I can't take off my clothes here because some of the kids including Rea from the logistics team are girls. It just feels uncomfortable showing off Rex's tiny figure here. So I kept on wearing my clothes while trying to wash off all the dirt from my body. I don't know when these people last bathed, but they don't seem to be in the mood to wash up. Oddly enough, Rex's nose seemed to be used to it all. After this, I might become the cleanest person in the Totem Flaming Tribe.When I took a shower, there were small fish that were colorful and glow in the dark approaching me. My heart was beating fast because I was afraid that these fish were dangerous. However, I got information from Rex's mind that these fish are friendly and harmless. They are so beautiful and I smile because of it. However, I don't have time to admire them now, Khores looked uneasy."Come on, quickly! We just got one beast!” Chores shouted.His eyes looked up at the sky and were also wary of the surroundings. We might
I tried to pretend I didn't see the golden tree floating real right before my eyes. Keep it low-key, I told myself, but I couldn't get the golden tree out of my mind. Unknowingly, my steps slowed down and I almost fell behind. I don't know why Bill can run so fast.At the same time, I heard a huge rumbling sound right from behind us. I looked back and dust was flying like a tornado was about to hit. However, my guess was wrong, because a second later I saw giant wings.“Shit,” I muttered.“Run faster, you fool!” Bil exclaimed to me.I immediately ran as fast as I could because I didn't know what beasts were behind us. Of course, these beasts weren't the kind we could hunt, that's why Khores told us to run immediately.We ran to pick up the logistics team who were already getting ready. They immediately ran with us. From the direction Khores ran, I could guess that we were heading back to the shelter. I glanced up at the sky and realized that the sun was already leaning towards the wes
Now those ugly creatures started flying low towards me. They immediately spat at me in a barrage and I quickly dodged them."Bil!" I screamed as loud as I could, even though I knew he wouldn't come back to get me. No one's coming back to pick me up."No!" I shouted again when one of the beasts swooped down on me.I can only imagine that golden tree again and hope I don't die from being eaten by this ugly, black-spitting thing. Suddenly I felt fire coming out of my fingertips. My eyes widened when I saw the fire that had only appeared on my fingertips, suddenly the fire spread throughout my body very quickly.Just like when the High Priest was trying to prove that I was awakened, my body was burning but I didn't feel hot in the slightest. I don't know what I was thinking at that time but I immediately strangled the ugly creature's neck that was in front of my eyes and set its body on fire. His screams were deafening and perhaps the whole forest would hear them. Out of disgust, I slamme
“We only have one beast,” whispered Noe in a very low voice, almost soundless."So?" I asked innocently. I frowned. What's wrong with one beast? Isn't the most important thing we are safe? At least most of us survived.Noe let out a short sigh while shaking his head at my question. I feel like my question just now was a stupid question. The answer seems so obvious, but I really don't get it."Khores should bear the shame," said Noe. He whispered so slowly that he barely moved his mouth. I looked at him and understood what he was saying. Of course, he had to say it very slowly, if anyone heard then they both could die. I wanted to ask again, but I held back. I don't want Noe to be in danger because of my stupid question.I decided to shut up and figure it out myself. More precisely, I dug into Rex's mind for answers. I discovered that the prestige of the Totem Warriors was in the hunt. The more beasts that are killed and brought to the shelter, the greater the prestige. On the other ha
I ate the beast meat that tasted like seafood afterward, ignoring the many eyes staring at me. I was pretty sure that what I was eating was that ugly fish that had killed one of the young totem warriors right before my eyes. I didn't care anymore what I eat, whatever it tasted or looked like because I'm so hungry and I need the energy to stay alive. A month ago, maybe I would be picky about my food. I would judge its look and smell, before trying to taste it, but now everything has changed so quickly. Now I know what it's like to eat just to survive.After I felt full, I didn't waste much time and went straight into the tent to sleep. Bloody marks had appeared above the red moon earlier, but I didn't notice them because I was in the shelter. The totem warriors use their powers to make everyone feel better. I didn't pay attention to when the flashing flames appeared, but I saw that the children from the logistics team were able to breathe freely and eat earlier even though they looked
We walked stealthily and I don't know why because I didn't hear or feel anything. My heart was pounding because if I could feel or hear something things wouldn't be so dire. I wouldn't have known if a beast suddenly snapped my head from my neck if I couldn't feel their presence.After walking for a while, I finally heard a snort from behind the trees. Now I realized that in front of us, something was hiding behind the shady trees.“Rex, check it out,” Rais Musi said to me.I widened my eyes. I can't believe that Rais Musi would order me to do that. He did it on purpose, I'm pretty sure now. Experienced Totem Warrior would not order a kid like Rex to come forward and examine a beast that had yet to make out."Quickly!" he cried again in a whisper.I couldn't argue with or refuse his order, so I was forced to step my foot forward. I gripped my spear tightly, even though I had no idea what to do with it. My heart was beating really fast and my knees felt weak, but I had to keep going and
"You think you're great, Rex?"That annoying little voice that I haven't heard in a long time suddenly sounded right in front of me. Aran approached me because I ignored his gaze earlier."You saw it yourself, didn't you?" I asked with a crooked smile.Aran snorted while glaring at me."We'll see if you can maintain that arrogant smile of yours later," he said.I just kept quiet and widened my smile, deliberately making him more annoyed. Rais Musi watched from afar with a disapproving look, while the other totem warriors glanced sideways. I don't know what kind of news will be circulating at the shelter when we get back, but I'm sure the news will get more and more confusing out of control.I can imagine how Bill's face when he heard all the stories. He's been telling me to keep it low-key, but I'm showing things just the opposite. I swear, I absolutely didn't want to show off this golden tree's power, but the situation forced me to do so. I can't give up when I'm about to be killed b
The wolf was now snarling at us all as if to say sit would make us all its dinner. Its wings spread as if it was intimidating us all.Aran was still groaning in pain and trying to stand up, but he couldn't do it. The wolf stepped towards us but then looked at Aran who was still beside it. That wolf grin made me guess what it was going to do next."Damn!" Rais Musi cursed. It seemed he was also thinking the same thing as I was thinking.Rais took his spear, lit it with fire, then threw it swiftly toward the wolf. I really thought that the attack would work, but suddenly the creature's wings moved and sent Rais Musi's spear flying like a matchstick. The wolf then turned his head and grinned. This animal has high intelligence, I can tell. He probably knew that Rais Musi would defend Aran. That way, he could easily kill both of them without spending a lot of energy.The wolf approached Aran and was about to bite his body, but Rais immediately ran over. His movement was fast and full of po
