She walked away from him after hearing his little hurtful words. But even at the last stage, she still had some hopes that he might stop her any time and won't let her walk away from him.She thought, maybe she was important to him and understands that she worries about him. But turned out she was wrong. He did not see her concern for him, he only saw her as a manipulator or as someone who wanted to mobilize him. It crushed her heart into pieces, yet she still walked away when not seeing any hope of him stopping her, it was painful for her." He is a bad person, how can he do this to me? I...I was just thinking about his good, wanted him to stay away from danger. He is really silly and stupid ", She was still struggling in her mind.She finally got away from him, and when she looked behind, Jiro wasn't looking at her anymore, he was more into those fruit trees that were maybe fifty or six meters away from him. If she can, she wanted to give him a good whooping for disrespecting her
What was the reason for their outbreak? It was hard to know.Those bees were just a step away from him. Jiro had to do something because he did not want to be stung by those groups of bees. In his defense, he immediately grabbed the clothes which he recently turned into a pouch-like thing, and used his both hands to cover his head. His body was already damaged, and full of scars. But what he hated the most was having any scars over his face, he just couldn't see his face becoming ugly.So the first thing that came into his mind was to cover his face and save it, other parts...screw them.In his defense, he used his hands and the handkerchief to cover his face and entire head, even closed his eyes because he was scared and was waiting...expecting the bees to bite him.His eyes were closed and his hands were on the top of his head, he was unable to see anything.He waited like that for some time, but still didn't feel any pain in any part of his body, it was weird. It's been a long ti
Just when he thought his plan succeeded, he saw the apple in his hand rotting once again. It rotted completely and out of nowhere those disgusting food worms started squirming out from the shell, it was bloody disgusting to even think of them, let alone having so much on his hand.He started shaking his hand frantically in the mid-air, trying to get rid of them completely.Once again, his plan failed." This failed too. What to do next? ", He was getting anxious and worried now.It was not a good sign that he failed. If this isn't working and another option he thought failed as well, what more can he do?He looked at the ground full of delicious apples. Touched his nose in frustration, his anger level was so low that he could be angry at almost anything.He massaged the middle part of his nose and then put his hands on his waist and started walking from one side to another in a straight line in a continuous motion." I can't grab the apple from the ground, the system doesn't allow it.
This time....he feared for real. The moment his hands and feet slipped from the trunk, it felt like it was his end.He was sure that he would fall like a bomb and might be scattered like broken glass once he touched the ground. He was scared and thus closed his eyes tighter than anything in the world, refused to open them as he was already preparing himself to feel the pain he was gonna get from this fall.However, instead of falling on the hard ground, he felt like he fell on a soft cloud. That sensation of a smooth and soft surface was still in his mind, his body remembered that feeling.He knitted his brows and opened his eyes in an attempt to know where he was right now. As reading was his hobby, he certainly knew when one got such a feeling.Of course, when they die and get accepted into heaven, they get that soft and smooth surface to fall on.But everyone gets to feel that bloody pain first. So how come God permitted him to directly get into heaven? Did he die just a moment ag
He told her to hold the apple in her hand for a moment. He was eagerly waiting for the moment when that apple will rot before her eyes, he wants to see her terrified look when that happens.She did as told and held the apple in her palm, waiting for the magic to happen. Ten seconds passed by, but no change happened in the apple.It was strange...why is it not reacting to the flesh?" For how long should I hold it? ", Ines asked with an innocent look on her face as she was waiting for the magic to happen.Jiro scratched his head seeing that he was completely clueless about the current situation. " Wait for a little while, you will surely see the change ", He assured her while he was confused and clueless." It rotted when I held it in my hands, what's happening right now? Why is it not rotting? ", He thought in his mind while looking at her hand and rotating his eyes from up to down and waiting for the change.Ines's eyes were fixed on the apple in her hand, she was waiting for the ch
He was already feeling itchy all over his body, but it seems to get even worse now. And yet, he was still ignoring it.And he kept ignoring it. On the ground, Ines set up the trap and gave him the free signal. Jiro nodded and sat on the branch, he then started sliding down on the branch and reached one of the pomelos which were hanging to the stim. He raised his hand forward and then grabbed the pomelo rightly and started spinning it to pluck. This time he was not worried about the bees or any small creature.Because even if they come at him, he would be done before they reached him. And his touch would cease already, so there was nothing for him to be worried about. As plucked out one of the pomelos, he threw it down towards the trap, his aim was hundred percent perfect and it hit the bullseye and fall into the trap. And once again, now was the time when he started looking up and down, he was done here and now needed to go down. But it wasn't as easy as it look, last time also he
Her ears started switching again, it was an alert signal. " Hey! Are you done? Hurry up. I am sensing a danger ", Ines said.Jiro didn't look at her and kept trying his hands on the mangoes he was trying to get. He was jumping and hitting the branch so that the mangoes won't be damaged. He was trying his best, it was just that his height was not enough to reach that level even with that long stick in his hands." Just a moment please, I am almost done ", Jiro begged for a little more time and kept doing his task.And suddenly a loud stepping noise surrounded her ears as if something was running in their direction.Ines started getting anxious and nervous with every passing second and she continued to urge Jiro to hurry up." We don't have much time left, little kiddo. Something is running in our direction, just hurry up already ", Said Ines, she was jumping from anxiety.Jiro could feel how tense she was based on her high pitch tone full of anxiety and whatnot.This time around when
Jiro was having a deep suspicion about this fellow having to be the guardian of that mango tree, must be trying to protect every kin of that tree. But Jiro had no time to think about anything about that tree or this beast, all he had to do or think about was how to get rid of it. Because it looked like a hungry wolf was running after an innocent rabbit." ROAR...".It was angry, too angry that it can even shred him into small fine pieces if Jiro was to get into his hands, its running figure alone was enough to make him shake in fear." If he is the guardian of the tree, why is he still running after me? I already plucked out the mango, it already detached...so why? ", Jiro was desperate to know since his breath was running out and his body was getting tired fastly.Earlier when he completes the first stage of the task, the bees no longer chase after him. Second, the third and fourth stages had no obstacles. But the fifth stage...well, it's clear now why this area was lush with greene
It has been more than two hours since Petal installed the EXP system Inside. Each step consists of ten steps. The more he walks, the more it will turn into energy and store it in him. But just like the Energy bar, it also has some limitations that might become disadvantages shortly. But for now, he was all settled.As they were walking futures and further, Jiro was feeling an immense kind of energy in his body, he was feeling light and more than sober. Every step he takes makes it more fun for him as if his body was set on cloud or his body was clout itself, he never felt so relaxed and comfortable before as he is feeling right now.Jiro didn't ask any questions to Petal, because he was already aware of the fact that all these changes may be because he was now using a different energy source, but who knows how long it will last? Maybe he was getting this refreshing feeling because he was aware of what he did to himself and was trying to feel it out."Congratulations, you have gained
It was clear that Ines was walking in the wrong direction, but she was in deep thought, still thinking about something that was not needed right now.And the direction they were going towards had a cliff, a slight fall, and one would go to heaven. Petal even warned him to take a turn but that did not happen, Jiro had to remind her to turn back and take that route from behind.Seeing that Ines was not reacting, Jiro tried asking. " Ines! Don't we have to take a turn from behind? We missed the chance ", Only by then did Ines come to reality and look behind."You are right. Let's go..."She walked back and then right from there. From here on, they have officially entered the forest area. Since the place, she is talking about is secluded and on the mountain guarded by wild animals and forest, it was now officially the start of the journey."What were you thinking?" Jiro asked."Just thinking about the future. As you know... it's been thousands of years since the last time I visited the pl
" I was afraid that any predator might eat it, so I took it with me. I hope you won't mind ", Said Jiro in a soft tone.Ines glanced at the unique egg in his hand, she thought for a moment and was still thinking about why this egg can make noises, but she had no answers for it." We can keep it. Back in my era, we had many powerful beasts which were priceless and had so many advantages to be taken. Even though I don't know how much the world has changed, we can keep it as a hope to get something out of it ".Ines was not against it, she even supports him if he wants to do or learn something, and she will help him with that.The world they are in right now, it's a fantasy world. A Universe filled with unknown and amazing things and creatures, the things which you cannot ever imagine can be possible when it comes to this world.People get Isekai'd and can achieve any feat if they are capable. So Jiro was full of expectation that this egg belongs to some unique creature he was unknown o
As they were returning to the living stay, Jiro asked about his energy bar which can only withstand some moves and slides. This morning, he was only able to run for two hours only, and then his body completely gave up on him the moment the energy bar hit the zero mark." Having an energy bar is quite risky, I can't even ensure how long I will be able to last long. It's as if...there's a sword hanging around my neck, one wrong move and I will die ", Jiro was concerned about this issue.With this ability, he was no more than a robot or maybe a key toy that only works when something spins the key in the main hole.[Umm! You are quite right. Having energy space is a little risky for you. You can indeed recover from the energy loss in an hour or so...but it's limiting your capabilities. Maybe...we should start the EXP system and remove the energy bar ]EXP was another option for a gamer to keep on going and this one was less risky than the energy system. Maybe this was fitter for Jiro comp
" I don't know how to coax someone. I might even end up making them more miserable and sad ", Said Jiro while looking at the neon light blue color shining egg. The egg was really interesting but the way it was making noise was quite unpredictable." But it's really weird. Why is it crying? It's crying...does it mean that there's life inside it? ".[ I think life has been formed inside the egg. And...Have you ever held a child in your arm? If you have, then you know how to talk to it...just use that method]Thinking back...the life inside the egg and a child both have no difference, both are little kids who don't know how to express their feelings other than crying and attracting attention.So the only way to stop it from crying was to talk to it in a soft tone and try to coax it, maybe a gentle touch will be sufficient to stop its sobbing.Jiro blinked several times, after hearing Petal now he was thinking about how to coax a child or how ones say good things in front of the kid. How
There was nothing particularly special in sight, except....that nest on the side. Nothing caught his eyes but the nest did." Petal! What's that? A bird nest? ", Jiro started growing close to the nest which was on the corner.The cave was all bright and had reached a dead end, yet there was a bird's nest on the side. Jiro did not think of anything and approached the nest at a slow pace.As he grew close to the nest, the weeping and crying became clear, as if it was coming from that spot.The nest was pretty small, just a little bigger than the average, with an Egg inside it. The nest was wielded perfectly around the edge so that the egg wouldn't roll out in any kind of situation.It was just the only thing in the cave which was enough to attract anyone's attention.Jiro stopped in front of the nest and looked at the egg in it, he tapped the edge of his chin while tilting his head from left to right in slow motion. In a situation like this, he doesn't know what to do." Petal! Believe
It was really strange that there was no life force inside yet Jiro was receiving signals from there. Like...isn't the crying sound enough to let you know there is someone inside? " So you are saying that there's no life force here...hmm! But then again, what are these noises that I am hearing right now? I mean...explain to me ", At this Jiro knows nothing.He just wants to know what he was hearing right now if there's nothing here. It's a baby's voice and it's crying very loudly, his eardrums have gone deaf from all the crying sounds, and the system is saying there's no one. That's crazy.[ I hear nothing ]" Huh? Do you hear nothing? For real...Just get inside my mind and you will understand what I am talking about. There's a baby somewhere around here. I am telling you, I am not lying ", Said Jiro while trying to convince him that he is not lying...not even a little bit.[Well! I won't go to such lengths. Since you are saying you are hearing strange sounds, let's go check it out. I
He was sleeping soundly until a sound reached his ears. He was awake by the sudden weeping sound. He slowly opened his eyes, it was dark in the surrounding without any light or hope. " Wah...wah..."Someone was crying, he could hear the crying noise, but who?He was still half asleep and once again looked at the surrounding, but he could see nothing other than darkness. At this point, he deemed it as his imagination and once again went to sleep.But just when he closed his eyes, the noise started ringing in his ears once again." Wah...".This time the noise was too loud that he could not hear anything else other than the weeping sound. He placed his both hands around his ears and covered them, he was sleepy, and do not want to hear anything or see anything, just want to have a proper rest.The noise disappeared. Just when he thought he had peace and closed his eyes...the weeping sounds started ringing in his head, and thus time was in continuous mode.Jiro got up and sat straight a
They both messed up the balance and fell on each other.Jiro was very light, yet she was complaining that he was heavy. " Little Boy! Can you get up? You are too heavy for me ", She was not serious, just joking with him.He hmph a little and then slid off of her body and sat down by the side. He was not looking at her, but rather staring at the sky. Ines saw his little pouty lips, what to do with this guy when he was being this cute? She just extended her hand towards his face and started squeezing his bony cheeks. " Alright boy, stop making that deadly expression. I know I was a little exaggerating but I was just teasing you, how can you not tell when facing your little body which has no flesh? Please don't be mad at me ", She said in a coaxing tone. He held her hand and slid them off of his face. " I am not mad, I just wanted to make you apologize and I succeeded in that. Let's gather some fuel for the fire ", He started laughing suddenly after hearing her apology.Ines chuckled
