Sam immediately took out his smartphone and opened its camera.
When Sam looked at his reflection in the camera, he noticed that all the burn marks over his face has disappeared and his face has become normal.
"I-I am healed. YESSSSSSSS...." Sam shouted in happiness but suddenly he noticed something else too.
"What the heck? I-I look younger," Sam spoke with a surprised expression as he looked at his face in the camera and observed that he really looks younger now.
His face looked remarkably refreshed, and the dark circles under his eyes also disappeared.
"I got younger, due to sucking out too much life force, huh...? I look handsome now..." Sam spoke as he touched his face slowly.
"I can only wonder, what would've happened with my body if I were to suck out all the life force from this forest," Sam spoke as he immediately turned around and left the spot at once.
'Greed's skill is dangerous... I felt it when I used this skill. The more life force I sucked out of the trees, the more my body got greedy, and it started acting on its own to suck out more life force from the trees.
I have to be very careful next time when I use this skill... Or I will age back to my baby form,' Sam thought.
Suddenly, He felt something wrong with his body; he was feeling refreshed and fatigued at the same time. His knees were hurting.
"What is this feeling... My body is feeling refreshed from the insides, but my stamina has gone to nil. I can't even walk such a short distance prop-" Before Sam could've completed his sentence, he fainted and fell down on the grass field.
Hours passed by, but Sam lied unconscious on the grass field without any signs of waking up.
He was lying right in front of a forest, and if any carnivorous animal saw his unconscious body, that would be game over for him.
48 hours later...
*Flick-Flick*
"Hmm...? W-Where am I?" Sam asked as he opened his eyes and noticed that he was lying over the same spot he lost his consciousness two days ago.
*Grrrrrr*
Sam's stomach was making diffrent sounds due to hunger.
"I am fucking starved..." Sam spoke as he gathered the last bit of strength, left inside his body and started walking towards the bus stop slowly.
After walking for about 40 minutes, Sam finally reached the bus stop.
He sat down on the bench and started looking towards the road... waiting for the bus to arrive. But, he couldn't keep his eyes open for even 10 seconds due to severe energy loss.
5 minutes later, a bus arrived at the stop...
*Psssssss*
"Sir, So you want a ride ?" The driver asked with a smile.
"Hmmm....?" Sam slowly opened his eyes and noticed that a bus was right in front of him.
Sam stood up from the bench and entered inside the bus, his legs going zig-zag.
Everyone inside the bus thought that sam is some drunk kid.
Sam swiped his card over the bus seat and it turned green from red.
Sam immediately sat down on the seat and went unconscious again.
17 minutes later....
"Umm... Sir ?"
"Hmm...?" Sam opened his eyes slowly and noticed the bus driver was standing right in front of him.
"Sir, Can you hear me ? This is the last stop, Sir. You have to leave." He said.
Sam grabbed the seat's handle and stood up, but due to the low energy levels and the Nil stamina, Sam couldn't even walk straight.
He fell down 3 times, in just getting down from the bus.
As soon as Sam stepped down from the bus, He noticed that it's night already.
'Food.. need Food.' Sam thought.
He then looked around and noticed that a restaurant is nearby. He immediately went to the restaurant.
*Ting*
As soon as he opened the gates, A classic ring sound came.
"I am sorry, We are closed." A lady around 70 years old spoke as she turned around and noticed that sam is already standing near the reception.
"Sir, We are close-" Before she could've completed her sentence, Sam whipped out his credit card and placed it over the counter.
"F-Food... A-Anything." Sam spoke in a slang voice.
"You new generation kids... Give me 5 minutes. Take a seat there...." The lady spoke with an disappointed expression as she went back to the kitchen and brought out a small plate of rice and curry.
"Here... This is my dinner but you can have it for 30 dollars." She said.
'Stripping me of off my money you old hag... But, I won't be able to find anymore food anywhere else at this time.
I have to compromise the money...' Sam thought as he took the spoon and started eating it.
As he ate more and more, his energy and stamina started recovering once again.
After eating the full plate, Sam felt energized again...
"Wooo... Now I feel Alive." Sam spoke with a smile.
"Here you go Alive guy." The old lady spoke as she gave Anon a bill of 30 dollars that only had a plate of rice and curry in it.
"Oh, thanks... Can you tell me the date ?" Sam asked.
"It's 23/09/2070..." The old lady spoke.
"Fuck... Two days !!!" Sam shouted as he immediately stood up from the table and exited the restaurant in a hurry.
'I have to get back home... Or my bitch mother would declare me fucking dead.
It's good that my house is just two blocks away from here.' Sam thought as he immediately started running towards his house.
