One thing started to pop into my head. Wasn't it supposed to be when I saved Rum Hito that my job in The Totem World was done? Why am I still here? Is it actually my job is not that? However, I don't have time to think about that. I literally felt my body burning and I knew in a moment that bastard The Red God would appear.My guess was right. My body was so hot that Rais and Dil released me. I tried to stand up and walk on my own, at least I had to tell them to go first to the rendezvous point or even go straight back into the tribe dome. However, now it is very difficult for me to speak because my chest feels very tight.I waved my hand trying to tell them to go first."Go!" I said in a weak, hoarse, indistinct voice. I don't know if they can hear me or not."General!" exclaimed Dill.I see Dil with my vision has started to blur."Go! Back to the dome…” I said. I don't know if I can pronounce that sentence correctly. However, I think he understood what I was saying."Come on! We're
“You will die right now!” cried The Red God while pointing at me. I couldn't move even though I didn't feel too much pain and heat, like something was completely separated from my soul. I am in Rex's body, while the owner has left this body to unite with The Red God. I'm really alone and lying weak now. Maybe it's time to die. I feel lonely and scared. Rex, now controlled by The Red God, started moving towards me. I feel squeezed and can't do anything. My body felt weak and unreliable. I thought that this would be the end of everything. But suddenly, a miracle happened. I felt a strong and warm presence around me. I know that it is the power of The Golden Tree, but I have never felt the presence of The Golden Tree like this. I felt her presence so real, like there was a person, not just the golden glow of a tattoo of a tree. I feel that her presence is very important for my survival. Suddenly, a bright light appeared before my eyes. The light was getting brighter and brighter and i
The team that became the bait immediately came out of the front of the dome led by Bil. They immediately screamed and shot arrows at The Red God so that the damn god would chase after them. Not long after, The Red God appeared in a rampage and burned everything in his path. My heart was pounding because it was time to carry out our plan.We immediately took up positions on top of the ramparts, fired arrows and charged at The Red God with all our might. Meanwhile, the team that was the bait ran swiftly towards the capital. We attempted to assist them by opening fire on our enemy, and distracting The Red God from the team being the bait.The Red God continues to pursue the baited team, and we all hope that they can get to the borders near the capital where they are still safe and direct The Red God to approach and attack the capital. Even though The Red God has quite a high level of intelligence, I think his anger can make him attack anyone blindly. Moreover, the palace soldiers must ha
“We also heard that the totem codes book has some kind of spell that can keep the user young. It turned out that that was what caused the King to live for hundreds of years," Dil added.All this information stunned me. However, the thing that still bothers me is how to return Rex to this body and how can I return to my own body. I have to go back to my time. Should I tell them all that I'm not Rex Hito?“So that's the reason why the King looks so young and now he looks so old,” I said.The last time before I fell into a seven-year coma, I saw the King as if he was in his thirties. After seven years had passed, he looked like he was in his fifties. No wonder he wanted so badly to make me repair the totem codes book."Who damaged the totem codes book?" I asked.“We don't have that information, General. What is clear, from these codes, the King can regenerate all cells in his body. From what I hear, only he can do it in this world," Rais answered.“He was able to survive because I had re
“The High Priests. He must have done this. He might be able to put The Red God to sleep for a while, but he would not be able to defeat him. It's just a matter of time for The Red God to wake up," said Mora."We don't know what their plans are. It is possible that he will take advantage of the anger of The Red God to destroy us," added Khores."They can incite The Red God to destroy you, General Hito—er, I mean Ares Jones," said Rais.Everything they said made perfect sense.Mora and Khores nodded, indicating that they believed what I said."So, what are we going to do now?" asked Bill.“We have to fight The Red God and stop him from destroying this world. We must also find a way to defeat the King. The revolution must take place and you must have a new king who will act justly. The capital must share all knowledge and the tribe must contribute to food and animal husbandry. Only then could the world advance to the next stage. This civil war must end,” I replied.“First of all we have
I hope the same. I looked at Khores who was now sweating coldly. Since then he had not dared to move."Khores, now try to lift your feet," I said.Everyone nodded, agreeing with my words. Khores took a deep breath. We didn't know what was coming, so we took a few steps back. Khores raised his foot that was stepping on the trap panel slowly. My heart was pounding along with his movements. Until finally, his feet actually lifted off the ground.We waited a few seconds, but nothing happened. We breathed a sigh of relief and thought we were safe. However, before I could say anything, I suddenly heard a very fast hissing sound.“Down!” I said while crouching down.We all ducked, but apparently not all had time to duck so quickly.“Khores!” I shouted.I saw Khores fall to the floor, his hands clutching his stomach. Blood flowed from his mouth."Khores, are you all right?" I asked frantically.He couldn't answer, only shook his head weakly.I knelt beside him and tried to check his pulse. Ho
“We can't keep digging into this wall like this. There has to be a greater power,” I said."This crystal," Rais said suddenly.We all looked at Rais who was still holding the crystal object. From that thing, I could feel quite a bit of power. Maybe we can use it to get out of here, but how?We looked at each other, looking for a way to use the crystal's power to help us get out of the room. Finally, I have an idea."I'll try to link the power of this crystal to the power of my The Golden Tree," I said."Isn't it over?" she asked.“I'll try to use the rest of his strength. With the power of this crystal, maybe it can help,” I replied.Everyone nodded in agreement and I started trying to activate my Golden Tree power by focusing on the crystal. I felt the energy from the crystal combine with the power of my Golden Tree and then released that power into the wall in front of us. The wall started to vibrate and I thought it would break soon."Retreat!" I shouted.We all took a few steps ba
I thrust my spear into one of the dead machine parts. I don't care, I have to wreck everything until it's totally broken. The others followed what I did. When I had had enough, I stopped."Come on, get out of here before anyone sees us," I said.We immediately ran out of the room and outside the soldiers were still hallucinating. Quickly, we dashed back towards the secret tunnel we entered just now. Rais found a more hidden path, but we remained cautious, afraid that someone would see us. My heart beats fast. Soon the King will realize that his transmitter tower is not working. We have to get back to the tribe before that happens.We ran as fast as we could toward the secret tunnel we passed earlier. My heart was pounding, I was afraid that there would be palace soldiers or anyone else who would see us there. However, we passed quite hidden streets, following Rais' steps. After running for about 15 minutes, we arrived at the mouth of a secret tunnel. We were relieved that no one was c
