Ren didn't feel that well, he was hurt, he was just looked at like someone who needs help.
"It's your fault Jane!"
-Who told you to talk to me out loud?
"What other way is there!?"
-None, hahaha!
Ren gritted his teeth in anger as he visualized himself slapping a mental image of Jane.
She always picks on him!
….
Early evening, Ren decided to leave for a while, he needed to go into the forest.
He wanted to fight some beasts so he could sharpen his fighting instinct.
Walking through the capital, he kept starting at the massive shops open at the side of the road, his mouth hanging open at the sight of the tall buildings.
He was the very image of a country bumpkin.
(AN: I'm a country bumpkin, haha, I was raised in the country, and still live in the country)
In a couple alleys he could hear the calls of women trying to lure men over, as a slightly sweet smell drifted out of the alleys.
As a healthy young man, Ren knew what all that was about, so he quickly left, before he was sucked in.
At this time of the day the roads were very empty, so Ren enjoyed walking in the ten meter wide road as he looked at all the sights on his way out of the capital.
Ren managed to get out of the capital without any incidents, he thought he would be randomly targeted like a main character from the novels, Jane told him about those 'Web novels' that came from the internet.
He thought they were very interesting, so he had her read him some of the novels she downloaded in the other world.
Surprisingly, she happily obliged.
….
Quite a distance from the capital, the prince from before was staring in Ren's direction.
As a prince of the heavens, how can anyone in the mortal world hide from him?
Gritting his teeth, and aura exploded around the prince, causing the atmosphere around him to shake.
"YOU D*MN BRAT!"
The prince yelled, as he started to quickly head towards the capital.
….
In the Ye family, in Ren's room the middle aged man from before appeared in his room, looking at the empty room he looked in the direction Ren headed.
"You're lucky I decided to help you"
After speaking, he then vanished as quick as he came.
….
After a few hours of travel, Ren finally entered the forest, looking around he could see the signs of travelers everywhere.
He will need to go deeper if he wanted to fight a powerful beast.
Walking deeper, Ren observed the gigantic trees that towered up high nearly piercing the heavens.
Exaggerated, but that's how he felt.
Pushing through countless amounts of undergrowth, Ren ran into a crystal clear stream flowing through the forest.
Thirsty, Ren went and scooped a few mouthfuls out of the stream and even splashed his face a few times.
As he was refreshing himself, he smelled an intoxicating scent.
Looking at the green undergrowth and the trees in the surrounding, he failed to see anything strange.
Drying off his face, he walked into the direction of the smell, smashing through the undergrowth as he moved forward.
Walking further in the forest, he noticed that the green was becoming greener, a very vivid and bright color.
The whole time the scent was becoming harder and harder to resist.
Walking through the even greener undergrowth, Ren finally walked into a clearing.
In that clearing surrounded by many types of herbs and common plants, was a crimson red flower with two blue leaves on its stem.
The scent came from the flower, and a feeling of his blood starting to boil became noticeable.
Approaching the flower, Ren felt a sense of danger from behind him as he dodged a dark blur.
Shua!
Feeling a cold breeze penetrate his skin, he turned to look at what attacked him, Ren's face paled.
Coiling around the flower, at a length of fifteen meters, was a dark blue python!
