Chapter 201: Return and Park Camping
Chapter 201: Return and Park Camping (Five Updates)
One morning, more than two months later, at the dining table.
"Jerry, am I seeing things, or have you grown taller?"
Has looked at Jerry, who was sitting next to Aisa and was clearly much taller than her, and couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
He distinctly remembered that just over half a year ago, Jerry's height was about the same as Aisa's, maybe just a bit taller, still a little kid.
But now, Jerry was almost six feet tall, having grown quite a bit without anyone noticing.
Beli, sitting next to Has, also took a good look at Jerry:
"Indeed, you've grown taller. But it's normal for kids your age. Sometimes you grow without even realizing it!"
Teacher Berry, as an elementary school teacher, had seen this before and wasn't particularly surprised.
Some kids who grow early can gain a lot of height over a single vacation. While Jerry's growth seems a bit faster, it's not unheard of.
Jerry smiled and continued eating without a word.
He knew that he wasn't one of those who grew extremely fast. His current height was mainly due to his frequent travels between the Mini World and the Main World.
Although only about seven or eight months had passed in the Main World, in reality, he had spent over two years in the Mini World since he first started traveling there.
So, his actual age was closer to thirteen, almost fourteen.
"I want to grow taller too, and I want to be taller than Jerry!"
Aisa, looking up at Jerry, pouted in defiance.
Jerry patted her head and teased her:
"Drink more milk. Drinking milk is the easiest way to grow taller. See, I drink milk every morning, which is why I grow faster than you!"
"But I don't want to grow that tall!"
Aisa's face fell at the mention of milk.
In Aisa's opinion, there was nothing more unpleasant to drink than milk, which always tasted a bit fishy to her.
"You can't just decide not to drink milk!"
Jerry glanced at the glass of juice Aisa had already drunk more than half of, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.
He prepared breakfast every day, and the house never had any juice.
So, the juice Aisa drank every morning was, of course, transformed from milk!
After breakfast, everyone started to clean up.
It was Saturday, and Has and Teacher Berry decided to take Jerry and Aisa to Hudson River Park for a camping trip and some fun. Hudson River Park was the second-largest park in New York, just after Central Park.
In the past, due to New York's safety issues, Has was often busy and frequently called back to work even during weekends. So, he rarely took Jerry and Aisa out to play, only occasionally taking them around the neighborhood.
Now, thanks to the Witch and Thor, New York's safety had improved significantly, and Has's weekends had become more regular.
With Teacher Berry around, they were determined to make the most of their leisure time.
Jerry had no objections to this.
During his time in the Mini World, he had been studying and researching Magic without any breaks, leaving him in a constant state of high intensity. Now, a trip to the park with his family would be a welcome break.
"Jerry, I remember we had a tent at home. Do you know where it is?"
Has poked his head out of the bathroom and asked Jerry, who was preparing camping food.
"It seems to be in the storage room!"
Jerry put away the various packed foods and made his way to the small storage room.
The camping tent had been bought two years ago when Has took his annual leave and took Jerry and Aisha camping in Central Park. It had been stored in the storage room and had since rotted due to moisture and mold.
"Restore!"
Pointing at the old tent, a blue light shot out, and under the effect of Magic, the tent began to transform. Within a few seconds, it was restored to its brand-new condition.
"If I had opened a second-hand recycling company in my previous life, I would have made a fortune!"
Taking out the brand-new tent, Jerry couldn't help but marvel at how easy it would be for a Mage to make money.
"Wow, this tent hasn't been used for two years, but it's still in such good condition! The quality is excellent!"
Seeing the brand-new tent Jerry had taken out, Has's face showed a hint of surprise.
It was the perfect time for camping in the spring, with everything coming back to life. The park was filled with a beautiful, vibrant landscape. The temperature was pleasant, and the spring breeze brought neither chill nor heat.
They spent the morning in the park, chatting and laughing with Aisha, taking leisurely walks, enjoying the scenery, and savoring the delicious food they had brought. Jerry felt that the mental fatigue he had been carrying for a while had dissipated by a significant amount.
Around three or four in the afternoon, the four of them headed to the well-known Brick Street, which was near the park.
Aisha wanted to eat pizza for dinner, and there was a fairly famous pizza place at 233 Brick Street.
After eating the pizza, they continued to stroll along Brick Street.
Of course, it was mainly Teacher Berry and Aisha who were doing the shopping, while Has and Jerry, the father and son, were left to follow behind, carrying the bags.
Shopping, especially in clothing stores, was something that the two women were very enthusiastic about, while the two men found it rather uninteresting.
The weight of the bags was nothing to Jerry, but the boredom of shopping, especially in clothing stores, was overwhelming.
So, he activated "Brain Boost" and, while following behind the three of them, began to mentally deduce various Magic theories.
He had already learned three different Magic systems, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. He hoped to combine the strengths of these three systems to create a Magic system that would be most suitable for his combat needs.
However, this path required a vast amount of Magic knowledge and would not be completed in the short term.
But it didn't stop him from gradually researching and integrating them.
"This is a very powerful Magic aura!"
While deducing Magic theories in his mind, Jerry suddenly sensed a strong Magic aura coming from his right side.
He stopped and turned to look to the right, where there was a closed door. The doorplate on the wall read 177A Brick Street.
"Indeed, as Odin said, there are still many Mages on Earth, they just hide. Since this house is emitting such a powerful Magic power, it might be related to Kamar-Taj!"
He carefully sensed the source of the powerful Magic aura, which was indeed coming from the unassuming house on his right.
And Jerry could clearly feel that the house had been subjected to numerous Magic spells.
He speculated that the house might indeed be connected to Kamar-Taj, as Odin had mentioned.
