The Sage of Einar

Max, who was recovering from the nightmare he had, held his nose for a few moments.

Although he had had dreams before and some nightmares, this was the first time he had felt something so realistic.

It wasn't until Kassia put her hand on his shoulder. "Are you okay, Einar?"

Max gave Kassia a smile "It's just that I had a nightmare about Erika, but this time it was too realistic.

Kassia, do you think these dreams are due to the fact that I cannot assimilate the death of my daughter, or are they just a memory of my old life that will haunt me to death? "

Kassia sat on the bed next to Einar and rested her head on his shoulder delicately.

"Death is more complicated than we think, it is normal for you to have those nightmares, but still you must be sure that just like you are going to take care of us, we will always be with you.

The best thing you can do at the moment is to endure the nightmares since I am sure that when our children are born, they will be reduced.

Although if you want to solve everything you should ask yourself if you are Max or if you are Einar since somehow this makes you conflict with yourself. "

Kassia got out of bed and walked to the stove as she planned to give Einar something to eat.

"But, Einar, regardless of the answer you come to, you remember we will always be with you and for me, you will always be an important person whether Max or Einar have to tell you.

I also think you should make a grave for Erika, as her spirit most likely cannot rest in peace. "

Einar was completely stunned by the words Kassia had told him due to it being a lot of information, but perhaps the most important question he asked himself was

Who is he?

It was at that moment that he realized that many actions he had done did not correspond to his previous way of life since having had relationships with Kassia or something as simple as saying father to Sven.

Many of the actions he carried out were unconscious, and at the thought of them, a chill ran through Max's body.

Since he realized that even though Einar's body has no memories, it had influenced him too much, making him almost unconsciously turn into Einar.

'I need to think about this more calmly.

There is no use if I ask questions stupidly or get upset about things I don't even understand.

 

Since the beginning, I cannot explain how I got to this place.

 

However, I'm sure that I am alive, and even if my personality changes, in the end, I will not stop being me.

 

It's just that I don't know if I'm willing to stop being Max to merge with Einar and create a new personality with it.

 

Erika, I think your father is having a big dilemma… '

Max interrupted his thoughts when he could feel a little heat on his face and realized that in front of him was a large plate of seal liver stew.

"Einar, I don't know what you're thinking but you should eat a little, I think that when you have a full stomach, you can think better."

Helmi said who was holding the stew dish with a big smile.

Max scratched his head and accepted the plate of stew. While he ate unconsciously he ignored his thoughts, causing him to only focus on the salty and strong flavor of the stew.

When he finished breakfast Max took a bath since during the expedition he could only clean himself using a cloth, soap, and warm water.

Before he left the hut, Kassia stopped him at the door and handed him her silver dagger "Einar I don't know if you want to grow your beard or if you want to trim it but you should carry the dagger.

But I can also cut your hair or trim your beard. "

Einar accepted the dagger and after looking at his reflection on the blade, he realized that he really needed a cut as he looked like some kind of red-haired beggar.

"Thanks, Kassia, I think I'll take the fact that I have a long beard to fix it up and leave it looking a bit imperial.

As for the hair, I think I could make a slightly daring cut. Who knows, maybe I create a fashion. "

Kassia watched with some doubt as Max left the hut since she did not understand what he meant by an imperial court.

Because she knew the hairstyles that were handled in the court of Constantinople and none of them pleased her, but she waited and see how Einar returned.

When Max got to the hot springs, the first thing he did was make some soap suds since he must have put some on his chin.

Having the foam prepared, he placed some on his chin and using the reflection of a bucket of water cut the beard on his chin, using the silver dagger.

After removing all the beard from his chin, he used the dagger to fix his sideburns and the rest of his beard, trying to imitate the style of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria.

Since he loved that style of beard, unfortunately during his military life, the most he could have for his rank was a mustache.

Which never let it grow, because Erika complained when he kissed her because her face itched by his mustache.

After a while and with his beard trimmed, he began to use the dagger to cut the hair on the sides of his head as if he was trying to imitate a Mohawk cut.

With the edge of the dagger and guided by the reflection of the water, he cut his red hair as best he could, always taking care not to hurt his scalp.

When Einar finished was excited to see his new appearance since the imperial beard, the haircut, and the scar on his face made him look young enough, but at the same time, he had an appearance that imposed.

'I guess for being fifteen, I can make my face look a lot more mature than it is.

 

Although the scar is a friendly reminder that if I am not careful, I may die again. '

After this Einar took a bath in which he enjoyed the hot water while closing his eyes.

While he was resting, he could hear how someone entered the hot springs so he opened his eyes to see his father who without wasting time washed his body.

Max noticed that Sven seemed to be sore in his hip, so he guessed he had a good night's rest too.

"Dad is it that something happened or why does it seem that you can't walk well."

Sven who was washing his body looked at his crotch and shook his head "Last night your mother showed me a new world and since I was drunk, I just couldn't refuse.

I even ended up sleeping with Ivar's wife, I hope you don't mind as it was a suggestion from your mother since we found her masturbating in the doorway while she was looking at us.

It's a shame that I'm not as young as you to resist two women at the same time. "

His father's honesty surprised Max so he just laughed a little "Father, the secret so you don't suffer from hip or crotch is foreplay.

Otherwise, you will suffer for women, as they can climax countless times, but we have a limit.

As for Juni, I suppose it is her destiny as a slave, anyway I want to think that from today she will be more than a servant. "

Sven who was rinsing the soap on his body turned around and stared at Einar who looked much more mature.

"Your change in appearance reminds me of your grandfather during his last days of life, with the difference that you look more imposing and are much younger.

Not to mention that you are my son and therefore much more pleasing to the eye than your grandfather. "

Max didn't know if his father had complimented him or hadn't liked the change in appearance, so he just stroked his mustache.

Sven seeing his son's doubtful face only showed a smile and entered the hot springs "Einar, the reason I came to see you is that I wanted to take a bath and I also wanted to ask if you taught some strange things to Kassia and Helmi.

Because your mother surprised me yesterday with everything she did, so I can assume that maybe she learned it from my daughters-in-law. "

Max forced a smile and wet his face "He may have taught Kassia and Helmi a few things.

But I'm surprised that they could talk about it with my mother, but if it really is annoying father, I think I can talk to them so that they are careful to talk about our private lives. "

Sven started laughing "That won't be necessary, it's just that your father wants you to teach him everything you know.

I have had sex many times, but yesterday was something surprising. Your mother awakened my libido surprisingly.

So I would like to learn everything you know about sex, I may be an old dog but I can always learn new tricks. "

Max opened his eyes as he never thought he could hear his father asking him for advice on sex, but having no reason to refuse, he accepted his father's request.

"I will teach you what I know, father, but many things depend on my mother or the partner you practice with.

But once you can find the perfect style, you and your partner will find a whole new world of pleasure. "
