Chapter 15 - Lurked the Night on the False Bright Sun

She analyzed me from head to toe "So how are you feeling now?"

"Light as a feather. It even affects my process of thought. Now I know why you praised that asshole so much"

A mere human can't do this. This is only can be done if you're not a human, to begin with. The race status said Sarkhas instead of Human. So the resemblance proofed to be one of the hereditary traits from the creator of the Art itself, due to this body is one of his creations. Or as he said — his kin

Her usual cocky grin appeared "You might think that I'm a simp but I'm planning to claim my promise"

Delighted. I smirked "To punch him in the gut"

"Exactly!"

"You know that he might be hearing all of this right?"

"He might just creepily grin on our conversation"

I give my middle finger to the sky

"Fuck you Sarkha!!"

"Hahaha, enough of that. Now, what do you wanted to show me?"

I fetched the vines attached to the thunder scroll. Curious, I also planned to test my newfound abilities — or Art. Just when made a contact the with scroll, the stung of the electricity can be lessened by actively interfered with the cell that conducted the electric force into my whole body. With muscles enhanced by the blood pressure. I held the scroll open and showed it to her

"Read it loud!!"

"Hmm, Thunder broke the pain. Vein cracked with inner steel. The almighty destroyer who's unfathomable in the carnage of physical tampering, Raised illusion of one belief. The destroyed must be remade. The spears from above are the key. An outside source must keep channeling. The source of energy that can move the universe ... There is more but I think you should rest"

Urgh. I can felt my veins cracked by the pain, the Limit Overcharge painfully exhausted my brain. I threw the scroll to the ground after painstakingly held the scroll roller

She Smiled "Constant stress on the body seems like a no-no for using that Art"

Tired. I breathed in and out "So what do you think?

"Too obscure, it needs mana. I'm sure that you already thought about it"

"Yeah. You're right" Nothing to add here. it indicated that our mind is still aligned. at least for now ...

Later we tried our best to comprehend this 'Mana' but to no avail, as we stumbled many holes in every theory we made. even though I have some on my status, I can't felt it nor even known its existence on my body

We then feast on the leftover meat from last night like an orphan child on the slum. We didn't use any cooking method and consumed the whole meat raw until there is none, and we need to search for more. The two-meter and a half-sized deer left with no flesh. Every part of its body already has its purpose and we gladly planned to move out from this area

The sun rose from the east. We finally grasped the wind direction. With the meadow on the west

I grabbed the vine wrapped thunder scroll and the big deer skull shield we made earlier. We estimated the skull hardness to be able to withstand a car crashed at fifty kilometers per hour, even my full power blow can't even scratch it. I was lucky to aim for the neck instead of the head with that thick skull

Now, It's time to explore more of this forest! With high hopes to the east. Armed and ready, we ventured through the bizarre forest and its inhabitant. Except, there is no sentient life seen in the sight

The smartass brat asked, "You didn't do anything weird right?"

"Of course!! My innocent and naive self will never mess with nature!"

"I have a bad feeling about this"

No scary predator, No constant threat. It's peaceful here like it was some sort of sacred place. Back then on the first day. We were forced to storm our head for survival. This time, we can take the time we need to uncover the unknown.

Our mindless jog lasted for two hours. The stamina is no longer an issue as we micro-managed our energy intake and use. This is such a lonely morning to partake

But in our short journey. We found many weird things scattered throughout the forest

An old shack made from this forest wood, with no sign of life to examine. There is a broken bed and chair, a small memo with an incomprehensible symbol. not a single useful item founded. It was sad but now we know that there's a human or human-like activity in this world.

When we thought about it. This place does creep us out. something grand might happened in this forest before we arrived here. Excluded the old shack. The more we delve into the forest. We founded so many small humanoid statues. Every eye of the statues is hollow and blood can be smelled. Posed as if it was tried to ran from something to the west

"What in the world is this place?"

The brat poked her finger into one of the holes in the small statue's eyes "I hope that this isn't a human eye socket that I'm poking"

"Your sense of humor became more sinister in the span of my sanity"

"Can't lose one if I don't have one"

The exploration continues. We didn't need any map as we effortlessly memorized everything

A mountain can be seen. The tall trees are fewer here. We are already around two kilometers away from the meadow. Every step are counted

But right now, lies in front of us. The appearance of an infamous giant iron bird remnant ...

"How ..."

"It was a transportation airplane ..."

It almost turned into a fossil for who-knows a billion years might have passed. We got inside the airplane carcasses. Everything on the inside turned into dust in the slightest mere of touch. The seat, the pilot cockpit ...

"It's not even deteriorating. It's like it was preserved"

"... Let's get out of here"

Our minds are filled with anxiety. The hope of our long last past life might not even be recoverable at this point. Many theories struck our heads. We don't want any of those to be the truth

We got outside. Despaired

It then took the worst of a sharp turn

A good time to die

"This is the worst day of my life"

"haha, I hope we can outrun this thing"

The scent of rusted steel. We've got an important guest waited for us
