The process went on for another two hours. During the time, Anabella went up and down, trying to ask around for food. Unfortunately, she had nothing to trade with. A few people had fruits they found within the forest. Some even had more than they could chew for now. But decided to save them up for later. Even if they would rot, they were unwilling to share. She ultimately returned in defeat. "No hope?" Jason asked as he lay down for another 'rest'. He had mended Joe and Adolf's wounds six times during the two hours. Once every twenty minutes. By now, Joe was close to being perfectly healed. He was able to stand up, and even moving around. Do light exercises, and a light jog. But still had to fix a few internal problems. Meanwhile, Adolf was still unconscious. He was healed for the most part. His wound closed up, and his complexion was close to being ruddy. But still unconscious. They tried waking him up, but he seems to be in some sort of coma. Which was strange. Jadon used [Deci

Ten minutes later, everyone was back on track. Jason had somehow managed to calm down Beatrice, who was now too embarrassed to even raise up her head. Meanwhile, Jason himself did not mind the whole experience. Just that after holding her in his arms for a while, he subconsciously felt more closer to her. But more importantly, 'God actually exists? Well I don't have any right to not believe in his existence pertaining to my circumstances back home. But still, this opens up more of my belief in him.' 'As well as those gods from myths and other religions. And speaking about them, and other paranormal things... does that mean mom is actually not actually crazy?' '...Holy shit. If that's true, then those things that she saw... those things that haunt me in my dreams... she was not actually lying?' Jason's thoughts clouded his mind in darkness. The multiple theories and conclusions he previously came to as a child, were proven right and wrong. The most frightening one being proven righ

While at the back, unbeknownst to him, the mist was increasing in speed, as if it could tell that its target was running away. 'At this point, I might just do another suicidal dive.' Jason thought, duplicating himself into two, then each duplicate jumping towards the two sides of the road. At the same time, each used 15% of his total stamina reserves, and activated the all powerful [Omni-Combustion(A)] Talent. One that even he felt was a bit too devastating. Just its boost alone was a whooping 1000% of INT. Combined with those from the previously combined fire type Talents, and the resonating effect, it was a boost of 1500% of his INT. The damage alone would be devastating. It should be. He thought, each duplicate using itself as bait to lure most of the creatures towards them. The creatures immediately swarmed him. Tens of them pounced on him, like tigers going in for the sure kill. The duplicates did not retreat as well, and flew into their opens arms. Then countless blades sun

Roy's chest heaved up and down due to his current emotional state. He grit his teeth, and clenched his fist, fighting the urge say even more. While Joe and Jason kept quiet, and just stood still. It had clicked to them that what the boy was saying was true. He was saying something they had been ignoring so far. "..." Anabella was also surprised by Roy's outburst. She was starting to fear what the child might do, when push came to shove. Beatrice also kept quiet. The situation was not good. No. It was never good to begin with, and now, it just became even worse. Minutes flew by as everyone stayed silent. Roy's outburst had shocked others, and woke some of the others. And those woken up, were busy thinking about his words. 'The unknown... huh?' Jason thought. Ever since everything began, they had been thrown into the unknown, left, right and center. When they left the Safe Zone, everything was foreign and alien to them. Signifying the first unknown they met. But after seeing the

And with that last thought, his entire mind went blank. But moments later, as if thrown within a pool of ice cold water, he woke up again. This time, in fit of panic. "Aaaahhh..?!" He screamed in fright, his body sweating buckets. "Huff, huff, huff... What's, what's going on? Why do I feel so much pressure on my body?" Jason Shemrite thought in panic. His heart was racing, and his blood had long run cold. 'What the hell is really going on?! I remember we got swallowed by the mist, then I appeared within a dark room and then... huh?' His mind went blank. And no matter how much he tried, he failed to recall what had occurred after he had realized his soroundings. But one thing was still for sure. 'I am still within the world of darkness. Yet why do I feel like right now... I have no control over my body?' He thought in dread. Yet that was not all. His dread only increased at the upcoming notifications from his SSS Grade Talent, [Infinite Extraction]. [ Infinite Extraction Complete!
