I could hear Rex's heartbeat getting weaker and it made me really panic. If I had a body I would probably be sweating and my heart was racing because I was trying so hard in the last seconds that death would come for me and Rex.

The beam of light that appeared after made me feel like I was seeing heaven. I was really worried that the light that appeared was really the light of heaven, which meant that Rex and I had died, but it turned out that what appeared was the golden light from the golden tree.

I squealed with joy at that. I can easily access the power of the golden tree now and with it, somehow I can take over Rex's body again. Rex's body glowed brightly because of the light from the golden tree and I could feel I was taking over the almost dead body.

Even though I have now managed to switch places with Rex, this body has still been exposed to that deadly poison. However, I remembered the pouches that Mora had given me last night as a gift. With the help of the golden tree's pow

  • Totem Warrior   Maybe I Was Too Reckless

    "We're going to die if we stay here!" I shouted. I realized only a second later that my voice might have been too loud.‘We will also die if we go out there!’ Rex shouted in my brain.“If we're here, we can only resign ourselves to death and we won't be able to find your father!” I shouted.Rex stopped talking when I mentioned his father. I might be too reckless, but I'm sure that staying in this tribe won't get us anywhere and death is always lurking. Whoever wants to kill us will keep at it until he succeeds. I won't be able to save us continuously.'I-I… I'm scared, Ares,' said Rex.I was speechless because I also feel the same way. Inside myself, I was terrified. However, I don't think we have much of a choice. With all that's been going on lately, I think the beasts are way better than the vengeful people in this tribe.I could feel Rex's fear but I ignored it.“You are stronger than you think, Rex,” I said.Rex was silent. Even though this child is whiny and likes to sulk, but w

    I seemed to be struck by lightning when someone was behind me and called Rex's name. My brain froze even though I tried to think of reason after reason so I could answer his question. However, I was completely unable to do so."Rex!" call him again.I had to turn my head and how relieved I was to see that it was Noe behind me. Noe looked at me confused because maybe I looked pale as a ghost. I felt my hands go cold because Noe called out to me so suddenly that I was taken aback.“Noee!” I cried in a whisper.“Rex, everyone is looking for you,” said Noe.“I know,” I replied."What are you doing here?" he asked again, looking to the right and left. He seemed to have guessed that I was hiding and did not want anyone to see."I have to go, Noe," I said. I don't know if my words are easy to understand or not but I have to go soon and I hope Noe doesn't ask any more questions."But, Rex. It's almost dark!” exclaimed Noe while widening his eyes. There was great concern in the expression on h

  • Totem Warrior   A Night in The Wild

    I kept running away and only realized that my body felt very weak when I was far enough away from the tribe. I stopped to take a breath and then looked back. I'm no longer exposed to flashing flames so my body feels weak due to the effects of bloody marks.'It's very dark in here,' said Rex in my mind.I can just imagine Rex hugging himself in terror if only he had a body this time. I tried to stay brave even though I knew Rex could sense my fear too. You are in a dark and empty area. The light of the huge moon was not enough to penetrate these dense trees.We are quite safe from the pursuit of people in the tribe, they will not be able to chase us until we leave the tribe. However, out here we know that we will have new challenges. Without a flaming torch, I went deeper into the trees. The golden tree helps me to make the light come out of my hand so I can see in this darkness. So far, the forest appears empty.I decided to sit under a tree that looked safe. I quickly took out a hunk

    The snake was bigger than I thought before and its movement was very fast. I tried to dodge, but there was no way. The snake tried to peck my eyeballs, but because I had time to shift, the snake's peck hit my temple. Pain coursed through my body and because I was shocked, I fell down.'Unlucky. That's the most venomous snake,' said Rex.Oh, shit. If that's true, I really would be dead by now. I just left the tribe and now I'm almost dead at the hands of the first beast I meet. This is ridiculous. I wanted to laugh but then I remembered that this was my stupidity and my life was about to be taken.The chimera wasted no time, it immediately lunged at me and one foot stamped on top of me. I coughed because the lion's legs were so heavy, they almost pounded my lungs. The fiery light from my body faded and disappeared as he did.The lion growled. Blood was still coming from the goat's slit neck, dripping down my face. I could see the red eyes of the lion staring at me angrily. At the same

    “I-I don't care at all about power, territorial expansion, and all that confusing stuff, Your Highness. I just want to find my father,” I replied.I answered loudly even though I was afraid of this man because what I said was the truth. My main goal now is to find Rex's father and maybe after that, I can return to my own body. If the universe really sent me here, I believe my mission is to help Rex. Maybe the universe will send me back to my real life after that. I'm tired of being in this strange world full of danger."Your father?" he asked."Yes. My father, Rum Hito, I have to find him. He disappeared a few years ago,” I replied.'I hope he knows something,' Rex thought to me.“Rum Hito! Ah, no wonder your name is very familiar to my ears. Apparently, your name is very similar to your father's name," he said in a voice that was quite jarring, making me surprised.It turns out that he does know something about Rex's father. That made me quite enthusiastic because my decision to run

  • Totem Warrior   A Creepy Hissing Sound

    "If you want to find your father, I suggest you think it over, Rex," Toth told me. He looked very serious when he said that."May I know the reason, Your Majesty?" I asked curiously.“You are like looking for a needle in a haystack. Not to mention the barn where the hay was being burned. The point is your plan is impossible. Forget it," he replied.I'm just silent because I can't possibly argue with a Leader. However, I don't trust him completely. Even though he saved my life, there was something about him that made me doubt him.“You may stay here for a while, Rex Hito. You can't possibly live in the wilderness, can you?” he asked.“Thank you for saving me, Your Majesty,” I said. I forgot to thank him after everything that happened.'We are lucky to meet nice people,' said Rex in my brain.However, I don't really agree with him. His kindness is suspicious in my eyes. I can't believe anyone saved us without expecting anything in return. I know he must want something. Maybe I'm being t

    "Time to eat," the man said.I turned to look at him and his expressionless face curved into a slight smile. Even though it was very faint, it looked like he was smiling. I nodded and tried to drag my body which still ached, walking further toward the shared dining area.Toth Karan and the other leaders were already sitting in the seats provided for them. When I appeared, everyone fell silent and looked at me. I don't know what I should do in this situation, so I just stay silent.“Listen up everyone! Rex Hito will be living with us from today. Treat him like a part of the Shadow Totem Tribe!” exclaimed Toth Karan."Your Honour, he has killed our brother!” exclaimed someone.Damn! I just remembered that in the battle at that time, I got some people from that tribe killed. It's nothing I've got a lot of enemies here and it immediately made my mood drop drastically. It's not even safe here.“Your brother died in battle, Borne. He died in the battle against the Flaming Totem Tribe. This

    "What did I say, Your Majesty?" I asked curiously.I feel like I want to punch him in the face if he doesn't answer my question. Toth Karan sighed and finally he was about to answer too.“You said that you could awaken the Shadow Diamond Totem,” he said.When he said that, suddenly I could remember everything that happened. Everything was spinning like a movie before my eyes. I could see as I screamed while covering my ears. After that, I fell onto the table very hard. A second later my body straightened and my eyes lit up. I've never shone like that. This was not the golden light from the power of the golden tree. The light was practically so gray, like the light of a lantern in a horror movie that was a little green. I, I mean Rex, look like a zombie.'I will rise again and we will return to the glory days of the Shadow Tribe!' I shouted.More precisely, it was the cry of someone who took control of Rex's body. I want to scold whoever it is. He thought Rex's body was a kind of hotel

  • Finally

    The light of the full moon envelops the room with a magical glow, creating a magical and serene atmosphere. Moonlight gently kissed Nola's face which was tense with pain. I stood by her side, my right hand holding hers tightly, conveying warmth and strength from every touch. But the healers want me outside, so I have to go out.“Arghhh!! It hurts!" she cried, the sound of the night's silence interrupted by a cry of pain. The healers forbade me from entering the room, and I could only hear moans and screams from behind the door. Anxiety swept through my heart, I couldn't wait to hear news about Nola's condition.Suddenly, a healer came out of the room and approached me.“My King, you can come in and accompany the Queen,” he said to me.I went into the room and held Nola's hand. Nola held my hand tightly, her eyes staring at the ceiling of the room filled with darkness. Deep moans escaped her lips every time a contraction hit. The light of the full moon, even though it couldn't enter th

  • The Wedding

    That morning, the sunlight played games with the leaves, creating a magical blend of shade and golden glow. The fresh scent of flowers and herbs wafts in the clean air. It was as if nature itself was participating in celebrating this historic moment.The once simple assembly hall now sparkles in the splendor of natural jewels. Folded flags made of silk fluttered brilliantly, and decorations made from dried leaves and fresh flowers decorated every corner of the room. The light from the shining totems reflected the colors of life, implying a new awakening of their power.A moment before the sunlight reached its peak, I came to Nola who was getting ready in the preparation room. The soft light from the crystal chandelier reflected a beautiful glow on her dress made from natural materials, giving her an aura of stunning elegance.When she turned around to see me, her sweet smile filled the room. "Ares," she said in a soft voice that seemed to wash away my nervousness. "You shouldn't have

  • Never Dreamed of Becoming King

    In an increasingly debilitating state, my voice broke in the reflection of the vibrations of light around us. Light flashed, creating an invisible yet powerful energy network. "I won't give up, even though my body feels increasingly fragile. I won't let you be trapped in this darkness, Nola," I said with trembling determination. The words seemed to be a mantra, strengthening my will even when my body could barely support itself.The Shadow Diamond Totem, glowing with fading black light, spoke in a voice filled with urgency. "Ares Jones, we don't have much time. We have to hurry. Nola needs us.""The Grand Healing Totem's light is starting to fade," she added, her voice filled with determination but sounding fragile. "We have very limited time, Ares Jones."Deep anxiety welled up within me, making me realize that not only these totems were on the verge of destruction, but also Nola and my own life. However, I knew I couldn't give up. It is my mission to reunite Nola's divided soul. Des

  • They Want Me To Be Their King

    The dream just disappeared, fading into endless darkness, and Nola seemed to disappear from my field of vision. I remained asleep, without dreams or images haunting my mind. My body responded deeply to rest, immersing me in an undefined dream world. Abstract images awaken and disappear over an immeasurable span of time. Nola, as if closely linked to the dream world, moved far from the horizon of my mind, disappearing in the surrounding darkness.As morning approached, the sun's rays seeped in through the thin curtains, painting streaks of light on the walls of the tent. I woke up slowly, thrown back into the real world. Rex stood tall by Nola's side, his eyes reflecting a deep worry, hinting at thoughts hovering over the worst possible possibilities."How is she doing, Rex?" I said in a voice that was still hoarse, following the footsteps of the dreamland I had just grasped.Rex looked at me sincerely, his eyes filled with deep worry. “She is still in a weak state; there are no signi

  • I Will Not Give Up

    The aroma of spices and herbs filled the air when my eyes opened. My body felt heavy as if all my energy had been drained. Gathering the power to repair The Shadow Diamond Totem was indeed a tiring task.Beside me, Mora stood with a concerned look. "Ares, you are lucky to have survived. But don't underestimate your strength. Don't forget your own limits," he said in a soft voice, hand holding out a healing potion. It tastes bitter but immediately brings freshness to my body."Thank you, Mora. It feels like I was born again," I said with a faint smile.Mora smiled softly. "You will be fine, Ares. The entire tribe is grateful for your sacrifice," she said, her eyes shining with respect."Where is The Shadow Diamond Totem?" I demanded, my curiosity peaked.Mora looked at me warmly. "She is resting in the Shadow Totem Tribe's temple. She needs time to recover her strength from all this."She went to tell the others that I had woken up. Not long after, Toth Karan and the totem warriors ent

  • I'm Running Out of Energy

    In the chaotic battlefield, with magic explosions and echoing groans, I stood before The Shadow Diamond Totem who kept screaming. Her body swayed, trying to break free from the totem warrior's bindings, but her strength only depleted further.I realized that in a state like this, where she was still conscious and twitching wildly, it was very difficult for me to repair her totem codes. My concentration must be stronger than before. However, I can't watch her continue to suffer like this."Get some more blood, we need her weaker!" I ordered several nearby totem warriors. They responded swiftly, opening buckets of blood and meticulously watering The Shadow Diamond Totem. Every drop of blood entered her body, producing the desired effect.However, the woman's desperate screams still roared, filling the battlefield. Bil, with tense eyes, found his courage. "She has to pass out, Ares. We need you completely focused," he said, trying to calm himself and decide on that bold move. I nodded fi

  • I'll Try to Fix It

    All the totem warriors, men and women who dared to face this darkness, had positioned themselves behind a tight wall of protection. Their eyes were full of determination and firmness as they waited for his next order. The air was thick with tension, and only the sound of the gentle breeze blowing through the leaves could be heard.Only I dared to stand in the middle of the open field, in front of The Shadow Diamond Totem that was almost formed. Swirls of wind and black smoke surrounded him, creating an extremely frightening effect, as if he was the dark embodiment of the subconscious.I was tireless, even though every fiber of my muscle felt tense, and my breath came in short gasps. With strong will, I transferred energy from myself to The Shadow Diamond Totem, seeking to fill the void within him with light and goodness.However, the longer I used my energy, the more tired I became. As weakness began to creep in, I could no longer hold back the cry of exhaustion. "Ahhh!" my cry trembl

  • Of Course, My Darling!

    The three of us called all the tribe leaders for a meeting at the meeting camp. Tough and cool-headed steps are the price that must be paid to save Nola. Moonlight radiated softly in the night sky, giving this gathering a sacred feel.Toth Karan sat with a serious attitude, his deep eyes filled with deep worry. Rex, with his might, gave off an aura of confidence in every word he spoke. I, trying to hold tightly to my anxious heart, stood in front of the leaders who looked at me with hope."Leaders, we have important news we need to convey," I said in a calm but authoritative voice. "I have found information in the Totem Code Book that can help us save Nola and return the Shadow Diamond Totem to its original state."Mora looked at me curiously. "Original state? What do you mean Ares?"“In the past, this totem was a source of goodness for this tribe. However, there was damage that caused the totem code to have problems. "If we can fix it, the totem will return to being a source of goodn

  • Correcting the Evil Woman

    After eating the beast meat provided by Toth Karan, the feeling of fatigue in my body began to recede. New energy flowed through me, reigniting my enthusiasm to complete this mission."Thank you, Toth Karan. This meat really helps me," I said gratefully to Toth Karan.Toth Karan nodded with a warm smile. "That's good to hear, leader. Is there anything else I can do for you?"I thought for a moment, then finally decided. "Toth Karan, I need some time alone. Can you leave me here so I can concentrate?"Toth Karan nodded in understanding. "Of course, Ares. I'll leave you alone. If you need me again, I'll be in my cabin."After Toth Karan left, I returned to focusing on the thick book open in front of me. Carefully, I touched the surface and started reading again with full concentration.As I delved deeper into the contents of the book, my spiritual eyes began to drift over the pages filled with runic writings and symbols. I began to feel the energy of the totem code book itself radiating
