"Something is really wrong," I said.'I think so. Do you have any other ideas?’ Rex asked in my mind.I have absolutely no idea what to do now because I have no ideas. This door is the only entrance to the palace library I know of. I used to enter through this door. Even if I want to find another way, it's not necessarily a safer way."I thought we should just go in. I don't know what will happen next, but we don't have much choice now,” I whispered.'Do it,' replied Rex.I took a deep breath, preparing for something that might be very dangerous after this. However, I still stepped my foot closer to the big door. With a pounding heart and a bit of hesitation, I finally touched the door handle and went inside.I closed the door and my heart felt like it was about to drop at that moment because I thought there would be a surprise inside. However, my estimate was wrong. Nothing happened in there. Everything looked the same as I remembered before.'This is really weird,' said Rex who also
Now we just need to find a way to get out of this place. The Black Cloud must be very angry because Noe and I managed to go in and out many times and now I'm back in while carrying the prisoner. However, Noe had said something about having a prisoner's mark keeping him from getting out of this place. Noe and I didn't have those marks so we could get out safely. Unfortunately, I just remembered now. How can I get Rum Hito out of here? I have not thought about it."Let's go from here!" I called out to Rex's dad.I don't know what will happen next, but I should at least try to get him out of here. However, now the situation is getting more difficult because the black cloud has surrounded me from all directions and the light from the golden tree is getting narrower. I screamed and groaned, trying to let out more light, but I couldn't. The more I tried, I even spewed fire from all over my body and it didn't help at all.“You have grown so much,” said Rum Hito. His eyes were full of adorati
“Finally you are back, General Rex Hito. I've been waiting for you. I didn't expect that you could walk into a trap this easily. You selfishly tried to save your father and let your friends get caught too because of the commotion you created. What an extraordinary general,” said the King.'We've really run into a trap,' Rex said with a soft chuckle.Somehow I found Rex's words so funny that I chuckled too. I tried to hold back my laughter but I laughed until my body was shaking, as if something was really funny. Everyone looked at me with different expressions. Dil and the other totem warriors looked at me with scared and worried looks, while the soldiers probably thought I was crazy. The King glared at me angrily."You laugh at me?" he asked in a rising tone.I was about to answer, but somehow I couldn't stop laughing. Maybe it's because I'm so depressed, maybe it's true that I've gone a little crazy. Rex was laughing inside my mind. We both found it very funny that we actually walke
“There is some sort of weapon that can be found with that totem codes book. I heard that with this weapon, all tribes inevitably have to become slaves to the kingdom and can no longer disobey," said Rum Hito."What about the Grand Flaming Core?" I asked.“I don't know what about the totem. When I was caught by the palace soldiers, they took it from me. I never saw him again,” answered Rum Hito.I then sighed and looked at the totem codes book in front of me, it seems I really have to repair this totem codes book. With a very heavy heart, I'm trying to remember how I can improve this book. From the few pages I've fixed before, I can see that they've been read many times and maybe some people have tried to fix them like I did, but they haven't been able to.I tried to fix a few pages until my strength ran out. The Golden Tree's light had completely dimmed and I was barely able to stand up any longer."I need food!" I shouted.I'm sure they can hear me because now this library room is un
The soldier was about to leave me, but suddenly he saw the tray Rosanda and Danila had brought earlier."What's that?" he asked.I gulped. I'm sure Rosanda and Danila got into the library by tricking the guards somehow. They shouldn't have come in here just now and now they've gone somewhere. I don't know what's in the tray because I can't open it and now I don't know what to answer.“H-How should I know?” I said a little perfunctorily because I really had no idea what to say.“We've delivered beast meat before. Then who delivered this food?” he asked again while approaching the trays that Rosanda had delivered.My heart was pounding as the man drew closer to the completely unopenable tray. I don't know what Rosanda and Danila are planning. Even Rais, Rum, Dil, and the other two totem Warriors probably didn't realize that the two women who had entered were Rosanda and Danila.I tried to avert my gaze and immediately started repairing the totem codes book. There's nothing I can do othe
After several minutes of running, we finally came out of the tunnel and saw a beautiful scene before our eyes. In front of us stretched a vast meadow, and in the distance, we could see towering mountains. Apparently, there was a way out that didn't require entry and exit that existed within the eyeballs of the capital's residents."We did it!" cried Rosanda happily."But we have to get out of here quickly before the royal troops find us," I said.We ran as fast as we could away from the capital, but from a distance, I could hear the hooves of horses chasing us. I figured they might still be some distance from our location, but there was a sudden thump on the ground in front of us. We were thrown back several meters and fell to the dusty ground.I felt my ears ringing from the sound of the explosion and my body ached all over. However, there was no time to think about the injuries on my body, I immediately looked around for my team."Father! Dill! Rosanda! Daniela! Rais!” I shouted hoa
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
