The Human Giant



Even though Tiki and Dreyer doubted Yoze's claim of having both Dead Crystal Nerves and Regular Crystal Nerves they didn't deny him his request.

"You're forgetting someone here," Jewel coughed as she tried to get the attention back on her.

"What are you guys talking about when you mentioned Crystal Nerves, witchcraft, and immortal cultivation?" 

Tiki and Dreyer looked at each before looking at Yoze who was perfectly comfortable with Jewel listening in. They also were fine with Jewel learning their identity since they knew that she was someone Yoze trusted.

"Jewel, as my guide I'll inform you that Tiki is immortal and Dreyer is a witch," Yoze told Jewel the truth about Tiki's and Dreyer's identities curious about how she would react.

"Now that Jewel knows that Tiki is immortal I wonder if she won't be interested in trying to become my student anymore." Yoze thought to himself.

"Are you kidding me? Tiki, you're an immortal. Dreyer, you're a witch." Jewel's face was full of shock as she heard Yoze spill the beans. 

"Well, technically I'm not immortal yet. I need to continue cultivating before I can have the chance to truly be unable to be killed." Tiki explained calmly.

"Incredibly, this family is full of surprises." After calming down, Jewel's eyes darted between Yoze and Tiki before staying silent.

"Aren't you going to ask her to teach you how to become immortal?" Yoze was a bit surprised to see that Jewel didn't try and take this opportunity to become an immortal cultivator's student.

From what he knew about her, she was an opportunist who wanted to live forever. She was even willing to become a demon's student to live forever. So for her to give up an opportunity to learn from a true immortal surprised Yoze and he couldn't help but ask her why.

"No, it's just not worth it. Why would I become an immortal cultivator's student to learn how to live forever when she hasn't reached that state herself?"

"Not, only that just from listening to your brief conversations about needing Crystal Nerves I most definitely don't have these nerves. Even if I could cultivate, why would I switch when I already have a ticket to eternal life with fantastic benefits?" Jewel shook her head as she felt her logic was solid.

Even though Jewel felt she had partnered with a demon, the race known for massacring the human race, she felt that Yoze was different from the stories. He was much more reasonable and treated her as an equal even when the trump cards in her hands weren't as strong as his own.

Jewel was also able to get free demon meat and was getting paid much more than she used to. Even if she never accomplished her goal of becoming everlasting, the demon meat alone was enough since it was helping her martial arts training. 

If she had a constant supply of demon meat Jewel predicted that she would be able to become a first-rate martial artist in a year, a Blood Master in three years, and a Martial Grandmaster in five years. That alone was worth the risk of perishing at the hands of a demon.

"Forget it then," Hearing that Jewel was still willing to use him, Yoze shook his head but was relieved that he didn't lose a valuable guide.

"Since we are all here, why don't we start teaching?"

Feeling like they were being left out of the loop of Yoze's and Jewel's conversation. Tiki and Dreyer wanted to ask what Jewel was talking about but hearing that Yoze wanted to start learning they decided to ask later.

"I'll go first, I'm going to first recite my entire immortal cultivation book before going back and reciting smaller pieces and explaining their concepts," Tiki said.

"Alright,"

For the next 6 hours, Tiki patiently recited and explained the concepts to Yoze while he listened and engrained her words into his head.

"Impressive you are learning at a much faster rate than I did. If you keep this pace up you will memorize this in 2 to 3 months." Tiki said after taking a sip of water to hydrate.

"Thank you, you're a great teacher," Yoze seriously said.

Tiki's talent as a teacher was helping Yoze understand the deeper level of the immortal cultivation method at a faster pace than if he was learning by himself.

"Okay that's enough for today, I'll let Dreyer teach you about witchcraft," Tiki said, handing over the responsibility to Dreyer.

"Thank you, Now we witches don't cultivate like immortals or train like martial artists. We focus on using our Crystal Nerves as storage for Crystal Energy. Then we use the collected Crystal Energy to create strange objects like the plant soldiers that you saw me create yesterday." Dreyer drew Yoze's and Jewel's attention.

"Even though both immortal cultivators and witches have Crystal Nerves because their Nerves aren't dead, so the crystal energy they absorb gets used as nutrients for their crystal nerves." 

"While a witch's Crystal Nerves can't absorb the energy as nutrition and simply coats the outside allowing us to transfer it to other objects in unique ways."  After explaining the differences between the two different types of Crystal Nerves Dreyer went on to explain the basics of witchcraft.

Several more hours passed by and the sky had grown dark as the sunset. Tiki, Dreyer, and Jewel all yawned as their bodies signaled that they needed to sleep. 

However, they resisted their urges to sleep as they stared at Yoze who had no signs that he was getting tired if anything he was energized as when he woke up. Tiki and Dreyer looked at each other with dismay while Jewel looked as if she won a bet.

"Pay up, I told you whatever thing you added to his food wouldn't work on him," Jewel said with pride as she extended her hand to signal to hand over their money.

Though Tiki and Dreyer wanted to wait a bit more to see if the sleeping agent they added would kick in they had to pay up since they lost according to the bet they made this morning when they were caught by Jewel.

"Yoze, how did you do it? Did you take an antidote to the sleeping powder when we weren't looking?"
