I was walking for up to two hours now. I still haven't seen any living beings so I decided to control my abnormal strength to past time while still walking.
I realize that my strength is totally not normal and I need to properly control it.
So I did different kinds of exercises.
Running - I tried to run with my eyes open, but some annoying dirt always gets into my eyes. So I decided to walk first, then try to jog slowly till I find a pace I can run onto without any dirt getting in my eyes.
Punching - I tried to punch a tree... my fist got stuck inside. I tried to punch a small boulder... it was easily destroyed. And while still looking for a pace I could run onto I saw a large-massive boulder. I punched it... half of it was destroyed, but my fist doesn't even have blood on it... I tried to punch the other half with a small amount of strength, and it became a pile of big rocks. I tried again and again until I was finally able to found the strength that can be considered normal.
kicking - pretty much like what happened to the punching exercise.
Doing these exercises, I realized that I'm not a normal person anymore.
It's starting to get dark so I looked for a cave and I found one almost immediately.
I went inside. The cave was spacious, its surface is quite smooth so it was comfortable to lay down to.
Even though I walked for almost 6 hours now, I don't feel tired at all.
I don't know if I really have some kind of skill or power but one thing I know for sure is I'm strong, surprisingly strong.
I remembered when I was a kid, my father would always bring me to his dojo to train and spar with other kids my age. Since then I always practiced, Improving my skills, but recently I haven't even exercised, I can't even kick as high as I used to, and some exercises I did easily back then are now really hard to do for me since I stopped coming to his dojo.
I just hope I can still remember the things I learn back then...

It's already dark. Looking outside the cave I saw a beautiful sight.
The grass plains now reflect the color of the sky, which is now darkish blue. You can see Fireflies dancing around, and the grass is waving slowly left and right.
I then looked at the sky... It was beautiful. I never have seen the sky so beautiful like this before. The stars... you can see them twinkle randomly. I was surprised to see such a view, and I don't even need a single candle to see anything, the earth already reflects the moon.
Looking at the scene for a while, I decided to sleep.

" you're weak! you need to practice more. You can't protect your mother nor anyone with that strength of yours!"
"do you think someone will save you if you ever get into trouble? NO! you need to save your self. Don't ever rely on anyone else, you only need yourself!"
"When you get old, you will be alone. But not if you can find someone you love, someone that you can trust, someone you can rely on. Your mother was that for me. I don't think I'm gonna live any longer than a year. Be a man and support your family, but don't ever think of never finding a woman for yourself."
"Strength is something everyone needs, and strength can mean many things. Figure out what strength supposed to mean for you"
I woke up...
I had this weird dream about my father.
I heard things I already forgot.
Just what is strength for me? I don't know, but one thing I know for sure is, my father gave it to me.
thinking back I wasn't able to protect and help my mother as my father said. I really feel sorry for that. But too bad I'm dead now, I can't do anything about it anymore. I just hope that my brothers and sisters will take care of my mother from now on. I hope that my mother and my siblings will live a longer life.
I need to move forward now too.
I left the cave and went outside, there I saw a bright morning.
[ Maybe I'm gonna keep practicing my strength and balance it for now, while still looking for a village. ]
I hope I find something soon...
Walking around, I saw a forest. This is the first time I saw anything other than this plain grasslands... except for those mountains I found yesterday.
I walked towards inside...
The forest has some large trees inside and some plants I have never seen in my previous world.
The atmosphere is also different from the forests I went to in Japan.
[ I guess I'm really in a different world... ]
Not long after, I heard something from the bush behind me. I can't see behind the bush because it was tall and thick.
Looking at the bush from a few meters I waited for anything to come out.
[ !!! ] what came out was a wolf.
The wolf has reddish fur and two long sharp fangs, It was quite big for a wolf so I don't think it's ordinary.
It came running onto me, It tackled me, and out of fear I drop on the ground.
The wolf tried to bite my arm but I instinctively punch its face.
I then also instinctively closed my eyes to the sudden shocked.
When I opened my eyes, all I can see was blood. I looked at the wolf beside me, it was already dead and its head is missing, I guess I blasted it off.
I looked at my fist, there are little pieces of meat sticking, and blood is dropping on it.
[ That was horrible.... ]
I never thought that I would kill the very first creature I see in this world... and I feel really sick after I killed it.
I looked at the body once again.
[ Ugghh... blood is still flowing from its neck... ]
I also saw one of its eyeballs which is crashed just beside it. I felt really sick and I wanted to throw up.
[ My strength really is horrible, I need to properly control it even when I'm panicking. ]
This is overkill...

After a while, I finally calmed down. My clothes are now stained with blood.
I decided to look for water, a river, pond, lake, anything where I can wash my self at. The right side of my body is dyed in red, if anyone will see me like this, they will surely be shocked and scared.
I continued to walk inside the forest and found a small lake later. I washed my self, I was feeling a little ticklish because I accommodated a large amount of dirt and sweat in my body, after that, I also cleaned my clothes.
After I finished washing my body, I waited until the sun dries my clothes.
I also tried to catch some fish to eat using my speed and strength. I remember when my father taught me how to catch one and cook it with the bonfire.
After a while, It was already past noon. I wore my clothes again.
I walked again, I sometimes try to run to improve control over my speed, and chop some trees using "Karate Chop" while doing so. I can now control my strength more, so I don't think it would be dangerous anymore, except maybe when I'm panicking.
Not long after I ran and cut almost a hundred trees -
[ Finally! ]
What I saw was a road made of cobblestones.
I was happy now that I can finally have a direction where I can go to.
[ now, where... where... where... should I go? ]
Is it left or right? well, I don't know but one thing is for sure, both sides of a road will sure lead to two different places.
I decided to go right, because right, is always right.
I then continued to walk but now I feel more enthusiastic.
I cannot now see the forest but I'm still as excited as ever.
After walking for a few minutes, I immediately saw a large gate between two large towers, surrounded by large walls.
