BOOM
Amon and Kiddo were able to escape from the stamp, but the damage they got was beyond them.
"Dumbass… don't look back" Amon slowly moved under a rock called Kiddo who was trying to look at the Elephant.
Kiddo turned his head and walked towards Amon and hid under the rock. They understood one thing, This Elephant could see them, but couldn't sense them so they just needed to hide… hopefully, it wouldn't destroy the whole forest…
ROAR
A big roar came from Elephant which made Amon's ears bleed… even Kiddo tried his best to close his ears.
The Elephant looked around and didn't see Amon and Kiddo so it started to fly…
Amon lost his consciousness on the spot. While Kiddo received a lot of damage.
A few hours passed…
Amon opened his eyes… he felt an abnormal throbbing pain in his head as if someone had ruthlessly beat him on his head.
"Ah… fuck?! Am I going to die? This is so painful!!" Amon cursed as he held his head.
Kiddo opened his eyes and looked at Amon who was in pain.
'This is the power of Mountain Flying Elephant… there is no need to worry, you will not die' he said to him, but Amon couldn't hear it.
After a long time Amon calmed down, and he could finally open his eyes…
"Sigh" Amon sighed in relief, he didn't die!
Kiddo was sleeping, it was almost morning right now, so Amon stood up and walked out carefully.
"Damn…" he saw there was not a single tree behind them, everything was destroyed… and this was the first time he saw the sky clearly.
"Hmm…" he smiled, he loved the endless sky with no presence of clouds, it was like a beautiful borderless blue gem.
Kiddo opened his eyes and looked at Amon who was in awe.
'What is it?' Kiddo asked as he also came out, he wondered what Amon was seeing in with that expression.
'This…' Kiddo was also shocked after seeing the sky and ground with no tree.
"I feel like I reborn," Amon said with a smile, the morning energy was running through his body which made him forget the pain he felt before, and Kiddo was silent.
After some time they looked for some water, the bottle made of leaves Amon brought with him was long gone.
'There no water in here… maybe we should go to the next territory'
"Yes…"
They started to run to the next territory which was not too far, they were tired but didn't care because their lives depend on this, if that Mountain Flying Elephant saw them again, they wouldn't know they would be able to escape alive again.
After running for a long time, they entered the next territory, which was ruled by Giant White Ants.
'You don't have to worry about Giant White Ants, I heard they will not come out in the morning' Kiddo said to Amon.
Amon nodded and looked around, he felt this territory had more trees than the last 2 territories and said "Then… wait, can we go out of this territory in that short time?"
'I don't know… we should try hard…'
"Damn… okay, let's take a small break, I need to recover" Amon understood they needed a long run, so it would be best to run in good condition than like this.
Kiddo also agreed both were pretty exhausted by the run, and they were not fully recovered yet.
Kiddo caught a few bests, they were more beasts here than normal…
'Because Giant White Ants wouldn't act in morning, and they will hide in night, that is why they are many beasts in this territory'
'Hmm'
Amon ate 2 beasts and their hearts, he didn't get any skill from them, and this was not the first time, some beasts wouldn't give any skill.
"Okay, no stopping, no matter what!" Amon announced hard
'Why are you shouting?'
"Well… I felt like it"
'Anyway, let's go'
They started running, and Amon used his low level speed skills. He got 3 of them and he used three of them again now, and Kiddo was mainly focused on his legs and speed, which was very rare for a Tough Lion like him. Tough Lions were mainly focused on strength than speed.
They ran, very fast to avoid many beasts, even though they knew they could kill them, they didn't want to fight now, escaping this territory was their goal.
Time passed fast and they came in front of another territory
"Ha… ha… we did it," Amon said with a smile, he was happy that they came here before it was night.
Kiddo nodded and they entered the territory.
'After this… we are free' Kiddo smiled, this was his territory, he knew almost everything here.
Amon was silent for a second and said "let's go to a pond or lake, I need some water"
'I know a place, let's go'
Kiddo and Amon went to the nearest lake, there was no beast near them.
"Why is this place so quiet…" Amon asked Kiddo after seeing the lake and drinking some water.
'I don't know, but don't think about it' Kiddo also drank water made both of them feel alive again.
After that they took some rest and resumed their way out, Kiddo took was leading, he said that going on their clan side would be easy because he knew where the exit was, but never did his father let him leave.
"But… since you said this… there should be some guards" Amon thought for a bit and said
'No… the exit is too big… they can't cover everything
'Ah, right'
In no time they came to the middle of the territory, another half was left.
'We need to be careful now, they are many of my relatives are from here' Kiddo said to Amon and he nodded, he was not afraid now, he got his speed. As everyone knew, Tough Lions were not that fast.
It was sunset.
Kiddo and Amon came at the end of the forest!
"Let's go!" Amon said with a smile as he could already see the bright light from the other side.
Kiddo also nodded and they came out with high expectations…
'This?'
"What the fuck is this?"
