Chereads / My Four Other Selves / Chapter 9 - The Big Fierce Animal

Chapter 9 - The Big Fierce Animal

He growled before turning around and moving a little further away from there. Zhang Yong who was now sitting on the top of the tree on a thick branch, smiled seeing him leaving, those branches and leaves around him were hiding his presence perfectly.

The oni moved away from the tree and looked some where else for him, he pushed some bushes around but still wasn't able to find him. A satisfying smile appeared on Zhang Yong's face but it soon vanished away when he saw one more Oni approaching the first Oni.

"What the?" He was looking at him with horror, "How come there is one more Oni? Wait a minute if there is one more does that mean there are more too?" Just the thought was making him more and more scared.

That Oni was exactly the same as the first one. Zhang Yong's eyes were wide as he started to panic seeing one more Oni there, even the first one was enough to make him so scared and now one more was there.

"Some one please wake me up from this useless dream. I swear I won't watch these types of horror movies again. But please some one wake me up."

He was just mumbling to himself when suddenly one of them looked up. Zhang Yong felt all the air being knocked out of his lungs. He held his breath as he tried to sink deep into the tree.

The Oni kept on looking there for some time when suddenly they started to move. Zhang Yong again got scared but those Onis just went away from there.

"Am I in hell? Why are there so many Onis around?"

He pulled his hair in frustration.

"Why is this dream still not ending?"

He was still sitting there on the tree not wanting to get down and encounter some thing more terrifying.

"I will just sit here until this dream will decide to end itself."

Zhang Yong made himself comfortable there on the branch as he pushed his body back, a big pout and frown was there on his face and his both arms were folded and resting on his chest.

He was just about to close his eyes when all of a sudden he heard a sound.

[ Time left : 2430 hours and 5 minutes ]

"Huh? What time?"

"What is going on now?"

Zhang Yong was again confused.

"Wait a minute! Why is this system still here in my dream?"

He rubbed his temples and started to think about his situation deeply. 'Why does this dream feel so real? I am starting to have second thoughts about it. Is this really a dream?'

He looked up and then to his surroundings.

"Where exactly am I?"

"Wait! I have an idea."

He paused and sat straight there on the tree branch.

"I can just try to open that system. If it appears then that means that I am in no dream and if it does not appear then that means I am really in a dream.

Zhang Yong praised himself for that intelligent idea of his and soon he was ready to practice that idea of his.

He took a deep breath and made himself ready for the next outcome.

"I just hope that it does not appear. I want this to be a dream."

"Don't worry Zhang it. Is. a. dream. A dream….dream."

He moved his other hand to his wrist, he closed his eyes.

"Here goes nothing!"

With that he finally touched his wrist like that rabbit ( Rosa ) told him and....

Zhang Yong touched his wrist like that rabbit ( Rosa ) told him and in no time the system was in front of him.

"Oh NOOOOO!" He yelled and looked at that system in horror,"This can't be true!"

His eyes again went on the surroundings and then again to his system, hoping it won't be there when he will look at it again but to his bad luck it was still there, he said to himself, "Does that mean every thing happening around me is in reality. I have already been transmigrated in this world."

The sudden shock made him tense his muscles, he wanted to run away from there but he knew he would get himself in more danger if he were to act rashly there.

"I am seriously doomed now. Those Oni." He gulped, "I will be dead in no time."

It took him some time to let his mind rest and let every thing register in his mind. But then he again realized the system was still there in front of him. He heaved a big sigh before again looking at it.

He wanted to get every thing in his mind as soon as possible.

"Huh? Why are there so many options?"

For a minute he looked at that blue screen in front of him, trying to think which option he should choose. He was even hesitant to click any of the options.

"I think maybe I should check the weapons first. Maybe I will find some thing useful there to protect myself."

With this thought he clicked the option "Weapons". He pressed it like if he were to apply a little more pressure it would break.

"What? That's it? I don't even know how to use these weapons. This system is so useless. Can't for once in my life I can get a useful thing."

He shook his head here and there, he wanted to cry at that moment.

"What should I do now? Should I get down?" He thought, "What if those things appear again? What will I do then?"

He kept on pondering over that matter for quite some time and then again determination filled him.

"No! I....
