The Human Giant



River and Timothy felt their eyes itch as they resisted the urge to leak out tears. They felt they felt that Yoze was being too nice.

They had barely met each other yet he was treating them like he was their friend. Even though they admired him for his strength, his kindness and openness toward them were also why they felt so comfortable with him.

Not only had he given them his special paste without asking for anything in return but he also was offering them to eat precious demon meat with his family.

"If you don't mind, we will gladly join in," Timothy said after secretly wiping some tears 

"Good, I'll ask my dad if he could make some extra food. If not, you can have some of mine, which should be more than enough to feed both of you." Yoze knocked on the door and without waiting too long, the door opened to reveal a friendly old man with a smile on his face greeting.

"You must be Yoze, it's a pleasure to finally meet you. Your father has told me a lot about you." 

"Ah silly me I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Regil Regil, but you can call me grandpa Regil. Come in, come in, your father is making a fantastic breakfast." The friendly old man gestured for them to step aside to let them inside.

Yoze and the others stepped inside when they noticed Tiki and Dreyer sitting at the table waving them inside.

"Yoze, Jewel where did you two go so early? We knocked on your doors but didn't realize that you two had left by then." Dreyer looked at them with curiosity.

"Timothy and River here had gotten attacked when they were coming back to the city so they asked me if I could help get their stuff back from the thieves," Yoze said casually lowering the severity of the ambush.

While he didn't want to lower the severity of Timothy's and River's ambush because he didn't want his father to worry about his safety but also because he felt a bit suspicious about the old man that suddenly appeared unannounced and seemed to be good friends with his father.

While it wasn't his business who his father made friends with or not, especially now that they were in a foreign land it was good that his father was making friends. Given how old Regil Regil looked and acted, Yoze had assumed that he would be seeing death spiritual energy or smelling the scent of death corroding Regil's spiritual energy.

However, he didn't sense any death spiritual energy around Regil which was a sharp contrast to his father being covered in spiritual energy. Even if Regil Regil wasn't going to die in the next year from old age there should have still been a bit of death spiritual energy corroding his spiritual energy.

Not only was there no death spiritual energy corroding the red flower-shaped spiritual energy it seemed like it was thriving instead. Like it was not only a healthy red but it waved side to side as if there was a gentle wind creating a peaceful scene.

"It's better to be careful than to regret later on." Yoze thought to himself as he listened to his father talking about the day they met.

"You won't believe it but Regil and I both were looking for the best spices in the market nearby before we just bonded like glue. We met from time to time before I just invited him to breakfast." Drew explained.

"That's cool dad, did you find some good spices?" Yoze asked.

"Of course! Regil is an expert on spices having spent more than 60 years of his life finding the perfect spices. Last month my cooking showed great improvement thanks to his recommendations." 

"The meal in front of you is all made using his spices so give him an honest review." Drew patted his friend's back as they watched the others eat. 

"This is delicious, the spices are enhancing the flavors which is making it even more mind-boggling," Dreyer let out before going in for another bite.

The same happened with Tiki, River, and Timothy as they couldn't stop themselves from eating. As usual, Yoze started eating last and felt an explosion of flavor on his tongue making him want to stuff his face full of more food.

"Fantastic," Yoze said the only word he could come up with while stuffing his face full.

"Looks like we finished breakfast early today," Drew smiled when he saw all the food was eaten faster than before he used the secret spice recipes that Regil Regil provided him.

"Grandpa Regil, may I ask you if you are planning on joining us for lunch and dinner?" Yoze asked, wondering if he should use his talent mark on Regil Regil.

It would allow him to find out more information about an elderly man that seemed too healthy to be old. He could also get a chance to get the spice-related talent that Regil Regil could have.

Yoze smiled to himself as he thought about how he was willing to risk a talent mark that only refreshed 24 hours later for a way to improve the way his food tasted when he cooled himself. But after thinking about how there could be information that Regil Regil was a monster in disguise Yoze felt it was a better option.

"Luckily, I was not planning to eat at a restaurant tonight and will happily Intrude if given the opportunity." Regil continued to smile as he slowly finished his plate.

A few hours quickly passed by as Yoze and the others carefully listened to the story that Regil was telling with pride.

"That was when I defeated five bandits that had ambushed me. It was quick and brutal but that's just how you could survive the next time you get attacked by robbers." Regil continued.

"Send a talent mark to Regil Regil." Yoze thought to himself when he noticed that his talent mark had refreshed.
