It didn't take long for Amun to stop walking just forward without any destination inside the thick forest without an end to end. Even knowing that walking aimlessly has no meaning, she still thought there was no reason for her to stand still in her place. Both options are worse than one another.

Although she didn't feel tired from walking, since all she walked was less than 10 minutes, but for some reason she felt she was not at ease, just a feeling that there was something wrong, though everything she had been through since she opened her eyes in that alley,. Everything was wrong and without any meaning in her opinion.

The frustration that built on her made her scream on top of her lungs, "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" Of course, she didn't expect to receive any answers. Her hands were on top of her head, when she was screaming, and looking up at the sky. She closed her eyes for a second. With a deep sigh, she opened her eyes. What she saw in front of her made her jump backwards two steps, and nothing changed.

What she saw in front of her face, the gap being only about thirty centimeters, was a screen with some writings on it. Her surprise caused her to jump back, and the screen followed. She took another step back, and it still followed. She looked right, then left, and the screen followed her sight and movement, wherever she looked or moved to.

She calmed down herself and looked at what was on this transparent screen that appeared in front of her suddenly. Luckily she was able to read what was written inside the screen, but it didn't make any sense to her. It didn't matter how many times she repeated reading it and was like this

Nam: Amun

Age: 18

Race: Human

Rank: Adventurers

Status: healthy

Skills: Nil

Gifts: Nil

Grade: 1

Phase: 1

Points: 0

Remarks: ?????

Mission: Survive

Duration: 24 Hours

Reward: Random Gift + Skill

So what is this ? What is this ? She doesn't know how many times she kept on repeating this question, but she didn't get any answer, and the screen was there. Nothing changed.

At least I got some instructions. Whatever they are and however suspicious it may look, now I have at least something. True, it did increase the mystery and didn't solve anything. On the contrary, it increased my anxiety. Now I am sure whomever was behind bringing me here is the same one who is doing behind the curtains, so sooner or later we will face each other. That is the only thing that lifted my spirit, and gave me new hope, and something to look forward to.

The other thing that I couldn't figure out was the mission that I have been given, survive. Does that mean there is a danger I should deal with and survive it? Sure, I am in a forest on a foreign planet. I don't know the animals and beasts that live here, but eventually in an environment like this where there are no humans living, there should be different kinds of animals or beasts that live here, and that is what I should survive for twenty-four hours. That is not a long time, and still not short.

While not knowing what is going to happen also. And whats with the adventures thing, everything going here is totally strange, "so at least I know what to do, I have to survive" that was what she was thinking when she heard some sounds, she was not walking but standing mybe for a few minutes, immersed with her thoughts, she suddenly came back to reality, and started listening to sounds she is being hearing, and is sounds like something is coming behind her.

She turned around, and started looking around, but she saw nothing. Still, the sound was coming closer to her. She was not able to distinguish the type of sound she was hearing, but it seemed like footsteps on dry leaves. She started feeling worried, "Now what?" She murmured, and started looking around her for something to grab and try to defend herself. She was in the middle of a forest. The only thing around her was trees. On her right side she saw a piece of long dried brach of a tree.

She was looking at a thin tree branch in her hand, wondering "what can I do with this?" The sound stopped at once, like whatever it was stopped suddenly. She was not actually scared or anything, just a little bit agitated. She felt prepared for whatever came out of there. She murmured again, "I wish I only had something to defend myself with."

At that moment, the same transparent screen appeared in front of her with the message,

"Congratulations, you have unlocked your inventory." The only thing she could do was to stare at the screen in front of her. She thought, "What did I unlock, and what inventory?" And what will that inventory help me with? A lot of thoughts came through her mind in a few seconds, although they didn't add up. Her wish for something to defend herself and the appearance of the screen coincided, so there must be a connection.

Also, she remembered that when she was wishing for something to defend herself with, she said aloud, then the screen appeared, so she thought let me say something. Whoever was doing this may respond, and she said in a whisper, "Weapon" but nothing changed. She looked around, although the screen was following her sight, still nothing changed. The footsteps stopped for now, but it had been only 20 seconds so far, so it could resume at any time.

Once again she repeated Weapon, Help, Defenc, Wish, and whatever else she thought that my help but nothing changed, and the screen was still there, she had no idea what to do or how to obtain the information she needed, and she was aware of that she doesn't have much time left, whoever or whatever was there was close to her she can feel it, though she can't see it yet, and it will come out soon, and when it does she doesn't know what is going to happen.

    While Jennan was holding her breath and concentrating on the area where the sound was coming from, a shadow appeared and her heart skipped a beat. A huge breath came out of her. She was not even aware that she was holding her breath when a young man came into her view. When he saw her, he stopped and started looking back at her.She was not expecting to see a human in this forest. Looking at him from top to bottom, she found out he was a young man, not more than sixteen years old, with brown hair, light skin, and black eyes. His height was not taller than 165 centimeters (5.6 inches). He was wearing a strange clothes, but apparently it was a traveling colth. At his back, he was carrying a backpack; though it was hanging on one shoulder, but it looked similar to the one she was given.For a few seconds, each one of them was looking at the other one, standing still, perhaps waiting for the other one to take the initiative, but none of them moved or said anything. Finally, Jennan decided

    Is this the end, was the only thing Jennan, was thinking of. The two beasts in front of her were something that she had never seen before. Although she was unfamiliar with all of the animals and beasts on this planet, something this large had to be known. It was five meters long and three meters high, with some parts of the head resembling a wild boar, including two tusks on either side of the mouth and a horn on the forehead.Below the horn there is something like an eye, but closed, its black eyes was farther from each other, below each eye there is a nostril, shaking from the fear she was not able to consternate on the rest of its body, the two best was breathing heavily and standing there looking at them like they are measuring their prey. Aden was facing the two beasts. His brain was in constant motion. More than a hundred scenarios were switching places in his mind within seconds.

    Amun's point of view I don't know if I heard it somewhere, or if I read it somewhere else, but knowledge is power, so is it really? There is an AI chip in my brain, or so I have been told. It is still not helping me in the situation that I am in at the moment. There is this screen in front of me, that is telling me I have opened something in inventory, that I don't know how to access it or what it is. The situation that I am in is also not helping at all.I'm alone in a scary forest, trying to survive. There are sounds behind me that seem human, but I can't tell. Strangely, I can hear it but I can't see anything. All I have in my hands is a branch of a tree that I found in the ground. I have no idea what it will help me with.Once again, I consecrated on the screen in front of me Name: Amun Age: 18Race: HumanRank: Adventurers Status: healthySkills: Nil Gifts: NilGrade: 1 Phase: 1Points: 0 Inventory: (Six Items)Remarks: ?????Mission: Survive Duration: 24 HoursReward: Ra

    The only thing that came out of my mouth was, "Run..... run..... run.... if you want to live."That is what my instinct told me,yelling at me in fact,and I told it to the strange girl standing opposite me, and without looking back again, I started running. Just one look at their eyes was enough for me to understand that we are the prey here, and the only reason they came to a halt was to figure out if we were a predator or prey, and it took them only a few seconds to figure that out.Physically, I am not sure if we outrun those things, but when your life is on the stake, you can perform a miracle. Yeah, and the adrenaline will also help as a boost. I became aware recently that my body has been changed. Why and how I still don't have an answer for that, but I think that, personally, I will be able to outrun them, but I am not sure about the girl with me, if she can do it or not.Keeping up with my speed , apparently was not an issue as I was afraid of, in no time even I noticed she ahea

    Amran's point of viewWhile walking through the forest, a couple of miles away from the village, Amran was thinking of what was to come. She's been thinking hard about figuring out how to find her brother, though she doesn't know if he is in this world or not, and the probability of him being here is higher than that of him being somewhere else. "Anyway, the adventure will start now," she thought, "and sooner or later we will see each other, although I have to think of some way to find him since he can't look for me and he doesn't remember me, although I wonder why that man let me keep my memory, anyway there is nothing I will gain from thinking about that, I have to think about how to change the situation to my favor."Looking around the dense forest, she was still in deep thought; her mind was working at high capacity, but she was still capable of noticing where her foot was landing, and everything surrounding her. Usually, when someone is in deep thought, it's impossible for him or

    After walking for almost two more hours, suddenly, without any notice, at once came this thick mist or fog that I couldn't differentiate, and the only thing I immediately noticed, though I didn't know why, was that this mist that surrounded us suddenly, was not a natural thing. While we were walking, we had to stop immediately; none of us was able to see even one foot ahead of us, I reached out with my hand towards Azmar, calling him "Azmar, give me your hand," and reached towards him at the same time.Obviously, Ajbadan stopped also, since he was the oldest of us and the most experienced, and he called behind himself, back to us, "Amran and Azmar, keep walking straight towards me, and slowly, Raco, you too follow my voice and come towards me, take a step by step, all of you, at the same time move when I say now, and I will keep talking so you will know where to go."His quick judgment and thinking, showed how capable he was, and he really is a capable person, fit to be a leader.

    Opposite to what I was thinking and wanting to do, Ajbadan raised his speed towards where the gunshots were coming from and told us, "Hurry, let's move faster," and like he read my mind, he added, "It will be more dangerous to stick around when all the animals and beasts will be running away from the sound of the gunshots, so it's safer to go there and have a look at what is going on." That was enough to convince me, so we followed him. I wanted to ask him several questions but thought against it because, because of the situation we were in, it would have been strange to ask him something irrelevant. Strange though it may appear, I was thinking about if he had a compass. I wanted to know more than anything where I was because, from the knowledge, I gained from the AI Chip in my Brian compasses, compasses exist in this world, the cardinal directions are the same, and the sun rises from the east and sets in the west. I collected all the information I was able to get from the chip, whi

    While I was thinking of all the things that I can't do anything about, maybe I let my guard down because of the security following me, even if I noticed it at the same time it happened I doubt that I could have been able to change anything, in fact I was expecting something to happen any time, in less than a blink of an eye everything changed in my surroundings, and I found myself in a forest instead of wide road in a city that I was walking on, all it took was just one step to change my location, not just me alone also the security guard that was following me was behind me with the same distance as before, we both stood still in our location only just moving our heads from side to a side looking at every direction. I was the first one to come back to reality and ask him, "What happened?" "Where are we?". Apparently he was in a shock and was not able to say anything. The training he took showed in the way he stood in a full battle ready mode, holding his weapon in his hand to shoot a

She put the device that she was listening to and collected another one from her desk drawer and started recording a message: “This recording is from Section One; the time is 17.00 hours, and today is the first day that officially Project Zero One started finally. I hope we have enough time to implement all the security measures that we have been working on." Without a second thought, she pressed the send button and returned the device to the same drawer. With a sigh, she rested her back on the chair she was sitting in and said, “I wonder if this was all a perdition or planned, I don’t know what they are thinking, fighting an alien invasion with abducted aliens.” a

At that time she heard a sound similar to thunder, or maybe it was thunder, but usably the lightning and thunder come for the sky with a storm or rain but not in a confide or an open space near the ground; the circle was actually above the ground and was almost two and a half meters above ground. From this distance, nobody was able to guess the size of it, but since it was almost three kilometers outside of the city and was visible that much from that distance, it was obvious that it was huge; everyone was able to see it was palpitating like a heart from that distance.

    Chapter 37Beginning of the Invasion Part 1BEmika’s point of viewThis was the worst nightmare I have been seeing, and I really wished it was just a nightmare, but it was not; it was a reality, a fact in front of my eyes. The thing I was referring to as a portal was forming in the same location I have been seeing it in my dreams, or, to say it correctly, my nightmares. And the reason I am referring to it as a portal is because I knew it was, because I saw it with my own closed eyes at that time, the monsters coming out of it, which indicates that it was a portal of some kind. I have been afraid my dreams would come true, and I didn’t wish for it, but somehow I had the feeling that whatever I saw would happen, but I hoped it would be in a different day and time; a time when I was better prepared for it and was able to take some kind of countermeasure for it.I have no idea what kind of countermeasure I could have been able to take. But anything is better than being taken by surprise

Or at least why? if he is not doing anything, why did he help the girls? Aren’t they his companions? At least they have been together more the rest of them, Regardless of their meeting in the forest, as they said, Murad shook his head like he was dropping the questions that filled it and went to the boy. Aden stood up when he saw Murad approaching him and smiled while saying, “It’s embarrassing to say that, seeing you came to help me, but I am actually leaving the tent here that way I didn’t dismantle it.” Murad was not expecting to hear that at all While the surprise was showing on his face, he asked, “Can I ask you why?” Aden didn’t expect to be asked that question either, so he hesitated for a second and said while scratching his head with a small laugh, ”ha

He was staring at a black portal that was enormous, over four meters tall and ten meters wide, with a black square shape instead of the typical gateway portals seen on this planet. It was both smokey and liquid-like at the same time, and he was unable to determine what material it was composed of. It was moving like a live entity with a pulsating heart, but it was not changing shape. In a matter of seconds, it gained shape and materialized in front of him at the location the youngster had indicated. He felt a terrible sensation throughout his body. This is what the young man was talking about. He told himself, "So it's all true then," confirming the first thing the boys had mentioned. "The time was the next thing he confirmed, and it was true too." He had the chance to glance at the clock now that it was getting to be the time of sunset, but he didn't think of it. He fe

He knows two of my skills not just one but two. That is ridiculous. I have been shocked. In a manner I never had before, if it were anybody else in front of me telling me that, the first reaction that would accrue to me would have been to cut his head immediately, without even getting the opportunity to get questioned about where he got the information. But fortunately or unfortunately, the one who said that was a child, although the expression on my face changed and my hand was on the gun and the sword in my waist, a complete involuntary reaction from my side.It took me nearly a minute to gather myself and regain my composure. During this time, I came to the realization that someone else must have informed him about my skills. Therefore, I felt compelled to find out who that person was. At that moment, the only

From the blank way he was looking at him, the emperor noticed that the boy was looking at something else, and most probably he also got, “The lost art.” As one of the few humans on this planet who has knowledge of “the lost art” and has learned a few of its skills, he can tell that this boy has it.

    Chapter 32Intermission Jack’s side story Part 1Anther's note:This is Jack’s story recap as I told it in the first volume, but I will now add the missing parts that were not known to anyone in the first volume or the second volume until now, or what was his connection to the storey line? So far, all we knew in the first volume was that he was looking for his wife, and that was all he was looking for. Where was he imprisoned? What for? There were a lot of questions that no one asked and nobody answered, and no one will unless someone dares ask the correct question.Also, I edited the previous chapter, its not just a copy of the same chapter of the first volume to go along with the current retelling of the story without changing much from the original story as a recap because of the importance of the story line. I remember one reader asking me if I was just filling in the characters for the sake of my book, and he was specifically talking about Jack :) I hope now he got the answer.
