soon winter arrives folk one day sees him carrying a lot of books and asks him if he was planning to borrow them all Ash replies that he had already finished reading them all he reminds him that

he told him when he borrowed it last time folk remembers it and was surprised to see how much Ash was passionate towards reading he hardly knew many adults who could read that much and the fact that he could also read so fast by learning on his own was proof of his high intelligence Ash was wondering what he should read next then folk thinks about it and tells Ash that they need to talk about something Ash wonders what the matter was as sits in the chair in front of him then fol tells him that he wanted

him to read a book for him he believed that Ash was now smart enough to understand the words inside that book it was a thick and old book folky tells him that it was custommade and asks him to take close look Ash opens the the book and sees that its binding was different from the rest books it had beautiful handwriting folk asks him if he was understanding what was written in it Ash replies with sadness that he cannot read anything there were some letters that looked similar to the ones he knew but he could not

read most of them so he had no clue over all what he was saying Ash asks folk what kind of book it was folk replies that it was a manuscript of a book that was believed to originate from the early period of an ancient civilization Ash was shocked to hear that that folk asks him if there were not stories about ancient civilizations in the books he read earlier Ash hesitates and replies that there were there actually were stories about the legends of ancient civilizations but he thought that it was only a myth folk had been

trying to decipher that book for a long time while he was studying in the capital he talked to his several researchers several times and looked over all past researchers but he still could not read it not even a single line and because he could not achieve the result he was sent to that Village as a punishment but he did not give up there and spent a lot of money to get that manuscript there he worked on it very hard every night Ash asks him why he was so much interested in a book from ancient civilizations

Flo himself did not had the answer to that question he himself was wondering about it but he assumes that it was the same reason as Ash to add life to his body and mind Ash understands his feelings and tells him that they have no other choice in that case folk agrees they both knew very well that folk was not going to stop at all then after some Ash tells folk that he had never expected ancient civilization to actually exist folky asks him if that was why he looked surprised folk himself also knew that there might

be some false rumors but as the manuscript shows the ancient civilizations did exist Ash realizes that it means that all the books he had ever read talked about ancient Technologies and objects from ancient civilizations folky tells him that he never said that those Treasures totally existed just thinking about all the amazing things they read about makes Ash mesmerized all the amazing food and enough clothes medicines to speed up the healing process and a lamp to keep on the light Without fire in it they realizes that in ancient days they could build big cities with all

the advanced architecture and the world will be connected by a means of transportation faster than horse Ash was so glad to know that a life that he thought would be out of his reach in that timeline could be found in ancient civilizations so he was thinking that if he was able to decipher the ancient languages that he can unlock the mysteries of the ancient civilizations in that way he can bring back some richness in his life that he recalled from his past life now he was determined that by all means he will investigate about the

ancient civilizations FK calls him reliable Ash then looks at the book very closely and tells folk that it was true what he told him earlier that some of the letters were similar folk replies that all the researchers have agreed to that so far then he explains Ash that ancient civilizations were of two types early and late the characteristics of the early ancient civilizations were passed on to the later ones and they have been passed on to the present day when the writings were passed on many of the characters were modified over the time a huge

amount of text has been lost that particular manuscript was believed to be from an ancient civilization Ash now understands why he could not read most of the words then he asks fola to let him have another look at the book fola gives him the book and tells him to let him know if he observes anything unusual a lots of the letters were lost and it was so much that he could not read the book at all there were a lot of letters in the ancient time it seemed and Ash wonders if there was some other

way to read them he something strikes his mind and he remembers that once his father taught him to Mark the end of a task with a specific symbol it meant to make the fields better he says to folk at once Ash tells him that it was an old spell then he finally understands that the letters did not represent a sound but each letter was depicting something unique he concludes that the letters were ideograms he tells this to fol once that the letters were not letters but pictures then they writes some characters from the book and

makes a sentence using that and finally it made some sense folky gets what Ash was trying to say there was a particular character to represent folk in another for ash like that the ancient words could contain an unknown amount of information folk finds it all very interesting and it would also explain why there were so many letters they just made three new letters using that style of writing they realizes that if it was real then even if the ancient civilization used such a large number of characters still they all fits together very well they soon

gets mad after realizing what a jackpot they had hit it was a huge Discovery and folk was wondering how they would prove it he was very eager to prove it to the world Ash tells him to calm down folk was glad that he took Ash's help and it was a success Ash tells him that he was overacting and that he did not do much and ever since then folks start studying the ancient language at a furious Pace Ash knew that at that rate he might get sick if left alone so he was checking on him

while borrowing books folk was not sleeping much and was also skipping meals Ash warns him but he does not even listen it was very unusual Ash realizes that just checking on him won't do any good in that world the life expectancy of people was very low people were scared of small common cold as it could lead to death without medicines a 40-year-old man was considered old and a 60 years old was considered a monster even Ash was in a hurry to live his life to the fullest he was used to reading books now he wanted

to know about the ancient civilization as soon as possible he was not in a hurry though but his father never understood his mindset he always told him how useless books were and asked him to help him in everyday work Ash also happily obeyed him each time once his father tells him that Mr quidd Has Come For pedaling and they were going to sell him the winter wheat Harvest Ash was shocked to see that it was that time of the year already then quid arrives and greets David and Ash d David tells quid that he was

lucky that the demon did not get him this time as well quid replies that he was very good at escaping Ash was wondering something whether the demons were wild monsters or they were just thieves the problem was that if he asked someone about it then he would most probably get a childish answer quid looks at the wheat and tells them that it was of good quality and nicely picked that winter he agrees to buy it for four copper coins David asks him how much it was in Iron quid replies that it was equal to 80

iron coins David decides to buy salt and some usual herbs and also some grinding stones and fever reducer from quid in return then quidd tells David the price of each item then David's eyes falls on something particular quid tells him that it was honey wine and was worth 20 iron coins David asks him for a small discount quid knew that he could still buy it in real worth Ash tells them that they need to buy the cloths before the wine or else his mother would be very angry at them quidd replies that it was a

wise decision and gives it to him Ash also asks him for two needles but David was still staring at the honey wine quid gives up and agrees to give it as a bonus to him and asks him to not tell anyone about it David was the happiest man alive after hearing that he tells Quid how great he was Ash was just wondering how many times he was planning to make his mother angry quidd replies that as it was just four copper coins it was okay Ash was curious and asks quid if it was really okay

with him quid replies that if the customer wants to buy something then as a merchant he cannot really refuse it Ash tells him that he was asking about the price quidd replies that it would not be any good if he takes it to the city so it was better to give it as a bonus then Ash Grins and Whispers at him that he had calculated the wrong price quid nervously asks him what he meant by that then Ash tells him that if they exclude alcohol then their total would be 59 iron coins and since the

winter wheat was worth 80 coins even if he buys alcohol at original price some changes would be left Ash warns him that if he tries to Swindle him that he would have to go to the church and grieve and then warn other peoples to not commit the same mistakes as him and then the priest folk would tell all the villages and thus he won't be able to have any business in that Village then Ash asks quid if it was an honest mistake from his side quid replies that just like anyone else a skilled Merchant like

him could also make mistakes but then Ash tells him the names of people with him he had done the same mistake in the past he tells quid that he was a trustworthy Merchant to the Village due to which he won't tell it to anyone Ash promises that he will not do it if he stays a good Merchant and gains his trust quidd was sweating and respects Ash and thanks him then he decides to repay Ash with some thing Ash looks at the cart and a particular fabric cloth fascinates him quid gives it to him at

once Ash asks him if he was sure that he wants to give it to him quid nods Ash was sure that his mother would be pleased to see that and thanks to quid Ash knew that with that he made quid a trustworthy Merchant as long as they get a fair price for things it was all good then David tells Ash that they should head home now Ash agrees he tells quid that it was good experience trading with him his father asks him what he was talking about Ash replies that they were having a small talk

then later Ash goes to folk again to check if he was having food properly folky gets pissed at him and asks him why he was acting like his wife he tells Ash that he was too cocky to be meddling with adults affairs Ash replies that if a child was worrying about him then he should review his behavior that he should behave like an adult first foli knew that Ash was a smooth talker and it was hard to win an argument against him then Ash asks him if he had been able to read anything yet folk

replies that he had not been yet but there has been progress that he has identified a few names which appears very frequently and that was a good news for them as if there was a name that was passed down to the present then they can decipher it Ash was happy to her that he had done so much already folky tells him that it was nothing then folk asks Ash if he was about to borrow books again Ash replies that he would like to do that and asks him if he could make a few choices folk

reminds him that it was in the contract that he would be able to select any books he wants Ash was thinking about taking some story books that day he also wanted some books on general education Ash wanted more information to develop that place he tells folk that he was going to the cathedral with the books he goes there and reads the travel Diaries he also reads technical books on agriculture and smithing it was possible that a lot of it was passed down from Ancients he was reading Botanical guide and was wondering if there was any

benefits of the plants that he knows about then suddenly the door opens and a cute little girl of his age comes in and tells hello to Ash the girl had been watching Ash for a while now and she had always found him very strange he was always so composed and was very mature she feels like he smiles but also does not at the same time but then she she saw him running towards the church happily like a child she was stunned the church was a place of learning but it was hard to learn anything there

as Folk was so cranky the others were always working or looking after their families so she had never seen anyone studying there at all and then she heard that Ash has been going to the church to study language and read books so she was wondering why he was studying and what made him so happy she always hated studying and believed that there was no way in that world that it could be somehow fun but looking at the genuine smile of Ash she was really eager to know the reason thus she had now reached the doors

of the church for it Ash sees Micah and asks her how she was mic realized that she was fine and sees that he was reading a book even then Ash asks her what was the matter she asks him if it was true that he has been studying there Ash tells her that it was true and he had been borrowing books from father folk to read she asks him if it was fun Ash immediately replies with much excitement that it was extremely fun he asks her if she has to do anything with f F and if

he should call him out Micah replies yes then Ash goes in and calls out fol then fol comes out with a smiling face and asks her what brought her there Ash could see the Discrimination very clearly then with an adorable face she asks folk to teach him how to read and write Ash knew that Micah was the daughter of the village chief that meant that she was ought to be able to read and write his Village's literacy rate was close to zero Micah's father kleene The Village Chief and her mother yua were the sole exception

since they needed to be able to read and write and do arithmetic in order to manage the village he assumes that Micah must have seen him running towards the church again and again and decided to get educated herself as well Micah's mother Yuka was the very person who opened his eyes to the wonders of books she was the one who gave him hopes to live in that boring World Ash could not even imagine where he would be if it was not for her folk tells Micah that he will help her to read and write as

it was his job as a priest then he grabs Ash and tells her that unfortunately he has other very important things to do but Ash was also a very good literate person so he would teach her and as they were of the same age it would be easy for them to get along Ash had no idea how he was strangled in that situation Micah also agrees and tells folk that she would ask Ash whenever he is busy Ash was so shocked to see that nobody took even his opinion folk Whispers in his ears to tell

him to not disappoint him as he was his number one student Ash was not sure if was an honor or trap then with that folk he tells Ash to handle it and goes back inside his room to decipher the ancient texts then meaka asks Ash if they can start Ash also sees another advantage in that if Micah becomes literate and starts reading books then he will have another reader on his side and that would be another form of entertainment for him Ash tells her that he was ready then he brings out a book and tells

her that they will start with that one Micah asks him if that was the book he reads first Ash replies that folk often uses that book during his priest work that book contained all the holy verses that he usually recites so Ash thought that it would be easy to learn since it had words he had heard before then Ash opens the book and wonders where should they start with Micah suggests him to start with the book he had started with Ash thus takes out the manuscript copy that he read for the first time then he

reads the verse and asks her if she was familiar with it Micah grabs the manuscript and tries to read it but she could not then Ash goes word by word and explains her all the letters but Micah was lost in admiring how awesome Ash was looking Ash snaps her out of her dreams and asks her if she was getting it then he again reads the verse he explained its meaning that the wolf God who was referred to as very strong was worshiped by people before having a baby for its healthy life Micah did not know

what strong really meant Ash understands that he will have to start from the fundamentals he tells her that she can also use the word strong to describe how she thinks thinks or feels Ash tells her to ask him anything she does not know and if he also won't have any answer then they can go to folk together then she asks him about the wise monkey god in the verse Ash tells her that wise was just another word for smart he tells her that the monkey God was prayed while studying for wisdom then Micah asks him

if they should say a prayer there Ash agrees he was happy that she was keeping up with him he tells her that it was okay if she does not know anything and then then starts praying to the monkey god together and then Ash teaches her a bunch of other stuff folko was glad to see that they were doing so great on their very first day he asks them if they do not think that it was time for them to head home now the sun was already set Ash realizes that it was late already Micah also

gets up as she needed to get home as soon as possible but the problem was that she hated darkness and needed to get back home Ash offers to walk with her Micah tells him that her home was in the opposite way to his house but Ash still insists that he cannot let him walk alone in the dark Micah blushes after hearing that folk also smiles and tells Ash to walk her home safely Ash says yes and wonders why was folk smiling like that then they gets going Ash apologizes to Micah on their way for making

her stay for so late Micah tells him that it was not him fault and that it was fun with him she liked that he learned to read and write so quickly even though he was around the same age as her but Ash knew that it was possible because he had memories of his past life he was lately wondering what would happen if everyone finds out that he has those memories he decides to keep it a secret for the moment he was scared that everyone would think of him as weird and crazy if he ever discloses

it and if they highlights it more then he might get very awkward Ash tells Micah that she learned so many new words that day which was amazing makaka was happy to hear that and tells him that there were still a lot of characters that she did not know about Ash tells her that she will learn about all of it in no time if she keeps reading at the same pace Micah could not believing that she was actually learning how to read Ash sees that she was being derailed and pulls her back to the right path

he tells her that she was about to get tripped over some makaka was really blushing when he was grabbing her hand Ash tells her that they should hold hands for the rest of the way as the road was getting more and more darker Micah was shocked to see that Ash tells her that he cannot afford to let her get hurt as she was Irreplaceable makaka was R after hearing that Ash asks her if everything was all right he told her like that as she was the only daughter of the village Chief makaka was really nervous

and shy and asks him what book he was holding Ash replies it was a book about different trees and herbs makaka asks him if it was a fun book he replies that it was extremely fun to read since it might come in handy Micah asks him in what way it might come handy Ash tells her that the book tells about trees and herbs that cannot be eaten or turned into medicine that it covers any tree or herb with a practical usage he tells her that if they find the herbs or trees in that book then

might be able to prepare taste your meals or even make new types of medicines Micah wonders if that was even possible Ash tells her that it was possible and that was why books were such amazing things the church had plenty of books and he believed that Micah would also enjoy them once she reads it Micah promises him that she will study very hard with him then they reaches her home and she thanks Ash for his help Ash tells her that it was okay then he starts leaving which makes Micah feel bad they held each other's

hands for so long and now he was leaving just like that she was cursing him but Ash was busy thinking about the wild herbs that grow in that season the next day the sky was clear and Ash was all set to go and Forge the wild herbs it was something that he had been waiting for a while people around him were wondering what got him so pumped all of a sudden there were all the other kids as well for the same job but they were not as excited as Ash then their instructor tells them all

to partner up with someone as there were reports of bears showing up deeper in the forest she tells them to not go too far then Micah comes to Ash and tells him that he was looking very motivated Ash replies to her that he was a she had read the Botanical book thoroughly for that very day she asks him if he was about to look for the herbs that are used for food and Medicine Ash agrees he tells her that the book had a few similar ones so he plans on starting his search with those makaka

was wondering if she had seen any of those herbs in her life Ash tells her that she might have and can see them if she just looks at the drawing book then another boy named jigel comes in and grabs Ash hand and tells him that he will be coming with them Ash sees that he had been to the direction they were about to go earlier jigel tells him that there was a pack of bracken there last year then Micah also joins her team and wishes Ash best of luck Ash tells her to be careful as

well jigel and his friends did not like the way they were getting close then Ash jigel and another boy goes inside the jungles and as expected there were a lot of bracken there that year as well Ash was glad that they managed to find the patch so quickly Ash was thinking about quickly look for the plants that he saw on the guide he picks plenty of herbs and at last he finds an aloe vera plant he had heard that aloe vera was good healer for wounds and upset stomachs it was also good for skin care

and was safe to eat it was a very useful plant which was invaluable in his previous life he was sure that it will come in handy in that life as well it was a huge Discovery for him and he was thinking how to use it to the fullest but suddenly something strikes in his head and he gets unconscious when he wakes up he sees that he was in an unknown Place alone he tries to recall what happened he recalls that he was in the forest to forage for wild herbs and then his head hurt and

he got knocked out he sees that there was some bleeding from his head but now it had stopped he had no clear memory but he assumes that he staggered around the forest by himself for a while and that was how he ended up there he realizes that he was lost and need to find a way to get back to his village he wanted to keep helping folk decoding the ancient language and also wanted to teach makaka more but above all he wanted to read a lot of more books he just wanted to get back to

his village at all cost then he sees the Sun and from its position he finds out the north Direction he was feeling confident that he will be able to get back to his village the sun was about to set and it would be a bad call to try to rush to the village and making the situation worse he decides to stay there for the night he checks all the stuff he had at present he had enough stuff to make it through the night he had dropped the wild herbs he had collected he plans to start

a fire before it completely gets dark he also needed to find a source of water for drinking as his throat was all dry then he sees an aloe vera tree there as well he remembers that he had found an aloe vera tree right before passing out he decides to collect some from that tree and starts cutting an aloe vera leaf but while doing that he hears some sound of running water he follows the sound and finds out that there was a river nearby he want wanted a gulp of water immediately but he knew that even

though the river looks clean there was a risk of ingesting parasites or catching an infection so he thinks to better not do it he wanted to boil the water but he had nothing that he could use as a pot he decides to use that water for some basic things he finds the riverbank a good spot to camp for the night then he remembers that he can use the aloe vera leaf as an ointment for his head injury he starts the fire and was glad that he now had heat and light he chops off the aloe

vera packs it in the towel and wraps it around his head injury the warm sensation from the wound disappears immediately also the jelly-like insides of the aloe had a sort of raw vegetable or fruit flavor to them he eats them and although it was raw wild herb it was still pretty tasty it even quenched his thirst to a great extent it even quenched his thirst to a great extent so he washed it in the river roasted it and ate that too he was now thinking that he will be able to make it through the night

he wanted some protein in his diet now he was hoping for a snake to show up so that he could drink its blood and like that both hunger and thirst could be taken care of he keeps thinking about it and like that the night passes he gets up in the morning and was feeling very tired he was also hungry and thirsty and was thinking of having some aloe vera to eat again he was managing with the moisture from the aloe vera but if he needed to move around the forest then he required water at all

cost to drink and also the fact that it might cause him harm if he consumes too much aloe vera he wonders if there was some other plant that retains a large amount of water he had to chose between that or finding a way to boil the river water then he finally finds a solution he makes a paper pot it was a handy tool although it was made of paper the pot could be held over an open flame and the paper would not catch fire and he can use it to boil water he was wondering if

it was possible with paper then it should also work with leaves leaves were in fact harder to burn he decides to try it he finds some broad bamboo grass and makes a small pot of it the hangs it with a stick and puts it above fire and with that he sees that the water actually boils he was really happy to see that it worked he was really excited to drink it he takes a Gulp and feels like he came back to life he makes more such pots and boils a lot of water to quench his

thirst all he needed was some food now and then his eyes falls on the fishes present in the river he realizes that it would be a tasty food option there since he had fire it was a lot safer for him to eat fish rather than wild herbs he luckily had his herb collecting basket with him he knew the procedure of catching the fish with it from experience he catches some fish and was glad that he would finally get some protein he roast the fish and prepares to eat in that way he had no longer any

fear of starving to death he was able to think more clearly after having food and water he decides to work on getting more food and water that day and then he will work on getting back home on the other day day he was ready to eat the fish but then someone appears behind him Yuka was taking care of the food of fuk like always foli tells her thanks for always helping him Yuka replies that he has been taking good care of Micah lately so it was all right her studies were important to both her and

their family she also tells him that he has been looking more healthy ever since Ash started visiting him regularly folk replies that they get along well then makaka rushes in shouting her mother's name she hugs her and had tears in her eyes she tells her mother that Ash had not returned from the woods that he had disappeared and jigel was the first to notice it she told everyone else that Ash might be somewhere nearby so they should search deeper in the forest but then jigel said that it would be dangerous for them since Bears might

show up and they decided to head back to the village and take help of the adults makaka asks Yuka what should they do if Ash was attacked by some bear she was scared that something bad would happen to him Yuka tells her that everyone in the village will search for him and he will be be fine nyaka was still scared to think that Ash might have already fall prey to the bear then folky tells her that she should not be wasting her tears like that that if he sheds all of her tears now then she

won't have enough when Ash returns folk assures her that Ash would return as some normal bear could never hurt the devilish Ash he was sure that Ash would even negotiate with the Grim Reaper and come back foli tells makaka that tears were a girl's main weapon so she should not waste it like that finally after hearing all that makaka stops crying the whole village gathers to find Ash it had been 3 days since Ash had gone missing the search was on but it was hard to imagine a Lost Child returning from the forest alive but

still folk believed in Ash but Yuka was already proceeding with Ash's funeral she was not expecting a child to survive in the forest for 3 Days folk asks her if she was sure about it she replies that she was but folk still tells her that he does not have an issue with proceeding with the funeral but Ash might show up after it in that situation Yuka tells him that it would be great if that happens and he should share that sentiment with Ash's parents Mr David and Mrs Sheba Yuka believe that getting their hopes up

that their son might return someday might upset them folk also thinks that she's got a point but still it was very hard for even him to consider Ash dead he believed that Ash would use whatever knowledge he had gained from the books to survive in the forest he thinks about Ash for a while and then tells UA that they should really wait a little longer before conducting the funeral they did not had any conclusive evidence but still folk had a feeling that Ash would return right at that moment Ash appears and asks them what was

going on there and why was there such a huge crowd gathered everyone was shocked to see that Ash was back safely and then his parents rushes and hugs him they starts crying and tells him that he did a bit too much to piss them off this time Ash was clueless folka then tells him that he knew he would return back Ash asks folk to explain him what was going on there then folk laughs tells him that they were about to conduct his funeral Ash was also now shocked to hear that he asks them why they

reached such a conclusion he knew that he had been missing in the woods for 3 days but it was not much of a deal to conduct his funeral his mother shouts on him for telling about it so casually and folk keeps laughing then Micah comes to Ash and asks him if he really was the real Ash he tells her that he was the real Ash and was safe and sound but was a bit tired but then makaka breaks down and blames him for disappearing like that she was glad that he was back home then folk

asks him how did he survive in the forest for 3 days then Ash tells them that while he was eating some fish a man suddenly appeared behind him it was Mr ban they both then was silent as usual he was the only professional hunter in their Village and Ventures deep into the forest all alone to hunt game he was a real Woodland specialist he was neither talkative nor sociable so all the kids in the village finds him very scary then he explained ban everything thing and tells him that he was lost and asks for his

help to get back home ban nods and agrees Ash was so glad to run into ban and now he could head home it saved a lot of his time and energy then with his guidance Ash found his way to the Village he also managed to collect some incredible herbs over the past 2 days especially Alo Vera but then he sees everyone was still staring at him lividly he realizes that he made them all worry so much and apologizes his mother and Micah start scolding him for being so nonchalant ban was still there waiting for all

that to be over folky tells him that he knew nothing could ever kill him even if it tries Ash tells him that it was not true and he would also die if something attacks him a few days after all that drama Ash sees some angry-looking adults scolding jigel apparently he had shoved him off the tree as a prank but Ash fell for real and got wound up and stranded in the forest and got lost later ban came to the forest and examined the footprints left at the forest and found out who the culprit was it

was impressive to think that he would figure it out just from the footprints Ash was sure that jigel hates him now but it did not bother him that much since he made it back to the Village safely but it was good if jigel learned his lesson as something worse might happen if he keeps pranking people he wonders if anyone else would come back alive if it happens with them he was glad that he ran into hunter ban it was a good experience with him he was a very skilled Hunter who alone provided wild meat for

the villagers and also protected them from dangerous animals but he was amazed to discover that ban was also good at collecting wild plants and herbs and knew everything about aloe vera as well there were many things ban knew about wild plants that Ash would never find in the books alone so asked him to make him his Apprentice to learn more and develop more foods and medicines for the village and ban accepts him as his Apprentice easily after that his life proceeds as normal he started assisting ban and also begins his Botanical research Alo vera leaf

was the first thing on his list since he used it to treat his wound in the forest it was as useful as it was in his past life and furthermore as it was readily available he could experiment without worrying about it running out he was testing the aloe vera with a mouse it had two wounds he had applied aloe vera to one and nothing to the other and sees that the wound with aloe vera treatment was healing much faster it was thus concluded that aloe vera was a good ointment but then he sees that the

area of application could also develop a rash he assumes that its effects vary on how much is applied and for how long as he progressed with his tests and experiments he slowly but surely improved his workspace as well he realizes that paper a quill pen and ink would be necessary for his research so he bargained with quid quid was scared of him due to their previous interaction he told Ash that he understands that Ash does not have any disposable income and can pay it off later in the future he was experimenting on the mouse whom

he called the little guinea pig he believed that it was best option for experiments as they never refuse anything he did not feel bad for them at all he considered them as enemies in that world they all tried to Stave off hunger so those invasive rodents who do nothing but eat up their Harvest need to be experimented so for a vital experiment Ash did not mind roughing them up on purpose or Force feeding them excessive amount of medicine he hated them so much that he was numb to their Agony all thanks to his daily experiments

with the little guinea pig he pretty much knew the ins and outs of aloe vera now he knew all the benefits and downsides of using aloe vera but he still needed to find out whether all those effects will carry over to the human body in the same way which means it was time for him to experiment on his own body its Curative effects would be the easiest to verify he decides to start off with an aloe Sal it was created by munching the aloe vera and then mixing it with animal fat and then boiling it

and once it solidifies it is ready he applies it to one of his hands and waits to see what would happen after some time the hand he had applies to was looking clean and soft while the other one was still very rough he was rally happy to see such positive results in his own hand then his mother asks him if he could help her collecting some water and gives him the bucket she sees that one of his hands was looking very clean and pretty she touches them and asks him how did he do it Ash

replies that he was testing the aloe vera as a topical ointment and it appeared to be very effective his mother was shocked to hear that there was an ointment he made that could make rough skin that soft she asks him if he had some left for hers Ash replies that he has she immediately grabs his hands and asks him to borrow some for her but he also warns her that it might not agree with the makeup of her body so she should not use it if she experiences any pain or itch his mother agrees and

asks him to give some to give some to her she then applies some aloe vera gel to her hands and it immediately feels nice Ash was not expecting it to please his mother so much he decides to make a big batch for her then he wonders if others would also take interest in it not just women but children and women as well there were plenty of people in the village with rough hands he wonders if something like that would help to improve the overall villager life the aloe vera Salve had been proven effective and it

did not took long for her mother's hands to be smooth and clean it also Drew far more interest than he had expected Micah also showed interest after looking at his smooth hands and then all the other ladies showed interest he told them that it was a work in progress and they all easily cooperated he was now sure that it was improving the quality of life in the village but still he had this feeling that he can do so much more than that he feels like some people would even agree to pay for it that it

crosses his mind that he can ask quid and have him to do some test Marketing in the city he assumes that there would be even more people interested there in the city if it earns him some Revenue then he could even buy new things and further improve the quality of life in the village he reads even more books for knowledge about various things Micah asks him if he was reading another difficult book Ash shows the book to her and asks her if she can read it Mah reads the book name it was livestock manual Ash

was happy to see that she could read it and tells her that her reading skills had improved a lot she asks him if livestock means horses and cows Ash replies that it was true and explains her that it refers to certain animals that they can raise and keep his stock makaka starts drooling and asks him if he means meat Ash also starts drooling and replies to her that she was right he tells her that if his aloe vera salv becomes a success then he will be able to earn ear money and he was thinking of

starting something new with it in the village however his research told him that raising livestock was not that easy he would need a sizable income first there were many expenses to sustain animals as livestocks chickens were very easy to raise however the clucking draws wolves and demons out of the forest raising them in an unwalled farming Village would be certainly difficult his research had also taught him that demons were clearly distinct from regular dangerous animals such as wolves folk once told him that a demon raid wiped out the later period ancient civilization or something of

that nature so it was a mystery about what the demons really were so he decides to buy iron farming tools instead he was still not sure about it makaka tells him that he was simply amazing Ash tells her that he A's not done anything special yet she replies that his aloe vera Salve was great as her hands were also now super soft and clean after some time of applying it Ash grabs her hands to take a look which makes her her blush he sees that there was no rashes or itchiness he then realizes that she

was feeling awkward and apologizes for suddenly pouncing on her hands makaka replies that it was fine and she does not mind Ash realizes that she was young but still a lady and even though he was of the same age as hers in that life he still had the consciousness of his previous life so he decides to treat her the way a lady should be treated like a gentleman Micah then tells him that nothing was itching or hurting her hands Ash was glad to hear that and asks her if her mother faced any irritation makaka replies

that her mother was also very happy with the outcome then they again resume a their studies Yuko was still in shock that Ash had invented such a medicine in such a young age he had in a way rediscovered technology from the ancient civilization that was a job for the researchers affiliated with the church and not just from any local temple but only to those who serve in the capital it was hard to believe that such a young boy managed to do some things so big they now had a product that still does not exist in

the capital they had always tried to make the best of their limited resources available there in the village always wondering if they could leave a legacy for their next Generation but now they had managed to invent a new product in the entire world but she was scared that after gaining attention there will be people who will not recognize it as Ash's invention she decides to take action and keep Ash and the villagers out of harm she plans to invite Ash to a dinner and discuss about the future of the medicine she she wanted to ask

him what he himself intends then after getting the invitation Ash was very happy he goes to their house and knocks on the door makaka opens the door and was wearing a New Dress Ash tells her that the dress suits her very well miaka also tells him that he was looking very good looking at her behavior he assumes that greeting guests and showing them inside was putting a toll on her even if the guest was him he recalls that his parents were also on the edge back at home they made sure that he wears the best

clothes he had then Yuka comes and tells Ash that he was indeed looking like a gentleman Ash replies that he was honored to hear that then she invites him inside they starts the dinner and Ash was amazed to see all the delicious food on the table Yuka tells him to eat it up before it gets cold Ash was also in a hurry to do that it was hard to resist such delicious food he starts eating and you could tells him that he really was a gentleman as he had such good table manners Ash replies to

her that every one in that house was a neat eater so he was just following their example he then appreciates Yu's cooking he tells her that he envies his husband then realizes that he was too young to say that Yuka blushes and tells him that she was flattered then she tells her husband that Ash complimented him and they laughs Ash realizes that Yuka was really the most elegant and refined woman in the village it made sense as she was not from there she was born and raised as the daughter of an influential family in the

capital the story was that when the current Village Chief Mister kleene went to the capital to start his apprenticeship the two of them then fell madly in love and he took her hand in marriage there was some sort of heroic tale with that but he was never told that much he wonders if it was a story that children should not hear then after eating the dinner he thanks them for inviting him over Yuka was glad that he enjoyed it the she tells him that she wants to ask him about something Ash tells her to feel

free about it and asks him anything she wants it was about the Alo Sal that he made she says she asks him if it was true that he was planning on selling it through quidd in the city market Ash replies that he was still just considering about it Yuka tells him that the medicine will sell well and his family will make a lot of money and they will Stand Out Among the rest families Ash realizes that having such a clear divide in wealth was bound to seow Discord among the villagers she asks him if it

was true that he has a very Advanced vocabulary Ash Chuckles and replies that it was true as he was Master Folk's number one disciple Ash knew that he barely taught him anything but it was a convenient excuse Yuka tells him that folk must be very proud of the fruits of his labor and it was making the talk much easier as he was also so educated she tells him that what he was doing was a very good thing but to make sure that no issues arises in the future they would like to come up with ideas

with him together Ash thanks her for pointing that out as he was about to cause a lot of trouble to the Village Ash realizes that he had not though that far ahead wasting money for personal stuff was never his plan but still he might end up creating jealousy it was obvious that his father would spend the money on booze and then brag about it but buying new items for the village was expensive so he needed to save up the money for it yet saving the money would lead to issues he was wondering what should he

do and then makaka shouts at her mother to quit bullying Ash Ash was not feeling bullied at all Yuka asks Micah if she was daring to defy her mother makaka replies that if she was going to be mean to Ash then she will make him pay even if she was her mother her mother asks her why would she do that as Ash was trying to cause trouble Ash nods and agrees to her he knew that if Yuka had not intervened then he might have destroyed his relations with the Villagers makaka shouts that it was not

true and tells her mother that Ash said he was saving money for the village so that he can buy livestock and farming tools that he was really trying to figure out what would benefit everyone the most her mother acts like she had no idea about it makaka keeps telling how amazing Ash was her mother asks her if he was also very handsome and lovely person she replies that it was right in the flow Ash blushes and makaka freaks out she passes out and his father takes her inside Ash asks yua if they were putting some

sort of act in front of her Yuka Chuckles and tells him that they were not but makaka looked so cute when she got shy then they comes back to the topic and Yuka asks him if that was what he was really planning on to do with the profets from the medicine to buy livestock for the village and other things Ash replied IES that it was true as he believes that life in that Village was a bit too difficult so he would like to elevate it as best as he could Yuka asks him if that was

why he needs live stock and tools if alleviating issues with food was his goal then buying it from quidd would be sufficient she says Ash replies that it would certainly provide relief but only for him and his family he knew that it was not enough to satisfy him as compared to the luxury he had seen in his previous life he was determined to set a standard that they were lacking but if he wanted to a achieve even a fraction of it then he would require to rely on the society as a whole he plans to

employ many people if he cannot do it alone he decides to hire as many people as required for that job it seemed impossible considering his age but still he wanted to try accomplishing it he knew he would not be satisfied by making only life easier for his own family but he was not also feeling like a saint he believed that making everyone happy would be necessary to attain the luxuries that he desires then Yuka asks him what luxuries he Des desires Ash replies that he has a mundane dream like a child that he wants to

lead a life as depicted in the books a rich life where conveniences abound he wanted to live the legendary life of the ancient civilization water sewer services and stable lighting sanitary housing and new clothing and endless delicious Liquors machine assisted heavy labor means of transportation faster than horses that would connect the world discovering those Innovations procuring the materials and producing them was far too lofty of a process for him alone alone so he definitely needed people to help him he remembers the offer from Yuka earlier and he was ready to accept help from greedy dreamers

like him he tells to UA that since he will be donating the proceeds to the Village she can help him with his business plan for the aloe vera Sal Yuka replies to him that he was far more interesting than makaka had told her which was scary Ash apologizes for being so eccentric he tells her to rest assured as he was a good person then yua tells him that she was grateful that the inventor of a brand new product would extent such a generous offer she was happy to assist him with his business plan they shakes

hand and makes the deal Ash was sure that now that he had made a deal with The Village's Chief's family his dealings with quid would go more smoothly he might also now be able to use the family's Connections in the city he decides to share his recipe for making the salv and have her for on with sales if that helps The Village's quality of life then he does not mind profiting just the bare minimum at least he was going to take his first step and it was a big one he decides to read as many

books as possible and take one step at a time until he attains the lifestyle of his dreams meanwhile in the Next Room Micah was in a very bad State Ash sees that they needed to take care of her and decides to get going then next day at afternoon Ash comes to yua and tells her that he was there to drop off the Alo Sal recipe as we talked about the other day Yuka tells him that she has been waiting for him then she takes a look at his recipe and tells him that it was less

complicated than she had thought she could make it as long as she has the ingredients Ash tells her that if she does manages to make a batch then she should inform him Ash gives her some ingredients to get started he had picked some up when he was in the forest with Mr B Ash tells him that he will let him handle selling and pricing the salv as he was not very business savvy he leaves all that to UA he agrees to take the bare minimum for his cut of the profits yua asks him if he

was sure about it as it was his invention and she was feeling wrong taking the right Ash tells her that he was the one asking her for help he tells her that he will manage on himself he tells her that he has a lot of faith on her
