Chapter 17 - Horned rabbits

More than one hour has passed, yet Rein is still following the single Horned rabbit that drank water unto the river. Rein tried to approach the Horned rabbit that is eating edible flowers and grasses near the river, to estimate how many meters can the Horned rabbit determine its danger signal.

When Rein tried to walk much nearer to the Horned rabbit. It hopped away sensing danger unto his surroundings. Rein then whispered to himself,

" Ten-meters."

Rein was gonna try to catch the Horned rabbit but it went underground. It was a small hole made by the Horned rabbits. As he gazed on the surroundings quickly, He saw that there wasn't just a single hole. There were more than a few hundreds of them.

Rein then sighed and said, "Checkmate." He then shifted his body and went back to the camp where the other unawakened was staying. It was night as Rein checked his watch, [6:24 P.M].

Birds and unknown flying animals start chirping along when Rein walks—Returning to his friends. He then thought of Vishan and his blueish ring started to emit a lighter blue light which led to the direction; to where his friends are.

As Rein was nearly approaching. He saw a fire. Probably a campfire that he's friends made. Rein then swept away the bush that his covering his sight and said,

"I'm back."

When Rein averted his gaze from the surroundings. His friends were busy, trying to build a tent with leaves. Building a table with a wooden log. They even made a comfort room using wooden logs that are scattered around.

Rein then gasped and shouted at the busy teammates,

"Are we going to live here?!"

As they found out that it was Rein. They then stopped working even Vishan who was carrying wooden logs—dropped his wooden log just to greet rein.

"Yo Rein!! So how's the lookout going?"

"Nothing much," Rein replied, it was just a terse reply but that reply made Derek angry.

"What??! Are you kidding me? What are you doing in the forest by the way?!"

"I was investigating, "Rein said to Derek who's gazing at him angrily.

"Investigating my ass! We are all working here with blood and sweat and yet you are just slacking off. Adventuring to the Deep forest!"

Derek was angered by Rein because he didn't try to help at building shelters.

Vishan then stopped Derek from being angry at Rein.

"Now, now. How about we should hear first what Rein has to say. "Vishan said to Derek.

"Fine,"

Vishan then called out everyone. They sat on the wooden log with the campfire in the middle. As Rein stared at the fire quietly trying to cast a fire element out of his palm. Vishan sat at his side. And he said,

"So any useful information Rein? —aside from what you are doing?"

Rein then chuckled, "Yeah, There is, and tomorrow will gonna be a big feast."
