I thought I was dead, but heaven couldn't possibly look like this. After all, who still felt pain when they got to heaven? My body ached, especially in my cheeks, stomach, and back, as if I had been beaten. Faintly, I heard the sound of a child screaming, but I couldn't hear it clearly yet. I blinked and tried to look around, looking for my uncle. However, what I saw was a completely different place.In front of me was a boy around ten years old who was lifting his chin arrogantly. He wore rags and parts made of woven leaves. On his head, he wore something strange, like feathers that moved left and right. Now I realized that the voice I heard was his voice. The screams were now audible and it turned out that they were all swearing words. I don't know what language he spoke in because I had never heard of such a strange language, but I could understand every word he said.“You should just give up, little worm! You don't deserve to be part of the Totem Flaming Warrior!” cried the boy to

Even if I could run fast now, the beasts would definitely catch me before I got to the group. I thought I would really die now. I've nearly died several times lately, maybe this time it will actually happen.However, before I could blink my eyes, I saw a spear fly past me, narrowly escaping my left cheek. The spear hit the beast right in the heart, pinning it to the ground.I just realized that the beast that attacked me was some kind of giant wild boar. It was the lowest among the kinds of beasts that dwelt in the wild. Even though this beast was the weakest, I would still die if the spear didn't fly in time.I'm still shaking when someone comes toward me. The man had come to retrieve his spear. I recognized him based on Rex's memory. This man who saved me was the Totem Warrior who used to be a friend of Rex's father. Several times he has helped Rex in difficult times. His name is Bil Iris.He looked at me with his bright green eyes. His skin is brown from sunburn. He was tall and we

Noe closed his eyes as if he was preparing to face death. I then did the same thing, but what flashed in my brain was the golden tree. Suddenly, a golden light appeared and chased the mosquitoes away. A second later, I realized that the light was coming out of my body. More precisely, from the golden tree tattoo on the back of my hand.I widened my eyes, and so did Noe. I wish Noe didn't realize what was going on, but that's impossible. The mosquitoes left us but I was very scared. What if someone other than Noe saw all this? What if Noe told someone else? I don't know exactly about the golden tree tattoo yet, I'm afraid that if others find out about its magic, I will be in danger.My mouth dropped open, not because I was scared, but because I was about to say something to Noe. However, an instant later, I felt my energy being drained away, just as the light coming out of the golden tree tattoo disappeared. It seemed the light only shone for a few seconds, enough to drive away the mos

“Hello!” I shouted.I knew it was stupid, but I didn't know what to do anymore. My heart rate was literally soaring to the sky right now and my little voice sounded hoarse when I called out. I looked around in panic. My group wasn't there and I don't know where they went. It was so dark because of the denseness of the trees, I barely saw anything. I spread my hands forward so I won’t hit a tree.“Shit!” I shouted again.I knew that my grunts and screams might attract the dangerous creatures in the forest, but I couldn't help it. My group left me, even though I've been trying as fast as possible to get back. They couldn't be far. I have to find them.In a hurry, I tried to find traces on the ground. I'm not very good at it, but I hope Rex can. Unfortunately, Rex also didn't have enough knowledge to read the tracks on the ground. I wanted to swear again, but I held it in. In a hurry, I chose one of the paths that I think looks wider and the trees are more spread out. Maybe it led back t

I ate more meat than I thought could fit in Rex's small stomach until I felt very full. I did all that because I was afraid that if my strength wasn't fully charged, then I would be very powerless. After that, I decided to take some of the meat I hunted into my equipment sack. With great difficulty, I skinned and cleaned the tiger's flesh. Occasionally I coughed because my breath was not as relieved as usual. However, I managed to do it and put it in the sack I brought with me. I tied it up and put it right beside me. The large tree trunk that feels damp is my place to lean on and rest tonight. Rex's small body felt so weak even though the golden tree's strength was fully charged. When I glanced at the back of my left hand, I could see the light was so bright. However, right now it seems pointless. The sky was still dark and the moon was still up in the sky beautifully. The red moon and bloody marks will still be in the sky for several more hours. I kept wondering when morning would
