Chapter 194 - A Day In The Life Of Einar's Family 2/7

Daven, who watched as Laura sat down, just laughed quietly and started to play with his Rubik's cube a bit.

While he was playing, he did not realize it and used a little more force on the Rubik's cube, so it separated in a surprising way, exposing its interior.

Which had a kind of black stone, which surprised Daven, because he had asked himself how the Rubik's cube worked.

However, after seeing the stone inside, he was completely curious as he wondered how each of the small cubes that made up the Rubik's cube could hold together.

Einar, who was serving breakfast, looked at Daven seeing the Inside of the Rubik's Cube, so he placed the plates with the breakfast and sat on his chair while looking at his experienced Rubik's Cube son.

Daven simply took a few minutes trying to find an explanation for what he was seeing, but seeing that he couldn't figure out how it worked, he could only sigh and lift his head to see how Einar looked at him with a smile.

"I see you were quite struck by the inside of the Rubik's cube I made for you and I am quite glad that you are trying to find an explanation for it but you should start eating breakfast while I explain how it works."

Laura who was biting a salicornia looked curiously at Daven and Papa Einar because she also wanted to know how a stone could join together without using any kind of extra object.

When the two children were already eating, Einar took the Rubik's cube and separated it to reveal its interior.

"You will see children in nature there is only one material which is magnetic by nature and is called magnetite.

Although this material is not rare, it is something difficult to find because it is only found in iron veins. Fortunately, a few weeks ago Gerd found a good magnetite mine.

Although I had planned to use it to create compasses, it is too much magnetite, so I decided to make this fun little toy to help you to develop your skills.

Tomorrow I'll give your Rubik cube Laura, but now let's move on to how the Rubik's cube works and what a magnetic field is. "

Einar drank some of his Pine Tea and took a bite of his meat "To begin with, the cube is made up of 27 wooden squares, which are put together in three parts of 9 squares.

How you will have noticed inside these pictures there is a magnetite stone that helps to hold the wooden cubes together. "

Einar then showed them the inside of the cube, so they could see what the inside looked like.

"But here comes the funny thing and because this cube is so special, you will see each magnet or in this case magnetite stone has two poles, the North Pole and the South Pole.

When two opposite poles meet they join but when two positive poles meet they repel, so to keep it together I had to play with the poles of the magnetite stone so that they are always joined ... "

Daven who had understood what Einar said, interrupted him "So, taking into account what you say, the poles of each checkered line should be South Pole, North Pole, South Pole, and North Pole."

Einar smiled proudly and ruffled Daven's hair "I'm glad you understood, although the order may be different since if I'm honest I don't remember how to know which is the North Pole and which is the South Pole.

We would have to use a compass and the position of the sun to be able to find at which poles the Rubik's cube is calibrated.

Anyway, let's continue with the explanation. Each corner cube has three magnetite stones that hold it together while the center cubes have four magnetite stones.

Although the main joint is in the cubes inside which have a larger magnetite stone in their center to support the entire structure.

I really would have liked to show you what a real Rubik's cube looks like but the tools I have are too primitive to be able to show a real Rubik's cube.

Maybe in the future, you can make one of these toys without depending on magnetite but that will be a long time later, now that you know how it works you should finish eating breakfast.

Because you don't want to be late with Helmi so you can enjoy a bit of the morning sun, remember that enjoying the sun for a reasonable amount of time ensures healthy health. "

When he finished listening to Einar's explanation, Daven looked at the Rubik's cube with different eyes.

While he was enjoying his breakfast he heard how Laura finished the food on her plate, so he turned his head and saw her looking seriously at Einar.

"Dad, I would like to tell you that yesterday, I dreamed of Sister Erika. I could see her and she even smiled at me although at that moment everything turned white and that's when I woke up."

Daven was quite surprised to hear Laura talk about the Valkyrie Erika and although Einar said to be called sister, he could sense that she must be related in some way to Papa Einar.

Because he always acted with affection or melancholy when he talked about her, proof of this was the face he made after listening to Laura.

Einar only showed on his face some joy that was overshadowed by a melancholic face. Putting his hand on Laura's face, he looked at her seriously.

"Daughter, when you see her, just tell her exactly these three words.

Papa te extraña.

You may not understand them but I'm sure Erika will understand them. Can you promise me that you will tell her? "

Laura smiled, revealing her funny teeth "Yes dad, I'll tell her your words, I just have to repeat them and when I see her again, I'll tell her.

But I'm curious what they mean, as did you say them so lovingly? "

Einar sighed and caressed Laura's cheek before giving her a smile "You are too small for me to explain but I promise you that when you are 12 years old, I will tell you a great story.

Even if you don't feel bad if I tell Daven that story first, when you are twelve years old, I do this for your safety and mine.

But hey kids, I think it's about time you go with Helmi to enjoy the morning sun, remember to obey what he tells you. "

The two children looked at each other and said at the same time, "Yes dad."

When they came out of the kitchen Daven looked at Laura curiously "Laura, you don't think Dad is keeping information from us about Valkyrie Erika.

I'm pretty sure their relationship isn't normal, but it's all just my unfounded opinion. "

Laura who heard the question, only scratched her head because Daven's way of speaking always made her head hurt a bit because she spoke like an adult and not like a child.

"Dad should have his secrets, as we all have a secret. If he told us that he is going to tell us the story about Sister Erika, he will do it because I trust his word.

I don't think it makes sense to try to find the relationship between Daddy Einar and Erika. We better wait patiently for his birthday to hear the story.

But now that I think about it, I think I forgot to put my blanket away yesterday to lie on the floor; I hope Mom Helmi isn't going to scold me. "

Daven, seeing Laura's worried face, only started to laugh "You shouldn't worry, I'm sure Mom Helmi will only reprimand you a little.

You know well that he loves you a lot and yesterday you were quite tired after running for a long time while you were playing. "

Laura laughed and stuck out her tongue "It's true, but Daven now that you mentioned playing what do you think if you play with me for at least a little while, you also know well that it is good for your health if you can be running."

Daven took a deep breath because he knew that he had to accept because otherwise, Laura would not stop bothering him throughout the morning.

"Very well Laura, I will play with you for just a few minutes because I also want to play with my Rubik's cube while I listen to a story of Mom Helmi.

Although I really wish that mom Kassia was in there because she has even more stories to tell. "

With some emotion and behaving like a child, he opened his hands and walked with joy "You know I would love to travel to Miklagard to see that great city, everything that Daddy Einar and Mommy Kassia have told me has made me want to get to know that metropolis.

Although I have to learn Greek and Latin first ... "

Laura interrupted him as she clenched her fists equally excited "But don't forget to fight, as there may be threats along the way like the ones Grandpa Eero encountered."

Daven knew Laura was right, so he looked at her with a big smile "How about if we travel in the future, you will be in charge of the safety of the trip while I will be the guide."

Laura put her hands on Daven's shoulders and looked at him with a playful look "It's a promise, but remember that you must also learn to defend yourself since I can't always be with you.

Remember the words of Grandpa Sven, better ax in hand than not being able to enter Valhalla with glory. "

Daven laughed and nodded "I promise you I will know how to defend myself but you will take care of the safety of the trip, now we have to hurry because Mom Helmi is waiting for us."
