The Adventures of Neu Pen'du

8. Blessing Special Nevt Pen'du

"What the fuck! No kidding!"

At first glance Nonai's father shouted but before he continued, Namo's father passed him.

Namo's father was shocked to hear this, but he was more curious than not to believe like Nonai's father.

"Are you guys serious?"

"We're serious Father-in-Law"

"No-no. This is very unlikely, It's IMPOSSIBLE!" Snapped Nonai's father again.

"Relax, nothing is impossible in this world. If this child's words about our grandchildren's blessings are true, it'll really be great news"

As he said this the eyes of Namo's father shone looking at their grandson. If that was true then their grandchildren would be a great figure in their village.

Nonai's father fell silent, he began to think as well. If it is true, this is truly a great blessing even their ancestors in the stories did not have such a blessing.

Nonai's father looked at his son seriously, but it was just a nod in return.

They continued the conversation until the afternoon without a break. The news of Nevt Pen'du having a special blessing, made them talk about it without boredom.

-------

13 Years on, Nevt Pen'du grows into a handsome teenager with green hair and crystal-clear green eyes.

On her 13th birthday, she received a dull wooden box from her mother and father.

"What is this father?"

"It's been 13 years, so many stories about yourself that you haven't told"

"Dad don't tell me I'm PUNGGUT's son"

Right done Nevt speaking, his father hit his head without a cue.

"uh.."

"What are you talking about? you bad boy"

Indeed Nevt has a nature like his father who is used to being straightforward.

Nevt's mother laughed softly while covering her mouth.

"Mothers.. Dad hit me, I'm mad at you!"

"YOU!!!!"

Hearing Nevt ask his mother for help, his father put on his fierce face and smiled sadistically.

"Dad I'm sorry, I was just kidding"

"haha"

Namo and Nonai laughed and heard their son give up.

The presence of Nevt does make their lives colorful. Despite the many unpleasant rumors that haunt them.

They don't seem to care about that. For them, living together like this was the perfect life.

As Nevt looked at the wooden box, his father explained the origin of the box.

First Namo explained from the day of his birth and met with the figure of Mr. Pendu and so on.

Nevt had indeed heard some of this story from the bad gossip circulating in their village. But it was when Nevt asked his father and mother for an explanation. They just said it wasn't time yet.

Nevt's expression fickle while listening to the story of his father and mother. But of the many expressions he showed 98% were expressions of surprise.

Mysterious cave, Mr. Pendu, Magic Roots that can form anything and grow strange fruits, His Naming Ritual changed the color of his hair and eyelids and most surprisingly he had the blessing of breathing in water.

"True, that's why we forbid you to play in the sea area.We are afraid when you find out this you become out of control and dive arbitrarily into the open sea. even if you can breathe in water it doesn't rule out the possibility of danger in the deep sea"

This rule has been compiled in such a way by all members of the Nevt Pen'du family.

With the aim of protecting Nevt Pen'du from the dangers that exist in the sea. At least those bans lasted until Nevt was 13.

"Open the Box, mom and dad were wondering what was inside. Since we can't open it, maybe only you can open it"

"Mr Pen'du told us to hand this over to you when you were 13"

"Good"

When Nevt opened the wooden box, his father and mother smiled. It is true their estimates all along.

As the Wooden Box opened, a dazzling greenish glow appeared.

"This light!" Simultaneously Mother and Father Nevt shouted.

After that, the green light subsided and there was a young root lying inside.

"What is this for?"

As Nevt muttered and took the root there was a very ancient voice echoing from the root.

"Nevt Pen'du, Happy 13th birthday!"

Upon hearing the ancient voice, his father and mother kneeled and rebuked.

"Tu.. Mr Pendu"

"Oh.. Namo, Nonai. how are you guys"

"Very good sir, this is all thanks to you"

Namo on his knees replied to Mr. Pendu's question.

Nonai who was also on his knees could only be happy to the point of not being able to speak, Nonai really missed the ancient voice of the pendu master.

Namo who saw his son was stunned all this time by holding the young root, snapped.

"Nevt! Where's your manners! Get down on your knees!"

Thanks to the snapping of his father, Nevt regained his senses and rushed to his knees.

"No need!"

Mr. Pendu stopped Nevt's actions right then and there.

"Sir, forgive my son's disrespect, I've been a bad father. To the point of not being able to teach my son manners"

"Sir, forgive me for my disrespect, do not punish my father. It's purely my fault I beg you to punish me"

With a look down at the roots Nevt apologized to Mr. Pendu.

"Farming, Honest, Responsible for all the attitudes I love about your parents. In pardon"

Just as they wanted to thank, Mr. Pendu yelled at them.

"What is this! Why is the aura of your ancestral stone fading?"
